If you're craving some good tacos look elsewhere. I knew it was gonna be bad when i saw them go the fridge and start reheating the meat but then i saw the prices...i was in too deep to back out and i regret it. Then you have to wait while they reheat the meat for your tacos. By the time you get your tacos the meat is over cooked and dry. It was good service but the food is simply not worth the price point...i guess we came blame inflation for that. read more

Nice and friendly service. Ordered the carne asada fries just under $15. Large portion that can be shared with two. Everything tasted solid. I liked how their salsa came in their own sealed custom packet. Parking is a little tight due to the small plaza. read more

Food was excellent, every dish we ordered had nothing but good flavor. A soon as you walk in they greed you with a smile and a warm welcome. Place is also clean at all times read more

You won't regret spending money eating here. This place is what I consider a "hidden gem". Family-owned, in a non-busy location, but the food provides good values for the money you spend. I had Birria tacos here every 2 days to satisfy my cravings, and they never fail in making delicious foods. The warm welcome you receive is genuine & authentic, making me wanting to support this place even more. read more

El Sauz Jr - Carne Asada Fries - Mexican Near Me - Anaheim, California

Small restaurant, but big portions! Came here on a whim with a friend after randomly looking for some good Mexican food around Anaheim. This place popped up with decent ratings, but what caught our attention was the portion sizes. Price is extremely fair and everything is definitely shareable. One of the best carne asada fries I've had. I also really enjoyed their potato tacos. Love that they also offer cheap scoops of Thrifty's Ice Cream in another window within the shop. They have a little bit of everything for everyone. read more

Very good Wet Burrito today. My order was ready and waiting for me. Packed very nice and forks and napkins included.

Small restaurant chain place was empty when we came in. Our orders were taken quick and was made by the chef fast. We ordered menudo, asada burrito and I got three tacos, pollo, asada and al carbon. Our orders came fast with a bunch of extra sides that you normally have to ask for such as extra lime, radish, sauces. The burrito had a lot more of white rice that I wondered and should have been Spanish rice? Tacos were satisfying but not the best as they seem to be oily and same as the asada burrito, the flour wrap was drenched in oil. All in all we got what we wanted and shy of spending more than $40 - oh well that's how high restaurant food is currently. read more

Good quick lunch , carne asada tacos great flavor they add a few extras to your plate made for a good cheap lunch !!

Their carne asada fries are bomb! They dont discriminate with the portion. One order you can share with 2-3 people.

Did I miss something... When did a fricken carne asada burrito become 15 bucks. I use to frequent this place. Burrito use to be 9-10 bucks.. god damn, I guess I won't be eating out for awhile. read more

First thing I notice about El Sauz JR is the service. A++ for that. Ordered online, but the cool wanted to wait for me to get there so that I would be able to take the food home freshly made. Second thing I noticed was the cleanliness of the place and how organized everything seemed to be. Lastly was the food. When i got home, the food was nice and warm. I ordered a carne asada taco ($2.30) fish taco ($2.30), and shrimp taco ($2.30), a chicken quesadilla ($9.09), carne asada burrito ($11.85), carne asada torta ($9.75) and side of fries ($2.99). Carne asada was a bit dry, chicken was a bit dry. Fish was moist and had good flavor. Salsa's were excellent and there's plenty of food for the price! I'll have to try them out again since El Sauz is down the street. I'm hoping this is a one off in the cooking department. Parking is sufficient but it's shared with with other business' in a strip mall. read more

I given this spot a chance a couple of times but the food is not good and the price for the quality of meat is not good and looked like meat has already been cooked a while ago then just reheating on the stove read more

INCREDIBLE,, so sweet & nice when taking my order,, BIG PORTIONS for a good price,, AND OMG their salsa was tasty !!!! New favorite Mexican spot damn read more

The Asada burrito here is fully loaded! Filled with savory Asada meat with just the right amount of rice and beans. This place elbow drops Chipotle into oblivion. The tacos are a good size too. If you live in the area, this place should be a must have. The owner is real nice as well. read more

Was craving some asada fries went here because it before a while back. First thing I noticed once I had already ordered my food was the chef touching my fries bare handed! But I still decided to give it a try once I got my food and headed back home i opened my food and seen the darkest guacamole I've ever seen,basically the last of it. The fries as well were tasted not cooked all the way. Waste of money ! read more

