Tacos and food overall were only average. Service was pretty terrible. The waitress forgot to bring a drink order and didn’t provide any place settings or napkins for our meals. We had to remind her that we need the basics after the meal came. Waitress further forgot that she was serving our table and didn’t check up on us which required me to prompt a different server for our check. Later spoke in Spanish while we were leaving to another employee “did they pay” which further disappointed given the fact that she forgot about us when the restaurant was not busy. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant and think it’s definitely overrated with the current rating.

We came here on a Saturday in between games for our two son’s basketball tournament. It was great! We were able to sit on the patio and watch the NBA playoff game. About an hour in the live music started, which was so fun and entertaining. The margaritas were 10 out of 10. The bottomless chips were delicious! They were even able to deal with my onion allergy (I know 😒) and made me a delicious grilled chicken without onions. My husband had the enchilada and taco combo and said it was excellent, the only thing he changed on Sunday (yes it was so good we went back 😋) was adding a flour tortilla to the enchilada instead of the corn. My mom had the three taco sampler and my dad had the shrimp tacos. We came back Sunday and celebrated my belated birthday with our kids. Two of them enjoyed the 3 taco sampler with carne asada and chicken. Like my husband they opted for flour tortillas. And my other son got the enchilada and taco combo, which he loved! We can’t wait to go back again!

If you're looking for a nice sit down restaurant that serves fantastic food, look no further. Xclusive Taqueria Moderna checked many of our boxes, from the food, the atmosphere to the friendly service!
I always know of Xclusive's existence but we never actually came by. However, we made the leap to try it out on a Thursday afternoon and I can't believe we waited so long to do so. Their restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere and waiter was friendly.
I had the pleasure of trying their pork belly tacos and a carne asada burritos. The pork belly was like butter, literally melts in your mouth the moment you taste it. I had my burrito in a wet-style and it was the flavor bomb. The meat was well-cooked and was packed with beans, guac, pico. It was delicious.
My partner and I ordered a guacamole appetizer to share. It was creamy and decadent, and the homemade chips were a great addition. My partner also enjoyed his crispy tacos platter and chicken mole taco. Everything we ordered was delicious. I loved the food, the staff and the friendly environment. I look forward to coming back.

This is easily and clearly the best Mexican food in the Ladera ranch/ RSM area in 2024. Been coming here for a few months now, and This place should be packed. Seriously amazing food.
Service is always great. Limited beer selection, but who cares. Chips, beans, and dip to start are excellent.
Give them a try if you’re around.

Take out experience. We ordered the steak burrito, essentially it was a very thickly wrapped doughy burrito and a miniscule amount of steak. Too pricey at $17 for a dough burrito.
