Sal's Tacos A La Mexicana: Reviews & Ratings

5 stars for their tripa tacos! I usually have to emphasize to taquerias to make my tripas extra extra crispy but at Sal's they ask if you would like them medium or crispy. Their salsa bar includes one hot red salsa and one medium salsas verde with all the fixings such as radish, lime, pickled carrots and jalapeños, also cucumbers! Their al pastor mulitas are also very tasty! This is a small business I will continue to support :)

I took my friend who never tried wet burritos in his life here and it changed his whole perspective on wet burritos, the food here is very flavorful especially the asada meat. The service was straight forward and good the employees were on-top of the customer demands. The ambiance was great too, I went on slow hours to not deal with packed tables or noisy ambiance but it was very peaceful. Food: 9/10 Service: 8/10 Ambiance: 7/10 4/5 stars

These asada street tacos are good! You can tell they use good quality beef...it's flavorful, juicy, and not dry. I like that they keep it simple and basic. The asada burrito is just as good--fluffy rice and loaded with meat. Parking is easy, and the owners are super friendly.

This place has great tacos, horchata, and and salsa. The meat is good quality as well at the tortillas they use. Definitely recommend this place.

Really great tacos. Their chips are hot and fresh and really good with salsas and even better with the beans. The service is very slow because they make each order one at a time (comes out very hot and fresh!) so do not go in for a quick bite, or call ahead and allow plenty of time.

The best Mulitas in town. Nacho plate is monster big. Don't pass up this gem of a family style Mexican restaurant. Very clean, large portions, family run. Best juice bar and salsa bar.

Let's start off by saying it is pricey but then again so is the local taco truck. This place is no more expensive than the local roach coach but way better! It can take a while to get your food but worth it. Don't come in too hungry as you may way 20-30 plus minutes for a burrito and sope. Great food, pricey, you can wait a while but still 4 stars. Do know what you are getting into coming here. Btw, WHERE Is MY FOOD?!?!?!?

Everything is so well seasoned and the tortillas come out crunchy and hot. Salsas are on point!

Sal's is still hands down the best Mexican food in Orange County. I brought a buddy of mine here today and he was blown away by the quality, he's lived not far from there and wishes he knew about Sals sooner. Absolutely amazing quality, stellar service from all of the staff, very clean/cute vibes, and tons of options for everyone. Portions are incredible too, and I think that they also cater from what I understand, so be sure to check them out for that too. Stellar visit once again, thanks Sal's!!!
