How do you tell a person that their taste buds are wrong? I'm still trying to figure it out. My friend and I have recently been on a quest to try every taqueria in Morgan Hill. One day I tried Las Isabelas solo and my taste buds were blown away. I notified my friend about my culinary experience and told him that Las Isabelas is my new favorite taqueria. He was skeptical and was convinced it was impossible for any taqueria to outperform Super Taqueria. A few days later we went to Las Isabelas and I couldn't wait for him to see them do the impossible. When he was eating the burrito he was moaning in joy the whole time. After he was finished I was ready for him to confess his new allegiance to Las Isabelas, but the next thing he said made me sick. He said that it was really really good, but still not better than Super Taqueria. I honestly couldn't even look at him. How could he be so stubborn? Some people can't see a good thing even when it smacks them right in the face. My issue wasn't that he was just flat out wrong. My issue was that he didn't go in with an open mind. He walked into Las Isabelas already thinking that nothing could be better than Super Taqueria. How can one be open to change if you're blindly following one taqueria. Maybe all he needs is time getting used to Las Isabelas and eventually it will be his new favorite taqueria. It's definitely my...
Read moreNot sure what has taken me so long to try this place. To be honest, I thought it was a grab and go taqueria. I even have a friend that lives in Santa Clara that swears by it, yet I still didn’t try it or ask my friend any questions…just kept assuming it was something it wasn’t.
Anywho, I just tried it for the first time. It was everything I didn’t think it was going to be. Ha!
It’s a sit down restaurant. I went with three other people and all of us would go back again. I had the vegetarian burrito, no sour cream and added extra cheese. The burrito was large (not huge), but my first thought was “there is no way I’ll finish this whole thing in one sitting”. I took the foil off, cut it in half and took a bite. My first thought was “oh wow…this is delicious”. I devoured the first half and to my surprise…I ate the second half as well. It was so freaking good!!! I want to go back and get it again! The enchiladas (green sauce) also looked tasty as well.
The service was awesome! The place was clean! And the prices were very fair!
I’ll be back and this could very well be a restaurant that ends up in my “local rotation”.

Read moreEverything was perfect from the fresh guacamole and salsa to the delicious sopes, with it's crunchy exterior and perfectly-textured interior softness. The al pastor was cooked just the way I love it... a delicious, slight char to some of the meat pieces was a perfect balance to the thick tortilla, lettuce sour cream and guacamole. The beans were flavorful awesomeness as was the rice. My partner had fish tacos that were also delicious as well.
The service was quick and very friendly. We arrived after 1:00 p.m. and it was not busy. I'm surprised there is no line for this place and I feel that it might be a hidden Jewel that has been open for 6 years now. You might miss it if you use Apple maps, but Android got us back on track and to the...
