Please don’t waste your money on the tres leches cake or choco flan. Not even close to being authentic.. not moist or pillowy. Just outrageously sweet and dense. Food is fire though!

My burrito came out cold as ice. I was in a time crunch, so I didn't have time to wait. I ate what I could and left. For what is worth, the burrito tasted OK, might have been better if it was hot. Staff was OK, and the atmosphere was not inviting for a second try. I went during lunchtime at 1 p.m., and the restaurant was not busy. However, the burrito took at least 10 minutes to come out and cold at that.

I didn't even know it was possible to mess up a burrito this much. The outside foil was covered in sour cream and some grease. But the burrito itself is what made me want to never go back again. Literally they folded the tortilla twice, so a third of my burrito was just tortilla, and they just folded it in half. They didn't even try to close it, so the moment I attempt to hold it, the very few ingredients it has inside just spills out. This is a taco at this point, with no actual ingredients. The burrito was also super messy, and it was just covered in other random ingredients, so the ingredients it should have had inside was all on the outside, but the stuff outside seems to be from another item, cause there was random ingredients I didn't even order in my burrito. Whoever made it just said I don't care I got paid so whatever. Don't order from here if you want a messy experience with no care in making their food.

For some reason, this branch of Xalos is so mediocre compared to the others. Both the food and service are bland and underwhelming. This location has forgotten the consome for my birria tacos twice now and does not include salsa or even ask if you want some like the others always do. Xalos is great, just go to a different location IMO.

The food is incredible. Which is what matters the most. The place itself is a little dark, and the food can take a little while to get out to you. But it's worth it. If you haven't had Birria Tacos before, you need to get some, and Xalos is a great place for em. It would be hard to do better without visiting to your tio.

I’ve had Xalos a few times, and this location wasn’t my favorite. The service was a little less friendly and helpful, and they took a long time to get us our food. Probably 20-30 minutes for two plates. BUT, I have to say the food is the best Mexican you’ll find in Anchorage at least. Xalos does it right. The birria tacos are seriously good, especially with the dipping sauce. I got a fajita burrito which was tasty, but had some cold ingredients. It was still delicious though. And the strawberry horchata is a MUST. So good. Overall a great place. Could improve a few things, but they make some great food my friends.

Food was acceptable but not as good as in the past. Rice & beans on the side was like a child's serving, not in proportion to the main course. Not really friendly taking your order, it was like: "Just give me your money and step" Didn't seem to care if we were there or not. I'm neutral on recommending this place until they bring it up a notch or two.........

Food was typical. Nothing special but was up to expectations. Service was bare bones minimum not very many words or questions and when I got my order the guy set it on the counter and just walked away. I wasn't sure if that was all of it or not so left me guessing till I got in my car to untie the bag and look. It was all there except their was no silverware salsa or sourcream. Didn't know they have a separate bat for those things but I didn't have a chance to ask either. atmosphere was red carpet entertainment. Seen Micheal Jackson Jay Leno a giant margaritas with huge... cherries.. and then I woke up and realized I was the only one there. But xudos to the artist who did the paintings on the walls. Awesome artwork.

I was expecting a full restaurant but this was more like sit down fast food similar to Chipotle. You line up to order then sit and they bring you ur dish. The food is way more authentic than Chipotle and the soft tacos were nicely sized and very well done. The birria meat is certainly the star of the show here. Everything was clean, staff were friendly. Def worth coming back. No alcoholic drinks. But horchata!

Got a carnitas plate. Very tasty. Taking off a star because there was some residual pieces of shredded cheese in the pico / salad on the side.

However, the current food was disgusting, the staff was rude, and the price outrageous. I ordered a flan dessert and it was $8.50 and was absolutely horrible.
