...which I guess makes sense, as I am writing a review. It is not expensive; I'd say less than $30 for four people eating quite a bit. When you enter, you choose a station (based on what that station is preparing) and order there. I loved the tacos from the far-right station (Pork Adobada). More

Really good tacos! These are the real deal authentic tacos!!! If you are tired of americanized tacos go to Gordos! Small joint, very casual, no beer served but these are the tacos you have been looking for! Yum! Service is at the counter but the people who work there are friendly and nice. More

We used our GPS to find this place after reading you get the best taco outside of Tijuana.

I agree with the other comment, Its expensive and the tacos are greasy. $ 1.85 for a poor size taco plus tax 9 a rip off). If you want real tacos go to Tijuana. They're much cheaper down there. More
