The food has gotten much better here than when they first opened. The Birria tacos are excellent, as is the soup, but with summer coming up, my go-to is tacos al pastor or street tacos, as some of the bigger items on the menu can be a bit heavy.There is a huge selection on the salsa bar - Jalapeños and Carrots, Creme Salsa, Pico de Gallo, Tomatillo Salsa, sometimes radishes, limes, Chipotle Salsa and an extra hot salsa.There is also a red sauce, a green sauce and a habanero sauce...read full review

I've been frequently to 2 other El Forastero spots and this one is always the best. Very quick service with better flavored ingredients than their other locations. I usually get a Cali burrito with guac and sour cream or a potatoes bacon eggs cheese with guac and sc. I have had enchiladas and those are good too with their rice and beans being decent. The salsas are also really good. I love how it still looks like the Taco Bell it used to be :)

Got the mangonada which were Amazing!!! Their tacos are huge which I love. They can be expensive so if you are getting dinner for the family expect to pay more. I got Nacho fries, 2 tacos, 2 mangonadas, and 3 rolled tacos and paid just under $50... Food was very good though.
