Thumbs up Best Mexican fast food- in the World

Taco Time.


I've been eating fast food for 50+ years. This place is legendary. About 300+
locations in Ore., Wash. Utah. People in So Cal that have had them, in other states; die for them in the same way you would miss In n' Out. Beats everyplace,from El Tepeyac in LA; to Santa Fe, New Mexico, and everything in between.

Just now coming to So Cal. One in Garden Grove (sorry, not that great). 2 in downtown LA= excellent. Not tried El Segundo one. Go to their web, for locations. AND it's inexpensive.


Get crispy bean burrito, dip into house salsa. WOW....

Better than Tepeyac? Wow, that's a bold statement, I'll have to try them!

It all depends on what you consider Mexican Food, to me the tacos from Tacos Raul and Tacos Zavala in Bellflower are Mexican Food. They are soft tacos on corn tortillas with cilantro, onions, and green or red salsa.

Anybody that can make very good Tacos al Pastor has my endorsement (and yes, I also eat tacos de lengua and tacos de cabeza).

Yeah, I'm a bit skeptical of 500 locations and just now coming to So.Cal. I'll give it a shot if there's one by me.

Nobody knows Mexican food like Salt Lake City.

Wonder if they'll have the Osmonds and Karl Malone at the new store opening?

Completely different places. This is not a sit down with drinks restaraunt. If
I want that- I'll get green corn tamales from El Cholo.

This is TASTY $3.00 burrito for lunch or snack.

Have you ever been to Los Sanchez? Not fine dining. You order at the counter and wait for your number to be called. Just because it doesn't have a drive thru doesn't mean it's not fast food.

I went the day it opened (all the way from San Clemente). Perhaps it is better now, but opening day it was only good, not great. The owner said he had to substitute some ingredients due to not having what is normally called
for, because it was opening day. Give it a shot. It's like $2.50 for a burrito.

For you to even mention del taco in this chat, speaks volumes about your
tastes.

Thanks.

Is this similar to the alazanes/albertacos/albertas/albertos burrito places?
