El Gallo Giro — Restaurant in Anaheim

We've been coming to El Gallo Giro for what seems like forever. This is one of their newer locations. Since we were in the Anaheim area we decided to check it out. We were surprisingly disappointed. We used to LOVE their carne asada. Now it tastes like it has no flavor. The tamal was ok, the Caldo de Res lacked flavor, the quesadilla and tacos de Busche were probably the best items. The burrito was just ok, the carnitas inside the burrito were on the dry side and lacked flavor. We were also disappointed that they didn't have some of our favorite agua flavors like Mango or Fresa de leche. It's one of their smaller locations but has outdoor seating. The pan dulce selection is tiny compared to some of their valley or downtown locations. Maybe we'll stick to some of the other locations and keep to select items. Also, we were mostly disappointed by the cost. I know prices are high everywhere, but these prices seems ridiculously high. Our family of 5 used to eat here for $60, today the bill came to $110. $15 for a bowl of soup with 3 small pieces of meat and root vegetables? Come on, not even Disneyland's bowl of soup is...

I totally loved it at this El Gallo Giro. I have been to many different locations but by far this has been the best experience ever. The staff was beyond nice helpful polite and knowledge.

I paid just as much as I would have at IHOP or Denny's but with a much homier feel. I would not mind returning to this location or recommending for someone to visit this location. It has a very spacious parking lot as it is in a plaza with other stores it has outdoor seating and indoor although the indoor seating is not available yet. I am not afraid to mention that I asked for restroom service and I was happy that they allow customers to use restrooms and maintain it super clean. The portion sizes are really huge so I recommend for one plate be shared amongst to but if you can eat those portion sizes all on your own go for it. To my surprise they offer breakfast lunch and...
