Great attitude. I came in just for a snack of some house pinto beans with cheese. They offered me fresh salsa from the bar. It was a generous portion, under five dollars. It was delicious, absolutely perfect. And rather than act disappointed that I didn’t order something more expensive, they were very gracious.

Hits hard every time. Miles above ordinary. The staff is friendly, hospitable and the service is prompt. Always with a smile, the food makes it to your hand directly. Burritos are . Tacos . And Tortas . Love the vibe, and the avocado salsa is amazing. Habanero salsa is available if you’re feeling adventurous (are you ready?).. you will not be disappointed.

These tacos were filled to the absolute brim to the point where I couldn’t even eat them without spilling.

Carnitas was quite good. The guac a little bland. Overall i would return.

I am a huge fan of Latin food. This place was not that great with their food. The portion was great, but I had the chile Verde super burrito and it did not carry flavor at all. Was much Spicer than normal which isn’t a huge issue. But I definitely wouldn’t go back. Sorry.

Super nice and really tasty food. I brought my order back because I wanted refried beans (my mistake, not theirs, I didn’t realize they put regular beams in the burritos) and they just gave me a whole new burrito. And they were really nice about it.

My 8yo said I had to give Taqueria Santa Cruz 5 stars because the food was ready so fast and it was delicious. We had carne asada and carnitas tacos. They were loaded up with a ton of meat. Staff is awesome – very friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to go back.

Used to come often as a student before but wow these prices went over the roof. $50 for 1 burrito and a 1 plate with 2 drinks wow! Overpriced not worth it. Comida super carisima, y no vale la pena, solo para Los gabachos que Gastan !!!
