This place has been on my list for way too long. Every time I remember about this place it's on a Sunday lol ( it's closed on Sundays lol) My birthday fell on a Tuesday and my sister wanted to take me somewhere I haven't been. So I was quick to pick this place. I have never had a puffy taco in my life. After having these tacos, I want my tacos like this alllll the time lol. It amazed me how fluffy and lightly crispy they were but sturdy to hold all the stuff...perfection. I am very picky and judgy when it comes to rice and beans... and they passed with flying colors. Everything was sooooo good. The carnitas tacos were ok , I don't know what kind of oil is used but it gave a different taste that I'm not used to when eating carnitas. But the asada in the puffy tacos was sooo tasty. The inside was cute and clean. My only thing that kept crossing my mind as I was eating.... It was so quiet that I can hear other ppl eating. They had a tv on the cooking channel but no volume. Studies have shown that when there's music being played ( doesn't need to be blasting) make your food experience better. Maybe put some 80's or even Mexican music on . Or use the tv to put on a music video station. Just food for thought. I will definitely be back, just not on Sunday lol read more

What a quaint and special shop! I've never had anything like their puffy taco, and it was really good! I got the Al Pastor with everything on it, and man, there's something about the airy crisp of the taco shell that just itches a nice spot between a soft street taco, and crunchy hard shell taco. The cashier was super nice, and you could tell there are regulars just based on the conversations and the repoire he had with others. I think my only quip is that the taco is a bit expensive, so maybe better as a snack. And they only have two salsas that they hand out. I love a salsa bar, so that's more on me. But they have a pretty solid red and green salsa. read more

Food: 5/5｜Service: 5/5 I have lived down the street from Fat Burrito for almost 2 years now, and I do not know how I had not tried it until now. This was also my first time having a puffy taco. Here is what I ordered. Puffy Taco with Al Pastor The tortilla...I have never had anything like this before. It was airy, crispy, and not oily. It added such a great texture to the whole dish. Despite how basic this taco was, it was nothing short of amazing. The al pastor had a nice char and was very flavorful, topped with onion, cilantro, and cheese. It was perfect. I also appreciated how easy it was to eat. Everything fit in one bite, and nothing fell out. Street Taco with Carne Asada You already know what I am going to say here. It was simply good. The carne asada was just as well cooked and flavorful as the al pastor. You can enjoy these tacos in many different ways, both plain and with the green and red sauces. Now let me talk about the sauces. The green sauce was smoky, tangy, and aromatic, with a great consistency. I do not like it when salsa verde is too watery, and I really liked that this one was not over blended. You can actually see bits and pieces of the ingredients, which made the flavor more punchy. As for the red sauce, it had a good level of heat and was very aromatic. Just like the green sauce, the consistency was great. If you are looking to add a kick to your meal, definitely add the red sauce. Lastly, Damien was one of the nicest people I have ever met in the service industry. From time to time, he was working the front alone despite how busy it was. I honestly do not know how he maintained such a positive attitude. So if you visit Fat Burrito and, for whatever reason, feel frustrated, please be kind to Damien. He is definitely doing his best. read more

Visited this location for the first time on Thursday, and we were immediately greeted upon arrival. We ordered two asada fat burritos, one regular asada burrito, and asada nachos. The fat burritos are a bit on the pricey side, but they are definitely worth it! The meat was well-seasoned, and we will definitely be coming back to try other items on the menu. This is a nice place to meet a friend to catch up. read more

I stopped by Fat Burrito in Rancho Cucamonga and ended up having a really enjoyable meal from start to finish. I tried the puffy tacos and they were excellent, crispy, flavorful, and clearly made fresh. Everything tasted well prepared and satisfying without feeling heavy in a bad way. The restaurant itself was spotless, which always makes a good first impression, and the service was incredibly friendly throughout my visit. It's a little on the pricey side, which they actually acknowledge on the menu, but given the quality and overall experience it felt understandable. I left full, happy, and already thinking about coming back to try more of the menu. read more

The young man at the register was courteous and professional when taking my order. He left and a very rude woman took his place going so far as to intimidate customers into tipping. Had she been at the register when I came, I would have gone elsewhere. The food was cooked perfectly and it was delicious. The place is clean, quiet. read more

This was great Mexican food for Rancho Cucamonga. Too often have I been disappointed by the Mexican food in the IE but this was pretty gas. The burrito is sizable and filling. Puffy taco is delicious but kind of expensive. Probably the only Mexican spot I'll go to here, respectfully. read more

Came for their weekday puffy taco deal for takeout. The workers were all very nice and patient, explaining the menu and deals happening. The puffy taco definitely needs to be eaten right away or it will not be as crispy! The crispy outer layer complimented well with the meat and cheese. It looks small but it was filling! The deal came with the side of rice and beans as well. We will be back to try other things on the menu. read more

