Austin B.

Old reliable. Always come here for the nachos/fries. Open late and good priced. Have some seating inside and outside but more of a take out vibe I went to school in SD and those quick fast food Mexican places are better but this definitely hits the spot when I'm craving

Did the drive-thru but service was nice! Carne asada fries is always my go-to and they make it perfectly each time! Full of flavor and fresh fries. I recommend ordering a full box instead of the half. I also got the horchata which was really sweet and not too cinnamon-y.

Super nachos with asada
Cat B.

Been a long time customer at formerly Alertos and now sabrosada we still call it Alertos. Have tried many things over the years super nachos, super fries, asada burritos, tacos, carnitas and chicken tacos, chilaquiles, asada combos, breakfast burritos, etc. Portions are fairly large. They have the best nachos. The asada meat is good for the most part but there was a time several years ago that it wasn't we stopped coming for sometime because of that. Their salsa is pretty good hated that they got real cheap with it for some years. Prices have really skyrocketed items used to a third of what they cost now. Have not eaten in in a while so cannot comment on ambiance.

MASSIVE BURRITO FOR $8! I have been craving a bean and cheese burrito for over a week and I'm so glad I came here to get one because it was so worth it. I was in and out of the drive thru in under 5 minutes, and the worker was quick and friendly. The burrito is even bigger than what is pictured too! I would definitely come here again and again. I've also had the carne asada fries which are really tasty too! Packed with flavor and the beans are nicely flavored! 10/10!!!

carne asada fries (half order ~$15)

Their carne asada fries are the best!! Photo does not do it justice. We always place a phone order and it's ready in 20 mins. We get a half order (no beans) and it's the perfect amount for 2 people at about $15. Best comfort meal ever :)

Carne Asada Nachos
Jenny H.

We love going here for Carne Asada Nachos. It's the perfect shareable amount and for a decent price! Pair it with a horchata and its chef's kiss! The drive-thru makes it so accessible; there is a bit of indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a rewards program now.

Receipt

Got the $10 Taco Tuesday special today. Two beef tacos and a medium drink. If the medium drink is considered free, that means each taco is $5. The tacos were not that big. I felt this is a scam food item, especially since one of my tacos was smaller than the other one with very little beef. I probably should have ordered something else or ordered from the Taco Bell app (give you more for less). Besides from that, the service was good and the ambiance is okay for a small business.

Ordered a full/large box of the Carne Asada fries. Came out after 5-10 minutes. Store only had a few customers waiting. For such a small place, there was plenty of seating inside and out. However the floors were a bit dirty. Taste was amazing, food came out quick, was incredibly filling for $18. (satisfied 2 people)

For nostalgic reasons, this place will always be Alerto's in my heart. Heck all my friends and family still call it Alerto's. The food is still good to this day but damn the younger generation will never know, cause back in the early 2000's the food here was fresh and top notch. A carne asada burrito or nachos back then was only $5. But hey inflation, it is a bit pricy here but only reason why I keep coming back is cause of nostalgic reasons.

Carne asada burrito
Long H.

Sabrosada aka alertos, use to be the go to spot for burritos for decades, but over the years the burritos has been mediocre at best. Late Thursday night decided to get sabrosada and pull up on the drive thru, my go to burrito is normally the pollo asada burrito $15 with tax. Quick 10 min drive home to eat it. When I ate the pollo asada burrito, it was basically slightly warm, Flavor of pollo asada tasted bland, with a lot of super cold guacamole. I felt the guacamole was too cold, so it quickly cooled down the pollo asada meat. Unfortunately the burrito failed badly to hit the late night craving. Bright side they did give me 3 small cups of red salsa.

No sauce

Jus picked up at order here to go. When pay athe windows, the cashier as if I want red sauce or green sauce. I confirmed red sauce. He then asked me again what sauce I want. I reconfirm I want red sauce. He then gave me my food and drove off. When I open the bag, there is not red sauce.

Frankly this place is expensive but the owners and employees cheap asf. $30 for 2 tacos and burrito and a drink not horrible but then they go to charge me for pickled veggies... ur 2 carrots 1 pepper and 2 red sauces is not at all going to suffice. Service is always crap and quality has gone way down since it was albertos. UPDATE: came back to see if the service would be any better 7/22 at 9:30 the thick girly and the skinny girly were busy laughing and chillin in the back to notice the entire line of drive through patrons. Then the attitude was crazy from the thick one with the sharpie brows - chose a struggle girly it's your job just pass me the hot sauce why are you trippin ...

