Disappointing. We used to come here quite often and when my son (he likes chicken burritos) saw the $40 family deal (it really is not a deal) he asked to try it, it is advertised to feed 4. So we ordered it with 4 chicken burritos, 4 beef burritos and 4 ground beef taocs along with a kids chicken taco meal for my daughter. We walked in at 530, sat quickly and ordered right away when the waitress came back after waters. The food came out at 6:10 (40 min after arriving) and was luke warm. When I divided the rice and beans onto plates (same size plate as my daughters kid meal the med round ones) the rice and beans we got was less than what she got on a kids meal. Basically it was enough rice and beans for two adult plates, maybe, The tacos were OK but very little meat in them and mostly lettuce. I usually do not order taocs but comparing to others it was half what we would get in other tacos. The burrito sizes were a joke. I could have taken all the meat from them and made a med size burrito. Thy were rolled loose and wide to appear larger under the sauce just mostly tortilla. On top of the size issue, when the waitress brought the food out she called out ground beef tacos, ground beef burritos and shred beef tacos. I stated it was supposed to be 4 chicken burritos (as mentioned earlier my son wanted chicken specifically). She said maybe the kitchen told her wrong because she had down correct. She went and verified and turns out we go 4 shred and 4 ground beef burritos. She said she would toss them and get us the right ones. Its already been 40 min and I am not a fan of tossing food and we were hungry, so I said we would just keep them. Later on when she checked how things were I said fine except the mistake with the burritos and she said it was her fault. So who knows who fault it was but bottom line, her only solution was to toss what they gave us and make new. They could have just let us eat those and bring us the correct ones or offer some compensation but they didn't. I am not the person to tell them what to do its up to the restaurant to try and fix, solve and gain the support of a guest when they mess up. Seems they only cared about the check today without consideration for future visit. That's fine. We have more the enough Mexican restaurants in the area to choose from. Just sad one I used to like is just mediocre at best now. So to recap: do not order the family meal, it is misleading and portions are the size of a kids meal for 4. I still love that this is one of the last restaurants serving thick chips instead of thin. But the other flavors were very mild and uninspiring. Perhaps my flavor profile has matured but for sure its left Gorditos behind. Still the same decore, the ceiling is distracting (stained) cleanliness was over all decent and the staff checked back several times. I just realized, I don't remember any music. I miss some atmosphere when dining that includes music or other background appropriate noise.

Overall good but not great. Had a burrito mojado with carnitas. Personally not a fan of lettuce in my burrito. Sauce of the mojado was just ok. Beverage options were not on the menu given. Chips and salsa were ok, nothing special.

Tacos and enchiladas are always good. Unfortunately, the free corn chips are the worst. No flavor and stale.

Recommended dishes: Gordito's Burrito Puerco and Chile Verde Burrito, Carne Asada
Of course the food was DELICIOUS! Fresh hot tortillas, super hot and delicious sizzling plate, the best Chile Relleno ever, the service was excellent, like being at your Grandmas kitchen. I highly recommend eating here and they also do banquets with efficiency.

Quick lunch stop on the way back from Tahoe that turned out to be a gem. Tucked behind the chuck e cheese with easy parking.
Great food, better service - our group of kids ate it up too!

What a great place! Very friendly to our large group with kids. Food was solid and the street tacos with chicken was pretty uniquely delicious. Our waiter Gil Jr. was very kind and nice! The restaurant has cool decorations.

My grandfather used to take me here when I was a kid, and we still go to this day. Old school Mexican place with a lot of cultura and class. I think they still make the pinto beans with cerveza, bomb. If u know, u know...????
