“I got the birria quesadilla and it was really good! I had already eaten some of the quesadilla in the picture but the portion size was huge. It came with console, salsa, lime and cilantro. I would definitely come back and the gentlemen working there was very friendly :)“

“This place was amazing! We live in San Diego, came to anaheim for Disney and were looking for a good spot to eat. Luckily we found this place. The server Miguel Angel treated us like family and made us feel so welcome. The food was delicious and the hot chocolate was the best I've ever had. Highly recommend you try this place, oh and it was under 100$ for 5 adults and we left stuffed.“

“Sarahi’s Mexican Grill is a culinary gem nestled in the heart of Anaheim, and after my recent dining experience, I can confidently say it's a must-visit for any food enthusiast. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the stage for an unforgettable meal.The star of the show was undoubtedly the Tacos al Gobernador and the Molcajete with meat. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, showcasing the restaurant's dedication to authentic Mexican cuisine. We also had their parrillada.The freshness of the ingredients and the expert preparation truly made every mouthful a delight.But it's not just the food that shines at Sarahi’s Mexican Grill; the customer service is exemplary. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal.With its inviting ambiance and mouthwatering dishes, Sarahi’s Mexican Grill has earned a permanent spot on my list of go-to restaurants in Anaheim. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and make a reservation at Sarahi’s Mexican Grill. You won't be disappointed.“

“I honestly could go on and on about this taco spot. It came as a recommendation from the front desk we were staying in. We wanted as traditional as you can get mexican food and this place did not disappoint. A hidden gem next to food for less, there is nothing fancy about this spot. But we would come here every single time we come to anaheim. I ordered a carne asada vampiro (a crispy tortilla with melted cheese), a chorizo taco, and two al pastor tacos. Each one being better than the next. The grilled onions on the side were seasoned well with a little spiciness. There salsa bar had five different sauce options each one better than the next. Be aware, bring cash, they do take cards, but the prices differ if using a card. Highly, highly recommend.“

“Great birria de chivo. Im not a fan of birria de chivo in general. I prefer beef birria but this birria is great. I can tell its made and cooked fresh every day. Perfect consume flavor and not too gamey. If you LOVE birria de chivo you will love this place. The quesabirria tacos were meaty and plentiful too. Open bar for the condiments meant you got all the fixins you want.“

“Tiny taco food place. Cash only. Quick service. Best to order to go. However, there are a few tables to eat there. I ordered 2 carne asada tacos and 2 tacos al pastor. I liked the al pastor better. I'll be back to try the other food options. Many meat options, lengua, buche, tripas, etc. The burritos looked good too.“

“After a day of traveling and then working we wanted a casual dinner in an upbeat place. Our group tried the Fajita Salad, Blue Cheese and Avocado Burger, and the Pineapple Burger. The Pineapple Burger had it's hints of sweetness and was very good even though I expected more than one piece of pineapple on the burger. The Fajita Salad was very well balanced and fresh! The Blue Cheese amd Avocado burger was my favorite though!!!! Of the beer on tap we had the Cali Squeeze Blood Orange which is a Wheat Beer, and the Una Mas, which is an Amber. Both were good if you like those types!Parking: There was not a lot of parking as it shares the lot but we eventually found a place to park.“

“We did lunch. Great food and service. Some of the dishes are spicy so make sure to pay attention…especially if you’re a gringo lol. You will pay a premium since it’s so close to the park but you will at McDonald’s or any other restaurant as well.“

“It's been a long time since we've visited Disney California. On our first night Puesto didn't disappoint. Our server Brian was amazing and he's recommendations where spot-on. The food is a little bit pricy, but it's worth every $$.“

“This was my first time here, and the dining room, is extremely clean, service was great, the coffee spectacular, and I am kind of picky when it comes to my coffee in the morning, since I try to only drink one cup of coffee a day, just because I don't want to be too caffeinated, the portions are big, and the food is really good! I will be going back!“

