Passing by on the way home and really wanted a burrito for the road and didn't want fast food. I was lucky enough to pass by this place! Perfect sized burrito. I got the chicken and added cheese. The chicken was so tender and juicy! No dryness in sight! The sides of salsa were great. I was worried it would be half beans and dominate the burrito but I was glad it didn't. Perfect amount of chicken to rice and beans ratio. I would love to come back and try the wet burrito when I have time to sit down. Service was great. The shop looked nice and inviting. 10/10! read more

Really great place to come and enjoy some Mexican food. The bean and cheese burrito was great and so was the cactus street taco. I didn't order anything with molè but I was allowed a sample and omg it was delicious! They offer happy hour and have plenty of seating. Staff/owner? Was really kind and welcoming. I look forward to returning. They also are on Too Good To Go which is a huge bonus! Thank you for considering food waste and helping curb food going to the landfill! Love that read more

This place had some nice vegetarian options, and their beans didn't have lard! I really enjoyed the veggie tacos as well as the horchata! The horchata tasted like it was made from scratch. The store has a few tables and plenty of parking. The staff was really sweet and helpful when I was asking him about ingredients. The tacos were pretty small so I would recommend getting three! read more

I came here for National Taco Day. I wanted to try some place I haven't been to. I ordered two Asada tacos, two Alpastor, and a been and cheese burrito. They really load the meat on the tacos. Next time I may ask for more cilantro since it's a favorite of mine. I will ask for spicier salsa. The burrito was tasty too. Service was really good. The lady working was always checking to see how I was doing, and if I liked the food. I had to tell her it was National Taco Day though. read more

My husband and I came across this place as we were on the way to the grocery store. We wanted a quick snack and shared nachos. The service was great! We got the nachos with half carne asada and half chicken, it hit the spot. Definitely worth checking out this quaint place. read more

El Buen Sabor - Nachos with carne asada and chicken - Tacos Near Me - Tustin, California

The service here is always so attentive & friendly. They also bring everything to you which I love. The place is clean, well lit and has lovely, colorful murals on the wall that really bring life to the place. And the food itself isn't super greasy like most taquerias I go to (tho neither is a bad thing). It tastes much more like homestyle, relying less reliant on heavy amounts of salt/lard and has you leaving the restaurant filling full yet not grossly full. And while I love hot salsa the mild salsa here is 10/10 read more

Finally had a chance to stop by and the food was great with fast service. I got the breakfast burrito with ham and added potatoes.

Every time I've visited this place the service has been exceptional. The food is also excellent! I decided to try the tacos in taco Tuesday since they have the 2 dollar taco special and I wasn't disappointed. My favorite was the Al pastor. I'm very picky when it comes to the seasoning and spices on Al pastor meat and this place hit it out of the park. Can't wait to try other items on the menu! read more

It's so cute inside! I always get take out because I live so close. The food is fresh and yummy! Great service too! I've had nachos, tacos, shrimp burrito, and chips and guac. All very delicious! read more

El Buen Sabor is truly a hidden gem in Tustin. Under new ownership for the past year, the restaurant has been completely revamped with a new menu, new cooks, and a fresh new look. Disregard the older reviews there associated with the past owners. Having visited twice, I can confidently say this place has become my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. Each time, I had their chicken torta with cucumber lemonade. The torta's bread was perfectly toasted--crisp on the outside yet soft and airy inside. It cradled a generous portion of tender, marinated chicken that was succulent and bursting with flavor, complemented by fresh avocado, crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and a tangy, homemade sauce. The cucumber lemonade was refreshing and perfectly balanced, a delightful palate cleanser that paired wonderfully with the rich flavors of the torta. The birria tacos were also a true highlight. The fresh, warm tortillas were filled with tender, juicy beef that practically melted in your mouth. The meat was richly seasoned and slow-cooked to perfection, creating an explosion of flavors with each bite. I literally crave their food when I'm at work. El Buen Sabor is easily the best Mexican restaurant in OC, and I'm so glad I discovered this place. If you're looking for authentic, delicious Mexican cuisine, this is the spot to visit. read more

