High Desert Tacos and more.. — Restaurant in Hesperia

The wet burrito was a great sauce however I ordered carnitas WHICH I HAVE TO SAY WERE SUPER MOIST but I’m Latina and maybe I costed TJ too much but I like the fry crisp edges of carnitas but theirs were just soft and super moist as if baked. Add a lil salt and they were bomb I just miss the crisp. The hot Cheetos asada burrito well that was for my kid and the nacho cheese made it soggy and he didn’t even finish it which I was surprised. The torta bread was super crisp but the birria (beef) lacked flavor. Geez I sound like such a fatty but we love food and good food that costs a lot is always worth it. I feel the prices are super fair and they made MASSIVE sized burritos which was awesome but sad to say the al pastor burrito I had tasted like flavored asada that was dry but the RICE inside the burrito was super bomb. If o ever went back I would order a bean rice and cheese burrito because the rice inside was amazing. The workers were super nice and helpful the PLACE WAS SUPER CLEAN so I feel bad rating it a 3 but with the tiny parking lot and the lack of flavor in the food it’s unlikely I would go back. To each their own maybe you will like it! I like that it seems they started out of a food truck and ended up with their own restaurant which I love the story and they should be proud we gotta support the local businesses so try them out maybe you will like it. If I ever want to buy a cup I rice I will go...

I have been in search of great Birria tacos for the past couple of years, and I finally found them. They are Big, juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. I can't help saying Mmm every time I take a bite.

I usually order the Quesabirria Special with light cheese, that way I can taste more of the delicious mouth watering shredded meat. It comes with 3 Big tacos. (Hand in the picture to compare). They put a good helping of meat, so it's quit filling. I can usually only eat 2 tacos and have to share the 3rd. The tacos come with a good helping of consomé (photo). It also comes with limes, cucumber, and radish. Chips and Salsa are provided with dine in. It's best to eat them immediately, as the tortilla will not hold well if you take it to go.

The price is reasonable for all that you get. The customer service has also been great so far and the Chef is very personable. I usually don't write reviews (my 2nd time), but I had to spread the word and let everyone know...

We try to look for the local one-off places to eat when traveling, staying away from the chains you can find everywhere you go. So glad we tried High Desert Tacos, and More!

Fernando is quick to point out that making great food, as they clearly do, is a team effort. We ordered chicken quesadilla, which had a hint of the grill flavor and was tender and cooked perfectly. We also had a taco each. One with asada and one with chicken that were delicious. Salsa and chips came along, but we also added guacamole. Plus, a couple of fountain drinks came to about $25. Absolutely worth every penny.

And Fernando and all were super friendly, fast, and helpful.

Thanks for a delicious meal and conversation. See you next time...
