    It's  National Taco Tuesday today!
    Mona Q.

    Oct 7, is not just a regular Taco Tuesday - It's National Taco Tuesday! Of course I have to get my some tacos to celebrate the day. Happy National Taco Tuesday! I stopped by Taqueria DeAnda on Imperial Hwy, Brea, CA on the way to my PT job. Their tacos are the street style tacos, double soft tortillas with the protein options. I ordered my favorite tacos which are the same options such as Chicken, Carnitas and Al Pastor with cilantro and light on the onions. The tacos prices are amazing only 2.49 each. The have great options of tacos and burritos, with the traditional side of rice or beans. The salsa options are on point as well. They have a few drink options some in bottle Jaritos Pinnaple, Mandarin, Lime or Tamarind and of course Mexican Coca Cola. Also aguas frescas like Jamaica, Orchata and Tamarind. Their indoor dinning are is pretty big and while I was there they were really busy. Service was fast and friendly. Since Yelp is always asking if they have accessible parking well, they do is right in front door. They gave catering services as well.

    Al Pastor Burrito
    Irving G.

    Got an Al Pastor Burrito, guy with glasses was generous with the rice, beans and salsa but when I t came to the meat, he did the old shake-a-roo and was counting the rations. It is what it is but if you're charging $11 + for a burrito, you shouldn't be stingy in the meat.

    Ordered food from here last night through a delivery service to our office...the amount of oil that came out of the burrito was.....shocking. don't understand how they thought it was ok to send this out.

    Top, carnitas; bottom: pollo

    Taquería de Anda is located in a shopping center off of Imperial Hwy and Kraemer. It's easy to locate and access and parking is plentiful. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available. Decor is limited, really just consisting of the tables and chairs. Your food is prepared as it's ordered and condiments can be added to your liking. Pay for and get your food around the corner at the register. The employees are friendly and efficient. I ordered a taco de pollo and a taco de carnitas with cilantro and cebolla with green sauce on the side. Both were generously filled with protein, but the flavor just wasn't there. Although the carnitas were tender, they were bland. The pollo had more of a char flavor from the grill than actual seasoning flavor. The corn tortilla was the dominant flavor in both tacos. With so many taco places to choose from in the area, I'm not likely to return here.

    Taking a shopping break

    These burritos are filling! Needed a quick lunch break in between shopping and we were craving some Mexican food. So glad they opened a location in BREA vs driving down to Fullerton. The hubby usually gets tacos but he opted for his Al pastor burrito and since I don't eat meat I opted for the bean and cheese burrito. My bean and cheese burrito was filled and they didn't scrimp on the filling that I needed to stop half way just from Being full. My husband said the Al pastor was so tender and favorable that he bought another to take home for later.

    Carnitas burrito wet style with chili Verde sauce

    Quick dinner with my son. He had al pastor tacos and I had a wet carnitas burrito. Order at the counter and your food is prepared right in front of you. Pay at the register and pick your seat in the restaurant. Ambiance was something between fast casual and fast food. Everything tasted good and I couldn't finish the burrito.

    Our normal go to de anda is the placentia one but since we were in Brea we decided to get lunch here thinking it would be the same thing. We noticed a big difference in our burrito the size.... It was a lot skinnier and only came with a small scoop of meat and they charged extra for carne asada meat... the tortilla was also dryer cause they heat it up using the heated press vs on the flat grill. The burritos weren't as tasty either the meats were bland, only the hot sauces tasted the same. However the service was excellent and the store seemed cleaner and in better location vs the Placentia store you feel like you're in TJ but they got way better food and fat tasty burritos.

    Carne asada taco
    Shawn M.

    Worst tacos period. The name screams Mexican taco and as a Mexican I am very disappointed. Presentation was so misleading. Nice looking tacos stuffed with lots of meat just to get you excited for nothing. I had the carne asada tacos and the chicken. Chicken was flavorless and dry. The carne asada dry, chewy, and flavorless. They choose quantity over quality, but what's the point in having extra meat if it isn't edible. I'll never come back here ever. Youve been warned

Even the rice and beans are better than other places lol The rice is so fluffy and soft! I've never had rice that good.

The shrimp enchiladas came with shrimp and pico de gallo inside. It was topped with cheese. Very good! I scarfed it down. Next time though, I will order the cheese enchiladas. Those are my favorite!

I have to remind myself not to overindulge in their complimentary warm, thick-&-crunchy tortilla chips, served with salsa. Aware that I'd already consumed a good amount of chips, I ordered their Junior's Plate: choice of 1 item (Shredded Beef Taco), rice & beans ($11) -- good amount of beef; my thoughts, easier (and more elegant) to eat with fork & knife. Hubby enjoyed his order #18 Pork Carnitas ($18). Cocktails: I enjoyed the presentation and taste of my Paloma, $16; hubby thoroughly enjoyed his Farolito, $11, commenting it was good-&-strong and reasonably priced - a win-win! With this newly-added attractive and comfortable dining room, El Farolito is among our options when in the mood for Mexican cuisine.

Food has always been good. Tried the fish taco combo with rice and beans. I have also tried the shrimp ceviche and the fish ceviche. I would recommend it all. When you order the ceviche you get a good amount of ceviche and they give you two tostadas. If you are not very hungry a ceviche tostada is probably the right amount to order and under $10. If you are hungry, try one of the combos. This last time I tried it was this last Sunday at around 5pm. The place was packed inside and there were also a few people sitting outside. It was not very loud inside which was nice. Place was clean inside and out. Customer service has always been ok. From placing orders the phone to in person service.

Everything tasted homemade and so comforting that it felt like leaving a friend's house after a meal his mom made. The vibe was fun, the service was great, and we were lucky enough to have the son taking care of us, which made the experience even better. Thank you for an amazing meal and great conversation. We're looking forward to creating many more memories here. This is officially our go-to spot because, quite frankly, the food here is on another level.

    Came for a girls lunch date earlier to this weekend and this spot did not disappoint!…read more THE SERVICE: 5/5 - Quick, friendly, accommodating, and our waiter made a real effort to engage in conversation with us. The FOOD: 4.5/5 | Drinks: 5/5 Off the appetizers, we had the pork belly bites and dirty fries! First dish came with a long hot pepper, several mini tortillas, and 2 dipping sauces. The pork was crunchy on the outside and soft+succulent on the inside. I can see myself doubling up on this appetizer the next time I come. Dirty fries were great; it came with a generous amount of pickled onions - providing a really nice contrast to the savoriness of our meal. Our waiter graciously accommodated our request to have the egg on the side. Off the entrée/taco menu, my friend ordered the Korean tacos and I got the Ensenada (fish) tacos. But you can also order the Ensenada tacos with shrimp. These were delicious, I would have loved a little more lime crema to go with the fish - but not a big deal. I got a Watermelon Margarita. I wasn't expecting it to be HUGE, but it was the perfect amount considering how much food we as a pair ordered. My friend ordered the La Toxica table side cocktail and one additional mango cocktail.
