    AGUAS FRESCAS

    I live super far from here, but drive all this way to eat here. They have some of the best tacos! Their service is pretty quick and the staff is always nice. Finding seating is easy because it's located inside the Montclair Place food court. There is plenty of seating inside the food court, along with other great restaurant counters within. My husband and kids try the other places, but, I stick to my tacos from here. I can't pass up a chance to have em.

    Ordered yesterday for the first time, 11/20/21. We ordered to go and we were craving some tacos. We tried: - 2 Shrimp Tacos: $7 - Shrimp Quesadilla: $6 - Burrito Bowl: $10 SUBTOTAL: $23 TAX (8%): $1.84 SERVICE CHARGE (3%): $0.69 TOTAL: $25.53 The food was good however I'm giving this place 2 stars because the portions were so small, not worth the price! $7 for 2 small tacos, are you kidding me...also the burrito bowl is exactly the same as the Pollo Bowl from El Pollo Loco (and it's only $5!). The quesadilla was filling. This place also charges each customer on a "service charge" fee. I have no clue what this is for. The only service we received was the cashier putting in our order and an employee giving us sauces...I guess this is their version of an automatic tip? Overall if you really want to try this place out then I recommend the shrimp quesadilla. Otherwise, I really do not recommend this place at all.

    This taco place is incredible, and I honestly didn't expect this high of a quality from a mall location. The carne asada was tender, the beans and rice were well seasoned, and the limes were JUICY. JUICY LIMES. Anyone who goes to taco places regularly knows that you have to request an entire lime tree in order to adequately squeeze enough to cover your whole order. The service was relatively quick as well and the staff was friendly. I was surprised there wasn't really a line for this location, so act now before it stops being such a hidden gem. Also, I was with my young (around 1yr old) nephew, and we got him the quesadilla, which is thankfully made with a mexican white cheese (maybe chihuahua) instead of the shredded yellow kind that many Tex-Mex places use.

    This place is located in the food court in the West Covina mall. I couldn't decide what I wanted so I ordered the sampler tacos, which includes an Oli's taco, dirty queso taco, and a queso Birria taco with your choice of meat. I got carne asada for all of mine. My husband ordered the shrimp tacos. The Birria taco was burnt so I had to break off the outer shell. Other than that, everything tasted great! The salsas were good too. My favorite was the Oli's taco with the caramelized onions and cheese. Yum! Definitely recommend!

    Breakfast Burrito; steak, rice, beans, cheese and an over easy egg....mmmm runny....

    Every time I'm in the area I always get their breakfast burrito. It's my favorite breakfast burrito in town. Although it's missing potatoes or hash brown in it, it still slaps!!! Steak, rice beans, cheese and a runny egg tucked inside. This sport would've been a 5 star but I gotta say. I wasn't a fan of the either salsa, I think if they get better salsa this place would be complete. The salsa is watery and tasteless. Other than that, this is one of my go-to burrito spot. BYOS bring your own salsa guys....

    Someone can't wait to get to the Birria tacos
    Monica N.

    For sure the best place in a mall food court, you would never think to get birria tacos here queso tacos, but trust, they are so good, crunchy and tasty with the red onions and the salsa, omg!!! The plate comes with 3 and you can add the consomé on the side, but if you decide not to get it, it's fine. I came around 12 on a Friday so the wait wasn't too bad, however long they take, trust, it's worth it, enjoy!!

    dildo in cooks hands???!!!!! disgusting !!! i cant make this up! it's 01/12/2024 at @ approximately 2:04 pm i had just ordered and as i waited by the tables directly infront of olis tacos i am facing in rhe restaurants direction when an older hispanic/latina lady came out the back and called for the cashier showing her huge rubber penis so evident that the tip was pink and the rest a light caucasian color with testicles!!! it took me a second to register the fact that shes back there cooking my food and only she knows where thats been at or if its been used!!!!! you dont bring that to a restaurant let alone as a cook!!! thats against so many health violations its unbelievable!! so i approached the cashier and told her "cancel my order your cook is back there with a dildo its disgusting!!" she immediately apologized and said " im sorry i dont know why she even did that?" it was so evident that yer own moral values couldnt deny it!! i canceled my order and grab food from chinese food from the restaurant next door ‍ " eat at your own risk " usually means the food might jot be good its not supposed to mean " you mght catch a sexual disease !! ILL BE FILING A COMPLAINT WITH THE MALL AND HEALTH OFFICIALS TO INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER

    The Sampler Taco - Birria taco, asada in the other two
    LadyAnne D.

    My go-to for food at the Montclair mall. Get the Sampler! You won't be sorry... just ask for the habanero sauce on the side for the Oli taco if you're more of a mild type, and you can choose type of meat. The cucumber lime agua Fresca is good too!

