The people are nice and service is fast. The shrimp and fish tacos are good. However, two of six of my tacos didn't have doubled up tortillas and started breaking
The food is very very good. It smells like Mexico when you walk in and I can't really explain that. Maybe homemade tortillas. It smells fresh and the food is always great. Only bad thing I could say is that bathroom gross. Service is very nice and fast
Been wanting to try this place out for a while now. Got their Thursday promo: bogo free taco, choose from asada, carnitas, and pollo. You can mix and match. I got their carnitas and asada tacos with everything. Very good flavors and the salsa has a kick to it. They have a small bar with pickled purple onions, sliced lemons, and roasted/grilled(?) jalapeños. They're really quick and the place is clean. The parking isn't packed, just a short walk over. I'll def be back for their fish tacos.
Fresh tacos everytime. I love all their tacos but my favorite has got to be fish. Decent prices and the best part of this place is they always bring out condiments whenever it runs out. The staff works quick and is a local fav place. I appreciate the team for ensuring customers are able to have onions/lemons/chile on their tacos. Shoutout to the team!! Even when they run out, they tell you to wait and they cut and bring out more. But please only take what you can eat so they can keep prices low. I would like to gatekeep this spot but I do want them to keep having business and support so they can stay open!
Definitely one of the better locations of Tacos Ensenada. Fish tacos are a must! There's usually a clean table open when I dine-in. I prefer coming here rather than to the East LA or Alhambra locations.
