    SO SO GENEROUS INDEED
    Beth P.

    food is unbelievably delicious and authentic highly recommend best bbq slab & tacos big plus is the very friendly owners too from another business owner rainbow cleaning systems

    Birria tacos
    Timothy F.

    Coming here there can be little to no parking and it is in an awkward area right next to Travis base fence border. As soon as you step in the fan is blowing, the air is humid, and there truly is no sense of cleanliness. It reminds me of Filipino oriental stores that I still go to, so it is a home like feeling. If I eat out I want something different, not to feel like I'm home, or else I would have stayed home. I can not complain about the service because the staff is always nice. Now for the food. I have to say the food has not always be on my side when I come; maybe it's always like that at this point. I eat here whenever my friends want Mexican food, however I like the one closer to the base entrance, they have an all you can eat salsa bar with so many selections, and it is free too! And free water cups with ice! This place does not have that! Disappointing! On top of that the food here is over priced, always dry, and salty. I am so close to turning my friends' offer down if they choose to eat here again. There is better and cheaper Mexican places to eat. Sorry but some things have to change..

    Super Burrito

    The Super Burrito was alright but it was kinda little salty, it was really huge I think the tortilla wrap was like a 2XL.

    Torta Cubano
    Emily L.

    We were near Travis AFB and happened to see a BBQ place so we stopped. This spot is a little out of the way but so worth your time, go. It's a small spot with indoor and outdoor tables for folks, stand up and order and sit down and they bring you food. We got a cheese quesadilla, a torte Cubano, three taco plate and a quesabirria plate plus some chips and salsas. The food started rolling out about two minutes after we sat down no lie. Tacos were big, handmade tortillas and filled with meats. Al Pastor hits, get it. The quesadilla was also massive and stuffed with cheese, perfection. Chips are handmade, they were still warm and the salsas were excellent, ask for the hot red salsa, trust. The Torta Cubano is not your typical torta, it had like every meat in the kitchen plus an egg. It was hella filling and hella tasty. The quesabirria tacos were a slam dunk, crispy chewy and cheesy. The consumme was so flavorful I wanted to drink it. Family run. Family owned. Family recipes. Delicious. I forgot to say the people who work there are so nice. It was like my friends mom Paz was making me lunch, very family friendly.

    Fuuuuu-kiiiiiing DELICIOUS! I love their food. After looking for a great taqueria I came across this gem. It's soooooo good. The employees are great. Haven't really checked out the restaurant because we're always ordering to go . Highly recommend!!!!!

    Pork ribs plate - so much meat!
    Gonzalo S.

    We stumbled onto this taqueria when we were looking for BBQ near Travis Air Force Base. There is a BBQ sign on top and that's cause they're in the old location of CJ's BBQ which closed down. But that BBQ sign was a blessing cause the Mexican food here is some of the best I've had. Since we were craving BBQ, they had pork ribs which we couldn't pass up once I saw they were being grilled outside on what I assume is the old CJ's setup. And once I saw the sign for birria tacos I could not pass those up either! Both were delicious and while the pork ribs were great, I really have to give it to the birria tacos. So tender and flavorful on the inside, while the tacos are grilled so it's crispy on the outside. The service was super friendly, very much a mom and pop stop, the portions were huge and prices were on point for all the delicious food you get. We got both the ribs plate and birria tacos plate and you can see for yourself how huge the portions are. It could easily feed 4+, so with just 2 of us, we had plenty of leftovers for 2nd lunch! This place is kind of out of the way, but is totally worth the trip. I can't wait to go back and get more birria tacos!

    Carnitas Quesadilla with rice and beans
    Jodie T.

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon craving some Mexican food with some friends and it was really good! I ordered the carnitas quesadilla and of course a birria taco. The meat was nice and juicy, well seasoned and loved the rice and beans. The service was nice and friendly and I believe that it was just a husband and wife duo cooking and serving guests so good job on them for holding it down (: The restaurant was clean, no complaints from here really. I'd definitely eat here again (:

    Al pastor taco plate
    Antoinette C.

    A solid 4 stars!!! After eating my way through Santa Clarita, I came back to NorCal craving good Mexican food. All the usual spots had gone down hill since COVID, so I u needed to find something new and reliable. This place caught my eye because of their logo. It reminded me of a belt buckle my mother once had from New Mexico, so I knew that this was a good sign. After reviewing their menu and photos on Yelp, we rolled up to order. We got chicken nachos for the kids, a quesabirria plate for me and an al pastor taco plate for the hubs. The kitchen was hotter than Hades, and while it was 90 degrees outside, we opted to sit outside and watch planes land on base. The food came out quickly, service was friendly and everything was piping hot. Once home, we quickly ate half the nachos before even sitting down. They were that good. The chicken was tender and moist, the chips grueso and crispy and the tomatillo salsa was perfect on top. The beans and rice plates had great flavor as well. I preferred the quesabirria to the Al pastor. The al pastor had an odd, sour, almost vinegar flavor and it was off putting to me. I will definitely come back for the nachos!

