Taqueria El Amigo: A Flavorful Journey in Santa Ana

I love everything about this place. I drive out of my way to come here and eat. I recommend to anyone!

This place has excellent customer service and the food is always served fresh and hot. Never had a bad experience here.

Had the wet burrito and it was fairly good. The meat wasn't nervie or fatty. The meat rice and beans were proportinate. Good taste. The salsas had great flavor but the chips with beans were slightly flavorless, good thing they were free. In my opinion the place was pricey, we ordered 3 wet burritos and 3 drinks for $57. I honestly dont think the food was worth $57. The service and staff was very friendly and attentive.

It's a family own business The dad cooks the food The mom takes the orders, and the daughter, too, takes orders. They're incredible family and nice people, my girlfriend loves the sopes, the homemade sopes, and I love the chicken wet burrito And the Camarones ala Diabla bomb lol specially If you're hungover, I recommend this

First time here, I tried the menudo very good flavor

Perfection.. So so delicious.. If I could give it a 20 I would, it was that good. 8:00 am and glad they were opened, we did the drive thru. Looked very clean all around the outside. We ordered the Carne Asada burrito and Taquitos. We received our order fast, Servives was friendly. My son loved the carne Asada burrito he said it was very delicious. I had the Taquitos, presentation was a 20+ Rice and beans with cotija cheese over the very tasty beans, 3 taquitos perfectly crispy, sour cream and guacamole and cotija cheese over them. So so good. If ever in this area again, we will definitely do a stop and eat here again .

First time being in that area. Was going through nearby food places and felt this one felt more inviting. Was empty when we went so it was nice and calm. Food was amazing. Order some tacos of asada which came with rice and beans with tostitos and lettuce. Parents and grandparents orders other dishes which they say were delicious. I mean my grandpa liked the food so much he was hoping my grandma wouldnt finish hers so he can eat it. Anyways food and drink were perfect. Service was also good didn't have any issues. Looked and felt clean so didn't hesitate to eat.

My absolute hands down favorite local taco spot. I'm not even joking when I say I dream about these tacos on the daily. My go to? The taco especiale, which comes with 4 carne asada tacos and avocado with home made hot sauce. The service is quick and efficient. It's a really small spot so I usually just order takeout but if you don't mind waiting there are about 5 small tables. It's authentic and absolutely delicious. I feel lucky to be so close!

Ah yes, so many good memories of the food from this place. It's a small restaurant with food that has big flavor, one of the best places to get takeout in the area if you ask me. I had the carnitas burrito and while I feel like maybe there was a little too much lettuce in there, it was delicious. The pork was perfect, one could call it perfect pork. The little containers of hot sauce that comes with the food is so good, highly recommend putting some on a few bites, but keep in mind this hot sauce has a bit of a kick!

You know this place is good when a lot of customers were Spanish speaking. It's a small place with only ~4 small tables. Street parking only. I heard it used to be cash only but they do accept credit cards now. They make your food to order. So if you order there, know that you have to wait a bit. I heard about this place for years but never tried it until this past weekend. I went around 4pm thinking it will be off hours but it was still crowded. And there was still a flow of take out orders. I ordered the cabeza and lengua taco especiales which came with 4 tacos. It was very filling and super flavorful. I didn't see a drink menu but they have horchata on tap and I think some agua Fresca. They also have bottled drinks. One of the best tacos in the area! Can't believe that I slept on this gem for so long. Can't wait to go back and try their other tacos including the birria.
