I do NOT recommend coming to this Taco Boy location anymore. If you really want Taco Boy, go to the…read moreone on Euclid instead (895 S Euclid St Unit 1520, Anaheim, CA 92802). I've been coming here for over 30 years, and this used to be the OG spot before COVID. I'm not trying to hate on them -- I'm just honestly tired and disappointed with how much the quality has dropped especially since I pay almost $60 in food when I go. Things really changed after the older man who worked the front passed away and the good cooks left. Ever since then, everything has gone downhill. The new staff just isn't the same. The older lady at the front has always been rude, even before COVID. When I order 8-12 tacos, I ask for multiple salsa cups (they're only 2 oz each). I'll ask for nine, she gives me six, and if I ask for more, she hands them over with attitude. I've even offered to pay for extra salsa just to avoid the attitude, but it still feels like a hassle every time. Another issue is how unprepared they are. On Mondays, Saturdays, Sundays, and sometimes even during the week, they don't have basic vegetables like rabanos, carrots, or pickled onions -- things they've always offered. When I ask, they tell me they don't have anything and that they "only for sure have them on Tuesdays." How does that make sense? These are basic items they should have all week. The food has gone downhill too. I've tried pretty much everything over the years, but the biggest problems are with: * Tamales -- Big, but mostly masa with barely any meat. And the meat they do add is full of nerves and fat. * Tacos -- Same issue: tons of nerves, barely edible, and the tortillas are drenched in grease. * Tortas -- I pay $2 extra for beans and they never add them. The carnitas are full of fat and nerves, and I have to open the torta and clean it myself. The few clean pieces left barely make a decent bite. I'm just tired of paying for food and service that keeps getting worse. The Taco Boy on Euclid is way better -- they have salsas, onions, carrots, radishes, and more available for you to grab yourself, and the food is consistently good. I really wish this location would try harder instead of half‑assing everything. Photo 1: Tiny 2 oz salsa containers and how little salsa they give you, even when ordering 8-12 tacos. Photo 2: The pile of fat, nerves, and inedible chunks I had to remove from my torta. Photo 3: The torta after I cleaned it -- barely any veggies and only a few clean pieces of carnitas. Also... why is EVERYTHING soaked in grease.

We stopped by Flashpoint Brewing Co. for some beers and decided to get a snack from the food truck outside. Lucky for me, the El Corazon De La Casa truck was there when we were. I am so so so so so very happy we got food because it was honestly, the more delicious Fajitas I've ever had. It took only about 10 minutes for our food to be ready and it was perfect. The Mom's House Fajitas came with Pico De Gallo, avocado, onions, peppers, rice, tomatoes, beans and tortillas. Everything tasty great individually and even better together! If you ever get the chance to try their food, pls do. I will 100% stop by again to try more!

We originally came to the area to try the tacos at Los Cholos down the street, but the line was…read morelong and parking was surprisingly limited--even with the large lot. Not wanting to wait too long, we decided to give Taqueria El Viejon a try instead. The ambiance is your typical hole-in-the-wall taco spot--nothing fancy, but that's usually where you find some solid tacos. When we walked in around 7:00pm, it honestly looked like they were about to close. Chairs were already up and the floors looked freshly cleaned. My husband asked if they were still open, and they said yes, so we decided to stay. We ordered a mulita, some street tacos, and a quesadilla. The mulita was exactly how I like it--simple, crispy, and satisfying. The street tacos were good, and the quesadilla also hit the spot. Overall, a solid backup option when the line at Los Cholos is too long.

Every bite was packed with authentic flavor, and the fresh toppings took them to another level. The tortillas were fresh, the portions were generous, and everything tasted incredibly authentic. The service was fast and friendly, making the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back because these tacos are seriously unforgettable. The taco shop is pretty casual with really cool decor on the walls and the music is very fitting as well. Very no frills ambiance By far, this is my favorite taco shop

I've been coming to Tacos El Patron for years because I genuinely enjoy the food, especially the…read morebirria tacos. The food is the reason I keep coming back, but unfortunately, I've had too many issues with my to-go orders over the years. I usually call ahead because the restaurant is often busy and seating is limited, so I've never really dined in. While the food is consistently good, my pickup orders are frequently incorrect or incomplete. Today's order was the final straw. I ordered two orders of birria tacos with consommé and specifically requested no cheese. Both orders came with cheese, and neither included the consommé. This is actually the second time the consommé has been forgotten. I understand that I share some responsibility for not checking the order before leaving, but I also expect my order to be prepared correctly and completely. By the time I noticed, I was already home and settled in to watch a game. When I called, they offered for me to come back and pick up the missing consommé, but that wasn't practical at that point. The food is great, which is why I've remained a customer for so many years. I just wish there was more attention to detail with takeout orders. Consistently getting orders right would make a huge difference and keep loyal customers like me from feeling frustrated.

Uber will automatically charge you twice when you select it as an option because it acknowledges you have two items selected. Mind you I order uber everyday and every other restaurant understands this system and you have no issue. This place will see the double charge and still only give you one item with meat 12.99 + 3.99 + 3.99 = 20.97 + tax 1.63 So every order every single time 3.99 x's 10 with my account and my husbands account 39.90 So they've stolen 40 dollars from my family either because they don't understand math or they refuse to accept that the special is through uber and somehow petty about it. I wonder how many people they have done this to and how much money they have accumulated simply due to ego and not asking to clarify a situation or refusing to acknowledge the problem. The lady who works there was completely rude and when I was simply trying to explain the math she kept talking over me and refused to even listen to simple common sense logic.

Living in Vegas, finding solid carnitas is nearly impossible, so whenever we're in Orange County we're always on the hunt for a real fix. We came across this spot on TikTok and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Wait time was not long, I'd say 10 minutes but definitely worth every bit. It's also served on a board which is a nice touch, and they serve it to you at your table. Our total came out to $40.19 for all the food plus two water bottles, which felt super reasonable for how delicious everything was. The vibe is very "hole in the wall" in the best way possible -- usually a sign the food is going to slap. You can literally see the giant pot of carnitas bubbling away and all the different cuts of meat on display. Super authentic and super flavorful. Also a big plus: it's fairly close to Disneyland, so it's a perfect food stop before or after the parks. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back whenever we're in town.

We came on a Tuesday afternoon at 6:00pm and they close at 7:00pm. There was NO ONE inside; plenty of seating to enjoy your meal and grab a drink. The women at the front desk were very nice and friendly. I ordered (2) carne asada tacos and (2) carnitas tacos and they were delicious! The best part is the tortillas were hecho a mano (homemade!). It did take a little while to get our food, but that was not a problem for me as I knew then that the food was hot and fresh, which it was! The asada was super good and seasoned; the carnitas were not shredded but cut up, but was perfectly meaty and fatty, which I personally enjoy. The limes were very juicy! Prices were $2.50 a taco which might sound expensive, but they loaded them up and was VERY filling! They had a small salsa bar with VERY spicy red salsa, green salsa, and avocado salsa. There were also chilis and some chili oil on the tables which I thought was different inside of a taqueria, but to each their own! What turned out to be our Plan B to grab dinner turned out to be an amazing friend in a small little location in Anaheim. I do enjoy supporting the small businesses as they usually never disappoint. Then we grabbed some snacks for the road before heading to the movies. Would come here again!
