This place had the best carne asada plate. Grilled to order and always juicy. They also have solid menudo that is available daily. If you're a fan of chilaquiles, you won't want to miss their chulada chilaquiles. read more

There's a ton of Mexican food places in this area, and several are good, so for one to stand out from the others requires something really special. Teresa's is it. We've been doing a lot of ordering in, and it's not always easy to impress from a take out container. So while this review isn't taking the full dining experience into consideration, from a food standpoint, the flavors and quality of what Teresa's is putting out of their kitchen is really excellent. Their burritos are amazing, especially the al pastor, which is incredibly meaty, well seasoned and has a perfect amount of pineapple for that sweet and spicy experience. Don't even think about not getting your burrito anything but wet. You'd be missing out on it being smothered in one of their super flavorful sauces, and that would be a mistake! All the dishes we've tried are good sized portions and packed with flavor. It's probably hard to miss here. I can't wait to try more of the menu. So whether the world has opened back up and you are going inside,or your looking to eat something delicious in the coziness of your own home, this place is a solid choice. read more

I hate to write this review because I love their food so much ! But in so tired of finding roaches in my food ! This place has a roach problem , this is the second time I found a roach in my food , it was in my posole that I was eating and last time it was in my agua fresca that I bought from here ! And the restaurant wouldn't answer when I called to talk to managers and they were still open so I have no choice but to give my honest review ! I hope they can either get an exterminator and say that hired new a management but for now this place is horrible , the food is good no doubt but to find roaches in my food twice is crazy ! read more

First time here with some friends, I was craving some chilaquiles and this place hit the spot. It's a sweet little spot with photos of their food on one wall and family photos on another wall. Our server was very nice and attentive, we all got the chilaquiles con carne asada and eggs plate and it was delicious and very flavorful. We took a flan to go and they added a slice of their strawberry flan for us to try and omg it was soooo amazing. The service and food here is 5 stars I can't wait to come back because I want to try their mole. read more

Food was not it , no seasoning & dry . I told the waiter I didn't like the handmade tortillas they were so dry and hard , i only had a bite of 1 out of the 4 . was still charged 5$ for something i was disappointed with and given attitude when i asked why i was still being charged . the waiter had a rude response and clearly shouldnt be working in costumer service! DISAPPOINTED! read more

Ordered the red chilaquiles it was a bit spicy, but the sauce tasted like it was from a can. The chips tasted like as if they were store-bought chips. The rice was a bit overcooked, but I like the flavor of it and I didn't really try the beans since I'm not really a fan of refried beans read more

Excellent local spot in a small unassuming strip mall. We were greeted by a nice woman who sat us and gave drink menus, food menu was a QR code. Didn't try the agua fresca since it was breakfast and the cafe de olla was calling my name. Served in a nice ceramic cup, it's served black with cinnamon & sugar (cream on the side). First few drinks were delicious but eventually became too sweet, I think I'll ask for less sugar next time if possible. For food I got the torta cubana. The description said fan favorite and I can definitely see why. This thing was stacked with toppings and came with carnitas AND Milanesa. Both equally delicious, but similar to the coffee, it was overwhelming after a few bites. I eventually separated out the carnitas from the sandwich and it was perfection, plus I had carnitas on the side. I will be returning to try out the rest of the menu since everything was really tasty, big portions, and great prices. I can see why people would complain about the interior but I think it adds character. Pictures of people who I assume are family, including a grandma holding a can of modelo, and a fantasy football trophy are on the walls plus they had some nice music on. Sure it's a little dated but you know the food is gonna be good when they don't need to hire an interior decorator! read more

Ordered the Deep Fried burrito and the Mole Chilaquiles great quality and service. Group decided we have to go back after the first few minutes of eating. The flavors and tastes are unique and satisfying. read more

I came in the server was very polite and quick to greet me. I ordered the menudo, a quesabirria taco and a agua Fresca . The place was nice and clean. The food came pretty quick and with all the garnish and tortillas. The menudo was delicious and perfectly seasoned and the quesabirra taco was full of birria that I had enough to make 2 tacos. I definitely recommend coming in and trying the menudo!!! read more

On our way to LA had to stop for some authentic, fresh, and delicious Mexican food. Yelp never disappoints! Start off with the cafe de olla or any of the aguas frescas. We tried the chulada chilaquiles and the California burrito. Both were amazing and highly recommended! We will have to stop by and try the tres leches French toast and fried burrito next time! Also the flan is fire, save room for dessert! *only one pictured as we were starving lol read more

Great find after a morning walk around the City of Industry swap-meet. Prices are reasonable and the food is truly homemade. You even get that feeling by just walking in. The seating area isn't big, which I like. As you walk in, the food smells delish and you already know that you've made a good decision. You know it's also family own since the people that work there are super nice and extremely attentive. My only gripe would be the frijoles, they had a bit of a burned taste to them... which wasn't bad but it threw me off, specially since I was craving beans so bad. My husband also thought the burrito would have the mole sauce inside it... like the chicken was smothered into it and not topped off, but regardless, the flavor was everything else was there. I do have to point out, with both, the burrito and enchiladas... they were heavy stuffed with chicken, which is a surprise since most places barely give you protein and fill food with other things. This place is a for sure must try! read more

Ordered pazole for delivery today. Received with mostly juice lots of hominy and 5 small bites of meat. No onions/cabbage or lemon was included. Just the spices on the side. What a waste of money. Will never order anything from there again. read more

