I stopped by Taqueria Mexico because it has been a reliable spot for years and I always enjoy visiting places that feel like true neighborhood staples. This one has been around for a long time and still draws a steady crowd. They used to be open twenty four hours, which was a huge perk, but even now it remains a go to choice for quick and flavorful tacos. I ordered their street tacos, which continue to be some of the best I have had in Orange County. They remind me of tacos I have eaten in Mexico. They are small in the perfect way, two or three bites and you are through the taco, which is exactly what a good street taco should be. The meat has a rich and savory flavor that stands out right away. The red sauce is bold and adds the right amount of heat without overpowering the rest of the taco. The staff here is consistently friendly and welcoming, which adds to the charm of the place. Service moves fast even when they are busy. Inside, the space has that classic street taco shop feel. It can get crowded, especially during peak times. The only thing I would like to see improved is a little more attention to cleaning the tables when the rush hits since you sometimes have to sit at a spot that was not wiped down yet. It is not a major issue but it is the only reason my rating is four stars instead of five. Overall, Taqueria Mexico is excellent and remains one of my favorite spots for authentic street style tacos. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a simple and flavorful meal that feels true to the roots of Mexican street food. read more

Taquería Mexico: The Incredible Shrinking Taco I remember when this place had lines out the door. Cinco de Mayo, I'm craving tacos, I show up expecting chaos. There's 3 people ahead of me. Jackpot, right? Wrong. They move so slow that a line forms behind me anyway. 15 minutes later I finally order: 2 carne asada, 2 al pastor to go, onion + cilantro on the side, salsa included. $2.65 each, FYI. Get home, crack open the foil, and... are these tacos for ants? I'm not crazy, so I did what any rational adult does: pulled out a food scale. Three tacos, weighed the meat. All came in at _under 1 oz_. Normal tacos run 1.5 oz. These are missing a full half-ounce of dignity. I usually need 2-3 bites per taco. These? One bite. I tested it. Slid right in like a communion wafer. Flavor? Aggressively mid. Carne asada tasted like it gave up halfway through cooking. Pastor was just... there. Nothing offensive, nothing memorable. Like a beige PowerPoint slide. Sides? Salsa bar? Pickled onions, grilled jalapeños, radishes? Nah. This place is a desert. You get foil, meat confetti, and the crushing realization that $2.65 bought you disappointment. Now I know why the line died. Taquería Mexico isn't even phoning it in -- they hung up. Orange County really is the undisputed champion of mid tacos. I live 1 mile from the LA County line and I'm forced to cross it like a taco refugee. Sad, because I _want_ to support brick-and-mortar spots. But not when they're actively shrinking my dinner. Giving them 3 stars on Yelp because I was raised right. Real score: 4.8/10. The pics on their site are pure fiction from 2012. Don't believe me? I took a pic of the meat on my scale as evidence. CSI: Taco Division. Do better, Taquería Mexico. This is shameful. read more

We came in four hours before closing hoping to sit down and eat quickly, only to find that half of the restaurant was already closed off, leaving just two tables available for customers. Unfortunately, this seems to happen often. It's incredibly inconvenient for those who want to dine in, especially when it feels like the area is shut down early just so cleaning can be finished sooner. By the time we were ready to order, the few available tables were already taken. Customer service has consistently been lacking. Staff often comes off as rude, rushed, and rarely greets customers, making it feel like they couldn't care less. We used to go out of our way to visit this location, but lately the prices are noticeably higher while the food quality has declined. At this point, I'd honestly rather stop at a taco tent on the side of the road. better tasting food, better quality, and better service. read more

Best street tacos in the OC by far! This place has super fast service and the price is right. That's the only thing I've had here but will try the burrito bowl next time. Parking can be a little hectic at lunchtime so get here early. read more

I've been to this place multiple times and really enjoy the pastor meat there. Overall the food and price are pretty decent. Giving this 2 stars because of 1 working that I've experienced multiple times. Rude and takes attitude every time. The guy seems to hate his job and honestly is ruining the business. Not coming back again read more

I have came here a bunch of times ever since I started dating my boyfriend. He was the one that introduce me to this place. This place is amazing for lunch and dinner. Today, I got the only meat burrito that comes with any meat of choice, beans but I didn't get it today, cilantro and onions, cheese I didn't get it today. They fill up your burrito really good. They also have sauces on the side red sauce and green sauce along with the lemons. I also tried their pineapple juice before and it was delicious. The service was fast & employees are very nice and friendly. The store has a great atmosphere, spacious, and clean. Plenty of parking. I would definitely come back here for their delicious burritos & want to try their tacos as well. read more

2 stars only for flavor. Their tacos and burritos are very good. They just absolutely are not worth $2.40 for a 3-4" taco and $13+++ for a burrito. Been a weekly monthly customer since 1989 (was 2-3x a week when it was affordable for what you ordered) when they opened. Way over priced now. You can't get your own peppers and carrots now etc. read more

