El Cardenal Taqueria catered our wedding reception, and it was a huge hit! Chaz is so easy to work with and answered all of our questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. On the day of our event, the food was fast and delicious and we were so impressed with the service of every staff member. We still get compliments on the food after our wedding, and the food truck was so fun and unique! Can't recommend enough!

Very wonderful quick lunch option! It is set up in the same way that Chipotle is, so you start with…read moreyour base (burrito, bowl, taco salad) and then add on all your toppings. When I arrived there wasn't a line, so we were able to get our food quite quickly. The restaurant itself is pretty bare-bones, so definitely more appropriate for a quick lunch rather than a night out. I went with the burrito bowl and chose the al pastor, arroz rojo, various salsas, sour cream, and guacamole. I love that they have different rice options. They al pastor was wonderful! I think that they could work on adding a bit more acidity to a few of their components, because without a bit of acid the flavors do start to blend together a bit too much. The serving is plentiful and very comparable to Chipotle (I was able to save some for leftovers). I think this is a great alternative to Chipotle and an opportunity to support local business. They also have tamales which were tasty! To note, they primarily have smaller two-person tables that can uncomfortably fit three people. If you are bringing a large group, you'll have to push tables together.

Finding a great Mexican restaurant is beyond difficult for me so I often make my own at home. I still try my best to find a place. It's a Saturday afternoon and the place is empty. That does. It always indicate if the place is good or bad. A few people came in after we ordered, a good sign. The service was very quick though most important pleasant. We ordered a veggie and a carne aada burrito. Unfortunately the burritos were cold. Could be the sour cream. The burritos had flavor though I am disappointed they were not hot. I'm happy I had medium salsa there was not as much flavor as I am use to. Yes, I have had better burritos but for the area these are much better than the most. The tables could be wiped down more. It's not pleasant walking past dirty tables looking for clean one. Will I give this place another try? Maybe
