I can't really fault the food. The burrito was really awesome. We opted for the surf and turf with ribeye and it was absolutely delicious. I really love how they don't use rice in the burrito, so it was basically protein with cheese and sauce. I really appreciate the sauce bar as well. There were so many difference sauces, onions, lime, and cilantro to flavor your tacos and burritos. The service was quick service and the food came out really quick. There was seating both inside and outside, though I know on peak times, you probably should take the food to go since the place can get pretty packed. However, it was pretty clean inside. Can't wait to be back
Returned to this resturant for lunch to celebrate a coworkers birthday. Not only was the service very quick, but the food was made to order and delicious. I would say the pricing is very fair especially that their Carne Asada is very good quality and they do not charge extra to order it. It's considered part of their base meat menu. The burrito was very filling and delicious. I still feel as if the rice could be a little better, but that is my only complaint. The place is really unique and a great vibe to come for a meal in general. I highly recommend then at least once. They also offer a much higher quality menu if you are interested in more expensive meats. They offer both the allure or fast causal dinning, a mom and pop atmosphere, and fine dinning assortments.
Small restaurant, located in a small strip mall, that has big taste! Limited seating is available, but this is to promote quick take away service, and service is quick. Even when it's busy. I ordered the OG Bowl with Arrachera. The meat was incredibly tender and savory, topped with onions, cilantro and guacamole, and resting on a bed of rice, beans and cheese. The bowl was a generous size, but there was plenty of room for any extras you wanted to add from their fresh salsa bar, which offered three different spice levels of hot sauce. Hecho is a wonderful "taco shop" that provides excellent food and quality ingredients. These hearty meals are a perfect way to end a busy day.
This is meat done perfectly! This is what happens when every single detail is thought of and then executed! I haven't tried the entire menu but what I have tried is Excellent! Charcoal grilled meat with modest seasonings. Great guacamole. Generous portions. First I got the most expensive burrito I have ever bought - the surf and turf as it came. The addition of the Anaheim chili is delicious. The perfectly cooked fresh butter shrimp are absolutely divine. I got it with filet steak and I finished the entire thing. Then I came back for ribeye steak tacos and pork belly tacos. The ribeye is perfect. The pork belly wasn't anywhere near as good. I would eat that ribeye every single day. The guacamole is amazing too. I slathered on everything. Also they fill the tacos with a lot of meat! They have like 6 salsas and they are all delicious! The creamy sauce with the cucumber slices is really tasty! You add as much cilantro and onion as you want from the salsa bar. I also got the sapote agua Fresca and it was suburb! Yes this is expensive but it is so worth it! I went on a Friday night and the line was out the door and it was worth every minute and every dollar! The staff is extremely nice and filled and cleaned the salsa bar often. Also if you have room for ice cream afterwards you can go next door to the neighboring shop and get 10% off at ColdStone.
Got here right when they opened so that we wouldn't be in too long of a line. Got a table inside and the food didn't take too long to come out. I ordered the fully loaded potato with arrachera & shrimp, my husband ordered the potato with arrachera, my daughter ordered an asada burrito & my son got his usual bean and cheese burrito. Kids got horchatas & we got coke to go with the meal. Everything is INCREDIBLE! Worth the drive, will be back again. You can tell it fills up fast but we can see why.
Ambience is pretty chill and casual. Service was fast. I have gone twice with friends and another time with my husband. The tortillas for the tacos and salsa could use some improvement. The tortillas are too thick, filling and they fall apart. The salsas didn't have a good taste nor spicy, pretty bland actually but the meat was delicious and well seasoned.
Love the Smokey smell permeating throughout the restaurant. Makes you even hungrier. The staff are super nice. Happy that the salsa bar has fresh cucumbers!
Great costumer services . Food it's amazing I love this places I always get the costilla burrito , my kids love ribeye tacos with cheese , and there salsa bars it's a plus !!
