If you’re looking for real-deal Latino flavor, Tacos Los Cholos in Fullerton is different. This isn’t just taco spot hype — this is flavor that hits. First off, the surf and turf is CRAZY good. The steak is seasoned and grilled perfectly, the shrimp is cooked right (not rubbery), and together it’s that perfect mix of smoky, juicy, and fresh. Every bite tastes like it was made with intention. Now let’s talk about the salsa — the salsa is FIRE. Bold, spicy, and packed with flavor. You can tell they don’t water it down for anybody. It actually enhances the meat instead of covering it up. That’s how you know it’s authentic. The smoked Papa Loka? Probably the best. The smokiness takes it to another level. Loaded, flavorful, and not dry at all. It’s one of those items you order “just to try” and then end up thinking about later. And the drinks don’t miss either. Refreshing, well-balanced, and they pair perfectly with the spice and smoke from the food. Overall, this is hands down one of the best Latino food spots around. Real flavor. Real seasoning. Real quality. If you know good tacos, you’ll respect this place.

Heard about this place from social media with raving reviews about this place. When you first get there you enter a takeout line or a dine in line. This time we chose to dine in. For food we just got a Pollo Taco, Carne Asada Taco and Adobada Taco. I saw the other tables had guacamole, and I would say that is definitely worth to pay extra for, unfortunately we did not order it with the guacamole. The meat of the Carne Asada and Adobada were seasoned well, I enjoyed those tacos. Overall the tacos were solid.

Delicious food accompanied by a variety of fresh condiments, definitely worth trying. I highly recommend Papa Loka. Our server, Jessica, was friendly and helpful in explaining each menu item. Be aware that paying cash is cheaper than using a credit card. Also, discounts for police and firemen may apply, but not for medical professionals. I will definitely return!

Absolutely delicious food. And the staff is 100% kind, courteous, and professional. This place is managed well and I enjoy the good vibes. You will not be disappointed at Los Cholos. I ordered the Papa Loka with chicken and added guacamole. So darn delicious! And filling!! The salsa bar is excellent. My review is like everyone else’s. This place is great. And the staff…I say again…absolute perfection.

The food here speaks for itself—it’s absolutely delicious! They have a wide variety of meats, including tacos, quesadillas, and more. Everything is good, but the pork belly and ribeye are truly exceptional, along with their adobada. They’re so tender and flavorful that you’ll be left with a mouthful of goodness. Also don’t miss their horchata 👌
