    Tacos

    Best tacos in Colton, hands down! Quick service, fresh ingredients, friendly staff. It's absolutely amazing!

    Birria Combo
    Kyub C.

    The food is delicious and the portion size was great! I even had enough leftovers to take back for two more meals. The service was very friendly and quite quick. I quite enjoyed the atmosphere, most importantly they had the World Cup to watch!

    Mar y Tierra taco , Gordita
    Ashley D.

    one of the best taco spots in the IE! everything always tastes so delicious and fresh. the mar y tierra taco is a must try as it is packed with so many ingredients. they have a great salsa bar with around 6 salsa options and so many toppings.

    Shrimp taco

    Honestly , I stopped after seeing this spot go viral . Tried they'd fish & shrimp tacos and their endless sauce & toppings bar self serve station. Everything was Amazing from their customer service to food quality. I came in for their fish & shrimp tacos special hands down it was Perfect!!! This place was super packed , customer service was excellent and entire staff was great! I'd highly recommend it . Both shrimp & fish tacos were phenomenal! They offer grilled or fried options.

    Rice and beans with a small horchata and green salsa. Ate the tacos too fast for pics lol

    This place is legit. Hands down best salsa and rice and beans which are really the cornerstones to a great Mexican meal. Tacos are always on point from the homemade tortillas to the meat options and every protein is dressed up perfectly. Agua Frescas....i can't say one single bad thing about this place my only warning is its small inside so ordering to go is usually the best option but you seriously can't go wrong here. And the service is wonderful. Lovely place!!

    Six dollars for this taco waited over 30 minutes for three tacos like this. Where is the rest of the meat?

    Super oily fish burrito, overpriced and very mediocre.

    This was my first time here at Tacos El Callejon in Colton, CA, and I was very excited due to the good Yelp Reviews and when I went on a Friday night the place was popping and very busy. Unfortunately, the food here is so bad and my first choice was to Del Taco because when you go there you don't have any high expectations. My wallet is now $50 lighter SMDH. 4/5 Jamaica Agua Fresca not too bad. It was on point, but I like mine with more tart. 1/5 All of their salsas are too salty not to my liking, especially their cilantro salsa, which was way too salty WTH. 2/5 2 chicken tacos Although the tortilla was OK, the chicken had an OK grilled flavor, it was bland and flavorless. 1/5 Fish burrito. They got a huge piece of fish, but it was too oily flavor and soggy and the burrito itself was bland and flavorless. It would have been better without the beans and put some tarter slaw. I took only a couple of bites and threw it all away, how sad. 1/5 Carne A$$ada burrito was so oily, the carne A$$ada had a nice grilled flavor but lacked in flavor and marinade and most of the carne A$$ada was overcooked. I took 2 bites and threw in the towel SMDH. 1/5 Carne A$$ada Mulita. This was also bland and flavorless. At least the shell was crunchy and that's about it. Service 3/5 Service was OK, had an unsanitary situation and told the Amiga about it, but she seemed to brush it off and take no action. I called the store many times but no one picked up. I wanted to ask if any of their customers asked for any kind of refund because it's sad I can't even finish these 2 burritos. Instead, I had to throw them all away because it was that bad. Not to critique the hard-working ppl more, but even Vallarta supermarket, their Taquería, has better flavor and I can finish all the things I ordered from there. I wish Tacos El Callejon nothing but the best, but for me, this is one and done.

    The food was very tasty! I tried three out of four tacos on the menu. The surf & turf , The pork belly, The El chilango tacos. The have a large salsa selection, along with lemons, radishes, spicy carrots, onions, and limes. Hopefully they open more locations soon! This would be a great addition to Redlands! Go and experience the delicious food for yourself!!

    Here's the receipt of the order just to show proof
    Jamaar C.

    I don't usually leave negative reviews, but this experience at Tacos El Callejon needs to be shared. I visited with a client and spent about $51. I ordered a surf & turf burrito to-go, and my client ordered a Cali burrito for here, along with two different drinks. Very straightforward order. They gave us the wrong burritos. My client actually started eating the one placed in front of him and noticed shrimp inside -- that's how we realized it was mine. I went back to the counter calmly and asked if they could remake my burrito since I wasn't comfortable eating food that had already been bitten. They agreed and brought out what was supposed to be a new burrito. Before leaving, I checked it -- and the top was already open and looked like it had been folded back together. It appeared to be the same burrito that had already been eaten from. At this point, I had to go back a third time to address the issue. Instead of an apology or concern, I was met with attitude and a lack of accountability. It felt like I was being treated as if I had done something wrong for simply asking for a fresh, untouched meal. On top of that, the overall interaction left me feeling uncomfortable. The tone, body language, and lack of professionalism from the owner and staff created an environment that didn't feel welcoming, and it's hard to ignore how that came across. To make matters worse, after sharing my experience publicly, the owner continued to go back and forth with me online rather than taking accountability or offering any kind of apology. You can see the interaction on my social media: @IEtryguy. Mistakes can happen -- I understand that. But attempting to serve food that appears to have already been handled or eaten, combined with the way the situation was handled in person and afterward, is unacceptable. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I won't be returning.

