Ordered out a couple weeks ago, carnitas nachos, and pulled a metal grill bristle brush out of my mouth. Said I wouldn't eat here again. Everyone in my party out voted me today, so I got 7 mares, because I figured it wouldn't be on the grill. About 5 bites in I pull my spoon from the bottom of the bowl and there is a dead fly on a piece of celery.

This place trumps el compita! The quality and freshness of the mariscos is always on point I come at least once a week for a tostada de camarón with pulpo.

The lazy bald owner was sitting down in a table, while there were no employees. I had to stand there waiting until an employee finally came from the back and the careless owner saw me there and didn’t bother to care or help at all. Keep in mind, the restaurant was completely empty at lunchtime (now I know why). If that wasn’t bad enough, the food I ordered was so horrendous that it wasn’t even edible. I ordered asada fries, and the fries were so greasy that they dripped in oil when I picked them up with the fork. Disgusting. Not even McDonald’s has fries that greasy. Don’t waste your money here. If I could give a 0 star I would.

A neighborhood staple. We normally get burritos made to order. They are quick and they are fresh and delicious. When you want authentic and want to help out your local eatery can't get better than this!

Good food. Great service. Wife loved the fish tacos. Burrito was hot and fresh. Fast service too!
I’m always on the hunt for great authentic Mexican food while traveling for work. And this place is hands down one of the best in California that I’ve tried. I highly recommend the Tacos Vampiras. They make them with love just like being at a friends backyard bbq. The beers are amazing too. I never knew regular cheap beer could be fancied up with so much great flavor! I would eat here everyday if I lived in this area.
I used to go to this place every Tuesday in college and they had the best carnitas ever and service was super chill.Recently went on a Tues and they weren't open with no explanation but I won't detract from their score for a possible fluke.
This place makes the best burritos hands down! The owner seemed like a very friendly man, his staff were also friendly, helpful, and meticulous. The lady preparing tje burrito took her time to ensure a good ratio of beans, rice, and meat, in addition to placement, resulting in a delicious meal. Every bite had the perfect amount of food in it. I hate eating a burrito that is full of either rice or beans and has little meat. Loved this place! I traveled from the East Bay to enjoy an excellent burrito. Wish I had a picture to show, it was so scrumptious I didn't have time for a photo.
I don't understand why this place is busy I have never enjoyed the food here. Kinda salty and the shrimp tostada was gross. Salsa bar was sad. Some of the workers don't speak English.
