    Carne asada burrito with fries aka California Burrito
    Billi B.

    Was driving home and I was craving a burrito so I decided to try this place out. From the outside it looks like a typical taco shop. Went through the drive thru. No cars, no wait. I wanted a legitimate California burrito so I asked them if they can replace the potatoes for fries which they did. Burrito was massive! About the same size as my forearm. It was loaded and well balanced with protein, fats and carbohydrates. Overall, I enjoyed this massive burrito. The only downside to it was I had maybe 2-3 bites that had one of those super chewy fatty carne asada pieces. Other than that I thought it was great!

    Highly disappointed in tonight's dinner. Stopped at Los Betos for some Mexican food. When we got there we found out that it's drive thru only. It wasn't a big deal so we ordered to go. I ordered the two taco combo meal and my husband grabbed the two enchilada combo meal. Everything was going smoothly. Paid at the window. After hanging out for a bit while the food was being made the gentleman working the window told us they were out of rice. With rice being a main side for all your meals, how does one run out of rice? We were asked if we wanted any salsa. We said yes. Got our food and headed on our way. Arriving home I was getting our dinners situated. Opening my to go container, everything looked great but it was hard not to notice how much smaller the tacos they are serving now. They have shrunk dramatically. They were good but would have been better if the salsa that they were supposed to give me were in the bag. The tacos are very one noted since there was no salsa to pair with it. My husband's enchilada was ok. They were not really warm in the middle. The way everything was packaged, it looked like it was all slapped together really fast. I have really fond memories of Los Betos. Late night snacks. Food after going out. But tonight's dinner just didn't make the cut. With Mexican restaurants popping up all over town, you'd think you'd be on top of your A game. Unfortunately tonight really missed that mark from food, service and presentation.

    Listen, if I'm paying $11 for a burrito I might want more than two little salsas. I think it's reasonable. Especially since I can always go inside and get it.

    If you are used to Taco Shops in CA. This is it. Drive thru only. Open 24 hours. Consistently good.

    Where you gonna go when it's 3:00 in the morning and you're bored and hungry and craving Mexican food? Or when you drank way too much the night before and need a greasy, fat meal to get over that hangover? Or really, any time you want cheap food?! Thank God for Betos, Boise's original 'round-the-clock drive thru. It's 10:30am on Tuesday and my dumbass didn't eat breakfast and my belly is screaming at me. Mexican food sounded so good but I didn't want anything fancy. So Los Betos it was! I ordered Combination Plate #14 - Chicken Chimichanga ($11.49). I didn't have to wait long at all before I was able to lose myself in the most delicious meal I thought I'd ever had (at the time). First thing I noticed was how damn hefty that box was. The freaking thing must have weighed about 5 pounds and I probably gained 10 after eating it. There was an extremely generous amount of rice, beans, lettuce and guac. All surrounding my beautiful bundle of heavenly deep fried deliciousness which was also stuffed to the max of yummy chicken and cheese sprinkled on top. I am so hungry just thinking about how delicious and amazing this meal was. Not to mention the value is unbeatable. This guy lasted me two fantastic meals and was the reason I survived that Tuesday. Perfect seasoning, excellent flavor, none of that day-old greasy aftertaste. It was all so f r e s h. I could go on but I think I've made my point. This is my new favorite Betos item. I've had it in the past but someone was done right with this particular chimichanga. Idk what it was but it's got me tempted to swing by tonight for more. 10/10 all the way!

    Chorizo burrito, I pulled apart to add sour cream and guacamole.

    I can only review for the breakfast burritos as I haven't tried anything else here. We got 3 breakfast burritos yesterday. Two chorizo and one sausage. They were HUGE and packed with great flavor. The drive thru was busy for a Sunday morning but the wait wasn't too ridiculous. If your craving a yummy breakfast burrito that isn't overly expensive, I recommend trying Los Betos.

    Guys, we have a problem. Seriously. Betos, what the actual f***? This lazy, unbelievable performance masquerading as late-night cuisine made me so mad that I didn't even eat it - and I had just exercised for three hours, so I was ravenous and ready to nom. No. After three bites, I had to open up the burrito and witness the truth. From its entrails, I picked out every piece of dry meat and formed a pile: it was less than a spoonful. Sour cream in there, supposedly... do you see the evaporated white foam in the photo? Yeah. I don't even know HOW they did that... Guacamole was a thought but not reality. Somewhere in there was a wisp of green. That's it. This place will never have my business again. Even in a fugue state I could make a better burrito. My advice: do not waste your money.

    Shredded beef tacos? I think not.
    Kat D.