El Buen Sabor - Chicken torta with crispy bread - Tacos Near Me - Tustin, California

My favourite food in Tustin! A few mistakes on the order ahead for pickup form online, so better to order in person and just wait for takeout. read more

A family friend recommended this place to cater our end of year school party and it was fabulous. I went there for lunch to check out the food and I was sold the minute I had their chicken taco with their avocado sauce. Chicken is hard to do, it can get dry easily, bland and et cetera, but their chicken was moist and packed with flavor. We ended up catering 5 lbs of asada, 4 lbs of al pastor and 3 lbs of chicken with a full tray of rice and chicken and BAM did not disappoint on the flavor. I did have one miscommunication with Kari about the lbs of food (weight before and after it's cooked), but their team resolved it asap. The service is great, the brother sister front desk is amazing, the family cooking the food is phenomenal and working with Kari was seamless. I told the family i'd take them there for dinner soon. This is our go to spot for tacos now. read more

I love this place as much as their carne asada! Authentic as they come. Shoutout to Kerri and Luis. You guys treat me like actual family here. Warm atmosphere and great customer service every time I walk in! If you're interested in finding the highest quality Mexican food around, look no further! Everything Ive had on their menu is a hit. Make sure you try their torta and burrito options and their fresh chips are a must! read more

Best Mexican restaurant in Tustin. Beyond happy I gave this restaurant a 2nd chance after finding out (on Yelp) that they are under new management. There's a reason why every single review in the last 12 months (since new management has taken over) has remained at a consistent 5 stars. The food is 12/10! Real flavor much like homemade Mexican food. Their Molé Platillo was the best mole I've ever had at any Mexican restaurant. I love this new and improved El Buen Sabor :-) Luis is very welcoming and the sweetest host and server. read more

Very good service and food ! Ordered the veggie burrito and a couple veggie tacos ( vegetarians here) . Both were excellent. Will definitely return. read more

My wife and I found El Buen Sabor while driving home and it was a pleasant surprise. The restaurant was clean and the service was excellent. We ordered a combo plate consisting of two fish tacos and rice and beans. I also ordered their aqua fresca pepino limonada. Our order came with chips and four homemade salsas. The fish tacos, rice and beans were delicious! read more

I would say this place is really good especially being a mom and pop shop. The food tastes really fresh because they make your food on the spot. Which is even better. The service is really friendly, I met the dad and son who were really nice and asking me about the food. If they need to change anything and I said no. I had the Chicharrón nachos which were the bomb. I would recommend this place to anyone that what's a homemade meal. I will be coming back for sure. read more

Authentic great Mexican food. Great customer service. Reasonable prices. Hands down the best chips and salsa in Orange County.

This place is a true example of that home cooked meal found at your local restaurant. First off, its half restaurant, half bakery, and it located in the same plaza as Stater Bro's and Pho Bac Ky, across the 7-11. In the corner lies this Mexican restaurant/bakery., filled with 4 small tables, a kitchen, counter, cabinets full of fresh-baked treats, a small fridge with their tres leches cake and other cakes, and non-working videos games.... it already spells disaster.... for most folks, but for someone who prefers your food to ambiance, this looks promising. Lot's of yoru standard tortas, dishes, and specials like any other place, but it has that great Sunday treat.... the kind you only remember having Mexican friends (for a filipino like me) and having lola's Fresh Menudo. O-M.G, only "mamacita" could make it that great, but this place comes very close. The people here are really friendly, and I would assume the owners. The chef came out and talked to us personally, like we were family, and even made a salsa for us (per request) that was really hot, because well... we like hot things. A few habanero's.. and we've got a contender! Anyway, the food is great, the people are great, and the desserts are all pretty good. So while nothing fancy, it does with a place in my heart for some of the best Menudo i've had in the OC. read more
