In Desert Hot Springs this is one of many Taquerias el Güero, I do have to mention the food never fails unless like many times waitresses are clueless on what they’re doing. Food overall is well prepared as well as taste and presentation. I’ve seen that the waitresses lack everything, empathy, service, common sense, be advised English might not be spoken either. If you go here just take it to go I wouldn’t suggest getting familiar with the service here(because there is none) my suggestion is eat it at home. Not clean, to my knowledge and the few times I’ve visited. I would like to try other Taquerias el güero I’m sure there’s a change in at least appearances or the same service. It is not cheap/FOOD IS NOT AFFORDABLE HERE. Have that in mind.

We were worried about finding a place to eat at 9:30 p.m., but we came across this restaurant, and the food was really good. A great find!

Food was not good at all rice was hard and old beans were watery and the shrimp was grey and tough also the salsa was flavorless. They also charge for everything you get chip and salsa was 4 bucks a fryed chili was 1.50 Nothing was good here the food the price and also also the server. Please consider coming here to save yourself from the headache and robbery how was it 65$ for 2 people that both got 20$ plates????

When I first walked in it felt like the air conditioner was not working. I order a augua de piña drink which was refreshing . I also ordered a carne asada torta and tasted good considering the bread was burnt. I would consider going back and giving the restaurant another try.
