The service was pretty bad. I tried the carne/steak burrito that came with rice, and cilantro. It was pretty big and really hot which was nice but it tasted pretty bland. I also tried the torta ahogada that tasted too salty. read more

Went in today for 2 tortas one ham and one asada and a banana milkshake total was 40$. The torta with ham only had one slice of ham. Really upsetting considering the price we paid and how small and how little meat they both had. read more

Faustos Restaurant - Ham torta - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

This spot is the definition of a 'hole in the wall', but in the best way. All the food and juices are freshly made to order. If they are busy, the wait can be a bit long, but it is well worth it. The seating is limited and it is cash only, but they do have an ATM. I highly recommend the gorditas. read more

Faustos Restaurant - Gorditas - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

Food is great but the customer service is really bad. Lady super rude seems like they don't want be their. Ask her a question looked at me and walked away and ignored me. For the price it is customer service should be better. Lost me as customer been going here for years. La comida es genial, pero el servicio al cliente es muy malo. Señora súper grosera, parece que no quieren ser suyos. Hazle una pregunta, me miró, se alejó y me ignoró. Por el precio, el servicio al cliente debería ser mejor. Me perdí como cliente, he estado yendo aquí durante años. read more

This place is okay. The asada is pretty good but nothing that blows me out of the ballpark. The flavor was mild not too salty. The fat and meat ratio is decent. Not a lot of fat. But the meat isn't dry. The quesadilla with asada and cheese was better than the tacos. The hot sauce is meh. I like how they open at 6am so if you are up very early, it's the only spot open. Also, it's cash only which is limiting but they have an ATM. read more

See all

Prices have skyrocketed, I was confused on why my order was so much?? Come to check that the big milkshakes are $13 each??? The sign inside says the big milkshakes are $8. I told them about the sign and they said they're outdated prices. Cash only as well. read more

Faustos Restaurant - "Licuados grandes... $8" - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

Bought a pastry HAD MOLE and my juice was so warm, I called back to inform them seem like they did not care! they had to intent of a refund or apology. read more

Amazing authentic Mexican food. The Gordita's are a must! Their liquados are fire too. If you're ordering to go order like 20-30 minutes ahead or time because they can get busy. read more

They don't speak English. Yelp indicates they accept credit card but they told me when I ordered they only accept cash

This was my to go place for enchiladas 7 years ago. My family and I decided to stop today and it didnt feel welcoming, the ladies there looked annoyed and with no customer service whatsoever. Really bad service overall and prices insane. The food was not the same anymore either therefore not worth it anymore. read more

I got a torta is was ok and a shake I paid $30.00 ridiculous expensive I know the prices have skyrocketed but that is toooo much I been customer for many years but definitely not coming back ever again.... read more

If I can give 0 stars I would! Please do not come here. I wish I would have taken a pic of the tiny piece of meat in the torta that I ordered! And bad customer service from the guy that wears eyeglasses at the register. So serious and not friendly when asking questions. read more

A great little Mexican restaurant on the east side where the sopes are large and delicious. It took rather a long time to get our food, for having maybe eight tables. That said, the food was worth the wait! I don't have much else to say than I'll definitely be going back. read more

Faustos Restaurant - two sandwiches on a plate - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

Extremely expensive for decent food The juices are over $12 & quesadillas are literally only cheese with very few pieces of meat. Not worth your money. Staff messed up my order (which caused me to pay more) The staffs attitude is not very pleasant when entering the place & taking orders. read more

Authentic Mexican cuisine. Everything freshly made. The service is great. Small place but always clean.

Great food , great quality and and very fresh! Give yourself time because they will make it once you order it . I usually order on the phone in advance read more

Food is delicious, it's made as soon as you order. The service is friendly. My favorite are the gorditas de chicharon.

The food is good but if you don't watch what exactly they are charging you for or don't speak Spanish then your really screwed. Nobody speaks English in the entire staff. read more

Faustos Restaurant - How the hell is large Orange juice $10? - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

The food is delicious tortitas are made by hand at the time you order. The same with the gorditas very good made as you order fresh. Red Chile sauce was my favorite. The place is little and a bit hot , but great food next time I will order other Menu items so test other things. The flies are coming due to doors being propped open due to heat. Food is fabulous. read more

I've been coming here like all my life! Love the tacos with freshly made tortillas, but my favorite is definitely the tortas and gorditas with a licuado de mamey! Soooo good! read more

This place is a little Ricky dinky Restuarant. Not much room, but we went there on a whim. I had been craving tripas and couldn't find any in Brentwood. Mind you I did read slot of the Yelp reviews, but wanted to make my own judgment call. Aside from the place being very small, not much interaction with staff, they were busy, but could you smile a little. Not rude, just standoffish!! Okay the food was excellent. My trips tacos were off the hook. Fresh homemade corn tortillas to kill it off. The best tacos I had in a while. Will go back for more. Might try something g new as well. Great tacos!! Yummy!! The salsa was excellent as well. Oh I did have a taco de chicarrón. Even the hubby liked it. read more

The food is delicious! Best Gordita's ever! It's a little hole in the wall next to King Burger on King road close to Story road.

