I've been coming here since they opened over three years ago. Their tacos are lackluster and just aren't that good, go to Bean Me Up for a better street taco, and their burritos are always greasy and are overpriced for the size. Their wait times are ridiculously long even when no one is there. However the one saving grace they had was their carne asada fries. When they opened it cost $9.75, now it costs $19.89 which is a price increase of about 115%. Now I'm not blind to the fact that the cost of food has risen about 24% since 2020 but that hardly justifies gouging people the way they have. It's a shame I had high hopes for this place and it's become a real dud. read more

Tehachapi doesn't have any great taquerias - that I am aware of. I sure miss them from NorCal. Tacos ES is about as close as I can come locally. Especially, just an old school carnitas burrito (they grill the tortilla thank goodness) pintos, rice, onions and cilantro. I especially enjoy the green salsa. Probabably the best option in town for decent taco/burritos. I loved the Dole Whip, but they stopped serving rencently - Darn! read more

Have been wanting to try this place and since we were here for shopping we came in to get some lunch. I got 3 tacos, one Pastor, one Carne Asada and one Chorizo. Bobbie got the nachos with Carne Asada. I added cheese to all my tacos. Just to be upfront these are street taco sized so if you're expecting larger tacos you might want to get a couple extra. When our food came they didn't have cheese on them, not a big deal as they gave me some, but if the ticket says cheese then there should be cheese on them. Other then that they were all amazing. The chorizo was my favorite followed by the asada. Not that the pastor wasn't great, just the other 2 had more flavor. Bobbies nachos were huge, lots of meat and melted cheese onions and cilantro. Overall this was a great lunch and we will be back in the future. Highly recommended. read more

The only reason they got 2 stars was because the employees were all so nice. We tried all the different meats in the tacos, added cheese & no onions, nothing special. Also got a chicken & cheese quesadilla, nothing special. I will say that the quesadilla was filled well, however it was extremely greasy. The red sauce is flaming hot the the other was mild. I won't be in a hurry to go back & it most certainly isn't worth the 58 minute wait. I will continue to frequent Bean Me Up, so much better. Sorry, I REALLY wanted to like this place. read more

See all

This place should be called Tacos inferior worst place ever the menu is so pathetic best thing on menu are the French fries. The size of the tacos is an insult to anyone buying them. First and last time I ever step foot into another tacos INFERIOR! It's a embarrassment to Mexican food. read more

Wow, 5 star for this place! Their mission statement is so true. The love and quality is apparent. The birra tocas, rice, bean, salsa and agua de melón are authentic and delicioso! My husband and I would definitely come back and highly recommend... You give them a try! Sorry, we didn't take pictures of our food, all I captured was my almost gone agua de melón. read more

Definitely not worth the wait. We waited over an hour in line expecting good food. The food was definitely not authentic. They use can nacho cheese for their Nachos. The quality of meat was poor. Will never come here again. read more

What can I say..Good tacos and quesa birria..nothing fancy but it works!! If u want something fast yet still good this is the place for you

They have mice and vomit in the corner of the mens room. There workers handle cash then make food with the same gloves on. There managers speak rude about me in Spanish thinking I don't understand . They also serve plastic in my burrito. read more

Food is pretty authentic and very well tasting. The bad reviews I'm pretty sure have to do with the location. The people out here prefer "Del Taco".....lol read more

I don't know why I keep giving this place a chance... every time we order here for work they give me the wrong order. I have ask for birria tacos and they give me carnitas. I know birria is made from beef and carnitas from pork, the is a meat difference. I can't waste time coming back to tell them they got my order wrong. I will have to take my business somewhere else. This is the 8th time it happened. read more

Great tacos. Have to try the Cabeza (beef cheeks). Excellent burritos. Red sauce is HOT. Green sauce is flavorful (not hot). Would love to see a red sauce with medium heat as well as some pico de gallo. Long lines for now because they are new, but it seems to move quick. read more

