    Arizona burrito
    Jordan H.

    A very hefty burrito with plenty of meat. Red and green salsas both were pretty alright. I'd come back if I'm in the area.

    Supreme Burrito
    CJ L.

    The supreme burro is mega YUM. This place being so close to CSL Plasma is PERFECT as I'm usually starving post plasma donation. The food is served fairly quickly as it has a counter order system similar to fast food. My only hang up is the furniture needs some repairs. The place is by no means dirty but the dinged up furniture and inner walls makes it seem dingy. BUT AGAIN the food is delish and the only way for them to improve their facilities is to bring them your business and money for repairs/newer things!

    After people showed up.

    This place used to be Los Favoritos and I liked it then. They got new ownership but everything seems to be the same. The salsas taste the same. I went on a Sunday about 11am. There were only two people there. They let me bring in my own coffee. I had an egg, potato, bean, cheese breakfast burrito. I added guacamole. I had the complimentary water. The burrito was very, very good. Maybe excellent but I'm only giving them four stars so in accordance, I'l say very, very good. Tortilla was thin and pliable. Potatoes/hashbrowns were pretty crispy, considering they were wrapped in a tortilla. I cut my burrito in half and the cross section didn't reveal that all the ingredients were scrambled together but instead, cooked separate and placed in the burrito. The red salsa rules. Sidenote: The punx (up da punx) say this place uses lard in the tortillas and beans. I didn't ask because I know da punx to be diligent. So it's prob not vegetarian and def not vegan. Service was decent, friendly. Food came in about ten minutes. When no one was there, it was nice. I dined in and knew I'd be sitting for a bit. About 11:30am, all the college students must've woke up and the place was packed. It wasn't totally annoying but it wasn't as peaceful as it was when it was empty. Go early if you're not into crowds. No wifi but I was able to jump on another close company's free wifi. I'll come back as I have when it was Los Favs.

    Always am amazing service and high quality food served by even better people. My go to is Cali burrito, and don't forget the red & green sauce.

    Burritos are amazing. Very flavorful, nice thin tortilla, and HUGE portion. They definitely don't skimp on the meat inside.

    Sometimes the best meals happen because your original plan falls through. That was exactly the case…read morehere, and honestly... I'm not even a little mad about it. I ordered the veggie tacos with roasted sweet potatoes (skin on, which was absolutely the right call), pepitas, feta, and all the right toppings. Whoever prepped those sweet potatoes deserves a raise because they were cut into the perfect sized pieces. Every bite had a little sweetness, a little crunch, a little saltiness... it just worked. My dining partner ordered the barbacoa tacos, and I didn't even have to ask if they were good. The involuntary "Mmm..." after the first bite answered that question. Four tacos disappeared in record time, followed by, "I could've eaten two more." That's about as glowing of a review as you're going to get. Now let's talk about these tortillas. Handmade. Corn. Tortillas. Are you kidding me? They're the kind of tortillas that had me question every tortilla I've ever eaten. Soft, fresh, and somehow they manage to steal the spotlight even with everything else on the plate being so good. The chips and guacamole were excellent, too. The chips have to be made in-house and they disappeared at an alarming rate. The salsa that came with them had this smoky, fire-roasted, chipotle flavor that kept me reaching for another chip... and then another... and then suddenly I realized I'd eaten way more chips than I intended. The bottled table salsas deserve their own paragraph because they completely confused me... in the best way. They bring three to the table... a green, a red, and a darker red. I kept tasting them individually thinking, "Okay, these are alright." Then I started mixing them. Game over. On their own, each one was solid. Mixed together? That was the magic. I don't know if that's what they intended or if I accidentally stumbled onto the perfect combination, but from that point on, every taco got the salsa trio treatment. The only tiny hiccup was when we first walked in. We were greeted, asked if we wanted menus, and sat ourselves. We waited for a bit thinking someone would come take our order, only to realize it's actually counter service. Once we figured that out, everything was smooth sailing. Not a big deal at all... just something first-time visitors might want to know. Follow the sign "order here" I also loved the layout. You can actually watch them making the food, which somehow makes the wait even harder because everything smells incredible. Two tacos ended up being the perfect light meal for me. Could I have eaten ten? Absolutely. Those two statements can both be true. Meanwhile, my dining partner polished off four barbacoa tacos and was talking about ordering two more. We only ended up here because another place happened to be closed, and honestly, I'm glad it worked out that way. This ended up being one of those meals we keep talked about on the drive home. Oh and the bathrooms?. I walked in and immediately thought, "Whoa... this is a cool bathroom" The lighting had this pinkish-purple glow that made me feel like I'd accidentally wandered into a trendy lounge instead of a taco shop. I honestly wasn't even sure there was regular lighting in there and I didn't look... because the vibe seemed so intentional. Finally, the music. .. upbeat, dance-worthy, the kind that had me bouncing in my seat while waiting for my food. Between the atmosphere, the lighting, and the music, the whole place had me want to hang out a little longer. Zero regrets. I'll absolutely be back... and next time I'm ordering more tacos.

