I have to admit - I didn’t go in with high expectations, but this place is solid.

Got 10 wings buffalo. Sauce is exactly how I like my buffalo. Hot, not sweet or any other weird ingredients added in. Wings were very crispy on the outside and they were huge.

Quesadilla with gyro beef. Had lots of melty white cheese. Comes with a homemade pico. Very good.

Classic tacos (ground beef crunchy) with chips and salsa. The salsa is awesome if you like fresh flavored salsa. Doesn’t taste like it’s the kind they cook first, and I dug it.

They also do beer for $2.50 (domestic) or $3 (import) during happy hour and they have Jucifer on the wall so that’s a great deal.

Definitely will be back.

I went once. I had the steak burrito and it was indeed delicious. I found the serving size compared to the cost was lacking.

Yeah the wings were $14.95 for 10 which is on the high side.

In contrast, the taco combo was 2 tacos + chips and salsa + drink for $8.95 which isn’t bad.

I had the greek burrito. I didn't like the lettuce they used and the amount of meat they put in there was small. The meat was very tasty though.

Burrito size for $9 was terrible.

Sopapilla bites are just beignets pretty much.

Will try other stuff though.

The tacos were really small when I went. I got small wings too.

The food was really good so I'll be back, but they should probably give you more bang for your buck.

yep. My burrito was about 5-6" in length with about a 3" diameter. Had a bunch of lettuce in it too.

Ah. Our tacos weren’t small, but they were crunch which I imagine is standard size. The wings were massive.

Wings are so difficult to judge size on unless it’s a pattern. I’ve had laughably small ones and really large ones from the same restaurant on different visits. I guess it’s a supplier thing?

Wings are ridiculously expensive when you think about it. Best bet is to pick a place that does them for half off or $0.50 on a certain night each week.

Uno Dos Taco ain’t putting out Blue Oak wings. I have no problem paying for what I’m getting at Blue Oak. I’m not paying over $30 with tax for someone to dump some frozen wings in a fryer, though.
