I’m a huge fan of El Faralito that is down the street from this place, so a couple Friday’s ago I took some coworkers to El Faralito for lunch, but we go there too late and they were packed. So we started looking for somewhere else to eat and saw El Taco Sabroso Grill, and discovered a hidden gem in Old Town Placentia. El Faralito may have the reviews, but El Taco Sabroso is just as good at what they do when it comes to just plain ol good Mexican Food.

In my two visits I’ve got a combo plate both times, and for the price of 7.95 it’s a huge meal. The carne asada quesadilla is delicious and the taco dorado’s have just the perfect amount of crunch. Now I usually only go back to a Mexican restaurant if I their chips and salsa are good, I’m going to tell you they are some of the best. The salsa has a nice spicy kick but I love the flavor. It’s a little runny, but it coats the chips perfectly.

If you are looking for a huge meal, try the torta, the thing is bigger them most peoples head!

I’m not going to tell you either Sabroso or Faralito is better then one another, but I’m going to tell you that you need to go to them both. They compliment each other perfectly.

This place deserves to be considered when you are in the vicinity!
