    Great stop before heading to Mexicali. The place is clean and has everything here. They have clean restrooms as well. The clerk and staff was very friendly. This is our go to for all your needs. We had a quick shot of tequila to dedicate my friend's father who passed away, a tradition before heading to Mexicali.

    3 rolled beef tacos and it came with rice, beans, cucumbers, salsa sauce, and all the toppings.

    I got the 3 rolled beef tacos and it came with rice, beans, cucumbers, salsa sauce, and all the toppings (lettuce, sour cream, guac, green salsa). Everything was delicious and the service was quick and friendly! I was very surprised considering this town was kind of in the middle of nowhere but I am very happy that I came across this place and tried it. I would definitely come back again! PS. I got confused because I was looking for El taco Loco but this actually turned out to be it! They have two yelp pages so the other location is not correct on the maps.

    Wow,,love this place 24 hour food,so yummy..Store sells fresh meat,produce among other things,,yes it over priced it is in middle of nowhere SoCal. Has truck parking pot holes but manageable...Will eat here again

    2 cabeza tacos on the top & on the bottom there is 1 pastor (bottom) and 1 asasa (top)

    Your best bet of food around town at that's open at 9:30pm since there's not much around. They literally have everything, sandwiches, burgers, Mexican food, etc. This place is located in the convenient store of the gas station. The store even has a mini grocery section of veggies and meat! Literally anything you would need they have. We ordered 4 tacos - 2 cabeza, 1 asada, and 1 pastor. The cabeza and asada were delicious. The cabeza was very soft which was perfect. It could be a little saltier though but still overall delicious. The pastor meat was a bit hard though, didn't feel fresh. Overall everything else was great! They give you enough hot sauce / salsa and YouCam even ask for more!

    I was staying at the Love's truck stop in Westmoreland, Ca. This plate is 6 beef rolled tacos, freaking amazing

    As a truck driver, sometimes you just want a tasty dinner at the end of a long work day. Today I was in a taquito mood and I found this Mexican restaurant inside of a gas station and the food is well priced and very tasty and gourmet.

    I'm really glad I stopped by here yesterday after being re-routed off the I-10E due to the bridge that collapsed.

    Was craving Mexican food while in town and found this lively spot on Yelp. And boy am I glad I…read moredid. This place is best described as a trendy, somewhat upscale Mexican restaurant. The ambience is awesome, dimly lit with lively music bumping. Not only is the environment lively, the food and drinks are AWESOME. I sat at the self seating bar as I was dining solo. The bartender, very friendly guy, took my order. Forgot his name but he is a good looking guy, which sort of fits the upscale scene. Every table gets complimentary salsa tray which I presume has avocado salsa, verde, mocajete, and limes. The salsas were DELICIOUS. I do wish they gave some complimentary chips along with it. Everything I ordered: Carne asada burrito, substitute beans with rice - 9/10. Was very delicious especially when accompanied with the salsas. For the drinks: Oaxaca Old Fashioned - 10/10. I love old fashioneds and they nailed it here. Instead of whiskey, they use mezcal which was delicious. Agave Spritz - 10/10. Mezcal with prosecco. Fantastic. No words. The only thing I would recommend to the restaurant is including prices of the cocktails on the menu. After finishing eating I had no idea what the damage would be but it turned out to be very reasonable, $13 per cocktail. I wish I gave this place a shot earlier during my work trip, but anyhow if I am ever back in town, this is in my highly recommended list of restaurants. They also had one projector screen showing the World Cup game. They also have Happy Hour 3-6 PM. Parking is plentiful, shared with the rest of the plaza. Would I come back? You bet.

    The 3 starts is a little unfair, because the place is completely incredible the music is great the…read moreambiance is amazing their waiters are print cordial savvy and bilingual... sadly my food wasn't a 4 stars or 5 stars ordered the arrachera burrito and I'm going to say it was at best a 3/5. However I went with a friend who ordered a santo chile (or something) and the plate looked delicious. Their queso fundido was the best part of my experience combined with the Tamarindo agua Fresca. Apologies did not take a picture. I will update as I want to go again before I leave town.

Service was amazing, so quick to come out with fresh chips and salsa (FRESH! as in they made the chips in-house... rare trait to come by these days IMO). Quantity of food was incredible. I can't speak for the menudo (dad got this) or for the 3 egg platter (not really sure why my mom got this) but $16 for a carne asada burrito as well as the beans, rice, and veggies on the side was such a steal. Especially in Anza Borrego. I would've thought it would maybe be more expensive since it probably costs a lot to bring out the best ingredients in the desert but somehow they have it all figured out. The carne asada burrito meat was top tier. Smoky flavor, soft with charred edges, so flavorful and overall the quantity of the burrito was way more than I was expecting. Lastly, I'm just so happy my dog got to sit outside with us. They have a shaded patio with a couple tables. I think other pet parents followed suit, as this seems to be a hit for dog-friendly spots here in Anza Borrego. I'd highly recommend. What a great find by me. Go me!! This is truly a hole in the wall that needs more recognition. You won't be let down!
