Opinions de Amor y Tacos Cerritos
Went with a group of 18-20 ladies. Service was stellar. Food tasty, good price point. Loved the decor & vibe.
Had beef short rib taquitos, very delicious. Highly recommend making reservation especially on weekend.
Overall ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) Context Visited during LA Dine Week. Environment ⭐⭐⭐⭐½☆ Open kitchen setup where you can watch them make tortillas fresh on the spot, which was really fun and added to the experience. Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐½☆ • Guacamole ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Simple and well done—straightforward and satisfying. • Mexico Clam Chowder ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Flavorful but a bit salty for my taste. • Short Rib Taco ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ The corn tortilla was crispy and excellent. The short rib itself was tasty, though slightly salty for me. • Churros ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good and a great way to finish the meal.
I started my visit by ordering the calamari and it was great. Everything on that dish was well balanced and the calamari was perfectly cooked. I’m glad that the server screwed up my order of tortilla soup and gave me the entree sized bowl. It was, hands down, the best I ever had. The broth is incredibly thick and savory, the meat, tender, and it’s not stupid spicy or bland - just perfect. I’m sorry abuela, but señor Thomas takes this soup to a whole other level. I can already feel the chancla beating me but that’ll be a survival story for another time. Finally, the chipotle agave pork belly. Lots of flavor to sort out here. The sweet and savory of the sauce and pork balances out well. Personally, I think the dish had too many potatoes and could have used less, but that’s my opinion. I highly recommend getting reservations because this place can get busy- fast. Do I recommend visiting? Absolutely! Will I go here again? Yes - till the day I die.
I’ve gone here a few times for lunches with coworkers since I work in Santa Fe Springs. I would describe the food as upscale, Mexican and they have a good variety of things from calamari, pork belly, fish, and variety of tacos. Haven’t been to their happy hour yet, but several of my coworkers told me that it’s a great deal and they try to go often.
This place is great all around, from the food to their customer service. They go above and beyond to make sure their customers have what they asked for. Their employee Jorge Castillo went as far as going to the store across the street to get syrup for us when they ran out. When I say their customer service is top notch this is exactly what I mean. Going way beyond the expectations one has for customer service. Great job to everyone who works. You can see the love and passion for what they do. Keep at it.
I've dined here many times for lunch and happy hour. The food and atmosphere have always been great, and you cannot go wrong with any menu item. This place is known for its freshly made tortillas, refreshing cocktails, delicious tacos, hearty burritos, and enchiladas. On a recent lunch visit, we were celebrating a family birthday, and our large party was accommodated without a problem. We made reservations the day of, and they had our tables prepared promptly when we checked in. Our primary server, Stefani T., was excellent, patiently taking everyone's order and providing attentive service throughout our meal. The rest of the staff was great at helping out as well. My go-to menu items are the tacos and enchiladas. On my recent visit, we shared some starters like Mole Tots and Papas Brava, both of which were very good. The quacamole and salsa with chips are always tasty too. The Agua Frescas of the day were sandia (watermelon) and horchata. I ordered the sandia, and it was refreshing. For my entrée, I went with the Taco de mi Abuela, and it was the perfect amount for me. The beef and chorizo mix was flavorful, the light, crispy shell was easy to bite into, and the rest of the ingredients kept the dish fresh and light. I would order this again. It was a little messy to eat, though. The rice and beans are ok, I prefer refried bean style, and the beans here are whole. Overall, it was another pleasant and satisfying visit to Amor y Tacos. Can't wait to return. Also, there's plenty of parking, reservations, and a waitlist system are available.
Hatch chile spaghetti is a MUST try... you will be hooked (add steak, salmon, shrimp...it's all great)! My friend said the salmon tacos were the best she'd ever had. The hatch chile burger was also a hit! And, all the margaritas are so good!!! 100% RECOMMEND!