This is the best spot here in the East Side. Everyone is nice, the food is great, it's crazy how the ratings are so low. It's authentic Mexican food. Sometimes it might take a little long, but the food is cooked to perfection. My uncle introduced this place to my dad about 20 years ago, my dad always tells the story of how excited my uncle would talk about this spot. Boasting about how great the tacos and gorditas were then proceeded with a *chefs kiss*. When my uncle moved out of state, it soon became a spot my dad and I would come to often, for as long as I can remember. Now we come and reminisce of the place and the years that have past, and the excitement my uncle had. We now come to this spot in his honor as he has passed a few years ago, and we continue to enjoy this place, even more than before. We've shared so many memories at this spot, and the place hasn't really changed and I love it. Every time I walk in, it's a time capsule of all the memories shared with my dad and family. The quesadillas are amazing! Growing up, the quesadillas were my go to, but then, I encountered the gorditas. The gorditas are TO DIE for. They're crunchy on the outside, the perfect soft crunch on the inside, the beans are cooked and made to perfection, the fresh lettuce give it the extra crunch and fresh taste, the cotija cheese is like the cherry on the top and ties it all together. My dad always gets them with chicharron and I get them with milanesa, and they both just melt in your mouth. Their green sauce is my absolute favorite, and gives it the extra "umph" if you need a little extra. All together, by far the best cozy Mexican spot in the area. read more

Everything is really good!!! My favorite are the Gorditas (carne asada, cochinita), enchiladas michoacana, morisqueta and their chilaquiles, their licuados... oh, and my kids live their tortas!!!! The only downside is they take soooo long to serve, I normally order ahead read more

I think my co-worker likes this place for their tortas. They get pretty busy at lunch so we called ahead. We were told 20 minutes. But ended waiting more like 35 minutes. For those who have a short lunch breaks, this sucks. So we had to bring it back to the office and enjoy while working. I got two tortas, one carne asada and one tripas. Piled high with meat, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and radishes. I think I preferred the carne asada to the tripe though. Everything tasted delicious. I think that's part of the reason it takes so long - they make everything fresh and to order. It's good but not sure if it's worth the wait. I would come back and try it again when I'm not on a schedule. Plenty of parking in the back. The place is long and narrow with a few tables and counters. Cash only also. read more

Came here with my parents and it literally took 50 minutes to get our food, and the guy tried to say it wasn't long. Wouldn't come back here again. Food was also pretty bland too. read more

Disrespectful workers. Les faltan respeto a los clientes. I ordered quesadillas and workers were extremely rude and and told me I needed to be "attentive" when ordering when they made the mistake read more

Faustos Restaurant is an awesome "whole in the wall" @ king & story's landmark neighborhood! its kinda hard to find, but right next to the king burger joint just past the shopping center, directly across from another historical landmark, Emma Prusch farm park. THESE ARE BANG'n TACOS! The tortillas are handmade in front of your face! With your choice of flour or corn! AWESOME GOODNESS! they also make "liquados" (juice) which are freshly made as well. read more

Faustos Restaurant - carne asada tacos! homemade corn tortillas! - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

Doesn't look like much when you walk past. I was starving and so was my kids so i decided to walk in but as soon as I got my order, I got a freaking plastic thing from a so-called lettuce wrap and I almost swallowed a piece plastic, i almost choked to death. i went to ask if it was a plastic piece. and the lady simply just said yes and carried on to talk to her co-worker to avoid me. she did not offer me a new item and i was so mad i had to ask if she can remake it and she took it away from me and after completing every families order they decided to finally make my gordita, as soon as the front sale person came of course. after i complained to the front sales person, he was kind enough to give me my money back for the item. never coming again. read more

RECOMMEND this place ! Tortas de Milanesa are delicious & also the licuados de Mamey . Employees are amazing & really nice .

Updating my review. Since my issue before I started going again a few months ago. Trick is to call ahead your order. The food is still really good and the other guy who was there before hasn't been there. It's been a younger guy, maybe his son? Anyway, the service is great and the food is great. Again only down fall is it's a cash only place. read more

Sorry but a taqueria that serves a$15 plate of flautas with no beans and rice can't get a good rating from me. Seriously $15 for just the flautas. Wow read more

My girlfriend took me here yesterday for some tortas as she used to come her a lot when she was younger. It's a "whole in the wall" place that seems to be popular. I could tell it was authentic Mexican food being that I was the only white person in there. She ordered the Torta with ham and grilled Queso Fresco for the both of us. I agree with the other reviewers that it does take a long time to receive the food, but it was worth the wait. The torta was yummy!! I thought the place was busy as every table was taken, but my girlfriend informed me that is wasn't! Busy is with a line out the door and people having to eat while standing up. Overall: This place got as 3 stars because it was my first torta ever and I have nothing else to compare it to. My girlfriend remembered their tortas to be better in the past. read more

Worst service ever came here on a sunday night there was literally nobody there I order enchiladas with nooooooooo cheese!!!!!! And I double clarified with the cashier he said yup no cheese so I get my plate and it is covered in cheese.but forgetvthat part the worst part was when I told the cook I said nooooo cheese she gave me attitude and literally stuck her hand inside my enchiladas and scraped it off with her hands and at that point I was SUPER DISGUSTED AND ASKED FOR MY MONEY BACK.BE WARE THIS PLACE read more

Walked in for a quick bite and ended up waiting about 40 minutes for one super burrito. The place also does not look super clean and cooks touch the found with bare hands. Over all the wait and experience at the place was not good. The food was mediocre at best read more

I came in w/ my baby's father to eat some food. I ordered an 12$ plate of Morisqueta.. And they brought out a skimped plate, with hardly any rice or anything. I felt I was able to eat the plate in three bites... Very upsetting. We asked for another plate of the same dish and they told us they were out.. If they were running low, they should have told us in the first place. read more

Gorditas are good just the waiting time is longer than normal even when they aren't busy but other than that I'll give them another try and I suggest calling them to order next time to avoid a long wait even if it's busy or not. read more
