Taco Tuesday & Friday Specials
William B.

The only spot I go to for some crispy or crunchy chicken tacos. The vibes are always cool there. The restaurant is always clean and chill as far as noise level. The tacos are always made fresh to go. The service is usually quick being that I pull when there's not a lot of customers. I used to waiting about 5-10 mins while I post up outside and get some fresh air or let my dog run around at the park across the street. The service was great. The employees were welcoming, professional and friendly. No problems with placing my order for 5 chicken tacos. Came out to $12 and something including the tax. It's been a while but it seems as if they may have cut down on the portion size of shredded chicken inside the tacos. They were still good tho. Especially with that avocado sauce or salsa.

Food was pretty good They have so much on their menu! Definitely gotta go back to try more food off their menu! They also serve smoothies too!!

3 item combo plate- crispy fish taxi, Mexican taco with chicken  and crispy shredded beef taco
Joseph C.

Overall food ranges from ok to good. Mexican taco with chicken was excellent but crispy shredded beef taco and fried fish taco were just average at best. But the price was very reasonable

Green enchilada plate
Estela G.

It's a good quick place to get something to eat. We were going somewhere else but there was no seating and was happy we found this place. It's clean, quick, good and has plenty of seating inside. It also has a drive through. I appreciate that they have a vegan food on the menu and make their rice & beans vegan. The Aguas are also good, we got half Jamaica and half cucumber and it was sooo good. We ordered: Aguas, chips & Guac, green enchiladas and the 2 item Combo with a taco dorado de desehbrada and a soft Mexican taco.

Carne asada burrito with old rice
Angel R.

Visited on a Friday night at around 9:30 pm ordered a carne asada burrito and a corn on a stick. The service was really fast which I thought was pretty strange. Once getting to enjoy the burrito at home it wasn't what I was expecting. The rice inside the burrito was really dry the beans didn't even taste any. The meat was okay not the best the salsa tasted the same as king taco salsa. The burrito was also small and skinny not satisfying at all. The only good in my order was the corn on the Cobb which was tender and juicy. Oh and the chips were also good really fresh. I went through drive thru so didn't see what it felt like inside the restaurant. I really didn't care for it so just keep that in mind.

Fish Taco Del Mar, so sad.
Melissa C.

Solid place always good service and affordable/ love it here. Always happy to show up here and get solid fast Mexican on the go

Crispy Taco
Dylan V.

El Torazo is a local favorite. This visit I got the Crispy Tacos-chicken, Chips & Salsa and an El Mexicano Burrito- Asada. The food was tasty, I enjoy the contrast in salsas; the red being smoky, spicy and complex. Mix that with the tangy, creamy green salsa and it elevates the flavor profile of tacos and in this occasion a simple bag of tortillas chips. Thanks again El Torazo for quenching my hunger!

California Burrito

Idk what happened today but if you usually go to torazo yk they have really stuffed burritos idk who was cooking today 5/9 they're usually so good with their food prep. I came here to get a burrito after a long shift to get this sad looking burrito. Chipotle once gave me a burrito just like this where it had almost no meat and just a bunch of rice and charged me almost $20 for a rice burrito. I stopped going and loved Torazo burritos because they have never failed to make a good stuffed burrito until today. Update 5/14 I went again to give them another chance and look at the difference in size much better.

I love this place! Great value! Great taste!! They have a Taco Tuesday. The staff is friendly and service is quick. It's close jso I go frequently. They sometimes decorate for various holidays, which makes it fun.. you can either do street parking or in the lot. Definitely try if you haven't been before.

Taco Del Mar Shrimp  Fresh-Made Cucumber Lemonade
Anita G.

This spot was recommended by a friend in the area, and it's definitely a solid local go-to, especially for late-night cravings since they're open until midnight (and sometimes later, according to Google). I've tried a variety of tacos here, including the Taco Del Mar (fish: both fried and grilled, and shrimp), Surf and Turf, Barbacoa, and Carnitas. My favorites are definitely the Shrimp and Barbacoa. The Carnitas were pretty dry, and I'm picky about Asada, it lacked flavor for me. They serve a cucumber lime water that's a must-try. It's super refreshing and perfectly balanced and not too sweet. The drive-thru is a major plusreally convenient and usually quick. When dining in, the staff has always been polite and attentive. They bring you squeeze bottles of red and green salsa, both of which are delicious.

