Great location and reasonable prices for a quick tasty nosh before catching a show at the Lesher. Crispy fried taco shells, some special plates that split well. A nice salsa bar. No frills with decor but friendly and with a local vibe.

Service was ok- nice, packed well. However, not sure if I would've gotten a better price on the tacos had I gotten something other than six. Didn't get any recommendations there. Food was not great. Overcooked hard bland carne asada, meh salsas. Strange eggs with a lot of sauce and peppers. Restaurant seems clean, but cold, industrial atmosphere.

Nice Mexican restaurant in Walnut Creek. The restaurant opens at 10:00. I ordered at the cashier Chilaquiles Verdes, a plate that comes with rice, beans, crema on the plate with a green savory sauce mixed together with crispy tortilla chips and an over easy egg right on top, you can add meat for extra price if you like, the tortillas were in point, not soggy and you can feel the crunch on every bite. I’m glad I ordered Al pastor taco, a marinated pork in adobo with smoking, tender, sweet, crackling thinly slices overflowing two tortillas. The place has a help yourself salsa bar with fresh tortilla chips and several sauces to choose from. The prices are most affordable with a well kept area with seating outside.

I come here almost every week to pick up a few of my favorites. The al pastor, carne asada, and carnitas are all excellent — flavorful and consistent every time. Good service and friendly staff. One of the best local spots

I really enjoyed my dining experience here. The carne asada was delicious and the tacos great as well. The fish tacos were okay, because they were grilled they lack a diversity of texture in the bite and so I don't think they shine as much. The dining is pretty laid back and there a nice salsa and chips bar that is self serve which I appreciated. Good stopping point if out and about in Walnut Creek downtown for a few quick bites.

UPDATE: After some other visits, they fixed the problem and they deserve a better evaluation. They improved the service. The food is amazing, my family loves… OLD REVIEW: I requested a receipt and they refused to give me (just the proof of payment and allowed me to get a picture from cash register). I’m a corporate client (need to show invoice for expense report) and it was unacceptable. If you want to go there and need receipts, forget!

Taco Tuesday! Wow, the dynamite street tacos, chips and salsa, and horchata for 10.99. These days you can't beat that. And the tacos I got (two pork al pastor with pineapple salsa, one chicken) were a little greasy, but super tasty. They give you a number and I didn't have to wait long, maybe 5 minutes. Tacocat out!

The service here was outstanding. Music was on point. Even though they have counter order, they make you feel welcome. We ordered the Combination Platers. One with two Crispy Taco's with Rice & Beans and another order with One Crispy Shredded Beef & Enchiladas. The food was served pippin hot. Just one bite and you will fill the joy. The Cooks makes your food with much love. If you haven't tried them. you really need to take the time. This place is awesome.
