Best taquitos in Santa Ana and the Aguas to

The Best taquitos in Orange County they're not located 2372 S Birch St Santa Ana, CA 92707 United States and as well they're aguas are so bomb I cannot complain about this place. Good hospitality, and the owner. Great person to meet.

These taquitos taste homemade! They have the right crisp with the perfect amount of filling. I got one of each and they didn't disappoint! I highly recommend eating them there so you can get the freshly made taste. Plenty of parking around the area. They have a few tables around the food truck. I also got the banana horchata which became my favorite flavored horchata! I highly recommend giving them a try if you're around the area.

What a feast!!! Can't thank Rob and the family for such delicious food! The taquitos are cooked to perfection! You can get 2/3/6 taquitos and you can mix and match. My favorite is the shredded beef, but they do chicken, bean and cheese and chorizo and papa. The cups are perfect that the taquitos come in, no mess! . You get a nice base of their green salsa along with cabbage and queso fresco/cotija on top! You can also wash it down with their aguas frescas , which they have pepino/limo, watermelon and then my two favorites the strawberry or banana horchata!!!! Grabbed some jalapeño poppers while you're there also, and don't forget to get a side of the habanero dipping sauce as well!!! If you haven't gone, you're missing out

Opening up just recently, I had the opportunity to come and try out the food here. The owners were both very friendly and have been in the business before! Lovely people to talk to, both are so very hard working and deserve our attention and money. After coming home it was very clear to us that the food was hand-made. The taquitos' shells were imperfect, hand-rolled, and colored with pride in their Mexican heritage. The food was so clearly made with love, you'd mistake it for being home made. And thankfully it tasted just as good too. My personal favorite filling are the potatoes and cheese!

I've been rocking with Taquitos La Chata since their 2018-2019 pop-up days, when their taquitos first went viral. That's when I met Rob and Raylene--the hardworking, kind-hearted husband-and-wife team behind it all. From the start, everything they've made has been filled with love and consistency. Now they're back with a brand new truck on Grand St in Santa Ana--one of their OG locations--and still delivering some of the best food around. The taquitos are perfectly crispy, the green sauce is a staple, and the jalapeño poppers are fire--especially the chorizo and potato one, my personal favorite. Don't sleep on the aguas frescas either--the strawberry horchata is homemade and incredibly refreshing. And if you like heat, their habanero sauce is no joke--spicy, yes, but also super flavorful. Not just heat for heat's sake. La Chata's journey hasn't been easy, but their comeback is a reminder that heart, hustle, and great food always win. Go show them some love--you won't regret it.

Aswome people!! Love the beef ones! Definitely going again!!!!

Looking for some taquitos , definitely have to try this place out! They got excellent prices and the green taquito was astonishing!!! Employees were friendly and nice!! Great tables outside to eat

Do not sleep on these babies! Family owned. Made to order. Soooo good! I'm a vegetarian, so it's challenge to find taquitos that do not taste like they were fried in the same oil as the meat products. These were crispy and a delight to eat. The bean and cheese were my fave. Potato and cheese were also delish, but I enjoyed the others more. But, will definitely be ordering this combo again! Avo sauce was an added bonus. Came with some shredded veggies and topped with cotija cheese. I got some of their habanero sauce on the side - soo good, it kicks you in the mouth like 3 seconds later! Banana Horchata kept the flames at bay! Watermelon agua fresca was very refreshing. I cannot wait to come back! It's a small parking lot that can fit about 20 cars. They provide a few picnic tables. Oh, and don't forget the jalapeño poppers - OMG! They are not Your typical jack in the box frozen kind. They are fresh! Slight amount of heat. Family was super nice - I 100% will be back to support their business, so the little m'ija can get a guinea pig!

Each bite transports you straight to Mexico City, and the grilled onions, nopales asados, and perfectly grilled jalapeño are all must-try combinations.

It looks like it could get pretty busy, but the line was very efficient and the people are very friendly here. The vibe here is definitely a fun mix of people looking for delicious tacos as well as some folks getting off of work and just trying to get a convenient meal on the way home. I think they're most known for their "battleship" taco, but during my visit I end up getting the surtido taco. This taco was a great mix that had a bunch of different textures and flavors from the different cuts, while being topped with sautéed onion and cactus. I will definitely have to order the battleship taco it next time I'm here. I came here later at night, so the market was already closed and there was plenty of parking around.

I was driving home from work and really craving hibachi, so I did a quick search and found this…read morefood truck. I was honestly surprised by the 2.9-star rating because the photos made the food look delicious, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Overall, I thought it was great. The meat was really good, very flavorful without being over-seasoned or overly salty. I love hibachi-style food, but a lot of places tend to go heavy on the soy sauce and other seasonings, which can make everything taste extremely salty. That wasn't the case here at all. The flavors were well balanced, and nothing tasted salty or overpowering. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, they were soft but not mushy and I liked that they used large pieces of broccoli instead of tiny chopped bits. The only thing I didn't love was the $6 upcharge for fried rice. All of the bowls and plates come with white rice by default, and while the base price of the bowls was fair enough that I still went ahead and ordered the fried rice, the price difference feels a little steep. It seems like they could charge a couple dollars more for the bowls and a couple dollars less for the fried rice instead, because a $6 increase just to put the rice on the grill and add some sauce feels a bit out of line. Other than that, though, the Service was fast and friendly, the food itself was really solid and definitely satisfied my hibachi craving. I'd definitely go back!

When she gave me, my food let me tell one thing i was hungry and i felt the bag was heavy it just hit the spot. 10/10 service was amazing. Very kind. It wasnt hard to find. Did I mention that it comes with six sides of sauce also very good total for everything g i give it a 10/10 recommended!! Paid $57 and a couple cents we did get a a mancania soda. Also the plate is more Than enough for two people. Me and my husband didn't get to finish it.
