Taqueria Don Tacho absolutely blew me away with their aguachile. Hands down the best I’ve ever had—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat and tang. The shrimp were spot on, the sauce was vibrant and zesty, and the red onion added the perfect crunch. Paired with chips and an ice-cold beer, it was pure perfection.
If you’re in the mood for authentic flavors that will make you crave more, this is the spot. A hidden gem that deserves all the love—can’t wait to come back!

Greasy tortilla and carne asada meat was chewy and full of gristle, cheap cuts of meat

The food was decent we ordered carne asada steak tacos they tasted really good. There is a salsa bar w all the toppings for street tacos. However, the gentleman upfront took our order wrong. We sat waiting extra long time to find out only half our order was entered and he made it sound like it was our error, rather than an apology. The place inside is tiny and dated but clean, and the bathroom is in the path to tables, they should at least add air freshener or spray so order doesn't carry when folks open the door.

We’ve tried almost all the taco places in town, and these are some of the best! Other standouts are their burritos, enchiladas, empanadas, and specially their shrimp and Al pastor tacos are amazing. But really every meat choice is great. The tortillas are not “freshly made” I don’t think, but the meats are amazing here and they really give you a lot for the price.
Place could use some cleaning and care in the seating area and bathroom. But we continue to come back again and again and bring people who visit us. They love the food everytime and that’s what’s most important!

Don Tacho is amazing!! Great prices and fantastic food!! My family and I usually get the carnitas family dinner with 2 pounds of meat, a 16 oz beans and rice. You can't go wrong when your feeding a large group, it goes a long way and you even have leftovers!! I definitely recommend this place! I highly suggest getting the grilled Jalapeños and onions!
Very sparse and modest interior, but super friendly service and good vegan food make up for its lack of atmosphere (don't be fooled by it).
You order food at the front counter, reading from a posted menu, asking questions of the server and easily negotiating the ingredients you want added or omitted, then have a seat at the limited number of tables in the back. The layout is awkwardly unique, but it works if you're not too picky.
I ordered a vegan mushroom soup with cactus added as an option, served with corn flour tortillas; freshly made guacamole and tortilla chips; and a sumptuous vegan burrito (which I saved for breakfast the following day, it was great).
This is a hidden gem, some locals in this small town don't even know about it.

I come here once a month for an al pastor burrito and it hits every time. Price is great. Taste is even better!

I live in vandenberg! Got my order wrong, went back to pick up my new burrito they were very nice and confirmed it was right! Read my order back to me, went home and it was wrong again! Called to try and get it fixed, placed on hold and then they would hang up! Not happy at all.

Some places claim to have a Military Discount when at times a $95 multi-meal order for multiple people, only get .95 cents off the whole meal with that Military discount there. Flashback from a previous time. To top it off they want an official Miltary ID when you may have literally an official “Veteran” Imprint on your California ID, a Veteran Park pass and another Veteran form of ID for post-service verification as proof of service. I mean who else is supposed to have the Multiple Proofs we have. Please owner in charge of this establishment , I urge you to do some research on how us Veterans May Verify our proof of service, WITH MULTIPLE forms of ID, multiple.
If your reply is: Well they are enlisted and have an ID, what does it serve those that are currently enlisted, to when they are out of the service, and also show you their other Forms of proof of prior military service, that does not include an Authentic Military ID to kindly ask for a Military Discount? Please and thank you for your time.
