The Al pastor chilaquiles were perfectly balanced, with tender, flavorful pork. Every bite was delicious, not heavy or overdone, just genuinely good cooking. The atmosphere adds a lot, too.

Got the asada fries that were not as filling, but at a reasonable price point.

Love the mariachi music in the background and the bright lights that really woke you up. We needed that as we were about to drive back home almost an hour more. I like that the bathroom is big, too. Very spacious restaurant and would go here again if I need a place that opens late for decompression from a high-energy event

We ordered a BRC burrito and Lengua tacos. Both were very good. They make the corn tortillas to order and the Lengua was cooked great, nice and tender. The beans and rice were very good too. The service was kind and friendly. I love the pictures on the walls of past Mexican movie stars with the El Antojo name placed somewhere in the photo. I highly recommend this place.

I ordered the chicken birra tacos cooked extra crispy with a side of rice and guacamole sheesh!! I felt like I was transported back in time as a kid enjoying Mexican food in El Paso Texas. Everything's bite was good! Rice was flavorful and moist. This spot is a must if you live in Lakewood area! So Good!

From the outside, it looks like there's no dine-in, but they actually have tables and chairs inside, plus bar stools outside. Service was quick, and the server was courteous. I ordered the carne asada burrito--typical large size. I've had Mexican burritos in different states and countries, and this one stands out. I liked the moist, warm feel. It tasted freshly prepped with freshly cooked ingredients. Giving it 4 stars. Only downside: the parking lot is tiny. If I come back and can't find a spot, I'd be pissed. We parked at the store next door, even though it was clear we weren't welcome to. Still did it anyway. Highly recommend they invest in more parking spaces. Food's worth it, but parking needs an upgrade.

Despite the small line, there was barely any wait. There's a small table with a few stools if you'd like to eat outside, but I'd say this is mainly a takeout place.

Honestly these are very good tacos, 7.8/10 definitely getting them again if I'm ever craving tacos.read more

I had written a review on the original location. I heard they sold the place. We stopped by here…read moreafter many years of being away... and wishing, missing this food badly. This is the best burrito in all of Tacoma/Lakewood!!! I tell everyone to try them. People don't know what they are missing, because they are just getting pupusas. Who would think they would have great burritos. So, these are not like any other burritos, because they are not Mexican. They use their delicious black beans, their white rice with a few little veg, sour cream, onions, cilantro, you can get really good chile sauce if you want it spicy. The sauce is so good. No cheese... can you believe it? Cheese is not even needed. You can get chicken or carne asada, or like we got, no meat and they will add avocado slices. I really wanted no meat, and platano frito added. This is what we used to get, and it's great. They should add a no meat option to the menu, and also the platano option. Everyone that loves unique delicious burritos, come check this place out. The guy that took my order was friendly, and even made our burrito half no cilantro. Thanks! They get busy.

When I pulled up I saw the rating for the restaurant was "OKAY" I should have turns around then! Ya'll I was so disappointed with this food. First, the rice tasted like it was old like it was in the freezer and reheated. The guacamole looked old and had no flavor and big chunks of onions. Next, the protein tacos had the best taste but, again had an old taste to it. Lastly, the burrito tasted and I am not exaggerating like some type of cleaner. Whatever, that taste was I couldn't even swallow the bite I took. I am literally sitting here praying that I do not get food poisoning. I don't know if we caught them on an off night. I see all other reviews saying it was great but, for me personally I will never come back here. The staff was friendly and that goes a long way but, I hope they improve their food and receive a better rating one day.

Love the dark aesthetic and chill vibes. Everyone was friendly and food was excellent. My favorite dishes are the rib eye tacos and birria beef tacos. Rib eye steak was tender and had a hint of that char grill flavor. The birria tacos and consomé was also really flavorful. We enjoyed the tequila flaming fajita and the mini flame show as well lol. The chicken and shrimps were good but similar to my experience at the South Center location, the beef was really chewy (like over cooked). I also think they served way more veggies compared to meat proportions for their fajitas. My Dad got the burrito especial with grilled chicken and it was huge! He thought it was alright and got sick of it pretty quick because of how much rice and beans there were. We also ordered the margarita flights which were served in these cute mini glasses. I thought the pineapple coconut had the strongest alcohol taste whereas the passion fruit-guava and pina azul tasted like juice (I'm not a big drinker so I thought it was perfect). The pina azul tasted similar to a flat Baja Blast from Taco Bell with a hint of alcohol. Overall, we enjoyed our experience here. The only negative thing is we made a reservation at 8:00PM and came early at 7:30PM; at check in, they said at first we could get in sooner since we arrived but then quickly was told to actually wait until our reservation time (and that's totally fine and makes sense since we reserved for 8PM!!). I was just confused because the group that were walk-ins waiting got to go in before us. There wasn't anyone else waiting for a table and by the time they sat us, turns out there was plenty of open tables available... I just thought they'd want people to be seated sooner if they've arrived and had tables available since it was already 8PM and they close at 9PM lol.

Our server was attentive and kind, and the food was timely and hot! Overall the flavors were not the best thing I've ever had. Overall, it was bland and under-seasoned by quite a bit. The sauces do much of the work here, making the food ok, but not something I'd crave enough to go out of my way for it. We really wanted to love this place, and we will likely come back and try again, because every restaurant has off days and it may have just been the dish I ordered. Looking forward to trying it again soon, but until then, 3 stars for ambiance and service... hope to add more stars the next time we visit!
