    Spacious inside

    Pass this location so many times that we finally decided to stop in when we realized our typical taco joint was closed. So happy that we're so close to many good taco places! My husband got the chilaquiles which he's always happy to find when places have them. It was pretty filling and reasonably priced. I got the quesabirria which was okay. The churro was okay too. Hard to be great with these when there is a lot of competition in the DFW area. Location was very clean and spacious. Service was friendly. Look forward to going back again to try something else!

    Size of the burritos, they are huge... hefty fellas, lol.

    I'd give it a 3.5 if possible, but not a 4. That being said, I'll still probably come back again to give them another try & will update my rating if needed. Service 4/5: The staff was really nice, pretty easy going. But it seemed that they forgot one of my friend's food. Two of us had received our order, we still had her number on the table & then after awhile we were asked if there was anything else we were waiting on. It came out quickly afterwards. Maybe just a miscommunication amongst staff, but like I said. They were super nice. Food 3/5: Kinda hit & miss. Breakfast burrito, super greasy but really bland. The hot sauce made it much better. Carne asada plate & tacos, delicious. Birria Ramen, this was also pretty bland... the noodle were great but it was missing some overall flavor. I do wish we could sub some sides, even for an uncharge. I would have rather had chips & cheese than fries, but it wasn't allowed so I didn't order a torta like I originally wanted. But the girl was super apologetic about it, rules are rules, I appreciate how nice she was about it. Prices are pretty good & the servings are huge. Atmosphere 4/5: It's chilly in there, which I like, definitely wear we need in Texas. Booths are spacious, good for groups & they have large tables put together as well. The restroom needs better plumbing, there was a warning about it so I hope it improves. Love the murals, chill atmosphere. Maybe this place was overhyped but has potential, so I'll be looking try another menu item next time. Maybe it was an odd day.

    Friendly staff who comes around and checks on you and your satisfaction. Food is delicious!! We got 3 tacos: tripas extra crunchy, carnitas, and carne asada. We also got a carne asada torta. Everything was fresh and hot! Definitely recommend! $2 tacos tuesday with $3 margaritas too!

    Being from San Diego this was just like home. I honestly never knew about this place until I came here and saw their menu. Was just like a San Diego taco shop. I brought my buddies here and we all loved it. I started things out with their hot Chito Carne Asada fries, which were amazing my buddy got Birria tacos. He loved them. My other buddy got a shrimp quesadilla and he fell in love with it. We also got rolled tacos and Carne Asada tacos, which we shared, and Man felt like we were in San Diego again. They have tons of drinks lots of seating inside the restaurant was clean, which is always a plus and the service was good. Definitely coming back here.

    Nachos Supreme with asada
    Denise G.

    First Id like to mention that the establishment is very clean. We do love a clean environment. Everyone was nice for the most part. We came here based off a FB group recommendation. Let's get straight to it. The amount of food they give you is very much worth the price. However the food is not great. There is no taste. You look at the food and the amount given and get excited until you bite in. I'm gonna have to agree with the people who say there's no seasoning in some of these reviews. Those are the accurate ones. My son ordered tacos, he requested them to be like the queso birria tacos but with asada instead. If that wasn't possible just say that and we can order something else. Instead they basically threw something together and gave him tacos with yellow packaged shredded cheese. So like El Finex type of thing. If you like watered down Tex Mex this is your spot. Personally we enjoy comida mexicana. Not to mention the tortilla was just dry and hard. So disappointing. My husband and i ordered a burrito with cabeza. Again no taste. We also ordered the nachos supreme with asada and the meat was dry, no taste. The chips were nice and crunchy and toppings did their thing. Same with the tacos de asada we ordered. We like to try new places and order several items to get a great review. None of these items were made with any type of seasoning and not to mention the asada did seem old. My son is back of the house and said the same about the meat. Also, they sent us away with no salsa! We like salsa with our tacos and burritos. We came from DeSoto so it's quite a drive. Good thing we noticed and turned back. Someone in these reviews said the salsa is homemade? The salsa was packaged. Maybe they offer homemade when you dine in? So sad. I hate leaving these type of reviews but I just want to be honest. Maybe it was the cook? I don't know. The 2 stars are for the amount of food for the price and the clean environment. Restrooms were very clean as well! So much potential but no flavor to back the food up.

    Well, I took a picture of my drink because my order was completely messed up. (Ordered on door dash) When I called them, I was sooooo annoyed but by the end of the call - I was fine. I spoke to Jose and he was so sweet and empathetic, maybe the owner? Maybe the manager? I'm not sure but he's great. Needless to say, I hope they succeed in all their locations, due to customer service alone!! I'll try again next week for my hot Cheeto fries

    Thank you!

    Quite literally just got home with my order... ordered 2 Arlington burritos for my husband and son.... So good!!! But this post is aimed more towards the customer service. I wish I would've got her name, but the young girl who was working at the drive-through was the absolute sweetest! Her customer service is A1. She asked me how I was and we started chitchatting for a bit and told her I was starting a new job And the whole experience was great. I got home opened up my order to give to my family and saw this and it brought me to tears. I showed my husband and he was shocked as well. I feel so horrible for not catching her name, but for the young girl who was working the drive-thru THANK YOU! you made my day! You have such a beautiful positive energy about you! Never lose it!

    Two asada one fish

    Thank goodness for Yelp friends or I would have never known this was here.as I tend to avoid Copper all together. Gilbertos 2 is not on Cooper, it is just east of it, behind the pharmacy. New location, beautiful mural, same quality tacos you expect from Gilbertos. This location also is easier to get in and out of, as they have a good amount of parking. And don't forget the drive thru! I stopped by and got the asada and fish tacos. I had not tried their fish before and I had been missing OUT. SO good! Next time though, I would ask to leave off the sour cream. It is hiding under all the veg and isn't my favorite. The fish is perfectly cooked, and so flavorful. The asada is a bit on the greasy side, but so tasty. I am a salsa verde fan and they have two! This place being so close to my work could get dangerous, but I am here for it.

    Menu and the women that took our orders. Thank y'all for the excellent service and professionalism and patience.

    Food is overpriced and bland. Tostada was so soggy it was almost impossible to eat even with a fork.

    Moved to Arlington in the last year, and I'm so grateful family members told me this restaurant was…read morehere! They're always so clean, the music isn't too loud and the whole place smells delicious. I was able to order 6lbs of Pollo and 8lbs Bistek on a Thursday after 5pm, for a party on Saturday 1pm. It's so worth the time and it came out very savory and fresh. This place is amazing for takeout or dine in; just be aware that they're rightfully busy! Please have patience with the staff, they're so kind and helpful all the time.

    Found this place on yelp. They had high reviews so I decided to give it a try. Everything was okay…read more Nothing really stood out. The salsa was tasty and spicy. The tacos weren't overly greasy. I got the 5 taco plate with beans and rice it was 15.99 but with tax and tip it came closer to $20 (no drink included). The two meats I got were barbacoa and bistec. The texture of the bistec was chopped very finely (I'm use to bigger pieces). Both meats were soft and "juicy" (I felt like they were watery) they didn't hold much flavor. The tortillas were fairly good. The space is really big and clean, the employees were very nice. I wish I would've liked the tacos more but they just weren't for me! However, they might be for you, so I would still stop by and give them a try! Maybe you will have better luck or pick a better item on the menu! They did have a lot to choose from.
