Taqueria Cancun

Tacos were so mid, I had the al pastor(big chunks and pieces were too chewy), carnitas (too crispy), however, taco cancun was super yummy. My partner got the birria tacos, and a crispy taco and I also tried that. The horchata was good but had a weird taste at the end. Oh and their equites were all cold. Yes, cold esquites.

I live in SC and every time I visit family in Maryland I make it a point to stop by this restaurant and get a California Burrito. I lived in California and this is by far the most authentic Burrito I've ever had outside of there. The staff is all great ans friendly and the food is made fast

I’ve been here a million times and it never fails. Definitely a staple for me in the DMV. Their California burritos are amazing and very filling! As for their tacos: the shrimp, al pastor and chorizo are all sooo delicious! The staff are all very friendly and efficient. The space is a bit small/limited seating so when it’s busy, you may not find a space to sit but overall 5/5!

I've been wanting to give this place a try for a while now, and I can say. The wait was well worth it. The Food: I went with the Asada California Burrito for this visit. After the first bite, I knew this was going to be good. The steak was cooked nicely, flavorful and was tender. The other toppings they loaded into the burrito worked very well together, making it such a flavorful and delicious burrito. They pack it as well, so you won't be disappointed about the size. And, for the price, it wasn't too bad. $12 for authentic food, which tastes better can't be beat. The Service: Service was great. Walked in and was greeted. Took me a bit to browse the menu, but service was fast. The Atmosphere: The restaurant is a little small. So not a lot of tables to sit at. I noticed a lot of people ordering the food more to-go, but I had to have mine right there to just keep it fresh. Overall, a 5/5. Absolutely loved the food here. No complaints at all. I'll definitely be coming back again!

A hidden gem. Finally found a spot that makes a Cali burrito reminiscent of the ones I had in San Diego. Their chicken quesadilla and tacos are also great, reasonably priced and packed with flavor. Highly recommended.

LOVE THIS PLACE. Get the burrito with papas Fritas. It’s phenomenal

Taqueria Cancun has a strong reputation for its delicious Mexican food, and I was excited to give it a try. I ordered tacos, which tasted great and were flavorful. However, I found the pricing quite steep — $30 for six tacos felt excessive. While the food quality was good, the high cost might make me think twice before returning. If you’re okay with premium prices, it’s worth trying for the taste.

Perhaps the best taco joint I have been to in years, and not just in the DMV, but anywhere! Simple ingredients that elevate the taco - each bite is a blast of flavor. Every meal here has been a delight. Look past the decor and just savor the food.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while since they had the California burrito. I'm so glad I did because this place is great. The burrito was super filled and for a pretty reasonable price. It's a large enough size to share. This place can get busy but they're still pretty efficient with orders. Their tamarindo drink was the best I've had. It had a good amount of flavor and didn't taste watered down like other places.

Love this place! I was craving a quesadilla n this place popped up. The store was full of customers and to me that's a sign the food gotta be good and it was. I got the quesadilla de birria, and the smell was amazing. The quesadilla was awesome and came with so many salsas. 10/10 I would recommend this place!

Hands down one of the best asada California burritos in the area and might go as far as saying that the burrito is the best I've had in the dmv area. Everything inside is just perfection, enjoyed it so much forgot to take a picture. Lengua and al pastor tacos were also delicious and would 100% order again

I'm always on the hunt for a good burrito with French fries, so when I came across Taqueria Cancun, I had to try their California Burrito. It comes in a flour tortilla with cheese, French fries, pico de gallo, avocado, and chipotle mayonnaise -- delicious with a nice little kick of spice. We also ordered the birria quesadilla, esquites, and a tostada. Everything tasted good, but overall it felt like something was missing flavor-wise. Still, I love trying new places, and I'm happy to have found another burrito spot to add to my list.

Best tacos in falls church. We've been searching for a good place and this fits the bill perfectly. It's clearly very popular and was busy but service was quick. We will be back.

Phenomenal restaurant service is good! There's pretty limited seating inside and the parking lot is kinda crowded, but this restaurant is so worth it. We got the birria tacos (fantastic no notes), California burrito with carne (amazing and very filling), and the nachos con carne (so delicious I just wish it had more pickled jalapeños). They have a pretty big menu, there's definitely something for everyone!

I had heard about the place, and it seemed hyped up so that is why I was disappointed. The wait was not long for a California burrito. The burrito itself I thought was smaller than I expected and also the fries inside were so dry and hard. The burrito itself was not that flavorful but the sauce did help adding on. I did not really like the place, so I probably will not go back despite the staff being super nice.

Muy buen servicio y la calidad de la comida 10/10 amo este lugar los sabores te hacen regresar muchas veces mas

+ great simple tacos + the California burrito is a must-have. It was my request after I gave birth. LOL! - it's hot as crap in there in the summertime - small indoor dining area, so take your food to go - parking isn't great - our food took a while to come out the last time we went and we watched them give a lady the wrong order, then take it back after she had already opened the box. I hope they didn't serve that food to someone else. - sauce bottles on the table are sticky (dirty) on the outside They really get a good rating solely for the taste of the food, otherwise the service and atmosphere are nothing special at all.

Staff was nice, but food leaves much to be desired for, got Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Birria tacos and Tostada de Ceviche. Tostadas were good. All tacos were extremely bland no flavor, meat was hard to chew, tortillas dry, the sauce had no flavor so it did not help. Limes had zero juice. Waste of $60.00. Could not finish. Overall disappointing.

