El Bracero of Clarksville Morris Rd – Menu with Prices – 112 Morris Rd, Clarksville

We enjoyed our dinner– Carne Asada steak for my Sweetie…and the Wet Burrito w/beef tips for me. Our server Linsey was quite helpful in sorting out options from among the many dishes on the restaurant’s massive menu. Lots of Tex-Mex standards, and plenty of house specialties too. All are reasonably priced, and the portions very generous. The Carne Asada offered enticing aromas and an attractive presentation, featuring roasted garlic bulb and jalapeño. Little wonder it’s a favorite dish among the regulars. I was impressed with the tender, flavorful chunks of beef in my burrito as well. Couldn’t put down my fork…even tho it would have been enough for two meals! A tasty margarita topped things off. Well worth the stop, after a long day’s drive — just what we were looking for!

Ricos Tacos De Jalisco – Menu with Prices – 396 S Mt Vernon Ave, San Bernardino

We ordered a Carne Asada Torta, carne Asada sope, and a carne Asada taco. It was all pretty good and could be worth a return. Still looking to find a great spot so for now this up there in my list of good places to eat. It’s pretty lively at night and the champurrado was delicious but pricey $2.95 for a small. My total order was around $16.45 which is my only issue it’s pretty expensive for the area.

Tacos El Cuate De Obregon – Menu with Prices – 4817 S 12th Ave, Tucson

What a gem this taco truck is. We hit it up before heading out to Beerfest in Tempe. I can only speak to the Sonoran dogs and the carne asada, but WOW WOW wow… wow.. ok. The Sonoran dogs are really great! I have had sonoran dogs from BK, El Guero, Karamelo King, etc. Their Sonoran dogs are just as good, if not better. They also include a bacon wrapped cheese filled pepper with the dogs… those are pretty fantastic as well. The carne asada I ordered came in two forms… tacos and a caramello. I think I was hungry that day. The carne asada is legit here, and believe me, I order carne asada from every Mexican place I hit up. I just have to say, if you happen to be driving by and wanting some good taco truck food, don’t pass this one up. Oh, I am pretty sure it is cash only as well.

Tacos y tortas san bernardino – Menu with Prices – 331 9th St # 7, San Bernardino

I feel KINDA bad about rating this place two stars after coming here and NOT trying a Torta (I mean, it IS called Tortas, Las Glorias after all). Anyway, I went with a carne asada burrito instead of a torta, and wasn’t rewarded for doing so. The burrito is filled with beans, cheese, rice, meat, onion and cilantro. My impression from the first bite: did I order an all rice burrito? Second bite: Dang! This meat is SALTY! Third through tenth bite: where’s the cheese in this thing? Overall, there is way too much rice in this hefty sized burrito. There is a generous amount of meat, but it is all way too salty to enjoy. Bite after bite, I searched for the cheese, but never found it (from a flavor standpoint, I did SEE the cheese in the burrito). Couple the taste of the food with the area in which the restaurant is located (in a sketchy part of San Berdoo) and I’m saying you can get way better Mexican food in the area. I’ll still come back one day to try a Torta (cuz’ I like to be thorough), but based on my first impressions, it’ll be a while before I give that a try.

Carniceria Castillo – Menu with Prices – 4426 S Central Ave, Phoenix

Take a trip south, south of downtown, south of the 17 to find your way to Carniceria Castillo for some of the best Carne Asada in Phoenix. Drive to south mountain take in a hike or the views and do yourself a favor and stop in for their cooked carne on your way back. You’ll find this market along the road, it’s easy to pass right by, but they’re likely cooking something out front on their BBQ grill and it’s probably the chicken or beef you’ll be eating in your tacos, burritos or nachos later that day and for the next few days to come. Order a couple pounds because two pounds magically seems like three or four every time I order. Don’t forget to peruse through the market for a Candy Coconut Roll, cause those things are awesome. Happy Yelping Phoenix, eat more carne asada and eat it from here.

La Familia Callejas Market – Menu with Prices – 608 Crouch St, Oceanside

The restaurant/market is low end and has signs of low volume business. The service is familiar and friendly. The food we ordered was average. We came for the restaurant but I looked around the market while we waited. There were some great prices on produce but freshness is questionable. Same with cold items. I would however, take advantage of their bakery, packaged tortillas and tortilla chips. Those all looked yummy. The key is to buy the items that sell frequently so you know you’re getting fresh product. As for the restaurant: My husband ordered carne asada fries, the kids ordered chicken taquitos, and I ordered pastor street tacos. We came on a Sunday afternoon and there was only one worker manning everything: cashier and food prep. That made food service slower than I looked forward to. But since there wasn’t any other customers, things moved along ok. The pastor tacos I ordered were very good and had full flavor. I’m definitely a fan and I will return for that ? The carne asada fries were not special. They came with crinkle cut fries like the kind you buy from the freezer section. The meat was shredded not chopped. The taquitos were well made and had bell peppers rolled into them. That made for a unique presentation and taste. The toppings were all around, not fresh. The lettuce and guacamole were browning. That was a major presentation and taste disappointment. But guacamole is expensive to make and has a short shelf life – this is a sign of low volume business. I would still come again, the street tacos were $1 each and on Tuesdays they are only .69 cents each. That’s so worth it! And the workers are friendly.

