    Ordered guacamole dip, asada fries with chicken, Mexican tacos with chicken, one surpreme chicken taco, chicken flauta with beans only. $56.18 The chips are good, light, crunchy and good. The red salsa has more flavor with the hot salsa and avocado salsa. The guacamole dip wasn't good, looks like the tub or tube stuff with some added tomatoes to doctor it up. The Asada fries are good, lots of chicken and stuff on top. Wouldn't have dumped the small waffle fries onto this plate, there is a lot of little bits of fries on the plate. The chicken flautas are okay. Not a fan when they are placed abut to the refried beans, makes them soggy to start. Not a lot of chicken inside. The chicken tacos are so-so, nothing special. The supreme tacos are decent. The tortilla is soft and good.

    Los Gallos Burrito

    I've been meaning to try Los Gallos since they opened late last year, but I hadn't gotten there & man am I regretting it! I recently placed a pickup order including the Birria Pizza, Los Gallos Burrito & an assortment of salsas and chips. The burrito was absolutely incredible, but HUGE! I was able to get 3 meals out of it. My only wish is that there were more pineapple on it! That sweetness really balanced well with the spicy chorizo. The Birria pizza had amazing flavor, but I do wish it were a bit more crispy. This very-well could have been because it was a take out and steamed on the drive home, but it was delicious either way and lasted several meals as well. I have to say my absolute favorite part of the order was the avocado salsa - oh my goodness, to die for! It was smooth, creamy, and super spicy. I seriously could put it on everything! I'm already dreaming of getting it again. The service was super friendly and I was greeted immediately upon arrival - I will absolutely be back! I highly recommend you try them out if you haven't!

    Friendly and fast service. The taco salad has good filing with out excessive beans but the ground beef needs seasoning, which is very mild, let's call it a hint of seasoning. The Birria tacos has plenty of shredded beef but the cheese was minimal. The location is outside our local travel so it's on the bubble if there is another visit. It definitely looks like a well ran and clean business to remember.

    Dinner for me! My friend had my rice n beans. I didn't want the tortillas, but they did come with this meal.

    This restaurant is a newer restaurant in Clawson that I've been curious about! I went here last night with friends and we all liked our meals but no one loved their meals. My one friend liked 2/3 tacos she ordered but wasn't impressed with the 3rd. I ordered their chicken fajitas and they were slightly above average. There wasn't tons of chicken but the fajitas had a good flavor. I definitely would come back here, and it would be great if they were to get some sort of a liquor license too. Check them out! Food: 3.75/5 Service: 4.5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Value: 4/5

    My family has been here twice, once on a Thursday and once on a Friday night. We are still grieving for the loss of our departed On The Border in Auburn Hills and have been looking for a replacement, and we thought (we thought) this was the one. Overall, the place is super clean. They've done a super slick, very funny trick where they play videos of some guy touring several countries eating local cuisine so that viewers/customers are hungry from watching by the time their food arrives, which I think is actually ingenious. The first time we came, the food was great. It was sparsely populated (as one might expect on a weekday night). I got the fajitas and my dad got a spicy burrito of some variety (sorry I can't be more specific, I don't remember :'] ) Service was fast and polite, and parking, though limited out front for the several businesses that share that mall space, was not a problem. The following time we came, my dad and I were raving about the food the whole ride there, so the expectations were high. The parking lot was full so we parked on the street (which I imagine is a problem for the people that live there). Of course, it being a Friday night, the place was full--good! I enjoy seeing little restaurants busy. There was no line and we were seated within three minutes by friendly waitstaff. It took a very long time to get our drink orders in--again, busy--and in the meantime, we got to see a sideshow of the manager arguing with several patrons about their bill. At Los Gallos, they use a digital billing system, and it was my understanding (chronic eavesdropper) that these people believed they were overcharged for items listed differently on the menu. The manager was very kind and polite and handled it with grace. Anyway, three of my four family members' food came out cold, but both times my fajitas came out the fastest of any place I'd been to. *Lots* of oil at the bottom but I appreciate the sizzle too, I guess, and we all had leftovers so it didn't matter that it came out cold because we had to reheat it anyways. I don't know that any of my family members will be back, but I am likely to.

    Very cute restaurant with yummy food! I had the fajita quesadilla and liked that it had bell peppers and onions in it. Great and friendly service.

    Husband and I were in the area and needed to eat. After reading the reviews, we settled on this place. We were sat right away and the wait staff quickly brought us water and chips and salsa. Food was fresh and delicious. I enjoyed the carnitas. I enjoy that they have numerous styles of tacos available. Next time, I want to try the mexicano style tacos. I enjoyed the decor.