He was incredibly kind and attentive, especially with my friend who is deaf, making sure we always had water, napkins, and plenty of chips. The margarita flight is always a must for me, so I had to order one for my friend since it was her first visit. I told her that even though neither of us are into spicy margaritas, I knew she'd love it and I was right! Every margarita was delicious. I also ordered the lavender lemonade, which was refreshing and just as good. Ghost Ranch never seems to miss when it comes to drinks. Potato tacos! Another must have My friend ordered the Aztec Cake and insisted I'd regret not getting it. She was absolutely right. It was bomb and Torrance offered us a side of chips .TY. I ordered the short rib. It was flavorful, tender, and filling, with lots of garlic and savory flavor. I'm not sure if short rib is just not my thing, but it didn't wow me the way the Aztec Cake did. I warmed it up later and it was delicious a second time so no complaints. Excellent service, delicious drinks, and a fun way to spend the Fourth. We'll definitely be back!

Been waiting to check this place out for Happy Hour and finally got around to it with friends. Happy Hour is daily with $3 off all appetizers (not just selected as the menu says) in addition to drink specials. We ordered a few apps to share and had: - Chips with Guacamole and Salsa: solid - Queso Fundido: I was excited for this as friends have said they liked it, but the cheese harden within minutes and it wasn't as nice - Street Style Esquites: I was expecting more corn rather than mixed in another cheese dip and likewise, the cheese harden quickly. - Shrimp cocktail: it was pretty heavy on the liquid rather than thicken, but good - 3 potato tacos: okay, wasn't expected it to be fried so it was a bit greasy but loved the slaw it came with - Southwest egg roll: not bad, was a crowd's favorite and I liked the sauce it came with We didn't realize most of the apps came with tortilla chips otherwise we may have ordered differently. I got the frozen margarita and it was a bit sweet, but nice for the summer evening. Our server wasn't super attentive, but was nice whenever they came around. There's a sampler entree platter I'd like to try, but of all the appetizers we tried, the best was probably the chips with guacamole and salsa.

    Cute little margarita date with the Hubby…read more The Hubby and I stopped by for a little drink break and had such a fun time! We weren't here for a full meal this visit, so we just enjoyed some chips & salsa while sipping on drinks. I went for a margarita , and it was SO flavorful! Definitely not one of those sad, watered-down margaritas--the flavor was on point and made for the perfect little sip. The Hubby grabbed a beer , and it was super cold--exactly how a beer should be! The chips & salsa were perfect for casually munching while we enjoyed our drinks and each other. Sometimes a simple little stop for drinks is all you need for a cute date moment! We didn't get to try the food this time, but now I'm definitely curious! We'll be back to give the food a try next time. Overall, such a fun little stop for drinks with my favorite person.
