    Carne Asada tacos, beans and rice

    Portion size is not worth the cost of the food. They only serve carne asada and Al pastor tacos - in my opinion those are 2 of the best types anyway. Al Pastor is cooked the traditional way. Tortillas are made from scratch and made to order. The food was flavorful however you get more toppings than the actual meat filling. Rice and beans were tasteless and I'm used to getting a heaping scoop of both but that was not the case here.

    Flavor was ehh.. Only real reason I'm writing this is because for the prices they charge... my tacos are as big as my finger.. what a scam. I strongly dislike taco joints that skimp out this bad on their meat.

    We walked in the staff were extremely friendly. The gentleman asked if it was our first time. He explained the easy menue. They were pretty prompt and informational about what was on their menue. The food came out quick even though it started to get busy. The food was made fresh and the beans were not gritty. (Omg) I love that. Inside was well lit ans there were tv's inside. It was clean and friendly the tables were cozy it was a good vibe.

    If you're looking for real, authentic TJ-style tacos, this is the spot. Tacos Tijuana brings simple, delicious flavors with every bite, and the tortillas hechas en casa are what truly set them apart. Soft, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor, la tortilla can make or break a taco--and here, it absolutely makes it. I'm always going for the asada because I'm a classic like that, but el al pastor and even the veggie al pastor made with mushrooms are puro fuego. Every taco is on point! The staff is super amable, always so helpful, and you can tell they love what they do. The place is clean, organized, and the vibe with the banda music playing is perfect. As someone who misses home (San Diego), Tacos Tijuana gives me that comfort, making me feel like I'm right back in Southern California. Si eres de San Diego o SoCal y andas buscando tacos estilo TJ, no busques más--este es el lugar! And now that they've added burritos to the menu? ¡Uf, una bomba! They're just as incredible as the tacos. Gracias, Tacos Tijuana, for always making me feel like I'm home. ¡Gracias por hacerme sentir que estoy en casa!

    Tried the tortilla with pork. The meat and the flavoring was very good. Corn tortilla was really soft and fluffy, and felt very fresh. The guacamole sauce was good but I'd have preferred the guacamole or avocado instead, which would have made it even better. I wish they had more hard shell corn taco options. Small little place, service was quite fast in terms of the food.

    Extremely small portion of asada on taco. Teaspoon for comparison.

    The flavors were good but the portions were terrible. These are truly the smallest street tacos I've ever had, maybe 1 1/2 tablespoons of meat per taco? I added a picture with a teaspoon to show exactly how small. Also, my interaction with an employee wasn't the best. I didn't realize horchata was an option on this $17 combo, (horchata was priced cheaper than a fountain drink) until after I had put fountain pepsi in my cup. I asked if i could do horchata instead in the same cup. The cashier was persistent in telling me that I was wasting the fountain soda..... the freely accessible fountain with unlimited refills that costs them less than 5 cents per drink. She didn't tell me no, she more so decided to lecture me about wasting the single cup of soda. I would've preferred a firm no over the lecture. It was awkward, she was definitely hoping I'd say never mind. So I stared at her & asked again, 3 more times, can we do that? She finally said fine just this one time. Like girl , come on. My family and I spent well over $50 and I even tipped you for this ridiculously small portion of food. Oh well, we won't be back, there are plenty of other spots with better portions and less lectures.

    Best Authentic Taco spot in the East Valley! It's quick and the service is always great! They serve juices/jugos and their salsas are super tasty and homemade. Their pastor is my favorite and their carne asada is so fresh and tender. If you want authentic street tacos and sides come here! Their quesadillas are best! I could eat just that and would still give this restaurant a 5 staff rating! Three is plenty of seating even though it's a small place. Not great for groups, 6-8 max guests comfortably. It's more of a quick eat and run spot.

    I wanted tacos...I heard that's all this place does so I checked it out. I expected more variety but they only do Carne Asada and Al Pastor....but let's be honest, those are great options so I got 3 of each and I have no complaints! The staff were friendly and they were cleaning up the place after the dinner rush (which I appreciate). It took all of 3 minutes for my order to be ready (if that). The store doesn't offer a whole lot of seating but it was enough for me If you need a taco fix and like limited options, this is a great stop. Healthy portions of meat and I highly suggest the red sauce...great flavor with the right kick to it.

    Any Vegetarian options?

    Quesadillas are about it as far as Vegetarian. Their fresh corn tortillas are very good and would make for a great quesadilla.

Update: the owner messaged me and told me to buy an entire chicken. Uh, maybe put some chicken in the chicken burrito? Update #2: The owner sure does like to argue with the customer back and forth. Now, he proposed that I order from Chipotle instead since they fail to give customer what one paid for. Update #3: The owner still going back and forth with me and now claiming I did not pay for the burritos. Not really sure what he means by that. But here is the screen shot of 2 burritos ordered via DoorDash. This is just wild.

