Tacos Xalisco

I will definitely come back soon!!

I visited Reino 44 in Fontana a few months ago and ordered the green aguachiles. The flavor was…read moregood, and they were definitely spicy -- I enjoy spicy food, but these had enough heat that I needed a little break between bites. I was there enjoying them with a beer and good conversation. We were taking our time eating and enjoying our drinks; the aguachiles were not the only thing on our table. While we were still eating, someone from the kitchen came out and asked if he could take our plate. We politely said no thank you because we were still working on it. A few minutes later he came back and insisted on taking the plate, saying something along the lines of, "A clean table makes a consumer buy more," but the way it was said came across as rude and made us feel rushed. If the plate had been mostly empty, with just a couple of pieces left, I would have completely understood. But that wasn't the case -- I had only eaten about 2-3 shrimp out of a dozen. I shared how I felt, explaining that I understood clearing finished plates, but we were clearly not done. His response was dismissive and he walked away. The food had potential, and the aguachiles had good flavor, but the service experience left me disappointed. Sometimes giving guests a little time to enjoy their meal, conversation, and drinks makes a bigger difference than having a perfectly cleared table.

Seventeen minutes for Mexican food I'd never eaten, on the word of Yelp strangers. Worth it…read more Sergio's is small and unbothered. You walk in and get "hola, joven" before the door shuts behind you. I'd ordered takeout. The woman at the register talked me out of it, which was the correct call and not mine to make. A booth was cleared before I could argue. Chips and salsa arrived without being asked for. I hadn't ordered a drink, because I was supposed to be leaving. Then: "¿Mijo, quieres una Coca?" Yes. Obviously yes. All of that happened before the food came out, which is the part worth writing down. Hospitality here isn't a service standard. It's just how the room works. Then the carne asada wet burrito. Chopped beef, great texture, and the serving was plenty. The sauce on top, beautiful red, great flavor, and perfect temperature. The salsa was actually spicy not your generic Mexican restaurant salsa. Cheap. Good. Nobody performing anything. I'll be back. Gracias otra vez. Son muy amables.

Came here on a Sunday afternoon and they were pretty busy…read more I ordered carne asada tacos (can't go wrong with that) and chicharon tacos. And my boyfriend ordered a chicharon burrito. When ordering the lady asked my boyfriend if he was okay with cilantro, onions, rice okay in the burrito and he omitted the beans. One thing she never asked is we wanted hotsauce on the food. Because when I got my tacos and he got his burrito, it had hotsauce. I think this is something they should ask if you want when you are ordering. What if someone is ordering for a kid and they don't like hotsauce. I say this cos I don't like hotsauce. My boyfriend had to bring to back and they have new tacos with no hotsauce. Another thing that is a hit or miss here are the chicharon. Our chicharon was both crunchy and soft. I noticed it depends what time of day you go and you also know by how much chicharon they have left (you can see it on the display). I like how they have the toppings in a little bar where you can get (hot sauce, pickled jalapeños, cilantro and onions). It is a small restaurant. They have some seats indoor and outdoor. And they even have a tortilla lady in the corner making fresh tortillas.

With the shredded lettuce, cotija cheese, sour cream, and avocado. It had the perfect mix of freshness and crunch To drink, I tried cebada for the first time and I'm officially a fan It tasted like a mix between horchata and chocolate milk... such a good combo If you love tortilla soup, RUN don't walk ‍ it's a limited-time special! The tender chicken, crispy chips, and toppings like avocado, purple onion, cotija, and sour cream made it an absolute dream The barbacoa was super tender and flavorful, served with pasta salad, beans, and handmade tortillas everything tasted homemade and comforting The pork tamale was giving soft and tender on the inside with a slightly crispy, pan-fried outer layer. And they did not skimp on the filling...lots of meat and potatoes The machaca had so much flavor I loved the veggies and potatoes, paired with beans and rice. It was hearty and satisfying The ceviche was bright, fresh, and citrusy right up my alley! I would've loved a little more spice, but the homemade tostadas took it to another level Quesabirria tacos? Always a yes cheesy, tender, flavorful meat with consomé for dipping... say less paired with cheesy beans and rice = perfection For dessert, I got the corn elote soft, sweet, and delicious. I also tried it pan-fried and it gave caramel brûlée vibes so good! This spot feels like you're eating a home-cooked meal made with love and intention Great service and ambiance. "Las cosas buenas toman tiempo" and you can definitely taste that here

No potatoes, no bacon, nothing that made it feel like a premium burrito. The taste was ok, flavorful, the chorizo and eggs were cooked well however it was very greasy. It was just a pretty standard breakfast burrito. Unfortunately, the price completely overshadowed the experience. For me, it just isn't worth $17. I left feeling like I paid way more than what I received, so I won't be coming back.
