    Bacon and Egg Breakfast Burrito
    Lisa Y.

    Decided to try this spot since I saw that it recently opened. The chilaquiles on the menu caught me eye, so we decided to order that. The chips are covered in red sauce, sour cream, and cotija cheese, then topped with two fried eggs. The sauce was not bad. It also comes with rice and beans. The portion of the chilaquiles itself seemed a little small to me. We also got a Bacon and Egg Breakfast Burrito. It comes with beans, potato, and cheese. The bacon came in huge chunks and was really fatty. I was not a fan. Not sure if it's always like this? Would be willing to try them again, but maybe not from their breakfast menu.

    Not a bad lunch, just not a must-repeat for me. Pulled up for lunch and this spot is definitely more grab-and-go than "let's have a cute little sit-down moment." It's tiny inside with only a couple stools, no outdoor seating, but there's parking right out front, so points for making the lunch run easy. Ordering was smooth. I sat inside while they made my food and then took it to go. I got the loaded taquitos with shrimp and carne asada. The shrimp and carne asada were good, just not "I need to come back next week" good. And the taquitos are potato taquitos, but the filling was basically just... potato. No real seasoning, no extra flavor, just soft potato, so the inside was a little mushy and one-note even with the toppings trying their best. Overall, everything was fine and the experience was easy. It just didn't quite hit for me.

    I was able to order from this restaurant on Instacart delivery Uber Eats. The food was fresh and tasted great. It came with chips, salsa green and red, fresh tortillas. Serrano peppers and pickled carrots. Cut limes too. This will definitely be a go to place for me for Mexican food.

    Shrimp Bowl was delicious.

    The shrimp bowl I ordered this time was a hit. I want you to understand how heavy this bowl was when grabbing it from the bag. This dish filled me up and I had to put the rest back and finish later. The flavor is there as well as freshness. Very satisfying. It always clean and service is friendly. This is why I'm a regular customer.

    Was next door and decided that we should give this place a try - I'm really glad we did! Food: I tried the Potato Taquitos w/ Carne and Shrimp on recommendation - I would certainly recommend this dish to anyone wanting to see what this place is about as it's both tasty and filling - I couldn't it it all. Service: Worker in the front and cook in the back, the person up front was friendly and attentive, and the person in the back was working to make the show go and keep the pace. Ambiance: Clean and colorful, with lots of menu options and a salsa bar that was freshly stocked with lots of various salsas, sauces, and jalapeño options. There's no seating to speak of, so this is a to-go affair, but don't let that deter you - my kids and I all enjoyed the meal and I'm sure we'll be back. :)

    The waitress was so kind and answered all of our questions. The real hit was the quesabirra tacos. My partner already wants to come back for them. I cant believe we got complimentary chips, drinks, and lollipops?! That was such a nice treat and definitely a way to kick off a grand opening. My two recommendations would be to add seating somewhere somehow. I think they might eventually so i think thatll be a nice touch. i also personally dont like the taste of the chips. I liked my cucumber lime Aqua Fresca, but my burrito wanted to fall apart. I think I will definitely get the quesabirra next time I come as my partner really loves it. Can't wait!

    I'm in food coma right now! 7/12/24 Trejo's just moved into our neighborhood. I just had to check it out today. I don't remember what this is called, but gosh dam it's to die for. (figure of speech) . It has a Crunchy shell and juicy real meat. Love the dipping sauce. Dip and bite until gone. Love the Agua Fresca's I had Cantaloupe. Sorry but no other can compare to this awesome stuff. I made a pig out of myself but with a smile on my face. Next best thing to an Org**** With love, New customer

    I went here their second week and the lady in the morning couldn't have been friendlier. Good food. Apparently they are still in their soft opening on their second week. I had their chorizo and fish tacos and their breakfast burrito. Freshly prepared, quality ingredients. It was good, not yet great and wanted to give this place another try to arrive at a more informed opinion. I tried coming back a second time and came at about 8:35 PM (their sign says they close at 9) and was told they were still in soft opening mode and closed. Next week they will actually be open till 9. Disappointing. I went elsewhere as there are plenty of other mexican food options in the area and will probably keep it that way as I suppose after about 2 weeks their business isn't my there yet to support a Friday night.

    The employees are really friendly, the store is clean and the food is delectable. So far we've tried the tacos de lengua and the quesabirria tacos which were perfect. Menudo and pozole are served daily! Aqua frescas are fresh made in house!

