They check on your table a lot, which I appreciate. The food was also fantastic! My 17 year old daughter can be difficult to go out with at times since she has anxiety issues and is a little picky,but our servers both times we have been there were very patient with her. The spinach quesadilla is her favorite. Every week she wants to go back because the experience is just that good.

I thought I have ever reviewed this Mexican Bakery and Taqueria establishment, but I could not find…read morethe listing in my Yelp reviews. Oh Well. Came here for Lunch with Mary on Saturday March 30th 2013. This establishment offers Mexican bakery, and some of Mexican food, that includes, Menudo, Smothered Burritos, Tacos, Tostadas, Tortas and the House Specials to name a few. You make your order at the counter. The lovely lady who takes your order will then send your food to the table where you will be seated. There are a few seating available in this establishment. The service was prompt and the food came out hot. I cant recall what Mary ordered but these were the items I ordered this afternoon : First Round : 1 Cabesa Taco 1 Lengua Taco Second Round : 1 Carne Asada (Steak) Taco 1 Tripa Taco I decide to order them separately coz I prefer to eat my Tacos hot, hence Round 1 and Round 2 respectively. Each Round Order cost me with tax $3.58 respectively. My total lunch cost was $7.16. The flavor was there but it does not WOW me as much as other Taqueria in town etc etc. If I am not mistaken, the pricing of each Taco that I order was between ($1.50-$1.80). As with regards to the portions of meat in each Taco, it was just A-OK. The lady who took our order also offer us 2 bottles of Salsa, one of Green and the other was Red. I prefer the Red Salsa or sauce coz its more spicier than the Green one. I so wish they could provide more options in terms of Salsa bar in which this establishment does not have. Nevertheless, I DO NOT MIND returning to order other stuffs with Hubs, when schedule permitting. Perhaps from there, my review might differ. @63/2013

First thing I will say is the taco is on the small side but makes up for it in the packed flavor in every bite. The smothered burrito was OUTSTANDING from start to finish. It was so huge though I had to fight to finish it. For light eaters they'll need a to-go box or can share it. Definitely a gem for Aurora.

TL;DR Serviceable food, shady pricing, do not recommend…read more After some errands off Yale Blvd, we wanted tacos, so I looked for new spots along the route home and found La Gaviota on the map. Didn't check reviews before ordering, just the menu. I'm fluent in Spanglish and had no communication problems from the lady taking orders and apparently running the show. No attitude either. She seemed friendly and deliberate. I'm also not a xenophobe. Go figure. She didn't have any change in the register (see other reviews), but spotted me a few pennies. Gracias. One reason we picked La Gaviota was variety. We sampled asada tacos along with a gordita adovada and a pupusa with asada and cheese. Regardless of shell, each item did the trick. My favorite was the pupusa, but again, there were neither slouches nor standouts. After looking at the "menu" link on their webpage, I smiled at the prices. It was like hitting Federal Blvd in 2011. $1.89 for a taco? Yes. I chose to call instead of ordering online. Didn't look at the online order link. Big mistake. The prices charged me match the "online ordering," not the menu. They're much much higher. The website menu says $2.99 for a gordita adobada. Online ordering and my price? $6.31. More than double. Unacceptable. There are no prices posted on the restaurant menu boards to break the tie. Good thing I had some extra bucks. My total surprised me. It was not quoted me at the time of ordering. Seamless. I won't go back, even if the food is ok and Hanlon's Razor may object. One star.