Still one of the best in Orange County. Is it better than your favorite taco spot? No cuz you're loyal to your main squeeze. But if you ever have a night off, come here cuz they're open late on weekends. There's parking in the back behind the laundromat if you take that side street. There may be a homeless man sleeping out back to greet ya, but they won't cause any trouble cuz there's always cop cars outside the front (cops love tacos and you'll see them at the best spots) Get whatever flavor you crave, I'm not going to make a suggestion to you cuz you know what you like read more

Okay let's talk Mexican food. This place has been around for a very long time. I used to go here when I lived in Huntington Beach. Has some of the best tacos Street Taco style. On the way back from Irvine today we stopped just happened to be Taco Tuesday and lucked out. Had carnitas tacos Colleen had two El pastor and one asada tacos. This is some of the best street style tacos around always stop by when I can. The burritos are super good also. I'd highly recommend :-) read more

Went back to give these guys another chance and got another tiny burrito for 11.00. I'm sorry but this place used to be the go to and now they just keep raising the prices and giving you less. Sad that this is happening to the local spot. Off to the next taco spot read more

Honestly, I enjoy this place. The burritos are my go to. The salsa is amazing here, which is a make or break for me at certain spots. The prices are reasonable imo, other than the tacos. I would not pay for tacos here, and wish they had a taco Tuesday deal. Other than that, solid spot. read more

This is a hole in the wall taco place and as authentic as you get besides food trucks or street taco stands. They have tacos, burritos, quesadillas with your choice of meat and cilantro, onions and or cheese as a toppings. They used to have an open salsa bar which was great now you have to ask for sauce, jalapeño etc the staff seem reluctant to give them to you. There are not a lot of parking in front and sometimes there is a long line. read more

I used to come here often. But last year I had chorizo tacos and got violently ill. So I'll I wanted to go to the emergency room.

I don't think this place likes black people lol. I walked in to get my usual burrito and the guy looked at me and walked to the back and started drinking water and ignored me. And the other 2 guys at the front also ignored me. I literally had to ask to be served. Would not recommend if you're black. read more

I was driving Uber/Lyft figured I stop and give this shop a chance to grab quick bite to eat. I grabbed 2 asada 2 pastor meat seemed kind of dry and not a lot of flavor on the pastor. Also the staff themselves seemed kind of rude I asked to use the restroom and the lady gave me a nasty look for asking I had been driving all day just had to go in and out since they they still had an hour before closing time. read more

If you are looking for an inexpensive taco, this place has you covered. It was everything I was expecting it to be. Also, super quick! Line was out the door and it only took 5 min to get to the front. Tacos: they were decent, got them plain so I can really taste them, meat was cooked and seasoned well and the tortillas were just the right size. Not big, but also not extremely small. It was a two biter for me lol! Burritos: (not pictured) here is where it lost a star, the tortilla were from Sam's Club. It was the Sam's Club brand so it tasted really processed. I was super bummed since the tacos were so good! Beans and Rice: (Not Pictured) beans were not refried, they were Beans De La Olla. Not my preference, they are still kind of firm and not super mushy so that was a plus. The rice was basic, not horrible but also not super amazing. Over all, I will be back for tacos, not much else. read more

Taqueria Mexico - 10/10 Only Meat Burrito 10/10 Tacos Workers were great and clean restaurants - Mexican Near Me - Westminster, California

Food is okay. Workers need some serious training in people skills. Poor customer service. I asked for 6 tacos and the worker (taller plump gentleman with grayish hair) scoffed. I then asked for a quesadilla and again he scoffed, this time it seemed like he was complaining to his coworker in Spanish. Unacceptable behavior when all I asked was for the man to do his job. If making quesadillas is so difficult then maybe he shouldn't be working there. 1/10 not coming back read more

Absolutely a go to when I'm in HB Been eating here for 15 years Carne asada tacos are bomb and easily packed to go The tortillas they use for the burritos are decent enough so I'll get burritos with light rice and it's perfect read more

The food is great here, but the service can be better! The workers are pretty rude & the only thing I disliked about this place. I hope they can work on being more appreciative to their paying customers! read more

Hands down , one of the most reasonable places to eat Mexican food. The perk of this place is that it is open 24 hours on Friday and Sat! Perfect place right after a late night. Prices are cheap!! The food is delicious!! I recommend this place. They are not stingy with their meats. A burrito is packed with meat, aka Carne asada, etc.. read more

This spot never disappoints. It's been here a long time, so they know what's up! Street tacos and burritos, what more do you want? Maybe Tortas! I wonder why that's not on the menu? But overall, always the same satisfaction, same great taste. It's always tacos de asada and or al pastor for me. Don't forget to ask for zanahorias; spicy carrots, and an horchata: sweet rice water drink. Helps with the heat from the salsa roja and is very delicious. Plenty of seating. Never had to eat standing up, or wait for a table and the music playing is always the vibe. Order is taken and served quick. read more

Taqueria Mexico - Golden Hour - Mexican Near Me - Westminster, California

An absolute late-night gem located in Westminister! Coming from Huntington Beach, my friends and I had food cravings after a late night out and ended up here at 1:00 AM. I usually get fast food at a chain after midnight, so this was a nice change-up. They are only open 24 hours on Saturdays, so check their hours via the Yelp app. Immediately off the rip, my friends were raving about how affordable this spot was compared to other Mexican places; I got their carne asada burrito for about $12. They loaded my burrito with all the toppings I wanted, carne asada, onions, cilantro, cheese, and their mild salsa (I think it was green). Overall very tasty, and I would come back for a night meal! read more

