Great tacos, well seasoned meat, fresh ingredients, good size portions. This place has a lot of customers all the time and the staff is very patient and friendly! I would recommend the tacos, you can get all the same meat or mix and match! This place has some traditional style dishes and they have a large menu...making a great place to visit and try new dishes!

I eat at the El Amigo restaurants almost every week. It's my favorite Mexican food around Socal, especially their tacos.

Order at the counter and they'll bring it out. They always promptly serve chips and salsa as soon as I sit down after ordering. The workers are always friendly and happy you are there. And it's affordable with plenty of options.

This location doesn't have alcohol but El Amigo #3 does if you care for that.