Mira Five Stars – Menu with Prices – 801 South Pointe Dr, Miami Beach

Stop!! Do not proceed to Mira. The worst dining experience I’ve ever had. Let’s start. Opulent looking room with an strange non-referential menu. Crazy prices (and I’m from Manhattan). We arrive – only 15-20 people in the restaurant (basically empty). Server is switch after we order water service. I order a Belvedere martini (up olives). 15 minutes later cocktail arrives – it’s a fake drink!! Watered down vodka with olives (not pitted). Maybe I have it wrong some I give my wife and daughter a taste. All agree taste like water. I send it back and the host is doubtful of my claim. Did he taste it I ask. No. Drink replaced with real vodka. Order food – Octopus app and avocado tomato tower. Tasteless. Bread service accompanies appetizers- bread is stale (including breadsticks). Guess they are serving day old bread because of lack of patrons. Main course arrives (whole branzino and tuna steak) – tasteless with the same rosemary as the apps. A total joke of a restaurant- avoid all all costs. May they close soon.

Arteaga’s Food Center – Menu with Prices – 2620 Alum Rock Ave, San Jose

I was very pleased I found this place on short notice. I saw they had tacos de chicharrón, ordered 3 of each , chicharrón, 3 of carne asada, 3 of cabeza.The best one of chicharrón they said did’t have. I was so disappointed. Made anothe choice, carne al pastor. I also wanted something sweet small like a Mexican jello. Something lite. No, they said they could not provide even if I paid seperate. All was for delivery. The delivery person had a Chicago number, I did’t know. Later after another call, was able to reiceve the Tacos which I chose the #1 box of 12 tacos with limes , Green sauce, tasted from can, the red sauce not good for my taste, not made fresh price was $$ ok for bringing to your door. Included tip. I think in Order to Order something for delivery you need to know in person who you Order from first, see what thy offer and not, for delivery.

Carniceria Latina Menu with Prices 2272 S Chambers Rd, Aurora

I’m Asian but grew up in Southern Cali (don’t hate), so I have lived in neighborhoods where the carne asada couldn’t be beat. I brought 3 lbs of carne asada from this place to a small party and it was the very first thing gone, and not without numerous compliments. So. Friggin’. Tasty. They package the fresh meat with marinade upon order in a plastic bag with a few citrus slices. I grilled it within 3 hours of buying it and it was marinated perfectly and tender to boot. My Spanish is horrible. I tried to speak for the sake courtesy, but English-only speakers should not be shy or intimidated about coming here, they cater to all cultures. The employees are so kind!

El Toro Meat Market – Menu with Prices – 1329 E 4th St, Ontario

I’m a fan! One of the best places in the Inland Empire for Carne Asada! You can have them prepare the Carne Asada for you (giving it the best possible taste) which they also run it through a machine that presses it, and then they marinate which allows the meat to absorb the juices and be as tender as possible. This meat shop has been around for MANY years, since I was a kid my parents would obtain the meat from here. Their produce such as Avocados are always on point; ready to be consumed. Some cool things: # They can marinate/prep the meat for you # You can call in advance, and place an order and walk in and check out (no waiting) # Great service # One stop shop; from produce, meat to Mexican remedies, etc. Some disappointing things: # Only accepts cash or debit… ARGH…. I love using Amex, for my points!!! Overall, not a bad spot and the best I’ve had in the Inland Empire, I’m a fan ?

Tipzys Tacos – Menu with Prices – 3848 E Belmont Ave, Fresno

It’s ok. We tried a variety: Carne asada tacos: meat was kinda bland,my wife’s taco had burned bits. Chicken tacos: bland, no flavor really at all Shrimp tacos: my favorite of the three, but that’s not saying much. Carne asada quesadilla: my son said the one from Taco Bell is as good. Asada fries: crinkle cut frozen fries with mozzarella cheese and carne asada. Fine because we were hungry. Probably wouldn’t have rung bells if we weren’t starved. Chips – you get a basket of chips with paprika or chili powder on them. They are $1.25 and you don’t get anything with them. Don’t get me wrong, they have a salsa bar but they only had tiny little cups- like 2tsp – to put salsa in and wouldn’t give us anything bigger. Super lame, that. As far as the actual salsas- the pico was the best thing about this dinner. Jalapeños were tiny- good knife skills- so you got that yummy fresh pop of hot without it being overwhelming. The ancho chili salsa is good, my wife said the green one was good. The carrots looked gross, I didn’t get any. The cabbage was diced, which I thought was weird. It was also in a container filled to the brim with water. Maybe to keep the cabbage fresh but anything I put cabbage on (how I usually like my tacos) tasted predominantly like water. Not good. No fountain drinks, you buy by the can (or bottle for water) and drink it from the can/bottle. We didn’t have any beer. Murals were beautiful, the rest of the decor was dated and uncomfortable.

Los Plebes ” Tacos & Mariscos ” Menu with Prices 9830 Florida Blvd, Baton Rouge

If I could give this good truck more than 5 stars I would. I drive all the way to austin from Baton Rouge specifically to go eat at food trucks. This one is by far one of the best food trucks I’ve ever eaten at. Not only is their food GORGEOUS and not sloppy, but it’s priced right and it’s super tasty! It’s mainly seafood items, (mariscos = seafood in Spanish) but they have some of the best carne asada street tacos EVER. Holy cow. If you love spicy food, Mexican food, and seafood….. you gotta check this truck out! I had the Mitotera (shrimp, calamari, scallop, octopus in a spicy sauce… basically a spicy seafood ceviche!) and carne asada tacos and shrimp tacos. They gave us 4 diff types of salsa, all of which were some of the best salsas I’ve ever had!
