    Al Pastor, Pollo, and Asada tacos
    Gerry D.

    I've eaten their food in the past before but this is my 1st time actually coming here and ordering. It's kinda hidden on Mission Blvd in the city of Montclair but it's also kind of a gem.. it's a cool little spot to eat when ur hangry for some tacos. Great service from the staff & delicious foods.

    I stop by here a lot on my lunch breaks. It's one of the better taco spots in Montclair. Food is tasty, reasonably priced, and service is fairly quick. They recently added outdoor seating too which is nice. Usually my go to at any taco place is carne asada but the al pastor here is so good! It has small pieces of pineapple in it but it's not overly sweet or anything.

    Al Pastor Tostada

    Thought I should give an update since it has been a while since I reviewed this place. Still one of my favorite Mexican food places to go to around the area. In 5 years there is much change indoors, and they do also have outdoor seating if anyone prefers that as well. The food here I can usually say is pretty good.. I just think sometimes depending on who is preparing the food, it could be inconsistent. For example I ordered Al pastor tacos (which are really good btw), it didn't have any onions or cilantro, but the previous time it would have it. I would say just to try to ask for certain things just to double check you have what you need. One sad update is that they no longer sell tostadas anymore.. or at least the person that took my order told me that. This was one of my favorite items here and i am really sad they took it out.. I would still recommend this place. Just make sure if you order from the phone that you ordered at the right location since they don't only have one location. Until next time!

    Closed 30 minutes before the time they should be closing. Left without food. They saw me walk up and they all decided to walk out and laugh.

Not terribly inventive Mexican given what's out there in DTLA or even OC but kudos for attempts at menu expansion! I do think the guacamole is really good, the mezcal offerings are awesome, the decor is upscale and Happy Hour pricing is worthwhile. I find this restaurant very loud however. Because of that, I booked outside seating on OpenTable for Cinco de Mayo for drinks at 6:30 for 4 of us. We arrived at 6:25. We were notified that they were running behind, but still were not seated at 7... we were told there was no outdoor seatings coming up in the near future but they could honor our reservation shortly at an indoor table... but unfortunately it was club-decibel live music for the holiday so we went elsewhere. I do feel that managing holiday crowds and reservations is a reasonable expectation for a restaurant of this caliber/ price point. Recommend as a local option only but with a few caveats, not my top choice.

This place was packed and for our table of 6, we had to wait about 45 minutes. Pro tip (call ahead, you'll be happy you did). But we walked around the cute town and came back with a table waiting for us. To start, I had to try the iconic salad. My mom and her friends raved about how yummy the salad was and I have a sneaking suspicion why. That bad boy is packed to the brim with so much cheese. But yes it was totally yummy. My favorite part is they bring you a whole squirt bottle of vinaigrette dressing. Yes please! I totally understand the hype. The rest of our meal was ok. We got the fajitas which were seasoned great and the tortilla soup was nice. Drinks were totally great! I got the jalapeno margarita and white peach sangria (which had a little fizz - totally appreciated) Pleased with our visit to Espiau's!
