This place was nice. Cool art. We ordered Chile relleno, keto chorio taco, fish taco, and carnitas. Good value in terms of portion. Flavor was good, just not eye popping. I eat a lot of Mexican food so I’m always looking for that place that can beat my last best bite. This was not it. Salsa on the other hand was delicious. Worth a go if you live in the area or maybe want a small bite. One taco ala cart was pretty filling and only $6.

The fish tacos looked great but didn’t live up to the hype. They were overwhelmingly batter-heavy, making them more crunchy than balanced, with the fish itself getting lost. The handmade tortilla was fine, but nothing that justified the price.
The horchata was another letdown and not something I’d order again. At this price point, a Mexican Coke would’ve been the smarter choice. Overall, the fish tacos didn’t feel worth it, especially when there are better versions elsewhere for less. In hindsight, ordering something more traditional might have been a better way to see why this place gets so much praise.
The saving grace was the staff friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful when walking through the menu, which I really appreciated. I tried all three salsas (red, green, and habanero). They brought decent flavor but very little heat for my taste, though others might find them spicy

They have a nice atmosphere, the art is wonderful and they have good music. First off they have handmade tortillas! We ordered chorizo taco, nopales taco, al pastor and asada. Overall the chorizo had the most flavor, while wevuthign else just needed a little more love. Salt really brought out the flavor and they have some amazing sauces to go on top. We’re coming back to try other flavors.

We stopped in for lunch having come to Costa Mesa for other reasons. I got the birria platter, my wife got the birria burgers, and we split chips and salsa. Everything was amazing and the portions were big enough we brought some home for tomorrow. Highly recommend!

The tortillas used for the tacos are extremely soggy. The hispanic male who works in the register is too intrusive and intense asking many personal questions, and had the audacity to interrogate me by asking the same question numerous times. I am not trying to impress him, this is not a crime neither a job interview. I honestly do not care if he believes me or not. It is not my responsibility to convince him to believe me, about his intrusive questions that I kindly responded even though this was an uncomfortable encounter. I just wanted to order food and sit down after having a long busy day. In addition, this hispanic male employee is excruciatingly evil, I know exactly what the horchata drink taste like and he added an extra ingredient that is spicy and causes the throat to close up. He has a dictatorship mentality to attack a customer for no good reason. He is self-entitled to think he has the right to obtain and have access to my social medias. Since I declined adding him on my social medias, he retaliated, which his actions are evidence of his pride and self-entitled mentality of expecting people to give him access to whatever he wants. This is not merely evil, but a crime and it is of utter importance that this employee gets investigated to protect this company from being shut down by the authorities. This occurred on Wendsday, February 4, 2026 at approximately 3:40 p.m. at this exact location.

Fantastic place for great tacos or whatever you want! Decent size menu and you will not be disappointed. The chip and salsa is on the heated side, but still delicious!
Parking is a HUGE PAIN IN THE $$. So be prepared to wait or walk from someplace with more parking.

First time at this establishment. I ordered cheese enchiladas and my partner ordered shrimp enchiladas. I wasn’t asked what kind of sauce I wanted on my enchiladas. When our food arrived I was given someone else’s food. I reminded the person that I had ordered cheese enchiladas. When the enchiladas arrived they had green sauce on them. I told the server who was also the person who took my order that I was not asked what kind of sauce I wanted. The server replied, “I heard green” My partner told him “I said green sauce.” He was asked. I wasn’t. I told the server I don’t do well with green sauce. The server, who was also the person who took our order said he would fix it. I was hesitant. He assured me he would fix it. He brought back a fresh plate of enchiladas with red sauce as I ate my first bite I could taste green sauce. After I scraped away the red sauce I could see green sauce underneath. These were the same exact enchiladas that were brought to me the first time. We spent $70 on our meal.
Granted I could and should have said, Do I have an option for the sauce? I didn’t. That’s one me. But I shouldn’t have to. It’s their job to ask. And when the server/register person who originally took my order told they would fix it, I trusted they would. They didn’t.
The atmosphere was chaotic. It wasn’t their fault that there were two screaming babies at that time, but they had the music so loud. The music, coupled with screaming babies and continually waiting for our food and my partners drink made for an unpleasant eating environment. I’m not sure the person who took our order and eventually served us had all the support they needed. They seemed asleep as my partner said. This was our first impression of this establishment and it was very disappointing.

Definitely one of the better Mexican shops, but the fish tacos was the best

The Mexican food quality is stupendous! I got my nails done across the st and found this place bc it was near by. I’m so glad I checked it out. There’s not a lot of parking, but im glad I found a split bc this place is so delicious. It even tastes better than Sol Cocina restaurant that has an ocean view in Newport Beach. I love that the ambiance is calm, relaxing, and peaceful. I aye hehe a lot when I was pregnant and almost forgot about this place bc I live in the other side of the 55 freeway. So glad my husband offered me dinner from here bc he was heading to Home Depot.
Let’s support this business, please. So many restaurants have closed and is hate for a small delicious place to not be able to make it.
