“Love these tacos, I live a bit of distance away, but we still take the drive to eat the Tacos al Vapor the beef ones, add some lemon, dash of salt, hot sauce (which their hot sauce is good too:)), and some guac, you'll have the best tacos in town. I can't comment on anything else as that's all we go for, the tacos as that's their specialty 😋!!!“

“It's the first time we came to this restaurant and we loved it, it's 3 minutes from South Coast Plaza Mall, the food is delicious, the fish taco is full of flavor, as are the mole and molcajete, and the customer service is super good, excellent atmosphere with a DJ on weekends. this week my new favorite place

Vegetarian options: Pumpkin tacos, poblano rajas, mushrooms,“

“First time trying a torta ahogada and it did not disappoint! My hands smelled like tomato for the next couple of hours but it was so worth it. Spice levels were great, and the onions were delicious. The bread soaked up the soup perfectly.

This place is cash only and there’s space to eat along the truck (standing), but no tables.“

“Authentic flavor of mexico ….
Its a small restaurant but the atmosphere is awesome… we visit this place in a Friday afternoon and we enjoy the romantic music live …. Food is delicious… we try the a few plates … mi favorite dessert was the leche con pan and the plantinos“

“This is a hole in the wall dont be fooled by hoe it looks. Belive me when I tell you the tortas are out of this universe. I been voming herr for 12ys only thing they have changed is there bread but I get mine with Asada lite lettuce because they put alot of it. There birria tacos are good, get the torta best torta ive tasted and I have tasted alot. Also the price is very reasonable. Opened 24/7“

“The best tacos in Santa Ana !!!! They are delicious and the salsas are to die for !! And of course you can’t forget Los frijolitos 🤤🤤“

“I have only eaten the steamed tacos, very good, all the flavors are tasty. It just seems a little expensive to me, not very expensive, but I think they could be cheaper since we are talking about beans and potatoes.
The place is highly recommended.“

“tacos lengua. I live .01 ml from this joint. first time. will return. uber clean. I am a sushi/sanitation expert with 30 yrs in the field. these folk get an A+“

“We loved the decorations, it really felt like you were south of the border. Great food and service and all the staff was really friendly.“

“Small cozy family-owned restaurant with insane flavorful foodCame here by accident. Store is nice and cozy, super clean. Owners are a wife and a husband. Ordered Caldo de Res, the beef is super tender.What’s more amazing is their taco. It’s only 99 cents all day on Tuesday and 6-9pm any other day. Every taco serves flaming hot. The cabeza is juicy, full of collagen and MEATY, unlike other over fatty cabeza cut. Owners are super friendly.Hidden gem here, would definitely come back again.“

“The burritos they’re small but very good“

“Cops called on homeless man with hunting knife out and drinking outside on patio. Not their fault but they did keep customers safe and ask he leave prior to. Food was good. Bathrooms were in horrible shape. Not any drink, napkin and Swiss stations available.“

“Had a great first experience at la vegana. The pambazo torta was tasty, especially with the habanero and crema on the side for a little more flavor. Looking forward to going back and trying the quesotacos. Friendly and fast service as well

Vegetarian options: All vegan“

“Food is bomb highly recommend it.“

“Everything we have had so far is amazing. I love their rice and beans, which I can tell are not canned like many other places. The hand-made tortillas are bomb. Their caldos are great; My favorite is the caldo de res. Also, the staff is always great, very friendly and helpful. By far one of my favorite food places.“

“Bet tacos in Santa Ana. And the Yellow Salsa is bomb!!!“

“OUT OF BUSINESS???!

Was in the area and saw a sign that said out of business over the hours! So surprised this place had the best food and drinks. Ive been going here for almost a decade and it has been home to so many wonderful memories. I really hope it's not true but when we looks through the windows the restaurant was cleared out ?“

“First, the people who work there are professional and friendly. The place was very clean and had a lot of open space.

I got a chile relleno burrito. My only disappointment is that it had one small chile among everything else in the burrito. I got a combo and enjoyed my guacamole and chips, though there were parts of the guacamole that were the dark brown that indicates that it was exposed to air. But, it was real, homemade guac, not prepackaged gross nonsense.

All in all, I recommend this spot and would return if I was in the area and hungry.“

“Delicious grilled shrimp tacos with cabbage and plain diced tomatoes - the shrimp was prepared perfectly. My husband had grilled chicken breast tacos which were also delicious. Wish list: sliced plain avocado or avocado crema for the topping on the shrimp taco! 😊🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“THey have great food. Friendly staff Quick service and a clean pleasant eating environment.“

“Chile Rellenos were delicious with great service.“

“If you’re looking for real authentic Mexican food here is the hole in the wall. Delicious Popusas. The birria Tacos with Hand Made tortillas hits the spot! Blessed to have places like this open and sharing our culture foods to others. Come try this place!“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“I love this place. VIVA NUESTRA CULTURA MEXICANA🇲🇽“

“What can I say other than I just got one of the best services and treatment ever, I was quickly given a menu and recommended the tacos or sliders and went with the sliders which were great both the asada and chicken. You’ll get a small portion of meat but the bread and onions is incredible and very good pairing with the quality meat. 5/5 would recommend to friends or family.“

“Con todo respeto. Suben precio de tacos (no hay problema) y ahora no ofrecen rabanos. Que clase de taqueria es. Cuando Era una lonchera enseguida del billar ricos tacos, buen servicio. Y rabanos Pasa el tiempo, Y ahora que paso?“

“Found this place by looking for a Colimas (went to one in Oceanside). This place was great! Our new fave. Very clean, attentive servers. I have food sensitivities and ordered food more plain. Accommodated me in such a nice and friendly way. Brought all of the sides for the table without us asking. Salsa, sour cream, limes. Chips were thick and crunchy. We had Chile relleno, tacos, shrimp quesadillas, carne asada burrito (wet), Jamaica, horchata. Everything delicious!“

“Food was amazing, service was great, and the atmosphere felt just right, food was hot and very tasty, only downside is that there's no images on the menu, so you can't really tell what you're ordering, other than that, amazing Mexican Comfort food “

“Love this place. Delicious and authentic tacos, sipes, burritos etc... Reminds me of the taco stands in Mexico with homemade tortillas.“

“I've been here plenty of times. It's a great place to celebrate birthdays or other celebrations. The ambiance of the courtyard is beautiful- there lots of plants around with mariachi music playing. The servers are also very attentive! They will keep your champagne glasses full so I'd highly suggest ordering an uber or assigning a DD haha. The food is good and filling. There is a Taco bar, a buffet of chilaquiles, rice, beans, fajitas, pasta, etc. with menudo and pozole and lots of fruit. The food taste is not at the top of the top but it is 3.5-4/5 stars good. I highly recommend reserving a table ahead of time.“

“This place was outstanding!!! The atmosphere was wonderful, the Mariachi Divas were superb and the food was delicious. The quality of service was nothing short of fantastic. The staff was simply amazing. They were on top of things, engaging and polite. We definitely will be coming back and recommend others to try.“