    We DoorDash our order. Our first time and it was pretty good. Food had lots of flavor and big portions. The only downfall was there was no salsa for the food and we didn't get any lemon with our menudo.

    Was in the area for work and stopped in to give this place a try. I'm assuming this is actor Danny Trejo's spot, but I could be wrong, but I will say that was a factor in me visiting this spot. Tried one birria taco and a watermelon Agua fresca and thought it was good. I've had better, but this was a solid lunch spot. It's small inside so don't plan on having a work get together here, it's more of a to-go spot. My taco came with a bag of chips and the consome. Used the chips to dip into the consome and scoop up any meat bits. Also dipped the taco in the consome and it was good. I will say, the taco is floppy and a little messy, but I think that's their motto or it addresses this on the mural inside the store. Other places I've had birria tacos at, the outside is a little more crispy cheese and sturdier, but this one tasted just as good. For being a to-go birria spot in Cypress, it's solid. Also the one taco was pretty big and it had a lot of meat in it. One taco is good but if you're starving, maybe 2 tacos?

    Nachos

    Wow, it's a blessing to have a good and clean queso birria taco place walking distance to our home. I tend to avoid the messy dirty restaurants that have gotten me to have food poisoning in the past. I have trust issues with restaurants with super exposed salsa selections with people talking over the salsas and spit coming out of their mouths and landing on the salsas, or people touching the ladles with unwashed hands to get salsa. This place is super clean. I just wish the salsas were set up higher to avoid spit from people talking and land on the salsas. The spicy carrots and jalapeños are in plastic bags already so those are kept clean. They have a really good selection of your classic salsas like salsa verde or rojo, pico de gallo. I love how they also have the options of chili oil and peanut butter salsa for something different and exotic. Being Asian, I really appreciate those as options. As for the food... wow! Good, clean, and quality ingredients. It would be a big plus if they can put the food over parchment paper to avoid hot food directly on plastic container and avoid BPA... I also love how the staff are very nice and welcoming. Not judging and staring while we get our salsas and spicy carrots, which is a big plus because I avoid those places that make you feel uncomfortable. I wish this place will stay open forever. Place was not busy at all, maybe they need more advertising in social media or signs outside on the main streets of Knott and Katella because it's kinda hidden. I will be telling neighbors and friends to check this place out so it gets more business. I wish this place stays open forever.

The place was busy as usually and we were told that wait would be around 15-20 minutes. We sat at the bar and ordered drinks. I ordered Macallan 12 Yr. and to my surprise, the bartender served it on a brandy glass rather than on a whiskey glass. Bad start. In less than five minutes our table was ready, not where we asked, but on the patio. It was cold and we asked the server to shut off the ceiling fan on top of us. Never happened. We ordered our food and asked for the wine list. Oddly enough the beverage list did not have a wine list, we as the server again for a wine list, another server came and told us that we did not see the wine list on the beverage list. We told him there is not a wine list on the list. A third server brought another similar list with a wine list. We ordered a Joel Gott Cabernet. We got our food but not the wine. We waited and waited and no wine was served. We asked another server to find out about the wine. The original server brought one single glass of wine, and we reminded him that we had ordered a full bottle. Another ten minutes passed and still no wine. By then, we were almost done with our meals. My grandson got up and told the server to forget the wine. Five minutes later another server brought the same glass of wine and left on the table. I thought, well people make mistakes, the place was packed and they felt bad about our bad experience. We got the check and to my surprise they charged me $11 for the glass of wine I did not order. As a former business owner, I always welcomed customers' suggestions.

Service is the same, they're pretty quick at getting your food prepped. Now I said that their carne asada has always been reliable, but my last two times I've ordered a carne asada burrito (sour cream and cheese only) or a CA burrito, IYKYK, their meat has tasted different. It taste like it's some carne asada and then like some other mystery meat, sometimes liver... Either way I stop eating it when I have tasted it being weird. Maybe it's the other meats they serve that get mixed in. I don't dig that. So for that I would rate them down to a 3 star. I'm rating their 3 rolled tacos as 4 stars! It's the best around. It has the crunch and enough meat inside. It's not all tortilla like some places. We always order it with sour cream and cheese only, with carrots on the side.

We ordered 2 carne asada fries, and they only gave us 1 (our order was big). Yesterday, May 17,2026, I drove out here again for my brother's birthday request to do takeout for our entire family. Ordered 2 orders of their rolled tacos, finally got home to see that we only received 1 order of the rolled tacos, not 2 (we also ordered more things).

If something is missing, kindly let them know and receive everything you paid for.