“So I was really surprised how the food tasted it was actually pretty good I got the fish tacos fried with beans and rice no complaints their the people were very busy they only had two people working in the kitchen so it was a bit long to get your order or help they need a third person especially around lunch time! The bathroom was pretty Gross it's something they need to keep up but I can tell because of the short staff they have no one to do that the place looks very blan the only good thing is the food keeps people coming back“

“I would go varsity with friends before school would start, and I would always get a cheddar bacon chicken sandwich with frys any time. The place is nice and a variety of food choices are good too. The best part is that you can order any fried food in the morning. Food is priced reasonably helps if you're a student at anaheim high.“

“Tripa, buche, pastor, and cabeza were all delicious. Red and green sauce, chopped onions and cilantro, lemon, and sliced radishes available at the salad bar. Staff is very friendly, service is on point. The place is just a bit messy with napkins on the floor and bits of food everywhere - but not a big deal.Will be coming back.“

“We stayed at the Hyatt House across the street for a spring break trip to Disney and by our 4th day we wanted something other than the hotel free breakfast and park food. One of the housekeepers recommended this place so we knew it was going to be good! We got cheese enchiladas beef tacos and chorizo breakfast burrito. Everything was super delicious and I would honestly say some of the best Mexican food we have had in Cali. (AZ has the best Mexican food and I stand by my statement) The lady who took our order was very courteous the service was quick. This is now a must have every-time we visit Disney now!“

“Best tortas, tacos, fundido... everything I've had the chance to try on their menu is so delicious and authentic. This is a small business run a by a very kind man and his family. I will gladly and eagerly continue to come back here. Just writing this now makes me want to eat one of there delicious carne asada tortas with a large fresh Jamaica drink. ‍“

“My family is from Michoacán and I lived there so I know food from Michoacán and this restaurant is the closest I’ve found to the homemade food. Enchiladas michoacanas and huchepos were delicious! The owners are lovely people too! Highly recommend!“

“Highly recommend the coconut margarita; larger than average size and tastes so good I was tempted to get a second. Staff was very friendly, gave recommendations, and checked in on my group throughout the night to see if we needed anything else.“

“Came for Taco Tuesday, and they were $1.95 each for the regular meats. And they were so good! The tortillas had a slight crisp and the Asadas not dry, unlike other places. You can tell the meat was freshly cooked, and not left there sitting in a bin. The people working there were really sweet & attentive as well. I also liked how clean the place was. We definitely be back again!“

“First time here. Food was great. We got tacos Al pastor. Chorizo breakfast platter. Green enchilada plated and the fluatas Each plate I order had a great taste. Great service. Employees were courteous and respectful. We will definitely be back here.“

“I was skeptical of this place when we noticed it. The food was delicious! My hubby gave the Menudo a thumbs up & that says a lot! We ordered Carbe Asada Nachos, Chile Verde Burrito, Cheeseburger & fries. Recommend this spot if you are in the area.“

“The customer service is friendly. Definitely hit the spot of my craving, chicken burrito with rice, and the birria tacos are up to par. They have cute little stools to sit on along with a foldable table to enjoy your meal! Will be coming back“

“Food was delicious & portions were quite large for the price. They have a big variety of options for all diets. It is s a bit loud & my only problem is that they served us an agua fresca that was about 1/4th foam. We would definitely come back, though!Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of space! Movable tables!“

“One of the BEST authentic meals I’ve had in a very long time. I’m from Texas, on business. The adobo de puerco en Chile verde was one of the best I’ve had. And I’ve had THOUSANDS of this type of dish. This was definitely a must go to if you are in Anaheim and wanting AUTHENTICITY. The owner was very kind. And great customer service from him and (assuming his) S.O. ? ? ?“

“I love this place my wife and I eat out here all time.. food is great. I worked here for a bit a little bit ago… the owners will always tell me “smile and be more welcoming” lol I thought it was funny and still do considering now every time we go everyone always looks like their dog died and have no welcoming attitude. Everyone from the cook , the owner (Peter If I remember correctly) and the two older ladies in the front …“

