This casual location with indoor & outdoor seating is in the same shopping plaza as Dollar Tree and Stater Bros. Great salsa rojo as well.

Tesla chargers as well. Friendly service & the lady making the food is seriously the goat! You can't go wrong with this place! Peace.

Stopped here on the drive home from Mammoth with very low expectations and very high hunger, which…read moreis honestly the ideal way to discover a place like this. Fatboys Taco sits in what feels like a former gas stop area in Mojave, but it is its own thing, attached to a bar and far better than anything you would expect from a highway pit stop zone. Inside, there are bold murals on the walls that give the place real personality and make it feel intentional rather than accidental. I ordered two birria queso tacos and they were legit. Crispy, cheesy, rich, and gloriously messy in the way birria tacos are supposed to be. The kind of tacos that make you temporarily forget you still have hours of driving ahead of you. This is officially on my mental list of places worth pulling off the highway for. I will absolutely be back the next time I am coming home from Mammoth, even if I am not that hungry.

I was craving Mexican food after a long weekend of camping in the desert so I came to Yelp to look…read morefor a restaurant and this place did not disappoint! Food will cost around the $15-25 dollar range but they come with rice and beans, salad or just a large size that you can eat feel full and/or have leftovers. Free chips and salsa with refills, order guacamole to make it special. This place is the opposite of fast food, you know that the food was prepared with care and the taste just hits the spot. Agua frescas of watermelon was refreshing and sweet, just the right thing to quench your thirst and rehydrate. I ordered street tacos and was happy they had lingua my favorite, along with special meats like buche and tripa. The birria was superb and had the most flavorful consommé to go along with them, I would order this item again. Unfortunately there was no soup on the menu that day, so salad was the only option as a side but there were many dressing options and the lettuce was fresh. Hard to see from the street, the restaurant is in the far right back of the strip mall. Plenty of parking available!

Their food has always been decent to me, I recently got a birria taco plate, and the time before that some different tacos, with different meats. Some were good others seemed super dry! My Al pastor was very dry, along with the chicken taco. I feel like this place sometimes is a hit or miss depending on the day, that's why I have to give it 3 stars this time.

Finding truly great street tacos in a small town can be like spotting Bigfoot... everyone swears…read morethey exist, but you don't always believe it until you see them. Tacos La Villa proved me wrong. My wife and I have been here twice now, and every taco has been outstanding. The lengua is the star of the show--and as someone who orders lengua every chance I get, that's saying something. It's incredibly tender, packed with flavor, and easily the best I've had in the area. Bonus points for being the only place in town that even offers it. The buche is rich and delicious, the carnitas are juicy with just the right amount of crisp, and the fish tacos are so good they deserve their own fan club. No gimmicks. No over-the-top Instagram food. Just authentic, flavorful tacos that keep you thinking about your next visit before you've even finished the last one. Tehachapi keeps surprising me with hidden culinary gems, and Tacos La Villa has absolutely earned its place on that list.

She rated the spice level about an 8/10, and the flavor was excellent. I can't wait to go back and try their Flamin' Hot Burrito. Anything with Hot Cheetos, I'm in! It's also really important to me that a restaurant is clean, and this one definitely was. We will definitely be coming back.
