Taqueria Los Gallos

We had carni asada tacos for lunch, one soft one crisp! So delicious. Want to go back for dinner.

Los Gallos is family for us locals. Great food, always consistent in their execution of quality Mexican food, From on point chorizo breakfast burritos, killer shrimp tacos and my go to Carne en se Hugo. Also hard to beat is their salsa selection. Keep doing what your doing guys, we appreciate you

Can't go wrong here. Great ownership, authentic food, and 1:1 service. Thank you for a great meal and service.

We had never been here before and had the shrimp plate and a deluxe barbecued pork quesadilla. My husband and I shared them and they were incredibly tasty. The shrimp were plentiful and the quesadilla was huge packed with an interesting aray of tasty ingredients. The variety of salsas were a great addition. The server was very friendly an accommodating. We are anxious to return. Diane Dearinger

Great taqueria. The owners are great guys.

We go here every week to get their delicious super carnitas or shrimps burritos, they are the best we found in whole silicon valley. They have decent prices, the place is clean and food is fast ready to go or you can watch TV while you are eating...

Amazing food! Great and friendly staff! Faster than fast food with quality ingredients and very fair prices! I have been here often and will continue to return ^_^

Some really yummy Mexican food. I got two regular tacos, al pastor and carnitas, and they were both delicious. Came out to about $6 and some change. You can get bottled Mexican beers for $4. They also have lots of vegetarian options if you're so inclined. I'd say it's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

I love the food at Los Gallos. Jorge & Antonio have the best burritos around. I love the grilled chicken and my prefers the shrimp burrito. Call in your order for faster service at lunch and dinner time.

Stopped here after a long mountain bike ride, absolutely delicious burrito. The al pastor was flavored perfectly, they used Pico de Gallo salsa throughout, moist and well composed. Plus, the owner is a really nice guy, I dropped my jarritos in the parking lot and came in to buy a replacement, but he wouldn't accept my money and gave me a replacement for free.

Shrimp fajitas were bloody amazing. Hit this place up if you're starving and only have a few dollars in your pocket. Constant stream of people in and out for pick up orders. Fast and friendly peeps here will take care of ya.

Amazing food! Chips and fresh salsa were great too. Love coming here whenever I'm in the area. Busy but authentic

Stopped here on our way from Santa Cruz to SFO for lunch. Got some nachos, quesadilla and bean burrito - all were amazing and reasonably priced! Lots of tables inside and outside to eat with very friendly staff 😊

I’ve been going here half my life since these guys opened, lots of fun memories, and never any disappointments. These guys have earned their place as a valuable member of the community, please continue to support them!

This is my favorite place to get food in Scotts Valley - you don’t want to miss it! Their super burrito is literally perfection and their quesobirria is magnificent! They’ve got an awesome chef in the kitchen. There’s also super tasty chips for while you’re waiting.

Really really good Mexican place. Definitely did not expect the portions to be as big as they were; I was surprised and satisfied with the Super Quesadilla. The breakfast burritos were good as well. Service is quick, and there’s lots of indoor and outdoor dining. A good place to dine in or take out. Also got some chips on the way out!

Grungy little Taqueria in a strip mall. Great tacos on my visit, Carnitas, Al Pastor and fish. they were all good but my favorite was the Al Pastor. If you order a fish taco you better bring your appetite because they pile it high! The salsa situation was a little confusing and because of that I wasted some. The salsa is in the drinks fridge, the choices on the left are mild and progress to the right, the spiciest (not too spicy) is on the far right and the best in my opinion, kind of a smoky habanero. I would love to try their Carne soup but it's too hot today.

Discovered this place on a trip. The counter guy was friendly. Had chicken fajitas and the chicken was really juicy. The quantity was enough and the chips were free! Will go there again!

Best Mexican food I've had in a while! We got tacos, micheladas, and a super burrito. Will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area and craving Mexican food with authentic flavor.

Food was delicious! Everything was tasty. Fish taco was chunky! They have outside seating area. Available restroom too.

