I like fresh taco. There are a lot a dumb reviews about how this isn't "authentic" Mexican food. It's literally not, I'd consider it it's own category...let's call it Chexmex. Owned by Chinese people, these styles of fast food restaurant were all over the city in the 1990s. It's really no frills, super cheap and honestly delicious. I would not come here and order seafood. Or anything else elaborate for that matter. I come here strictly for 3 ground beef crunchy tacos served with lettuce tomato and hot sauce for $8.50. They're like tacobell style but have a hand made quality to them which makes them very unique. I would take away one star but I'm just gonna leave five bc their yelp page needs some love, but it's just sort of annoying that they're cash only in the era of Apple Pay. Like I know these places come from the 90s but it doesn't mean we need to pay like it's the 90s. Get a card reader please and I'll be here all the time.
Love the steak taco bowl . Plus the place is small but the people are friendly and it's a perfect environment.
Although it looks like a regular Chinese takeout restaurant, it serves great food. My best friend introduced to this place. Everytime that I've visited and ordered food, it was great. However, the guacamole is missing a few ingredients and I didn't enjoy with my chips. I will continue to come here as long as I keep getting good food and great service.
Been eating here for years. I love the 99cents burrito. It's just lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and a lil chicken on a soft chewy hand pressed tortilla. Simple and a buck.
