“My wife and I stopped by Carlito's and were pleasantly surprised to find clean, neat establishment with an interesting American/Mexican food menu. We ordered the huevos rancheros and were pleasantly surprised as the eggs came just as we ordered them (her: over easy, me: sunny side up with soft yolks). The refried beans were mercifully fluid instead of the dry, dusty paste often encountered in most restaurants. The chile verde (pork) covering the eggs and taco was absolutely terrific!The service was very good with the manger/proprietor being exceedingly kind and solicitous. I note on some other reviews -- the one star ones -- that they took exception to the food but, for the life of me, I find it hard to believe one would find a clinker in this lot if the establishment could do huevos rancheros as well as they did for us. We will return and visit to check out the other items on the menu but, until then, I suggest you visit and find out for yourself. I am sure you'll be delighted.“
“We love Cancun Fresh, we have been going here for years. The food is always delicious! Service is top notch, and the food comes out fast and hot. I have had a lot of the dishes from the menu and all of them have been great. No complaints here! We go at least a few times a month and it's consistently great.“

“Just eat here. The food is ridiculously good and the service was just at good. The sampler plate of shrimp was too much for one person but my husband gladly finished the leftovers. Camarones a la Diabla was some of the best I ever had and I don’t say that lightly. It was 20 minutes away from our hotel but worth the drive and no regrets. You will want to ask for tortillas but don’t because you don’t need them. The chips n salsa said everything is gonna be alright and yea it was!!!!“
“Really good service. Friendly. The food was good, Wish they had small packet taco sauce from original restaurants in the past. Salsa and taco sauce is still good. The dining area is cool with stripes on the wall that give it a nostalgic vibe. Street and parking lot area to park. Went during lunch time on a Friday and was surprisingly empty. Prices are not bad, not cheap but decent. Taco Burgers are good. Fries are crisp. If you're in the area and like Mexican food try it out.Kid-friendliness: Have a selection of food items kids usually like“
“Sabrosada has multiple locations across the Orange County area, and this location is near Mile Square Park next to Sam's Club. It has a small parking lot, some indoor seating, and a drive through if you don't want to get out of your car. AL PASTOR TACO ($2.45) - they have a smaller size with just onions and cilantro and a larger size with guacamole (that's also twice the cost). I got the smaller size but the taco was still loaded with meat. Even better, the al pastor was flavorful and tender. These tacos were solid! 5/5 SUPER BURRITO ($14.49) - even though I got this without beans, for a super burrito the size was not so super. It was not big and it was just okay. It wasn't the best I've had and I liked the other things I got here more. 3/5 CARNE ASADA FRIES ($14.99) - they have a full size and a half size although the full size is only ~$1 more. The carne asada was a little dry but the fries had a lot of fresh ingredients like pico and onions to help with the heaviness. This also had beans in it which I didn't care for and would get it without next time. 4/5 Their red and green sauces were both pretty good. The al pastor was way way better than the carne asada and I would try to get everything I could with the al pastor even if I had to pay extra for it.“
“I love Del Taco. I have been to several Orange County locations, and this is by far the best one. The food tastes the best and has the fastest drive-thru.Parking: Parking has never been an issue. They have lots of spots.Kid-friendliness: A great place to take kids. The staff is very friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp and disabled parking.“
“I ordered the chicken mole plate and my friend had the shrimps Diablo, those were so good. This is a small time Mariscos place, but if you go to Blarney Stone bar next door, when you order food from the Mariscos restaurant, the server lady will bring your food order to your bar, with utensils and napkins too. That is another good benefit because the bar doesn't have any food, but it allows outdoor food. They have beer buckets for reasonable price. I also included the updated menu pictures and prices and the prices went up because of inflation. The food is still good. Check it out!“
“The food was delicious. The salsa and chips were so flavorful with out being over spicy. I had the SHRIMP ENCHILADAS and they were fantastic. The posted prices are quite a bit off from what they are at the restaurant. I didn't know if I would like their white rice but I ended up enjoying it. The service was slow but she was working alone. What I would change: have fountain drinks with refills. Overall, great experience.“
“We have lived in FV for over 10 yrs. Never pay any attention to any on the restaurants in this strip because they never last....... tried to go to Shabuya, wait time went from 11 mins. To over 2 hrs. In 30 mins. This restaurant saved the night. The food ????? the service!!!!!!!!!! Even better. They actually do fish and chips the right way, not with soggy beer batter.... thank you so good! Can't wait to come back!“
