I don’t care what anyone says… Tasty Choice is serving up chili cheese fries and carne asada fries that belong in the food hall of fame. You ever eat something so wild it makes you mad at every version you’ve had before? That’s what happened here.
We pulled up expecting good, maybe even great. But what we got was absolutely ridiculous in the best way. Chili cheese fries stacked high with meaty chili, beans, melted cheese that stretches like it’s trying to show off, and fries that somehow stay crispy under all that weight. This isn’t some snack. This is a life moment.
The Carne Asada Fries Nobody Talks About But Everyone Needs to Try
Let me be real for a second. I only ordered the carne asada fries because no one online was talking about them and I wanted to see what was up. And now I’m mad. Mad that nobody screamed at me to try these sooner. The steak is juicy and packed with flavor, like it came off a grill at your uncle’s backyard cookout. Combine that with golden fries and creamy cheese? You’re gonna black out from happiness.
And Then the Sandwiches Showed Up and Wrecked My Life
We got the club sandwich with extra bacon and I’m telling you right now… this sandwich doesn’t just hit. It punches, hugs, and writes a love song to your taste buds. It’s crunchy, smoky, salty, and stacked so high it needed its own seat at the table.
Then came the steak sandwich. I took one bite and looked around like… wait, how is this not forty dollars? It was that good. Tender steak, perfect bread, flavor in every bite. If you’re thinking about skipping it, don’t.

Like bring a second stomach kind of massive.
Pro Tips Because I Got You: • Order both the chili cheese fries and the carne asada fries. You need both. Trust me. • Sandwiches here are secret weapons. Don’t sleep. • Come hungry. Like “skipped breakfast and lunch” hungry. • Prices are chill and the food is wild. Best combo. • It gets busy but the wait is worth it. Every single time.

Read moreWill never return to this location after coming for so many years after tonight you will be losing customers for sure. So disrespectful on top of they don’t value there customers I arrived at the speaker at 8:40pm when they close at 9pm after a long shift at work I was stopping for some dinner for my family. They just took a car ahead of me a minute prior. They refused service because they had to “clean” I mentioned to the girl the car ahead of me just ordered she answered no they have been here a while I also told her your sign says you close at 9pm also online it’s 20 min prior to closing in that case you should say you close at 8:30 pm if you don’t want to pay your employers to stay after 9pm. I asked to speak to a manager. The girl said “the jefe”? Not professional but I answered yes and she said well he said we’re closed and we won’t be taking your order and I said okay we’ll I’d still like to speak to him and she said okay we’ll you can wait until you get to the window “but we’re not taking your order !” Owner learn professionalism learn if a customer would like to speak to you regarding a matter you’d be courteous enough to attend to the matter and not turn away a customer without speaking to them. As I passed your staff were not cleaning they were standing around laughing along with the other worker who popped his head out to see who was at the speaker. Everyone reading this do not go to this burger stand they clearly don’t value there customers there’s much better burger stands down the street like Jim’s burger on amar very good tasting food may be better then this restaurant and the owners are so so sweet and polite and value...
Read moreTheir charbroiled chicken sandwich is a dream. I love that it comes on the soft bun that they use for their hamburgers. It comes with mayo, and lettuce and tomato. I notice that they have the good sense to flatten out the breast in a way that makes it pleasant to eat instead of leaving you to sort out the hunks of meat. The fries could be stepped up, but that's the case at many burger joints in SoCal. The burger is 9.00 which is about the same or less than a Carl's Jr. Chicken Club, but what you're eating is less processed. I love places like this. Local people...
