Rey de Oros is a gorgeously-decorated little spot with lots of menu options. When we arrived, we…read morewere very impressed by the look of the place. Everything was clean and orderly. The service was okay! Nothing super special but they answered questions and were helpful at the counter. This was our first time here so we ordered a few things to sample and share amongst ourselves. The first thing we had was the chips and queso, which I thought was a bit expensive at $7.99 but not too bad. The queso was fairly spicy but otherwise nothing special. I usually love queso so it surprised me how neutral I felt toward it! The chips were good, thin and light with a crispy bite to them. We unfortunately didn't get to try the salsa, noticing only at the end of our meal that there was a sauce bar near the counter! The birria tacos were also...okay. They were very juicy but not very uniquely flavored compared to everything else we tried. The meat was tender and I loved the texture of the tortilla, but didn't care for the massive handful of cilantro dropped on top of everything on the plate. The dipping liquid (birria sauce?) was alright! It was the same flavor as the tacos themselves so it didn't add much, but it definitely wasn't bad. The "main course" of what we ordered was a combo of soft chicken tacos, rice, and beans. The chicken tacos were unfortunately very cold by the time we got them which was a bit strange, as almost everything else was hot! They tasted good but I'm really not a fan of eating cold chicken, so I passed them off to my friends. The beans were just okay. There's really not much to say about them. The rice also left me disappointed! I typically devour Spanish rice. Not only was it cold, there were also odd, hard grains of rice mixed in. Not enough to get one every bite but enough that the experience of eating it was off-putting. It was also quite bland. Another note: While we were eating, there was this constant loud droning coming from the air conditioner. I'm a MASSIVE fan of air conditioning so I'm grateful it was on in the first place, but that is something they really need to get fixed. Two women seated near us actually got up and walked outside after commenting multiple times about how disturbing the noise was. My experience here was definitely a mixed bag but it leaned toward the positive, so we'll likely try them again! They had several other menu items I'd like to try, including some American fare that I found intriguing.

I got the chicken taco salad and it had a lot of flavor. My friend had a Torta. She said it was very good as well. I have also had the 3 chicken enchiladas here before and those were very tasty as well! Their cheese dip was alright. It wasn't my favorite but it was still good. But I am a strickler when it comes to my cheese dip. I like the vibe there! All of the workers were very kind and helpful. The place was clean and the music was good! I would definitely eat here again!

It's been a minute since my last visit to Carmen's, and I'm happy to report that this cozy little…read morespot is still just as clean and the staff just as welcoming as I remembered. Since it was Taco Tuesday, I decided to mix and match a few items: The Puffy Tacos: Carmen's is famous for these, and they were incredibly tasty. If I'm being entirely honest, I remember them being just a little bit puffier on my last visit--but hey, that could easily be a figment of my imagination! Either way, the crispy beef flavor hit the spot. The Pork Tamale: This was the absolute star of the show. It was flat-out delectable. My only regret is that I didn't order two or three more to take home. The Sides: The refried beans were standard but solid. I ended up pairing the whole plate with some fresh avocado and a generous douse of Sriracha, which brought everything together perfectly. It's great to see a local favorite keeping up the hospitality and great food. I definitely won't wait so long to come back next time--especially when those tamales are calling my name!

From the first bite, I could feel the cariño and pasión that went into making it. The chorizo had just the right kick, the bacon added that smoky crunch, and the eggs were soft and fluffy -- all wrapped in a perfectly golden, crispy tortilla. It wasn't just delicious; it was comida con alma -- food with soul. Halfway through, I realized I wasn't just eating -- I was recibiendo energía. The flavors and freshness gave me the kind of fuel my body loves, leaving me feeling light, satisfied, and ready to take on the day. Rancheros doesn't just serve food... sirven amor. And that's the real medicine.

The menu is quite varied from breakfast items to enchiladas and they even had a chilaquiles bowl and several bowl items. My friend goes there consistently for the tostadas and they are certainly large in size. I tried the breakfast huevos con chorizos. it was delicious. great chorizo not at all greasy. they also have great Mexican pops but they also have agua de Jamaica which is one of my favorites. they have an open salsa bar with pickled vegetables and onions. you can't go wrong by just trying all the salsas from mild to hot. next time I'm going to try the street tacos and enchiladas and by the way you can get a lot as a single item which does give you the ability to try different things.

My next visit pretty sure I got the wrong order. I ordered what I thought were the same shells (but the order interface was different) and asked for 1 chicken, 1 shredded beef, 1 ground beef. Got 3 chicken in fried flour tortillas. Pretty sure it was the wrong order. Decent taste, but not satisfying. 3rd (maybe last?) visit, said insisted they don't have shredded beef (it was late, maybe they were just out). Taco shells were over cooked. Ground beef was ok, but not much flavor. If I could get that first taco every time, it's definitely my taco joint. But if I can't rely on a relatively consistent experience, I'll keep looking