“It’s a typical whole in the wall place with dubious hygiene, basic service, but above average food. Slightly above, keep your expectations low. Also they show you the menu, but the prices are incorrect, they just have a sign that the prices have changed but not by how much.“

“It's a small location and seating is limited. All drinks r buy the bottle type except the aqua frescas. The service is good and the food was delicious. It's great to find a place that can do a cheeseburger different than all the other burger joints. Must try.“

“I like when you walk in they automatically ask how you’re doing and if you’re ready to orderI’ve ordered the enchienchilada plate a couple times because to me that plate tastes like home and I truly enjoy eating itToday I ordered chorizo tacos and pastor tacos everything was amazing just got full quick I had to leave two tacos behind and they are big tacos they also sale street small tacos but yes I definitely recommend you guys trying this restaurant ????they’ll be seeing me often here especially for my decaf hot coffee it’s soooo bomb love it ?“

“Came for the chile verde burrito and I was not disappointed. Tender chunks of pork in delicious spicy verde sauce wrapped in a delicate flour tortilla. Kenny took my order and was incredibly friendly and made me feel at home. Food came out quick and hot. Ill definitely be back! FYI cash only.“

“A find for the gourmet chorizo lovers like myself. Chipotle is the absolute hottest and my favorite. Accommodating shop speaks English/Spanish, will portion out meat for you. They have dry cured meats which are another find. mostly locals just saying. I bbq the chorizo so I tend to buy the full meter. Sterile environment. plenty of parking“

“I ordered the alpastor plate and an agua de Tamarindo. They were Delicious. The food was fresh and hot. The plate included refried beans with cheese on top, red rice, a little guacamole and plenty of alpastor meat. Check out the pics. I will recommend this place to everyone that asks for a good Mexican restaurant.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious!! We keep coming back for more. This time we got together for Sunday Brunch. I brought my dad. He lived the food!! The service is excellent!! We will always come back. Favorite Mexican food in Anaheim!“

“Overall, the tacos were above average. We ordered the carne asada, chicken, and potato tacos. You get 2 tacos per plate ($11.99), but we're stuffed and had double tortilla. The potato tacos were fried with some tasty slaw on top. The lines were slow and the order ahead feature was also over an hour wait. Overall, not as expensive as Disneyland and quality of the food was good. The quesobirria tacos, personally, did not look good, but I heard they were "ok."“

“El Patio Drive in is great restaurant, great food, awesome customer service! Hard shell beef taco was perfectly crispy, bean and cheese burrito was good size and tasted good! Chips and salsa was fresh and great tasting! They even opened the door for me, when I was leaving!“

“The food is good the portion is good. The size of mulitas and sopes I ordered where bigger than the average. The reason that I removed 1 star is because the machetes were alright not the greatest and they messed up my order twice but everything else seems good so far.“

“Service was very friendly, chips and salsa were good. The restaurant was clan and a relaxing environment. We ordered the 3 meat fajitas and chili rellenos and taco combo. Good portions and food tasted great. We'll definitely come back when I'm in the area. Server was awesome, very friendly and answered all the questions we asked. Made sure our drinks stayed full and checked on us multiple times once we had our food to make sure everything was good and see if we needed anything.“

“The service is very good, the manager (Queen) is very attentive when asking if everything is very good, friendly and polite. Which makes the atmosphere of very good quality.I enjoy my friends when I go to this restaurant. Thank you for your good service.“

“The whole chickens are delicious and plentiful. Chicken burritos quick fast meals and I'm on the go a lot. Next time I'm going to go large on the side dishes. Overall I wasn't disappointed and neither will you, gotta try for sure.“

“The food here is always great , the price is more than fair for the quality and quantity of food . It is family owned and they are always friendly and have great service . It is one of the better Mexican restaurants in the area , hard to beat .“