Okay I tried this place so I thought their taco truck in Lancaster is bad with their dried up tacos the salsa was okay but this place is worse how can it get worse I don't know it's pretty sad that taco Bell's better than this place it's supposed to be Mexican tacos no salsa no guacamole the worst tacos I've ever had read more

Service could be better but, cmon, you'd do the same thing if u made like $2 an hour. Let's be honest. Food is good, better than good even. 5 star. read more

Generally good. The meat was good. Had the Asada. Spicy sauce. Counter person was attentive. Beans and rice good. Marked a star lower because it just was not that clean, was quite disheveled, considering there was no one here. Needs adults less teenagers running the show. read more

I love Tacos El Superior! Good flavor, decent prices. The wait time can sometimes be long, and sometimes the employees don't know how to make what I order, but they always make things right if something is done incorrectly. It's my favorite place to go! read more

Had the quesabirria tacos and they were soooo good! The service was also great!! Food was freshly made and came out pretty fast

Simple order, 3 tacos , French fries and a drink. It took FOOREEEEVER!!! I had to check on my order, the girl then opened up 5 foil wrapped tacos then decided mine was ready. She then informed me the strawberry drink went bad. Why wouldn't they inform me when I ordered? Then she said they would check in the back to see if they had more. I finished my food and she never let me know. Tacos were soaked with grease. No napkins were available to wipe my hands, they give them with your greasy tacos but failed to give them to me. This place is a bucket of suck. Won't be back. read more

I felt sick 90 min after eating here :( Nice staff and clean restaurant. But the chicken burrito I had was not very appetizing but I wouldn't be writing this review had I not gotten pretty bad stomach pains shortly after eating here. I should note my wife also had the chicken burrito and was fine. read more

This is the first time that tacos have made me sad. Flavorless, cold, and dry and presented with as much love as a rolled up diaper.

Best takeout Mexican food we have in town. Really good flavors. Tacos are small but surprisingly satisfying.

I see other reviews that say this place is going downhill. I agree. Sadly. This place started off great. Love their burritos. And their red salsa is outstanding. Unfortunately my last couple of visits have been less than desirable. The service is friendly, but not good. Last time, they didn't give me salsa at all. The time before that, they left out a taco. Today I waited 35 minutes in their drive through. We talked at length about salsa. Then they gave me 4 small containers of salsa that were each less than 25% full. They seriously looked used. It was to the point I could not trust these were not someone's leftover salsa. So I wasn't going to eat any of it. I had been wanting to try their Al Pastor burrito. It was decent but I had it without salsa. :-( Unlike other reviews, I think the food is still good. But it could be a 5-star place. When you consistently goof up my order. You consistently provide me a bad experience. A burrito without salsa would be like a cheeseburger with no bun. It's not the same thing. I think I'll drive the extra 3 minutes and head to Taco Samich the next few times. read more

Tacos El Superior - It looks like they gave me used salsa ?? My guess is it's not used, but why fill them less than 25% ? - Mexican Near Me - Tehachapi, California

very very very bad customer service, the cashier was really rude she's the one with blue glasses. they are very short staffed my order took 1 hour just for a burrito... I DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE read more

Tacos El Superior is DELICIOUS! Their burritos really hit the spot! I appreciate the quality of meat that they use. It's not all the fatty yucky parts of the carne, it's good meat! The people working there are very friendly too! read more

TEHACHAPI LOCATION: The employees have two speeds. Slow and stop. Customer service is severly lacking and they cannot count. Three combos = 3 burritos + 3 fries + 3 drinks. It's not rocket science! Items were missing in the order, which is surprising considering how freakin long it took to get the food. Went back to the restaurant & I waited a good 3-4 minutes before any of the employees acknowledged I was at the register, yet I made eye contact with each one. No apologies for the missing items or for my inconvenience. One employee asked another to get the missing items, he said OK, but nothing happened. I continued to wait. Drive thru orders were being filled and no one was doing anything to correct my order. Needless to say, after a good 15 min of my time wasted, cold and severly over priced greasy food, our family will never go back. Its a shame because this place used to be great when they first opened. We will be sticking with Bean Me Up from this point forward. Their customer service is always spot on, their food always fresh and hot and we have never had items missing from our order. Ever. read more

