    Carne asada tacos

    I do not recommend the carne asada tacos from this place. Their fish tacos were good the first few times but today they looked bad. The staff is friendly but that's not enough to get me to come back.

    Always crispy and full of flavor, for $3.25 for two ($1.63/ea), they're still value

    4.5 Stars If you live south of the 60 and near the 605, now you have a Taco Ensenada! I've been to the East LA location a thousand times (good days at ELAC) and regularly Alhambra. This is the same vibe, except they have a new interior with AC! I'd actually sit down and eat here if I wasn't getting to go; very clean and AC does blow cold, I think this is their best location interior-wise. They even serve Sinaloa-style sushi! Iykyk, taco Tuesday/Thursday. They have giant fish fillets (rarely I get small ones) fried golden brown with fresh ass crispy cabbage and pico. One thing I really like about Taco Ensenada is their veggies and salsas are always fresh. Their asada has got to be one of the best for a chain taqueria, despite being a seafood spot. I like it better than Baja Cali, Pepe's, Alberto's/Alfredo's, King Taco. It has a meaty, juicy, not dry/overcooked bite. They chop them into big chunks too, so that's a plus. Great asada for being flat top grilled. Their carnitas are also pretty good for a spot that doesn't specialize, very juicy and not overly salty. Idk why I like their salsa so much but please give me a cup, I'll drink it all with or without chips.

    This place is crazy good! A friend brought me here and I usually go to el atacor this place blew it out the water! I ordered a burrito Mojado with asada the price was reasonable and the taste was so good! The taste and the price definately beats el atacor! I will be coming back for more :) also comes with complimentary lemons, jalapeños, and salsa. Yum

    I know it's a mariscos place, but they make some great tacos de tripa. Los de buche estan ricos también.

    Carnitas soft taco

    Although this is reviewed, please be aware my taste buds may be different from yours so go try it out for yourself. That being said, I decided to try the other special they had on Thursday 2x1 soft tacos. You can choose between Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Carnitas and Chicken. First let me say ALL the soft tacos had a lot of meat for the price. They add double tortilla so the taco don't fall apart. The Carne Asada...I can tell this was cooked ahead of time. The meat was rather dry and didn't really have a taste. Chef Merrito would have gone a long way. (If you know the seasoning, Then you know) The Carnitas...Wasn't really how Carnitas are. These seemed like they were cooked in a crock pot or . The meat was real stringy and not fried and crispy. The Al Pastor was good but it has a strong chorizo taste so if you are heavy into chorizo you will like it. So what I'm trying to say is this place isn't for me. A lot of people come here and I'm glad they support this business. The customer service is great, the place is clean, they have a salsa bar (we love that) and the prices are affordable. It's not for me but everyone is different. Come try for yourself and support small business in our city of Pico Rivera!

    Disgusting fish tacos and they forgot the crema. The asada burritos were a meat with lots of fat. Will never return to this location.

I ordered the spicy Picositos Verdes and the chicharrón de queso--both were delicious! The staff was super friendly, the restaurant was spotless, and the AC was flowing (a must!). I also loved the cute little tables and the unique location inside the old Duran Bakery, with the original sign still up. Such a cool touch! Definitely worth checking out if you're craving authentic Mexican food!

I remember a video a restaurant serving chilaquiles but in Pico Rivera,I using Yelp to find the restaurant bingo found it the restaurant called Taquearte California/Duran Mexican Bakery in one building. The restaurant cross between Rosemead Blvd and Beverly Blvd in shopping center on the left there's plenty parking on the street. Found parking just walking distance from the restaurant right ways we notice the restaurant is packed but there's a sign to have a seat and wait. We got a staff member hand a menu and order to the cashier. We look at the menu then we notice people were coming in and getting in line behind us. My wife order the Verdes classics not spicy with a egg on top. I order the same item but with egg and steak m,the eggs and steak are $4.50 each then we order our drinks she got Jamaica and I got a Mexican Coke both are refreshing with a meal are having. We're surprise our meals just arrived at the table so quick my wife couldn't wait to tasted the chilaquiles she love the chilaquiles she this were the best chilaquiles I ever tasted she please. First the chili Verde sauce amazing good so much flavor with right citrus acid in sauce that make the sauce good,but chips were crunchy and hold up to the sauce and cheese add more intense flavors to the dish with egg make everything creamy with Yolk it so good. If like chilaquiles you need to come to Taquearte California in Pico Rivera. The staff at the Taquearte California were amazing great with patience and friendly we also give thanks to the cooks and the staff in kitchen thank you.

SO MUCH SHRIMP! Mom had bacon and eggs. Served w seasoned chips and house salsa. 5 outta 5 and then some. Service was 10 outta 10.

Not stylish or festive ... but also not loud or off putting either. Basic. 4/5 Food: Traditional and comforting....generous portions. Ordered the chile verde/chile colorado from the chef specialities section of menu....our lovely server Bertha pointed it out since my cousin wanted to try both.....I had the very cheesy chile relleno.....came with generous portion of beans and rice...it was great for me nothing too salty but the two rellenos were only lukewarm tho the cheeze was well melted....it was good and hearty 4/5......chips and salsa free....the chips had a Doritos style color dusting of red 5/5 some kind of spice maybe??...it was fresh and crunchy and kinda thick, we liked it plus the salsa was not hot just tangy....we asked for Pico de Gallo but they don't serve it a la carte apparently. It comes as part of an entree, but never found out which one. Turns out the cook/owner was once the executive chef at Angel Stadium. So food was solid, traditional and nothing fancy nouvelle or la de da...nothing crazy experimental...just good solid Mex that will satisfy a craving. The Jamaica was not too sweet not too sour....not watered down...light and refreshing....wish I had asked for a refill or maybe they don't do refills on agua frescos, I don't know. Very nice extensive menu. Plenty of free parking. Tucked in the corner of a strip mall on Roaemead Blvd. Not easily visible from the street in any direction. So pay attention to your GPS.
