    Good food but not worth the wait. The slowest lunch truck around. Shrimp cocktail took 30 minutes and they weren't busy

    The cashier is not good. Had me waiting for half an hour for a fucking burrito. Not okay.

Their tacos are fire and we stop by here at least once a week and are never disappointed. Try to bring cash, their card machine is usually broken and has an additional fee for the tap to pay option.

    Pretty solid Mexican food. It's a little pricey, but they do pack a lot of meat into everything, so…read morein some ways it feels worth it. My husband and I got al pastor mulitas and asada tacos. I also got a lengua taco and he got a suadero taco. They asked if we wanted hand-made tortillas for each item -- we said yes -- and it looks like they charged an extra 50 cents each. For 5 tacos and 2 mulitas, it came out to about $40, which felt expensive, but we figured it was fine since we were trying it for the first time and were really craving Mexican food on our way home. They gave us green and red salsa, marinated spicy onions, radishes, and lemons. When we opened everything at home, the portions looked really good, so we didn't feel as bad about the price. I actually had enough leftovers for two more meals, so in the end it worked out. My husband loved the mulita and said it was super good. The lengua taco was packed with meat and totally worth it (it was around $3.50 including the hand-made tortilla). Honestly though, I don't think the hand-made tortilla was worth the extra charge -- it didn't reheat well the next day and got kind of dry. The green salsa didn't have much flavor, but the red was pretty good. I ended up adding some of my bottled salsas from home to amp it up a little. For the area that it's located, it's really good and I would get food from this place again. I would probably order ahead for pick-up though since you'd just be waiting on the sidewalk for a while if you order there.

I contacted this business via email to try and place our order but then decided to call it in. No one answered the first number listed so I tried the second and someone did answer. Once they took my order the person that took my order stated that it would be ready in 15 minutes. When I got there there were several people waiting and only one person cooking and taking orders. When I got a chance to talk to the person he informed me that he never received my order and I would have to wait ten more minutes. Almost thirty minutes later our food was finally done and there were several people waiting for their meals after I got mine. Once I opened my tray I noticed how the white hummus resembled mayonnaise and it also tasted more like mayonnaise than hummus. The rice was overcooked and hard on my teeth the chicken was average and the salad was drowned in sauce. The beef and chicken shawarma plate also had undercooked rice and large bell peppers and onion chunks. Neither of us finished our meal and were very disappointed especially with the high price we paid. My advice is to try another place that at least has two people working and that doesn't drown your food in undercooked rice and sauce.

    What a great find. I had not eaten at this place before, but it came highly recommended from a…read morefriend of mine so I thought hey I'm going to check this out. I am so glad I did, especially since it was happy hour. The place definitely has a great vibe to it. Plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. I recommend sitting at the bar as that's where all the action happens. You definitely want to make sure you get there for happy hour and Taco Tuesday especially, $10 Margaritas $4 tacos and these are not cheap tacos. These are like serious tacos that will fill you up. Their salsa is great, not super spicy and makes great for munching while you're talking with friends. The margaritas are definitely strong, which is nice, as some places tend to water them down for happy hour. I would say that this is a great choice to go check out and have a taco or two or three or four. I had the carne asada, the carnitas, and the pastor, every single one of them was perfect and the salsa that they came with was out of this world. Bottom line? This is a great place for Taco Tuesday as well as just a hangout and have a drink after work. Whenever I am in Costa Mesa. I am definitely coming here again.

When we arrived, we were shocked to see they were going to squeeze us into someone else's table filled with people that could not comfortably seat four additional people next to them . Horrified we requested what we originally booked and they said NOTHING accept they were REALLY BUSY and pointed us to the outdoor fire pits with no proper chairs or seating just a firepit to put a child to sit in front of. At this point zero management came to address this and zero servers as we asked for one . We were completely ignored . We were so hungry we just sat down desperate and starving. There was no omlette bar. (I was told on the phone there was an omlette bar before booking ) No sauces to go with any food. Dried up scrambled eggs and just a few dishes to choose from this 'buffet'. The ONLY salad dressings they had (2) were super sweet (no ranch) nothing . No flavor . Their non meat dishes were just one horrible dried up bean and grain pattie obviously frozen out of a box even an animal would never eat . It was that bad . Their 'replacement ' for almost zero dishes was a pancake ststion obviously to cut costs even more . The food was horrible . When you anticipate a special Mother's Day brunch that is horribly overpriced and get this in return its so disappointing and apalling .We were prepared to walk out after our bad news of no proper seating and terrible start but by then obviously we couldn't just go to another brunch on Mother's Day . Plus our other two guests were parking with a child so we were stuck. This was our only option or nothing. Its unbelievabke how am estsblishment can treat people like this especially on a soecial day like Mother's Day amd can command their pricing with no proper and safe seating for 4 with safe and healthy distancing with a fire pit as a SEAT. No apologies , no manager , nothing . just a terrible high bill, very little options and poor food quality . At best we should get a refund as this was false advertising and did not get a table for up to 4 . What an awful Mother's Day Brunch . We go out to eat EVERYWHERE around here but can't believe sonething like this can exist . So sad . This part of the day was ruined .
