Salsa tasted bland and looked like it had just been pulled from a freezer. The main positive was that they don't skimp on the meat, which was a pleasant surprise. Service: Staff were friendly. Atmosphere & logistics: Limited seating -- not good for groups. Bottom line & tip: Not recommended for authentic Mexican; if you want something better than Del Taco, come solo or with one other and skip group outings.

I also recommend the birria tacos. AMAZING. The pozole 10/10. If i could eat here everyday I would. I recommend this restaurant to everyone vegan, vegetarian, or not. The food is just THAT good. Service is amazing. This place deserves all the success in the world.

I'm more than happy to support taco stands and street vendors if it's clean, but what I saw when…read morethey were making my food was concerning. First, I saw a young man dump out precooked chicken from grocery store plastic bags onto the grill. My food had lettuce on it and there wasn't any cut up, so he got a whole head of iceberg lettuce... unwashed... and started chopping it and then put it on my food. Lastly, the man I paid was wearing gloves and cooking meat. He took my money with the gloves still on. After the transaction, he used hand sanitizer on the gloves and continued cooking. While these in and of itself are concerning, I'm more concerned about the food prep that I don't see. I paid for and took the food, but I couldn't eat it after what I saw. These people are obviously hard workers and have tasty food -- I hope that they have continued success while maintaining a safe and clean environment.

Quick order in a fairly short line. The guy behind the counter who took our order was very friendly…read moreand accommodating, especially as I asked if I could order my Migas with no onions (no problem-yay!). My husband got 2 tacos, brisket and chicken and a side of chips. I through in a side of crispy potatoes. This was a nice cool Sunday evening around 6pm, the vibe was full-ish but still places to sit. There's a big bar around the cook area inside where you order or a covered patio outside area (with heating if necessary). We had a lovely evening, so we sat at the end of a bench. Our food came to our table I'd say within 10-15 minutes of ordering. I honestly could have shared mine. It was a lot with those potatoes, and even my husband who's a thin guy said one of those tacos would have been sufficient (and he could have helped me with mine...haha). We were just in the area visiting our kids, we come down frequently from NorCal, so we will definitely hit up this place again now that we've found it in the near future. So good and super relaxed and easy.

Homestate I love you but PLEASE bring back the old sauce (squeeze) bottles. These glass ones are…read moreawful. When you try to get the salsa out, only liquid pours onto the tacos and you don't actually get any of the salsa goodness until you wack the bottle SO hard and then it comes FLOODING out. I ate my tacos sans salsa because I couldn't even get it to come out of the bottle. What a bummer because their salsa is delicious! I got my usual brisket breakfast taco and it was just sopping wet. I don't recall it ever coming out that juicy. It was delicious, but super soggy. I also ordered my tacos on the corn tortillas which were good, but their flour tortillas are definitely the star. One soggy taco isn't going to deter me from coming back, I do love the food here. Just wanted to provide feedback on those sauce bottles! Love, A salsa girlie

Everything is packaged to-go, as there is only one lonely table out front to eat on the spot. I came in again for their delicious Consommé, a Taco Dorado, A Birria Soft Taco and a Birria Burrito.

The service is friendly and they do a good job loading up your order with plenty of salsa and condiments. If you have never tried Birrieria San Marcos, you are missing out!
