I ordered the three rolled tacos with rice and beans. Love the fresh guacamole, lettuce, tomato's & cotija cheese on top! The menu includes the following: tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas, enchiladas, tostadas, nachos, asada fries, combo plates, family pack (includes one pound meat, rice, beans, onion, cilantro, red or green salsa, flour or corn tortillas and liter of soda), catering (five or ten pounds of meat), breakfast plates and burritos. Meats to choose from: asada, pollo, alpastor, carnitas, deshebrada, lengua, tripa and buche. Nice, friendly, employees, great food, plenty of parking out front and in the back. Note; inside is a small seating area, however you can get it to go. Wish they were closer so I could visit more often!

For our road trip to Joshua Tree National Park I was looking for nearby eateries and found Kasa…read moreTaco Shop.  Kasa Taco Shop is in an interesting location inside Kasa Market.  Some benefits: there is a ready supply of meat and an excellent drink selection.  I picked a Yuzu sparkling water.  It was bubbly and had a bold yuzu flavor.  Loved it. Tacos were $3 each and 2 were a light meal.  If I was very hungry I'd want 3.  Carne asada was tender and I liked the flavor which had a hint of sweetness along with the beef flavor.  Flour tortillas were soft and I liked the mild flour flavor. Server was nice and efficient.

Wow! This place will give Casteñedas restaurant down the 29 Palms Highway some serious competition…read more I did their carne asada street taco combo plate and I am glad I did. Their style differs a bit from Casteñedas in that Casteñedas quick fries their double corn tortillas and that really adds flavor and a nice chew. La Caguama, on the other hand, keeps their double corn tortillas fresh. What was surprising was the beefiness of their carne. It almost tasted like pot roast--delicious and craveable. Their salsas are decent, typical, but uninspired. Still, this is on my radar, plus it's literally one block away from my new favorite place to stay in Joshua Tree/Yucca Valley the Field Station. No pic's, sorry HUNGRY.

We stopped by this restaurant after exploring Joshua Tree, and this was great to refuel. The best…read morething on the menu, in my opinion, is the horchata. It's $8 but it's a big container. It's made fresh everyday. The staff are all very nice too. We ordered the octopus plate, al pastor torta, a few birria tacos. The birria tacos were our favorites and we only ordered one at first but then ordered a couple more. You get a good amount of food when you order the dishes which is always nice. We even came back the next day just for the horchata. If anything, at least get that.

We recently visited Las Palmas and was really looking forward to a good meal, but unfortunately, it…read morewas a huge disappointment. I ordered the chicken tostada salad, and the avocado tasted old and off brownish color and I should have sent it back. The shell also had a stale flavor, like it had been fried days ago. My husband had the chile verde with beans and rice, and it seemed like very little care went into the preparation--it just wasn't enjoyable. Given our experience, I wouldn't recommend this place, and we won't be returning. After eating there, it wasn't surprising to see how empty it was during lunchtime. I honestly can't even give it one star.

We decided to sit down for lunch, and they had some pretty good deals going on for their specialty enchiladas: only $9.99 for two enchiladas with beans and rice. Hell yeah, dude! You even get to choose red or green sauce and shredded beef or chicken. It was absolutely delicious. My daughter and I shared an enchilada off of the children's menu. I've gotta say, our waitress was pretty freaking cool. She was super understanding of the fact that my child was frustrated because she was hungry, and she was very patient with us--which I appreciate, especially having anxiety in public. The cute little shop has plenty of seating, including kid-friendly options like high chairs and boosters. It's very clean and smells amazing! The food was out fast, hot, and delicious. The staff was friendly, courteous, and kind. Even the customers, who seemed to be regulars, were very understanding of the fact that my 10-month-old "chose violence" today. Thank you for hosting our lunch and being an amazing part of Yucca Valley! Guys, if you need a fast Mexican spot, this is definitely it. Enchiladas on point, rice on point, and the beans taste like you went straight across the border and got them from someone's abuela.

