What in the name of the TORTILLA!!!!?? This place is amazing. Hidden gem and highly rec. We ordered: Chips and salsa Kids carne asada tacos Carne asada burrito Fish burrito Everything was delicious and fresh! My favorite was the kids carne asada taco - they literally melted in my mouth. The carne asada burrito and fish burrito also delicious. The restaurant staff was very nice and attentive. The place itself - very clean. And I have to give a shoutout the greatest photo of all time in the girls bathroom from White Chicks! 10/10!

The chef here is great, he is from Mexico City and there is a wide variety of region specific items, like cochinita pibil. This place is definitely a hidden gem in a quiet area. We tried the street tacos and all of the à la carte tacos, they were so delicious… especially the condesa taco and the del huerto taco. The atmosphere is chill and service is great. Would definitely come back and recommend this place to anyone in the area.

This place is OPEN! I was so sad to see Capriotti's sandwhich shop go. However, when I saw there would be a new Mexican restraunt in the area to try out I was very excited! My coworker and I tried the breakfast burrito and the carnitas street tacos beans and rice. Everything is made to order. The flavors are amazing, the quality is beyond delicious. The flavors of the salsa are so mouth watering. They make the salsas with all fresh ingredients. While talking to the very sweet man at the front desk about the different sauces they make/use he would bring me a sample just so I could taste the flavors. Also, found out they have Taco Tuesdays starting at 4p.m. We will be going back and trying everything on the menu one day at a time!!!

Great addition to the neighborhood. The food presentation and taste was excellent. Sam greeted us at the counter answering all our questions and pointed out select dishes based on our preferences. The deserts were sooo good.

Just ate at A La Brava and everything was absolutely remarkable. I had the Tres Leches French toast and the divorced eggs, which were layered with two different sauces and triple-layered tortillas—I loved that detail. We also tried the individual tacos, which were so unique, filled with a mix of shrimp, garlic, meat, and crispy fried cheese—so, so good. Every dish hit the mark. I honestly can’t believe this place is so underrated in Aliso Viejo. Definitely coming back soon!
