Food is good, pricing is fair, salsa is tasty and spicy. Not much more you can ask for, for tacos and burritos.

We expected this place to be a lot better and overall clean. When we got home and opened our order, we found the bottom of our cups had remains of food and blood stains from Raw meat. When I looked into the kitchen there was salsa placed on the floor, Freshly cooked meat was right next to a garbage can in a PLASTIC container. Raw meat was hanging off of the Grill, literally hanging. The cook did not wash his hands, no matter how many times he touched his face or whipped his hands on his apron, he used his anpron to clean the cups annd sides of the orders and plates he was selling and continued to process orders. When I reached out to speak to someone rather than write this review I was forwarded to Voice mail and when actually speaking to someone they did not care to listen to my concerns. I would rather tell the manager what went wrong than to write this review. Please keep your kitchen CLEAN and staff trained on proper operating procedure and practices especially when serving and handling any and all food.

I think I just had three of the best tacos of 2024. I walked in here expecting things to be good l, but DAMN these were some delicious tacos. Quesabirria, fried fish, and grilled shrimp were unreal! Brought together with two perfect salsas, the tacos were flavorful, distinct, and filling. You don’t want to miss El Bandito.

Just got an asada burrito special order just meat! No lie! Best freakin burrito I've had in a long time! Man, I can't get over it! Meat was soooo freakin' good! Put some onion, cilantro, lime, and green salsa, ooooh weeee boy! That thang was amazing! Red salsa super spicy, but slapped some of the green and dabbed tiny little dots of the red( I mean tiny), it hit the spot foreal! Thanks to the counter guy for making it happen! Only meat burritos aren't on the menu, but he for sure hooked it up! Man! It was so damn good! 🤤. Please don't the change the asada! It's perfect! Can't wait to try other menu items! No photo, Nothing left to photo. was gonna share with my dog 🐶, but nah, that fool ain't gettin none of my burrito baby!

For pozole and menudo, visit them on Saturday and Sundays. Very delicious and taste homemade! Tacos are bomb too, always made fresh. Love the asada, carnitas, suadero, al pastor tacos. They automatically come with guacamole but you can ask for it on the side or without. Hard to find suadero tacos around town! Their giant sopes and mulitas are delicious and shareable!

Solid Mexican food albeit nothing super amazing.

Halal options include:
1) Asada
2) Chicken
3) Birria (including the consome)

Prices are excellent and portions are big so you'll definitely get the bang for your buck.

Dietary restrictions: Halal meat options available.

The carne asada burrito was very good and so were the carne asada fries. Service was good. Recommend for anyone in the Tustin area and wants some solid Mexican food.

Looking for some really good Mexican food, then stop by the place. I had a crispy chicken taco and a flour quesadilla with al pastor. They were perfect and I will come back.

Found a piece of wire in my burrito. Probably from a wire brush. This is the second time I found objects in my burrito from here.
