Got the pastor burrito today. Friend got the asada burrito. They were very large. It was good but very greasy. My friends stomach hurt after eating it from all the grease. For the food i give 4 stars. But officially giving 2 stars cus they are stingy with their salsa. I asked for more, but they would only give me 2oz of green salsa for a burrito the size of a puppy. Stingy loses you customers. read more

I've eaten here about a dozen times and it's the closest to Tijuana dining you can find. My asada quesadilla was not fresh and not tasty. It was like eating meat raisins and some of it was crunchy. Not the good kind of freshly seared crispy edges, but the kind of crunch that develops from sitting in a heating tray all afternoon. Icky. My fault for letting my friend talk me into eating here. read more

I love finding gems. The moment I walked into the restaurant, the aroma from the kitchen sold me. This place may not be the prettiest, but the food is legit. The food is so delicious. I tried the three dishes below. I didn't see yellow cheese here, a sign that they DON'T lean towards American palate. This is Mexican through and through. Try it! It will not disappoint! Coming back next week with family. read more

If you want authentic street tacos, this is one great place to find them! It's a mom and pop kinda place with grandma in the kitchen making the whole place smell wonderful! I had a couple carne asada tacos that were outstanding; two warm tortillas piled high with meat, topped with fresh chopped cilantro and onions. And then a healthy amount of this amazing salsa. Sometimes we bring home extra salsa for our breakfast tacos or burritos the next day! Oh my, what I wouldn't give for this recipe! My handsome hubby had an el pastor tacos which looked almost as good as my tacos. He said they were very good, everything freshly made! We sat outside and enjoyed our tacos. It's a casual hangout with good food and cold beer. I could have sat there for hours, enjoying the breeze, good food and Many of these reviews mentioned the outside crew as "loud drunks" but we sat pretty close to them. It's a small group, having a drink and hanging out with family and friends. You know they're good guys because when Grandma comes out, one of them jumps up to get the door and it's the same when she goes back inside. It's a great little gem, almost hidden in plain sight on Tustin Avenue. You should swing by today and check it out! read more

I had lunch at Dona Meche Mexican Food #2 at 1981 North Tustin St. in Orange. After reading some of the Yelp reviews I decided to eat at that location. The manager & server was super nice and friendly and was very helpful in my ordering my meal. Entrée: I ordered: The Carne Asada Plate: A large thin cut of steak with; grilled onions, cooked pepper slices, white rice, refried beans, a small green salad and flour tortillas. A good combination of flavors. I drank and orange Mexican soda to balance my meal. They do not have dessert at this location. The very nice manager brought me two peached for my dessert. I thanked the very nice manager for letting me take some photos. Then I walked outside and took more photos. I drove off to find another review. Robert H. read more

We had the carnitas, chili rojo, goat in red chili and a bean & cheese burrito to top it all off. Impressed by the care taken in dishing up our meals. The portion sizes were good also. I will put this place in the top 3 Mexican places I'll go in future. Simple, delicious and authentic right down to the handwritten menus in Spanish. read more

I gave 2 stars because the homemade tortillas are delicious as to everything else my stomach immediately started hurting after eating their version of a carnitas taco I'm sure it was the immense amount of grease the salsa verde is good if u had to rate the bathroom I would rate it a -10 super yucky but at least it had hand soap lol this will be my first and last time ever coming here! Sorry not sorry! read more

Terrible, terrible, terrible! Beans were spoiled, rice was cold and clumpy. Lemons were were super old. Absolutely TERRIBLE! Do not eat here!!!! read more

Food is excellent! There, tamales of green banana leaf are to die for, super favorable and moist lots of meat.

