    I've been here a few times for lunch, and always enjoy the food! It's pretty heavy but SOOO delicious! A Mexican Panda Express. The people working are always really generous with their portions and making sure you get fresh food too! The inside has a few tables to sit at. On this particular visit, I decided to try the Chinese burrito which is just a make your burrito. I added vegetables, and sweet/sour chicken. It was awesome. The lo-mein is always really good here, and the chicken too! I definitely recommend giving this place a chance, especially if you're looking for some yummy comfort food.

    I placed a pick up order using their online website, I also got a text when my order was ready which was convenient. Once I got home I noticed there were jalapeños on the chicken which I didn't order. It was very spicy, overall the lo mein and fried rice were great!

    Definitely just a glorified Panda Express with a more confusing menu. All the items in the pans are clearly trashy. My pineapple chicken was garbage. They were out of egg fried rice at noon and the noodles were soaked in soy sauce. Lucky I only wasted $5.99.

    Was a little hesitant about this Fusion, but it was absolutely delicious! I was craving some spicy noodles and this dish hit the spot! It is kind of a setup like Panda Express with the bases and entree options. Customer service was great! I got half fiery lo mein and half rice for my base, then jalapeno chicken and orange chicken for my two on trades. It was enough food for probably a few meals for me but it was so good I couldn't stop eating it!

    I was recently in the same plaza and saw this place and wanted to try it out as I was a bit indecisive on lunch. A blend of Chinese and Mexican food served fast was ideal. I decided to go with the Combination that included Orange Chicken & fried rice & a carne asada street taco. I thought to do a Burria taco as they had signage they won best Burria posted around. It wasn't part of the combo and I had a budget in mind so I figured this would make me return for another visit. The staff member & service was great! There was the tail end of Orange Chicken in the pan and he had the cook make a fresh batch so I didn't mind the short wait. I also decided to add a spring roll to the mix. Overall the food was good. When getting one of the combos, mine was served in a bento-style box (nice size) but I think it's to help with the portions & they were a bit small to my expectations. I'm used to having my Chinese dish served over rice but they were separated. Not a deal breaker, but not what I envisioned. They were offering a free can soft drink with a combo purchase so it was a bonus. I definitely want to try the Birria Tacos & Spicy Orange Chicken. I got some friends who I'm sure will do the Ramen bowl so we'll make it an event!

    So we came here for date night! This place is amazing! We got the Spicy Orange Chicken and who doesn't like things a little spicy! It was so good! I got the mushroom entree that they had, it was so good and so fresh! I had the regular Lo Mein and Janna had the Spicy Lo Mein, that was the only thing that went wrong with our visit, I missed the spicy Lo Mein. This place is legit, if you are close by, you gotta try it!!! We will definitely be back!

    Great staff and delicious food. Clean restaurant. Menu is easy no difficulty choosing.

    #2 - QUESABIRRIA MUNCHIES PLATE
    Bhavana G.

    I found the concept of the restaurant interesting, but there is room for improvement. My group ordered the Birria Ramen Duo and two Quesabirria Munchies Plates, with sides of spicy orange chicken, salt and pepper shrimp, and pollo peño. Upon arrival, we were greeted, and the man behind the counter gave us a lengthy explanation of the combos, but we still felt a bit confused. The menu could be simplified, especially with choosing the sides and meat for the tacos, considering it's a fusion place. However, the man helped us choose everything, which was fine. If it had been a different employee, I think we would have had a hard time. The Birria Ramen combo was the best out of everything we ordered. The Chinese food tasted Americanized, similar to Panda Express. The spicy orange chicken wasn't spicy and was too sweet; I couldn't eat more than a few pieces. The pollo peño was the best of the three sides we ordered. They were out or running low on a few sides, including the salt and pepper shrimp, but they made some fresh upon request, which I appreciated. The Mexican food here is much better than the Chinese food. The quesabirria tacos were the best item on the munchies plate, and the consommé was alright. Overall, I felt the flavors were lacking for the price I paid.

    Walked in around 5 pm, first time here. The manager was really friendly, explained the menu thoroughly, even gave me a sample of the pollo pina, which was yummy! I ordered the Street Taco Munchies plate, hubby got fried rice and birria. Food was delicious and fresh. I finished the whole plate! LOL The restaurant is located right next to Subway. There was lots of seating and the tables were clean. They also offer halal options, if that's something you're interested in!

    Do you have vegan options? If so what and do I have to ask for anything to be removed? Your food sounds amazing.