    La Papa with carne asada.
    Vincent A.

    The food was delicious. Online order and phone ordering was impossible during the lunch hour. We ordered a Callejon bowl with carnitas and a bake potato with carne asada. The portions were large and the offer a free garnish bar. I will definitely be back.

    You absolutely must check out this hidden taco spot! It was packed on a Sunday evening, but there wasn't much seating, and most people were ordering for pickup. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I got two cabeza tacos and a La Papa with chorizo. The cabeza was so flavorful! They also have a salsa bar with about 5/6 choices, plus tons of toppings to choose from.

    Jamaica very good
    Jorge G.

    I've been hearing about this spot for a minute so I decided to try it. Let me tell you it didn't disappoint. They have specials during the week like Mondays it $10 burritos and Thursday birria tacos. I didn't get to take a picture because this place was busy. They have traditional and premium meats. I had a little of both and they didn't disappoint. The guy that was in the front recommended a few different things, I got lengua, carnitas, tripas extra crispy and a mulita de asada. Great flavor a must try if you're in the area. Also they have a delicious salsa bar. The marinated onions with jalapeños is amazing.

    The best taco spot!!! Everything delicious, home made tortillas, salsas are super good, tripas, and carne asada tacos are super good!

Here is why you need to check out Hungry Bear Tacos: * Handmade Tortillas: You can really taste the difference; the tortillas are fresh, authentic, and have the perfect texture. * The Quesadilla: It is huge and loaded with melted cheese and savory meat--definitely a must-order. * The Vibe: Their truck is one of the most impressive I've seen, complete with a TV that makes waiting for your food actually enjoyable. * Top-Tier Service: The staff was really nice and provided great service, making the whole experience even better.

Ive…read moretried them several times now and in my very unprofessional opinion It was really disappointing. Im a person WITH tastebuds. Don't give me mayo people tacos and mayo people salsa. Why go bland with your flavors? Why even put up the food stand in the first place if your meat taste like it was used to clean the table with. Make it make sense. It doesn't. If you came and got lucky one day thats good for you but ive tried their tacos regularly. Its 90% disappointment. I got them cause it was the closest thing to me. I work like right down the street. Even my co workers say the same. The one with the tortilla lady on it is a little better. Try that one. The best are in el monte. Karinas tacos i think. Idk the name really I just know how to get there. And only when im going, because to name streets ‍‍ but I think its near peck. Its next to a T intersection. And there is a small shopping center. Its also a food truck. but yeah. This place is good if your hungry and dont care about flavor. So like if you were a literal hungry bear. Just eating to eat. I hate writing and actually posting reviews but I really just felt like it had to be said.

    I must have gotten the wrong things to order cause what I got last evening was not the move…read more Apparently I should have gotten their fish dishes cause I got their carne asada tacos and it was interesting. Let's start with the tacos. They were very greasy and suuuuuper salty. I like my carne asada to be flavorful but whoever marinated the meat that day was either heavy on the salt or over marinated. I'm leaning on over marinated cause the texture of the asada was terrible. It was mushy and stringy when probably mean it marinated too long. Maybe the choice of meat was had too? It just tasted like ground beef and not flap meat like most places do it. It was the same story for the California burrito. I love a good California. Probably one of my favorite burritos to get. But Bahia was not it. Again same problem with the meat. Overly salty and meat texture was off. Ironically enough, the parts that didn't have any meat were very good. Now when it came down the service the lady behind the counter was very nice and the restaurant itself was very clean. So I do give them props for that. Maybe I'll come back and try their seafood/fish dishes since that seems to be what they are known for but if it's based of the asada, wasn't a good first impression.

Although their prices are high, $16 for a torta, it's usually worth it, because their portions are quite generous. Earlier today, I ordered a torta to go, and I ended up extremely disappointed when I got home. It had literally half the meat, half the beans, and half the cheese that it normally does. This was the first time I'd been disappointed with their food, but I decided to call and express my dissatisfaction. I was passed to the manager who handled the situation in the most unprofessional way. I explained the issue to him, and he insisted that my torta today had the same amount of meat, beans, and cheese as always. I disagreed with him, and he responded angrily, "Everybody makes mistakes!" He raised his voice and repeated it a couple of times. It was completely bizarre that he chose to speak to me as if I was the one who'd done something wrong. It's very childish to do a subpar job and then get upset and frustrated when you're called on it. An adult apologizes and pledges to not blow it again. Anyhow, I don't tolerate disrespectful people so I'm done. I won't spend another penny there.