Some fat lady working here gave me an attitude just because I couldn't speak Spanish. Food wasn't that great either

Me encaaaanta el pozole sabe como la de mi mamá todo aquí esta rico y todo servicio mejor

The best breakfast burrito. Most are dry. And lack balance. This had the right percentage of bacon to egg to light beans/rice. It rocked. Saw some others getting down on some mole. Def coming back. read more

Came here for breakfast after dropping my son off to school. The wife has been craving mole so figure I check this place out as my regular place doesn't serve it. The tacos were amazing!! For $1.39 you get a taco that is about as filled as it can get of flavorful, tender, and juicy meat!! I got 1 pastor and 1 asada taco and it's one of the best I've tasted. The mole has an amazing flavor and the drum sticks (you get 2) were fall off the bone tender. The decor could use a bit of love but then again, I'm here for the food. And for that - 5 stars all day. read more

I often pass by this restaurant and decided to try it today for a quick snack. My friend and I ended up going fatty and ordered al pastor tacos, a bean & cheese burrito, and carne asada sope. For $1 each, the tacos come with just the tortilla, amazingly seasoned meat, some cilantro, onions, and salsa - but that's all it needs to be amazing. The bean & cheese burrito was huge, and fell apart in that yummy way only legit Mexican food can. Use a knife and fork for this one. And the white cheese is really good, not the gross yellow American cheese most places use. Never had sope before, but now I know how delish it is. The carne asada was tender, lean, and seasoned so well. I love you, Dona Meche. I will be back! And they serve beer! read more

Worse Mexican restaurant. The grill looks like it has never been clean. A lot of drunk people. Awful food. My family got sick. Would never come back read more

Came here for tacos, I was charged 10cents more than what was on the menu price. The place was super dirty and nasty. I don't think I'll be eating the tacos. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I'm surprised it's still open. I'm sure the only reason, is the locals. read more

First time and last time, no flavor on my menudo...will never eat there ever again. to many flies probably not an A or B on cleanliness 2 thumbs down. read more

This is probably the most disliked restaurant I have ever been too. Ordered a menudo it tasted old and like if it had gone bad. Gave me food poison. I do not recommend the place. read more

Went on a breakfast burrito fix the morning of July 4th. As u can imagine most places were closed for the holiday. I cruised down North Tustin Blvd and found this gem in a small strip center. I ordered 3 carne Asada and egg burritos and told them to make em the way they'd like em. These burritos were HUGE and $7!! I fed 6 people that morning- only ordered for 3. Great breakfast burritos, very lovely cashier and the chef was awesome. Check this place out! read more

Never again. The carne asada tacos gave me food poisoning, and tasted cold and cheap going down.

I wandered in to grab a quick lunch to go and I ordered the enchiladas with mole to go. I was just blown away by how perfect they were. The mole was thick, scrumptious with a nice kick. I only get to Tustin every few months, but I may have to go sooner to satisfy my craving for the mole. The restaurant itself is very simple order at the counter, basic vibe, but the mole is elegant and authentic. read more

Dont eat here. I wanted really bad to like it but food was very off. I got a lengua taco which was very soft and smooshy, unlike anything I've had ever. Also, tried the chilaquiles which were all soggy and smooshed no tortilla chips to be seen. read more

WORST MEXICAN FOOD/ PLACE EVER.First of all I don't enjoy these guys washing cars in front of the restaurant where I eat food. The lady was so rude and their just a bunch of drunks being loud and BTW the food was honestly cold and nasty... I will never been going their again read more

Good food, but didn't make my order for pickup even though I called ahead. Even though they said they would do it! When I got there, their explanation was that sometimes people call in orders and then never pick them up. Well yeah, but all restaurants have that problem. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE!! the food is gross I'm 100% Mexican and I hate to talk shit on my Mexican food but this place man its something else it's all left over from the days before I went there twice and both times there was some drunk asses being loud and obnoxious definitely not a good place to go enjoy some food they are way overpriced for crappy food the beans are old the carne asada is not even cooked on a grill just plain horrible they need to clean up that place I've been to some better places and have better food in the ghetto of Mexico so unless you like nasty food dirty ass tables and drunk people yelling your fucking ear and being stupid that would be the place for you but I rather take my ass to Jack in a box and get 99 cent tacos anyday read more

To start we were greated to the place without a smile by the cashier , we ordered right away and wait 25 mins to get 2 tacos and 2 sopes and water , the tacos were a combo , when we get our for my tacos was no combo and it has spicy , i cant eat spicy food at all , okay we wait another 10 more mins , i got my food and it was really good but we didnt get our water , when we paid the cashier told me , oh i didnt give you your water [ smiling ] we paid and never got our water... really bad service but the food is good read more

