And their tacos are good i usually get the veggie and family gets asada, pollo, lena and pork we are greeted warmly at the counter and since it's a simple menu easy to order. lots of tables for seating and there's a great condiment bar stocked with fresh limes, radishes, salsas (3 types) and onions. Tacos come out quickly for pick up and time to eat. the lengua is good it and tender and i liked the chicken it was grilled but stewed and not dry if u are in IV area and craving tacos give Lilly a try.

If that's what you want, you're in luck, but they were a bit expensive for what you received, and I'd rather have a fat flour tortilla burrito or authentic crunchy taco with cheese. The inside of the restaurant feels cold. Just a bunch of tables that you find and seat yourself to while you're waiting for your food to be made.

I have never heard of a birria bagel so naturally I was intrigued. We visited el Zocalo on a…read morerecommendation and since we were in IV, decided to try it out. We ordered a breakfast burrito and the BBB bagel. My husband really enjoyed the breakfast burrito and salsas they provided. The birria bagel with consomé was a unique combination that oddly worked. The bagel soaked up the consomé nicely and although really hard to eat, the flavors of the birria, fried egg, and cream cheese went very well together. I got a couple of pieces of inedible fat in my birria unfortunately but the flavor was really good. I wouldn't get this again as it was way too filling for me and instead would opt out for the taco or quesabirria next time. Service was friendly and quick. I really enjoyed the vibe in there and understand why it's a recommended spot.

Headed to Yelp and here we are. The establishment is small and quaint with both indoor and outdoor seating. The attendant at the counter had a great smile and greeted us with grace. Maria's is on the campus so the ambiance will be accordingly enhanced. It was Friday night and the party was live around campus. We ordered 4 and 4 the locals way! The preparation was very well done with diligence and precision. The tacos were absolutely beautiful. The batter was perfect. Golden brown and crisp. The toppings were beautifully colored and the sauce seemed perfect. The first bite was not my expectation. Remember I enjoy some seasoning. I just want it. These tacos aside from the toppings and sauce were very bland. Please dine here, my palate likes seasoning. If you are in the area dine in

I recently returned and got exactly what I used to get and was disappointed in the lack of seasoning/flavor in general. I saw someone else comment that chipotle has more flavor and I'm inclined to agree-especially when it comes to the chicken. Service is always friendly and fast and I always want to support a local business over a national chain, but I'm sad to say I don't know if I'll be returning after spending $25 for a bland experience.

Fantastic burritos and great service is the easiest way for me to describe this bakery…read more My husband and I were in town for a wedding when we stumbled across Cristino's. We stopped by for a burrito and pan dulce on Saturday morning and arrived just in time to miss the morning rush. The woman at the counter was friendly and took our order quickly. Even with the rush of people we got our food quickly and there were benches out front to sit while you wait. We ordered the Tropical Carnitas burrito and the chorizo burrito (added avocado for an extra cost). While the carnitas were tender and flavorful, we definitely preferred the chorizo. We purchased two pieces of pan dulce and two coffees, you serve your own coffee from a station in the corner. The food was so good, we stopped for another bite before leaving the next day and the same employee greeted us, inviting us back the next time we were in town. I definitely recommend the food and bread here, we'll be stopping by whenever we're next in town!

The fries were definitely the star of the show and I could eat them all day. Steak fries are hard to find unless you're eating at a steakhouse so having these so readily available.

I'm looking forward to having more fries and more steak!

This one sits in a strip mall so there is plenty of free parking and seats to eat at. My wife was bummed that there was no more sea urchin to be bought when we pulled in at dinner time but the fried fish taco special was too good to pass up so we both ordered that, the kiddo got the grilled salmon plate, and we also got a bowl of clam chowder to share. All the food was delicious! The fish tacos were the way I like them- a big piece of fish with cabbage, a little pico de gallo, and a dollop of sauce- not too many overpowering flavors to let the fish be the star of the show. The clam chowder was creamy with plenty of clams, and the salmon plate had great salmon that was cooked nicely (still moist) and what was likely an entire avocado sliced up on the plate. Great food, we'd definitely come back!

Really enjoyed the fresh oysters here. The smallest, most expensive one (they had a few different ones that day so I tried one of each) was understandably the tastiest and creamiest of the bunch. The other ones were good too, and all of them had a salty brine on them. They also provided some lemon wedges, marinara (?) sauce, and hot sauce. The fried soft-shell crab burger was interesting to try once, not particularly my taste but if you like fried soft-shell crab it could be great for you. I would like to come back, especially for the fresh oysters. Hoping to try some other menu items next time.