    Ordered a burrito to eat here and the don't provide plates or tray or anything! I asked for at least a to go box so my son can place his food on something... oh sorry we don't have plates ! And we can't give you any to go container for free, you have to pay for it !! - Really Bad Customer Service- Inaceptable - plus they charge a service fee without letting you know.. food was ok but not the best .. employee's attitude is very important.. owner should teach them than

    Incredibly good food!! I stopped by to critic the food at the Plaza and I am so glad that I did. At first I was reluctant to try this place because I saw that they listed a tofu taco which is definitely not traditional. However, I decided to order the tofu taco listed on the menu along with a shrimp quesadilla. My order came out to less than 8 dollars with tax and I must say it was definitely money well spent here's why: Food Small portions, but packed with flavor and deliciousness. The tofu was seasoned so perfectly I forgot I wasn't eating a taco with meat. Best tasting tofu taco I have ever had and I am not a fan of tofu. The shrimp quesadilla was also amazing, it was seasoned well and the shrimp tasted fresh (no fishy taste or order). The cheese was of good quality and was not overly greasy. I asked for the spicy salsa and it was actually spicy and flavorful. Customer service: Very polite workers who are both fast and efficient. I didn't have to wait long for my order. I think I waited at most five minutes, which is very impressive because the food tasted great. Chef(s) Excellent job on both flavor and presentation! Keep up the great work!

    The Asada was a weird texture like round to it but good flavor. The corn tortillas are homemade and delicious I ordered some to go so I can have them with posole! Yum!

    They Put Plenty Of Meat & Cheese In The Quesadillas.
    Nikkie S.

    The item that I like ordering all the time is the quesadilla. The quesadilla is always filled with meat and cheese every single time. The filling includes any meat of your choice and you put whatever veggies and sauce you want. They have the usual meat options as in carnitas, chicken, asada, and many others. Most of the meats are tender and taste fresh when you order them. There are many options on the menu, from street tacos to veggie tacos and wet burrito, surf & turf, and breakfast burritos they all taste pretty good. As for the sides, they have many sauces, cilantro, and onions all fresh and you get a good amount per order. The popular sauce is the red sauce it's good with everything as it is very spicy. They put the sauce in small plastic containers when ordering to-go and with your meal. Even though this eatery is located in a food court, the food is made after you place your order, when I received my food they never tasted stale or under cooked. The wait time is quick, around 10 minutes, which is great if you are in for a quick bite. They also carry many drinks and their agua frescas are refreshing and delicious. They have a few flavors that constantly change but no matter what time of day you order them they are great. If you are looking for a "self-serve" condiments section they do not have one - you have to keep coming up to the counter to ask for some.

    This is my go to spot at the mall. Friendly staff and quick service. I love trying different menu items, but I typically stick to the classic- tacos! I recommend the al pastor & carne asada tacos

I love a good hard shell taco and the carne asada was so flavorful and had the char-grilled taste that I absolutely love! The tacos were pretty big too which made me so full.

The food and service have definitely had their ups and downs over the years. It's still good, but I don't think it's quite what it used to be, especially at the current price point. I stopped in on a Sunday evening when Claremont Village was pretty light. There were several families enjoying themselves on the patio, which is still a nice place to grab a bite and hang out. The biggest issue this visit was the wait. There was one person steadily working on fresh tortilla production, which I could appreciate, but the cashier was also the person cooking and preparing all the food. I had a larger order for my family, so I was already waiting a while when I watched another family walk up. They were acknowledged, but after waiting at least five minutes without getting a chance to actually place their order, they eventually left. While I was waiting, I went over to the self-serve salsa bar, which was pretty much dry. There wasn't any obvious sign of a fresh restock happening either. If you're going to have a self-serve salsa bar, it should be stocked. The fish tacos were the highlight for me. The fish was a nice thick cut, with fresh cabbage and a spicy sauce that worked really well. The nachos had potential, but the asada was overcooked and a little dry. Overall, Petiscos is still good, but the price is higher than I think it should be, and the wait time doesn't help. I've been coming here long enough that I know what I'm getting, and it's close enough to home that I'll come back when it's convenient. This isn't somewhere I'd take someone to impress or go when I'm looking for a really good meal. I'm not sure I'd even recommend it to an out-of-towner. It's more of a casual stop or a place to grab something with the family and hang out on the patio. Overall, still good enough to come back to from time to time, but it's shy of being one of the better spots around.

But some shady charges or maybe we'll call it miscommunication just rubbed me the wrong way.

We've done this many times in the past and always been charged the same price for both. I asked the server at the end "the veggie version is 8$ more expensive than chicken?" And he just shrugged and said yes. Just found it interesting that a meat dish would be 8$ less than a purely cheese/veggie dish. Especially since done this in the past with no issue. I also asked for "hot sauce" for my dish. They brought out a spicier house salsa as the hot sauce...totally understandable and the salsa here is usually free. Apparently it's a 4$ "chipotle sauce" that the waiter did not inform me would be charged. I would've easily just said I want tapatio or no "hot sauce". I used maybe a teaspoon for 4$. I told the waiter this when we questioned the bill and he just shrugged. These may seem like small inconveniences but when they seem like they intentionally don't tell you the details and then when called out about it just kinda shrug it off, it was a disappointing end to an otherwise tasty dinner. We love it here and will certainly be back but it just sucks that I have to be extra cautious & skeptical when ordering from now on.

Overall, still pretty nice though. I liked how they had the side bar, which it doesn't look entirely the cleanest, but pretty decent. Total for 3 tacos came out to be $9, so it's about $3 each.

I was honestly too hungry and eager to take a picture beforehand, but I can assure you the portions are plentiful. The tacos were a little greasy, but still really satisfying.
