Second time I came for Banda brunch, my first experience was horrible because it took me twenty minutes to even get noticed by the female bartenders ( 2 of them) while waiting I decided to get a shot instead of a drink so it wouldn't take another twenty minutes. Was hoping the second time would be better, it wasn't. The male friends I was with got immediately served, and my friend and I waited a solid 30 minutes for a drink and when it did come (a classic margarita) it was so sweet, and they didn't make a classic one because it barely had lime and it had gran malo no triple sec. We then wanted a shot instead bar staff has no idea what's behind them in the shelf. And gave us the wrong order. And it top it off I was charged for the two margaritas. Wasn't given a receipt and they tipped themselves out and they didn't give me a copy to even sign. Terrible service, Banda was great tho read more

Saw this place on Social Media and wanted to check it out for myself. They go all out with their Halloween decor so I'm excited to see how they decorate for other holidays. The bar is located in the front of the restaurant so you can either enjoy it there or grab a seat afterwards. Similar to the bar, you place your food order up front and they will bring it to your table. There is a large seating area with a stage for live music and salsa bar. The food and drinks were good, prices are very reasonable and the staff were friendly. I really enjoyed the overall vibe of the place and can't wait to go back! read more

First time coming here, saw their page through Tik Tok and after being at the haunted house I decided to stop by and give this place a try. I am pleasantly surprised at how good the tacos de suadero are, if you tried the ones in CDMX, you know it's hard to find a legit place that serves tasty suadero. I also tried their blue corn quesadilla that had pumpkin flowers and it was also delicious! The ambiance is pretty chill for a Saturday night, I'll definitely be back here on a date or with friends. The only downside id say would be parking. read more

As someone who grew up in this area, it's nice to see how far this area has come about. This was my first time here and the location is super big. The artwork from the moment you enter the parking and then when walking throughout the restaurant is filled with artists that one grew up seeing or listening too and the colors are super vibrant. As for the food, the wait to order the food was a bit long but having live mariachi made it worth the wait. The tacos are filled with a lot of meat instead of what one usually would get at another location. The tacos de lengua were tender and flavorful. The quesabirrias could have a little more flavor and the consume was very oily but overall, I would come back to this location again. read more

This spot has a huge seating area, fun decorations and hella good deals. I went in for the $1 taco day.

i was part of the Selena event, they told us to be there by 6:30 to shop??? ok , when i get there they wasn't ready, the ticket comes with a complementary drink, I ask for a margarita, a simple cocktail but taste just like pure sugar, ok so then my daughter ask me if a want a real drink and I said yes, she order 2 margaritas with Patron and she paid more then 60 dollars, yes for 2 margaritas , not even at the Saint Regis sf , they told her to go and sit and they would bring the drinks to her, when i tried them once again they tasted just like pure sugar , I went and ask them to remake them, yes she did and tasted better so overall the event was nice but the drinks are super expensive and I don't mind to pay but the drinks taste bad!! I was so excited for the place , sadly i would never go back!!! read more

Almost a soft 4 stars. Tacos el Rulas is taco truck style food but in a large warehouse type venue w/ beautiful murals on the wall. There is a stage and it seems like they sometimes have live music some nights/days. This particular day, there was no live music however they had mariachi music blaring on the speakers. Candidly a little too loud!!!! The music was at a volume level for a large party of 200+ people yet there was no more than 15 people dining. Friendly customer service at both the food counter and the bar. My Spanish is mas o menos so I really appreciate the attendant patiently answering my questions around the menu that is 100% in Spanish. The loaded baked potato was certainly a full meal and filled w/ delicious flavor. Loved the option of different meat, I went w/ the Al pastor and it didn't disappoint. The tacos were okaaaay. The carnitas was my favorite out of also Al pastor and carne asada. However I do feel like the meet lacked flavor and seasoning. Also I didn't think the tacos were worth the $$. The highlight for me was certainly the margarita flight. Loved how there was a sample of watermelon, lime, guava and mango. The parking lot is a little small and crowded w/ taco trucks, vintage cars and honestly what looks like junk. But what is cool is there is plenty of seating inside in what is kind of like a warehouse, cafeteria and almost rave like vibe. read more

