Taqueros Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Mission Viejo

Sorry to say This place went from a five-star to in my opinion a three-star. Me and my family loved eating here until the recent menu change. Their carne asada tacos were the best. My kids didn't even have to fiddle with the meat because it was very well prepared with not a lot of chewy pieces or stringy fat pieces. They're salsa bar was great, we loved the spicy carrots and salsa choices. It just ruins it when you have to be picking through your food to take pieces out and then you end up with a lot smaller meal. I understand that they're trying to make it more like where they come from in Mexico, but before the menu change, my whole family loved eating there and now we have to look for a new taco spot. My recommendation for the owners is to make sure the cook is not leaving really big fat stringy pieces in because it makes it hard for the younger generation. The double tortilla was so great because it didn't fall apart as easily as it does now with one tortilla. Super sad about taking away the spicy carrots and jalapenos. Thank you for the delicious food before the change came...

I was at my favorite Sushi place "Koko" waiting for my to go order and I decided to walk a few doors down to Taqueros Mexican Restaurant and I have to say I like what I saw. The senorita that I talked to was very nice and helpful with my questions as I read the menu board. They have a good selection of dishes that I am definitely going back to try. The food coming from the kitchen looked muie delicioso. The young gentleman sitting at the table nearest me was willing to talk about the restaurant and the food, he shared the he has gone here for a while and the food is spot on authentic Mexican cuisine. Oh, did I mention that he was Latino! He shared with me that his favorite dish was the Tacos Birria which looked really good. I think this place is definitely a must to check...

I want to love this place. The food is tasty but we've been there twice and both times they got our order wrong. I can't say anything about my first order since it was completely not what I ordered and I didn't eat much of it. The second time I tried the beef/potato taquitos. They were yummy! My aunt ordered separately from me (they wouldn't have known we were together) She ordered chicken and beef taquitos but they gave her the same as me. She was told the potato taquitos had cheese mixed in the potato inside the taquitos and since she's dairy free, she didn't order those. She got them anyway. They have good chips and guacamole, so that's a plus. The lesson we've learned is to check our food completely before we drive home. It's far away so once we get home, we aren't...
