    My husband and I always make a point to stop at Three Amigos whenever we visit Barona Casino. Their $2 carne asada tacos are our go-to. These street tacos are loaded with toppings and made fresh right in front of you. It's the perfect pit stop for a quick, tasty bite!

    Carne Asada and Pollo Taco

    Went here really quick during a casino sesh. These tacos used to be $1 each and now they're $2 each. They give you a buzzer at the register to let us know our food was ready! It probably took around less than 5 mins and there was no line during our visit. Food is a lil bland, but you can add the salsa and lime.

    Bacon wrapped hot dogs  $4.50 each. Delicious

    Tacos are delicious at $2.00 each with fresh guacamole. Hot dog wrap in bacon $4.50 each.

    Very bad test not good service very slow. I don't like it. The taco is not good plus the I think it's very old.

    so much flavor!

    When you're hungry and don't want to go to the buffet or steakhouse, Three Amigos is a great option. You must try their world famous street tacos. They are filling and packed with flavor. The extra grilled onions and and jalapenos are perfect sides for your meal. The California Burrito is pretty good too! Hige and filled with meat, fries, cheese, guacamole and aour cream. Big enough to share. Seriously... They do not have horchata available, only the standard Coke brand sodas. I'll be back for sure when in the area if I don't want crab legs or steak lol. Give this place a try. You can thank me later.

    waited over an hour for our tacos just to find out that our ticket was never printed out so when we finally went & asked about it, it took another 10 ish mins till we got our order, staff on register (wearing red) seemed to think it was funny since they kept giggling to themselves

    Known for their $1 "world famous" street tacos, I suggest pulling an audible at Three Amigos. Instead, go for Chato's breakfast burrito. You're welcome! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/three-amigos-lakeside-2?select=3gTo8omdgh6oDA9iWmM3ag Yes, $1 tacos with either carne asada, pollo asado, carnitas or potatoes sound good, but their diminutive size, compared with a $3.50 Chato's breakfast burrito, just doesn't seem food logical. I mean, c'mon, Chato's bb comes loaded with egg, cheese, skilled-fried potatoes, bacon, ham, green onion, tomato. Oh yeah, if that didn't make your stomach growl, slices of avocado for good measure! This burrito is all that & will keep you filled up while wasting away your life savings on a Wheel of Fortune slot machine. One of the food options in the Barona Casino food court, I have to say Three Amigos is the best option! Cheap prices, bomb ass Mexican food - you can't go wrong. The only negative I can come up with, and it's a small one, is that Three Amigos closes at 2am For the hardcore pulling an all nighter, it would be so awesome to scarf down a Chato's breakfast burrito before collapsing into bed around 4:30 in the morning. Alas, Three Amigos closes 2am and opens at the rather late time of 9am. I'd think a place serving breakfast burritos would open earlier than that, don't you? Regardless, a minor caveat to an otherwise awesome foodie find. Service was good. The cook were quick in preparation of our food. Help yourself to some chiles, green onions or what not while in line. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/three-amigos-lakeside-2?select=qxb_jia0fkjGdIbhOP-unQ https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/three-amigos-lakeside-2?select=tCCkho8XbI_k1FskUrxiVw Hey, you gotta eat! Why not eat hearty and cheap, while you're at it? Three Amigos delivers the goods when it comes to Mexican food and I will, for sure, have a couple more Chato's breakfast burritos when I visit Barona Casino again. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/three-amigos-lakeside-2?select=Ol3oazw6KnFpNJLIpUzzgw Highly recommend!

    The popular tacos at barona. I used to come here a lot for their $1 tacos but prices have been raised to $1.29ea. The tacos are street size tacos. They have carne Asada, carnitas, polla asada and potatoes. Topped with guac, pico de Gallo, salsa.

    $1 TJ style street tacos. All day. Erryday. You're already a winner and you don't have to wait for Taco Tuesday. We usually frequent the nearby casino buffet, but met up with friends for tacos this time. The Barona Casino food court area has a nice variety of snackable options and Three Amigos is no exception. Friendly, fast service and the food is tasty. Carne, pollo, carnitas, and potaco. Try that hot sauce, the orange one, for some spicy heat. Wifey got a side of sour cream and the portion was surprisingly generous. Thumbs up. Nice feasting on the cheap after hitting it big on the penny slot machines! Or even if you didn't ;)

    Nachos plus carne asada = $4.50
    Mel B.

    When Barona takes all of my money and I feel like a loser, I come here for the street tacos. You really can't go wrong with $1/ea street tacos. I'm the big winner here! You have the option of ordering carne asada, carnitas or pollo asado. Today I had the opportunity to eat these tacos right away. Usually, my folks bring some back home from the casino but they always order carne asada. You can order nachos for $2 and burritos for $4.50. I think I can eat about 5 tacos because the tacos are real small. I've only eaten the street tacos so I can't comment on other items. They do provide you free grilled green onions, grilled peppers and radishes as well. The carnitas taco tasted the best today, following the carne asada and pollo asado. The carne asada tacos weren't as tasty as I remember, but perhaps it was an off day. Just be sure to save $10 of your gambling $ and come here for your Mexican food fix!

