Tacos AlPastor Spring Valley

It was okay. The adobada fries were no where close to the other location on Imperial ave. The meat was dry and burnt. I would never recommend that plate at this location. The mini tacos were ok. The only thing that tasted good was the shrimp quesataco! That tasted really good and would be the only thing I would order from here.

I knew this place initially as "Taqueria La Imperial," an under-the-radar authentic Baja-style taqueria in Spring Valley that is part of a chain started in Tijuana. During a visit this past summer, I found the name had changed to "Taqueria Los Famosos," even though the restaurant is under the same ownership. The interior is the same. The people working there are the same. The menu is mostly the same, though when I tried to order a "Suadero Taco," I was told they don't do suadero anymore. Apparently suadero is low-margin. Good to know. Instead of the suadero I came here for, I ordered the "Buche Taco." Buche, essentially sliced pig stomach, is one of the least offal-like popular offal meats traditionally put into tacos. Buche's neutral pork flavor and chewy texture make it a popular meat t

My favorite place. I just tried the Campechana Cali Burrito. It's just like a California Burrito, but with Carne Asada and Adobada Al Pastor mixed in with the cheese sour cream and fries. New favorite burrito. Ask about the new Papas con Carne. It's like a loaded baked potato on crack! It's a mashed potato with cheese any meat on the menu of you choice, guacamole and cilantro. It comes with crispy corn tortillas as well (tostada shells). Exclusive to this restaurant!

Saw this small place down the street from a job I was on and decided to give it a try. I was happy to see the different varieties of tacos they had but quickly saddened when the 2 kinds I wanted they didnt have. I ended up trying the adobada tacos. Man am I glad I did. The meet was well seasoned and pretty moist. The salsa they use was good with a mild heat and a little smokiness from what tasted like poblano peppers. I must say they were pretty tasty and a lot better than some other places in the area.

Tonight was my second time visiting this Mexican restaurant. I purchased a carne asada quesadilla and a can soda. I liked both their green and red salsa. The green one though is a little better than the red one due to tastiness and spiciness. I did like the quesadilla yet I consider it to be over priced and it simply has cheese with meat. The quesadilla is priced at $9.49 in dollars. No vegetables are included on the side or inside like cilantro and onions. I would recommend adding those two veggie ingredients inside, and even carrots or radish and a jalapeño on the side to give as an idea.
