I was very disappointed with both times I have eaten here! The Atascadero location has always been pretty good, but even their food isn't much better.. the last time I was there, anyway. I tried the Chile Verde plate the first time I was here at the Paso location.. it just didn't taste good.. chips and salsa tasted store bought, and the combo plate I tried, the second visit, was even worse. I get so hopeful when I see a new Mexican restaurant in the North County.. hoping we'll finally have a place that takes pride in the quality of food they sell. Upon entering, it has a walk-up order counter, as well.. which gives it a fast food feel.. The good news is that it was clean and in much better shape than the last Mexican restaurant that was there before them. Staff was friendly, but during my 2 visits, the person who took my order, had limited English speaking abilities.. making any special requests a bit tricky. I'm still in search of a solid, delicious Mexican restaurant that has great rice and beans, along with consistently good...
Read moreI was passing by on my way to Los Angeles and stopped in this town to have a bite to eat. An unusually clean taqueria restaurant, but for some reason there are few ratings! I am writing a review with pleasure - I have nothing to complain about! I liked the tacos too - I love "street" tacos, but I never risk it on the street. The size may be standard, maybe a little smaller - very tasty! I liked the chips so much that I took some to go! I would have taken everything, but you have to have a conscience))) Super! The sauces are excellent, very tasty, but the gacamole is a bit thin. They served the tacos with them and I took as much as I wanted along with the chips. The guy at the checkout is a great guy, he knows how to treat customers and elders with respect! Give him a bonus, I had no money left for a tip. In general, these guys...
Read moreAbsolutely a great spot if you are needing a lunch or night of easy Mexican food. They have your classics, but this is what we ordered:
Assorted tacos (al pastor and carne asada): 4.5/5 -Delicious, off the grill taste, you can taste the quality of the meat rather than other places where meat just sits until served.
Quesadilla w/ carnitas: 5/5 -This was rock solid and the family loved it
Super Burrito w/ carne: 4.5/5 -Can't go wrong, very good. Again all ingredients seemed fresh especially the carne. Pretty close to the quality at some San Diego mex or mission style burrito top spots up north, very very tasty they did!
Service was super friendly. Highly recommend this spot! Heard they have another location in Atascadero too that's just...
