If you wanna talk about hustle and great customer service, lets talk about Tacompadre. Jermaine, the owner, is a phenomenal worker who takes pride in his job and the community. He takes the time going over the menu with you and helping out newcomers feel welcome. Although it is difficult to find at first, the hospitality and cleanliness brings you in to a zone of comfort. Let me say that again CLEANLINESS!!! The room... View all feedback.
What Jaime p doesn't like about Tacompadre:
Disappointed with this place despite having a bunch of good reviews. Atmosphere was ok service was ok. However the food was not great at all. On top of that it was pretty expensive i think we spent like $86 in total. Group of 5 came in to get food and try out a new spot. Food looked good on the menu and online but once we got our orders it wasn't looking good. Beans looks dry and grayish in color. Rice looked dry as... View all feedback.
Comfy place, amazing food, and kind staff… the lady who took our order was so helpful and sweet, thank you so much! We had pastor and birria tacos and just wish this place existed back home — definitely try it out!
No idea why place is rated so high. If you want Midwest style Mexican in Santa Ana go here. You will be transported to a landlocked state. Tacos were bland and look nothing like their reference photos. Got two taco plates and the fries. Everything was very watery and unseasoned. Beans had no flavor and rice was super salty, no flavor. We got the birria, sweet pulled pork, carne asada, fried brisket. All of it was under seasoned and disappointing. They also messed up our taco order, but we couldn’t tell which was supposed to be which because flavors were so not distinctive and bland. Two star because they do have a salsa bar with good pickle pineapple and mole salsa. Fries were soggy and watery tasting from bad beans and gross nacho cheese. Bad ratio of fries and meat. You can get better elsewhere.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tacompadre in Santa Ana, and I can't stop thinking about the delicious tacos and nacho fries. This hidden gem is a true delight for anyone seeking a genuine taste of Mexican street food. The star of the show was undeniably the tacos. Bursting with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients, they definitely reminded me of delicious tacos from Mexico City. From the succulent carne asada to the flavorful al pastor, each taco was a testament to Tacompadre's commitment to authenticity. The nacho fries were a delightful surprise and a perfect accompaniment to the tacos. I chose pastor as my meat of choice and they were they were topped with cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. The combination of textures and flavors was a party in my mouth, leaving me craving more. What sets Tacompadre apart is not just the exceptional food but also the warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive dining experience. The restaurant's dedication to authenticity shines through in every aspect, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking genuine Mexico City street food in Santa Ana. Tacompadre has earned its spot as one of my go-to place for fresh and great tasting tacos in Santa Ana . If you're a taco enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates delicious, well-crafted food, do yourself a favor and pay a visit. Your taste buds will thank you!
The chef is very handsome, and the server has a good sens of humor!
We ordered two plates: Quesabirria and Alambre al Pastor. Both plates were delicious and highly recommended!!!!!! We will be coming back soon!
