Spanish speaking and great tacos, they were very fast
El jalisence is amazing! Their sopes are a must-try. the flavors are incredible. You can tell they use good quality ingredients and put love into every bite. Highly recommend this place for a casual lunch/dinner.
The people that work here are absolutely amazing! The steet tacos are my favorite with eveything! Music, soccer, good food, and great people, cant ask for more!
Had the best tacos Birria that I've ever had in my life. If I ever return to Salinas, this will be the first place I visit.
Good Burritos and tacos. They have other great items also. U must try
Me and my girlfriend try to come here every Tuesday! Can't go wrong for $1.50 a taco. I love the chicken & asada tacos! Check it out for yourself!
There is a special on Taco Tuesday, best time to grab some tacos. The pastor, cabeza, asada and chorizo is good meat. Tasty and tender. So far has been consistent whenever ordered. Haven't tried any other meat. The asada fries are delicious. Am a fan of the melted cheese used. Big portion as well, very filling. Also really enjoyed the sopes. Not to much masa, lots of meat, and a good amount of toppings. Have ordered these twice and both times were flavorful. Am not a fan of spicy so both the red and green salsa are yummy. Haven't asked if they have anything hotter. Customer service is average, Haven't had any bad experiences in my 4 visits here. Wait has never been more than 10 minutes to receive my order (for 1 person). They take cash and cards. Lots of parking space. Easy to read menu. Mostly Spanish speaking staff. The Horchata is above average, not too sweet.

i love the food! it’s amazing but two red flags that always happen when i come to this location.. they’re stingy w the sauces, how do you old give me only 4 for like a bunch of tacos and quesadillas but it’s whatever. the other red flag is that i always want to eat inside but can’t because there’s always drunk people inside passed out, etc. and it makes me uncomfortable and grossed out to eat my food so i have to eat it in my car or wait until i get home. management shouldn’t allow this to happen.
first time here, had asked Google for a nearby Taqueria when I exited at Salinas. Burrito Al Pastor was really yummy, the aroma stood out as soon as I took the aluminum off the burrito, which wasn't wrapped super tight like most places but I appreciated the "homey" more natural way it was wrapped. May've been an issue if I was driving while eating. Horchata was yummy too! Would go back if I'm in town again. Appreciated the carrots, onions, and jalapenos on the side. Steady steam of local customers at 6:45pm on a Saturday- good sign.

Why is it every time I order delivery, my order is always wrong. I asked for red salsa on the side and the sopes showed up bare. No salsa in the bag. This is the fifth time I order delivery where they mess something up.
The tacos are great but they don’t even try putting any cilantro or cebolla.

On the third try my wife finally asked for a refund. Asked for a veggie burrito but wet. No meat. At that time would have been nice to say wet sauce has meat. I asked no meat. I ordered a shredded meat burrito. No cream extra cheese. I don't have a picture of her burrito but mine is more a rice burrito no shredded beef to see no beans no cheese. But the Pacifico was great 👍

Greasy taco Tuesday. The bottom of the plate had a pool of grease big enough to put in my car engine! The flavor was ok if you can get past all the oil.

Used to be my favorite salsa. They used to give you 1 salsa per plate and 25¢ for an extra 2 oz. Now they're good, they charge you 50¢ for 1 oz of salsa, double the price and less the product. Now the tacos are 50¢ more, for the misery of meat the give you. Found a new joint. A deals a deal but I like to get what I pay for and not settle for whatever. Costumers make the business.
Went in after I placed an order online. Not one employee in the restaurant spoke a speck of English.😳First time my 40 years that has happened to me in Salinas. Basically was shooing me away when somebody placed a black bag next to her that had my name on it. Pastor was horrible. Bad management. 5pm Monday 2/17
I’m so disappointed. Some of you ladies (not all) that work here should be ashamed. This is the 3rd time u have been racist towards my husband when he comes in to order. He doesn’t feel welcome when he’s in this restaurant. just because he doesn’t know how to speak spanish doesn’t give you the right to ignore him! Bad customer service!!! Never coming back. Guadalajara has better food and are NOT racist to their customers.

Sopes were so disappointing. No Cheese, N sour cream and no Avocado slices. Very poor quality. Would not recommend and will not go back. There are other places with better food.
