I recently visited Poncho’s Tacos, and as taco enthusiasts, we like to compare street asada tacos from various spots around Southern California. The service at Poncho's was friendly and welcoming, which made for a pleasant experience. The carne asada was flavorful and had a generous portion, though it was a little on the chewy side. The medium red salsa was excellent and definitely a highlight of the meal. While the tacos were good, I’d probably try other places before returning. Additionally, it felt a bit warm inside, as I don’t think the AC was on. Overall, a solid spot, but there are plenty of other taco joints to explore in the area.

The best taco that they had were the pastor, and even better as a vampiro. Lengua is chewy, asada is dry and the birria did not taste like birria. The cheese is also not the best, barely melted.

This place never has asada always “out” when they do have it, food is cold. Over priced for what it is.

So good! My daughter and I stopped by today. The tacos were so tasty and freshly made. I got fish, shrimp and pastor tacos. We also got chips and guacamole, which we loved. Great spot and friendly staff.
The truth is, the worst tacos I have ever eaten, the flavorless tacos, the meat dry and tasteless, the truth is I will not come again

I really like Taco Tuesdays so I eat tacos almost every Tuesday. I have tried tacos from quite a few taco places ranging from Orange County to San Diego over the years. When it comes to tacos, I prefer the traditional Mexican-style with meat, onions, cilantro, and salsa piled high on a corn tortilla over the Americanized versions loaded with lettuce, cheese, and other toppings.Even though I am not Mexican and have never actually been to Mexico to authentically experience tacos, I still pride myself on knowing what good, flavorful tacos taste like.Ponchos Tacos is located in a shopping mall in an industrial complex so it's not directly accessible from the main road (State College Blvd) resulting in fewer visitors due to the location in a less crowded shopping mall. When I visited, I was the only customer. Based on the location, it seemed like a place focused more on lunch than dinner business.The interior atmosphere was nothing fancy, very much a common street restaurant vibe focused on takeout. However, Ponchos Tacos' carne asada tacos were the most delicious I've had in the past few years. The prices are also cheap - Taco Tuesdays are $1.75 per taco. But the taco flavor is unmatched. The beans were also tasty. However, the rice was too salty for my taste.Overall, if you are in search of a delicious taco in the East Fullerton area, I highly recommend Ponchos Tacos. And when you pick up your order, don't forget to hit the salsa bar next to the counter to load up your tacos with some extra flavor!
