My stomach is already starting to feel very sick from eating this food. Burrito filled with small pieces of rubbery like overcooked chicken. Almost impossible to eat the wet burrito with the small cheap plastic utensils they set out for you. this place sucks definitely do not recommend read more

Breakfast burritos are really good! I called in an order for burritos one morning and was told it would be about 10 minutes. It ended up being at least 25. I'm glad I had a few extra minutes. This place has a salsa bar which is nice because you can just pour yourself different types of salsa or take some to go. There is seating inside. My coworkers loved the burritos also. I would definitely go back. read more

Ordered a breakfast steak burrito and when I got home asked dad if he liked his burrito he said no because the meat had no flavor......I looked at it and noticed it only had steak... there was no eggs or potatoes which is what a breakfast burrito comes with....called Jilbertos to let them know they had given me the wrong order for next time and she said I didn't order correctly. The lady that answered the phone was rude and used vulgar language called me a ***uta****adding the p to the beginning of that... blaming the customer instead of her taking the order correctly. Will never visit this place again. They need to work on their customer service, and reprimand their employees on using foul language. If the manager sees this I went in on Sunday February 19th, 2017 at 9am. There were only two people working of what I could see. The employee responsible was the female employee. read more

Los Jilberto's Taco Shop - I forgot to take a picture of the burrito. That is how good it is. - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

Our first clue of how shitty This establishment is was that they limit the amount of salsa you can use. What kind of Mexican restaurant limits your salsa intake!?! Secondly, they charge you for water! Who the hell charges for a plastic cup of water?! I will say this though, their food wasn't bad but I definitely wont be coming back read more

I wish they had a drive-thru. As far as south Temecula, they provide the tastiest Mex food that's cheap and convenient. I go for the al pastor combo, rolled tacos combo, and the carne asada fries here is the best. I usually bag a good amount of their fresh pico de gallo (for free) and dump it all over my fries so to delude myself that it's heathy. read more

We've been here a few times and we've always enjoyed our food. The salsas are nice and spicy too. We had California and carne Asada burritos, both delicious. We were there yesterday morning (around 11) and it was quite busy but the young man at the cashier was quick while still providing the friendly customer service everyone expects. He never had a huge line, and he was busy wiping down counters and cleaning in between customers. I wanted to go back and get his name but I was busy with my toddlers and forgot. I wanted to provide his name for this review so his employer knew what a great employee they have. Hopefully he's there next time. I could see a few guys in the kitchen during our meal and you could tell they were all working quickly to make sure everyone was getting their food in a timely manner. read more

honestly loved the chicken and carne asada but there was barely any cheese on our nachos and when i mean barely i mean like maaaaybe a half handful. want to order again but i guess i'll have to specify EXTRA cheese lol. read more

I have been to Los Jilbertos twice now and they haven't disappointed. The first time I had a bean, rice and cheese burrito and it was delightful. I know, not gourmet Mexican food! It is my standard meal though, and one would be surprised at how truly gross or disproportioned they are often made. The ratio of rice/beans/cheese was perfect and the ingredients were very good. I really have to rave about the breakfast burritos. There is only one other spot on Temecula Pkwy that can make a good one...all the other Mexican joints sell horrific breakfast burritos. I am very happy to say that Los Jilbertos is right there at the top as my favorite! The ingredients were delicious, they mixed everything together, and the tortilla is tasty and humongous! read more

This is a classic Los Jilbertos location. A typical "socal taco shop". No real flare but not disappointing. The menus is standard with all the classic favorites and has a good selection of combo plates. Their burrito prices are a bit pricey, so your just as better off ordering a combo for a buck or two more. The combo plates typically range from $8 to $9 and the ones that come with rice and beans have the beans in a mini taco shell you can eat. Very nice. The salsa bar is not bad with a nice amount of carrots and Pico de gallo. The food is tasty and the service is friendly. Place has seating inside and out and is clean. read more

This visit consisted of a Cali burrito with potatoes. She asked me if I wanted fries or potatoes, and since I've always had fries, I thought I'd try something new. MISTAKE. It was really weird in fact. It was almost like mashed potatoes. The carne was way too salty and the tortilla was a bit underdone. Too bad because it's a nice, clean joint with friendly staff. read more

Los jilbertos is a solid place in general. I frequent a few of them. That said, the one on temecula parkway is lacking in food quality and customer service. Cashier in the back finally comes out, begins taking my order. Phones rings in middle of order, answers it.. no problem right? Just put them on hold and finish with the customer you're with in person. Nope. Takes their order, writes it down AND calls it out to the cooks. 2 mins later I get to continue my order. Bean n cheese, cheese not melted, beans still hard chunks. Quesadilla same way. Hard to screw up making bean and cheese burritos and taking an order, but they did. I like LJ in general but this was just...bad. read more

