Quick service food was cooked to order and made for a nice lunch. No wait which was great and the restaurant looked and smelled fairly clean and that's always a Plus. Quick note if you pay cash it's better.

#25. Chilaquiles Verdes Combo Plate
Arnie H.

Best burrito in East Highland and it's not even close. I moved out here and have been looking for a bomb burrito and came across this spot right on the corner of Greenspot and boulder and decided to give it a try with my girlfriend. I'm glad I did! The chilaquiles plate is 11$ and tastes homemade. Comes with a drink, beans and rice. I also got a California burrito and it tastes phenomenal. Their orange salsa was so good and creamy. The chile verde had a very nice flavor as well. The nice lady at the counter was very nice and Will definitely be coming back

Where is the meat?
Agnes W.

Where is the meat? Ordered breakfast burrito - sausage, eggs, potato & cheese. $12.12. The burrito consisted of mostly potatoes, little amount of eggs, cheese & 1 sliver of link sausage. My first & last time visiting this place.

Excellent Mexican food at this location. A carne asada and a bean and cheese burrito was our order. Overall our meals were very good and well portioned. Customer service was excellent, good affordable prices and they have a huge menu.

What's the name of this place?  Albaro's or Alvaros Mexican Food? Two different names on one business.
Justin K.

Drown your burrito in sauce and it may taste alright. Then again, even the sauce is bland. Not even kidding. Food here is mediocre. I feel they would do much better business in a food truck than they would operating a brick and mortar kitchen somewhere. This place hasn't been here for 20 years to look so run down. Bathroom looks unkept and I question myself each time after my first bite, "why did I come here?" There's only three spaces to park your car. Otherwise, you'll have to park your car at the risk of getting towed because each business has designated parking spots. This place has just three. it has always been my luck that I have found one space of three that are designated for this food place. Side note: What's the name of this business? Is it Albaro's or Alvaros Mexican Food? Picture attached. I'll let you decide.

My girl like the food however, carefully choose.. as the menudo is menu-doo doo. There was no meat, each spoon came up empty until I decided to see for myself.

Asked for an updated menu and received a menu with the prices crossed out

This place is way overpriced. The food is just ok but I can't believe how much they charge for simple food.

Beans are pretty 'Lard'y, and gives me a belly ache. Carnitas is a lil fatty too. Used to be a little better but I no longer visit.

Today my husband and I came back to Fuego Cravings ( we went on Friday too for the first time)…read more because we just couldn't get through the weekend without a buirria taco and a campechano taco, one to eat there and one to go for lunch tomorrow . We've eaten a lot of Burria around California and Fuegos is ON POINT! Tender, juicy, with flavor richer than any we've tried! The consome they give you for dipping on the side is more than plenty, so rich and delicious. Best way to enjoy is to get the 2 taco birria with rice (yum) and beans with a drink all for one price. Today we met Maria who took our order and spoke with us about the food. I also am taken back by the the friendly and attentive service we have received both times. I could see how proud Maria was when she was talking about making the various dishes. All made with love and it comes through in the taste of the food. I know I sound like a broken record but I just can't believe we have this restaurant in our local area and haven't crossed its path until now. I'm glad we did though better late than never. I highly recommend Fuego Cravings Highland to even the most critical Mexican foodie.

Really wanted to try the food here at Fuegos cravings in Highland ca…read more As the food looks pretty good. We decided to get some grub after our workout. Hubby was going to order some food to-go until he saw a mandatory service fee is added to everyone's check. "For What"? They said its to help the restaurant lol Of course it is because you're charging more for nothing. So we decided to go grab some grub from somewhere else instead. Like I get prices are high everywhere but we refuse to pay service fees for nothing. I could see if we were going to dine in and we we're a party of 5-6 or more...but charging these types of fees for nothing. Is no bueno!

The salsa was spicy but enjoyable. I was having a bad day so to get to stop on the way home and pick up a meal that just hit the spot. Legit made my day better!! We just found our new spot. I highly recommend coming here. A lot better then a lot of tacos in the area. Tripas were crispy but not old or dry. They cooked everything fresh!! Thank you again todo estaba muy rico!! Can't wait to go back again. Update 7/15 checked online and they got a B rating but haven't changed the sign. I'm not going into detail about what was found wrong but you can look. We all have a place we frequent. B rating or not I'm still coming back

The next day I went and I told the lady what happened and I showed her a picture and a video and she immediately started saying that it's not their fault that it's the the vendors fault and I'm over here expecting her to issue me a refund, but she literally was just staring at me basically like what do you want me to do? When I asked for a refund, she seemed bothered. She really did not care that. I just found a blade in my food .also they charge one dollar just to pay with your debit card, which is dumb because that is against the law. It should only be for credit. So I don't think I'll be going back because of the customer service and the quality of food I was expecting a little more empathy but I guess not
