SO YUMMY! My boyfriend had to make a delivery for work and I went with him. Since we were in the area, we asked the client a good place to check out. He recommended Aztek Tacos, which was perfect because I was craving Mexican food. The place is really big, two seperate rooms. I figured since we arrived at an off time (around 4:40pm) that it would be super dead inside, but it was really busy. There was a small line with about 3 people in front of us which worked out nicely since I had no idea what to order. I finally decided on the salmon tacos, shrimp tacos and fried fish (tilipia) taco with a side of rice and beans. I ordered that, plus a drink and it came with chips for about $20, not too bad because it was A LOT of food! The salmon taco was seriously amazing. Super fresh, moist and flavorful. Also a HUGE piece of fish. The shrimp tacos were equally as delicious, also very flavorful! The fried fish taco was eh. I wasn't a huge fan, and wish I ordered another salmon or shrimp. I'm glad I saved that one to try last because I just picked around it. The rice was so good and the beans were too! They even have the nice coca cola machine where you can mix all your flavors. I love that! Lots of salsas ranging from 1-6 in spiciness. My boyfriend got the quesatacos. Wow--talk about "healthy" but honestly worth trying! It's fried cheese and inside it's stuffed with all your taco fixings. A tortilla is wrapped around that. Very unique and a must order! read more

Aztek Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

Every time I come here it's jammed packed and the line is almost out the door. That's a great thing when you see a line that long it means the food is great and worth waiting for. The food is so good and tasty I never had a complaint and probably never will. They have one of those soda machines with over 100 flavors. They also have a decent patio which a lot of people eat at so I just eat inside. They have one tv and the location is a little small but I like it a lot and can't wait to eat here again. read more

I never write reviews but being a registered nurse I was disgusted because we are in a middle of a covid pandemic. Literally they gave me the wrong order with my order, I got to my car and opened It (unwrapped burrito) and the girl came out, pounded on my window, and took the order back. I said please don't give it to the right person because i touched it and she grabbed it from me anyway and said "I need those burritos". I'm horrified. I didn't even want them but she definitely gave them to whoever ordered it because it was chaos in there. read more

AMAZING. Growing up all over SoCal I've eaten Mexican food at least once a week my entire 49 years on this earth. I have NEVER had anything like this. These guys have reinvented everything on the Mexican food menu and KILL IT!!! The quesotaco... I'm sorry my mouth just drooled all over my iPhone. Just finished a chorizo and egg burrito and Danuta ordered a quesoburrito, Machaca without the tortilla (she is gluten free), and the damn thing is a work of freaking genius. See my photo!!! Do yourself a favor and make the trip. read more

Aztek Tacos - Gluten free!!!!! Machaca quesoburrito, no tortilla!!! C'mon!!!!! - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

Really wanted to like this taco shop. But was disappointed though. First of all, it seemed over priced. My bean, rice, and cheese was a $7 burrito. That's a lot for a burrito, so I expected a substantial burrito. I also paid extra for French fries to be added with the bean, rice, and cheese. If I was rating the tortilla alone, I would give 5 stars. The tortilla was very fresh, and was grilled to perfection. The contents however, I give a 2-3 star. Bean, rice, and cheese burrito.... With no cheese?! I literally had one bite of cheese in my whole burrito. It was mostly beans and rice. And what happened to the French fries?? Charged me extra to add fries, I found 4 French fries tops in the burrito. Not worth the extra charge. So the burrito as a whole gets 3 stars, factor in the high price, takes this place down to a 2 star in my opinion. The quesadilla I ordered was fine. No complaints there, but nothing above average either. Same goes for the side of guacamole. BOTTOM LINE for $17 I will take my business elsewhere. For fast food Mexican food, I'd rather go to Miguel's Jr. And pay half the price for the same size burrito but with cheese!!! Comparison: Aztec Tacos BRC= $5.79 Miguel's Jr BRC= $2.29 read more

Aztek Tacos - Dissected my BRC with french fries added. Where is the cheese?? Only 4 french fries in the whole burrito. Dissapointed. - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

As a native San Diegan (and Tijuana taco buff), I am surprised to find myself saying that I found an amazing Mexican place so far north of the border! Stopped in to Aztek Tacos today, after a three year absence. I was really craving Mexican food and for whatever reason, the name stuck out in my mind. I ordered a Pollo Asada burrito and a chicken Caesar salad to share with mi Madre. Prior to sitting down we grabbed some yummy radishes, sautéed onions and salsa from the salad bar to go with our complimentary chips. Our food arrived, piping hot, shortly thereafter. The burrito was so large we ended up not even getting to the salad and taking it home for dinner instead. I would absolutely recommend this little shop. My only recommendation is to bring a fly swatter (they were everywhere). read more

