“The flavor of your food is yummy! The meats are tender & there's good amount in each taco & burrito. Tortillas are very good & fresh. Not a bad thing to say about this food truck!“

“Excellent flavors Excellent service We will definitely be back“

“Everything here is a 10! From the service to the drinks and tacos, no complaints here 🫶 the attentiveness and kindness of the staff is unmatched. And there’s no place that does complimentary chips and salsa anymore. But this place comes in clutch 👌“

“Good service and great food.“

“The most creative menu and remarkable Mexican food I have had in years. Everything was unique, obviously make with care and love. Can't wait to return. The beautiful restaurant is loaded with heart and very soulful. These folks know about feeding the heart.“

“I have come here nearly every week or so for years. I order my specific order but I really enjoy the carne asada with the hot (spicy) salsa. I try this order in many many places and it's just not the same...Sandra at the front is really sweet and you'll enjoy a nice lunch here. PS. If you want it just ask for it“

“Good food Good service Good price Will be back!!!“

“Good mex...no frills here. Portions ate more than adequate. They make there own mild salsa, but options with more spice are bottled. The cleanliness could use some support. I would opt for food to go next time. The better news is I would come back. Lots of mex choices on the central coast. This one is not on the main drag but their prices reflect that...good value for money. They have a few standard mex beers on tap including Negra Modello.“

“The most amazing taqueria! Our friend group has been obsessed with Leslie’s ever since they started parking out front of Campus Bottle! This past weekend we had them cater our graduation party and it was the cherry on top of grad weekend. Not only was the service AMAZING the tacos were PHENOMENAL! Can’t recommend them enough. We are going to miss Leslie’s so much as we leave SLO post grad!“

“the shredded chicken taco was my fav. got the shredded chicken, shrimp and pork tacos. we clap got a california burrito and birria taco. super laid back and great salsa selections. the spicy green one really comes with a kick. nice to eat outside on a sunny day.“

“I've been eating at Taco Roco for at least 25 years. Pretty sure it's still some of the same employees just a different location. The staff is wonderful! It's almost more of a Gringo style in my opinion, but always amazing flavor. As long as they're open I'll still be eating here. Their salsa that comes with the chips, and the creamy green salsa are my two favorite salsas in the world! My favorite torta as well!“

“I’ve only ordered delivery from San Luis Taqueria, so I can’t speak to the in-restaurant vibe—but the food? Absolutely top notch. Their chips are thick, fresh-fried, and totally addictive. I’m obsessed with their carne asada nachos, and the ability to fully customize a burrito through their online ordering system is a game-changer. I’ve had a burrito from them every week for the past month—I think I might be hooked. Everything tastes fresh, well-seasoned, and satisfying. Bonus points for the free chips and two types of salsa that come with every delivery. My new favorite burrito spot in SLO!“

“Delicious tacos, I got four on the Tuesday special. Was disappointed that both online and in store they had beer advertised but it was unavailable. Just cover up the menu items please if its not an option. Chicken was kinda bland chorizo/asada great!“

“Great Huevos Rancheros Tacos. Will definitely be back!!!“

“Lo mejor de San Luis obispo en comida mexicana !! El karaoke su música muy alegre muy buena atención al público“

“My family had a fantastic experience at SLO Quesadilla Gorilla! We tried the Chicky Chicky Parm Parm, a Nutella quesadilla, a cheese quesadilla, chips and queso, and churro chips with caramel sauce—everything was absolutely delicious. The portions are generous, and we even had plenty of leftovers to enjoy later. Great quality for the price—we’ll definitely be back!“

“it is a great place with large portions of yummy food..will try pineapple milkshake next time“

“This is an amazing spot with great food! Highly recommend“

“Amazing reliable food. I'm a breakfast burrito junkie. They had all kinds of options. I like the outdoor seating options. Was in town for a wedding. It was the first place we had breakfast. Ended yp doing it again the next day. If I lived in town I would definitely be eating more of the menu.

Service was friendly and I didn't wait ling in line or to get the food. Good portions too.“

“I love coming to Chicho’s. They always take care of me and make me feel welcome! The food is fantastic, they try to get it to you consistently fast and if they ever get anything wrong they more than make up for it.

Come out and get the chicken Taquitos but make sure to get 5 because 3 isn’t enough!“

“Great place to go after a performance or game for us cal poly drumline. The food here is delicious with great portions. The agua frescas are exceptionally great and staff is quick and super kind. Seating space could be better but with a limited building space and popularity in the area, it's understandable.“

“Pretty good spot. The food was a little expensive when comparing to other spots but I do like the taste. I think there best highlight are the salsas to be honest! It is right next to downtown so if you're at the bars late night, def the spot to go to“

“I truly recomend, everything is fresh and made by the order I traveled from Playas de Rosarito baja ca to sanluis obispo to try these fruit and aguas frescas . And wow, I might need to make the trip more often. I brought back variety for my family everything is fresh very good everything“

“Super El Pollo LOCO 👌👌👍👍!“