Birria was so dry and looked as though it was squeezed into little logs of ick. Ordered consomé and received a bowl of straight grease. Husband ordered the burrito and it was very tiny filled with mostly rice and beans, barely any meat. Hopefully Lancaster's doesn't change. I miss the food truck. read more

Yesterday the service was horrible. It took more than 30 minutes to get our order from drive up. After 20 minutes I had to go in and stand there while they prepared my order, which they hadn't started. Food was fine. There's a reason it's called 'fast food'. I like your food, but doubt I'll be back. read more

Food is awful! Used to be decent when they first opened but now it's just gross. Grease tacos, tortillas break when you try to pick up your taco, super bland overall horrible! Save your money and take it over to Kikis Tacos they are legit and authentic not tacos shitperior. read more

I have now acquired the diagnosis of insanity - doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. That's me returning to this restaurant. I have visited this restaurant at least four times and have YET have them get the order correct. Worse, the food is pretty close to terrible. The only worst place is Don Perico. Leaving folks who want good Mexican food to seek out that yummy goodness anywhere but here. read more

Tacos "inferior". The absolute worst excuse for a taco I've ever experienced. Greasy beyond belief. I wish I could give them a ZERO.

New in town and so incredibly glad to find this place!!! Fresh, tasty and the kind of Mexican food I like...authentic!! My normal "go to" elsewhere is a tried and true famous chain called King Taco. El Superior rivals them easily! Carne asada is tender and delicious and the salsas are yummy. The folks working are super nice and the portions for burritos and tacos is very good. This is my new favorite place in town!!! Yay!!! read more

What is going on here??!!! The service now takes about 20 minutes in the drive-thru. The coke always taste flat. I think they are folding or downsizing. Not sure...I still like their tacos so I gave them a bonus star. I just wish they could get more organized. read more

Eat here all the time I love their chicken its amazing also order alot of torts from here . Check it out u won't be disappointed

The food is so damn good! I can't even say one thing is better than the other because it's all bomb! Those Carnitas are so tender and flavorful, the pastor is out of this world and that Asada is top grade, no chewy pieces or toughness I drive from Bakersfield to get my fix and it's totally worth it! Let's get a location or 10 out in the field! Thank you for your amazing customer service and food!!! Oh and you MUST try they agua frescas read more

Awsome food in town i always grab the papas con chorizo burrito the best . Also great customer service from the cashier Darlin shes friendly and great customer service . read more

It's sooo nasty there were rude to my family and just impolite they got my order wrong took forever for them so notice me standing there so I can order read more

The food is really good. I recommend this place! Come check them out. The service is efficient.

This place has to be the worst spot for Mexican food in Tehachapi.I would rather get a taco from Del Taco and exposes myself to horrible diarrhea or foodborne illness, than eat here ever again.Very expensive for mediocre quality food.I knew this place was going to be horrible when, I notice they rip off IN & OUT theme, come on be original!!.How can you have pride in your store when everything is a rip off ,from the menu theme to the building and the uniform they use.Anyways, Don't get me started on the time you have to wait to get your food.Looking forward to the new spot that will replace you guys eventually. read more

Decent taco joint. The drive thru can take some time, it seemed quicker to go inside. Hot sauce was nice. Breakfast burritos are tasty.

This is the first time I come to this location and last time as well. I ordered close to $60 worth of food and almost everything was wrong with my order. From missing tacos, missing burritos, wrong type of quesadilla. I clearly asked the girl in drive thru if everything was in the bag, she said yes. I live 40 minutes away from the place. It's frustrating coming home where everyone is waiting for their food and they don't get to eat because everything is missing or completely wrong. I tried calling at least 10 times as soon as I could but call went straight to voicemail. I have receipt and photos of the order. I will be going the following day to either get my money back or my correct order. read more
