    Rotten avocado

    Very disappointed to see the food they gave my elderly mother. We usually frequent this location for their carne asada burritos, but today for the first time she ordered 4 shrimp tacos, & every piece of avocado was rotten. I called the location & got hung up on. There is no way to mistake a rotten avocado. They knew the whole avocado was bad when they sliced it open & served it to her anyways.

    Wet Torta with suadero.

    Still getting a 5-star rating from me. Really nice staff and really good food. It's well worth the parking hassle. Portions are big and prices are reasonable.

    These are the Carne Asada nachos

    I wanted to leave a review for the employee named Miguel. I did a phone order for Carne Asada nachos and because of traffic my order got really soggy and Miguel was kind enough to remake my order for me and put my chips on the side! He did not give me a hard time at all. I really appreciate that. I had a long day and was just looking forward to my dinner. I haven't had taco llama in a long time and I am just appreciative of this customer service!

    Cannot wait to eat....soo hungry!!

    Here we are more than 10 years later and we still love this place hands down!! The food is always tasty and freshly prepared!! The only thing would be nice if they had in house delivery or other delivery services. We still love the food!!

    Great local taco spot! Staff is pleasant and food made to order. Phone orders are accepted too.

I would stick with either just Chile mango margarita or Chile pineapple margarita, not both flavors together, you couldn't taste any of the flavor. The patio door and the front door should be closed or put some kind of air condition fan because there was a lot of flies flying around. Doesn't queso fundido comes with chorizo? I was charge extra for chorizo. It was good. The enchiladas were tasty but they added too much sauce and cheese on top. My son loved the rib bye steak tacos. The carne asada with a chimichuri sauce on top was delicious. I didn't want rice and beans so i ask for a side salad. Was charge extra for the salad but it was good. It was pricey

Came in last night to celebrate a friend's birthday (they have happy hour all day Mon-Wed) and was pleasantly surprised. My friends started off ordering the HH guava margaritas, which they enjoyed. I ordered the coconut margarita (not on HH) a must !!!! Not overwhelmingly sweet and tasty!

The steak a little well done for my liking. Enchiladas verde: 9/10 great portion honestly enough for two to share. Rice and beans were okay. Beans a bit salty and rice was a bit bland.

When we got there, there was a DJ playing 80s/90s throwbacks. It was good music and vibes, but it was quite loud, we could barely hear ourselves speak. Luckily he wasn't there too long, as brunch-time was over. We ordered Mango margaritas, chips & salsa, birria tacos, tinga taquitos, elote, and chicken enchiladas with green sauce. Every single thing was delicious. I was highly impressed. This place will definitely be in the rotation. If I didn't live so far away, I would go for happy hour.

He was super sweet. Since they were closing, it was only to go order that that time which we were totally fine with. We got two crunchy tacos both beef, one shredded, one steak/cubed. They came with chips and extra bag of chips on the side as well. They have a salsa bar so I took two of the spiciest salsas to go. I wish I would've taken the other salsa just to taste them as well, but we will come back for sure! We drove home, which is about a little over five minutes away. The tacos were yummy! I liked them both. I asked my husband which one he liked better and he liked them both but he would pick the shredded beef. I honestly thought they were both delicious. I will get them both again. If I had to pick one, maybe the cubed/steak. Really friendly staff and I appreciate that. Looking forward to coming back and trying more.
