Vallarta has the best biggest burritos in town and they are DELICIOUS. And you've got to try the Christian fries it's a pile of french fries covered in guac sour cream cheese carne asada add fried eggs bring two people to eat that because it's huge

They have changed to hot sauce packets. They are hard to open and use. Food is excellent!

$18 for drive-thru nachos is bonkers. Opted for enchiladas. They were Luke warm so cold while eating them. Salsa offered was in packets, not homemade. Way overrated.

This was my favorite taco shop, service and quality has gone downhill. On my last visit I got hot sauce packets with rancid sauce.

Food was good and meat was not salty so that was appreciated. However the carne asada was cut into nice chunks they definitely mixed in old meat or over coocked dried meat that was noticeable and I had to separate and throw away. Portions were not what I expected. California burrito tasted good but they were very skimpy on everything in the burrito. I also got the fish taco which was ok. Over packed on the cabbage and not enough sauce. Hardly any inside seating so not a good idea for a family to expect to sit and eat

Ordered bean tostada and shredded beef taco. Both lacked any flavor regardless how much hot sauce i poured on them. The taco was almost all lettuce. The tostada was a sloppy mess and soggy. I will not eat there again.

I have been to Vallartas many time for a number of their items and they are all great. I love their hot sauce and their California burritos. If you’re in the area and are looking for quality Mexican food this place is worth checking out.

They charge .50¢ per credit card purchase, so pay with cash. Dependably good, open late. Outdoor seating mostly covered. Drive thru. The 4 beef rolled tacos for @$10 are smothered in cheese and a guacamole and sour cream mix over lettuce. I usually ask for no lettuce. This time they weren't crispy in the middle of the roll, they were a bit soggy.
What would work better is using more sustainable to-go containers rather than Styrofoam.

The food itself was pretty bland, but the salsa was pretty decent. Asada was a little dry and the adobada was pretty tasteless. Service was quick even with a big line. The main redeeming qualities is that it is 24 hours and the portions are huge. Would be worth trying somewhere else

Fantastic for a quick bite on the go or for ordering in on a chill night. Everything always tastes fresh and at a great price.

I have been going to this location for almost ten years and now I won't ever be back. The past 4 times we've eaten here the food is poorly put together making the meal more messy then it needs to be I've been a cook for over 15 years and I can tell when the people making my food don't care and this location doesn't care one bit

We used to love the chile relleno burrito here but we ate it today and it was really bad for a $14 takeaway burrito!
There was no rice, barely any beans, no pico de gallo, we got squash instead of extra fajita veggies which used to be bell peppers and onions we paid for.. may be they got a new cook but it just went from my go to place to not going there anymore

This has been our go to taco shop for a while. However they’ve disappointed me the last few times. You need to make sure you’re VERY specific on what you want or they just give you what they think. Last few times they have messed up my orders and it’s extremely annoying considering we don’t live close by at all. Yes the burritos have always been bomb but the service is beyond me! They’ve lost a loyal customer just because of that unfortunately.
