Always great and friendly. Food is amazing and they actually cook there. Hot carrots/jalepeno combo

Been here a few times and the food is fresh and the staff is friendly. Good prices and Convenient option for Mexican food when in the area.

This was our first visit to this taco shop. The Restaurant was cleanish but dated. I say "cleanish" because the tables were mostly clean but the floor was a mess. The Employees were friendly and helpful. There were a few people eating inside and a couple at outside tables. We ordered cheese enchiladas ($10.50), an al pastor burrito ($11.99) carne asada fries ($14.99) A side of rice 1/2 pint ($3.75) The cheese Enchiladas were delicious, they had lettuce on top which we love. The Al pastor burrito was delicious meat was perfectly cooked. The carne asada fries were on point. Great flavor, meat was perfectly cooked. They have a salsa bar there with several choices of salsa. A couple HOT and a mild one. We took containers of all to try and none of the four of us cared for any of them. The guacamole was flavorless. We paid $56.26 for the four meals.

Temecula might not be a big city, but the traffic sure is a pain in the shopping district. During the 11-day election cycle at the public library, I had to find closer options to fit within the 1hr lunch timeslot, so this restaurant fit the bill. A co-worker mentioned that it's a good spot, so that also shaped my decision. Inside it's not exactly modern or comfy, I imagine a lot of business is probably take-out, but I did find a clean table to wait for my meal to be ready. I got a few salsas from the salsa bar and sat down. Before long, my reasonably priced rolled taco plate came out. I got one apiece of shredded beef and chicken. It looked really good, and not simply because I was starving. The rice and beans really stood out as excellent. The tacos were equally tasty and I felt just right afterwards. Neither too full, or still hungry. Fantastic QPR here, and friendly service. As noted, the dining area is more an option, and the heat and smells of the kitchen might be more obvious on a hot summer day. Nonetheless, I recommend them highly.

So good! Exactly what you need for quick, delicious Mexican food. Salsas are solid, rice and beans right on the mark, GREAT tacos and camarones. Everything here is good to go!

Some of the best rolled tacos I ever had. Honestly! I'm in the middle of eating them right now while writing this review. I had to share with everyone lol Every one here was so nice too. Welcoming right when I walked in.

Being my first visit I was quite impressed with their takeout service and packaging. In addition and most importantly their Carnitas Nachos rang my bell! They are currently the reigning leader for my business when it comes to Nachos based on taste, tortilla chip crispiness, meat tenderness, portion size, and cost! Will revisit for a sit down meal of various other entrees. Highly recommended.
