Best KPortal Reviews
Saw this place on social media and I had to try the Puffy Tacos. I drove up from San Diego and only ordered 2 tacos. I ordered a carne asada taco and ground beef taco. I really like the consistency of the shell, it was like a chalupa texture and tasted like Indian Fry bread. I've been looking for something like that for quite a while and that was really the closest place from San Diego. The total price was around $7, we also ate the tacos on the tables outside.
I love the mini Mexican restaurant that's served with burritos and soft puffy tacos. That's what this company is known for with Puffy Tacos here on Leffingwell Rd. It's a happy place for Mexico lovers!
In the area for the week (Thanksgiving week) and if you know Whittier then, you know the city offers really great Mexican food. While browsing online, I stumbled upon Arturo’s. It immediately brought me back to San Antonio, Texas where puffy tacos originated, OOoooo Tex-Mex! I fell in love with the original Rays Drive Inn and have been wanting to recreate these… meh just the thought of how much oil I would have to waste.. Thankfully Arturos came in clutch! Arrived just before the noon rush, the restaurant offers outdoor and indoor dinning. When you arrive the menu is there clear as day, decide what you want, order from the window (CASH ONLY), wait for your ticket to be called.
Got the (All puffy shell)
Carne Asada – 4/5 I love carne asada in general but this one lacked flavor and was a bit chewy
Guisada – 5/5 pork stew, delicious!
Chicken – 5/5 shredded, flavorful, would order again in a heart beat
Original – 5/5 picadillo well-seasoned
Fries – 5/5 Yes, came out hot and crispy
I planned on ordering side of green salsa but changed my mind last min, the taco had everything in it, cheese, lettuce, salsa.
Give them a try! Great Service! Outdoor seating! Dog friendly!
Wanted to try for over a year finally made the 30 minute street drive from Anaheim Hills. No easy way to get here. Got my tacos to go due to the wife agreeing to drive with me even though she was not hungry, so my food was not as good as if I was there eating it fresh and hot. So I will make a second run for a better review. Overall I liked the puffy taco and the taquitos. I like the cheddar cheese all over everything. The salsa was ok not my favorite.
Five stars all around.
Combination burrito was HUGE and delicious. It's cheaper eating here then it is at McDonald's. You get your money's worth.
Service was fast. I'm definitely going here again.
First time. Had the 2 puffy Taco plate with traditional ground beef.
Beens we’re good, chips served complimentary.
This place is a gem of a find. Went here on a friend's recommendation and I'm so glad we did! These tacos were amazing, the quesadillas and burritos are all so good. Cash only but totally worth it. I wish I had one where I lived! I'd definitely come back here! Service was fast too.
Grubby tacos and Taquitos, I’d skip on the beans and rice next time and just do the tacos :)
