I have been eating at California tacos since 2011 and it is a place I frequent with my friends and family to get delicious food. They serve HORCHATA here!!! This he's to find sweet drink is made with milk and cinnamon and has a bit of rice cooked in it. If you're a frequent horchata drinker- they have it!!!! If you've never had it- I 10/10 recommend. The California sampler is my favorite meal since it had so many items from the menu and is cheap for how much food they give you!!!!!

Shockingly Surprised, then disappointed…read more 2 visits with different outcomes. 1st was enjoyable, tacos were decent, margs were well made, and the prices were reasonable. Fell for the consum"ay" with the burria tacos 2nd visit, tacos were a sloppy greasy mess. Burria tacos tasted old and reheated, fried avocado tacos were gross, The drinks, we were not forewarned that a double means you pay double the price for a drink. Bill went from affordable to overpriced. To be honest, this place doesn't serve authentic tacos. It's one of those taco places that invents greasy messy (mac and cheese topped everything pun) tacos and I think they should serve a basic good fresh street taco that isn't dependent on some greasy add ons to try to be clever. Probably won't be back. Thanks

Sad that Dr. Duffs is no longer here but wanted to give this one a try since I am a taco fiend. I…read morereally wanted to like this place. But here are some of my honest opinions: Likes: - staff was great! Super nice and friendly. I gave an extra star mainly for them. - the Queso fries were good - the birra tacos were good but just a bit on the salty side. - the atmosphere looked cool Dislikes: - The boom boom crispy shrimp tacos- I don't enjoy lettuce in tacos and they loaded it with way too much sauce. It felt drenched so I couldn't really finish it. - Nashville hot fried chicken tacos- again too much lettuce and way too much sauce which seemed like sour cream. The chicken wasn't crispy and the taste was just ok. - and avocado tacos- way too much mayo all over this taco. It was overbearing. Might work for some people but not for me. - the smell of the unfinished wood was a bit too strong for my senses. Im always open to trying new taco spots and I hope they keep improving.

Amazing food and menu. Will have to return multiple times to try the rest of the menu. Went with…read morethe Mojo Pork and Korean Fried Cauliflower tacos. Both flavorful and prepared perfectly. Black beans and rice were very good sides. Chip's and homemade salsa made for a good starter. Chips were lightly seasoned and a little thicker than most places. Bowls are excellent chicken seasoned perfectly and prepared perfectly. Our server Olivia did a great job and the entire staff was friendly and helpful. Can't wait to return

Visited again back in June 2025 solo as a birthday treat & noticed the POS calculated a 25% tip came up as $9.33 instead of $7.02 on a $28.08 bill. It was odd but still tipped well.

We ordered the mango guacamole and it was good. We also had the brisket quesadilla, messy but delicious. So that's the good. They ran out of liquor for the drink I ordered actually 2 drinks . They had none of the items with pork cause they ran out. We sat some time before someone came over and ask for our drink order. They should have atleast offers water when we sat down , I think we were sitting for over 10min before we ordered drinks and then it was awhile after that before we got them. Who ever is managing this place really needs to figure out how to order inventory properly so they are not running out of things all the time. And you have to work on you seat to drink times. Over all Id go again cause the wait staff was wonderful and when we finally got or orders of what they actually had available it was good. So don't be in a hurry.

really wanted to give this place a fair shot, but after three separate visits, I'm officially done…read more * The Food: The biggest letdown was the Tacos Al Pastor. Al pastor should be juicy and tender, but here the meat was incredibly dried out and lacked any depth of flavor. To make matters worse, the tacos were served cold every single time. For a place named after their tacos, this is a major failure. * The Atmosphere: The noise level is completely out of control. It isn't just "busy"--it's so loud that it's actually uncomfortable to sit through a meal. * The Service: The service matches the food quality: poor and inattentive. After three chances, it's clear these aren't just "off nights"; it's the standard. I won't be back. There are plenty of other spots where you can get hot, fresh tacos in a much better environment. Since you've had a rough run with the local taco scene lately, are you looking for a different style of food for your next night out, or do you want a recommendation for a more reliable spot nearby?

I personally think they're better than Chipotle and their ingredients taste fresher.

When you look at the food court option in the Warwick mall I would highly recommend this as an option!

After doing a little bit of studying and work at Panera I decided to come to the Warwick mall and to the wonderful hidden taco joint. What I love is the fact that everyone's right made fresh and in front of you unlike the other process foods that I will get around the mall in a bag and re-heated. I stopped going to the Chinese next door because my stomach don't feel right after. I have included all the friendly staff. The have gotten to warm up because I am most likely their number one customer. There is always a friendly face and smile. I definitely put this as five star for the staff and food. Go and support these local mom and pop shop. I have pictures of the food and friendly staff.
