I believe this is the best TACO spot in the greater SB area; Ive only ordered their Tacos. In 2021, I was looking for a solid Taco spot in the Fontana, Rancho and Rialto area but none of them did me justice APART from this place. I ordered their Asada Tacos and lemme tell you, their beef asada by itself is a FLAVOR BOMB - no salsa or guacamole needed. I hope yall give it a try. I came back after 2 years and it's still solid.

My husband and I have been there a couple of times. The food is good. I recommend the squash blossom quesadillas. The pot coffee with cinnamon is delicious. It's one of the places that has good Mexican food. I recommend it. They have a lot of customers on the weekends. The service is good, and it's a quiet place to eat.

The food is quality. Feels more homemade. Handmade corn tortillas, the homemade salsa they give you is great. Lots of different plates. just add rice beans and the tortillas and you're set. The place can look kind of dirty, and you got to be assertive sometimes when ordering. Definitely inquire about all the different plates they have in front. Don't just rely on the menu.

We had a great experience here! Our server was amazing, helping make decisions on what to eat and really going all out to make sure we are getting what we wanted. I had an Al pastor burrito, which she brought out meat for me to try before ordering. It was delicious! My wife had tacos, and these were not street tacos, but full size and a fresh, hand made tortilla. You must try this restaurant

I absolutely love the carnitas from this place. I am from michoacan, where carnitas were invented and I have to tell you, the carnitas here take me back home. So delicious, just keep in mind that if you're going for carnitas, they only have all the cuts on Saturday and Sundays, and they do tend to sell out, so try to go early.
