TACOS AL VAPOR “GIL”

Great place for a quick stop before closing the border. Service is friendly and efficient. Right now, due to COVID, there’s only take out available. The place sells-out early, so don’t arrive late.

Really good taco de vapor. hard to find these types of tacos 🌮

Delicious 😋

Best tacos al vapor you will find in Tijuana

Good flavor,clean and enough for the price. Quick service,friendly with a long line they made it flawless!! Not enough sitting since it's a small corner spot but can go to your vehicle and enjoy them there. AAA+++ for trust the customer by eating first and pay later ,mind you that you are on the street and one can walk away but not the case because they make you feel trust worthy. A must place to stop !!!

Clean 🧼 environment, nice waitress just the 2 guys are to much stressed and they pressure to do excellent work. 5 stars

My husband and I got there around 10am. Only place I found that does Mexico DF vapor tacos. They ran out of potatoes and the beans. Only had Chicharrón and beef. Which I would’ve thought would be opposite. Usually protein sells out faster than the other options in restaurants. But not here. So they must be amazing. But either way both were delicious. Definitely going back early to hopefully be one of the lucky ones to try the other options. The whole staff were super friendly and very attentive. Making sure you always had a taco on your plate. Their kitchen was very clean, the cooks were always wiping their food station. Making sure everything was clean and clearing out plates quickly. Very efficient. Highly recommend. Gained a forever customer.

These tacos are like no others it's a must try for the flavor the quickness and hospitality is outstanding will return soon Provecho

We came here literally right after eating at a spot down the street after seeing how long the line was. Had to see what the hype was all about. And WOW so glad we checked it out!! The tacos were awesome, line moved quickly, and lots of sides/salsas to add to the tacos. They have a great system working. They do close early so make sure to check their working hours. Try this place!!

Increíble! Súper ricos y excelente servicio! Lo recomiendo, los tacos están buenísimos!

Went to Tacos a Vapor Gil the other day and I was very impressed with the quality of the food and service. I highly recommend this place if ever in the Otay Mesa area in the Mexico side. Excellent

The best Al Vapor tacos ever! They have beans, potato, beef and chicharrón. I got chicharrón and beef. Definitely try them out you won't regret it.

I've been coming to this place for SOOO LONG! I think it's been open since 2007 or 2008 and those are my go to Tacos al Vapor! my favorites are the Chicharron and the Potato ones, love them I always get 4 or 5 tacos lol their so soft and I like them greasy, it's perfection. If you ever around this area you should visit, if your from out of town put it in your bucket list cause you need to try them out. Only thing is because Tacos al Vapor are usually like a breakfast/brunch type a thing they run out of tacos very early, so I suggest for you to be there around 10 am to 12 pm because they run out of them quickly during the weekday. On the weekends they only open on Saturdays but you have to be early there because they run out of tacos around 10 or 11 am! Their so damn good y'all! Go ahead and get your life! lol Provecho!!!!

What I had: - Tacos de papa ($0.75 each for all taco types) - Tacos de frijol - Tacos de res How it tasted: - Excellent. This was my first time having them, and I absolutely loved them. I can't believe I had not visited Tijuana sooner. Glad to have gone! Why did I give it a five? - I wasn't all that hungry, yet these tacos were fairly priced and made me want more. In fact, I had 5-6 tacos and got stuffed. They're much bigger than the typical tacos in the U.S. Verdict? - Effin' go at least once. However, those who do not know Spanish should brush up on it or bring someone who can order for them. Additionally, bring cash.

Excellent Tacos al vapor. This place gets packed but they serve fast and everyone is done eating fast too so the turn around is quick. A few stools outside but Tacos are meant to eat standing up so there's plenty space for that! Make sure you check this spot early because by noon they sell out and close shop. I went around 9 am and all stools were full and people were standing eating. Now for the food review these are legit and delicious, Tacos a Vapor are some of my fave, the tortilla is dipped in some kind of chili oil but it's not spicy so it soft and flavorful, they keep them in these big pots to keep them warm and soft, the filling options are potato, beans, chicharrón or beef, they add onions lettuce and a mild tomato sauce salsa. The size of the taco is pretty good not too small and they double up the tortilla so they're pretty filling. Highly recommend

Great Tacos al Vapor, but there is a lot of issues finding parking also is Chaotic the way you have to fight to be heard and place your order. If you get there after nine to ten am you might only find 1 or 2 different options on your tacos because they sale a lot. Price is really good but there is not many choices on drinks.

Simply the best Tacos a Vapor in Tijuana and one of the very best in all Mexico... I've been all around the country and tacos are my favorite food so... there's not much more to say. CHICHARRON, CARNE, FRIJOL, PAPA.. Just delicious!!!

Tijuana street food legend. Come and taste before all the rest of us foodies "discover" it. As simple as it gets, four types of tacos, aguas frescas, and soft drinks: everything costs the same. Seating is 10 stools arranged around a corner window where Gil does his taco magic! Beef, Pork, Potato, and Beans. Try one of each and I dare you not to return a second time. But come early, once the day's taco batch is gone, it's gone!

Went here super hot food served with love and compassion compared to US tacos these kill them 10000% super cheap and affordable for a good home cooked meal They are not scared to feed you a big portion and I live for a great taco so this is 5 stars for me !!!

I was very surprised with the tacos and service here. The service was fast, with a smile, and clean. The Tacos, incredibly moist and properly seasoned and delicious meat and not too greasy. The price is just right, especially if your on the go and need something quick and inexpensive. Give it a try you will enjoy it.