Made a stop at Aztek Tacos after wine tasting since it was the highest rated restaurant in the area. The nachos were massive. Lots of meat, lots of cheese. Guacamole was just okay. Overall, satisfying and inexpensive. I like how the grill is open so you can see your food being prepared. They also make their own chips which you can also see being fried right in front of you. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area. read more

Since it was our first time here we ordered mix such as the chicken tortilla soup, beef tongue burrito, and 3 different tacos: carne asada, al pastor, and beef tongue. The food is good, but after we ordered and sat down, there were flies and more flies. Ugh Wait time: There was no line when we walked in on Sunday evening but by the time we were ready to leave the line was almost out the door. Service: Rafael was the cashier, he was helpful and pleasant. He gave us a menu to look at as we didn't know what to try. Later he came by our table and asked how is everything? Food: everything was tasty. However, you must read the menu as their burritos only come with 2 or 3 items. For example, the tongue burrito only had cilantro and onions. We had to ask and pay more for sour cream tomatoes. They have alcoholic drinks listed on their menu but don't serve them. I asked for a margarita and they said they no longer sell it and it used to be wine based drinks anyhow. Yes margarita with no tequila, tequila from wine! Either way they didn't have it. The Soda machine has over a 100 choices of drinks. One major complaint: there were flies inside of the restaurant. I know they don't have control over flies coming in. But I saw several flies which grossed me out and we had to keep moving our hands around so they didn't sit on our food. I wonder if these flies are sitting on the food while they are preparing it. Ugh read more

The carne asada burrito and the mulita is splendid. Their carne asada is tremendous They are a bit like tacos Tijuana but better. There are flies. The flies are annoying. But I'm judging the food and I think the flies are in the scene because they only live 3 days and this is the place to be. The service is also very good. No complaints. The flies are a bummer but I'm sure most days they are asked to leave. We will see on next review read more

Thanks for the reccmendation fellow Yelpers!!! I am a pro restauranteur (is that a word?) It takes a lot to get a 5 star review from me, & it takes a whole lot of goodness to get a 5 star review for Mexican! We walked into an empty resturant & by the time we left it was packed inside. I had the special house taco, the steak & shrimp taco & the fish taco. The guacamole is good. 5 stars for parking 5 stars for cleanliness & newness 5 stars for the soda machine with 100 options 5 stars for the speed of service. 5 stars for the variety of salsas 5 stars for the speed of service 5 stars for making the family happy & full 1 star for the meat In the burrito, it was overcooked. 1 star for the price. I ordered a combo (rice, beans, 3 tacos) and a drink, & it was $ 20!! 1 star for fish taco, I just threw it away. read more

My family likes the carne asada burritos . I don't eat red meat, so fish tacos are what I used to get. I don't know what happened but they went from having an "ok" fish taco to having a greasy one. This happened the last 2 times . The fish also did not taste well. I don't want to get food from there anymore. read more

Good food but the staff is rude. If they assume you are white ( I'm third generation Hispanic), they are rude. One of the employees was staring at me in a threatening way. No way my family and I are going back. Management needs to step in and correct this. read more

Absolutely delicious food. Their entire menu is great. I love their fish tacos but EVERYTHING is good!

First time here, we did take away so this review is based upon that. Our order was 3 rolled tacos, chicken, a salmon taco and a steak and shrimp taco- all excellent. Very fresh, not overly spiced with really delicious flavors in a nice harmony. Worth another visit for sure. read more

CUSTOMER BEWARE!!! Very rude staff, if you are white then expect the cooks to make you feel uncomfortable while you wait in line. The place has gone down hill and now serve aged food thinking that the customers won't know the difference. Not worth the high prices that they charge. read more

Go to for Mexican food. Little pricey it it's worth it. Quality of food and the people are great.

This shop has the flavors and es muy delisioso! Very clean inside and just need to be patient because they cook to order. But trust me it's worth the wait. read more

I love this place but they lag. The food is excellent but they don't know how to manage a restaurant. They could streamline how they take orders in house and to go and it would greatly improve how they do business. The other thing I noticed recently was they precook the Carne y pollo and just reheat it when you order. I will wait a few extra minutes for fresh cooked meat guys. The main issue is the phone/to go orders. They are put on the back burner when they are busy. read more