Tacos are awesome!! I grabbed 2 carne asada and 1 al pastor. The asada was flavorful, but I definitely preferred the Al Pastor (bbq pork). Highly recommend the Pastor. Can't wait to go back. read more

I ordered a lengua burrito. The lengua itself wasn't bad, but I noticed some lengua bits were pink in the inside. My issue here is that the Mexican rice was very undercooked. How can you screw up rice?? I still ate the burrito because I was on my lunch break and I was super hungry. read more

I only have good things to say about this place! However if you are the type of person that refers to a culture other then your own as "ghetto" you will not enjoy this place and you will be better off going to el torito or better yet taco bell. The service here is authentically Mexican, case and point I went in there and asked him if the fish in the fish taco is grill or fried. He told me its grilled and but must have seen the look on my face and knew that I wanted it fried. He says to me why you want it fried? and I say yeah if you could and he tells me no problem! and tells the cook something and Spanish and she gets to work prepping my fish. my girlfriend ordered the carnitas torta. The torta and the tacos were awesome. I washed my food down with a modelo especial and my girl did a michilada. I am normally not a michilada type of guy but theres was actually pretty good. To top it all of all of that food the total came to 15 and some change. I enjoyed my first visit so much I went back again exactly one week later I was more observant this time and saw that they even have a small bar in there with about 8 beers on tap as well as tall boys and 12 oz beers, both domestics and imports. My girl did the asada torta this time equally as good as the carnitas on we had one week prior. This time I got the chicken enchiladas with red sauce. Normally I feel like most enchiladas at other places are drowned in cheese in an attempt to smother a lack of flavor in the sauce and filling of the enchiladas. Here there was a fair amount of cheese and even some cream but the star was really the sauce it was not runny and thin like most places it was a bit thick and was full of flavor. I cant stop thinking about them. Hands down the best I have ever had. To sum it up this place has a ton of great food, a multitude of beers all for a great price, fantastic customer service the kind you can only get in someones home, and to top it all off they stay open late and there is never a line or a wait! do you self a favor check it out you will not be sorry. read more

I've lived in the area 20+ years and have driven past this place many times but today I stopped to try it out. I was immediately greated by Jose, he was very friendly and offered his recommendation for their Mole Chicken dish, it was delicious! honestly, one of the best Mole's I've had. I also had their Horchata which I assume was homemade, it too was very good. Lastly, they have some spicy peanuts for sale in small bags at the counter which are very good but VERY Spicy! read more

Came here for the first time because I wanted street like tacos .. unfortunately I dont know where to get street tacos here in Orange .. :( but we tried this restaurant because it was close to home and the only place open .. I'm very selective when it comes to my tacos . So I ordered 1 asada and 1 lengua (beef tongue) the asada wasn't bad .. Personally I felt like it had a bit too much pepper but still good ... And 1 lengua .. the lengua was well cooked and well seasoned .. my tacos were stuffed with meat ... Delicious ! We got there a bit before closing but even then the people didn't try to rush us neither were they mean or rude . They were very friendly and were very courteous and polite. Definitely will go back next time I crave some lengua tacos. !!! read more

Carne Asa Taco's here are the Bomb!!!! My usual spot is Taco Boy (Anaheim), but it is a little too far at Lunch Time. Found this place after getting a Hair Cut @ Fifty-50 Barbers. The burritos here are bigger than Taco Boy's and Taqueria De Anda's and only $5. Good Food. Diffidently recommend this place. FryWeezie!!! read more

Sometimes you get lucky trying little hole in the wall places. I walked in with my daughter and we walked out 30 seconds later. Ay carumba! Everything about this place said don't eat here! I was truly disgusted. A definite Methinks not! read more

I came here looking for Authentic Mexican food and indeed is what I got, but the food did taste old, like it had been sitting out for a couple of days. When I pulled up and parked there's was people working on their cars right outside the restaurant??? And not to mention it not being the cleanest place either. My experience was topped off by the rude cashier that looked at me like I was some type of foreign person who didn't belong in the restaurant lol needless to say, I will definitely not be coming back here again. read more
