Hole in the Wall Burger
Fast food restaurant
👍👍 This place is literally it's name and it puts the fast food joints to shame. I'm saying. I'm glad I noticed this spot and gave it a shot. I'll end up going here a lot. The burger is nuanced and might not be appreciated as much if you can't taste the difference of fresh never frozen, and chuck patty...

Lupe's Mexican Eatery
Restaurant
👍 Went to visit Lupe's on a whim to try their burritos and tacos. As it is Lent season, seafood tacos and burritos were the choices of the visit. Ordered the shrimp burrito and it was pretty hefty on weight and had a nice soft chewy mouth feel as soon as I bit into it. It was fairly juicy, savory and...

😠 Cheap quality ingredients = tasteless tacos. It was mostly cartilage and not asada. Not to be harsh but these were the worse tacos I’ve ever had. After couple of bites I decided not to eat them. I am not sure how they prepare and warm up the meat but when I went up to the register to ask for a to go...

El Pollo Norteño Lake Forest

👍👍 I love this place! Food is great and very reasonable pricing. Walked in and you can see the chicken sizzling on an open grill. I couldn’t resist and ordered the 3 piece chicken plate that comes with tortilla, salsa and a few sides (rice and beans). The food is fresh, tasty, full of flavor, amazing!...
