Just passing through Wasco with my family and came across this little restaurant. I ordered the quesabirria and my brother had the chilaquiles with green salsa. The service was amazing! It was very quick and friendly. Once our food arrived to our table, we could smell how good it is! The quesabirria and consome was probably the best that I've ever had. The meat was tender and the tortilla was crispy. They were so delicious that my family ended up ordering more. The chilaquiles were really good too! I got to have a taste from my brother's plate. read more

Hole in the wall type of place. Homemade flour/ corn tortillas made it great. Would recommend

It's a small restaurant so it can get crammed really easily. I would say the prices are so pretty expensive, we got two cups of menudo and it was $30!!! However I will say the menudo did hit the spot. It had such a nice flavor and We also got barbacuá and It was also $30, once again it was good. The meat was juicy and had so much flavor, they provide salasa for it as well. The one thing we will complain about was the tamalas they were too dry and just decent. The kids ate them and enjoyed it though, so it might be a safe options for kids. The chicharrón was crispy and not oily at all! We loved it, and it didn't taste like oil. read more

If you want authentic this is the place to go. The customer service is friendly. The food is wonderfully spiced. I've never tasted anything from there that I didn't like. What I most appreciate about this restaurant is that they serve food your mom or abuelita makes. And of course they have the jarrito so does that go good with everything. The food is excellent and the prices just right. Another great thing about them is you can choose a combination of meats to put into your burritos. This is a definite gem of a "homemade' restaurant. I definitely recommend this restaurant read more

Me and my fiancé come here all the time. They make us a custom burrito every time we come. They do t sell it on the menu but they charge us accordingly and they get it right every time. They're so nice here too, I feel like I'm eating at my family's house, it's so nice to come sit and eat. This be one of them spots that someone usually has to take you too, unless you read a review like this and you know it's finna be good. Oh and the burrito they make us is a chile relleno burrito, it's so good and it's worth the price. read more

BAD customer service!! Cashier was rude & not cooperative with helping me with my order. Don't not recommend!!!

From the moment we entered Adrienna made us feel welcomed. I Asked for a couple of recommendations! There were several dishes that were prepared and displayed behind the glass case. She offered a taste of the two sauces for pork dishes. My picky husband loved both of them but as it turned out I ordered the most amazing Chile Relleno and el pastor tacos for my husband. The tortillas are all done in-house and they were delicious. It didn't take us long to also pick up Chile verde and beef with nopalitos and a couple of tamales for dinner. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the kitchen as well as the tiny dinning area. This restaurant put Wasco on the map for stopping on the way to Los Angeles. read more

La Cocina Del Pueblo is the real deal when it comes to old school traditional Mexican cooking. Horacio Casillas the owner and cook is as rooted to Wasco is as his skills in traditional Mexican cooking. I remember when I was a teenager and he used to cook the Chicharron, carnitas and fried pork belly for Zamora Market back in the 1990's. He also cooked and prepared food the El Pueblo market. Best way to describe this restaurant is as we Mexicans say, "de todo se hace." Chicharron, pork belly, tamales, sangre de cerdo (my favorite and hard to find) menudo, burritos, tacos and tortas are some of the items on his menu. Only on weekends he sells sangre de cerdo and menudo. I come all the way from Redlands, CA just to have his Sangre de puerco. My dad from Delano also does me the favor of getting and saving me some on the weekends. They are very busy on the weekends and it is because of this same reason. Good food is not just made, it is rooted to the towns they are prepared in. This is hands down the best place in Wasco to get good traditional Mexican style type cooking. read more

Ate there the other day. I currently working around the area and was craving Mexican food. I'm staying in Lost Hills and it's not much of a variety there. Just fast food to choose from. It's a small hole in a wall place but the food is really good. They even have a buffet there. I ordered a steak burrito and it was on point! From the homemade tortillas to the well season meat. If your in Wasco and craving Mexican food must try this place. read more

Food was good. Don't expect glamour in the seating but the traffic in there was non stop from the time we sat down until we left. A true mom and pop Mexican place. Delicious. read more

I bought Caldo de Res to go, and when I served it, it was cold. Took it back to have it warmed up. I was not pleased with the meat in it, it looked like horse meat and the color did not look good at all. It's crazy for one old school bottle of coke, Sprite you are paying $2.99 not worth it?? The young girl that dispatched me seem to be irresponsible and didn't take job seriously. read more
