“El Sabor Del Tio is a hidden Gem. Everytime I want Mexican food, I go to them first. Their food is noticeably authentic and fresh. My dad and I have been going to them for the last 2 or 3 years now, and still can’t find a better place when in other cities. They have the absolute best breakfast chorizo burrito I’ve ever had so I recommend that if you’re feeling breakfast, but anything you order will be amazing. They are the sweetest family, and very hard working people.“

“Looks very much like a mom and pop should

We found parking on the street. Not sure if there is more in the back. Landed at 4:45 and the space was empty. By the time we left around 6:15, the place was pretty busy.

Chips tasted generic but salsa was decent. Ended up getting additional serving while looking at the very large menu.

We got a mix of dishes including a side of chile relleno. We also got a steak dish with a chile relleno included and the side dish piece was twice as large as the one that came with the steak. Presentation was good overall.

Tamarind margarita had a good balance of flavors

The steak was small but seasoned well. Went well with the soft corn tortillas. Beans were standard as was the rice. The seasoned, sautéed onions with the steak were good. Relleno was good. Beef taco tasted like Taco Bell but was better stuffed.

The check I couldn’t make head or tail out of but the sum seemed right.

Worth a second visit.“

“I have only been here two times as I moved to the area right before the government stole the freedom of Americans to move about freely... that being said, this visit - IN PERSON - was excellent! Matt, the bartender answered several questions and made a couple suggestions. I went with one of them (Carnitas and Scratch Margarita) and was pleasantly impressed with both! The crowd was fun, the staff was doing an excellent job (having been in the industry for 24 years myself) taking care of the business and caring for the clients. Thank you and I WILL be back again!“

“Taco time is so much better than the other guys in my opinion!

I’m a picky vegetarian with GI issues and several sensitivities which limit my options for fast food (let alone just trying to find quality fast food). I almost never eat out — partly because I’m a picky eater, and partly because most places leave me feeling weighed down or give me stomach aches. But Taco Time has been such a pleasant surprise! The quality of the food is consistently fresh and flavorful, and I actually feel good after eating here.

Even without a mock meat option yet (which I hope they’ll add in the future along with other veggie options), there are still plenty of vegetarian-friendly choices like crisp bean burritos, veggie tacos, bowls, and salads with fresh salsa and guacamole, etc. The portions are decent for the quality and price, and you really taste the difference in the ingredients compared to typical fast food.

The staff here are always friendly and efficient — my order is ready quickly, and they get it right every time. For a quick-service healthy spot, Taco Time really stands out in terms of quality, freshness, and customer care. It’s one of the only fast food places I actually trust.

Thanks for giving me a nice option when I don't have the time or energy to cook!“

“stopped by early afternoon on a sunday for drinks & apps after paragliding down the road, They didn't have the tequila we requested however the bartender suggested something different which we ended up liking anyhow. Our waitress seemed as if she was new to her job but she ended up being ok. Nachos & drinks were great, the restaurant was on the quiet side, the bathrooms & dining room/bar was very clean & cool. Overall we were happy at our decision to stop in .“

He showed remarkable hospitality, compassion, and kindness, assisting my grandfather right away. This level of care and attentiveness really stood out and showed how much they care for customer of all ages. Now my grand father believes it's the nicest place to be with best tasting food . Qdoba's commitment to customer service is truly impressive, and kudos to Muhammad for making a lasting impression.😊“

“I’ve always loved Taco Bell. The food is consistently delicious, and the combo meals are a great deal. It’s one of my favorite go-to spots for a quick bite. That said, I do wish there was more awareness around how items are fried. Frying things like chicken nuggets and fries in the same oil can be a concern for people with allergies or dietary restrictions. It would be amazing if there were clearer information or separate fryers to help avoid cross-contamination. Still a big fan, just hoping for a bit more care in this area.“
