And that's really all I got, but as simple as it might seem horchata really can be hit or miss and this was absolutely a HIT! I didn't actually order any food, but the gentleman I was sitting next to said his burritos was delicious. I cannot personally review the food, but I can say, for finding a random place off the side of the freeway, it is shockingly a good time sipping on a ice cold horchata while taking in the ambiance of a gas station parking lot, from a little fold up table.

My favorite go to is the carne asada quesadilla. It's always so so good. Sometimes I'll crisp it up at home in the air fryer for a slightly crunchy texture. I always look forward to eating here! Thank you Taco Rico for always staying true to your success

We'd been impressed that Guy Fierri ate here, and the chef is award winning, so we were really excited. Absolutely everything looked amazing, and it was hard to decide what to eat. Then a staffer walked by with food for another table and called out to us which dishes they were! That helped me decide on the Frida Khalo tostadas. My party included two people who haven't eaten at a lot of vegetarian restaurants, and they were very impressed. We all loved our food, it was beautifully presented, and the portions were huge. We also enjoyed the chocolate tees leches cake! This place is doing such an amazing job and I'd recommend to anyone, plant-based or not.

Honestly, I wish I could give Yaquesita a little more, maybe half a star more, because this place definitely has potential. Their flavors are good, but compared to similar restaurants the menu feels a bit overpriced. For a party of three we ended up paying around $100, which felt like a bit much for what we got. The restaurant itself is pretty small with only about 3-4 tables inside, but the patio is a decent size and has a cute vibe. It's actually a nice option on cooler days if you don't mind sitting outside. Some items were better than others. The wet-style burrito was delicious and definitely a highlight. The quesabirrias were good, however the birria felt more like fancier shredded beef. It was missing that rich, spicy, slightly acidic, earthy flavor that usually sets birria apart from barbacoa or traditional shredded beef dishes. The bowl was just okay and had lots of lettuce. It felt more like a salad with a bit of meat, rice, and beans. Honestly, Chipotle does bowls better, and that says a lot considering the price. The nachos were good, but I've had better. Seis Kitchen has amazing nachos to share. That said, it's definitely a place I'd come back to mainly out of convenience, not because one particular item on the menu won my heart. I really do hope they continue refining the menu because the flavors are there and this place could easily become a standout spot. Personally I just think at the total price of my ticket other restaurants should not even have room in my mind during my meal. If you're in the area and looking for a safe bet where everyone will probably find something they like, it's worth giving them a try.

Tried Carne Asada and Pollo both yummy and they come with a small bean taco, that has a smattering of refrieds almost hard to taste bc it's pretty thin but appreciated. At $9.95 they are not nearly as filling as a burrito so it could be an expensive visit to fill up. They are quite cheesy, next time I'd ask for less so the smoky meat shines further. Wish they had whole beans to round out the plate, refrieds only. Didn't try the rice. Salsa Bar is awesome with pickled red onions and Ladles are labeled so you know whatcha pouring haha. Glad to have tried The Qs finally!

The tamales most definitely need to be discarded and replaced.... 1. So so dry; not moist; not fluffy 2. Green corn needed more cheese and more green chile; too skimpy on the ingredients 3.

I was raised in a very conservative food pallet home like many Americans so trying new items like cabeza tacos is a very foreign choice in cuisine. Let me just say I am on a new adventure of respecting restaurants that honor the entire animal by properly knowing how to prepare each and every inch into a world class experience. These cabeza tacos did not disappoint! It was extremely buttery and melted in your mouth! If you do one thing this year, you owe it to yourself to put this place on your 3rd spot routine. The ambiance is so beautiful in this space too! There are beautiful murals inspired by Mexican culture with luchadores wrestling and oversized monarch butterflies, this place is truly a different dimension!

Tender Juanito's had some flavor, but it was VERY dry and tough and had far too much grisle. I just didn't like it at all. I had to force my way through it it was so dry, I dislike dry meat. I want to try a different meat, maybe it'll gain a star there, but for the Carne Asada? Hard pass. The service wasn't great either.
