You guys kill it!! The location wasn't open for months after I just moved into the area. I was…read moresuper sad. It's back up and I hit it tonight for taco Tuesday. Fish and carnitas. Both excellent! And at a great price. Your website says it closes at 7:30, but sign in front says 9. Might want to check that out. Glad to have you back in my new hood. Best grab and go in this area, hands down.

It's room temperature. Sometimes pieces are very chewy sometimes even get some tender pieces today the chicken was kind of lukewarm. The Carnitas and tri-tip were warmer. The go to I think that rarely disappoints is the Carnitas taco. I'll probably be ordering this one a little more from here on out as it usually comes out hot and the meat is tender and juicy.

After a few morning visits during a work trip, I can definitely understand why Las Golondrinas has…read moresuch a low rating. Full disclosure: I did have one of the best breakfast burritos of my life (Naopalitos Breakfast Burrito, where have you been all my life?!?) However, everything else I had here was about average, at best. And nothing could make up for the absolutely ambivalent to the point of being rude service I got all three visits! Honestly, they care more about their to-go and Door Dash business and can't be bothered with walk-ins. So if you are going to give them a shot after this, call your order in, pay in advance, and grab your sack and leave. That's what they seem to expect from their customers. Trust me on this one...there's plenty of killer options within a 3 minute drive if here. If you're craving great Mexi and actually want to be treated with dignity, try someplace else.

New owners took over Aliberto's Jr in Aliso Viejo. It's actually inside the Shell gas station but…read morethey have a drive-thru too. I came here for taco Tuesday and they have $0.99 tacos! Although I think they increased the prices slightly to $1.99 from the sign by the register. If you order via kiosk, make sure to navigate to the SPECIALS to get the discounted pricing. I actually ordered a breakfast burrito too but was told they only make them between 6 am and 11 am. The guy behind the counter offered me extra tacos but I think he still shortchanged me on food. No matter the tacos were a steal for the price! I ordered all the meats. I think we enjoyed the carnitas and al pastor more than the asada and beef cheek. I did go back during morning hours to grab two breakfast burritos for $4.99 each plus tax. Not a bad price. They have a salsa bar with free tortilla chips inside for you to pack into small containers, should you want. Service was fast and the salsa bar was wiped down. I'm glad to have found a decent Taco Tuesday spot nearby!

I have tried 3 times to give this place a try and never again. I want to support small businesses…read morebut when a simple cheese quesadilla and regular fries are inedible, well... The cheese quesadilla was a greasy floppy mess that tasted like it had been cooked on a dirty grill. And the outer 1/4 edges were dry and contained no cheese. It came with nothing at all. Nada, no pico, no sour cream, no guac, and was tossed into a small container in a lumpy pile. I ate some of it but def do not feel well now. The fries. I have never seen fries that looked this bad. They looked like horribly sliced unpeeled dirty potatoes that were an unappetizing color, limp, and soaked in old cooking oil. Not a single crispy fry. Completely inedible . Had to throw away. Even my dog was like wtf is that. I tried to support this place but never again

There's plenty of seating, the service is fast, and there's ample parking. The restaurant is loud because it gets crowded and they have a lot of employees. Restrooms are available for customers only.

If you like mild food this place is definitely for you. There food also under-salted. We had to ask for a salt shaker to season our food. We had leftovers and I didn't take them home. I may try again it again. Maybe next time it'll be better.

Fresh, piping hot, and full of flavor. It's not often that I find myself more impressed by a green salsa over a red but WOW.

Very excited to try their breakfast burritos (served til 12) and happy this place has arrived to SC

After walking my pups around Dana Point Harbor, I just had to stop by their San Clemente location.... Cool joint in the historical part of the city...parking was a bit tight, but just look around, a spot will open up, plus (spoiler ALERT) the burritos are well worth it... ;) The staff are friendly and cool, and walked me thru the ordering process...they even give you one of those buzzer pager thingys to let you know when your order is ready... I wanted a variety, so I ordered what I consider the 4 most popular (in my opinion) Chile Relleno burrito....friggin' AWESOME! If you like chile rellenos, this is for you....the poblano chile and cheese are off the charts.. Chile Colorado burrito...Amazing, and especially tasty with the red chile sauce and potatoes... Chile Verde burrito...Probably my fav, the pork and green sauce light up your tastebuds with all the flavors of Chihuahua Mexico...mouthwatering ;) Picadillo burrito...Tastes like your fav Mexican stew all wrapped in a warm homemade tortilla... Speaking of tortillas, did you know these guys hand make their own burritos in-house, adding to the authentic tastes of these bad boy burritos.... My advice to you, Walk, Drive, Run, Hop, Crawl (after a few beers ;) or call a Taxi (do they even have taxis anymore?? hah!)....Whatever you need to do, get down to one of their locations and get your burrito fix on....Save yourself airfare to Chihuahua Mexico, and just go to Los De Juarez Burritos, you'll Thank me later ;) Cool peeps, Excellent burritos and a Very clean restaurant! (Yes, I did use the baño, just number 1 sicko, and it was spotless!) Highly Recommended! (What are you still doing reading this review, why aren't you on your way to Los De Juarez??.?)

I went to El Cortez last week and here is my experience: SCAM! Terrible in every way! Swindlers!…read moreBait and switch service by the bartender and the owner. DISHONEST! Read all the one-star reviews; they all say the same thing! Watered-down drinks (I'd bet my left bicep that all of the high-end alcohol in those displayed bottles has been replaced with either water or low-quality booze), hard sales pitch on upgrading the alcohol and selling extra shots (which we declined), but when we got the bill, it showed drinks we NEVER ordered plus dishonestly upcharged alcohol that was never ordered and then added on to the bill! Prices on the menu different than what they charge--they play dumb and have been for years (check all the reviews). Felt like I was back in Mexico--muy autentico! This wasn't a "one off" because it happened again on a different visit, to a large group of us. And when we complained, the bartender gaslit us and refused to remove the wrong charges and dishonest upcharges to cheat us out of our hard-earned money. Criminals! Thieves! Scam artists! We vowed to never, EVER return again because this is clearly part of their standard dishonest "business practices." The owner is one shady individual (a nice elderly couple outside told us that this restaurant is known in this area for being highly dishonest and disreputable), and the greedy owner clearly doesn't care about the people who dine here. Bait and switch is the name of the game at this establishment, plus tiny portions of subpar but overpriced food that gives stomach issues (AKA FOOD POISONING) as a bonus, stale chips, extra charges for everything possible (hoping the customer won't notice), different prices than listed, bartenders who are told to water down drinks and tack on lots of extra charges to the bill to cheat customers, servers who seem terrified of the volatile and hostile management (we saw the owner screaming at staff), dirty crumbs all over the chairs and seats because there apparently is no working busboy to wipe up the tables and booths properly...I could go on. The ONLY good thing about this place was the salsa--muy spicy with good flavors. Other than that, there was nothing to redeem this squalid little hole in the wall. Watch your bills carefully, people! And ask yourselves this question: how does a business like this stay operating for 30+ years when there are never any people dining there (it's empty 90% of the time), they open late and close early, they serve inedible food, they don't care if diners never return due to terrible food and watered-down drinks and false charges, and they play games with the alcohol, drinks, and pricing in order to CHEAT customers? Plus they don't care if a cockroach or two lingers about? Hmmm, seems I should get my laundry done there... maybe the owner should "tell" me about the "car?" ;) Maybe this place should be investigated by law enforcement or elected officials, if you know what I mean. (Uh oh, hope I haven't jeopardized my life by telling the truth about this place, lol.) Final verdict: Dine (or drink) here at your own risk.