This is a hidden gem. A friend recommended and I brought my family. Very reasonable prices and delicious food. Home made tortillas what a treat to see them being made. The Manager made sure we were happy. Bar area is perfect to watch a game.
We were greeted at the door and asked if we had any allergies in a way that made my party feel genuinely cared for and individually seen. What followed was always at that same level of care. Every bite, every act of service was born to make one little corner of the world brighter. The food was delicious, exceeding expectations with each bite. Salty, crunchy savory, sweet again, again, and again. Thank you for making our night special 🙏❤️ ($30 to $50 with alcohol)
I love love love this Mexican restaurant. I make it a point to go here every time I am In the Cerritos area. Food, manager, service and vibe are all phenomenal. When you walk in there is an abuela making handmade tortillas, do I need to say more?! Always make sure to order their mole tots there, then I’m a huge fan of their surf and turf. Lots of shrimp and carne asada steak for the price and it’s delicious. Literally one of my favorite meals in OC/LA
The food was great, service friendly and attentive and an easy going, family friendly atmosphere... we where there for happy hour so don't know what it's like for the dinner crowd. The happy hour menu was very good and inexpensive although the margaritas were a little too sweet for my taste. We took back an order of nachos and a burrito for my kids... it was delicious and huge.
Great food and portion sizes! Quick service and consistent taste. The tater tots recipe is unique to Amor Y and I would not miss eating it every time I visit. The vegetarian taco selection is decent and flavorful. If you cannot tolerate too much spice, I would inform the waiter beforehand.

This place has a wonderful selection of familiar flavors and delightful interpretations of Mexican-american cuisine. It's one of the places I like to bring out of town visitors
Food was good. Clean restaurant and friendly service. Ordered a taco salad with pork carnita and it was great. We will come back when in town.

Food Its not bad, I noticed my first taco was good, but after it starting getting cold it wasn't as tasted. I would recommend that they do fresh tortillas if they don't already, as that will enhance the food quality. Maybe wrap the tacos in foil to keep them warm longer. Service Their service is always great. Many beautiful and kind services, always great service. The 1st time I went here a couple years ago, they treated me like family. I felt like I was hanging out with my aunts/cousins. Atmosphere Very nice atmosphere, and the music is great. Enjoyable place to go and have some tacos. I haven't had their margaritas yet, but they look delicious.
It’s now 10pm and I am still full from eating their Dine LA deal at 2 (and subsequently the leftovers at 6:30). The deal is a LOT of food at a pretty good bang for your buck of $35, excluding tax and tip. Service was extremely efficient and attentive; our waitress got us started immediately with the courses where we don’t need to make decisions, then came back to us for our later courses while we enjoyed the starters. The chip texture is phenomenal, with a perfect crunch while still having a little give to it. The guac is a little more jalapeño forward, so people who are sensitive to spice should be a little more careful. Street corn was a little saucy but perfectly balanced between sour and sweet. I have no idea what I expected out of the clam chowder but I honestly shouldn’t have been surprised. This was a good palate cleanser after the street corn but honestly probably the least memorable dish out of all of them. The burrito is absolutely humongous and it’s not my favorite burrito, but it was well-balanced among all of the ingredients without feeling too strongly of any particular one. The best part was that the ingredients were well-distributed throughout so I never felt like I had a bite of pure beans. The birria was a little more dry than my preference, though. The churros could’ve done with less sugar on the outside but the crunch contrasted well to the horchata ice cream, which was truly the drink in ice cream form.