It's been a while since I've found a taco spot that has not just one or two good meats, but all the meats that Hecho Al Carbon made were delicious, flavorful, and distinct! I went in for dinner so there was already a line out the door but, surprisingly, it moved fairly quickly and we were able to snag a table just as another group was leaving. [ ORDERING ] Ordering was easy, simply walk up to the counter, peruse their digital menu board, and order there. The cashier will then give you a number. Take your number with you and find a table to sit in. Once your entire order is ready, they will bring the food to your table and collect your number. With the menu font being so small, I would suggest to the owners possibly making the font larger and having the menu display switch out every few slides so that people in the back of the line can view the menu -or- when business has picked up, buy additional TV monitors to have the menu displayed near the back so people entering will have an idea of what they want to order. The latter would make for quicker transactions at the counter. [ FOOD & DRINKS ] As I mentioned in my intro, the meats were delicious and they all had a different flavor, which I appreciated. In order to get a good idea of their food, we ordered a little of everything: * Surf & Turf Burrito with Arrachera - The Arrachera (skirt steak) was paired with juicy shrimp wrapped in a burrito. There was no need for additional sauce. * La Papota (Baked Papota) with Adobada - The marinated pork (Adobada) meat was more seasoned than the Arrachera. It had some coloring to it as it came out red but it was very bold in flavor. Just delicious. This was shared between our group and had to take most of it home. It's very heavy and easily shareable. We topped it with cilantro, onions, salsa, and guacamole (separate order). What a great value! * Guacamole and Chips: The guac here was more of a paste made to top tacos. It was still good but it's not the usual chunky style guac that I'm used to. Still great though! * Arrachera Taco - The meat was chunky and really tender. No hard pieces at all. It was delicious and it wasn't over salted. I topped it with the guac and salsa, cilantro and onions and lime juice. So good! * Chicken Tacos with Cheese (extra) - While the cheese cost extra, it enhanced this taco like a mini quesadilla. It would even be fine without the extra taco. The chicken was good. It wasn't dry either. It had a good grilled flavor to it. * Refried Beans - I'm picky with refried beans and these were really delicious. Great consistency and it wasn't dry. It had good color to it too. It is really creamy. * Cucumber Lime (Pepino con Limón) Agua Fresca - I enjoyed the chunks of cucumber and this was very citrusy. I liked that it wasn't sweet like others make them. Definitely a great cup of limeade! [ ATMOSPHERE ] The atmosphere is casual but lively. There's music playing in the background but you can still hear people within your table. Looking around, everyone seemed to be enjoying their food and company. [ SERVICE ] Our orders came out pretty quick and the gentleman who brought out our food was really nice. The cashier was friendly. And the workers were quick to clean up tables. [ LOCATION ] They are located near the Walmart and WaBa Grill on Canyon Springs Parkway, just west of Day Street in Riverside - borders Moreno Valley. Overall, this is a solid taco shop with quality meats and delicious eats! Great food, worth the wait, and decent prices, and good workers!
Fire !! The meat taste like Al carbon love it recommend the vampiros!! Love the flavor the tortillas taste de maíz authentic to Baja ca style!
We saw an Instagram video asking if this was the best taco spot in the IE, so of course we had to check it out. We happened to be nearby on a Friday and decided to stop in. It was relatively busy, as expected, but nothing too crazy. The restaurant gave us Tacos Los Cholos vibes (if you're familiar with the OC spot), with similar meat options and a laid-back, welcoming ambiance. The main difference was the wait time. Our food was ready within 10 to 20 minutes, which was a nice surprise. We tried the asada, arrachera, and adobada tacos, plus a few tacos with cheese (highly recommend the arrachera and cheese combo), and a surf and turf burrito. Everything was delicious, but the adobada tacos stood out as my personal favorite. We even placed a second order to go with more ribeye and arrachera tacos, plus some fresas con crema. As for the cost, it's comparable to fast-casual spots, and pricing really depends on what you order. We spent around $70 to feed four people, including drinks, and our second round of tacos was about $30. All in all, totally worth it. We will definitely be back and highly recommend giving it a try!
We tried this place based on looking at what was around us after doing some shopping. My friend looked it up and saw that it was pretty popular and we checked it out. We had a meal here two days in a row. On day one I had the Al Pastor burrito with a chorizo taco and a Carne Asada taco with a drink which was roughly $22. Service was good and fast. There was plenty of seating and great music playing. They have a fresh salsa bar with plenty of different condiments for your liking. I really enjoyed the cream based chipotle sauce. On the second day when we felt a hankering for good Mexican food again and went back and got the loaded potato filled with butter cheese and Carne Asada. I also attempted another Al Pastor burrito again and was overwhelmed with how much food we got. This time I also got the grilled onions and chilies with it. If you live near this place, you need to check it out. Hands-down one of the best places I've eaten at in Moreno Valley.

