4.5 stars but rounded up for service. They have a lunch special everyday. Quality is consistent and great and their salsa bar is legit. Owners are super nice, bilingual and very hard working. Workers are great too. They have a few indoor seats and a covered patio outside. Parking is ample but they r busy so u may have to get ur steps in during lunch rush. I love their quesadillas and they have cherry coke. Not a lot of restaurants have cherry coke but orange bang, pina colada and horchata baby. I stop by here whenever I’m in the area, usually after stopping by Roger dunn. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Recommended dishes Salsa Bar

I love the tacos. They're basic, but tasty and everything comes with a small side of tortilla chips. Prices are a bit higher than what you'd expect. The condiments bar is always well stocked.

My family, boyfriend and I love getting food from here, we usually take it to go but they give you all the things and utensils you might need whether you stay to eat there or are eating on the go. It is a small area for the business but they make it work and we have always enjoyed the food ever since we moved to Tustin. I wanted to add that I usually don’t add salsa to my food that much but the salsa they have here I always get and add to everything from how good it is.

Two taquito plate with rice and black beans. It was all pretty good, the taquitos were lightly fried, the rice was fluffy, and the beans were done right and had good flavor. The guacamole fresh and tasted great as well. The only complaint was minor well doneness of meat on the end of one taquito but not a big deal, still good.

So, in looking for a new "hard shell" taco spot, this came up on my search. As I was looking over the entry, the menu, and directions, I saw the first comment which said, "possibly the best tacos in the OC," so I figured I'd give it a shot. The establishment is nothing to brag about. It's antiquated and a little run down, but it's clean and there's plenty of seating if you not doing take-out. The staff, what can I say, they were so friendly and helpful and treated us like we've been patrons for years. This treatment alone would have been enough for a second visit. The food: I wanted have shell tacos and so I got 1 Asada, 1 shredded chicken, 1 carnitas and 1 Al Pastor. Since I luv enchiladas I also ordered a single shredded beef with green sauce. I must say that the review that led me here was spot on. The tacos were delicious, end of story. The chicken was a little dry, but some salsa and hot sauce corrected this issue. I will be returning next Tuesday without a doubt. For me, an enchilada is one of those menu items that is a standard for a Mexican restaurant. Either its proper or it fails in some fashion and this is also reflected in other dishes. In this instance, the enchiladas was perfect. The corn tortilla remained firm, the sauce was the perfect consistency and flavor, and the cheese topping and meat filling were exactly right. The other two things that stood out to both me and my daughter was that the price is proper and the speed which everything was prepared. I just completed getting salsa and hot sauce into containers when our order was ready. If you have not checked out the Original Taco Factor then you should certain put it on you list of places to try.

I've been going to this place for years and it's very much a go-to spot when I want something to eat without all the hassle. The parking lot is quite small, which becomes am issue when theres a rush of folks, but there is plenty of outdoor seating and food comes out quickly.

This place is frickin’ sublime. The veggie tacos and burritos have all the classic fillings you want and nothing you don’t, and they’re HUGE for the price. Great rice and beans - the staple of vegetarian Mexican food. I can’t speak for the meat but my boyfriend was very pleased with his meaty tacos, which were also massive. We both ended up making two tacos out of one, since they come double-wrapped (the way god intended) and are so over-stuffed with fillings you either have to split them up or knife and fork it. The salsa bar makes this an extra great deal - love the fact that you can dress your tacos yourself and have plenty of topping options. Three different kinds of onions! Are you kidding me?! Can’t overemphasize how reasonable - dare I say, cheap - the prices are here for what you get. The employees are so sweet and friendly. Also love the fact they have foam cups for drinks - my apologies to the environment, but every soda nut knows foam cups are the gold standard for keeping your sodie fresh, cold, and not watered down. Not to mention the free refills on the Horchata/Orange Whip machine. In high school we used to come here and suck down gallons of horchata while hanging out on the patio - great to see that over 20 years later this place hasn’t changed. A true Orange County Mexican food gem. Protect this place at all costs. Service Dine in Price per person $1–10 Recommended dishes Salsa Bar

Delicious authentic Mexican food. Not a huge menu but all items are great. The service is fast and friendly and the food is really good. I got the carnitas burrito and loved it. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $1–10
