The location is convenient, for the Lutheran Hospital Staff and patrons. it's easy to get in and out and there is ample parking, The people who run the " Taco Truck * are very nice.“
“I have been here 4 times now and absolutely love it. The dishes have such wonderful, clean flavors, and I love the variety and creativity. I am gluten sensitive and the fact the entire restaurant is gluten free makes it that much more wonderful because I know I can order anything on the menu and have no problems. Tonight we just stopped in for dessert while downtown and I got the churros with three different sauces. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite and my boyfriend who generally doesn’t eat sweets also had a few churros and said they were excellent. We will definitely be back soon to check out more of the Spring 2024 menu!Dietary restrictions: This restaurant is completely gluten free with excellent food.“
“We can't say enough great things about The Hills: Alejandro and his Staff do it right each and everytime! 2 of our favorites are The Hills Alambres and Beer Battered Tacos. The service is amazing, atmosphere is cozy and props to the Chef! We are so fortunate to have this restaurant in Pleasant Hill - if you have haven't tried it, please do! :)“
“I've been to Mexico many times, and always struggled to find good tacos in America. This place has the best tacos I've ever had in USA and rivals many from Mexico.I liked the 3 sauces they bring to every table, and they have fresh free chips (homemade) and salsa.Service was prompt and friendly. The house salsa (for chips) was not the best (i would recommend them a bit more salt and lime), but those sauces for the tacos were awesome.We can't wait to go back!“
“This place is pretty neat! Had never been to a funky gourmet style ice cream shop before and this was certainly fresh and fun... And the girls who served us were really sweet! Had a fun time just hanging out and trying something different! We'll be back!Parking: Reserved patron parking around to the right side of building when facing the front of the shop which is located in the back of another Mexican restaurant!“
“Went here for lunch with some guys from work. Had the special, chicken fried steak, and it was good. The roll was delicious too. I thought it was gonna be a bit hard, by the looks. Also ordered the Thai peanut wings. Tasty with a small kick.“
“Today was the 1st time I ordered food from here and it is hands down AMAZING! I ordered a Carne Torta. Delicious and fresh! Meat is tender, juicy and no grissle. Will definitely be back. Nice people, didn't wait to long, clean place too :) Would post a pic but can't figure that part out.“
“I got carne asada tacos, rice and beans. Beans were flavorful, creamy and smooth, tacos were some of the best I’ve ever had… And the rice? It was so fluffy, when I blew on it to cool it off rice stated floating away. I don’t know how I’ve never heard of this place, but I’ll be a repeat customer for sure. 10/10“
“The food here was excellent and very authentic. We ate the huevos rancheros (they serve breakfast all day) with eggs over medium (cooked to perfection) and the cheese enchiladas. Every side was delicious and we locked our plates clean and were very full and satisfied! Super affordable and very quick. There isn’t really anything else around - it’s in a residential area.Vegetarian options: Cheese enchiladasParking: Parking is on the street in a residential area“
“Absolutely delicious food! I really loved the salsa, guacamole, and my main dish. Maybe the service was a bit rushed because we were here close to closing time. But I would definitely suggest stopping because the food is so good. It was hot when it arrived and came reasonably quickly, too.“
“Awesome food, Great quality ingredients, and Outstanding service!Lots of great dishes to choose from on the menu. Prices are very fair as well.If you haven't already tried them out, I highly recommend you do!We'll keep coming back! Yum!“
“Got 4 street tacos (1 chicken, 1 steak, 2 asada) and they were some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. The asada was my favorite. Make sure to try the spicy red sauce on your food, it’s actually hot without being offensive. Will definitely be back when I’m in the area “
“12/14/23Good food, great service.The regular salsa with the chips and salsa was probably the best I've had in the metro area. The spicy salsa wasn't the same brown stuff as most places, it was homemade salsa roja and he wasn't joking about it being spicy. ¡Me quedé bien picado! Chicken fajitas were pretty good, carnitas were just okay.Service was fantastic, including being checked on frequently but not too frequently after the food was delivered.“
“The food is amazing, the people are friendly, the atmosphere is fun and warm even if it does come off as a little bit contrivedParking: Free parking around the building, plenty of parking spaces.It was just a little tight for my full size dually but ultimately not a problem!“