Located in a small strip mall, this place is easy to get to with lots of parking in the front. It's small but has a cute and homey feel. The person behind the walk up counter was very friendly. He happily answered questions about their menu. Ordering food was easy. There's a small amount of seating inside. They graciously changed the channel to the Dodger game upon our request. Ive never had a puffy taco before and these were so good! The masa is fried and super fresh tasting. The carne asada was very flavorful. This place has daily specials. I am looking forward to coming back and trying something new from the menu. read more

Fat Burrito - This is how delicious it was. - Mexican Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

Food: 4/5｜Service: 5/5｜Atmosphere: 4/5 The beef here is genuinely excellent -- especially the steak pieces, which are tender, juicy, and generously portioned. They're also very generous with the sides, which makes the meal feel hearty and satisfying. The only downside is the taco shells, which were a bit too dry this time. The large burrito is an incredible value -- almost two pounds, packed with shredded beef, avocado, rice, and beans. One burrito can easily feed three to four people. We've always loved their shredded beef, but recently it has become noticeably saltier than before. As longtime customers, we really hope they adjust the recipe back to its original balance, because during our last three visits it's consistently been too salty. On the positive side, the green salsa is amazing, and their cheese nachos and puffy tacos are absolute must-tries -- super flavorful and satisfying. The seating area is comfortable and spacious, making it a great spot to hang out with friends, share food, and enjoy a few drinks together. Overall, still a solid place with great value, but we'd really love to see the saltiness improved so we can go back more often like before. read more

Some of the best meat I've tried so far, the carne asada is very tasty and tender as well as the chicken. The puffy tacos were okay not so amazing, I thought it gave a chilis vibe but the actually tortilla but it didn't really taste like anything but I would definitely go back just for the rice, beans, and carne asada an regular tacos! The man up front was very nice and helpful. The place was very clean and chill. Definitely a place worth checking out read more

The place was a little dark with half the lights turned off on a Friday evening but we took a chance and they were open. We always love getting puffy tacos here. Always consistently good puffy tacos and good friendly service here, just hate that they charge $1 to use a credit card but I understand in this economy. With great tasting tacos and service we will continue to come back again and again read more

I can tell this place is going to be a problem. I just recently tried Fat Burrito and had to come back again the following week because I couldn't stop thinking about & raving about the tacos! These are some of the best tacos I've had in a long time. I got 2 puffy tacos & 2 street tacos in both in carne asada & al pastor. I added guac to my street tacos which made them even better! My husband almost always orders a burrito everywhere we go and he ordered the Burrito bowl twice now and loves it! The staff is amazing and super helpful when we were there the first time. I already can't wait to go back! 10/10 Highly Recommended! read more

I recommend their "puffy taco" made fresh off the grill. The puffy taco offers an interesting texture of soft chewy masa like, to a subtle crunch at the end. The uniqueness in taste & flavor makes it worth trying. read more

Just flew into Ontario airport and thought we try out a local burrito eatery . Super clean place in a shopping center ..... very easy to find . Ordered the bean rice and cheese burrito . Credit cards are $1 more so bring cash if you can. Tortilla soft and pillowy and the beans cheese and rice smooth and not salty . Good size for one but we split between 2 people . Nice people .....I'm coming on back my next trip to Ontario / Rancho Cucamonga . read more

Hadn't been here in a while and my boss told me to treat myself to some tacos for Taco Tuesday! Yay! They do have a Taco Tuesday special, but I hadn't had their puffy tacos in a while and wanted to get some of those along with their traditional street tacos. I opted for al pastor and chicken for each. I do think I may have received one beef taco instead, but it was still very good. The puffy tacos are so delicious and such a fun take on a classic. They're a little greasy, but honestly, so worth it! Their place is small and quaint with a mom-and-pop vibe. It wasn't very busy when I visited. The gentleman that helped me was super friendly and engaging. I was a little disappointed in the salsa verde as it didn't have much flavor. I really enjoyed their spicy salsa. Starting in 2025, they'll be open on Mondays and closed on Sundays. read more

FIVE STARS!!! This place is a hidden gem and hands down one of the best taco spots in the Inland Empire. We've tried the Fat Burrito and the Puffy Taco -- both are great, but the Puffy Taco steals the show. It's so crispy, flavorful, and just hits the spot every time. I always get it with al pastor (HIGHLY recommend), and my boyfriend loves it with carnitas. We seriously come here almost every Monday -- that's how good it is. And don't even get me started on the horchata... it's BOMB AS F*!!!** So creamy, sweet, and refreshing. The vibe inside is super cozy -- always clean, and the natural sunlight that comes through the windows makes it feel so warm and welcoming. It's just a really chill and comforting place to eat. The staff is amazing too. Damien has helped us a few times and he's always so friendly and kind. Everyone else we've met there has also been great -- super welcoming and helpful. This spot is a 10/10. If you haven't been yet -- go now! You will NOT be disappointed. Puffy taco with al pastor. Trust me. read more

Horrible prices. 16 dollars for a small burrito that contradicts their name and is 90% tortilla. On top of that they ask you to tip and blame it on inflation for their outrageous cost. Go anywhere else and get more bang for your buck. read more
