They have several locations in providence…read moreand Cranston that has brightly colored decor, the same menu at each location with authentic cuisine, and friendly staff! I have been eating at California tacos since 2011 and it is a place I frequent with my friends and family to get delicious food. They serve HORCHATA here!!! This he's to find sweet drink is made with milk and cinnamon and has a bit of rice cooked in it. If you're a frequent horchata drinker- they have it!!!! If you've never had it- I 10/10 recommend. The California sampler is my favorite meal since it had so many items from the menu and is cheap for how much food they give you!!!!!

Shockingly Surprised, then disappointed…read more 2 visits with different outcomes. 1st was enjoyable, tacos were decent, margs were well made, and the prices were reasonable. Fell for the consum"ay" with the burria tacos 2nd visit, tacos were a sloppy greasy mess. Burria tacos tasted old and reheated, fried avocado tacos were gross, The drinks, we were not forewarned that a double means you pay double the price for a drink. Bill went from affordable to overpriced. To be honest, this place doesn't serve authentic tacos. It's one of those taco places that invents greasy messy (mac and cheese topped everything pun) tacos and I think they should serve a basic good fresh street taco that isn't dependent on some greasy add ons to try to be clever. Probably won't be back. Thanks

Sad that Dr. Duffs is no longer here but wanted to give this one a try since I am a taco fiend. I…read morereally wanted to like this place. But here are some of my honest opinions: Likes: - staff was great! Super nice and friendly. I gave an extra star mainly for them. - the Queso fries were good - the birra tacos were good but just a bit on the salty side. - the atmosphere looked cool Dislikes: - The boom boom crispy shrimp tacos- I don't enjoy lettuce in tacos and they loaded it with way too much sauce. It felt drenched so I couldn't really finish it. - Nashville hot fried chicken tacos- again too much lettuce and way too much sauce which seemed like sour cream. The chicken wasn't crispy and the taste was just ok. - and avocado tacos- way too much mayo all over this taco. It was overbearing. Might work for some people but not for me. - the smell of the unfinished wood was a bit too strong for my senses. Im always open to trying new taco spots and I hope they keep improving.

What a fun spot! I would love to know more about the lore and why they chose this theme…read more Went with some friends and we loved everything. The crispy brussel sprouts had a Thai peanut style which I love and don't get to see often! The Philly Smash (I think is newer) was very good and a nice highlight to their queso but the star of the show to us was the Mojo Pork (my friends even got one more final taco after our original order just to have it again). It was so moist where a lot of people can really dry out the pork and it did not skimp on the filling. My boyfriend had the mission style burrito with the barbacoa and said it was delicious and the cheese was very nicely melted. The drinks we had were also good and the service was great. I was the only one in our party that hadn't been before but I see why so many are fans and I'll definitely be back!

Amazing food and menu. Will have to return multiple times to try the rest of the menu. Went with…read morethe Mojo Pork and Korean Fried Cauliflower tacos. Both flavorful and prepared perfectly. Black beans and rice were very good sides. Chip's and homemade salsa made for a good starter. Chips were lightly seasoned and a little thicker than most places. Bowls are excellent chicken seasoned perfectly and prepared perfectly. Our server Olivia did a great job and the entire staff was friendly and helpful. Can't wait to return

My family was visiting from Costa Rica but none of us are seafood eaters so I didnt want to take them down to the restaurants in east greenwich.. so glad I chose closer to home. The outside dinimg area was beautiful at sunset , i have a new appreciation of tiogue lake after eating and watching the sunset from here. We went on a monday night, labor day, around 6pm and there were others dining outside but we got right in without a wait or reservation. The service and food was phenomenal. Our server Sophia was attentative and patient with my sister who was definetlty feeling the margaritas. I ordered one margarita as a 'tall' , I rarely need just one drink but honestly this was strong while still delicious-- I was surprised since usually too strong can be all liquor but this was perfection. The cornbread and loaded nachos were my favorite, the nachos reminded me of 'five star cool ranch doritos' at least for the flavoring. Ill certainly be returning.

Worried about mold we alerted our server who told management and after further investigation figured out that they had new silverware and the silverware caused the black streaks. She even showed us and said she was going to have them scrub them. We appreciated it. My son had the pork belly burnt end tacos and was pretty happy, my husband the crunch wrap and no complaints and I had the Birria tacos. They weren't the best but not bad either. I still have to go back to try the bbq. My one complaint- flies. There were a few flies flying around. Otherwise decent place to eat with great staff/ management.

I ordered takeout the other weekend and while I waited, there was a live singer/danger performing, so that was fun to watch. I ordered the Vegan Chorizo Burrito Bowl, and the portion was generous - I could barely finish, and I think I saved some for later. The lettuce was crispy and fresh, and the house made vegan chorizo from chickpeas is a fun slightly mealy texture that I crave. I've also had a similar dish in Tostada form, which was crunchy and a little difficult to eat, but fresh and absolutely delicious. It's so exciting as a vegetarian to have multiple protein options at a Mexican restaurant, other than just the classic beans. Parking can be a little bit of a challenge at times - this place always seems busy! They have a small lot you can park in, or I was able to pretty easily find street parking mere feet away from the restaurant. Some people look like they park at the Dunkin Donuts next door at night when Dunkin is closed, too, especially if running in quickly for a pick up order. The dining area is a little small, but there is a special bar area off to the side, and they sometimes have liquor vendors set up during special events giving samples or teaching about their product. I feel such a burst of warmth and sense of being welcomed every time I come here, and can't wait to keep working my way down the vegan menu - THANK YOU for catering to those with dietary restrictions and creating a whole section for us, not just having one dish available and calling it a day. I can't wait to see what is in store for the future of Casa Azul!

The owner Sajo is an annoying creep…read more I briefly worked for Sajo years ago During my very brief time there, he made unwanted advances toward me despite being old enough to be my father and him being married. When I finally left, he refused to pay me what we had agreed upon, claiming he didn't have the money. At the time, I was young and just wanted to get away from the situation, so I let it go. Since then, over the years he has continued finding ways to contact me through different platforms. I've finally had enough.
