    Tacos Dorados
    Michael D.

    Tacos Los Carnales is one of my go to taco spots. Everything here is made fresh to order and served hot. The meats are well seasoned and tender. The rice is flavorful and moist but not too mushy. The beans are delicious, although I do suspect they use meat broth to flavor them for my vegetarians. My go to plates are the tacos dorados and birria tacos. The avocado on the tacos is always soft and adds just the right amount of creaminess. Make sure to check this spot out when you get a chance!

    I've eaten their food in the past before but this is my 1st time actually coming here and ordering. It's kinda hidden on Mission Blvd in the city of Montclair but it's also kind of a gem.. it's a cool little spot to eat when ur hangry for some tacos. Great service from the staff & delicious foods.

    I stop by here a lot on my lunch breaks. It's one of the better taco spots in Montclair. Food is tasty, reasonably priced, and service is fairly quick. They recently added outdoor seating too which is nice. Usually my go to at any taco place is carne asada but the al pastor here is so good! It has small pieces of pineapple in it but it's not overly sweet or anything.

    Thought I should give an update since it has been a while since I reviewed this place. Still one of my favorite Mexican food places to go to around the area. In 5 years there is much change indoors, and they do also have outdoor seating if anyone prefers that as well. The food here I can usually say is pretty good.. I just think sometimes depending on who is preparing the food, it could be inconsistent. For example I ordered Al pastor tacos (which are really good btw), it didn't have any onions or cilantro, but the previous time it would have it. I would say just to try to ask for certain things just to double check you have what you need. One sad update is that they no longer sell tostadas anymore.. or at least the person that took my order told me that. This was one of my favorite items here and i am really sad they took it out.. I would still recommend this place. Just make sure if you order from the phone that you ordered at the right location since they don't only have one location. Until next time!

The Queso Fundido with chorizo is also one of the best! The live band entertainment on Tuesdays changes weekly, which keeps things fun and exciting. Unfortunately, there wasn't a band last Tuesday, but these things happen. Taco Tuesdays can get crowded very quickly, so I definitely recommend making reservations, especially for parties of four or more. Indoor seating fills up fast, and you may be left with outdoor seating. During hot weather, the patio can feel quite humid, and the outdoor chairs can become uncomfortable after sitting for a while. Service is decent and about what you'd expect when the restaurant is busy. Overall, we enjoy coming here with friends for the food, happy hour, and lively atmosphere.

The service was attentive, recieved recommendations and the communication between lunch break/shift change was great . Went with the Baja shrimp tacos that were lightly fried but grilled is also an option . The Chipotle sauce was good, and the size of the tacos were filling with 3 . They also have an outdoor patio for seating which on cooler evenings look appealing. The crowd is a nice mix of college, families and people looking to have a nice evening . Would recommend it to someone wanting to try a new place .

    We absolutely love this place and decided to come for our anniversary. I'll preface this by saying…read morethe food taste was amazing, like always. But some shady charges or maybe we'll call it miscommunication just rubbed me the wrong way. I always order the mole chicken enchiladas and my wife (being vegetarian) asks for the same dish but if the enchiladas can be vegetable or cheese. Apparently this means a 8$ up charge? We've done this many times in the past and always been charged the same price for both. I asked the server at the end "the veggie version is 8$ more expensive than chicken?" And he just shrugged and said yes. Just found it interesting that a meat dish would be 8$ less than a purely cheese/veggie dish. Especially since done this in the past with no issue. I also asked for "hot sauce" for my dish. They brought out a spicier house salsa as the hot sauce...totally understandable and the salsa here is usually free. Apparently it's a 4$ "chipotle sauce" that the waiter did not inform me would be charged. I would've easily just said I want tapatio or no "hot sauce". I used maybe a teaspoon for 4$. I told the waiter this when we questioned the bill and he just shrugged. These may seem like small inconveniences but when they seem like they intentionally don't tell you the details and then when called out about it just kinda shrug it off, it was a disappointing end to an otherwise tasty dinner. We love it here and will certainly be back but it just sucks that I have to be extra cautious & skeptical when ordering from now on.

You can park in the additional parking spots all around Shopper Ln. I have been a customer for many years and tried many delicious dishes. They serve a traditional Mexican open buffet at certain times. The waiting line is expected, but don't feel discouraged because it moves fast. The decor is vibrant enriched with colorful murals. The staff are very welcoming and genuinely warm. The restaurant has cozy and inviting ambience. Outdoor and indoor seating are available. I placed an online order for pickup. It was fast and convenient since I had friends coming for dinner. I ordered the following: - Burrito Panchon 5/5 Stuffed with carnita, beans and rice, served with cream, beans and guacamole. Huge portion! You can choose your protein. - Fajitas Cielo Mar Y Tierra 5/5 Marinated beef, shrimp, chicken. It served with sauteed bell peppers tomatoes and onions, rice, guacamole, beans and pico de gallo. It was smoky, savory and flavorful. - Vegetarian Enchiladas 5/5 Corn tortillas stuffed with bell pepper, corn, onion, carrot, cilantro, squash, and topped with a combination of cream and jack cheese. The portion was enormous. It was a very flavorful and savory. - Carna Asada 5/5 Flap meat marinated with homemade adobo. It served with pico de gallo, rice & guacamole. The meat was juicy and tender. It was such a delicious dish. - Empanadas 5/5 I chose chicken empanadas. It served with salad. The empanadas was crispy from outside and very flavorful. - Ensalada de Nopales 5/5 Diced cactus mixed with tomatoes, onion, lime, and cilantro. - Taquitos 5/5 It was crispy from outside with savory and juicy filling. - Taco de Cameron , taco de Pescado & taco de Birria 5/5 They were savory, juicy and delicious. - Beans 5/5 Topped with melted cheese, really delicious - Large Bionico Bowl 5/5 Fresh fruits like topped strawberries, mango, cantaloupe, banana, papaya, blueberries, apples, pineapple topped with granola and shaved coconut. It was rich, creamy. The fruits were fresh and sweet. It was heavenly! Every box was wrapped with layers of plastic wrap perfectly. I got a bag full of different types of salsa with my order and another bag with tortilla chips. The food portions were very generous. Every dish reflected authenticity and deliciousness.

Their cake was awful, very grainy. I replenished my watermelon drink with more watermelon. The servers were very friendly and attentive.