So far, so good. I've visited this place several times over the last two months. I've ordered hard shell beef tacos, rolled tacos and a machaca burrito. Each time I've gone I was greeted warmly and served promptly. The biggest problem with this place is that it's a bit hard to find. It's nestled behind a Valero's and if you're driving above the speed limit on the Temecula Parkway, you're going to miss the driveway to this place. And if you do miss the driveway, you'll probably end up just pulling into the Del Taco instead. But if you do happen to make it here, you won't be disappointed with your order. They do good work here and their prices rival the much larger chains. Not so fast... read more

Classic socal mexican restaurant. Breakfast burritos, shredded beef tacos, enchiladas and grease... in the best way. They have everything I'm looking for and they're consistent. One thing they don't have is something signature, something to crave. As a note, I don't require places like these to be sit-down, but here the tables are sufficient and clean with outdoor community seating as well. The bathroom is clean too. One more thing, if you're in Starbucks drive thru next door hungry and in a hurry you'll wish Los Jilbertos didn't exist :) read more

This place looks clean but looks can deceiving. Anyways let's start with why you are reading this. The meat was absolutely disgusting and had no flavor at all. The beans and rice were not bad but my husband also got the pastor Taco and that meant wasn't good either. My son had the bean and cheeses burrito but he said it grossed him out so much he only took 2 bites and he was done. I guess if you want to go have beans and rice you should be good. And it's pretty $$ for what we had. One plate was trashed because it was so gross. On another note there was no soap in the restroom and we nicely asked twice to get it placed. They said they would get to it when they can. Well, one of the cooks went to the restroom and left without washing their hands because when I went back in to try to wash my hands I couldn't because once again there was no soap. These people cooked our food and that's just Straight up nasty. Just saying that's not why they get a one but just throwing it out there. read more

Wow this place was surprisingly good! Came here post Rugged Maniac mud run after seeing the reviews. My friends and I were all impressed by the quality of the food. I'm from SD and have had my fair share of Mexican food and the Nak burrito did not disappoint. It had a good amount of carne asada and also had guacamole, pico de gallo, beans, and french fries. Delicious. One of the better burritos I've had because it didn't feel like I was eating a cup of oil like at some other places. The serving size was quite large and normally I wouldn't finish, but I couldn't stop eating! =P Couple friends enjoyed their California burritos and chicken fajita plates as well. The menu is really extensive! They offer breakfast burritos too. We really liked their salsa bar as well. They have several different kinds and also provided pickled carrots. I wish this place was in the South Bay! read more

Got the #9-two chicken tacos and received taco shells that were pre made. Now a mom and pop shop like Los Jilbertos should produce authentic shells right? Or I could have gone to TACO BELL. My mother got some nachos and has stale chips. Not sure what's going on with them but we are very disappointed. read more

Los Jilberto's Taco Shop - Pre-made taco shells from an "authentic" Mexican shop. - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

I ordered an al pastor burrito. I'm 6'2" and that burrito was the size of my forearm. Easily 10-12" it was very good. STUFFED with meat and guac. It's not often I can't finish my meal, but I couldn't finish this thing. I love that they have Jarritos, tried the new Guava flavor. Highly recommend. Don't let the outside fool you, this is a legit Mexican place. I will definitely be back and I def recommend. The only reason I took a star off was because the burrito I ordered was VERY salty. Maybe that's one of the reasons I couldn't finish it? read more

2/3/17 1050am Ordered 2 mini tacos. The meat was very plain and the tortillas were stiff.... I don't understand a "Taco Shop" not putting cilantro on tacos, to me it's a very White Wash place. Wtf is with sm or lrg tacos? That doesn't make sense.... The salsa's were not hot at all, the red one tasted like tomato sauce (very disgusting)... I'm Mexican and I don't understand having salsa that's so plain and not even hot, not cilantro on my tacos, it was very disappointing. read more

