Cuca's Mexican Food

"Cuca's Mexican Food at 26676 Portola Pkwy in Lake Forest, CA, provided a mixed dining experience. The chicken burrito and all-meat carnitas burrito each earned 3 stars, while the 2 chicken tacos impressed with 4 stars. Unfortunately, the 3 chile relleno platters were served without tortillas, and the chilies were uncomfortably cold, earning them 2 stars. This oversight significantly impacted the overall satisfaction, resulting in a 2-star rating for the overall dining experience."

"Great atmosphere, great food. Abondigas were excellent. I can't to come back here again"

"Our family had Cuca’s catered, everything was perfect! Emerald was such a big help to us and we are truly grateful for for the experience we had. I want to thank everyone who took the effort to make our event special. The enchiladas, chicken, carne asada and sides were perfect! Thank you again for your outstanding service."

"Been here multiple times prices are good, unfortunately zero flavor on their meat. Seen a couple eating some chicken nachos, so definitely was gonna try that. Ordered them and their was no flavor. Their chicken was dry and completely white, no seasoning no flavor. I was only able to eat ¼ of the plate. Later day came back to try their most ordered burrito and same thing zero flavor. Ate ½ of it and left. Came back yesterday and asked to try their Enchiladas. I specified and requested to season their meat and they said no definitely not its already cooked. So I got their Enchiladas had them put extra red sauce on so that way I hopefully could finish my plate. And I was only able to eat half of them till I ran out of red sauce. They do have really good chips and salsa tho."

"Awesome little place here in Foothill Ranch, Ca. Lots of parking. They offer dine-in and pick up. Sit inside or sit outside, last night was just perfect to sit outside and enjoy the perfect weather and delicious food! You order at the cashier, take a number, grab your drink, grab your utensils and salsas, and then find a place to sit! Good amount of sits inside and out. Perfect place for family dine-in, groups or even if you fly solo. Lots of choices to choose from. If you don’t eat spicy, make sure you tell them. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and kind. When the food is ready, they’ll bring it to your table! We tried their new items, the shrimp tacos, mine came with beans and rice for $14. The tacos were filled with a really good amount of food, they were very filling, plus the rice and beans. It was all well cooked, fresh, and delicious. Mine was spicy, I forgot to tell them about it lol, I don’t eat spicy, but I still ate them because they were mouth watering lol. They also make their own chips, my wife really enjoyed them, and so did I, pairing them with a guacamole dip or the other salsas. It was really good to be honest. I’ll be coming back next weekend Lord willing! Hope my daughter likes them too! The atmosphere inside was nice and relaxing. Nice decorations, and very spacious the restaurant!"