One of my favorite street tacos locations in the HB area. When I started coming here tacos were $0.88/taco. They are to around $2.30/taco now which is a bummer. I always get the carne asada with onions, cilantro and salsa. The red salsa can be VERY hot at times but great flavor. Tell them to go easy or get it on the side. They also have carrots and onions and peppers if you ask them for it. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. read more

Great, authentic tacos. No frills, but who needs them when the Al Pastor tastes this good. There was a line when got there, but it moved really fast. The staff is friendly and quick. I had tacos and a burrito and they were both incredible. The hot sauce was super spicy and flavorful. It doesn't seem like the place you'd sit and eat, but it's quick and easy to grab and go. read more

Tacos are decent but the customer service is the worst especially if your Caucasian. Been there twice in two days thinking maybe it was just a fluke thing but nope just left for my second visit. I ordered 12 tacos, but they would only let me have two bags of carrots Said that I couldn't get more. And that was with a tip. Definitely will not be going there the women are not friendly that weren't there. The men are nicer. Really heckling me on getting some extra salsa as well. When I have guests from out of town that was looking forward to the meal with the carrots and jalapeños on the side. definitely be going to a different Taqueria in the future. I guess it really doesn't matter if you tip them or not. Just not friendly if your skin is not tan. read more

$2.30 for tiny bland tacos. Pretty sure people just love their hours but the food is lacking

I went with a friend of mine who never been to this place before. She ordered cheese quesadilla with a side of rice and beans and I ordered three tacos. The guy who completed our order was flat out rude. He wanted to get my order but I told him we were paying separately but he said, "Yeah, what you want?" I ended up paying for the both of us, but that wasn't the only issue. While we were eating, he and the cashier started talking bad about us. My friend is African American and I was wearing a head scarf for personal reasons. My friend who understands Spanish, went and told the female cashier not to assume that people who don't look like them can't understand the language and we just walked out. Just to be clear, we were polite and I was smiling while ordering, I asked for a cup of water and the cashier almost threw it above the counter, which could have been easily handed to me. I'll never go to this establishment again, some of the food was bland (not my carne asada tacos) but the rice and beans and the customer service is below zero! read more

Communication, no Mgr on site and I'm told a Jessica would be in today. Called, a lady said that it's her first day, no Mgr and hung up. Called again, a guy answered and said that the Mgr would be in tomorrow. I told him that I am returning the food I bought last night in which the meats were all dried up. All he can say is the Mgr will be in tomorrow, no name of a Mgr. Once upon a time this place WAS good. Now, taco bell would be a better choice! No customer service, no Mgr on site, and they can care less! read more

Love this place, it really makes some great food and the prices allow for anyone to come.

Living just up the street, I've easily spent hundreds of dollars at this restaurant. Unfortunately, after my experience on 8-23-25, I will never return and won't recommend this place to anyone again. Earlier today, I stopped by the Starbucks on the corner for coffee before an Angels game and needed to use the restroom. Starbucks gave me the code, but it was occupied, so I walked into Taqueria Mexico, thinking my frequent patronage would be appreciated. When I politely asked the middle aged lady behind the counter for the restroom code, she began to answer but paused when she turned around and saw me. She abruptly stated, "It's for customers only." I explained that I've eaten there many times. She looked at me with a dismissive, skeptical expression that made me feel unwelcome, as if I couldn't afford to eat there. She then muttered something about the code being "on your receipt," clearly refusing to help. While she was not obligated to give me the code, I'm not obligated to give this business any more of my money or referrals. You can lose customers with a single disrespectful encounter, and I hope they learn to treat loyal patrons better in the future. read more

Been coming to this taqueria for 14 years and the taste of the food still the same from 14 years ago. Consistency is the key! We moved 2 hours away but when I'm around the area I can't help myself but to stop by and have a nice good tasting, huge burrito. This place a lot more cleaner now than before and service is always friendly. Will definitely coming back for many more years to come if I'm in the area. read more

We came on a Friday night and no one was ahead of us in line, but the three people behind the counter were having a heated discussion and it was several minutes before one of them turned their attention to us and took our order. The order was promptly made, the other pluses here were the reasonable price for the tacos, also the menu is well focused: tacos and just a few other things-- nice and simple! I thought my chicken taco was tasty, but the Hubby thought his cabeza and lengua tacos were lacking in seasoning. We both had abdominal problems in the night. read more

I've been coming here for a few years now and this place doesn't dissapoint! The tacos are great and affordable along with the burritos and quesadillas. However, the tacos just aren't the same anymore. They've become dry and inconsistent but maybe it's just because of it being near closing time. I ordered 4 tacos, which were Pollo, asada, lengua, and chorizo. All were decent, however their chorizo is excellent and greasy. They all come with your choice of salsa, onions, cilantro, and a slice of lemon. read more
