This place was SO GOOD! I ordered the breakfast burrito with vegan chorizo, potatoes, and cheese,…read moreand I am not exaggerating when I say it was the best burrito I've had in decades. The vegan chorizo was incredibly flavorful--you absolutely do not feel like you're sacrificing anything by choosing it. Everything worked perfectly together. We also ordered an al pastor burrito wet, and that was delicious too. The sauce was rich, savory, and full of flavor and took the whole burrito to another level. And the chips and salsa? To die for. Seriously. Even the chips and salsa were memorable. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor, and both the vegan option and the traditional meat option were excellent. We will absolutely be back. Five stars, easily!

I was hoping they would have a Taco Tuesday special or something but they don't... I ordered 2 carne asada and 1 al pastor tacos to go. They were prettty solid and delicious! Carne asada was really nice, the al pastor was definitely more flavorful, but it had more of the burnt ends, so it was either even more flavorful from the charred parts, or it was a bit hard and too crispy to have. 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. Kinda high for tacos imo, but they're pretty good.

Parking is limited, so we were happy to snag one of the last spots. This is an order-at-the-counter spot with a salsa bar, hot beans, indoor and outdoor seating, and even Mexican Coke. Indoor seating is also pretty limited, so my friend and I were glad to grab one of the small tables. I ordered the lengua and asada tacos and both were flavorful, tender, and loaded with meat. 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. Solid taco spot if you're in Pomona.

We were a party of four and my kids loved it too, which is always a plus for me! I even took a little video because I wanted to capture the food and the beautiful atmosphere.

We absolutely love this place and decided to come for our anniversary. I'll preface this by saying…read morethe food taste was amazing, like always. But some shady charges or maybe we'll call it miscommunication just rubbed me the wrong way. I always order the mole chicken enchiladas and my wife (being vegetarian) asks for the same dish but if the enchiladas can be vegetable or cheese. Apparently this means a 8$ up charge? 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.

My go to place to get tasty Mexican food. I ordered the chili verde burrito. It is packed with full of flavor & does not disappoint. This burrito, you have to eat with a fork because the burrito is soft & may fall apart when you pick it up. This place has been around for around 50 years. This place is located not in the best part of town. Be alert of your surroundings, especially at night. read more

They were greasy the cook had dipped the tortillas in grease to heat them up. were damp with it. and the beef taco had a strong gamy flavor that was distracting. The meat was chewy not tender. I only took about three bites of it., The pork meat taco was too dry and there was really no flavor other than spicy. The tortilla was pretty oily. I would order chicken anything from them again, that chicken taco was very good.! In the future, I would avoid the beef and pork. The coke was ice cold. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was a buffet set up with many different trays of food behind glass at the kitchen front. Some trays looked delicious others looked over heated under the lights. They were a hard pass. Everything was $15 to $19 a plate with rice and beans. Burritos are $15 to 17. The restaurant is pretty simple tables with folding chairs in a big room.

I'd pass on the barbacoa next time and just get the al pastor and asada. Fish taco was just okay for me as well. I think my mistake was that I ate that last. I should've eaten it first when it's super crispy because they take it right off the frying pan. Everything tastes pretty fresh and I think I saw them pressing tortillas? But it was all in the kitchen so I couldn't see too clear. Overall, not too bad. However, I still love me some street vendors more than an actually sit down place.