    What a refreshing place. You are welcome the moment you come in and comfortable all the time you're there. The late staff was extremely nice, and knowledgeable. The restaurant is brand new so it's very very clean and it looks like it might be set up later for a bar, which would be a bonus with margaritas! We had the enchilada special which was a phenomenal deal and tasty. You could tell that the beans were homemade and the sauce had cooked for a long time to develop its robust flavor. Kudos to the staff and best wishes on your future in Clawson

    Los Gallos Cocina Mexicana recently opened, and I've been meaning to stop in--today after work was finally the day, and I'm really glad I did. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm welcome that immediately set the tone. The atmosphere is very nice, comfortable, and inviting, and the customer service is absolutely top‑notch. I was seated quickly, and it wasn't long before someone came by to take my order. Water, chips, and salsa were brought out right away, and I have to say--the chips were perfectly crispy and the salsa had excellent flavor. Simple, fresh, and very delicious. For my meal, I ordered the ground beef enchiladas, and they were outstanding. Full of flavor, well‑prepared, and clearly made with care. I also grabbed a Mexican Coke in the glass bottle, which just hits differently and paired perfectly with the meal. When I was getting ready to check out, my waitress suggested dessert. She listed a few options, but once I heard churros and ice cream, the decision was made--and wow, that dessert was incredible. A perfect way to end the meal. I have to give a special shout‑out to my server, Maria. Her customer service skills are next level. She made sure I was taken care of the entire time and truly made the experience even better. This place is amazing, and I will definitely be back. The only downside is that they don't serve alcohol--not their fault--but with food this good, a margarita would have been the cherry on top. That said, it won't stop me from coming back at all. Highly recommend checking out Los Gallos Cocina Mexicana if you're in the area!

    New Mexican in former sushi restaurant - Sozai. Very inviting small tables and galley style seating. Food was "meh". Had the Gallo Burrito which was served "wet" style with queso cheese. Flavor was decent but wasn't anything I would go back for at $17.

The people working here were so friendly and personable with literally everyone that walked in the door. The service was top notch. It is also the most adorable place giving vibes of Lamy's food counter at Henry Ford Museum. I loved all of the options on the menu and it was so hard just picking a couple items to try. We had chicken tacos. They were so good and so fresh, I loved the sauce on top. Honestly, I am not sure if it was cheese or a sour cream type mixture, but it was creamy and flavorful. I also had the torta which was absolutely incredible. It had the same chicken as the taco. The chicken was slow cooked or stewed and shredded and was so flavorful, like a homecooked chef's kiss. The bread was fresh. I loved the sauce poured over it, making it a dipped and soaked sandwich. The carrots and cilantro, sliced radishes and sliced fresh jalapenos added a level of crunch, freshness and deeper flavor profile. I would want to get this every time. We also tried their delicious "curly" fries, which were like julienned shoestring fries fired fresh. It seemed like every dish was made fresh and right in front of you. So worth it, plus the prices are great. I would love to try their fried chicken plate, their breakfast sandwiches, and their other desserts. We talked to the man behind the counter who seemed like maybe a manager. He gave us their famous chocolate chip cookie to try. It was fresh baked and delicious. I would love to take home more of those. It looked so simple but was better than many bakeries specializing in cookies alone. He also gave us an second order of fries to take home with my leftovers, just top notch kindness and service. This man told us that OWL owns other restaurants and we would probably like them. I am open to trying more of their group but I do want to return here. This is one of those diners you would find being profiled for best kept secret or gourmet home cooked foods under the guise of fast food.

Let's just say they definitely improved ! We got an order of chips and their seasonal salsa, which was roasted red pepper, and it was very flavorful and delicious. I got a hot honey burrito with beans and rice and my gf got birria tacos. Also not pictured is a marg. Hot honey burrito was a lot of food! The rice is okay, a little bland and clumps together, unlike traditional Mexican fluffy rice. Refried beans are fine. Burrito is very filled and was super sweet from the hot honey which made it a bit hard to finish, but definitely enough food, and I probably could have eaten half. Birria tacos were delish and the consumé was super rich. Margs come in different flavors but they all kinda taste the same to me so far, and they're strong. Maybe a bit too strong? Depends what your goal is with them. Service was good, a little slow for us being at the bar, but nothing to be concerned about. Trivia was fun and we'll definitely be back to try some other things on the menu. Great job on menu revamp!

Originally we planned to eat at Cafe Muse but was told wait would be 45 minutes for a table. The solution....Condado Tacos! Upon arrival, we were seated right away.

I expected it to be better...the shrimp were micro miniature in size like popcorn shrimp and overcooked. Hard, chewy and no flavor. Yuck. I also was disappointed in the amount of lettuce underneath the pico and cabbage....barely a 1/2 cup as the base. Our server was attentive, friendly, and even cracked some jokes with us and chatted.