El Sauz Jr - Carne Asada Fries - Mexican Near Me - Anaheim, California

I've passed by this place a bunch and tonight I finally stopped inside for a late dinner for my husband and myself. The young lady who took my order was friendly. I mentioned it was my first time in and she let me take my time as I quickly passed over the menu, even though I knew I was probably just getting tacos. I ordered a total of 5 chicken tacos, $1.85 ea, and 2 carne asada, $2.00 ea. I asked for "everything" which consisted of diced onions, cilantro, limes, a sliced radish and grilled onions/jalapeño. The grilled onions really added to it all. The mild salsa was perfect for my tolerance level. This might actually be my new taco spot! It was not as quick as my usual place but the chicken tacos had SO much more flavor than the other spot. I'm almost not even mad that they forgot to add the cheese I paid $1.00 extra for on my husband's tacos. Almost. Cheese is $0.25 extra per taco. The husband and I agree we will return eventually. And perhaps we'll something other than tacos. We also ate our food too quickly for me to take any pix. Next time! read more

DO NOT RECOMMEND!! I arrived about 30 minutes before closing and you can tell they were beginning to clean for closing.. I was able to order my food and the cook began to grill the meat shortly after they scrubbed the grill with harsh chemicals. Once I received my Carne Asada Fries, I thought the sour cream was spoiled but my meat smelled so stinky- which might be from the cleaning solution!! The carne asada burrito that I also wanted to try was NOT good at all... I kept the burrito as is just to see their homecooked meal and it but it was disgusting... I will never eat there again. read more

5 stars for the Carne Asada fries but disclaimer that's the only thing I've tried here. This is my go to place for carne asada fries! Their fries are unlike your typical thin, frozen fries. They're slightly crispy but also slightly battered tasting. Comes with beans though so opt out if you're not a fan! They also add a little bit of a red sauce to the fries (that's not spicy). Their green salsa is SPICY and my spicy tolerance isn't too bad either but it's sooooo good. Excellent price point as well: 2 orders of carne asada fries was under $22 with tax Pro-tip: they can be quite busy so I usually order my food via phone 15 to 20 minutes ahead of time and it's always being packed up when I get there. read more

The food here was SO GOOD! I ordered a fish taco and California burrito and dang! Fish taco was so tasty one of the best I've ever had. The star of the show was the California burrito. It was the second best I've ever had. So much meat and they didn't add to many French fries thank god but yes this place was absolutely delicious I ate every bite. read more

The nachos still do not disappointment! They are still fresh and well served (bien servidos). The bummer is that you should expect and be aware your estimated time may get delayed. Call and order and the time they give you go and be there. 1) Because they MIGHT be ready and you wanna handle those ASAP (avoid soggy nachos) 2) If they aren't ready you may need to hang out and remind them or keep an eye out for them This place gets BUSY and it's because they do a great job with the food. So if you go it's a 50/50 chance it's ready OR prepare to chill inside and get scoop of ice cream (1.50/scoop) or mexicoke and wait for some yum nachos. read more

El Sauz Jr - Carne Asada Nachos :) - Mexican Near Me - Anaheim, California

Definitely a hidden gem. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend! The Micheladas was the best I had in awhile.

LOCATION: It's located in the corner of small strip mall next to Trio and El Rancho Meat Market PARKING: The lot is small, but it was easy to find parking. SERVICE: I had to subtract a star because I thought the girl at the front was being very passive aggressive towards me when I was ordering and then again after receiving my order. I noticed a few, previous Yelp reviews noted her attitude as well. THE WAIT: 20 minutes WHAT WE ORDERED: (1) Birria tacos ($1.60 each): My favorite Mexican dish! In every bite, you get notes of sweet, sour, spicy, and savory Mexican beef stew that's been slow cooked until the beef is tender and delicious. These birria tacos were so satisfying that I had to send my compliments to the chef! (2) Carne Asada Fries ($9): The fries were perfectly fried and seasoned. For the price, you're getting a generous portion, and I shared it with four people. We were practically full from eating one order of carne asada fries! I would come back for the fries. MAIN TAKEAWAY: For less than $2 a taco and $9 for a large order of fries, you can have such a great meal. I found this place on Yelp, and I'm so glad I was able to support such an underrated mom-and-pop restaurant. It's worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

Been coming here for years the food has been consistent in taste and it appears it's the same cook since I began coming here. I'd say for the West side of Anaheim this place is arguably the best for Mexican food. As for the Service it is always fast and again consistent. 10/10 read more