We came here one a Monday night and there were several tables occupied which is always a good sign…read more We grabbed one of the two remaining tables and while looking at the menu were given warm chips and homemade salsa which was really hard to stop eating, especially when you're hungry. Food wise, that turned out to be the highlight. Anyway, I ordered the El Guero Soecial: steak with cactus, and all the fixings. However when I ordered the steak "medium rare" I felt that it is at this point when the server should have told me that the steak is prepared in beef jerky-like strips, more appropriate for a fajita plate. But even for fajitas, they are served on the dry side, salty, with a texture more resembling leather than beef. It's not so bad when you combine it with the accompanying pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, rice/beans and wrap it into a warm corn tortilla. No lime sightings anywhere for some reason. Now, the cactus: maybe if you're a fan of Okra or any other slimy textured veggie, you might like it, but I just can't bring myself to enjoy what I would describe as a green pepper that was trampled over by a garden snail. But try this desert delicacy and judge for yourself. Finally, do NOT order the chicken wings. I paid $15 for six small, burnt, overly salted wings. Not sure what I was thinking. Mexican restaurants aren't known for chicken wings after all, are they. Great ambience, maybe try the tacos and enchiladas next time. That's all...

Decent local place…read more This place is located off the main road near a residential area. This is definitely a place where locals go to hang out. They have a dining area, a bar, and a hall where you can have a party. They offer standard Mexican dishes. We opted for the carne asada burrito. The rice and beans tasted good. The carne asada was not super tender and had a lot of fat in it. So maybe it isn't very good carne asada I am not sure. The drink I ordered was an old fashioned and it was strong. Service was great. I would definitely this place again and try a different dish. Solid 3 star place. Prices are excellent.

Okay, being totally honest, this wasn't the absolute best food of our entire Joshua Tree-Palm…read moreSprings trip, but a close 2nd. BUT it was definitely the biggest, most positive surprise when it came to expectations vs. actual quality! We landed in Palm Springs late in the evening and were starving on our way out to Joshua Tree. After a quick Yelp search for something open past 7-8pm, this spot popped up. We pulled into a super quiet parking lot and found this tiny little place. Looking at it from the outside, we honestly figured it would just be a quick, forgettable pitstop. Boy, were we wrong. For starters, the place was relatively full for a Tuesday evening! We ordered the duck confit nachos, the kimchi bulgogi sandwich, and the pony wings. Wow! Granted, our expectations were unfairly low walking in, but this turned out to be probably our second-best meal of the entire week--and we ate out every single day! It absolutely crushed it in terms of exceeding expectations. It also helped that we happened to be there on a Wednesday, so all the wines were half-priced! Unfortunately, since we weren't familiar with the area, we didn't know exactly how much further we had to drive to our accommodations, so we couldn't imbibe more in such a welcoming environment. (Missed opportunity, but safety first!) Oh, and definitely save room for dessert--their pie with ice cream of the day was delicious too! If you are passing through, do not sleep on this place. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area!

The young lady who served us was very sweet and understanding. We had a 2yrld with us and we requested extra pickles (cuz that's all that toddlers want).Eventually another staff member visited our table for some chit chat and had a laugh. We ordered 2 entrees and an app. Crispy chicken sandwich - the crispy coating slid off of the chicken thigh but still had some good flavor. The jalapeño ranch was expected to have somewhat of a kick but was more of a love tap. Imo, the crispy potato chips were a nice touch. Pretzel balls - excited for pretzels and cheese, the plate arrives at the table looking more like falafel than pretzels, they taseted burnt. The cheese they come with however, SPOT ON! My fiance had the Tiny Pony burger and stated the caramelized onions were top notch. Then she proceeded to scarf the burger down and say "it was alright"..... make it make sense. Overall, we will be visiting The Tiny Pony again in the future.

Came with pickled onions, a pickled jalapeño half and lemon. They were covered in a most delicious salsa and spicy too. They're piled high on 2 street taco sized tortillas each. So much I easily split them and made 4 tacos. I also had the freshly made chicharrones with the same spicy salsa. I believe it's habanero based. The place has great atmosphere. Diner on one side and dive bar looking on the other side. The diner side is dark and dimly lit, it's really cool looking. And they have different retro radios sitting on each diner table.
