    Best Oscars there is. The Oscar's in surprise don't even have agua frescas, dessert or a salsa bar. Service was also very welcoming and fast for three orders

    Carnitas Taco Al Pastor Taco Crispy Chicken Taco
    naomi k.

    Food is so FIRE! definitely recommend the Al pastor taco, they fill the taco so much and it comes with two tortillas so you literally get 2 tacos for the price of one, not only that, it's loaded with GUAC and pico, they also have a SALSA BAR, limes, cucumber, many different salsas, onion jalepenos. They also have daily specials only listed in store, but not online. $2.75 extra stuffed tacos (not street taco size.. BIGGER!) for taco Tuesday. Definitely recommend stopping in! I went to the taco spot down the road and waited in line for 15 minutes without being helped, left there and came here to Oscar's instead and I'm so glad I did! A hidden gem and the salsa bar honestly just makes it worth it

    Excellent service with authentic Mexican food that is always a great deal. One of the better salsa bars with a great selection- including fresh peppers, onions, carrots, cucumbers, radish, and limes! We had the Street Tacos plate, Carnitas Plate, and combo Taco and Enchilada plate. All were excellent!

    Solid mexican food. Welcoming service. The quesabirria tacos were some of the best I've ever had. Will 100% return!!

    You can get the world's most expensive taco at the Grand Velas Los Cabos for $25,000 USD. Available at the resort's Frida restaurant, the culinary masterpiece includes such premium ingredients as langoustine, Kobe beef, Almas Beluga caviar, and black truffle brie cheese. While you might not get langoustine or Kobe beef, here at Oscar's Tacos Shop, you can still get some good eats at a more affordable price tag. I ordered the Combo #2 - Crispy Tacos, one potato and one chicken. Both crispy tacos were just what I needed before running my errands. I know what you want to ask, "Joyce, you ate a heavy meal before errands and didn't fall into a food coma?" I did and I was energized! Don't sleep on their beans either because they serve them thicc here. THICC. The rice was decent too. I'd love to shake Oscar's hand because these were some great tacos.

    I ordered lunch online today for pickup. This time I got the chicken asada burrito. It comes with chicken, pico & guacamole. I added sour cream, beans & cilantro. My work is just down the street. I left & when I got there it was only a couple minutes before my order was ready. The bag was heavy for just a burrito. The burrito was huge & fat! It was full of chicken and the other stuff. They wrap it in aluminum foil to keep it warm. I was going to take a picture, but I was so hungry I started eating it. By the time I thought to take a pic I was already 6 bites in. I could only eat half of it. I brought the other half home. Should make for a good lunch this weekend. The place was packed, so ordering online is the way to go. Plus you earn rewards. After you spend so much you get money off. This is definitely my go to place for Mexican food for lunch!

    3.8 % to eat in on top of tip for blah food take your business elsewhere ............. No sign no informing the public and when you ask, they just say yes for sitting inside. Look at the note on top of the receipt. I guess that's their new policy within 24 hours disclaimer lol See the difference in price to the right that's 3.8 %to eat in crappy food to The charge does not say eat in I asked the counter person at 3.8 percent per item plus tip to eat in

    Quesabirras
    Erica B.

    Loved, loved, loved the Quesabirras. The flavors were out of this world. Plenty of beef in the sauce, perfect about of salt, lime and onion. Party of 2 stopped in for Taco Tuesday (single tacos $2.25, I believe). We ordered two fried crispy chicken tacos, one Quesabirras special (comes with a foundation drink) and one beef burrito. The burrito and tacos came out as soon as we sat down. The quesabirras took a few minutes, which I appreciate. Again, the flavors of the beef were perfect, the meat however, was tough, in both the Quesabirria and the burrito. The chicken on the tacos were tough and dry. We both took 2 bites and left the rest. Service was quick and friendly. I'd visit again!!! Service was

    Breakfast burrito for under $10 and it filled me up, but I probably won't be back. Salsa bar was pretty average.

    We stopped in to give it a try. I ordered a chicken quesadilla which ended up being more like a burrito. It was very good, but not at all like what you think of when quesadilla comes to mind. I think it could've had a little more flavor. It was very mild and the green sauce they gave us was too watery and I didn't care for it. I had a side of beans which were good. Hubby had the carne asada burrito which he thoroughly enjoyed. Packed full of meat. The portions are huge and the prices are good. I will definitely go back. We went inside and took our order to go, but now I know the drive thru makes this even more appealing.

We went to here as they were one of the late night spots still open. *This along with a hibiscus drink (large) and a cola! Approximately 50$. * Service was simple, kind, order at the register- type of spot. Ambiance wasn't busy for a Sunday night but the vibes were there, and I can imagine they get busy and can handle a lot with the seating options they have.

The meats are so good. We also use to love the sushi side. During Covid, we tried the sushi for the first time. We were hesitant as it's a Mexican joint, right? Not a Japanese specialty shop. So to my surprise, I couldn't believe the sushi especially the Las Vegas roll and their Nigiri cuts were pretty dang good. My disappointment seems to be this last year with the sushi just hasn't been the best or fresh tasting. The Las Vegas roll was always nice and warm but with an awesome cold center and fried to perfection and the sauce just right. Lately it's been the opposite. Super over fried were all you can taste is old burnt oil and it dried out and the sauce just bland and not helping at all. The other thing that bothers us is the lack of wasabi they give! If you're not going to give us full flavor, at least give more wasabi to help mask. I will say they give you plenty of soy sauce packets (just barely any wasabi).

    Best hole in the wall restaurant for quesabirrias!…read more They're open daily except Mondays - Tues-Thurs - 9am-9pm - Fri & Sat - 9am-10pm - Sun - 9am-8pm Parking was easy since the parking lot is pretty spacious and it isn't shared with too many other businesses. Service was so friendly and welcoming! Pricing was very reasonably priced and the portions are so generous. Inside was spacious and had plenty of seating. The Quesabirria ($3.99) was so delicious! It was stuffed with tender and juicy shredded beef! It was packed with flavor and the dipping sauce was so good! The taco was so cheesy and fresh! Definitely a must get! Horchata ($4.64) was good and refreshing. It had lots of cinnamon on the bottom so definitely needed a good stir prior to drinking. It was very sweet but definitely one of the better Horchatas I've had since it didn't taste artificial. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and would definitely return and recommend!

    Such a great Mexican place! I would recommend this place extremely highly!…read more Food: I got the chicken quesadilla which was probably the best flavored quesadilla I've had in a while. They give you bottles of source to use which I loved. We also got the quesabarilla which is beef based, so I didn't have any. But my friends review was 10/10 in terms of flavors Drinks: horchata was really sweet for me. But the drinks are substantial so I'd recommend getting 1 to share Service: good service! Ambience: no frills space! There is ample seating which was great!
