Efren's Deli - Mexican restaurant in Oceano - 1720 Beach St, USA

Food was very good but a couple of things could be improved. Ordered posole and got two very small pieces of meat with a ton of hominy and a little bit of soup. Flavor was good just would have wanted more meat and soup. Rice was ok, meat was super tasty in the tacos.

The woman there was incredibly rude. They gave me the wrong kind of tacos. She argued with me about what I had ordered. I wanted pastor tacos and they gave me chicken. I asked them to fix it and instead of remaking the tacos, she brought out a dirty plate with some cold pastor meat on it and a dirty fork buried in the middle. She proceeded to slide the plate in front of me and then walked away to make a phone call on her cell phone. She never checked back in and refused to acknowledge us for the rest of the time we were there. I have never met somebody so rude in the service industry. This is the type of service you can expect.

Overall great place to sit down and casually dine or take to go. Food and drinks are well made to order, very fresh and authentic flavors. Service is friendly.

I ordered the Chile relleno, my friend had the same but with meat. She liked hers, I thought mine was OK and it seemed like it was premade and reheated as the batter was soggy and warm not hot if it was just out of the fryer. Music was too loud to have a decent conversation. Seems like it’s a local hangout - not for me.

Showed up after closing time and still got to order. My wife has Lived here 16 years and finally found a restaurant that reminded her of home. Authentic food delicious

We get food to go, always good, but the burritos always different. If you want consistency, go to McDonalds. But the food to Efram's never disappoints.

So mf gas. Been coming here for over a decade.

We got menudo. Asked for hominy and got maybe a tablespoon of it.. menudo was very stinky like it wasn't cleaned right before cooking and was not cooked well 😕. Taquitos were super fried with dried hard chicken inside.