It's really great food. My first time here and came all the way from Hayward and just wanted to give it a shot and it's fantastic. I'm making this spot for my Fridays since I come to see a couple of my shops here in Santa Cruz. I'm going to tell all my co works and family to eat here. I highly recommend it. Fresh drinks and fresh food.Great Service

Great place for spanish food in Scott’s Valley. This restaurant is right off Scott’s Valley Drive in a small shopping center. It is easy to find. There is plenty of parking. There are a few tables and seats outside and a few inside. The staff was very friendly and ordering was easy and quick. The food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable for the food portions that you receive. This is a great place to go for tacos and burritos in the area.

Çhill little spot here! Shrimp tacos bring the flava!!! Gotta grab a Jarrito with them! Love the vibes here!

Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had! Wonderful wonderful wonderful. Friendly service as well.

Best burritos ever. Huge portions. Cash only. Live Mariachi band. Street parking only. Price is also relatively cheap.

One of the best chorizo burritos I’ve ever had. Not filling either. Great taste. Just perfect.

Fast, friendly, inexpensive and delicious as all hell! I go out of my way to eat here

Happy to be your guys 500th review. Ive been coming since I was a lil mijo. Best Mexican restaurant in the world!

A warm local mexican restaurant that serves the BEST mexican food!!! Such beautiful and friendly people work there and I can’t recommend them enough 🥹🩵

I've been going to the place for 22 years. Fantastic food, always consistent. Friendly staff. Good menu. What more could you possibly want? Two locations one by Taco Bell and one by Scotts valley market North end of town

Everything about it was perfect! The man at the register was incredibly friendly and helpful and had a great vibe. I went with 3 others and all of our food was amazing, especially the carnitas tacos and the pollo asado tacos. The entire restaurant was super well kept especially the bathroom. I would 100% rate higher if I could.

Good Mexican joint for some quick taco or burrito runs. Also love how they give you free chips alongside your order. However, the prices are a bit too high compared to Santa Cruz Mexican restaurants. It's expected from a location in a town like Scotts Valley.

I was just in the area and this was the top rated fast food place. I got a super burrito which was good for the most part but there were super salty bites, not sure maybe the beef was over seasoned. I would give them a 3.5 but rounded up to 4.

Solid carne asada and shrimp Diabla. This is our family’s regular place when we aren’t in Santa Cruz. Tried to go there last Saturday night at 9pm but was closed!

Excellent food. Probably the best burritos and tacos in the Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley area. However, the prices are high and the customer service is really really bad. The cashier acted like he absolutely hated me when I walked in the door. I felt like I had to get on my knees and beg for some sauce because he seemed so unaccommodating. Additionally, he was inappropriately loud while me and my friends were eating our food in the restaurant.

Not tasty at all. Carne asada tacos were very plain. No flavor. The red salsa already on the tacos was plain and mild. No one asked if we needed anything else. We had to ask for lime. No extra sauce on the table or offered for their plain tacos. Would not go back.

Had a very bad experience at this restaurant. First the person behind the counter was distant and non engaging. When ordering we were asked to go or dine in. I specifically said dine in. Well it was given to us in to go boxes. Being the first time to this establishment I thought well maybe that’s the way they do it here? After sitting down to eat I opened the box to a mess, the enchilada sauce was all over the taco so I couldn’t even pick the taco up without getting this terrible looking red sauce all over, the beef in the enchilada was terrible tasted like it was saturated in some old grease. I then noticed the person bring the food to the table next to ours on the dinner plates!!! So I asked why did we get boxes, and he said I ordered to go. I then said no I ordered to dine in... and he again said one of you said to go. My wife didn’t say anything to him. So I didn’t argue the point!!! Enter at your own risk on this place. Probably the worst Mexican food I’ve had in as long as I can remember.

I was double charged and when asked for a refund, I was told I needed to show proof. I showed my bank statement and then was refused a refund due to both charges were still pending and needed to wait until both charges cleared to receive refund. After both charges cleared my account and showing proof they still continued to deny my refund and asked me to come into the restaurant at a later date. Completely unprofessional and worst customer service experience. $12 dollars is not worth my time but I suppose to a struggling business it's a lot. Please double check your receipts if you decide to eat here.

No one answered the phone. Staff inside did not open the business even at 8:50am, said they needed an extra 30 mins to open? Perhaps hours of operation need to be updated on google if they are not opened at 8:30am

Got a shrimp cocktail with no flavor. The avocado was not ripe. For the price it was not worth it.