    I did see a few vegetarian options for Chinese food like mushroom and eggplant stir fry but I don't know about vegan options

The service however, has been a miss all three times we've been in. The location is large so maybe they just need to add to their team and do a little additional customer care training with everyone. We came in Saturday afternoon to a small lobby area where a gal was already waiting to be sat and when the third group walked in that lobby got even smaller. We waited for about 5 minutes for the hostess who came off cold and unbothered in leaving customers waiting as the other team members took notice of the filling lobby with no one checking in to let us know we'd be assisted soon. The hostess proceeded to tell us she'd be seating us outside, no offer of sitting inside at all and not once did she acknowledge her absence or offer any sort of greeting, not even a smile. When you're the first person the customer interacts with at business I feel it good practice to create a welcoming atmosphere that represents the space you're entering. Especially a place like this that is known for a fun, lively atmosphere. We were sat outside and our waitress was very sweet and got us taken care of with water, food, and drinks pretty quickly. It was a lot cooler than expected on the patio which was awesome, as I was worried about sitting outside when it was 104. Great job with that Mexicano! But once we got our food our waitress stopped by to check in once and we didn't really see her until the end of our meal after that. No refills on water or check-in to see if we wanted additional drinks (which I feel like happened the last time we were in as well). There's a gentleman with a tiger tattoo on the back of his neck who stops in at some people's tables to check in and have chat, he's never stopped in with us.. it all just seems like the customer isn't a priority at this restaurant. The food is delicious, the drinks are great but for the prices, I want to feel more valued. I want to have that fun experience of going out for drinks in a vibrant high-end cantina where you feel connected with the staff. We'll go back but I would really love to see a more engaged customer support team.

The nachos ended up being the star of the night. They were loaded, flavorful, and very satisfying. There was plenty of food and they were more than enough for both of us to share. My husband ordered the burrito and finished it pretty quickly because it was on the smaller side. After that we both ended up just sharing the nachos and we were completely full. Since this was a delivery order I cannot speak to the dine in atmosphere or service, but the food was packaged really well and everything arrived intact and still fresh. Nothing was soggy and the portions held up well for delivery, which I always appreciate. The nachos were definitely the highlight and something I would absolutely order again. Next time I would actually love to stop in during the day and try it in person so we can explore more of the menu.

    I ate here the other day so figured I'd leave a review…read more First impression when I walked in was wow - this place is empty. It was clean, the staff responded quickly to me, but I was the only person at lunchtime on the restaurant side, and there were only two people on the bar side. Despite that it was loud. They need sound attenuation, My server was prompt, and freely shared her menu favorites when I asked. Sadly I'm not really a mole fan, her recommendation, but did try the enchiladas divorciadas. First the chips and salsa... the salsa was basically puréed tomatoes. No heat at all. Just some salt. I asked for something spicier and the server found me some habanero salsa. That was tasty, but it probably had very little habanero in it. Again, no better than a low-med heat. I grew up across the southwest so to me that was disappointing. The enchiladas? I really wanted to like this place but honestly? It was unseasoned boiled and shredded chicken, wrapped in a raw / untoasted tortilla. And drowned in some that was not enchilada sauce. The red sauce tasted like tomato sauce. I'm used to red sauce being pepper based. The spicier and more roasted the better. No pepper discernible. The green sauce tasted like it had a hint of green Chiles but mostly tomatillo. Also boring but better than the red. Neither was good. I ate it, I was hungry and it wasn't greasy, but... this was a midwestern spice-hating simulacrum of an enchilada. No bueno, demasiada aburrida. So to sum it up; decent but slightly loud facility, wonderful server, and I would say forgettable food but the reality is it was unforgettably boring.

On our most recent visit,…read morewe ordered the Pueblo Alto Burrito with added guacamole--a carne asada California-style burrito--and it was absolutely fantastic. My wife can be pretty particular when it comes to carne asada, so she was a little hesitant when I suggested we share it. After a few bites, she couldn't get enough! The carne asada was flavorful, tender, and clearly high quality, and the burrito itself was packed with great ingredients and balanced flavors. The added guacamole was the perfect finishing touch. As much as we loved the burrito, Espo's has become a go-to spot for our family because of their Taco Tuesday special. Their 10-taco plate for around $12 is an incredible value, especially for families. We love that you can mix and match between carne asada, carnitas, ground beef, chicken, and shredded beef, making it easy to get something everyone will enjoy. The restaurant also has that fun, authentic hole-in-the-wall feel while still being a well-established local favorite. It's the kind of place that locals know and love for good reason. If you've never tried Espo's, I highly recommend giving it a shot. Great food, great value, and a true Chandler staple.

They offer a nice self serve topping bar that includes a generous selection, three sauces, pickled red onions, cabbage, lettuce, limes. Freshly made corn tortillas give the tacos a home made flavor. Although the tacos are small, sharing 10 provided a satisfying meal for us. They have table inside and on the patio. We opted for the patio as it was nice weather.