Tacos el Rulas was a good surprise for me. There is a small parking lot and at first, I was doubtful about this restaurant because of the limited parking I thought it would be a small restaurant inside. Surprisingly it has a big interior with a stage and a bar. Beautiful wall art encompasses the culture and sets the vibes. Music is set to fit the tone and I can assume the restaurant hosts live shows on the stage. The service I have no complaints about because when my group arrived there was not a big line. I feel the setup of ordering first and paying, seating yourself, and then bringing your order to you, works perfectly. I saw many reviews complaining about this setup, but I had no issue. The wait time was fairly quick and the staff were friendly and kind. The food was flavorful and I would return to try more menu items. The Papa Loca was my favorite and the burrito was my least favorite. I also love that they offer a toppings/salsa bar that is self-serve. They have a variety of toppings including cucumbers, habanero onions, and multiple salsas. 4 stars due to lack of consistency in the temperature of the fresh Aguas frescas, as some had ice and some were room temperature. Also, for the error in our order where we were double charged for an item, and the burrito was mediocre. read more

Was skeptical cause the bad reviews but 10/10 experience **heads up they do go all out for Halloween & if it isn't your cup of tea then don't go** Took our toddler and she loved it!!! Fresh tortillas & flavorful food On the pricier side but overall worth it, you're paying for an experience Our tab was like $90 for my husband, me & our toddler but we got dessert which the shakes are also a 10/10 Service was fine But what took the cake was the scenery!! read more

Lots of variety of foods to try from thru have good deserts too not to mention there is a bar . I really liked when they worked for the taco truck I always liked their taco Tuesday's as they done with plenty of sides . They are open until 2 am if I'm not mistaken. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for quite some time, and I've finally got the chance to do so. As soon as you walk into this place you order first and they give you some chicharrones on the house and a number so they can bring your food. Micheladas had good flavor that licuachelada was so big I didn't think I was gonna be able to finish it. Molcajete was packed and oh so flavorful, the hot Cheeto tacos were really good, they sure don't skimp on the meat, I like the added fries they give you. The only thing I didn't like were the papas de camaron, it was pretty much dry and the shrimp were overcooked, it lacked flavored I would honestly skip on this one. Also do skip on the Michelada de camaron just get a regular michelada, again shrimp were overcooked, hence the minus star I'm giving. It could be just my luck, or that's the way they cook them. Other than that everything else was delicious, drinks are good and this place is such a vibe to come hang with friends and listen to some good music or admire the beautiful murals while eating some good food. I'm looking forward to come back again to try their other items! read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would! Food was disgusting for the price! We ordered a torta and a shrimp plate and a drink total came out to $60. Shrimp plate only came with 6 shrimps, for it being $22 I expected more. The torta was hella dry and had no flavor, the bread was so thick and the torta barely had any meat! Never will I come back and seems like everyone had the same experience, I'm sure we got food poisoning from here as well because my whole family had the runs after eating here read more

We came in and were told we had to order than sit and wait for our food no problem. The menu is 100% spanish. A KIDS MEAL is 18$!! For tenders and fries! Its SUPER DARK! In this place might as well be pitch black dark like a club! We ordered 7 tacos, a kids meal, small side of rice, and 2 water bottles and the total was 70$!!!! OVERPRICED!!! The meat had NO FLAVOR! Didnt even taste seasoned at all. We paid for sour cream and didnt receive it, we were told i had to stand in line to get it. I stood in like for 5 mins for sour cream that was paid for instead of the waiter going to get it. It was pretty empty when we went other than 2 other tables. We wont be returning. I would of went to the taco truck around the corner and paid 30$ for better food! I see why they are empty! read more

Don't know if their recent rise on social media is intentional or not but either way, good for them. I've driven past this place a thousand times and only decided to check it out after seen on an instagram reel. I was super excited and that excitement was immediately contained as soon as I arrived. They have a parking lot but it's small considering how fast they're blowing up on line; street parking is easy with a walk. Upon entering, depending on the time, you may find yourself stuck in a line out the door and that's because you order your food before sitting down. There's an entirely separate line for drinks. I absolutely hate establishments with this kind of operational setup. If your party is big enough I highly recommend you divide and conquer and one of you snatch a table towards the entrance if you came to talk because otherwise tables closer to the stage are hella loud. The line for drinks moved quickly when birthday parties weren't taking up too much space and time. Don't mean to hate, I get it. The lighting, the music, the drinks I found myself wanting to dance but like I came for dinner and didn't know that I was basically entering a warehouse turned eatery that could easily be a club. The food and drinks were fine. I appreciate the chunks of pineapple that came with the pastor tacos. The carnitas quesatacos had plenty of meat. Tasted some papa locas that were yummy but wish they had crema. The drinks were underwhelming and expensive. FYI you have to pay a deposit to have your drink in a special cup. My friend ordered the margarita flight and we assumed it would come in an airplane as seen on social media but that didn't happen, so maybe there's a deposit there too, I don't know. It wouldn't have been an issue but the margaritas on the flight were lukewarm and we had to ask for a cup of ice to drink them. Glad I came, enjoyed the vibe. Don't need to come back. read more

if you're looking for bold, flavor-packed street-style Mexican eats that feel like they came straight from a fiesta in CDMX, this place is crazy fun. The family behind El Rulas grew it from a taco truck into a full-on taqueria with handmade tortillas, juicy tacos, massive loaded baked potatoes, tortas, and birria that'll make your taste buds do a happy dance -- seriously, you can see the love in every bite. read more

