"I 've been a Pasadena local for 3 years... But this small taco/Mexican food joint has become my personal favorite! Why is that? You might ask? It 's because I 've had everything on their menu, and I 've truly liked almost every dish. The only thing I don 't like is their Menudo. It needs attention to the preparation... It needs a style and proper seasoning. I recommend every other item from the menu. The only 2 official complaints that I have is the rudeness of the midnight cashier, and that they stopped serving tamales. Now, I know there 's better restaurants, but based on the yummy food and great prices! This little joint gets my vote for 'One of the better places to eat in Pasadena '. The best part is... It 's open 24 hours a day!!! Viva Tacos La Estrella! Order, sit, relax and enjoy! Thank you"
