Chicken taquitos!
Conrad A.

So I've been here enough times to tell you what's good and what ain't! Food: the best meat I've found on the menu by far is the pork Carnitas, and it's the only one I'll get there now as it's their most flavorful option and why it's getting four stars instead of three. I generally get it in the Macho burrito or as a the plate option with beans and other fixings with tortillas. The chicken taquitos are also really good! The tacos, and fajitas are average. They don't always give you limes for the tacos ether. Pollo Asada plate pretty dry stringy chicken. I find the steak(asada) options and some of the other chicken(pollo) options to be thin, dry, chewy, and not very flavorful. The sauce preference is going to be up to you, but I find the green sauce to be a lot more flavorful than their red sauce! Service: Average. Ambiance: old school booth style seating, a few interesting paintings. There are a lot of really average or below average Mexican places around that all do like one thing ok/well. I think here it's the Pork Carnitas meat.

Street tacos at El Ranchero are the best in the region. Their only potential rival is the Taco Gonzales food bus on sugar City.

Having lived in California for over 70 years I like a good Taqueria and this is the best I've sampled in Idaho so far.

A Rexburg hole in the wall. Located on Rexburg Main St, you can miss it even if you are trying to…read morefind it. I have never been inside the location, just used the drive through. There normally isn't a line, and if there is, the service is pretty quick. All of the food is good and authentic. They do use more potatoes/fries than normal - but hey! It's Idaho! My favorite thing to get is the Carne Asada fries. Base layer of fries, slices of Carne Asada, sour cream, onions & tomatoes. It is a popular rexburg favorite. I love heat so I add hot sauce when I get home. I'll also throw in a Horchata and a few churros ($1 each). My biggest observations are; 1. The Carne Asada was a bit fatty this last time I went. My husband didn't think it was a problem, so maybe it was just me. 7/10 2. The Horchata was just watered down for my taste. Still tasted amazing! I give it 8/10. 3. CHURROS ARE PERFECT! 10/10 Overall, short a star- it wasn't perfect, but still a favorite, we will be going back soon.

Casual Counter Service Restaurant. The restaurant had plenty of tables and looked pretty clean…read more Honestly, I was not impressed by Casa De Ochoa. We were here on a Monday during a busy lunch rush. Normally, I am understanding of this if the food and service were good, but this was not the case! The service was also awful. The woman working at the counter was so snarky. I asked how big the tacos were to determine if I needed order 2 or 3. She wasn't friendly at all! I get it, there was a line behind me, but I didn't need the attitude. The cherry on top was how the tacos took 20+ minutes to come out and they were cold and unseasoned. Unfortunately, the steak tacos were mid at best, and pretty pricey ($3+ per taco). Several tables had their orders missed or forgotten as well.

Last Thursday, April 16 we went to dinner as a family of five to your Rexburg location. We arrived…read moreat 6:45 PM. We were seated in a booth and our servers name was E.... We waited about 20 minutes before receiving water, chips and salsa, we also ordered queso. After order was finally taken food came out for all family members except me. I reminded Evelyn that I ordered a protein bowl she went back to the kitchen to see what happened but didn't return to tell me until 20 minutes later. By now, my family has eaten most of their food and Evelyn tells me the paper fell behind something in the kitchen so my bowl was never made. I ask Why it wasn't made when she went back to find out because it's been 20 minutes since she went looking for it. She asks if I would still like it to be brought out, I say yes , bring it in a to go box because my family is now done eating. Fast forward 15 minutes, Evelyn comes over and asked if it's OK for her to just take my meal off the ticket. Thinking she's going to bring my food out and comp it but no, she means just eliminate like I never ordered! I ask, so I'm just not eating and she replies, "I can have to kitchen make it now if you'd like" - are you kidding me?!! Manager came over to say sorry. Not hey, let me comp some meals or let me hurry and make for you. Just, sorry. I was absolutely floored! We went out to eat at a restaurant, but after an hour and 45 minutes I never got to eat. It's so crazy it's laughable, I was angry and so hungry! This was the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant in my 50 years on earth. I'm sure E.... Is a nice girl but it was a disaster! I'm still floored at what happened! We had to flag down someone else to refill chips. Had to flag down someone else to refill waters. I grew up in Logan, Utah, and loved going to café Sabor. This experience was unbelievable!! They say they care about service, however I texted to this number and never heard back. So, yelp it is!