    After several bad experiences at Los Betos recently, tonight was the last time we will be going back. We placed an order for 2 burritos ( 1 Idaho & 1 California) & 3 beef tacos. When my husband arrived home with our food I opened the box to find 3 ground beef tacos. They don't even have ground beef tacos on the menu. Also, they no longer fry the shells fresh to order, they appear to be premade. My husband went back to Los Betos to get the shredded beef tacos that we ordered and the guy at the window refused to replace them. My husband had the food and the receipt with him. The guy did not care. The employee made my husband pay a second time for the correct order! WTF?!?! Seriously? Los Betos really needs to undergo some changes. I'm over it.

    I'm a regular at this location very recently, I normally visit the sister locations of this restaurant! I really do enjoy the food, but the service that I've received at this specific spot has not been very great. Everyone I've interacted with in the drive thru specifically these two ladies, are not kind and very short every single time I've visited. I really want to keep coming here, especially since the location is convenient, but will not continue to do so because it's such a negative experience. I can understand someone going thru a tough time and being busy with costumers but to be consistent in how they show up, and be rude to that amount is really sad. I just wish they would be more kind.. will definitely continue to visit the sister stores for sure tho they have been respectful and a lovely interaction!

    My wife and I were looking for a great Mexican food restaurant and we found it in Coa de Jima…read more We started with the Ceviche appetizer which was a recommendation of our wonderful waitress and it was phenomenal. It was just spicy enough to be noticed but not enough to ruin the meal. We pared it with the Cadillac margaritas which were amazing. I had the carnitas dinner which was delicious and abundant. Coa de Jima is definitely one of the best Mexican restaurants in the treasure valley and a great place for a date night, taco tuesday or mid-week dinner.

    I was excited to dine here (first visit), but was disappointed in the food and drinks…read more Walking in, the decor is beautiful and dramatic. Full bar, large booths. It's very inviting, if not decadent feeling. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were lacking. My mocktail was recommended by our server, but it was much too sweet, and had a weird aftertaste. We ordered chips, guac, and it came with two versions of salsa. One was incredibly bitter (tasted very vinegar-y), while the other just tasted strange. Neither me or my husband like it. The guac, however, was very good. We ordered the Seafood Ceviche, which is a dish we usually love, but not so much here! It was covered in an orange sauce that was overly acidic. It was so much and so acidic, we couldn't taste the seafood. It was lost in the sauce. It seems as though whoever's in the kitchen lacks some culinary intuition. The staff were good. It'a dimly lit, even during the day, for those with sight issues.

I've been here for almost 2 years and the BEST Mexican food I have found was in Twin Falls. NO I do not want to go to Twin Falls to get Mexican food, especially w/ the price of gas now. I was searching online for a new restaurant to go to for lunch and for some reason "Garibaldis Garden City" popped up. First, Garibaldis, does not really sound like a Mexican restaurant, but after reading the reviews and checking out their website, I am thinking why not...can't be any worse than Andrades, Chapala or Barrigas. Went in around noon, not crowded, but again its gorgeous outside, and I like a relaxed atmosphere. We sat at the bar, our server (bartender) Michael (who is from San Diego) was great. We really didn't need any recommendations because I already had set in my head what I was going to order. We started out with the "salsa flight", 3 different salsas, 1 smokey hot sauce, 1 more chunky and a mango habanero" which all 3 were very good. I loved that there was actually some spice and heat in all 3. Okay, the Mango it grows on you, the more you eat it the better it gets. We also ordered a maggie on the rocks w/ Casa Amigos Reposado and a ranch water with the Blanco. I also ordered the Coctel Garibaldis, which is shrimp & octopus and the shrimp was nice and large and the octopus was a nice size, NEITHER was mushy, THEY BOTH tasted so fresh (enough to share). For our main, Chicken Fajitas and Carne Asada....I normally do not like the refried beans here in Boise at the Mexican restaurants we have tried, but these beans tasted like HOME, LIKE MY MOTHER IN LAW MADE THEM~! The chicken fajitas ...there was actually MORE CHICKEN than peppers which is a 1st...and it was huge slices and chunks. My Carne Asada, OMG, huge amount and it was so flavorful, I doubt I could have done any better. NOW, I am a tortilla snob and I make my own flour tortillas, but THEY HAD SERIOUSLY LITERALLY the best DAMN corn tortillas I have tasted in YEARS! They almost look like flour, but once you taste them, incredible. We (he) ordered the Coco Flan for dessert, I don't do dessert so I ordered the Casa Azul Anejo....met 2 women drinking Maggies, we agreed, if we are going to do calories, we are drinking them and not eating them...but in all, the SERVICE, Food, the atmosphere, was all worth it. Will we go again, YOU BET, I may even have to sneak over for a few lunches by myself it was that good. Again, thanks Michael, you were on Point!
