    New spot in Fontana! ordered 2 burritos Carne Asada & a Campechano (asada & Chorizo). Both were delicious! Good size. A little pricier than other spots at $14.75 a burrito. Something to consider. Tried 3 different salsas, Red, Green & Pineapple Habanero. Red was my fav, then the Green. Pineapple Habanero was just ok. Drink: Horchata was ok, but for $5, it should come in a larger cup. Not worth it. Will I come back and try it again? Yes, but that's just to try out different items and some of their specials. Hopefully, get more value for the buck. Give it a try, lemme know what you think :) I'll give an update on my next visit to share my recommendation Enjoy!

    First time visiting this location. Staff gave a warm welcome and served great tacos! Meat was tender, juicy and flavorful. I luv their tortillas. It's not as thick as most places it's just right to hold that perfect bite in ur hand till ur ready to chomp. Salsas were a perfect touch for some heat. Fountain drinks and the bang juices are self serve. Inside seating area was clean and spacious. Lots of parking right in front.

    2/24/26 The Taco Man Fontana, CA...Came here with 2 gr8 friends! I ordered 4 of the $2 Tuesday Tacos, a bean & Cheese burrito, and a horchata to drink! Always incredible and tasty food here! The tacos I had were carnitas, Chorizo, chicken, and al pastor. Balta and the 2 ladies know great customer service here. Restaurant was very clean. They give you a great amount of meats on the tacos and the bean & cheese burrito is a great size for $6! You know I will be back!!!

    When the food is so good you eat it before taking the picture

    When the food is so good you forget to take the picture before it's eaten! My second trip here and you can taste the love they put into the food they cook. Every bite flavorful and cooked right. Not overcooked and dry crumbles like most taco spots in town. Each bite is juicy and crispy on the outside. Meat cooked right Salsas are flavorful with some heat. Next time I will have the guts to try the pineapple habanero salsa Al pastor is better than Tijuana tacos (used to be my fav) and served with a slice of pineapple. Perfect pairing Asada is flavorful and juicy, can't ask for more These guys know what's up

    We've been to other The Taco Man restaurants and they never disappoint. They just opened and we were pleasantly surprised at how good the service was, how quick the food came out, and how clean the restaurant was. I had the keto taco before I LOVE cheese LOL and it was super yummy and easy to eat with the cheese as a the "tortilla". Also had the The Taco Man Taco and that thing, in my opinion, is a mini burrito! But so so good too!

    I've come here twice now and food has been pretty good both times. On Tuesdays, they have $2 street tacos but the meat options are only limited to al pastor, chicken, carnitas, and veggies. The al pastor is my favorite. I have also tried their asada at regular price and it was ok, nothing special. Their salsas are good but I really like their guacamole. My first time here, they forgot some items in my order but they redeemed themselves on my second visit. The cashier was really nice. The restaurant is clean and the food was packaged nicely. Food does takes awhile to come out and prices for regular menu items are on the higher end (I only come on taco Tuesday)

    This place seemed to have better quality and better service when they first opened. I came back and got a burrito, taco, and nachos. I was disappointed because the portions were not worth it and the food was cold. The burrito was ok and the Tijuana taco definitely wasn't like how they made it before. The cheese on the nachos were barely melted and the portion size was disappointing for the price. The price for their items is too expensive. I just came back from eating from on of my favorite Mexican restaurants in SD and I definitely had a lot more to eat, warm food, and paid a couple bucks less.

    Grease all over, too much. The asada is basically soaked in grease.
    Rolando O.

    I love this place, but the last few times the asada has been really greasy. So much it overpowers all the flavors.

    Nachos half Asada half pastor
    Ashley R.

    Wow, wow... flavor flav! I barely made it through the front door before ripping open my takeout and immediately deciding, "Nope, this needs a Yelp review right now before I finish inhaling the rest of this deliciousness." I was a little confused because instagram says they just had their grand opening yesterday, yet there are reviews from months back. BUT hey, if they've been secretly blessing the community this whole time, I totally get why people couldn't keep quiet. Inside it was nice and clean and the staff were nice & friendly. Today we tried the tacos and the nachos. I ordered the nachos half asada, half pastor and let me just say, this might be the best combo I've had in the area. Both meats were insanely flavorful. I skipped the lettuce and cabbage because your girl is here strictly for the meat, and let me tell you... no regrets. We also grabbed chicken tacos, plus I spotted the skirt steak tacos and immediately knew this place is going to be my new go-to taco stop. Bonus: it's in the same shopping center as Cardenas. Do your grocery run, then reward yourself with some truly BOMB tacos. You will not be disappointed. The horchata? Excellent! Highly recommend if you're in the area and honestly, even if you're not, it's worth the trip. It was a 20/10 for me !

    I came during my lunch hour and ordered to go. The food was good but was cold by the time I got to work (I work on Juniper, so maaayybeee a 5 minute drive??) I got 2 Tijuana style al pastor tacos, 2 chicken street tacos and an horchata. It was not cheap, I spent about $22. But the tacos were loaded. I'm willing to give them another try but next time I'll just eat here.

    Trash . Fatty meat and soggy NO FLAVOR ! Smelled like fish .
    Tejonna R.

    The food was absolutely disgusting. Tacos have no flavor . I got 4 corn Asada tacos with chips and salsa. Not good . It was about 8pm And I got Carne Asada tacos. We smell like fish. The salsa also had no flavor . Try another tacos spot .

