Valerie's Taco Stand

Bought a California Burrito. I'm pretty picky about California Burritos. Of all the Mexican restaurants I've bought a Cali Burrito, this is only the 2nd restaurant I've found that I like. The staff was very friendly. I ordered to go, I wasn't fully paying attention when they were trying to tell me it was ready and they were being professional getting my attention.

First time coming here. We stopped in after a movie...pretty late, around 9pm on a Saturday night (and Mexican Independence Day no less). It was not busy. Parking was easy, but it took a couple of minutes to get serviced as the person on-duty was busy filling up the salsa bar.

We ordered the 5 rolled tacos, Cali and Bean & Cheese Burrito, Diablo and an El Hefe taco. Service was pretty quick, and we got to check out their salsa bar - which, I must say, was quite impressive. I noticed a lot of other quick Mexican food places don't have a salsa bar, or lost it during covid, so it was nice to see so many options here. This is a huge plus in my book.

Everything was excellent. The fries in the Cali burrito were actually crispy, not soggy. The rolled tacos came with carne asada on top! What!? This is so unusual but really awesome, and for only $8.

My tacos were great, I could hardly finish them. I was bummed they were out of the Chicharron Tacos but next time that's first on my list.

For a taco stand, I’m giving 5 stars. It’s not a restaurant so don’t have those aspirations going in. I ordered to go for my family. It was recommended.

The food was good. The prices are cheap and the food portions are big! 1 taco is enough! I could eat two but my stomach would be uncomfortable. I personally ordered the Cali Tacos for myself. The fries could have been seasoned, but other than that, I really enjoyed my taco. What I ordered for my family is Rolled Tacos shredded chicken with carne Asada on top. Fried Mahi Tacos, one with the cabbage on top and one order without it. We all enjoyed our meals. We look forward to coming back to try the breakfast items that everyone keeps raving about in the reviews!

I would like to start off with saying I’ve lived in SoCal my whole life and as a first generation Latino It’s hard to for me to be impressed by mexican food since I get all the best mexican food cooked by mom or tias. This is actually a very authentic mexican food place. I was thrown off by the menu as it was all labeled in English but wow the food here is amazing and served just like it would in Mexico. The prices are amazing I got an order of rolled tacos and thought they were gonna be small but they were pretty big and the price for the order had 5 tacos!!! Also the aguas frescas we’re the best along with their salsa bar.

Great food, great service, and EXCELLENT salsas. If you are a lover of spicy salsa this place is IT. Their red salsa was super flavorful and spicy we loved it. We ordered 3 tacos and 1 burrito (i added rice) and they were very tasty😋 10/10 would come back again
