Savor the Spice of Life: Taco Treat's Burritos and Homemade Hot Sauce Will Change Your Game!

When it comes to finding great eateries in California, there’s one golden rule: never judge a restaurant by its appearance! You’ll often discover that the hidden gems—those unassuming hole-in-the-wall spots—serve up the best food around. Just think about it: if a place has been thriving in the same location for decades, you can bet they’ve mastered their recipes. Take Taco Treat in Arcadia, California, for example. From the outside, it may not look like much, but trust me, it’s a food lover’s paradise. 


This family-owned taco stand has been delighting taste buds since 1969, though the tiny building itself dates back to 1953. Just a quick glance at its design and you might wonder if it used to be an ice cream shop or something similar—its charm is undeniable. Now, I have to be honest with you: while the name suggests tacos, I’ve actually never tried one from here! I know, I know, it sounds a bit wild, but hear me out. 


Taco Treat has earned its local fame for something quite different: its incredible fried burritos! And let me tell you, these aren’t just any burritos; they come in two mouthwatering varieties—bean and cheese, or beef and cheese. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with either. Each bite is like taking a delicious journey straight to Mexican Food Heaven. 

And the experience doesn’t stop there! Taco Treat sweetens the deal with their homemade hot sauce, served in little plastic cups. Just add a splash to each bite to elevate your meal to a whole new level of flavor. Trust me, whether you’re looking for comfort food or an unforgettable culinary adventure, Taco Treat is a must-visit destination in Arcadia. Grab a friend, head over, and get ready to savor every delicious morsel!

Photo and Story by Ken Hulsey My spiritual journey took me from the lush and beautiful California coast to the desert region of the state. Initially, I struggled to adjust to life there.

I found it hard to see any beauty in the vast expanse of the California desert.
