    Bathroom door bad graffiti
    Tony J.

    Pro: I order a Burrito mojado azada, meet and salsa was good, my kids order tacos azada alpastor they said they were good. Great presentation 5 Salsa Bar 5 Con: The wet burrito was someone salty, the avocado too. 3 Jamaica drink is not home made. They run out off Jamaica and Horchata by 5:30pm on a Sunday, 3 Service is ok, Luis ( name on receipt) is rushing you to the point he got the order wrong when we went back to let him know he said we order wrong, he should be more humble. 3 They place is decent, they play Mexican music, at a decent level, you have to clean your on table or pray the previous customer didn't spill. 4 One Restroom clean, but is all graffiti and because of that I am writing this review the graffiti on the door is bad top to bottom. Is a black door how hard is it to painted is Black it would take 10 min the most. 3

    Yikes.

    Been coming here years, since they opened. this place was NEVER somewhere where I had to check my order before I left. It has always been delicious and affordable. I've had food from here, no less than 100 times in the past decade. I work in this city and go there for lunch and dinner often. Lately....sad to say, they must have hired all new staff. I don't recognize ANYONE. My order was messed up for the first time ever today, the food was subpar. flavorless and GREASY. They shorted me 4 tacos and I had to drive back to get them to correct my order. The tacos I got once I had to drive back to correct my order, were 50% smaller than the ones I originally picked up. And to add insult to injury, the guacamole that was laid on top of of my quesadilla gringo, had a MASSIVE chunch of unripened avocado on it. Did they think no one would notice? Whoever owns this business needs to check his staff FAST. There are MANY other taco places in Paramount and we have a lot of options. This is shameful.

    Chicken nachos yum!
    Ozzy R.

    I ordered the chicken nachos. I originally wanted the birria but it was sold out. So maybe that's a good thing. Every time I pass by, there's people lined up and to me, it means the food is good. Back to the nachos: They were well portioned. Chicken was legit. Guacamole had good chunks of avocado. That tells me they use real ingredients. It was a nice color which to me, means it's fresh. Look at my review to the other nachos I had from a wack place some weeks ago. That guacamole is trash. Anyway, I really recommend them if you want some good nachos. Smashed pinto beans, sour cream, guacamole, chicken and melted cheese. Pretty simple but less is more. No need for the vomit looking nachos like my other review.

    This was my to go to place for tacos all the time until yesterday. I don't know what happened to this place if they changed management or what . My daughter wanted to use the restroom , OMG it was disgusting ! I lost my appetite we left and was so disgusted we didn't even eat our food ! I feel like the restroom speaks volumes on how clean the rest of the restaurant might be . YELP IS NOT LETTING ME POST ALL THE PICTURES

    Asada Torta $10!! Great tasty meal!! Always hits the spot!!

Super fresh, loaded, and jam-packed with flavor. The tacos gobernadores were another 10/10: cheesy, savory, with perfectly tender shrimp. I also tried Sinaloa-style machaca for the first time, served with refried beans and queso fresco. It was a little on the drier side, but still delicious and packed with veggies. The camarones a la diabla had such a flavorful sauce without being overly spicy, served with rice, beans, and flour tortillas. And of course, their tasty micheladas paired perfectly with everything! Definitely check out El Sinaloense and thank me later! One waitress was a lil rude passive aggressive but the next 1 that actually took care of us was very attentive , friendly and helpful.

We actually asked for one of the dishes to be replaced, thinking maybe it was just a bad batch, but the replacement came out just as salty as the first one. At that point, there wasn't much we could do. The chefs gotta lay off the salt And the water... I honestly don't know what happened there, but it tasted like I was drinking straight from a water hose attached to the la river bed . I've had better-tasting water in Mexico. The meals were also way overpriced for the quality and quantity we received. As someone who genuinely appreciates Mexican food, this experience was especially disappointing. I'm sorry, but based on what I was served, I just can't consider this genuine Mexican food. I can't recommend this place If you're hungry and looking for a good Mexican meal, I'd suggest searching for another place and skipping this one.

If it weren't for the very loud music playing, I would not have known this was a Mexican restaurant. We ordered Fish and Shrimp Ceviche tostadas, but it was ok not the best I ever had.

What prompts M E Perihuete to soak a hard Tostada shell with water? unbelievable! The Chilaquiles were bad. They were so spicy I could not taste my food. Overall, the service was bad the lady who served us was busy laughing and giggling with the male customers instead of attending to her tables. I have to say the obvious about the waitresses here, to be as nice as I can put it, their lips stand out as plungers, the chest, and behind well, so obvious they were not normal... The service was bad and the food was not the best. Pricey. Plenty of parking.

Place was nearly empty, we still went completely unattended for long stretches of time, orders were all wrong, and the waitress instead of fixing it was argumentative & completely wrong.

Instead of then fixing and apologizing she blamed the chef. When my spouse pointed out what was wrong about her order, she asked us what she wanted her to do with it? Maybe take it back and fix it? It was almost like she was blaming us and expecting us to just take what they brought us even if it was wrong. NOBODY IS TRYING TO PAY FOR THE PLEASURE TO FIGHT WITH THEIR INCORRECT WAITRESS. If you are going to be arguing with your paying clients, the least you could do is be right. They still tried to bill me for incorrect food returned and uneaten. Owner started brining up her video, but failed to address the countless problems and issues that were all over that "video". Eventually the food that was wrong and that was returned uneaten was refunded but it pales in comparison what the afternoon cost me. Please consider going elsewhere and their health code is a C which I did not know.

They also have a good selection of merchandise and food options, plus a drive-thru, which I think is really convenient. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed in the coffee. It tasted very bland. I thought adding more sugar might help, but nope. I honestly think it just needed more cinnamon or a stronger overall flavor. Thankfully, it was only $3.80. I'll probably come back another time and try something else on the menu. I do hope they improve the cafe de olla, though, because that used to be the reason I visited their San Fernando location almost every day on my way to work.
