Had the fish taco. It was flavorful and fresh. Staff was friendly and served complimentary dipping beans, chips and salsa. Salsas were made well with good flavor and heat. Its was worth trying this place.

wow. the most AMAZING carne asada tacos. goodness gracious. 10/10. the meat is SO well seasoned. the salsa is perfect. the pickled carrots!!!! what a delightful surprise. the tacos are huge and I have zero regrets. I went on a slow monday afternoon, so the lady brought my tacos to my seat and then offered to bring me ice water!! that was such a simple gesture that I appreciated.

I have been looking for some bomb Mexican food by my place since I moved to Lake Forest at the end of 2023. I drove past this spot more than 50 times because it would be just too convenient. If I fell out of my second story window I might land there with a good bounce. Last Friday I placed an order online and I picked it up on time and hot 15 minutes later, with plastic utensils napkins and way too many salsas without having to ask. Taquitos and a burrito. Best Mexican food I have had in a very long time. One of the salsa's put a dent in me. I have not been able to sit down for a week! I can't wait to go back. Seriously I will be back. Thank you Tacos Ensenada.

My husband and I have gone back several times staking family and friends. Sadly in this last visit I got the ceviche and they didn’t clean the shrimp so I only ate about half of it. Other than that I love it. You can see the shrimp line in the side of my plate

Small mom and pops shop. Great deals and specials with fast service. Salsa bar and ice cold horchatas. Going out for Mexican food has gotten so expensive these days. But Tacos Ensenada has kept the pricing affordable.

The service was good, the atmosphere ok, but the food was below par, especially for the price. I thought it would be difficult to not get a simple burrito right, but this was almost flavorless al pastor, very watery and greasy, with higher than average gristle and fat content. Very little onion, pepper, rice, cilantro, and NO pineapple as expected for al pastor, at the expense of globbed on refried beans. The steak fajitas looked like the same meat, so I wonder if I really got al pastor or just their vat of beef. I did like the self service salsa bar with the usual carrots, lemons (no limes), and 3 types of salsa. With so many others much better nearby, I will not be returning.