My last visit was in the evening a few weeks ago and let's talk about the customer service. I needed to use the restroom upon arrival and headed for it upon entering. As I was opening the door, from across the room a girl who was the cashier said rather loudly "Excuse me sir! Are you going to buy something?". I had to then tell her that yes I am, but I need to go pee first. Probably too much information for the other diners. I understand that they want their restroom to be for customers only, as the sign indicates. But I think it's pretty tacky that I was fronted off like that. If it's so important, maybe they should post a guard or require a deposit or a drivers license. I didn't like that, at all. I'm mentioning this part as a piece of advice- take it or leave it. That said, it's not as if I can say I've ever had anything other than perfunctory customer service in the past. Now to my next gripe. I ordered two tacos and taquitos, and they come with guacamole. A lot of people love guacamole but I am not one of them. I don't like it at all. I much prefer sour cream or cheese, and most places like this will gladly allow you to make a substitution. But not here! You can get it without the guac, but even so you will be charged for added item. It isn't fair that because I wanted cheese on my tacos and sour on my taquitos that I had to pony up an extra $3. How is that reasonable? Guacamole is a very expensive product (more than cheese or sour cream is), and thus it's baked into the price (unlike something cheap like onions). So if I order a taco without guacamole, I'm actually overpaying, and then on top of that I have to pay to add the cheese. Same calculus applies to wanting taquitos with sour for the dip. Sour cream lovers everywhere should unite against this sort of discrimination, because that's what it is. I can find no rational basis for charging someone an extra buck to have the cook squirt a glob of sour cream instead of a glob of guacamole on someone's plate. Many times I have just broken down and paid the extra money. I complain sometimes to a cashier who just looks at you blankly because they don't actually give a rat's ass. But I've decided after ten years of overpaying that I'm not putting up with it anymore, and so I'm probably not coming back ever again. It's not as if their food is so good I can't stay away. It's alright, and they have late hours, but that's were the superlatives end. Good Mexican food options in Temecula are few and far between, but there are other options that aren't trying to rip me off. Nevermore will you rip me off, Los Jilbertos! And I should note that I've been to other Los J locations where they WILL let you sub out the guac at no charge, so as not to hold the entire company responsible for the high-grossing practices of this location. This has been pissing me off for years until it's finally reached the tipping point for me, but in the final analysis it's my fault because putting up with it has always been a choice. read more

My drive from SD to Temecula is pretty awesome.. not only is it a lot shorter than my pre-married life commute.. I also get to drive past Temecula Parkway... I can stop by and get my cha-ching on at Pechanga.. hit up a drive-thru Starbucks.. and now... satisfy my occasional breakfast burrito craving.. Yesterday.. I had a breakfast burrito.. here.. at Los Jilbertos. The great thing is they open at 7am.. so it'll always be open when I drive by here in the morning.. I think I was their first customer.. the decor is very "mexican food restaurant.." and it was very clean. I ordered the chorizo, egg, and potato burrito.. the chorizo was very powerful in the burrito.. and at the end was really greasy.. I felt a little "grease-overload" throughout the day because of it.. but it was pretty good.. they could have balanced the egg and potato part a bit more to counter the strength of the chorizo.. I probably would have liked it a lot better.. They have several breakfast burritos to choose from.. AND they serve breakfast all day.. I will be back.. read more

We love Jilbertos. They are quick and consistently good. My favorite is the vegetarian burrito and my wife likes the street tacos

This is the best little taco shop around! growing up in SoCal I have had my share of tacos;) this place gives you the real deal at a great price. we have never left unsatisfied! get your burrito wet! read more

Looking for a quick and tasty bite after a long day? This place has got you covered. We flew in on a Thursday evening, exhausted from a long and slightly frustrating day of travel. If you've ever been frustrated and hungry, you know that can be a deadly combination. Looking for a quick and easy place to grab a bite, we decided to take a shot and try Los Jiboritos. We're glad we found this hidden gem! The fish tacos were well made and had great flavor. Portion sizes were large which made it a great value! We left feeling full and happy once again... We even returned a few days later and tried the carne asana burrito, which was also delicious. Don't overlook this place! You'll be glad you stopped by! read more

A really hole-in-the-wall taco shop that actually has quite an extensive menu. The portions are large, prices are cheap considering the amount of food you get, and most importantly it's good Mexican food. We've tried their carne asada plate, carnitas plate, tortas, as well as their breakfast burritos. All were good, and as we live nearby, we usually make it a point to stop by at least once a month when we're craving Mexican food. They do charge for using a debit/credit card (unless your total is over $10) and make sure to grab salsas and pico at their small self-serve salsa bar. There is a small seating area inside and a few tables outside, but I'd recommend getting your food to go as the plaza where it's located gets pretty congested. read more

Los Jilberto's Taco Shop - Small inside seating area - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

If you like Southern California Taco Shop Mexican food, Los Jilbertos rocks. Been going to this particular location since it opened. Warm friendly staff (they start working on my order when I walk in the door). The carne asada (burrito or tacos) is top notch. Rolled tacos are also a favorite. If you are thinking Taco Bell, Del Taco, or even Chipotle.. you are in the wrong place. This is baja food all the way. Yum! read more