“This food is legit! In business since 1973. I always seem to know that the food is going to be amazing when the refried beans are good, and it was. Everything is so well done and super tasty. My co-workers that joined me think the same. We will probably return there again on this trip and I will definitely go here again whenever I am in Anaheim.“

“We were locking for a good menudo and pozole. After a day at Disney. Googled best menudo near me . Iguanas popped up . I'm so glad we took a chance. The menudo was hot, the tortillas were fresh, and the salsa oh boy . We will always go to Iguanas when we are in Anaheim.“

“Walked in hangry and with high expectations lol. They didn't disappoint. We got 2 carnita tacos, 1 asada and the asada fries (minus the guacamole cuz I'm picky af!). Food was made fast and tasted great! Only downfall is that the soda isn't on tap will definitely eat here again.“

“We stoped here for dinner while at Disney (needed something a little different from the standard Disney meal) and we're glad we did. We liked it enough that we went back for breakfast on our way out of Anaheim. The food was fulling and great, the service was friendly, and a great value.“

“We came here as a last resort. We loved how inexpensive and delicious these tacos were. We tried asada, suadero, al pastor, tripa, and lengua tacos. The lengua was a little cold. The asada fries were creamy and well seasoned. We would recommend this for a family with kids who like plain tacos. Adults can add the delicious toppings and grilled onions on them. The salad were flavorful.“

“Food is outstanding good portions at a fair price. Service was outstanding they were very fast to get our food no waiting even though they were somewhat packed. They are very friendly and even asked how our food was. Ambiance was nice. Their wall of mouse ears lends to the feel of the restaurant. They play star wars movies on the TV so you can enjoy as you eat. Now the food, we had the Tacos Gobernadores, well made good flavor not overpowering or greasy as i have seen other places. We also had the Birria quesadilla great flavor not overpowering good portion 1 quesadilla is enough to fill you up and finally we had the Birria Burrito good sized burrito with a good taste and flavor. Overall on the Belly Buster scale 0-10 with 0 you are staving and 10 being a full belly, i give them a solid 8.“

“Found this place near Disneyland on a recent trip. I had the chorizo and egg breakfast burrito ( with rice and beans in it too)and it was damn good. It was also huge. This place doesn't look like much, but the staff was nice, and the food delicious.“

“El Gallo Giro- 3/21/2024Time of day - EveningCarnitas Burrito and Agua de Jamaica (a la cart)Paid: $17.76Dined-In.Wait time - 20 minutes (it was busy)Good customer service from the cashier .

“We are the surf n turf burrito, enchilada and beef taco, el panchon steak burrito, steak fajitas, and kids chicken tenders. Jose, the manager, was fantastic. He was friendly, curious about his customers, and attentive to our needs. The green sauce and spicy green sauce were both packed with flavor. We were all pleasantly surprised by the gem of this meal and agreed it has been not just the best tasting Mexican food we've had in a long time but also the best food we've had during our entire visit to California.“

“First off, we were greeted by a very nice server who definitely went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We addressed that it was our first time so he gave us a couple of suggestions…Food: SCRUMPTIOUS!!!Since we were trying this place for the first time, we got a couple things off the menu.We got the 16” Machete Quesadilla, really big! I feel like it might be a little big for one person. If you’re trying out the menu like us, sharing is a great idea! Any way, it was very tasty and filling! We also added a nopal and avocado slices which made it evenWe also got the mini flautas! They are sooooo crunchy and tasty!We will definitely be making another trip here! There. Are so many things I still need to try! Plus we got a discount voucher for their weekend brunch!Algo dulce section looked delicious! So many options, but we were stuffed! Def trying something from there next time!“

“This place deserves recognition. The meat is good quality and cooked to perfection. Meaning, they are not hard chew beef you get at traditional Mexican food carne asada place. Get the tacos or the burrito and make sure it's carne asada or beefsteak. Great service too“