    Very Good For 99c

    9/26/2015 Wow What a great Little Taco Stand. For being inside a food court inside a Indian Casino this was a very pleasant surprise. A very busy part of the food court with some times quite long lines I thought it might be just ok. The lines move very rapid and the assembly-line making Tacos are very good at what they do. The Tacos are only $1.00 each all the time. They have burritos and a few other things also. The Carnitas and Carna Asada tacos were very tasty. The meat was juicy, tender, and very flavorful. Some of the best tasting meat I've had in a long time. The Carnitas were my favorite. And Only A Buck Each. The Burger Stand next door has good shakes too. The Hot Sauces are flavorful also. I Will Eat Here Again.

    Most BANG for your BUCK! Street tacos for a dollar. The carne asada is the best IMO. You have to admire nachos that actually have nacho cheese. Well played. Everything is priced low. We got two burritos and it came out to $8. Machaca Burrito $3.50 Chato Burrito + Carne Asada $4.50 Don't forget to add carne to the nachos or any other item. It's only $1. The green onions are a free side and they're good stuff.

    $1 street tacos!
    Will T.

    One dollar street tacos (with tender marinated beef, chicken or pork). Huge burritos for $3.50-5.00! Everything is assembled fresh and quick right in front of you.

    It's pretty nerve-wracking and disrespectful I love the place and it's upsetting me so much that I just can't get a decent meal

    **Extremely disappointing and frustrating experience**…read moreStopped by Albert's Fresh Mexican Food on my way home after picking up my son from a football fundraiser. We don't live in the area--it's in his dad's school district--so we're about a **20-minute freeway drive away**. We ordered **2 bean and cheese burritos and a menudo**. Somehow, it took **20-30 minutes just to get our to-go order**. After being out in the sun since 8 AM, I was exhausted, hungry, and just ready to get home. We finally get home, open the bag, and realize **WE WERE GIVEN SOMEONE ELSE'S FOOD**--1 carne asada burrito and 3 rolled tacos that were plain and **drier than the Sahara Desert**. At this point, I'm pissed. I called to ask for a refund because I live far as fuck and I'm absolutely not making another **40+ minute round trip** because YOUR staff handed me the wrong order. I was told they couldn't refund me unless I physically brought back the food I never even ordered. Their other solution was to remake my food--which, again, would require me to drive all the way back. To make the situation even more frustrating, the **"manager" I spoke with was not friendly or willing to work with the situation at all.** There was no attempt to understand that I don't live around the corner, no apology that made me feel like they actually cared about the inconvenience, and no reasonable alternative offered. It basically felt like, *bring the food back or too bad.* How exactly does that fix the situation for me? **I paid for food I never received.** Now, instead of coming home after being out since 8 AM and eating the dinner I already paid for, **I have to cook AND spend additional money on food because your restaurant messed up my order.** Two bean and cheese burritos and a menudo are not worth wasting another 40+ minutes of my time, plus gas, to correct **your mistake**. I already wasted 20-30 minutes waiting for the order in the first place. The last thing I should have to do is open every container before leaving to make sure your staff actually gave me what I paid for. **Your mistake should not become my responsibility, my extra drive, my extra gas, my wasted time, and my additional expense.** Mistakes happen--I understand that. What made this experience so upsetting was **how poorly the mistake was handled afterward.** A little understanding and willingness to work with a customer would have gone a long way. Instead, I'm home, hungry, **cooking lunch after I already PAID someone else to make lunch**, and out the money I spent on food I never received. Absolutely ridiculous and terrible customer service.

We felt like it was authentic and reasonable price point. For the table, they brought out lots of chips and salsa. It was nice and crispy and flavorful. Not spicy, though. I had ordered the Hacienda Carne Asada. It was a flamed broil skirt steak with a cheese enchilada, rice, beans, and guacamole. The beans came inside a fried tortilla bowl. OH MY! It was so good. I am embarrassed to say, I kept on eating and talking even though I was full. Overall, we had a great time! The food was delicious. The service was amazing. Ample parking. The price point was reasonable in this economy. You get plenty of food. Clean bathrooms. Look at their website for live entertainment schedule! I cannot wait to come back soon!

The tortilla can't hold the generous helping of chicken, which has a great flavor. By the time I finished the second one, and all of the chicken, onion and cilantro that spilled from the tacos, I was full. (I'm a senior citizen and I eat less now than I used to, so YMMV). I like their chicken tacos a lot better than Sombrero's chicken taco a la plancha, which has been my go to for lunch for years. That said, my wife prefers the California burrito at Sombrero, since the one from Chuy's had more fries than meat. The pollo asado quesadilla was very filling and very tasty (plenty of meat). Chuy's is right next door to Funky Burgers, and given the fresh food aspect of Chuy's offerings, I'd say Chuy's is probably better for you.
