Unsure of what I wanted for lunch, I passed by Sanchos taqueria. Walked in and was greeted by the cashier. At his suggestion, I ordered up a pair of fried fish tacos. Luckily I had cash in my wallet as this is a cash only establishment. Restaurant was clean, decorated nicely with TVs mounted to help pass time while waiting on your food. Went to wash hands in the washroom and it was clean and well stocked. Food is brought out to your table when it is ready. Fish tacos hit the spot. They were really good and I would order them again. Highly recommend!
As someone who really likes tacos I sure do like the carne asada tacos from here! I will say they are a bit pricey. Service isn't too great. Cash only but over all pretty good!
Food was great and portions were a good size ordered online. Only one comment was a bit difficult to understand how to customize but put it in the note and they got it all right. Ordered the grilled chicken wet burrito and tacos
No frills, quick order taqueria on poorly printed menu In need of sustenance quickly and popped in for tacos, order came out within 10 mins Great little salsa bar to sauce up your meal Shrimp taco came loaded with shrimp and bell peppers, served on a flour taco. Carne asada taco was hefty as well with cilantro and onion on corn tortilla Not a Michelin taco, but hits the spot on a pinch Do note they're cash only, but they have an atm on site
Hole in the wall taqueria Fast service, made fresh. Their meat is tender - fish is light and crispy. Steak is juicy. Their prices are a bit high but the portions are huge. Like a single fish taco was plenty to satisfy that craving. And oh, it's cash only
I've seen some reviews about this place falling out, so my disclaimer is I only go here for the fish tacos. This review is based on that. Palo Alto location: Parking can be tricky, inside ordering area is small so it can get crowded fast. Ambiance, none really. A few metal tables outside, very little seating inside and some back patio seating as well. It's good for a quick bite or for take out. Service is nothing to rave about. It's very basic, order what you want and pay. Food: again just about the fish tacos. Consistent. Flavor is there, pretty large portions, could use a little less slaw.
Ordered this burrito on Uber eats. I got both salsas and a super burrito with chicken. The burrito was flavorful and fresh. I wish the salsas were more spicy, but they were still delicious. I added my own hot sauce at home for more spice. It was a perfect size too for the price. Can't speak tot he service or ambiance inside but will definitely order this again when I'm craving a burrito
Nom nom nom CARNITAS TACOS.... man so very good! That may have been the best carnitas I've had in a long time, tender without being fatty, not too salty and spiced just right. So good. I was a little surprised at the price, since they were about twice as much as I expect to spend on street style tacos, but they were so worth it. Good selection of beverages. My dining companions had a chili verde burrito (rated Pretty good nicely spiced) and a Chicken Mole burrito (He was happy) We sat outside but the inside looked clean and comfy, with a small dining area, and really pretty tile. The food was ready pretty quick despite the lunch rush and they brought it outside to us which was very nice.