Had some great carne asada fries from here. Alot of cheese, guacamole, sour cream and meat. They have a salsa bar with many different ones to chose from. Definitely will be my new go to Mexican food place since moving to Temecula a month ago. read more

Really how hard is to understand English. Cashier asks what will you have. I reply I will try the Chicken Burrito. What kind says the cashier. CHICKEN I reply. Grilled asks the cashier. Is there a choice? I want what's is right on the menu here. Painting at menu. Blank stare blank stare I cancel my order. read more

We were yearning for Mexican food for Sunday night dinner.! Take out was available so we ordered up for the entire family. We had crispy chicken tacos, bean and cheese burritos, and carne asada. The food took a short time to prepare while we enjoyed the aromas of chicken and beef being grilled. Our tacos were good size and had a plentiful amount of chicken. The burritos were perfect for the kids. The carne asada was spiced just right and cooked well. The meal was tasty and economical. We will be back to try other items on the extensive menu. read more

My go to for quick and great food! Although, the ladies can use a little work on their customer service!

I went to this places yesterday afternoon like around 5:30 i placed an order over the phone it was 2 burritos and carne asada fries I probably took like 20 minutes to get to the there and tell me why i had to wait another 20 minutes. The cashier and cook we're talking and laughing like do your job.One of the reasons people place orders is so when we arrive there is ready not to wait longer. Im never coming back here and plus she was been hella rude with other Customers and she had an attitude and she was like oh you had to wait. and she was not taking the order to the other customers...all the time she was in the back talk to talking to the Cook..... read more

Enjoyed a yummy bacon/potato/egg/cheese breakfast burrito for a whopping $5.00! It felt like it was 3lbs and while I was only able to eat 1/4 of it, it made a great left over for later. Nice pleasant service and food was hot! read more

Called in an order and was told 10 minutes. Was there about 15 minutes after and when I arrived, there were two people who came in after me who got their food before I did. I was the last person in the restaurant to get my order and I called it in! I would have been better off just going in and ordering. I might have gotten my order faster. My advice is that if you call in an order and they tell you ten minutes, arrive about 45 minutes later and you might have your order ready. read more

Clean restaurant with nice decor. Even the bathroom is clean. Friendly staff. Big portions of everything. Good slasa bar and delicious hot carrots. The fish tacos were absolutely amazing: loaded with creamy sauce, cabbage and pico de gallo, with generous portions of fish inside. The tortillas were slightly chewy and delicious, very fresh. Rolled tacos were delicious and were covered in guac and cheese. read more

I love the food but the conversation i had today over the phone was very disappointing. Last night 10:35pm i ordered the #6(chimichanga with side of rice and beans). Well the cooks failed to put the rice and beans on the plate. By the time i realized their mistake i tried calling to inform them but they had already closed. So after church service and unwinding i remembered to call them 3:30pm and the young lady who worked the night before (Maria) remembered my order and placed me on hold to speak with the cooks. She came back and said "you should've called last night"...to which i told her that i did but you had closed already, then proceeds to tell me "you should've called this morning so that we can give you the whole menu for their mistake but since you just now called we can only offer you the rice and beans" I asked Maria if that made any sense to her she chuckled and said "i don't know i just work here". So now i know i should've called right when i woke up to receive the full menu i purchased vs waiting not even 24 hours from the time of purchase?!! Bless your heart Maria because you just work there! read more

This place has amazing chips and salsa...it's actually what I mainly come for. I always get their deal of 3 tacos and a drink for $6. Add on some chips and salsa and it comes out to $9-10. For a girl like me, that's all I need. What makes this place even better is that it's the only good Mexican food spot that I've had in town and is right next to all these places to fix your car (tires, oil changes, etc.) Can't beat that. read more

I came in for the California burrito and was not disappointed. The service was nice and the place was clean, food was tasty.

I've been hearing about Los Jilbertos rolled tacos for a long time, and they definitely did not disappoint! Their rolled tacos are SO GOOD! I don't know what it is, but they make them just right. I love how they serve the beans in a little tostada bowl. The rice is delicious, as well as their guacamole, and everything else! The El Pastor burritos are amazing. I wish this place was closer to me, but I'll totally stop by every time I'm in Temecula! read more

This is our go-to place for Mexican food in Temecula. We always order the combo plate with 2 Beef Tacos, beans, & rice and the Chimichanga combo plate with beans & rice.
