I’ve been a repeat customer as this restaurant is extremely convenient for me. However I’ve noticed the prices do not match the portions. Very over priced. I order the same Carne asada chips every time, add beans, add extra cheese (charged a dollar extra each item) which is fine. I ask for the guac and pico on the side that it already comes with, and they wanted to charge an additional dollar. On top of that, today I noticed the prices are never the same for the same nachos and add ons. 12.99 turns to 15.48, 16.14, 17.17 it’s not consistent. Today I was disappointed to pay for the extra cheese and received less cheese than ever before. I’m from California so I know how the carne asada nachos and pollo asada burritos are supposed to be made. They come with everything I get charged extra for in Texas. Taco shops in Cali remain top tier, especially in San Diego, where I could never finish a nacho in one sitting. This place is robbing you.

The wait is over! Valerie’s is open and will soon be exploding! Walking in, Steve the owner was very friendly and was happy explain and answer questions. Great experience! From left to right…. Carnitas - crispy and savory pork, probably one of the best I have ever had Pastor - savory with good seasoning and flavor, no pineapple chunks so 👍🏼 Cali Style - carne asada, fries, sauced with fresh shredded cheese Carne asada - great cut of meat and paired with fresh guacamole They also have agua fresca…. If you’re unfamiliar with these drinks, they are made from all fresh juices and ingredients. Options are hibiscus, watermelon, horchata, and cucumber mint. All very fresh and delicious. Hibiscus is paired best with Tito’s. Red pepper sauce….. Tomatillo sauce….. Creamy Serrano sauce (the best) Let Steve know you saw Kris’ review and had to try

Ok… this hurts to post this! I absolutely love Valerie’s food, but the portion size has diminished considerably. I thought that it was initially a one off deal, but after 3 months, it’s more of a quality control issue. I usually go about 3 times a week and they’ve steadily gotten smaller with less meat. The burritos used to be the size of my forearm, now they are the size of my hand. I know they owner wouldnt be happy with the quality, so maybe he needs to pay this location a visit. I was a 5 star 3 months ago, but now I may need to go places that actually fill me up. UPDATE: Owner appears to have addressed the issue! Food servings have been better but not as great as it was today when the owner was there. Adjusting my rating to what it deserves to be! Great job!

I have tried this place three times, each time has been progressively worst. The first time I ordered Carnitas Tacos, very small not much flavor. The second time that I went to this Taco Shop, I ordered beef Taquetoes, wasn’t good at all. This time I went, I forgot just how bad the Beef Taquitos really were, but I did Remember that that Beef was cheep, so this time I ordered the Chicken, which also was a big mistake. After eating one of the five, I had to send it back, I almost broke a tooth. The guy fried the hell out of the Taquitos. After thinking about these three visits, I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT, these people have no idea of what they are doing. This food is not being made properly, it’s being brought in frozen and canned, they are no peeping the food. They dont really give you any food, and the food that they give you is cheep, and they give you very little of it. A 1/2 oz of beans, an 1/2. oz of Rice, two of the cheapest items to produce on a menue? The Taquitos were razor thin, no meat and hard as hell! You guys were serving this stuff up in California? I don’t really think that you are going to make it here in Texas. This food is horrible. I Wii never be coming back to this place, and I would advise everyone to steer clear of this place, because you will be sadly disappointed in the quality and taste of this food. Just look at some of the reviews and pictures of the Taquitos, those are not the Taquitos that were served to me, the one that were served to me we Boxed Frozen Cheep, no Home made like the ones in the photos, so the are doing a bait a switch, very dishonest. If you don’t have what’s on the menue, tell people, don’t slip them garbage, thinking that they won’t be able to tell the difference, this just costs you valuable customers, not good...

Let me start by saying that I'm a firm believer in two things: a hearty breakfast and the sanctity of my order. This morning, however, one of those beliefs was thoroughly tested at Valerie's Toco Shop that usually never disappoints. Now, I'm not one to shy away from giving credit where it's due. This joint knows how to whip up a breakfast that could make even Leslie Knope nod in approval. Their chorizo, egg, ham, and potato concoction is a masterpiece—a breakfast symphony, if you will.

But today, ladies and gentlemen, the breakfast gods must have been on vacation, leaving my order in the hands of someone who clearly missed the memo. Instead of the glorious chorizo fiesta I had been dreaming of, I found myself face-to-face with a plate of carne asada. Don't get me wrong; carne asada is not terrible. It's like a used Ford Dart—decent, but definitely not the souped-up Mustang I was expecting.

Now, I'm not one to raise a ruckus, but when you're anticipating a breakfast masterpiece and end up with the wrong flavor profile, it's a bit like expecting a carnivore's delight and getting a herbivore's surprise. A disappointment, to say the least. In the grand scheme of life, a breakfast mix-up might not be the end of the world, but in the delicate dance of morning rituals, it's a stumble that's hard to overlook. Here's to hoping the breakfast gods return soon, and my next visit brings back the glorious harmony of chorizo, egg, ham, and potato.

READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO GET SICK. I normally avoid leaving negative reviews, but I am leaving this one to help save others from several days of stomach pain and illness. I have had a couple of burritos from this place in the past which were mediocre at best, but a quick breakfast option on the way to the office. Every time I got food from them, I noticed how oily the food was, but a bit less noticeable when mixed in with eggs and potatoes in a burrito. I got cheese enchiladas from them for lunch 3 days ago which was a mistake! The enchiladas were swimming in oil. I’m not talking about regular amount of oil that exudes from melted cheese, or from the sauce. I mean unbelievable amount of oil that was covering the enchiladas almost all the way to the top. I was starving so I had a couple of bites and I’ve been seriously ill since then. Do NOT eat there. There is absolutely NO reason to use that much oil in preparing the food, regardless of the kind of food you’re cooking at your restaurant. I hope you can improve your food quality, so you can stay...
