    Best customer service
    Karen E.

    Best customer service great yummy food! Cilantro sauce was amazing. Need to add to all items

    Long Burrito
    Vainuupo R.

    I #love chronic tacos, they make the best food in newps and the view of balport is in-freaking-credible. Not to mention the amazing service of the kind hearted workers, they have. They make the best long burritos with extra meat.

    By far the best chronic location in Orange County. I have been coming here for the last 20 years and the service has never waivered from perfect. Will continue to come for the great food and amazing service.

    Ness V.

    My man and I have been coming here every Monday night for the last 5 weeks and we have nothing but amazing things to say! Hands down best potato tacos! each time we come we get potato tacos and a bean and cheese burrito. The beer battered shrimp is so juicy! Tortillas are fresh and full. Green salsa is our favorite but the cilantro crema on top of the bowlrito was fabulous. Not only is the food just super, the staff are super attentive, quick and efficient as well as friendly. They make our whole experience worth the drive as we are from LA county :))

I am so glad I did, especially since it was happy hour. The place definitely has a great vibe to it. Plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. I recommend sitting at the bar as that's where all the action happens. You definitely want to make sure you get there for happy hour and Taco Tuesday especially, $10 Margaritas $4 tacos and these are not cheap tacos. These are like serious tacos that will fill you up. Their salsa is great, not super spicy and makes great for munching while you're talking with friends. The margaritas are definitely strong, which is nice, as some places tend to water them down for happy hour. I would say that this is a great choice to go check out and have a taco or two or three or four. I had the carne asada, the carnitas, and the pastor, every single one of them was perfect and the salsa that they came with was out of this world. Bottom line? This is a great place for Taco Tuesday as well as just a hangout and have a drink after work. Whenever I am in Costa Mesa. I am definitely coming here again.

It's so flavorful, I miss the Huntington Beach location and having access to it. The tortilla chips at the Newport location are the BEST! They are thin and crispy compared to other El Ranchitos. Of course the salsa is 5/5 too. My husband had the mahi veggie bowl which didn't have enough seasoning. It was a hearty size but lacked flavor. The service is always good, they check in with us repeatedly during our dining. The restaurant is kept very clean and has an old charm to it. It's definitely our go to as a sit down Mexican restaurant. There's something to be said that it has been around for 50 years.

Staff was so friendly when we came in, and thankfully it wasn't too busy on a weekday afternoon, so we were sat immediately. We were loving our waitress, she was so happy and pleasant to interact with. She brought over some chips and salsa, made some recommendations, and already had our drink orders being delivered within the first 5 min. I am happy to say that the entire menu, healthy or more indulgent, is fantastic. I had to eat a little lighter this particular day, so I went with the Baja Bowl with chicken and no rice. Healthy? Check! Absolutely delicious? Check! Possibly one of the best taco bowls ive ever had? CHECK CHECK! So much flavor for being on the lighter end of the dining spectrum. For the record, the day added to the experience too, because this restaurant is open air. Especially if you're sitting right by one of the open windows, you get that refreshing, ocean air coming through, the entire experience makes you feel like you're on vacation. Great spot, highly recommend, we need one of these out in Arizona. It would be the best Mexican Food spot in all of Phoenix valley!!