Went on a Friday night and the line got kinda long by like 9:45 as expected. I didn't think the…read morewait was too bad though. Tacos were $2.50 like most of the other trucks/stands that I've been to in the area and super good. I also liked that they cucumbers with some sort of salsa on them instead of just plain cucumbers I liked both the cabeza and the pastor a lot, but suadero was the one that stood out to me the most compared to previous tacos that I've had. Def recommend giving suadero a try if you haven't yet! Two of my friends tried it for the first time and liked it a lot. Only thing that would've made it better is if the pastor taco came with pineapple

I've been coming to Tacos El May for a while now. They started as a stand in front of the Bank of…read moreAmerica around Bolsa and Magnolia, and back then it was always a little unpredictable. Sometimes they'd be there, sometimes they'd move, sometimes they'd get shut down by the cops lol. Now they've upgraded to a truck and have actual hours, so definitely check their Instagram before heading over because they post their schedule and specials there too. The tripas extra crispy are FIRE. That's easily my favorite thing here and what keeps me coming back. I usually get tripas and asada, then occasionally switch it up with pastor. The asada is good, pastor is okay, but extra-crispy tripas is the move for me. One thing that puts this place higher on my taco list is the sauces. I actually like all three of them, and not every taco spot can say that. Give me good meat AND good sauces and I'm happy. They keep the menu pretty simple but have things like nachos, quesadillas, burritos and different specials. I've seen $5 tortas and discounted tacos depending on the day. Their aguas frescas have consistently been good too. They used to be cash only, which wasn't exactly a problem considering you're literally standing in front of Bank of America lol, but they take Zelle now too. My only question mark is the portion since moving into the truck. On my most recent visit, it seemed like I got noticeably less meat on my tacos than I used to. I've been here enough times without that problem that I'm not holding one visit against them yet, so we'll see if that was just a fluke. Grab your cilantro, onions and sauces and you're good to go. I've been back plenty of times and I'll keep coming back. Extra-crispy tripas, all three sauces and an agua fresca -- that's my order.

I typically order their Al pastor all meat burrito and add cilantro, onions and salsa rojo. It's so flavorful and filling. Sometimes I don't finish the whole burrito.

Taquería Mexico: The Incredible Shrinking Taco…read more I remember when this place had lines out the door. Cinco de Mayo, I'm craving tacos, I show up expecting chaos. There's 3 people ahead of me. Jackpot, right? Wrong. They move so slow that a line forms behind me anyway. 15 minutes later I finally order: 2 carne asada, 2 al pastor to go, onion + cilantro on the side, salsa included. $2.65 each, FYI. Get home, crack open the foil, and... are these tacos for ants? I'm not crazy, so I did what any rational adult does: pulled out a food scale. Three tacos, weighed the meat. All came in at _under 1 oz_. Normal tacos run 1.5 oz. These are missing a full half-ounce of dignity. I usually need 2-3 bites per taco. These? One bite. I tested it. Slid right in like a communion wafer. Flavor? Aggressively mid. Carne asada tasted like it gave up halfway through cooking. Pastor was just... there. Nothing offensive, nothing memorable. Like a beige PowerPoint slide. Sides? Salsa bar? Pickled onions, grilled jalapeños, radishes? Nah. This place is a desert. You get foil, meat confetti, and the crushing realization that $2.65 bought you disappointment. Now I know why the line died. Taquería Mexico isn't even phoning it in -- they hung up. Orange County really is the undisputed champion of mid tacos. I live 1 mile from the LA County line and I'm forced to cross it like a taco refugee. Sad, because I _want_ to support brick-and-mortar spots. But not when they're actively shrinking my dinner. Giving them 3 stars on Yelp because I was raised right. Real score: 4.8/10. The pics on their site are pure fiction from 2012. Don't believe me? I took a pic of the meat on my scale as evidence. CSI: Taco Division. Do better, Taquería Mexico. This is shameful.

Fast, hot, and spicy. I stumbled upon this truck by accident looking for another taco stand…read more Definitely not disappointed with my discovery. I will say the truck itself is placed at a pretty dark corner of the street with some transient people nearby. Just an observation, nothing to do with the food or service. The service was fast and everything went smoothly when ordering, this place takes card if you don't have any cash. I ordered 1 al pastor burrito, 3 lengue tacos, 1 pastor taco, 2 tripas, and 2 cabeza. The order took about 10 minutes to complete even though I was the only customer. The self service bar had everything you needed, 4 separate sauces, cilantro, onion, radish, cucumber, limes, and pickled onions, jalapenos, and habaneros. I took it to go to eat at home and after the 10 minute drive and walk into my apartment everything was still super hot and smelt amazing. The pastor is some of the best I've had in a while, super flavorful and juicy. The lengue was tender, the cabeza almost had a tallow flavor, and the tripas was crispy. All excellent choices in my book. The sauces were spicy, however, in a blind taste test I don't think I could distinguish between any of them. Visually they were distinct but the flavor profiles were all very similar. Still good salsas overall, but if you're a diehard verde vs roja kinda person there really wasn't a difference in my opinion. Definitely worth trying out, hard to stand out too much with the multitude of taco shops/trucks around, but a good choice overall. Al Pastor has to be the highlight of the meat choices. Also Tuesday they offer 1.50 on a select choice of meats. For 1 burrito and 8 tacos my order came out to a little over 33 with tax, good bang for your buck.

Today I decided to try something a little different than my usual spot which is, "Brothers Tacos"…read moreon beach as well. I want to start by saying that I'm annoyed that they messed up my order and I got skimped my three tacos. I ordered 10 for me and my wife to share and they only gave me 7 of them (and yes I know, I should've checked before I left but long day and I was hungry.) I live about 10-12 mins away but if you know the traffic on beach and could've picked it up , $2.50 tacos to drive back there wasn't worth and it I just took the loss. Taste wise, they're okay nothing wow about it but they were dry and I'd also skip the horchata as well since it was watered down.
