This is an unconventional place being located inside a gas station. The staff were very nice. We have tried this place a couple of times. We ordered the birria ramean, quesabirra taco and some chicken tacos. The birria ramean wasn’t bad but the meat was very fatty and the broth greasy. The quesabirria tacos were good but again a bit fatty of meat used. The hubby enjoyed his chicken tacos. The price wasn’t bad but not my go to place for birria either. It’s fresh food and doesn’t sit which I appreciate but too greasy consume to really enjoy the flavor. The sauces were good and they gove plenty of onions and cilantro which I appreciate.

Decided to try a breakfast burrito after fueling up at the Shell station. Very clean. $10 with tax for any number of versions. I chose chorizo, egg and potato. Nice salsa bar get refrigerated. Enjoyed the size and quality of the burrito. Brought it home, though there are a number of booths if you want to eat inside.

Hands down, El Gordo Mexican Grill number 9 delivers the most authentic and unforgettable Mexican food experience! From the moment you walk in, the aroma of perfectly seasoned meats and fresh cilantro hits you, setting the stage for a feast. The al pastor tacos are a must-try—shaved right off the spit, they’re tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, especially when topped with their fiery red salsa. The handmade tortillas are soft and truly elevate every bite. Service is fast and incredibly friendly, even during peak hours. If you’re looking for genuine, high-quality Mexican street food that feels like a taste of Tijuana, this is your spot. Five stars aren’t enough for this deliciousness; I’ll definitely be back for more!

The atmosphere is…. well… a gas station… but don’t let that deter your decision to come eat here. I personally have not eaten one item from the menu that repulsed me. The beans and rice are always good. They make a damn good menudo every weekend. And the birria anything is never disappointing. The wait can be, at times, a little long. But worth it. This will be my mexican food go to, over any bertos, or ricos going forward!

This place is scrumptious. The taste buds are moved in such a way, that it may be compared to that of art. Visually appealing to the eyes, and delicious to the mouth. This establishment procures success in the food industry. I recommend this place to everyone.

The food was amazing.
We ordered breakfast burritos and tried the Al pastor tacos. Everything was so good, clean and not greasy. Prices are decent as well!
We will be back to try more items!

Nice restaurant inside a Shell gas station. A good, clean restaurant with inside seating. Service was very good.
Large portions, reasonable prices, and the food tastes fantastic. Fresh ingredients.

I went to this location during gas station cleaning, so I had to wait for the cones to be removed so I could order, but only half was washed. Looked like it mattered man
anyway, nope. Restaurant man made me order quick, so I missed the meal deal I could have ordered… but I did order separate items and all were amazing.
I think being in the gas station is bringing them down.
We typically only buy from 2 burrito stands..but I saw them and ordered, amazing…
But the menu is so large and they don’t give you a handheld version, that you feel either confusion or threatened to order (they weren’t mean but tired of waiting, the menu is insanely large…I get why they’re impatient )
(( Pics posted are only half the menu!!))

Portions are very big but I didn’t think the food had much flavor to it , I ordered on door dash to pickup and then I got there at my pick up time he said he just started work even though door dash was accepting orders like 1.5 hr before this . Had to wait a long time

One of my favorite genres of Mexican food is gas station Mexican food. There was a previous restaurant here that I enjoyed also, but this new version is really good and I’ve been very happy every time I’ve gotten stuff. They don’t mess around on the portions. It’s a lot of food priced fairly. Some items you don’t get at other Mexican food places like bacon wrapped shrimp and bacon wrapped cheese stuffed chilies. See pic