I feel like the food was very good and creative. I always judge a Mexican restaurant first by its tacos. This place had a taco tasting course, so I tried all the standards and it was very good. I think the value was a little less than I had hoped for the tacos specifically. Will have to try again, but definitely a good sit down Mexican spot (which in my opinion are very hard to find)
First off - the food was delicious and came out pretty quickly - I had three tacos a la carte (carnitas, short rib, and al pastor) all of them were yummy but the carnitas was AMAZING. I especially liked the pickled onion/radish that came on two of my tacos. I’ll also say that they had of unique menu items that I would be interesting in trying if I come back. As far as service goes we had to wait for a while for a server and eventually a different waitress came to take our order - I’m hoping this was just a one off weird incident and hopefully not how things normally go (but hard to say since this my first time coming) - after that mishap we got our order and the first waitress we were supposed to have came - the rest of the service was fine after that. The rest of the atmosphere is fine, nothing super impressive but not dingy and gross either - all in all would come back for the food not the aesthetic
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ i tried this spot for the first time today. I ordered the potato taquitos, which weren’t my favorite, but my boyfriend got the chicken nachos and those were delicious—I definitely wished I had ordered them instead! He usually prefers diced chicken while I like shredded, so I really enjoyed the way they prepared it. They also surprised us with complimentary chilaquiles for our first visit, which was such a nice touch. Service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. I’d come back to try more items off the menu.
We've been coming to this joint for years. The food is consistently good, great service and Lucha Libre decor inside the restaurant. We always enjoyed the freshly made tortilla chips with salsa and guac, but this time the chips were a bit stale. We ordered the taco trio, salad and birria. The portion of the salad is quite generous, it's tasty so we cleaned it up anyways. The 3 of us totally enjoyed our food. I had the birria for the first time and it definitely hit the spot. To top it off we had the pan dulce bread pudding and it's amazing!

This restaurant was not what I was expecting out of a Bib Gourmand. The food was fine but not great, with the exception of the mixed veggie and brussels sprout tacos which were fabulous. The cocktails, while pretty and quite large, were honestly pretty weak. The service was excellent, no complaints there. Overall decent (especially for the price) but not amazing.
It was hard to swallow $89. For 4 burritos. They told us how great they were. Well, they were not that tasty and they really were not that big. So the atmosphere inside looked ok and the people were friendly. I just can not say we got a good value and taste. Can’t really say a return trip for one more try is ok.
I really like how great this restaurant looks. I like the art and the Mexican dishes available. Unfortunately this last visit the food and service was very disappointing. They tacos were very bad. The asada meat was very oily and dry. I was expecting the hand tortillas to taste good, but they didn't make the tacos taste better. Only the fresh ingredients was good. Our waitress wasn't attentive, they restaurant seem to be short staff. I thought ordering the tacos was a good choice but not at Amor y Tacos. I've had better street tacos. There was Very little amor!
There is an abundance of free parking since this place is in an open shopping plaza. Host seemed to have an off day and was not friendly. The rest of the staff was friendly. Service took a long time from the waitress asking us what we wanted to drink, taking our order and coming through to check and see if we needed anything else or a drink refill. We tried a few things: Guacamole, Mole Tots, Tortilla soup, Ceasar Salad, and the Hatch Chile Salmon. First and foremost everything was highly salty except the Guacamole. Also, everything had some sort of spicy hotness to it. The Mole sauce on the tator dish was mediocre and tasted like a thick version of Doña Maria's. The tortilla soup was extremely thick almost like a puree and not a true soup. The soup flavor was a major missss. One good thing about the soup is that they did put a generous amount of avocado and chicken. The Guacamole was fresh and good they do include pieces of Serrano chile in it for spicy level but you can request no chile. The guacamole did need lemon or lime juice but that was not a deal breaker. I did enjoy the amount of cilantro. The hatch chile salmon was a fail.... well not the salmon itself, the salmon by itself was good well seasoned, well cooked and not too fishy. But the hatch chile sauce was extremely salty, way too rich and overpowering. The rice was not good at all it was wet and clumpy. The best thing that we ate was the Ceasar salad... well seasoned, fresh romaine lettuce that was very green. The dressing was good and on point. The serving size is enough for two people. The agua de Sandia tasted home made but made for those that like very sweet drinks. The atmosphere was highly cultural and they had a lively bar scene.
