How the great have fallen. I've been coming to this Berto's for 16 years, for many of those years it was the only "Berto's" I would order from. The food was phenomenal, their hot sauce was spicy and would gove you the sweats, their service wasn't great but no one expects that when they're stumbling in drunk "af" at 2AM with a number of other drunks.
However, about 4 years ago everything changes, I can only assume that their original cook left or they got a new grill because everything tastes different now. The tacos which used to be the best greasy tacos in town now taste like they've been boiled almost. The meat lacks almost any flavor and is even a different color than their old deep brown. The hot sauce tastes watered down and even their green sauce lacks any flavor.
Their carne asada used to be something I would crave all week, or eat every day happily for a week, now its something I won't even bother with. Their carne fries which uses to be the perfect go to after a heavy night of drinking, are limp and soggy.
Oh Eriberto's...how I miss the golden days, and the angry older woman who'd mess up my order but still made me fall in love with each bite (so long as it wasn't with guacamole).
