Taqueria El Gran Amigo

"If you like your carne asada as bland as boiled steak then come here. Looks and tastes like it. Ate over 50 different taqueria spots and this one is bottom 10, not because it's not fresh, just the way the meat is prepped and the overall taste. 15 dollar for a quesadilla, I expected more"

"No reward for being a repeat customer. I went there one day I bought a super taco $4.25. The first time I got three sauces and chips. The second time time I got one sauce and chips. The third time I got one sauce and no chips. The fourth time same order no sauce was included and I had to ask one. I also asked for chips and she said, “for one taco, you get no chips” . She seemed bitter towards me for always buying just one taco. I didn’t do anything except being a repeat customer. I was disgusted with her behavior. She might be the owner and wanted more of my money but that is all I could afford. I’m hoping that she is just not a worker, because that is no way to treat a repeat customer. I felt like I was being punished for just buying one taco and nothing else. The food is great, and that is why I kept coming back. No more, disgusted with her behavior."

"It’s over 90 degrees outside. It’s cool in the food court. I have the Tamale Plate ($11.14). The tamales are good with good amount of chicken stuffing. The salad is fresh. The rice and beans are not salty, not greasy. It’s a very good and nutritious lunch at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. Just one complaint—the very, very small fork and spoon prevent me to fully enjoy my meal. At least, with the Plate items we should have more decent fork at least. 8/32/2023"

"The lady at the cash register has no manners. Not practising clean food serving putting the receipt on top of the food. Would have. been ok in the beginning when it was wrapped with aluminum foil but this cashier was lazy and no manners."

"Finally a mall taqueria that is authentic and isn't Chipotle. They serve a good variety of Mexican food here, but be forewarned that it is more expensive than typical taqueria prices (upcharge for carne asada? really?)."
