Al Pastor tacos w Watermelon Agua Fresca - Large 5.03.24
Mimi J.

Stumbled upon this individual taco stand business as we were venturing to the Food House located across from Realz Taco. On a Friday lunch. Food House was gonna take awhile to get our food served and we were on a time crunch. So decided to give Realz Taco a try. The service was good & fast. We got the ~Al pastor tacos were good. Street taco size. It was decent and well flavored. ~Watermelon Fresca was refreshing. Good and not overly sweet. Taste pretty natural. Only downfall is that there's no seatings inside. You order at the counter and pick up your food on the other side of building. They have a few stone tables and benches available. Just no umbrella for shades. You're like eating on the parking lot where the outdoor seating area is at. Plenty of parking.

This is a glob of hair I'm my food.  Gross!

Hair in the food! I found hairS in my food. What an appetite killer. This is the LAST time I'll be going here.

Al pastor and carne asada tacos "the real way"

Our go to spot whenever we get a car wash at Riverbend. Make sure to order your tacos "the real way" a layer of beans, your meat, onions, cilantro and sour cream. As simple as it sounds the beans and sour cream makes a huge difference. If they have fish for their fish tacos it's solid and a must. Haven't seen it on the menu for a while now though. I only wish that they used French fries for their California burrito instead of breakfast potatoes.

Shoutout to the owner of this restaurant making it a great and memorable experience! I work nearby and my coworker and I were blessed with a great experience! The tacos themselves have a great amount of meat on them which is rare for taco places nowadays! They were so good, I forgot to take pictures of them with cilantro, onion, and salsa verde on them lol! You can usually judge a place by how good their tortilla chips are and the chips here are no joke! Great crunch, great flavor, and great guacamole to pair them with! My coworker and I will definitely be coming back on some lunch breaks to enjoy some more and try all we can from the menu!

There are ONLY two paths Real Tacoz can choose in order to keep it from going out of business. #1. Change the name of the business from Real Tacoz, to Really Small Tacoz, and adapt gimmick marketing. Have slogans like, "Orange County's Smallest Tacos," "Size doesn't matter", and stock up on gimmick merch. #2. Focus on normal size tacos, offer quality meats, and stop with the deceptive marketing. I would recommend the latter. Focus on your quality and your clientele will take care of you. Seriously guys, sometimes you have to take a loss in the beginning in order to profit. It takes time to achieve that, it's not an overnight thing. You're in a pricey area, and people there will pay for quality. I want to support local businesses like Real Tacoz, so can you please start offering truly real tacos?

A authentic, Mexican restaurant in a Latino neighborhood that exploded with their delicious meals …read more They got so popular that they remodeled and expanded to accommodate their customers The breakfast dishes are made with seasonings that enhance the enchiladas with either green or red chili with a fried egg on top including homemade refried beans, arroz.. This place has their house coffee with cinnamon. That was my granmothers secret so I thought. They have menudo on weekends. They have brunch..a wonderful enclosed patio especially designed by a relative who is also a architect. Try it, you'll love it. Prices are reasonable.

My family and I visited for a late lunch on a Sunday, and there was a fifteen-minute wait to get…read moreseated. There's only an outdoor waiting area, but it has chairs. We parked across the street near an intersection with a stop sign. Our table inside had a nice view of the Placentia Water Tower, and it felt somehow relaxing to gaze at it in the distance. I ordered the pork carnitas ($18), which included pico de gallo, rice, refried beans with melted cheese, and three warm tortillas. The portion size was large, and I took a some carnitas home. While the carnitas were tender, they weren't as juicy as I hoped. They provided only three tortillas that lost their warmth quickly in parchment paper. The rice had a good texture that had the right amount of firmness. I also tried the guacamole, which had a somewhat fluffy texture with a pleasantly light and savory flavor. While not affecting my review of this restaurant, I wish they served a mole dish.

We made a reservation online and walked in with ease--our table was ready and our party was seated…read moreimmediately. The food was absolutely amazing. Everything was fresh, and as soon as items started running low, they were quickly replenished. Our server, Jamie, was incredibly attentive to our group and kept the mimosas flowing the entire time. Keep up the great service and outstanding food!

I keep giving this place a try... and it keeps failing for various reasons. Reservations were made…read moreand not available upon arrival, loud music out on the patio and several tables asked for it to be turned down but never was, expensive to eat and no menu options during the brunch timeframe, the list goes on. But our last straw was during our last visit. We had one person in our party that was drinking way to much and way too fast. We asked the server and also the bartender to please not serve her any more drinks. Yet they kept on serving. This person was passing out drinks to others on their tab right in front of the bartender... and we had already asked at least twice to please stop serving to them. The rest of our party had already left but we stayed for about an hour and a half trying to get things straightened out. We drove the person home but will never be back. Service is pretty good here normally, not great but fairly decent. Along the same lines as our story above... if your party isn't drinking during the brunch buffet, don't expect great service, they cater to the drinkers. Alcohol comes WAY before food service and the more you drink the better the service and attitude. Two times while dining here, we have had to correct our bill, charged for things that weren't ours or incorrectly. Ridiculous. We've had several meet ups with friends and/or family here in the past but each time it was not our call... and from now on we will just pass, it never gets better, just keeps getting worse. Nope.
