I should start off that my first encounter with Tacos El Franc was my wife making a spontaneous stop and doing takeout. We live sorta close but even then, food had cooled a bit and our initial thoughts were "it's just okay". So when my friends and I decided for a little high school reunion and several through out TEF I was a bit apprehensive. However, one of my buds lived in TJ so if anyone of our gang knew what they were talking about it was him. Eating in did not disappoint. Despite having 7 of us on a Saturday night we... read more

ITacos El Franc is a great spot if you go during non-peak hours--it's easy to get a table and the service is fast. The carne asada is delicious, and the suadero tacos are amazing. I also like their system where they bring the food straight to your table quickly. The only downside is they charge extra for onions and jalapeños, which I feel should be included, especially considering the tacos are already a bit pricey. Still, the overall experience is great, and it's a place I'd go back to every so often for good quality tacos.

Great place to grub. Prices are what it is. Taste is great. I will be back. Maybe the TJ location to see if the original and this US location taste the same.

Prepare to get your hands dirty at this buzzing restaurant! You will need plenty of napkins after holding these tacos which come loaded with toppings. The meat and salsa flavors were rich but almost bordering on overbearing. Given the restaurant's hot ratings, the tacos met my expectations but I still prefer Tacos El Gordo's balance. To my surprise, and different than other taco shops, you're welcomed by a host and seated at a table with a waiter or waitress assisting you. This was a pleasant experience compared to standin... read more

This weekend, we finally ventured to the new location in Plaza Bonita. We've always been loyal supporters of the Tijuana location, so we were curious to see how the new place compared. The food was delicious, but there were some noticeable differences from the original Tijuana location. As expected, the tacos were more expensive. However, the base flavor of the food was still there, and we enjoyed the tacos just as much as we did in Tijuana. One of the differences we noticed was in the sauce. The Adobada tacos had a differ... read more

* Spacious seating indoors and outdoors * Plenty of parking * Great ambiance * Delicious tacos I'll definitely come back for the tacos de carne asada -- they were my favorite, especially the tostada de carne asada! The homemade corn tortillas (de maíz) were bomb, and the salsa had great flavor. The guacamole was fresh and tasty. The tacos de adobada were okay, and the suadero was also good. Service overall was good -- our server was great once they came by, though we did wait a little bit to be checked on after being seate... read more
