    Wrong pricing.
    Ariah R.

    Not based off food this is before I try them. I'm not sure how I feel, there menu has completely different prices but when we asked she said "oh we haven't changed our menu prices". Then you should be charged for what the menu is saying not the new price. It's deceiving and unproffesional Quesadilla says $9.50 It's actually a Dollar more. Tacos say $2.15 They are actually $2.20 It's just not okay

    Loved it! Tbh searching for any taco place around and took a risk coming but so worth it!! It's quite a small place definitely built for takeout but the food was so delicious! Flavorful, fresh and hot. Only took a picture of my enchilada plate but we tried chicken quesadillas and an asada burrito as well. And the workers there were super nice and friendly. Don't skip the salsas both were good!

    It's a wet burrito with red and green sauce it's so damn bomb!!!!!!
    Ms T.

    Feeling upset today I had taste for a asada burrito w/o rice plus cheese it was not good at all the cook didn't feel like cooking the meat was nasty with no flavor and the red sauce was not hot and the green sauce was watery smh I was so mad because I should've took my ass to subway and ate healthy today I don't know what happened to them they was bomb but now it's WHAT EVER !!!

    Solid hole in the wall taqueria. Located on the corner of Lakewood and Artesia with a small parking lot. It's a really small establishment with a few tables and chairs. There is a plethora of choices between the protein to the type of food you want from tacos to sopes to tortas to nachos and more. Extremely reasonably priced to considering the quantity of food they give you. Only knock is the carne asada I got was a bit salty. Outside of that definitely coming back to try the other stuff.

    I just went yesterday and I ordered 2 large waters, the pineapple and Horchata like I always do and they gave these tiny cups and I was like no I wanted large and the cashier said that's the only size they have and I said nooo I pointed to the tip cup they have and said that's the cup size I always get when I say large and then she said they changed it to one cup size only. The cup is tiny for $4 what a rip off! They should have a sign or let customers know about the change. Other than that Tacos are bomb, everything we have tried is good The alpastor tacos are my favorite.

    My favorite hole in the wall taqueria! I've tried others in the area and I always come back to Taqueria wen chef! Definitely a to go spot because there's only two chairs inside with no A/C, just a heads up. The portions are huge and very reasonably priced. Most tacos are 1.75 per taco everyday and they're overfilled with meat to the point that it's falling out. Their salsa roja is my favorite, the perfect spice level and freshness to complement the tacos without being overwhelming. My absolute favorite meat is the Al Pastor, the asada is also good! We also tried their Birrria which was tasty as well with their extra spicy salsa.

Entered the restaurant which we were greeted and seated. The host gave us some waters and stated that our server will be here in a few minutes. A few minutes passed, our server handed us some tortilla chips and salsa. I ordered a Campechana cocktail which had a mixture of shrimp and octopus. Ordered a Lengua taco and chicken Mole. Ordered some alcoholic drinks as well. Received our food within 15 minutes. All was very good! No complaints on the taste of food. All was delicious. Pros: -Happy Hour drinks were decent -Plenty of parking -Clean Restaurant which felt old fashion -Live music is available Cons: -Had to keep calling our waitress over to assist us. -Seafood Cocktail was very expensive! Other Restaurants that tasted as good or better would average up to $16-$19. This place charges you $27 which I believe is too overpriced for some seafood cocktail. Dishes were above average pricing. Overall: Wouldn't me my first Mexican go to place due the expensive price for dishes and Seafood and it would not be the last to visit. This place had a good vibe. Ambiance was straight old fashion to the punch. A real Mexican joint without old school vibes.

I waited about 20 min for the order. Then when I got the order. The fries were cold and not even warm. Maybe a day old not fresh at all. The wet burritos were cold too! When you opened them there was not steam like they had when I first had them. The first time I went and I opened the wet burrito box it had steam coming out and was super hot with the sauce and the inside of the burrito. For $60 this was not worth it. I would recommend going somewhere else. I was so disappointed and had traveled an hour for this food

    We've been here before, and they normally had decent service. The last experience was so bad that…read morewe will be going somewhere else for our Mexican food. Place was nearly empty, we still went completely unattended for long stretches of time, orders were all wrong, and the waitress instead of fixing it was argumentative & completely wrong. For example, when I noticed my order was wrong, I told her and she immediately contradicted me to the point that I had to move the meat aside to prove to her that there were no beans on my order when there should've been. Instead of then fixing and apologizing she blamed the chef. When my spouse pointed out what was wrong about her order, she asked us what she wanted her to do with it? Maybe take it back and fix it? It was almost like she was blaming us and expecting us to just take what they brought us even if it was wrong. NOBODY IS TRYING TO PAY FOR THE PLEASURE TO FIGHT WITH THEIR INCORRECT WAITRESS. If you are going to be arguing with your paying clients, the least you could do is be right. They still tried to bill me for incorrect food returned and uneaten. Owner started brining up her video, but failed to address the countless problems and issues that were all over that "video". Eventually the food that was wrong and that was returned uneaten was refunded but it pales in comparison what the afternoon cost me. Please consider going elsewhere and their health code is a C which I did not know.