So the tacos are good. We enjoy them. But what really sets this business apart and why we will continue to give them our business is their inclusiveness. I see some people are upset there was a drag comedy show scheduled. I could not be more proud and happy to see drag in our community. Any business that shows this much support will get all my money. And to be honest I am extremely thankful that those who are close minded are commenting. I really want to make sure they are seen for who they are... small. This world needs less hate. Less "us vs them". Let's be honest... tacos bring joy. Food and sitting together eating and talking brings joy. That's what the drag community brings. They bring joy, celebration of community, acceptance of everyone who sits at the table. Plus it is just smart business to welcome everyone's dollar!! I genuinely feel sad for the customers that are so threatened because a business is trying to reach more customers. Keep the shows going. You'll get my money and I'll bring all my friends! read more

The place was packed which leads to the illusion that the food is good. No daily specials and the menu is pretty standard. The food is wayyyy overpriced $6.79 for a bean burrito that was flavorless and $9.49 for a small portion of carne asada fries. The fries are frozen string fries, not fresh and not substantial enough for a true "carne asada fries" plate. The guacamole isn't true guacamole, it's diluted to obviously make it stretch. The bean burrito was small for the price. After placing our order we were asked if we'd like to "purchase some chips." For the prices this place charges, you'd think they'd at least include a chip bar, as most places do. (Tacos are $3-4 a piece). The cup in the picture is for comparison, it's a 6 oz cup. Staff was friendly and the place was clean so 2 stars for that. read more

I tried many times and I really do not like it. The fish tacos are greasy. They use a very low quality fish too.

This was a regular spot for our family. Love the burritos, tacos, fajitas. Great pricepoint and quick, casual eat for the family! Hint- look for coupons in the local ads. We always used a $5 off $25. read more

So you think you have eaten a great taco or Burrito.... Let me tell you, when you eat and bite into steak, shrimp or any protein in most restaurants, you don't taste the protein, too much seasoning takes away flavor from what you're actually eating.... Not here at Aztec Tacos, WOW, what a pleasure it was to bite into my Burrito and be able to taste everything in it , all ingredients balanced to showcase proteins they right way, I will be a regular here, Manuel is the Chef/Owner here and not only are they slammed but also they have fun doing what they do, come and enjoy great food the right way!!! read more

You can't get any fresher Mexican food in Temecula! Tortillas made right in front of you! Adobada cooked and sliced right there! And of course the Ceviche topped with fresh sliced avocados, fresh squeezed lime and some Tapitio is one of my favorites! If you are ever in Temecula and you are driving back from one of the Winery's make sure you stop by for some down right fresh Mexican food! read more

This joint is top notch!! Asada and shrimp burrito, quesotaco with pastor and queso with chorizo all amazing. The quesotacos were insane! The tacos were awesome. The burrito was stuffed, and not with rice. Queso was delicious. Great atmosphere and service. They have a bar in the back. I'm not from Temecula. I'm used to Santa Ana taco shops. This place was Legit. Super legit. read more

Used to be a loyal customer of this place but for the last couple months they ha e no idea what they are doing. Twice in the last month I phoned in an order and went in to collect it to be told they gave my order away to someone else and I'd have to wait another 30 mins for them to re do it. I'm done. They have lost my business and anyone else I can convince to go elsewhere. Shame as it WAS a good place to eat. read more

Came here with my husband today. Was excited because all the great reviews and employees were friendly. I got the taco plate he got a torta. Both al pastor. The pastor was chewy and no flavor. And the tacos and rice were cold. I was extremely disappointed. My husband said the torta wasnt bad. At least the torta was warmed. The meat in tacos was cold and chewy with no flavor. I was extremely disappointed. My tummy is full but not satisfied. If i had time to get a different meal from somewhere else after this i would have threw it away, and got something else. But i just wasted my money here. I would have rather drove 35 min to lake elsinore for some real authentic delicious Mexican food. My craving for delicious tacos was not satisfied and i am extremely upset i just wasted money here. Would never come back and would not recommend if youre looking to satisfy a craving for real delicious Mexican food. read more

Aztek Tacos in my favorite Mexican spot in the Temecula/Murrieta area. Everything that I have ever eaten here has been really good from there tortas, chile rellenos, burritos, ceviche, pozole, and much more. They have yummy homemade tortillas and a delicious salsa bar with a good variety of salsas. They also give you chips to eat while you wait for your food. One of my favorite aspects of this restaurant is that they have an orange bang and pineapple- coconut beverage machine which alot of places don't have. They have a good amount of seating inside and they also have patio seating. There is even a bar inside where you can hang out and enjoy some alcoholic beverages while you eat. The place is pretty clean and the service is decent. read more

The al pastor nachos were horrible the meat is dry and cold as if it's not fresh and was sitting there. The nachos hardly had anything on them and most of my the nachos were chips with nothing on them. The asada tacos are ok but I've had better they have hardly any flavor and you need more toppings to add to make them better. Definitely not the same place that it used to be. read more
