Came here with a large party on a Tuesday night. When I walked in, I was amazed by the expansive…read moremenu. They had every Mexican food item I could think of, including some American classics like burgers and chicken nuggets on the kids menus. Since I couldn't decide what to order, I asked the cashier what I should order. One of the chefs overheard this, and came to the other side of the counter and told me all about his special carne asada. Because of this, I ordered the California burrito with the carne asada. Before receiving food, the restaurant gave us 2 complimentary plates nachos for our large party, which was super nice. This place has the nicest service I have ever seen. Everyone here is very nice. The California burrito was huge! I split it into 2 meals because I could only finish half. Like the chef said, the carne asada was great. The ambiance is good, they have a salsa bar and many decorations.

Live very close, tried it, Solid!…read more I was hungry and a fish and shrimp taco are BIG! As their menu explicitly states, and they are priced accordingly, around 5-5.50 each. I got fish, shrimp, and a potato taco since supposedly that was good too, it was very crispy and flavorful, my favorite though is from The Corner in HB for a mashed potato taco ;) SHRIMP: think this was primo - shrimp felt warm, big, juicy, flavorful, there was hotsauce on it as the menu states iirc. Might consider getting TWO of these instead of the fish. FISH: solid! Comparable to the ensenada fish tacos in fullerton I think? Or maybe that one is slightly better, been awhile. Overall - solid spot, not the cheapest but the quality is good and they don't skimp on protein. Not as good as tacos los cholos but that's further away, this is next door and again - they specialize in different meats!

Man, have I been sleeping on this place! After the minor disaster that was Playa Baby, I decided to…read morego for some real Mexican food. This place has a wonderful selection of Mexican favorites to choose from. They are also a tad on the pricey side but I think that's just par for the course in this recession unfortunately. I ordered the shredded beef taco and one fish taco. Both of them were so delicious that I had contemplated getting two more- but I decided to just return on a different day and try some other things. The lady behind the counter was most helpful in answering questions and navigating me through their menu. They will hand you a whole bottle of salsa to use at your leisure which is just lovely! The salsa verde was one of the best I have ever tasted. I'm coming back here tomorrow, and bringing a friend.

this has been my go-to taco truck for awhile now, and every time i try a new taco truck, i always…read morefind myself coming back here! i love how tender all the meats are no matter which ones you get. my personal favorite is the al pastor, but i've also tried the suadero, cabeza, and more and have never had a bad taco! i love coming here on THE weekly national holiday (taco tuesday) since the tacos are about $1-2 each and the horchata is about $4-5. speaking of the horchata, it's always made well and perfectly sweetened without being grainy at all! i appreciate how they put the onions and cilantro on for me bc i get skeptical of other people's hygiene sometimes if it's self serve, so this really eases my mind. the salsas are all self serve (they give you unlimited cups) and each of them are yummy in their own ways! some of them are actually super spicy too so i'm glad they deliver the heat !!! overall, el toro de oro stays as my favorite taco truck!

Earlier this month I was in the Little Saigon area (Westminster) of Orange County in Southern…read moreCalifornia on a Taco Tuesday with family and discovered this food truck in the ABC Grocery store shopping lot on the intersection of Magnolia and Bolsa. Decided to drop in and was delighted to know their Taco Tuesday special is $1 street tacos for a select handful of 8 protein fillings and $2 for 6 other choices. Even their regular price is still very reasonable. There was definitely a line around 6pm but it moved quickly. Love that they also have a self service taco condiments bar and area on the side of their truck where you can top your food with the freshly sliced or pickled veggies/chilis and slather on various taco sauces to your heart's content. Especially loved that they use a rotating gyro style meat grill for some of their meats. I also noticed they had another truck/van parked nearby where one of the staff would go to replenish some of their supplies for their taco truck. What an efficient way to keep up with demand by having a mobile/secondary vehicle that you can use for storage of stock to keep up with the high demand. I loved all the street tacos that I tried: carnitas, fried fish filet, al pastor, carne asada. Flavorful and done right! Definitely recommend this spot any day of the week when they're open, but especially for their Taco Tuesday specials.

Looks like a pretty new spot for Mexican food in Santa Ana. The dining room and restrooms are new…read moreand clean and the food is moderately priced and great! Combo #2 - Tacos Dorado and Enchilada plate with rice and beans. This comes with a hard beef taco and a cheese enchilada. I upgraded to have chicken in my enchilada for an extra $1.50. The enchilada was saucy and cheesy and stuffed with huge chunks for chicken white meat. The taco was in a crunchy fresh fried shell and packed with shredded beef, lettuce and cheese. The dish came with so much rice that I couldn't finish it. I know it's a basic, standard dish, but they did it well with generous servings. Chips with Guacamole - They pour on the guacamole over the chips and there was plenty so that each chip had plenty of guac. The chips were lightly salted corn chips that were medium light thickness. Great if you are craving chips with guacamole. Enough to share as a side, or enough for one really hungry person to polish off along with a main dish. The restaurant staff was friendly and the food came out quickly and my dish was steaming hot. I will come back to try something else along with their horchata and jamaica drinks!

Just visited the new Los Grandes Originales in Santa Ana, and we'll definitely be back!…read more We had heard of the original location but never had the chance to visit, so we were excited to try this one. We learned that the owners here are the original cooks and siblings of the late owner of the first location, which made the experience feel even more meaningful. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted. Since it was our first visit, we took our time looking over the menu, and the cashier was incredibly patient and never made us feel rushed. We ended up ordering a burrito combo, a chile relleno combo, a hard taco and enchilada combo, two taco combos, and a few horchatas. The portions are definitely generous, and everything we tried was packed with flavor. The restaurant itself is clean, spacious, and has plenty of seating, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. While we were waiting for our food, one of the owners came over and chatted with us about the restaurant's history. He shared that after the original owner passed away, many of the longtime cooks and staff decided to come together and open this new location, continuing the recipes and traditions they had been serving for years. Hearing that story, along with the genuine warmth and hospitality we experienced, made us appreciate the restaurant even more. It's not often that you find great food paired with such sincere customer service. They made us feel like regulars from our very first visit. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, generous portions, and a family-owned business that truly cares about its customers, Los Grandes Originales is definitely worth a visit. Wishing them nothing but success!
