The California burritos are good, and so is the Machaca burrito. Great for food on the go.

I haven't had Sea food from California for a few years now that I have resided in Arizona for over 12 years. I was very disappointed in my meal. I had the 7 Sea Soup. There wasn't enough octopus, maybe 3 small pieces. Could have been more shrimp and clams. The texture of the soup had too much tomato paste. I like more of a bisk. I also wish a tool for the crab legs were given.

I order a surf & turf burrito & 2 chicken tamales through the drive thru thinking it would be convenient & efficient. It took significantly longer than expected while nothing but laughter & banter came from the kitchen. The shrimp used in the burrito was cold and had a sour taste. The chicken tamales had very little chicken & they also forgot to put them in my order which slowed me down even more.All in all this place is a joke. Their food is disgusting and their customer service is awful if you don’t speak Spanish.0-10 would not recommend.

0 stars for service. 3 stars for food. Food was decent but service was horrendous. No wonder there was no line. Would not return ever.

I’ve been coming to this place for over 10 years and spend a decent amount every time. Just experienced the worst service possible. They gave me the wrong order and when I got home I called to let them know she said they don’t remember and just hung up. Tried to reach them again and she pretended she didn’t speak English and disconnected their phone. Safe to say they lost a good customer.

I love this place because you can always count on them being open during the holidays. I work in the service industry and work every holiday; and while most taco shops are closed within all the surrounding areas, our boy Oscar awlays comes through. I went last night and you bet your sweet tuchus I'm going again tonight. LOVE YOU OSCAR

I've been coming here for a few years now and they've always got rude employees. Their food was great at first but each year that goes by it gets worse. My most recent visit, the fries on my food have tasted burnt.

Oh my, my, MY! Kinda dirty, kinda gross, and wholly NASTY. For the second time, their fish burrito was horrendous, disgusting, and unedible! After the first bite I knew something was wrong. I opened the burrito up and looked, mouth agape, and what they were passing for fish. It was grissle-y, greasy, and burnt. Honestly, I wasn't even sure it was fish. My first bite told me it wasn't... and there wasn't going to be a second bite. I wonder how the cooks can rationalize, in their own minds, sending out food like that. Weren't they raised by parents who loved them? I was already home else I would have gone through their drive-through again and thrown that garbage through their window. I mentioned this was my second try of this place... entirely because it's close to home. There won't be a third visit.
