Everything was bland, not good at all. Where is the flavor, there are no spices. Seriously, $17.95 and the carne asada tastes like they cut the meat and cooked it plane. I’ve had better more flavorful rice in a cowboys house in Oklahoma. Beans taste out of a can. Spoonful of guacamole and pico.. They hooked me up with a lot of lettuce though. That was the best part. Asked for flour tortillas got corn and one had a hard edge. To make it complete thy just needed to kick me in the butt and say, TOMA!

Quick bite after church before our fast starts and we found a new favorite taco spot 🌮 The tortilla tasted just like one I had in Mexico. So authentic—definitely coming back!

Valerie’s is one of our favorite spots to eat a quick meal. The staff is always friendly and fast to take our orders. They keep the inside very clean, as well as the kitchen area. We haven’t had any issues with the food, and if there is any issues with our order they are always helpful.

Finally found a taco shop that reminds me of home! The best shredded beef tacos I’ve had so far. Don’t even get me started on their breakfast burritos yall. New favorite taco spot. Oh!!! and their salsa, especially the creamy green one is enough to get 5 stars on its own 🤤 definitely coming back here for taco Tuesday!

The food here is solid—definitely not the greatest I’ve ever had, but far from the worst. Little bit on the pricier side but serving sizes are good. Like most places, some items on the menu are better than others. I’ve tried quite a few things off the menu so far. I’d recommend the burritos, tortas, or the carne asada fries, which are consistently the better tasting choices. Can’t go wrong with an order of churros for dessert and a Agua de Jamaica to wash it down either.
I also really like that this location is open 24/7 and has a drive thru. I regularly grab food here late at night, so having a spot that’s always open is a big plus. On top of that, shoutout to the beautiful lady at the cashier—she’s always very helpful and makes sure I get plenty of sauces, which honestly goes a long way. Overall, it’s a dependable spot with a few standout menu items, great late-night availability, and friendly service. Would recommend if you’re looking for something to eat and are in the area already.

The food they prepared for me was not what is on the menu. I ordered pollo asada and the menu said it is white meat and what I got was chicken thigh meat. I don’t eat dark meat what so ever. I ended up throwing it out. Waste of money and food.

Unfortunately giving this location a terrible review because of what happened.
Briefly, we started coming here weekly about 2 months ago because the food got the spot when we craved some good carniasada. They are not cheap, the menu items are what they are. Anyways a week ago we went and only got a few small things (because of the price) and the total was $68. I didn't think much of it, they are expensive. But my wife reminded me we only got a few things and the cost shouldn't be that high. I already paid and as she returned with the food I questioned the price. She went to get some help and what seemed like 5 minutes later she hangs me a receipt saying she must've accidentally overcharged me by $25, the refund will go to my account on a couple days.
Guess what, it hasn't. Not sure what I'm going to do but they need to make things right.

NUT TACO 🥜 🌮
I came here around 11pm, the young lady repeated my order 3 times and somehow still got it wrong. I was not given any guacamole in my tacos. I ordered the el jefe tacos with no spicy sauce and it was still put on my tacos. I go to the location on Alma Rd and ive never got an el jefe taco with french fries and no onions, cilantro, or bacon?! Very Lazy location. I spent about 40$
