★★★★★ 5.0 Luis Arellano · Mar 2026

What more can be said. This wonderful restaurant offers some of the best Mexican food in Southern California. We ordered the torta de asada, taco superior de buche, asada nachos and an esquite. Every single bite was a wonderful experience. I added the mango habanero sauce to my torta and it paired so well, it added that sweetness to the torta that elevated the food. The taco was also absolutely amazing. None of the food was dry or bland, the tortilla was even delicious on its own. I would highly highly recommend stopping by for a quick bite and try the Aguas Fresca too! Thank you Ixmoto Taqueria for the vibes!

I think service and food has gone down over the years!! First off, they don't even answer their phone for take outs!! 2nd, the new girl is terrible at taking orders. I kept repeating myself 5x to tell her one shrimp taco and two calamari tacos. What I got was two shrimp tacos and 2 calamari tacos. And I repeated myself so many times, that calamari is fried and shrimps are grilled!! Get someone that understands English and pays attention!!also, their nachos superior is not at all superior!! It's mediocre!! They used to have all kinds of colorful sauces, but this time around, it looked pretty plain with only guacamole and sour cream!! I even asked for extra sauces on the side in case they forgot, I used them all and was in need of more salsas!! Not so sure about going back there any

The service is amazing. The staff are so patient and friendly! The tacos are was so delicious!! Also their salsa and homemade hot sauces are so good! Definitely recommend to get their dragon fruit drink if available! Also there are dog friendly tacos!! Only thing is parking, just find street parking.

Came here for a quick bite and loved it! Only ordered chips and one taco — super flavorful and freshly made. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely planning to come back again with my wife to try more dishes. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!

Love the food here. We got the nachos, 3 taco de asada and 2 buche taco superior. The taco is similar but more "advance" version of it. The options are plentiful. Love the atmosphere and the guy at the cashier was cool.
