Picante Mexican Food

Lots of critics here about meat content, I am having a super burrito stuffed with asada. The place is clean and well staffed. The salsa bar has spicy carrots, guac. I had a super burrito and .5litre coke and was charged $ 12.65 I paid $ 15 with tip, and would visit this location and their other locations as the chance presence itself. Awesome for the working man. Huge proportions, plenty of parking, parked with an Isuzu 15′ box truck

Overly expensive, & extra charges for refills, using credit cards. Not satisfied. Food was ok.

Tried this place, for the first time, the al pastor burrito was good could have used a little more meat? In the burrito, gave this place a 2^nd chance, some thing with the burrito, too much beans and rice not enough meat,

Nasty and expensive. $ 7.50 California burrito with only meat and fries in it .
Got a $ 5.50 shrimp ceviche with about 3 shrimps in it.

Overall, I give this restaurant a 3. The food was excellent, tasty, and hot. Great carnitas, beans and chile rellenos, with homemade thick tortillas. The watermelon juice was refreshing. The negatives — prices were a bit high for a facility that didn’t have much of a Mexican restaurant atmosphere. But, my wife and I agreed that the tasty food was worth paying a buck or two more. I didn’t like the refill charges which should be free rather than $ 1. The service was also weak. The young lady working was friendly. But, spent most of her time in the back talking with the cooks, not checking up on us to see if we needed anything. We had to ask for extra napkins and get up to get the bill and pay. It was about 6pm and no one else was sitting in the restaurant but us. Though, there was a family who came in who seemed to be related to the owners as the kids and mother went back into the kitchen section a few times. I would probably return to try their tacos or burritos.

Their food is very very good I’m very satisfied with the food and will be coming back very soon

WAY WAY WAY over priced. dried crusty bean burrito. Lost my buisness

I went through the drive thru and the service was horrible. I waited about 20 minutes mind you I was the only car. First she charged me extra and I had to go over the order with her because everything was screwed up. She was on the phone when I pulled up so I’m pretty sure she was distracted. I had ordered a shrimp cocktail and she messed it up and said I had ordered the one with octopus too. I clarified it again with her. When I get home I find a small piece of octopus which makes me think they had it prepared and just took the octopus out. I didn’t finish it and just threw it away because I was disgusted. Horrible customer service don’t bother!

Had heard about this place a while ago & finally decided to try it. WOW. My expectations shattered. It’s a tiny little place but their food is excellent! We ordered the st tacos, tortas & a burrito… all VERY tasty. Would definitely go back!

Absolutely the worst service. Took 20 mins in the drive thru, and I was the only one. Burrito was $ 7. Small and terrible. Had the shredded beef, there was probably 4 bites worth that had meat. Now less than 2 hours later, I’m sick with food poisoning. Ugh, someone should call the health department on them… please

I’ve been here a few times already and have to say that the food here is pretty good. You do have to wait for them to prepare the food so don’t get impatient. I’ve had there carne Asada fries and they have been the best I’ve had so far. They cut nice pieces of Asada and give you the nice lean cuts not the fatty stuff. Their burritos are a good size and are really stuffed. Try the shredded beef, with some green salsa! This place hasn’t let me down!

So far everything I have order is good. But their green chilaquiles are so far the best in the area. Their scrambled eggs are super soft. Love It

The food is great, the reason I’m giving them a one star is because their service is horrible, & I mean horrible! They always mess up my co-​workers order, even though all she asks for are tacos without the onion and cilantro, but they always put it in her tacos. They always have one waitress struggling, hello?! Get another person to help. And once when we said they hadn’t made our order right, the waitress started arguing with us, really? So unprofessional, she then apologized and said that we were right and that the cook didn’t read the order ticket right, wow!

I wanted to check this out since I was hungry and was doing work in the area. It’s Fontana, so it’s quiet, at least at this time. Lots of truck traffic on Cherry, but it wasn’t terribly disruptive. There’s a parking lot and a drive thru area.
Very pleasant server /​cashier. They speak English and Spanish. The place is clean, including the men’s room. They have small tacos, larger tacos in other styles, as well as breakfast items, taquitos, burritos, seafood items, etc. There is a small salsa bar with several salsas, limes, and peppers. I paid cash, so I don’t know if they accept cards.
Chips were hot and seasoned. They were just a tiny bit salty, but not offensive. They were very fresh and crisp. The Horchata was perfect — not too sweet, and tasted fresh. I ordered four small «TJ style» traditional tacos — al pastor, asada, lengua, and cabeza. The asada was fantastic. Not chewy, not hard, just tender and with a good flavor. The lengua was so soft and tender. The cabeza was also tender and flavorful. The al pastor looked to be too seasoned, but upon tasting wasn’t bad at all. It’s not the best pastor I’ve had but was pretty delicious nonetheless. The tortillas… I’m used to them being really greasy and falling apart. Not here. I’d like a little more juice but they were good. Good flavor, and good for those that don’t like to get their hands dirty.
I’m not around these parts often, but I can see myself coming here a bit while I work on this project. Try this place out! I know I’ll be.

I was hesitant to try this place because it shares the same name as the place on the corner of Baseline and Cherry and that place is awful.
Back to this place, they have a drive-​thru and that’s a plus. I orders pretty much every kind of meat for their tacos. The asada was great, had flavor and was fresh. The lengua was good as well, good flavor and fresh. The tripas were really good and I like the fact that they ask you if you want them extra crispy or regular. The El Pastor was ok, not as much flavor as it should have but good. My son had an order of asada fries and they were actually really good. The salsas are great, the red is full of flavor and green guacamole is awesome. The staff is friendly, that’s a plus. I would recommend this place.

Nice fresh Mexican food.
A true gem in Fontana.
Torta is huge and freshly made.
Taquitos are nice with guacamole.
Chips are hot and crunchy.
Salsa bar is good. The salsa de aguacate and green sauce are delicious.
Will definitely come back if I’m in the area.

Wow!!! It was amazing. The price was a little high but it was worth it. Service was really good my little brother was to scared to order but after he did the lady brought him a free drink. I prefer the bean and cheese burrito over the Carne asada. They have 3 sauces to choose from they are all delicious.

Favorite Mexican food place, hands down. They have the best Pozole in town. Authentic Mexican food at its finest & it’s for a great price! The customer service is phenomenal, makes you feel like part of the family. So glad we found this place, my new favorite Sunday brunch routine:)
