Tried to place order in person and they couldn't understand me when I asked basic questions. Called to place an order hoping to speak with someone else and asked what a specific burrito comes with and they just said the same thing, "ummm..." And hung up. Not even sure if the food is decent because the staff was unable to field basic questions.

The food is really good. I ordered a fish taco and an al pastor taco. They were exquisite, flavorful and generous in size. The chips and salsa appetizer was a little bland, but the table hot sauce is tasty and if you ask, they will bring a little hotter sauce from the kitchen that is much more exciting and a touch more spice. Service was okay but it was the meal that really sparkled.

The picture below was the meat from my steak quesadilla. Obviously it slightly resembles dog food. Only reason I pulled it out is because I kept biting into hard grisly pieces which you know is enough to kind of ruin the meal. It wasn’t the absolute worst but it isn’t somewhere I would order from again or recommend. I will say the chips were good. This was a delivery so unfortunately I couldn’t just ask for something else like chicken. Based on the reviews I had high hopes but was pretty disappointed with the quality. Maybe it was an off day for them but it was off enough to make me avoid them in the future.

Great food and fairly priced!!!! Get it all the time. It's hard to choose what to get because everything I had I like.

I can confirm the salsa is indeed basically red water, and who puts a stew into a Styrofoam sandwich box? Everything tipped, all of the chips ruined, literally couldn't eat anything but the rice. Maybe it's good in the restaurant but I don't recommend take out.

Excellent place. Every once in a while the food can come out a bit soggy/greasy, but that has been the exception and not the rule. Tortas are great.

Hands down, the best Mexican restaurant in the city! The al pastor and campechanos tacos are so delicious. Try a Huarache with campechanos if you haven't, an al pastor taco, and get a chile relleno on the side ;) You'll be very happy...and very full.The food would be reason enough to check this place out out, but the people who run it are just as incredible. If you haven't gone yet, do yourself a favor and check them out. Lotsa love to these guys ?

Cheap and filling food at very reasonable prices! The quality isn't as high as some other local Mexican restaurants, but it's a great deal. I ordered the teas leches, churros, bean with cheese burrito, and shredded beef burrito.The portions are excellent for the burritos! They are much heavier than they look and they are filled to the brim. The meat in the shredded beef burrito was pretty flavorful and didn't have too much fat. It came with a good amount of different vegetables inside as well. There were onions, tomatoes, peppers, and more for no extra charge. There is also a lot rice in the burrito and surprisingly, there is also cheese in the burrito. The rice was creamy and delicious! The tortilla is on the thicker side, though.The bean and cheese burrito was pretty good, too. The beans tasted earthy, but creamy as well. Plenty of cheese inside. My order came with a feta-like white cheese called cojita in a small container (it was for the meat burrito, but I used it for both). Large portion of spicy tomatoey sauce.Both desserts were fine. I wasn't blown away, but they were both cheap and tasty. Tres leches came with a strawberry and it was cream. There was also whipped cream on top. Churros are large. There's not a lot of sauce on them, though, but the texture is on point.Overall, I was more than satisfied with this visit. Awesome portions and prices! Flavor is there, too. I'd recommend if you want a cheap and filling Tex-Mex dinner.

Los Cabos is probably my favorite Mexican restaurant in Pittsburgh that I’ve tried. The burritos are outstanding. I’ve tried nearly 10 and every single one was great. Additionally, I think this might be the only place in the city that provides free chips and salsa if you dine in.
