“I’m about a month behind on this review but I love this restaurant! The food is always good and we always get great service. I ordered two Caja Loca packs and some extra stuff for my husband’s birthday back in August. I came by the day before and paid for it all, told them when I needed it, and it was super easy to take care of. I came by the next day and it was hot and ready for us. They were very sweet and the food was incredible. And it fed a bunch of us! Love El Pollito Loco and their staff. Thanks for making my husband’s birthday special. You guys are great!“

“Finally tried this restaurant tonight and I was pleasantly surprised! The food is fresh and authentic. Everything from the chips to our meal to our waiter was wonderful. We will be back again soon!!!!“

“Not flashy, simple, deli kind of set up. almost hole in the wall. My first impression was....ummm..naa..but since my wife picked up the place, I kind of kept quiet and was willing to try it. Boy was I wrong!! This place turned out to be AMAZING. Probably one of the best Mexican food we have had. Ask for a burrito with BBQ sauce inside it.“

“I randomly stumbled into this place last night, and I was honestly really impressed! The Quesabirria were delicious! The tortillas were crispy, the beef was tender and flavorful, and the cheese added a nice richness. The flavors of the onions, cilantro, and lime tied it all together, making for a wonderful eating experience! And let's not forget about the dipping broth, which was packed with flavor! Dipping the tacos in the broth followed by the hot sauce was amazing!

The service was also great. The lady at the counter was really friendly and helped me feel at home. I would highly recommend this place for some really great birria! I hope I get a chance to come back :)“

“Great food and drinks“

“Laid back, excellent service. Amazing cocktails...Jalisco is burning--try it. And creative, delicious food.“

“Authentic Mexican food. I had the chili Relleno which was delicious. The chilequiles verde con carne were a very light green that I have never seen before but they were not lacking in flavor....they were pretty good. The tamales were a bit dry however. Last time we had tacos al pastor which were delicious. The owners are very nice and friendly. A nice find. They only have 4 tables inside. They do mostly takeout...but both times we ate in and noticed alot of repeat customers and the owners greeting them. Nice customer interaction. I will go back and continue to try new things!“

“Great customer service, friendly staff ??. Food is good too“

“Wife had chicken enchiladas, kid had birria tacos and mango flan. Wife gave her food a 5, kid gave his tacos a 4 or 5 but the flan a 2. Said he would eat the tacos again but not the flan. Server was super nice on phone. I ordered food to go. Place was cute and quiet. A lot of choices. I didn't eat cause I had a late lunch.“

“Very friendly staff, & delicious food. Parking's a little bit. VERY GOOD! unique but worth the park. Very reasonably priced, Very low key, clean environment inside. VERY GOOD!“

“My wife and I hired them to do a food truck for after our wedding reception. 15/10 decision. The tacos were incredible esp the General Tso chicken and the bang shrimp tacos. Plus the leftovers that weren't served at the reception hall made great afterparty food. If you like tacos and want to give your late night party crowd a treat after a fun night, highly recommend Tacoholics!“

It was also more food than we expected, and was very well packed for transport. We’ve enjoyed the experience of dining at Sofia’s, and now also the catered g experience.“

“First time here. Ordered a pineapple 🍍 margarita. It's good except it doesn't taste like pineapple 😞🍍. Where is the sliced pineapple on the cup and the maraschino 🍒? But for the sake of not being high maintenance, I will end it here. Just asked. They don't have pineapples. lol“

“An authentic Mexican restaurant with a variety of options. I’m not the most expert in Mexican food, but I really liked what I had there. The food was fresh and the lamb tastes great. The inside atmosphere is so energetic and very colorful. The staff were nice and accommodating. Outside street parking is available but usually full during rush hours. Prices are ok, most are average, a little bit overpriced on few dishes. Overall very nice experience and recommended.“

“Buena la comida“

“My only issue was the ordering. First, when I sign into the app it keeps on sending me a link to click to get back into the app, which is annoying. Second, I clicked through online based on a coupon and started ordering, but when I signed in the promo disappeared and I had to keep logging out and in to get it. The app needs to be improved.“