I had heard this was a TLC vibe (iykyk) it def is with the choices of meats etc. But I am a fan of there and now I have an option by home. We had the surf and turf and a classic asada The meat was lean and the shrimp was plump. I liked the beans and rice ratio also on the asada burrito, not too much where any one overpowered the other The salsa bar is also same vibe-all salsas available and chipotle sauce and also cucumbers which I love with my meal I didn't know the roasted chilis were on the side menu-I was expecting them at the salsa bar but they are available Service is walk up and they were friendly and helpful with questions etc They brought the food right out too-almost no wait and they were fairly busy when we went. I really enjoyed Hecho Def a new go to read more

The place is very nicely decorated but it's small considering how busy it is. Plenty of parking outside which was awesome. The food is good and I have so many more items to try. Unfortunately I'm not a fan of their sign offering a free can of coke for a 5-star review... As for the food, we loved the adobada and tripa meats. The panela (cheese) is a hard pass for next time. Pork belly was decent, but I was really disappointed with their carne asada. It's like they made it tougher than normal so you would want to buy the premium arrachera (which was good too). We got all those in tacos but I did try the Vampiro but the asada meat made it not as good as I know it could be. The side beans were also great and my baby loved it. We took the OG nachos with adobada home and that was a mistake so if you get that, eat it there. For me, it didn't have enough cheese but still got soggy on our drive home. Next time we will definitely get adobada and tripa as well as arrachera but gonna want to try their other meats including the fancy ones and be the mushroom. Oh and the side beans. As for the sauces, we liked the bright green & orange sauces. Not sure what they are but they were delicious. We will need back. Looks like we have another good taco spot. read more

I brought my parents here on a Sunday and it was packed like line out the door packed. We ordered the carne asada, chorizo, and al pastor and it was honestly worth the wait. The asada had that legit grilled flavor, the chorizo was bold and savory, and the al pastor was juicy with that slightly sweet, seasoned vibe. I also paid extra for the grilled onions and chile toreado, and I'm glad I did it even came with a grilled nopal (so good). That combo seriously leveled everything up. Only reason it's 4 stars is the crowd/wait situation. If you come on a Sunday, just know you're committing to the line. I'd definitely come back, just on a less chaotic day. read more

It's all about the meats. Hecho Al Carbon has three different categories of meats. Each category has its own price range. They have just about every taco you can imagine. They even have a Filet Mignon taco. The food comes out quickly and they have a wide array of salsas to choose from. read more

Everything I've had here has been great. I work in sales and often come here with customers or take them lunch from here and everyone always asks where I got the food because it was amazing. Everything is fresh, quality, and the establishment is clean. Keep up the good work. read more

Straight up GAS!! Found this place through Instagram and it did not disappoint. I ordered the La Papota and chose chicken and asada for my two proteins--perfect if you want something filling and high in protein without being greasy. The potato came out hot with a soft inside and crispy skin, and both meats were well-seasoned and full of flavor. I also got two asada tacos, which were just as good. The restaurant was clean and nice inside, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back. Highly recommend! read more

Been seeing this place pop up a lot on my Instagram decided to come check them out. They are definitely a Tacos Los Cholos / Prime Cut Taqueria duplicate. Menu is almost the same but there's nothing wrong with that. I will say that surf and turf burrito is absolutely delicious. They don't skimp out on the portions of protein. The loaded potato was good but nothing crazy. My only real complaint with this restaurant is that they wait times for the food are too long and since the restaurant is small, it's really hard to find seating. If you are in the area, check them out! read more

Must try the Premium surf and turf burrito. It's loaded with so much meat and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Super saucy, and tasty. I didn't have to add any sauces because it was so dang tasty. The side of beans were amazing. Refried beans that is. The staff were friendly and got the order right. The line was out the door and the lady taking orders kept her cool. The food came out pretty quickly. And they give you a pretty good portion of their meats. I would definitely bring my fam and friends to try this place. The sauces, cilantro, lime, onion, and raddish station were self serve. I wished it were pre-packed and ready to grab. The line to get sauces can get long too. I didn't take any pics, I was way too hungry to take them. My receipt is attached. read more
