Found this place the other day and have gone here twice. Great food and service each time.

We ordered menudo. We were given the wrong tortillas & meat on soft taco. We were never offered more salsa & when I asked for more chips I was told that there was additional charge. The waitress left we weren’t told we would have new server. Poor customer service this isn’t the first time I had a bad experience. I got wrong orders on to go orders twice with attitude when I called.

Great Mexican food place. Mostly seemed like people take to go from here. Tacos are good sized especially when other places give you smaller and smaller ‘street tacos.’

Good food but Spanish rap music too loud Couldn’t get out of there soon enough

The food is always very good. Very casual. No special decor. They should lower the lights a bit for some ambience. Servers and bus personnel are all very nice but service is pretty bad sometimes. Good cocktails and great prices.

Tio Chavas is highly recommended! Best Mexican food I have ever had hands-down. Also the owner is a very cool individual and takes care of all of his customers, I would give this restaurant 10 stars if I could

Well, it’s a really busy part of town. Disneyland is not far. Our server was great, however they were really busy. The place was a little messy and the floors were really sticky. There was a lot of seating outside though, it was just really loud and crowded. The food we ordered was Wednesday Outback Special. It came with the smallest steak and the thinnest chicken, so I guess you get what you pay for. It was only 10 99.

Love coming here on Taco Tuesday! Tucked away and super casual vibe. Good pricing on both good and drink and the food is great! Would definitely recommend if you happen to be in the neighborhood and are in the mood for authentic Mexican food.

This place is amazing the salsa is always fresh, the place is clean and the service is great! I love the shredded beef tacos , rice and beans are perfect and my fiancee always orders the asada plate. The horchata is yummy too! this place never disappoints and has very fair pricing!

It’s… Ok. After reading all the reviews about the service I was excited to see what it’s all about. Unfortunately we were met with mediocre service and low quality food. The carnitas was extremely dry and seemingly double or triple reheated. The outside was hard and the inside was still very dry, a huge letdown. The beans tasted better than they looked but still werent very good. Overall, a very underwhelming experience.