“Absolutely delicious !The presentation and aroma...the singe on the asada...the chorizo along with Verde and Rojo sauce absolutely ?I will 100% be back !I always like to start off with the carne asada tacos because if you can't get that right than I don't wanna do business. I always go at least on sauced up and one as is and all was delicious!!Something a little different is the cheese on these. Normally I don't find cheese in the street tacos...and it was ?Even the tortillas are on point, not falling apart.Check out the pictures of the Taco Truck Traveler and Eating with Alabaster !“
“I love Fuzzys! Their management and service team are just the best. Good food. Good people.Dietary restrictions: Tacos are great for dietary needs! Corn tortillas are gluten free and plenty of vegetarian modifications availableParking: First hour is free with validationWheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking available, restaurant is on ground floor“
“This place is delicious. Just tried it based on the reviews…there aren’t many, but they’re all correct. Super nice people, great quality food…I had a couple beef tacos…better than any taco I’ve had at Malo or any “upscale” Mexican place in town. You’re silly if you don’t eat here on the regular, which I will be doing.“
“Puro Puebla is definitely one of the best food trucks in the Des Moines area. The portions are huge, the food is great, and it leaves you craving for more. The owners and staff are very nice people, too. Definitely recommend to those looking for delicious authentic Mexican food.e“
“Had 3 each of the pastor and asada tacos on a beautiful Sunday morning. Excellent tacos with 2 really good sauces. I’ve lived in Texas and Colorado and these are right up with the best authentic tacos I’ve ever had. The little red truck in the parking lot puts out a really nice product at a fair price. Highly recommend if you ever get on the north side of Des Moines just off of I 80!“
“So much to try - ice cream, Mexican popsicles (paletas), and many flavors of beverage (horchata, nuts, etc.) And all the Mexican street/fast food you can imagine. Be a kid again and take the family. Family owned business. Staff is friendly, recommended.“
“I did a service call at Los Flores and got to see, first hand, how clean and nice their kitchen really is. We like to dine in familiar places, but after this, I really wanted to try Los Flores for Date Night.Seating was quick. Service is good! I evaluate Mexican restaurants by their tamales, because my Grandmama used to make them from scratch when I was a much younger child. They are damn good here! My Honey likes to have warm queso dip with her tortilla chips, she was well pleased. The salsa is good as well!Moses' crew did good taking care of us. We will be back for more good food!“
“Ok first time being here so the food was more oh less my daughter ordered roast beef but the truth The steak had no seasoning and was undercooked the waitress the truth was definitely really bad she was never on the lookout On the contrary The manager I think it was manager very nice person and was more attentive than the waitress I would like to say that it was a good experience but not if I would return and it is a different experience I heard very good things about the place but this time I was very disappointed my waitress was Laura so avoid me serving you We asked for something and he brought us something different and the next time it was better I don't say I don't recommend it but I give a chance another chance“
“Stopped here for a quick bite to eat before our busy day. Arrived about 11:20am and the owner had the grills up and running. She was unloading things but took our order and got to cooking once done unloading. It took about 10 minutes for 2 burritos. I ordered the pastor burrito and my fiancé ordered the chicken burrito to go. We had them loaded, beans, meat, sour cream, Pico de Gallo, and guacamole. There is no other way to get your burrito! Once home we devoured our lunch. They came with the most amazing grilled onions and jalapeños. The burrito was stuffed full of food and flavor! Make this place a priority when you're around the south side!“
“The 3 Tacos were more like gorditas to me, shell was fairly thick and soft, but those were pretty good. The bean burrito was a bit smaller than expected, served in a container with a good bit of cheese on top, got those 4 things for 12 dollars, which felt like a deal for the amount of meat in them. There was a lot of people waiting on food in the dining area. This place needs a drive thru.“
“The food is very well-made and perfect for its price. I have never been displeased. I have been coming since I was like 3. Here are some pictures of me and my family here in like 2017. I love this place so much! - Mina ByfordParking: I park by at the big parking lot by the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Yes, plays good TV shows and is very yummyWheelchair accessibility: Yes.“
