    Permanently closed?!?! As of 4/8/26, 1:40pm, this restaurant was definitely OPEN! Good thing we didn't eat here. :-/ It's in front of the Tesla charging station so we thought it would be ok to use the restroom and stay inside in the AC, while charging. They require you to buy something to use the restroom. That's fair, except that their soda can is $3.00 each. When you probably can buy a six-pack around that price. Oh well. Bathroom was clean.

    Al pastor and asada

    Have been stopping here otw to Vegas. The Al pastor is actually very fresh and juicy. Love the char on it. They also have a self-served sauce bar with yummy salsa, lemon, cucumbers, radishes, jalapeños. All their 3 salsas very good !

    We were greeted right away and the gentleman took our order. Pinches Tacos never misses. Stopped by and ordered the super nachos and they were loaded to the max -- perfectly seasoned carne asada, crispy chicken strips, and the unexpected but amazing addition of tater tots that took it to another level. Everything was fresh, hot, and full of flavor, with generous portions that definitely hit the spot. Service was smooth and the vibe was chill. If you're looking for comfort food with bold flavors, this place is a must. Will definitely be back.

    Best Mexican food for a rest stop. I got a huge carne asada burrito. Some people might say it's pricey but after a few hours of driving, you'll be craving this. The service was like any other normal taco shop. Great rest stop all around, especially if you drive a Tesla. A lot of Tesla charging stations and next to a Shell for gas vehicles.

    I honestly did NOT expect this place to be this good. I had literally just finished a meal nearby and only stopped by because I needed to use the restroom. I saw the sign on the door and the little barrier setup, and somehow just ended up walking over to the ordering area. I had zero expectations -- I was basically ready to spend money just to use the bathroom. But wow... the food completely surprised me. The portions are super generous, and everything was packed with flavor. As a Chinese person who really loves Mexican food, I can honestly say this is one of the better Mexican meals I've had. Really hope more people come support this small business -- they deserve it.

    Great quality, great quantity, great value. This Mexican food spot is located just past Barstow on the 15 making it an awesome restaurant stop. Stopped here to just take a breather and stretch but my girlfriend and I ended up stopping inside the shop and bought a few tacos since we were going to use the restroom. Honestly I didn't expect much considering it's a shop located in the middle of "nowhere" with no competition around but I was massively surprised by how delicious the tacos were. The price was similar to what many of the taco stands in my area are charging and they offer a larger selection of meat with awesome amenities. The tripe here was other-worldly. They also had a birria taco which was also quite delicious. The staff there was primarily Spanish-speaking but was able to communicate with us with serviceable English so I didn't feel like any of my needs weren't met. Their restaurant is also extremely clean and they have a very clean restroom also. Super cute and cozy spot for a pit stop. You won't be disappointed by the food here.

    El pastor nachos

    If you come here to charge your Tesla, or need gas (there's a shell next door) give this place a try, worth every bite! The food is cooked to order get the el pastor / carnitas tacos, if you like nacho cheese definitely get the nachos. The chips were hot and crispy the best! Everything we order was delicious! This is one of those places where you should not judge the book by its cover.

    There's a lot of fast food chains along Hwy 15. Why settle for Taco Bell or Del Taco when you can try something different? This taco joint caught my eye with the sombrero & eye patch-wearing skeleton head signage. Every exterior window had mouth-watering pictures of tacos and burritos. It was over 100 degrees today. The air conditioner was broke inside. That didn't stop me from ordering 3 tacos: al pastor, chicken, and carnitas. Service was a bit slow during lunch time. Their tacos are pricier, but tasted much better than the usual fast food versions.

    Horchata in an MGM grand cup. I meant to ask someone why they had MGM cups... Maybe someone else can answer that question?

    I decided to try this place as I was heading home from a trip driving south on the I 15. I made a pitstop to use the restroom and while I was there, I ordered one El Pastore taco and a small Horchata. The place was clean and so were the bathrooms so that was a plus. Whoever owns the lot is very smart as they have installed 20 Tesla chargers in the middle of nowhere... This place is located in Yermo. My taco was delicious. It it was on the smaller side like a street taco however, the meat was perfectly seasoned and grilled, and it had all the right toppings, such as cilantro, onion, and avocado salsa. The restaurant has a salsa bar and also offers additional condiments, such as lime, jalapeños, cucumber, and radishes, along side of three different types of salsa: green, tomatillo, salsa, habanero salsa, and a roasted tomatillo red chili salsa. My taco was perfect. It was hot and the tortillas were made from yellow corn and tasted homemade, but I don't think they were. The meat was tender and seasoned well and I used the roasted tomatillo red sauce and it was very delicious. It was spicy and had a kick but wasn't overpowering. The Horchata was delicious. I could definitely taste a good amount of vanilla in it. I will definitely stop in again. I hope next time they aren't out of Carne Asada or Tripa... Those were the two types of meats that I actually wanted to try. The service was good. The man who took my order was friendly and went out of his way to make sure my taco was wrapped in foil, so it would not get cold while I was taking care of my pitstop (lmao)!! Until next time... Enjoy!

    We stopped to charge our car and had two options in the middle of nowhere - a gas station, or this taco place. Luckily, we chose the taco place, and the tacos were amazing! We did a taco deal and for the amount of tacos and price it was very affordable, and they had a salsa bar where we got to try 4 different salsas, my favorite being the salsa Verde. You order at the counter and they call it out, it came up super quickly. The restaurant itself is a little run down but not too bad. We also had elote in a cup and mac and cheese, but those weren't as good as the tacos. Definitely a stop of convenience, but worth it if you're in the area.

    What are the real hours of operation? Stopped by at 11AM and it was closed.

    Honestly, I would say from Noon till 5p.m. for sure. I get the feeling they are busy on Friday-Sunday, but Monday thru Thursday is a coin toss.… Read more

    Never in a million years would I have thought I would be enjoying taco mix stuffed between two…read morebuns... So apparently this is one of the original Del Tacos that were kept outside the corporate realm remaining in full control by the original franchisee. The carnitas burrito was packed with protein...the Bun Taco was ...wow...I haven't taken a puff weed in ages, well one because I'm trucking, and two I'm too lazy to get bongs, buds, paper all that shenanigans...but I will say this, if I had known this place existed back during the early days of going to community college and lighting one up on the weekends.....this is perfect weed food. Just sayin... Think anyone driving down the i15 should visit this historic site!

    Driving home from Vegas Monday night and needed some grub and a bathroom. Me and my friend decided…read moreon THEE Original Del Taco; at least that's what I've ALWAYS heard. I'm not sure what prompted me to do a search about it but I did.... Say WHAT!? The current location is NOT the original one. (see screenshot) *mind blown* I digress.... I'm sure I've been here many years ago in my early 20's during some of my many road trips to Vegas but I was shocked at how STUFFED FULL all of their items were. My friend said that's what they're known for. I got the bun taco, soft chicken tacos and carnitas burrito. I couldn't believe how huge the chicken taco and carnitas burrito were!! They don't skimp on the cheese either, you can never have too much cheese in my opinion. I could only manage a couple of bite out of the burrito so I brought the rest home for the next day. Each table has their own personal sauce baskets! The bathrooms were clean as was the restaurant. I was just disappointed they didn't have the orange cream shake available while we were there.