The place was very huge and a lot of space to eat ... the food is pricey and the menu board is in Spanish .. wasn't sure what was what when ordering which was hard .. the customer service was good and the food was very authentic and fresh ... I had a steak torta and wish it has tomatoes but they don't have tomatoes at all which is a disappointment and no lettuce.. my favorite was the birria tacos which was very good .. the shrimp fries needed more seasoning on it and the mulita was full of meat but wish the 2 shells were fried a bit harder because it was hard to pick up to eat ... the drinks were ok too pricey and couldn't really taste the alcohol in the margarita flights it taste like juice ... read more

Another Instagram restaurant found!!!!! The outside is super nice. All the decor was nice! It just draws your attention! Great job on that! THE FOOD HERE IS IMMACULATE!!!!!! Everything was perfect! I have no complaints about the food at all. The portions were huge. My family and I got two things off the menu each and we didn't eat everything there. We had food for the next day, literally lol The guys taking our order was very sweet and helpful! Appreciate them especially because most things on the menu were in Spanish but we had no problem ordering at all. They also have a truck that you can order from outside but we definitely got the full experience with eating inside Horchata 10/10!! Now the alcohol drinks ... for a $30 flight .. I'm not expecting to be super intoxicated but it tasted like premade juice. I don't think any of the drinks was worth it for the price but it's super cute but it wasn't worth it to me. That's literally my only complaint. I didn't get a photo of the salsa bar but that was very convenient! I love this place and I can't wait to go back. Thank you guys soooooooo much! read more

I like their frescas. You can see all the food being made, lots of seating , outdoor vibes, and music playing outside. It's a nice setup. I ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were ok. I thought the $18 torta was a little pricey. Tacos are good. I would definitely come back.. read more

My first time coming here and I'm sad to say well first let me start by saying The ambiance is very nice but the tacos were very bland not seasoned at all the hot Cheeto shells didn't really taste like anything either the Cheeto sushi roll was a 10/10 it had a lot more flavor than the tacos I would definitely try that again the cocktails are a lot smaller than I assumed everything is a bit over priced for the portions they serve read more

Customer Service matters!!! These trucks are parked at a new location off 23rd St. I stopped by on my way home, the gentlemen taking the orders wasn't friendly at all. I placed my order and then when they were prepping my order they called out the wrong number of tacos. I then said, "oh, I order 3 & 3," the same guy that took the order and who was in the middle of helping another customer said, "no you didn't! You order 2 & 3." It wasn't what he said but the way he said it and how intentional he was to make sure everyone heard. He could have said it differently. the rest of the employees looked at me a little embarrassed. The food had no flavor, nothing. They are big tacos with a lot of meat but not good at all. The tortillas felt dry and stale. I think they have a lot of potential, specially in the location they are in and their setup. But they must polish their customer service and recipes. read more

Currently Best spot in Richmond. The pastor taste like pastor. Service is great. Food is consistently always made with the same quality. Great location. Hand made tortillas! Not greasy. I'm not sure why people are saying it's bland, maybe they don't like salsa or salt. There is a packed salsa bar. I didn't go here because of hype like other reviewers on here. I've been here more than once i don't think it's smart to judge a place after one visit. read more

Tacos el Rulas - Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Richmond, California

Let me start by saying... don't believe the hype. I've noticed that videos online have been circulating gassing this place up on the burritos and tacos, but unless you like your meat bland and underwhelming, this ain't it. Bought 9 tacos of different types (regular, vampiros, quesabirria) and all of them missed. Now the food here isn't nasty, it's just sad. Threw a lot of salsa on the tacos and they still weren't doing what they had to do - the only things that saved them were the pineapples and some Tapatio sauce I had at home. While the service was decent and the space large and open (in a lot), the quality didn't match the prices (AKA overpriced and underseasoned). If you see the influencers on IG hyping this up, sorry but they lyin'. read more

Hands down, the place is beautiful, the murals the bar, the music. The downfall is that they put so much on the looks and not enough effort on making the food taste good. It's dry with no flavor. Was really looking forward to this place picking up but instead it's going downhill. read more