    Elena R.

    Decided to finally try this spot since instagram claims this spot is great but I regret trying this place is got the lunch special which is a chicken bowl chips and soda the bowl had nothing but rice and lettuce and a few tiny chopped up pieces of chicken that I couldn't even taste not even worth the $14 sadly the coke was the only delicious thing about this meal even the rice was flavorless

    Chicken taco
    Priscilla C.

    Normally, the food is pretty good here but today I ordered through DoorDash and I'm not very happy with the chicken tacos. Normally the food is very tasty and today we received our food dry and burnt. I'm not sure if I'll place another order here again as I think the food should be consistent all the time.

    I cannot believe I have never written a review for El Chilitos Mexican Restaurant. It's our go-to…read morefor Mexican take-out and yes, we order take-out once or twice a month, which in our house translates to "no cooking." What I always order (and I'm boringly consistent) is Two hard shell shredded beef tacos with rice and beans. The tacos always arrive with the perfect amount of meat, crisp lettuce, and a tasty amount of cheese. The shell stays crispy and never turns into a soggy tortilla which is a win! Rice is fluffy and well seasoned. The Beans are creamy, savory, and basically soul-warming! I can never finish the beans the portions are good. The Hubby gets the carne asada burrito, which is so huge it could double as a pillow after a long day. He swears it's delicious and I've "sampled" a bite and yes, the flavor is there, very satisfying. Chips and salsa come complimentary even with to-go orders! It's around $32 for my taco plate and the carne asada burrito is a bit more but you're getting a lot of goodness for your bucks. We always order take-out, and somehow - somehow - the food lands back home still warm. Magic? Maybe! We've never eaten in so I can't speak to the dine-in vibe. Reason being it is a tiny restaurant but it always looks clean and has a sitting area for to-go orders. My only tiny gripe when we call to place an order, there are moments where I'm on hold while the staff seem to have a full-blown conversation. Ten minutes later, they remember I'm on the line. It's not a deal breaker, just a "huh, okay" moment I file under "worth the wait for the fix." Bottom line: Expect satisfaction from El Chilitos. It's my dependable, no-surprises, "I'm craving comfort Mexican food" go-to. Consistent quality, reliable flavors, and a taxi-cab of a burrito. My pictures are horrible but I promise to eat there again and share more!

Told to sit wherever we wanted so we did had a ice cold beer and chips and salsa were served. Then we looked over the menu and they had a huge selection I end up getting the chille Verde and the chile Colorado. I asked the girl how good it was. She said it was excellent so I ordered it in boil boy it was delicious. The both meats were so tender and the chili sauce was very flavorful. The beans and rice were really good chips and salsa were really good. Service was excellent. I asked her if El Chilito was a chain cause I seen them before and I guess it kinda is but they only owned the location in Fontana in Ontario so I will be trying to Ontario location next cause I'm closer to that one five star for you El Chilitos

The lady with the glasses looking like a 70's cafeteria lunch lady, she needs an attitude adjustment. I walked inside and being that it was my first time stepping inside the establishment I didn't know where to order, so I turn my attention to the menu above the window frame where they cook the food she turns around and says "what would you like" in spanish with a resting bitch face expression, our whole conversation was in Spanish. I asked her if they sell menudo everyday or just Saturday/Sunday, she looked irritated and just shook her head left to right...still not being clear as to why she shook her head I asked do you serve menudo everyday and she shook her head once again up and down indicating yes, mind you there was only two people in the restaurant. One was eating outside and a school kid sitting down waiting for his food, it wasn't busy at all so it's not like I was taking up her time or anything like that for her to have that attitude. I then asked if the menudo came with the hominy (I like it with hominy, I know it's not the traditional way to eat it) she said no we don't put hominy in our menudo, I told her ok let me have some tacos instead and she just looks at me without saying anything as if to say "ok what kind?" So I start telling her how many tacos I want of each meat and she cuts me off mid sentence and tells me, "you order over there, they will take your order" and points to the right and then I see the register and a painted sign above that says "order here" like I said my first time being there, yes I know I should have been more observant that was my fault but why engage with me asking me what I wanted just to cut me off mid order and tell me to order somewhere else. Ok whatever, so she turns around and starts doing her thing, meanwhile I don't see anyone at the register so I'm just standing there waiting for someone to take my order, a few minutes go by and this other lady comes in from the kitchen, they start talking and joking around for about 1 minute and then I hear them get quite and about 20 seconds later guess who who pops up again to take my order? Cafeteria lunch lady, without saying a word just stating at me with a grin on her face, so I say ok can I have two asada and she automatically stops me and asks me "two asada what?" Lol I'm thinking to myself, what do you mean what? I just finished telling you literally 2 minutes ago I wanted tacos before you interrupted me and sent me to have my order taken by someone else and now you want to act like you don't know what I'm talking about? This is when I knew she was on some BS. I honestly wanted to walk away at that moment in time because I'm a paying fucking customer, I'm not asking for free food so don't treat me like I'm bothering you or like you're doing me a favor...but instead I took a deep breath and told her "Tacos" I finished ordering and then took my seat. I enjoyed the tacos, they were good but the salsa's lack in flavor. All in all I'd come back but not if my food will continue to be served with an attitude, I don't want to feel like I'm bothering them when I'm just trying to eat and at the same time support local establishments.
