The Al pastor torta is like heaven in your mouth. Then again, it’s hard to go wrong with any of the food here. My partner swears by the chicken quesadilla. My only complaint is their cash-only policy. It costs them one star off (four instead of five) and one business. I typically don’t carry cash, so a lack of card-payment options means I have to make a special trip for cash and often end up going somewhere else. P

Great Tortas. Excellent & Fast service. Highly recommended. Just a note it’s cash only.

So not worth the money, we order 2 tortas (cubana & pacifica) & 2 aguas which came out to $40?????? Not sure how, no rceipt was provided. All in all, quality of the food is not worth $40, fries were cold & burnt, water taste like sugar not handmade at all and tortas we could've easily made at home, nothing special for it to cost $13. Just go to Tortas Paquimé instead, they are more affordable and better quality!

I wish I could give this place a 5️⃣ Star rating, but I feel that I can honestly only give it a mere compromising [3️⃣] ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ rating—and it’s for two reasons: 1️⃣.) the first, is that on the menu which is a chalkboard, all of the items are written only in Spanish. So when one is unilingual like me—I am having to constantly ask what sort of meat that I want, since for whatever reason they will not also write the English equivalencies to them. I have to ask several times what it is in English—they have enough room to write the translation, with chalk. 2️⃣.) and this is far more aggravating—they prefer cash only. There’s even recently, a sign in front of the register that says “cash only.” I have had to explain when they ask for cash, that I don’t carry cash on me, as a rule (-I feel that I shouldn’t have to explain to begin with, for that matter-). Finally, I inquired as to their reservations due to this, and they were rather vague. [-Note: one example that they claimed was to avoid the service charge that the customer pays: first of all, there usually is a service charge for the customers who pay via debit card ? {why should that be a concern to them?}-] In this day in age, I shouldn’t have to be “suggested to,” as opposed to how I pay—that’s my own prerogative.: I am always good about tipping, on top of this. If it weren’t for these two issues, I would otherwise be more than happy to give the a top five star rating.I will say that the service is good, the food is wonderful, they are a family business which I think is so good. The establishment itself is very clean. They are always very respectful and courteous. Regrettably, I would I could give them a better rating.

This place served our group of 10 with all smiles and delicious food. The huge $5 cup of horchata was a real treat!

My niece took me to TEG. The staff are very polite and The food is great, especially the carne asada burrito! My wife loved the Alhambra tacos. I highly recommend this place!

Super amazing tortas, I little smaller than most places that I have been too but it's plenty to fill you up comes with fries, mom and pop joint super nice and very fast.

Ordered a torta de milanesa for me. Wife ordered a carne asada burrito. Kids had a quesadilla and ham torta split between them. That torta de milanesa hit a spot i was missing since infancy!! Oh I forgot I also ordered a large horchata! It was a need to be!

This is the best place hands down in all of the valley for Tortas. The owners are awesome and treat you like family. Love this place.