    Birria

    Lacking the intense flavor im searching for. But the portions are huge!! Location way way way in the back of Fairfield. Next to the Airforce base. If you see a tattoo shop...you're in the right place lol

    Birria Taco Plate
    Sarai L.

    I'll be honest, I was a bit skeptical because it's right outside the base and looks a tiny bit sketchy... but one bite of the Birria tacos and I can't wait to go back and bring visitors. The Birria tacos were SO good and fairly priced too. $12 for a plate of two with beans, rice, salsa and the taco dip. Plus, the tacos were HUGE. It wasn't some tiny taco for for buck it was a two giant tacos! In fact, I only ate one and felt good normally two would be good though if you have a bigger appetite like I normally do. If you live on base or even don't, TRY this place! I brought my second taco home to my husband yesterday and he is already asking if we can go back today! Haha! Also, my friend got a burrito the size of her head for $12, too! Seems high for a burrito but it was loaded with everything and big enough for two meals.

    Super burrito
    Austin G.

    This place is a hidden gem! Really good food for a very fair price. It's a local mom and pop spot and they do such a good job. If you're looking for Mexican food this is a great spot to check out. It's right next to Travis so if you work on base this is an excellent lunch spot. I ordered the super burrito and it was great. It was also massive so if you don't want a huge lunch then maybe get something a little smaller. 4.75 stars

    Birria Taco time!!
    Teresa T.

    Our middle daughter Mya heard about Birria Tacos and went on a mission to find them. How did we miss this all our lives!!! Pure deliciousness is what We just experienced!! This place is small and and quaint but don't let that fool you. They pack a mean punch of a menu with food you must have in your life!! Beware that green sauce will give you just enough heat to confirm your existence. We will be back, much love !!

    Queso Birria Rice Plate
    Mo S.

    Since I walked in I was greeting by a man and a woman. Jesus the man at the shop Made me feel just at home. Even went through the menu with me I got the queso birria rice plate All I can say is WOW!!! Made with nothing but love. I eat a lot of Mexican restaurants but this has to be top 3 in my book. Gotta love mom & pop shops. I highly recommend trying this. It's dangerously GOOD!

    Is this business located on the Air Force base? Do we have to go through the base check points to access it or is it just near the base?

    No check points, just across from the Air Force base.

    Does the Birria tacos come with the broth to dip?

    Yes! It's delicious

    We tried them once before and our food wasn't amazing, but was good enough to try again…read more Our second visit we ordered 2 wet chimichangas,a beer and a ranch water. When ordering my husband asked about chips and I pointed out that the menu says 1 basket is included and the cashier nodded. When our food came my husband asked for our chips and the guy said we had to order them and they charge for them. My husband reminded him that he asked when ordering and I again referenced the menu saying 1 basket is included,he said the policy changed and there was a sign on the wall somewhere. My husband had asked for his chimi to have red sauce and I had asked for mine with green, they both came mixed with both sauces on them. The red sauce wasn't very good and it was weird being mixed. My chimi wasn't very well cooked,kinda doughy in the middle. We didn't get a receipt so we couldn't reference the amount we were charged for each thing,but by menu prices it should have come out to about $55. The amount they charge was $80. $80 for 2 chimichangas,a beer and a ranch water and No chips??

    May the 4th be with you has passed so I decided to celebrate Cinco De Mayo here! It was a good…read morechoice!! Walking in, I was immediately greeted with smiling and welcoming vibes from the ladies at the front and told to take a seat wherever I'd like to sit. The hit for me is that MENUDO is available on a non-weekend! I've been craving it and when I ordered it (on a Tuesday), I hoped it would be fresh and it was! The broth was savory and flavorful as is but with the added oregano, dried peppers, onions, and cilantro to my liking- it just made it even better! The best part was that you can either order it with pata or no pata. Shoooot, you don't have to ask me twice! I said I want the pata hahahaha that with tender and not overcooked tripe was just what I was wanting! If you love menudo, this is a place I'd recommend and go to get it regularly. The MICHELADA MARISCADA is tasty! It's a mixture of seafood in a sweet and tangy sauce. For those who do not like spice, this is a great option. I was with someone who doesn't like spicy food and isn't a big fan of Mexican food but MAN! she killed the entire plate! So now we have a place that we both can really enjoy together. Will be back!!

    The Highs: The chicken taco was pretty darn good. I enjoyed it. The shell has a nice crunch to it…read more The chicken was seasoned well My friend enjoyed her el pastor tacos as well. The chicken quesadilla really set it off for me as well. It was flavorful, nice portion size and I enjoyed the dip that came with it also. The Lows: The food was kinda expensive. It was about $60 for a to go order of 6 tacos and a quesadilla and a drink. While the food was good, not sure if the price was worth it considering all of the other Mexican food options nearby. Also, the tacos didn't come with any sides (rice, beans, etc.) which was unfortunate for the price. The In-Between: We found this place on Instagram based on a video review someone did. The parking was a little tough. The service was cool for our to go order.
