    Came back again and still love their bowl-rito! Very filling for $10.25. I was bummed they didn't have guac though. I don't get beans with my bowl so they gave extra rice. The lady was also nice to offer us water cups cause we didn't get any drinks. The vibes are still the same, with music in the background.

    I've driven by this place many times and have wondered what's inside and whether the food is good. Well, it's not the best tacos I've had, but not the worst. It really comes down to the staff attention to details and their friendliness. It was apparent they did not want to be there and they just softly spoke questions on what tacos I wanted, that I could hardly hear. The inside seemed to be like a skateboard shop, rather than a restaurant, and really did not have a theme of any kind. I'll be trying other taco shops or even a Taco truck to find the best tacos...

    This is their "Carne Asada" a bunch of tiny shards of burnt beef, all hard as hell. Why they would they serve this is mind boggling.

    This place is freaking awful. Our bowls came with nothing but burnt tiny bits of carne asada. Whoever sent out our food needs to be written up. Waste of money coming to this place. Completely unacceptable. Inedible.

    Chronic Tacos is my favorite place to stop when going through LA! Been to over 5 different locations! The people are great, the food is amazing, and I LOVE the fish burritos!

    Great customer service by Michelle and Janet fresh food with many flavorful combos to eat . Everytime ive visited the pasadena location I always feel the warmth an inviting energy. The service is alway prompt an precise while being clean an mindful of each customer. The ambiance is always nice from music to the visuals. Thank you chronic taco for your hard work an great service.

    After a basketball game, we got 4 free taco coupons that lets us redeem 4 tacos. On a Sunday evening, we decided to go eat at Chronic Tacos for dinner. We ordered two potato tacos, two kids meal burritos, and also decided to redeem the 4 free tacos. They were really nice when they were wrapping our burritos and tacos. However, when we tried paying for our food, they decided to only use one of our coupons. How am I able to use the other three? Driving here and not being able to use our coupons is just crazy. It's ok though because we have 3 more coupons so we have to come here again. Honestly, the food was good, a very big portion if you are very hungry but I'm complaining because we didn't get to use all our 4 tacos. My burrito had some hair inside it but it's ok because it's a big burrito. I was able to eat around it. Please go support Chronic Tacos because they have no business. We need to support them!

If I see "salsa" I'm thinking house salsa. Let's be specific~ Speaking of salsa, I ordered salsa verde and got something more like salsa amarillo? It's the blandest salsa ever. I could get more out of a sauce packet tbh. I don't know if the water down their salsas maybe? Of the (probably) many watered down items served here, this horchata has at least 3x more water than flavor. Also don't know how you can water down the flavor of meat but add that to the list too. I will say texture on the meat is good like I know it's not over or undercooked, but I taste next to nothing. Also received the most solid as a rock limes ever. Confused how that even came to be. This place is full of shiny gimmicks with no substance. If you're looking for good mexican food look elsewhere. It's southern california, you've got options.

When I came in it was near closing time and there was no one sitting inside. I think they were closing up, but I had enough time to order something to go. I ended up ordering two fish tacos. It was neatly packaged and plenty of toppings, along with some salsa on the side. When I finally got around to eating the tacos, it was very tasty and there was a nice crisp to the Ensenada style tacos. I definitely cheer for places like this, and I tend to score a little higher only because I feel like there needs to be more places like this around. Not only that, but they have a pretty extensive menu, but I really just came here specifically for the fish tacos on this visit.

    This is a must try off of lake in Pasadena…read more Reliably good food every time I have been here. Chips and salsa with WARM chips. A to die for pork tomahawk. Amazing happy hour and I highly recommend the dos gringos. Every detail of that dish is made with thought and precision down to the proportions given and the wonderful crisp on the tortilla. Amazing deal! Be careful when ordering sparkling water because they'll bring you an overpriced bottle of sparkling water instead of just their fountain soda water without asking for clarification. I've made that mistake a couple times. Otherwise, I highly recommend Mercado; you can't really go wrong.

Our waiter Gianni's is amazing! Give that guy a raise. The guacamole had onions so I had to pass, and the entire table ate onions and I didn't - so didn't try it. However, the chips and salsa were delicious. The mushroom queso dip is divine. Delicious. Creamy. Addictive. Must order it. I ordered the fillet mignon tacos - they were flattened steak - I'd prefer chopped. Would give the taco more texture. No accompanying sauce - so used the salsa - very good. The avocado was too thick. The mashed potato's were forgettable. I get it - mashed potato's in a Mexican restaurant. But why not add a fusion gravy? Flan for dessert was out of this world. Churros were slightly undercooked. A solid Mexican spot in Pasadena. Would like to try more food options.

For for first timers, I'd recommend ordering the Villa's Trio which is what I got. Those come with the Ranchera Asada quesotaco as well as the Papas con Chorizo and Black Bean con Pollo quesotacos which are a trio exclusive. All the tacos were meaty, flavorful, and crispy. You honestly don't even need the side sauces since the tacos are already flavorful on their own. Great quality. I also got the Watermelon Agua Fresca which was refreshing, tasty, and sweet. Goes well with the tacos. I also got the Jamaica Agua Fresca, but that one was a bit too tart for my liking. The line can get long, so I would prepare to wait for up to an hour on weekends. There's ample free parking at the grocery store lot nearby. For seating and tables, it's limited and competitive. You just have to get lucky if a spot clears up as soon as you get your food. I also like how the restaurant handles crowd control. They allow a couple of people at a time to go inside, order, and get their condiments. You wait outside until they call you for your food. I like that it didn't feel crowded while I was getting my condiments. I highly recommend this spot and I will definitely be coming back.

Nunca volveré en mi vida!…read more I went here yesterday and ALLLL staff were super rude and laughing the whole time, I'm not sure if they were all under the influence of something or we walked into a joke prior but what an uncomfortable experience in this place. It was the only place in the area open until 12 and my friends and I left karaoke at 1130. The experience was so bad I cancelled my order. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito for 5.85 and the cashier told me it cost $2.55 to add sour cream and did some extra weird punching in of things at the register and it went from $7 and some change when I initially said, "can you add sour cream" ? Then I all of sudden had a $9 bean and cheese burrito. My friend ordered in Spanish and told them no ice in her horchata. They put a full cup of ice and wrote it on the receipt in Spanish. Not sure if they were laughing at her ordering? Because her accent isn't super strong and she looks Italian - very fair skin w dark hair (still not a reason) but Ella es Panameña, but they laughed the whole time we were there. She also was missing a taco and they charged her for 3 and they took super long to make her food and they were closing in 15 min for 3 little street tacos. People kept coming from the back to the grill and the front register to laugh and speak Spanish (I speak Spanish) but very unprofessional and super rude establishment and environment. Very weird experience 0 stars - wouldn't recommend
