Tom's Tacos-Closed
Tom's Tacos
3024 W Ball Rd
Anaheim, CA 92804
(714) 952-1600
Back in the 1980's, the World Famous, Tito's Tacos moved to the Orange Curtain. By the late 80's they sold the recipe and restaurant to somebody named Tom. Tom sold the restaurant to the current owner.
Tom's is about a mile or so south of Knott's Berry Farm at the corner of Beach and Ball Road.
The difference between Tito's and Tom's, is that Tom's serves chicken tacos and closes much earlier than Tito's. Tom's Tacos hours are 11am-9pm, with last orders taken at about 8:30pm.
I ordered the beef taco with cheeese, chicken taco with cheese and a beef and bean burrito for $6.40. The chips and salsa are complimentary. The tacos are fried and the shell is really crunchy. They charge extra for cheese, $1.35 for a taco, $1.70 for a taco with cheese. Get the tacos with cheese!!!
I like the salsa but the chips are very thick and are hard to chew.
This is very good food at cheap prices.
