14 Best Taco Restaurants in Garden Grove

“Hands down the best al pastor tacos in orange county and dare I say LA as well. I have been to hundreds of taco stands and food trucks in every big city and small town from Yuba County to San Diego. This place is top 3 for sure in all of California but I would say number 1 in South LA OC area“

“Excelente Servicio al Cliente y Deliciosa comida todo muy rico Se los recomiendo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is a phenomenal, authentic old-school Mexican eatery bursting with flavor and priced right. You best believe the two ladies behind the counter know the meaning of auténtico. My tacos were cooked to order on homemade tortillas. I dressed mine up with some toppings from the salsa bar. When I sent a pic to my dad, he said “When they have radishes it’s usually a good bet.” He nailed it.

I went with birria and carne asada. The meat is juicy and tender, with the perfect blend of spices and seasoning. The aromas from the grill made my mouth water. The condiment bar is loaded with different cremas, a tangy salsa verde with charred peppers, radish, onion, and carrot.

This is an honest-to-goodness SoCal treasure and it’s only a few minutes from the Magic Park.“

“the closest you will come to legitimate TJ tacos.“

“First time there,can’t believe we passed by it all these years Definitely will be back,there’s so many things I want to try“

“DELICIOUS birria. Great price. Got a family meal and they forgot my tortillas and I had to come back, so they gave me free tacos and an horchata. It wasn't until I got back home AGAIN that I realized they also forgot my sides of rice and beans LOLIll be back for sure, but I won't leave without checking my order.“

“I always swing by and get a chili cheese burger and chili cheese fries when I'm in California 👌🏼🙌 deliciousness !!!“

“First and foremost, I'm not sure why it has so many negative reviews. Yesterday, my girlfriend and I went to try all of the taco trucks posted at Haster Park. We did one taco per truck and this is where we started to see which tacos were the best. This location was the clear winner among the taco trucks (there were three in total). The fresh made tortillas are out of this world, and the meats we had, al pastor and carne asada, were the best of the best. Sure, they were a little more expensive at $3 per taco, but they were larger and made with fresh hand-made tortillas. After trying all of the tacos, I ended up ordering three more.“

“I've had carne asada fries from many different restaurants and food trucks and this is hands down the best carne asada fries I've ever had. My husband had the chicken wet burrito and that was amazing as well. Definitely will be coming back to this food truck. 10/10 I do recommend!“

“I was just randomly driving around when I spotted Chava’s Street Tacos—and the line of people immediately caught my attention. Figured that was a good sign, so I pulled over… and I’m really glad I did.

The tacos were absolutely incredible—packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. And I don’t say that lightly. These aren’t just the best tacos in Garden Grove… they’re easily some of the best in all of Orange County.

But what really made the experience stand out was the people behind the cart. From the moment I walked up, they treated me like family—super welcoming, friendly, and genuine. That kind of hospitality is rare and made the whole experience even better.

Great food, amazing vibes, and even better people. If you see that line—get in it. It’s 100% worth it.“

“Visited here specifically for their Tres Leches Cake, which is their most popular cake.

Parking: There's a large parking lot with plenty of spots. There's 30 min spots in front of the store too.

Ambiance/Environment: They have a small space. All the pastries, cakes, and hot items are displayed and labeled. They have plenty of pastries but very limited cakes. There is no seating whatsoever. It's a quick grab-n-go location.

Service: I was warmly greeted by the cashier. Unfortunately, I did not catch her name. She helped me pick out the cake and nicely wrapped it in a box. Some workers speak English, while others only speak Spanish.

Cakes & offerings: All their pastries are decorated beautifully and look delicious. Again, I mainly came for their Tres Leches Cake. Their cakes are 8 inches. Perfect size to feed a family. They offer slices of cakes as well and smaller decorative cakes. Now I know why their Tres Leches Cake is so popular! The cake is absolutely moist and not too sweet! The fruits were fresh. I think it would've been better without the excessive amount of buttercream, but it was easy to scrape off. I really enjoyed this!

Pricing: The cake was $43.67 after taxes. Pretty decent prices compared to supply chain bakeries. Highly recommend their Tres Leches Cake! Will be back to try their pastries!“

“The above only applies to the morning staff. Felix is great in dealing with the customers, and the female staff are fantastic.

As for the evening staff they are rude.they serve stale fries, the short on curly fries, and they deny veterans discounts. I won't come here in the evening.“

“I highly recommend getting the cheesy rice bean burrito for an amazing $1.50 price, which is already an amazing deal, and it's pretty tasty, I'd say it's my favorite taco bell burrito

Vegetarian options: Not a lot of vegetarian options, but it makes up in taste“