Chingona fries and Hot Cheetos Barbacoa burrito
Alexandria D.

We had passed this location before without realizing it was there. We are so glad to have discovered this place. We got the chingona fries, that have asada, pastor, chicken, and shrimp as well as the hot Cheetos Barbacoa burrito. Both of the dishes were really delicious, flavorful, and prepared quickly. Service was friendly, atmosphere was welcoming. Has a good salsa bar inside! Overall we enjoyed the food and will be back soon.

I only waited a few minutes after. I received my food. It was well packaged. They offered me some salsa. I took the red, green and the bag with some lemons and cucumber. I ordered a vampiro with carne asada and al pastor(con todo), chicken taco, birria taco ( con todo) I'm going to start with my favorite, to my least favorite. Vampiro: visually it looked very appetizing. I was excited to try it. The looks were not deceiving! It was flavorful crunchy. It made me happy when I bit into it. My only Takeaway would be that it was a bit greasy. Aside from that, I loved it! Chicken taco: this one surprised me. When I bit into it, it had a nice smoky flavor in the meat. Very tasty! With a dash of the red and green salsa with a lemon squeeze! it really elevated it more. My only Takeaway would be a little dash of some salt overall I enjoyed this taco and it was delicious. Birria taco: this one made me sad. It was my least favorite and I love Birria. It lacked flavor the meat was chewy even with the salsa and lemon, I hated it. Super greasy although it looked beautiful it was not it. I wish I could have scored it better. I spent $14.80 I think this included the tip.

Great tacos, especially on Taco Tuesday when they're only $2.27!!! I'd say these are some of the…read morebest tacos I've had in the area. The ambiance is your run-of-the-mill taco shop. Nothing fancy, but it's pretty spacious and clean. I ordered three different kinds of tacos -- asada, al pastor, and birria. Most places charge extra for birria, but the price is the same and included in the Taco Tuesday special! The tortillas are homemade and delicious. The meat was all flavorful and tender. There were a few bits of fat in the meat that I spit out, but overall it was pretty good. The guacamole sauce is really good, and they're very generous with it. I enjoyed their green salsa as well. Be careful of the orange/red habernero salsa -- it has a kick that creeps up on you! The line can get fairly long and they do a good amount of take-out. However, the line moves pretty fast, and they assemble the tacos to order. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other menu items and the agua fresca!

Saw this place on Instagram... Instantly intrigued…read more.. Bit of a drive for me, but oh my goodness , The Flautas Ahogadas were worth it. A truly magical dish. Every element of this lavishly sauced delicacy is perfection! The tortilla was crisp and well fried, The beef and potato filling was tender and well seasoned The birria consommé has a ghostly hint of oregano that disappears without lingering, The sauces decorating the outside of the flautas are balanced, The cheese is salty and rich and accents the flavor profile to completion. My Jamaica was crisp and fresh, and complimented my meal. A fantastic find that I would recommend to anyone. I drove 40 minutes to try this dish and I would drive 80 minutes to eat it again! This dish lived up to the hype in every possible way! Don't miss your chance, Get your Flautas Ahogadas ASAP

I'm beyond frustrated with my experience ordering online here. I placed my order and was told it…read morewould be ready in 30 minutes. When I arrived, the gentleman at the front told me it would be another 7 minutes -- fine, no problem. I waited another 10 minutes, only for him to finally ask what I ordered and then tell me they only had beef available. At that point I was annoyed because why wasn't that communicated when I first walked in? Either the online ordering system isn't accurate or the staff doesn't know how to use it properly. What really made it worse was that from the time I placed my order to actually receiving my food, it took an entire hour. Meanwhile, I watched multiple people walk in, order in person, and get their food within 10 minutes. Offering me an agua fresca doesn't make up for wasting that much of someone's time. Communication and organization need serious improvement.

It was good, but I was thinking that this might be the best ever. It wasn't that. Just as good as any taco truck.

Would def get this more often if it was closer. They had seats under a tent to eat and street parking in the neighborhood.