Got the $30 Plato Campechano between 2 ppl (half chicken, half a pound of Carne, flour and corn tortillas, rice, beans from the pot, salsas, grill jalapeños, guacamole, limes, and radishes). Decent amount of food, although the chicken and carne were both a bit dry. I enjoyed the beans and rice, and the additional accouterments. Overall, good flavor and seasonings, just dry protein. Not sure if that would change on a busier day if fresh food was being pumped out, but would be open to checking this place out again!

    Sometimes the best meals happen because your original plan falls through. That was exactly the case…read morehere, and honestly... I'm not even a little mad about it. I ordered the veggie tacos with roasted sweet potatoes (skin on, which was absolutely the right call), pepitas, feta, and all the right toppings. Whoever prepped those sweet potatoes deserves a raise because they were cut into the perfect sized pieces. Every bite had a little sweetness, a little crunch, a little saltiness... it just worked. My dining partner ordered the barbacoa tacos, and I didn't even have to ask if they were good. The involuntary "Mmm..." after the first bite answered that question. Four tacos disappeared in record time, followed by, "I could've eaten two more." That's about as glowing of a review as you're going to get. Now let's talk about these tortillas. Handmade. Corn. Tortillas. Are you kidding me? They're the kind of tortillas that had me question every tortilla I've ever eaten. Soft, fresh, and somehow they manage to steal the spotlight even with everything else on the plate being so good. The chips and guacamole were excellent, too. The chips have to be made in-house and they disappeared at an alarming rate. The salsa that came with them had this smoky, fire-roasted, chipotle flavor that kept me reaching for another chip... and then another... and then suddenly I realized I'd eaten way more chips than I intended. The bottled table salsas deserve their own paragraph because they completely confused me... in the best way. They bring three to the table... a green, a red, and a darker red. I kept tasting them individually thinking, "Okay, these are alright." Then I started mixing them. Game over. On their own, each one was solid. Mixed together? That was the magic. I don't know if that's what they intended or if I accidentally stumbled onto the perfect combination, but from that point on, every taco got the salsa trio treatment. The only tiny hiccup was when we first walked in. We were greeted, asked if we wanted menus, and sat ourselves. We waited for a bit thinking someone would come take our order, only to realize it's actually counter service. Once we figured that out, everything was smooth sailing. Not a big deal at all... just something first-time visitors might want to know. Follow the sign "order here" I also loved the layout. You can actually watch them making the food, which somehow makes the wait even harder because everything smells incredible. Two tacos ended up being the perfect light meal for me. Could I have eaten ten? Absolutely. Those two statements can both be true. Meanwhile, my dining partner polished off four barbacoa tacos and was talking about ordering two more. We only ended up here because another place happened to be closed, and honestly, I'm glad it worked out that way. This ended up being one of those meals we keep talked about on the drive home. Oh and the bathrooms?. I walked in and immediately thought, "Whoa... this is a cool bathroom" The lighting had this pinkish-purple glow that made me feel like I'd accidentally wandered into a trendy lounge instead of a taco shop. I honestly wasn't even sure there was regular lighting in there and I didn't look... because the vibe seemed so intentional. Finally, the music. .. upbeat, dance-worthy, the kind that had me bouncing in my seat while waiting for my food. Between the atmosphere, the lighting, and the music, the whole place had me want to hang out a little longer. Zero regrets. I'll absolutely be back... and next time I'm ordering more tacos.

    So my husband said these are the best tacos he has had and his favorite of any we have had in…read morePhoenix. I felt different. First of all, eating anywhere in Tempe, starts with a frustrating time.... Trying to find parking and having to pay to park. I don't understand why restaurants don't have parking for customers. Idk maybe I don't know where to look. Second, it's hot AF in here. I feel sorry for the guys cooking. It's 105 today and the restaurant is so small, it's probably impossible to keep cool during the summer. Finally, the food. It all tastes very fresh! NO SEED OILS is amazing. I feel like I have won something when I find a restaurant that uses olive oil and beef tallow to cook in. Best corn tortillas I have had for sure. We basically tried one of each taco. (Although some of the tacos we ordered were wrong, so we just kept adding) not a big deal, because they were delicious and we loved them. I felt like the carne was chewy but my husband loves chewier meat. The taco with the marlin was my favorite. And the one that came out kind of like a cheese crisp. It's loud in here and again the space is very small. They do not serve wine at all. But yummy margaritas! The bartender is working solo and working hard! She busted her butt and did an amazing job. And smiled the entire time. She was awesome