Found this spot in a social media post it looked good. Had to give it a try because of the chilaquiles. Seems like a family owned/ran business. Walked right in and took a seat. Shortly after, a nice señora came and took our order. We wanted the trío chilaquiles (red, green, molé) that we seen on YELP, but, what seemed to be the manager mentioned they do not do that anymore (guy was a little rude about it too). However, we made the order. It took longer than usual to get our food. The señora kept telling us, "order is coming." Me: Gracias. They bring out the chilaquiles plates with no rice and beans like we ordered. Had to ask for that....and the food came out before my appetizer (taquitos). I then ask the señora where they were and she says, oh, my apologies we had a lot of phone orders to do. I still wanted them so she puts order in. Then the "guy," who seems to be the manager (didn't get a name), brought the taquitos out and said, "This is on us, sorry about the wait." Made up for the mistakes which was appreciated. Started a conversation and appreciates their customers. Definitely recommend this place. Everything was very good. Salsas are a little watery but a good kick (spice) to them. Can't wait to come back and try some other menu items. Take a look at the pictures for reference. Thank you to the squad. :) read more

Holy moly, this place is awesome! Great huevos rancheros, perfect slow-cooked menudo, and the bite of my fellow diner's chilaquiles I snuck knocked my socks off. Service was friendly and fast. Top tier Mexican breakfast (Mexfast?) spot in the area. read more

Absolutely loved this place. Food is delicious, the salsa is spicy and savory. Just has a home touch that not a lot of places do. Recommend the Pambasa, and tamales! Music is also absolutely banger. read more

Nice family spot manager is always nice and remembers what you ordered last. I've tried the breakfast everything is good.

Pulled in on a cold rainy day for some Pozole. It's a very small place. The guy who helped me was very nice! I got the green sauce with pork. It was delicious. I could have used some more cabbage but it was fine. Restroom is all the way around the back so you have to exit the restaurant, go through the laundry next door to the back door. But hey, at least they have one I guess! Tables felt a little sticky but didn't look dirty or anything. read more

Stopped by while getting our car serviced in the area. Friendly service and food came out quick. I wasn't quite used to having pineapple in my quesadilla (sweet + savory) but it was still very balanced, clean, yet tasty. It wasn't the meatiest but still had good flavor. Basically, if you enjoy pineapple on your pizza, you'll enjoy this. The carne asada platter was superb! Meat was juicy, tortilla had the right amount of fluff and chew, and you have the freedom to adjust the ratios to your liking. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommended! Overall, the food gave off a very fresh and non-greasy impression. In other words, more home-cooked than mass produced vibes. We'll be back to try some of their soups! read more

This is a small place with incredibly delicious food! Their salsas taste home made. Their ceviches are fresh and amazing! Try their aguachiles!!! Yumm!!! Service is awesome too!! read more

Misled into purchasing salsa & chips with guacamole. We assumed it was complimentary because the waitress stated they'd bring it for us to start. We don't usually feel the need to be suspicious of service, but I realize we should've asked if we'd get charged for it. Pozole was really salty & meat tasted like it was boiled separately from the soup as it was incredibly bland. Shrimp ceviche tasted nice & is made to order but they only gave like four medium shrimps. Best item we tried were the chilaquiles, which we asked in place of the pozole. read more

Green pozole was really good. You are given 3 squeeze bottles of salsas with the menus when you first sit down. Complimentary chips says a lot. FYI Put Caldo de res on Yelps search, not on the menu. Service was good. Not comfy to dine in, for my likings. Will order to go soon. Green chicken pozole a must. read more

My BF and I came to eat here about two months ago (I know it took me a while to post my review). Anyhow, the food was pretty good but my goodness that cafe de holla was waaaaayy too sweet! We left half of it and paid full price for it. If you're a person that easily gets cloyed when something is too sweet, DO NOT ORDER THIS! read more

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND COMING HERE. Teresa's is theeeee best Mexican restaurant I've been to! The food is made with live and you can taste it while you're eating it. Owner Eddie is AMAZING he took great care of us, during our meal he even sat down and chatted with us. FOOD IS A1 I've already told several of my friends about this spot and they will be visiting soon. read more

Loved the green chilaquiles with asada. Their salsa verde is delicious. My eggs weren't runny but that's my fault. I called in my order and was a little late picking it up. The eggs steamed themselves in the container. Wasn't a huge fan of the sope though. Way too much beans for me. Out door dining was set up when I stopped by. Small strip mall parking lot that was pretty crowded. Service was definitely quick and friendly. I had some trouble getting through on the phone, but I just kept trying. Will be back for more chilaquiles eventually but I was surprised that my order came out to ~$20. I noticed they had weekday $10 specials. Might try those next time. read more

Decided to try Teresa's after reading some of the reviews. We decided to get huevos rancheros with rice, beans and green chiliquilles with carne asada and eggs. Everything was cooked perfectly. Eggs had solid whites and a runny yolk. **perfectly cooked IMO** The carne asada was so good! It was lean and full of flavor. The beans were fresh and definitely homemade. I was able to watch as they were prepping them for the day. When I get rice at restaurants, I always worry that it is boil in a bag rice. But not here, again homemade, fluffy and flavorful. We decided to order to go for family at home. We ordered a carne asada burrito and a beans, cheese and egg burrito. Everyone enjoyed the food from here. We watched as the waitress took a burrito out to the outdoor seating, it was looking so good. So we had inquired what type of burrito and were told it was s mole burrito. We let them know it looked delicious. The waitress then brought a small plate with chips and mole sauce on it. OMG!!! The best mole I have tasted. We will be going back to have the mole burrito. The food is reasonably priced. Glad we found this place. Thank you for the great food and service. read more