I had never had a California burrito before and heard this was the best spot for it. We got the signature California Burrito and Tacos. The tacos were good, but the burrito was absolutely amazing! The burrito had really flavorful chunks of steak with the perfectly crispy fries that were covered in their special sauce. An absolute must try and would come back just for this! Entrees: California Burrito, Lengua and Carne Asada Tacos

This place is amazing. The best Mexican food I've had in the NOVA area (And yes I know Manassas has some delicious spots but this place is truly authentic). The service is nice, quick. I don't think I've waited super long for food here at all. Fair warning I do think this place is better suited for takeout because they have small storefront. There are tables but scarce. Usually whoever I've gone with I prefer to sit inside because it's very homey to me as it reminds me of my childhood especially with their killer soundtrack they play in the restaurant. My recommendations especially during the winter/cold months is: arroz con leche (sometimes they are out because it's super delicious and sells out), champurrado (hot chocolate but thickened), torta de milanesa (beef option, it's a thing sliced of breaded meat), and I personally really like their tacos de lengua, al pastor, and asada. My partner really likes their California burrito (because they add French fries in the inside). Anyways, this place is amazing, if you haven't gone or it's been on your list please go. They deserve all the business and more.

Hands down the best California burrito in the area. Fries have great flavor and the chipotle sauce really brings it all together. Comes with two small salsas but I ordered extra and I'm glad I did because they were amazing. Also ordered the birria tacos but can't give them a fair review because I heated them up for lunch the next day and you know how that goes with corn tortillas. Consume was tasty so I do think they would be great fresh. Menu was in Spanish but I didn't find that to be a problem as a frequent Mexican food eater. Parking lot was a bit chaotic on a Saturday afternoon but there was one around the side that had a few spots for me to sit and eat the first half of my burrito. On my 30 minute drive home, I did think about the second half of the burrito the whole time so will definitely be returning!

California chicken burrito was solid but could've used a little more avocado and chicken, and less fries. The birria tacos lived up to the hype I definitely recommend! Double check your receipt as we got charged for beef burrito when we ordered and were given chicken.

I got the California burrito with chicken and it was amazing. I'll def be going back. My husband got a few tacos and he was not impressed. He said they were all very bland so the burrito is the way to go.

I've been here multiple times since this placed opened pre covid but last night's decision to try it again was my last. I had three tacos, Al pastor, carne asada and chorizo --all of which tasted the same--tasteless, bland, totally unadventurous fillings, mainly onion, few parsley parts--soft cucumbers, radishes and tiny pieces of lime on the side plus hot sauce made tacos more palatable. One beef taco was tough and tasted of old meat. My hb ordered a California burrito which was quite generous in size but soggy, too full of limp fries and lacking in fresh flavors. The prices are exceptionally inexpensive (tacos $3.50) today, post covid. Cutting corners on fresh ingredients such as, avocado, pineapple, sour cream etc make for unappetizing tacos and burritos. Taqueria Cancun has tables to eat in however it does appear to be primarily a call in your order then pick it up place in a small but busy shopping corner. Thus, parking is tight.

The food was so good! The service is well organized and perfect in time. Small place with big heart and service! I will go back again!

One of my favorite spots for tacos for affordability, convenience, and taste! I always need to get at least 3! I haven't dined in before, only to-go and my orders are always completed very quickly.

This taqueria doesn't look like much from the parking lot but all the food I've had here has been outstandingly good. The lunch rush can cause a wait but it's worth it. My most recent meal was tostadas con camarones

Absolutely amazing food. California burrito was the best one i've ever had. Really good service and staff was super nice and even let us try a drink sample.

Here is what you need to know- - It's cheap - It's delicious That alone should tell you to stop by. The menu is in Spanish but fear not English only speakers, the staff are incredibly friendly and I highly recommend you get their suggestions. I got a burrito (made the way the woman at the counter recommended) and it was delicious and huge. It's a small place and I'm betting it's always packed but the tables seem to rotate out pretty quickly. The place has a warm and homey feel. Try it ... you will love it.

California burrito is San Diego girl approved! It's a while away, but we will be back

I wanted to like this spot but the flavors of the tacos were underwhelming in my opinion. I stopped by with my gf for dinner the other night and I found myself drenching my tacos with sauce. The elote was also okay in my opinion (y'all know I don't play around with corn). I'm not sure if I'll be back, as a taco feen I was not a fan.

Tacos are delicious and a they have a variety of options. Service is friendly and portions are satisfying. I didn't understand the green sauce but I am from a different part of Mexico so I understand the differences.

Knew it was going to be good when the whole menu is in Spanish and almost all the patrons were spanish speaking. Alot of taco spots in the area tend to be......lets say, gentrified. California burrito was great! Haven't had one since I lived in San Diego and was very pleased. Portion was huge, carne asada was very seasoned and tender, crispy fries, fresh avocado. Just a bit too much Chipotle mayo.

A hidden gem in Nova for some authentic Mexican food that doesn't break the bank! I've been here several times, and while everything I've had was delicious and filling, I can never say no to a (great) California burrito. I know..not actually authentic Mexican food..but still great, IMO! From the carne asada, to the guacamole, to the french fries, everything was all wrapped up tight and perfectly. The best California burrito I've found in the area! Additionally, with so many taco places in the area, the asada tacos, al pastor tacos, and pollo tacos are truly some of the best I've had out here! If you're looking for great, delicious, authentic Mexican food, look no further than Taqueria Cancun! Food usually takes about 20 minutes after ordering, but it is completely worth it.

Came here after seeing a tik tok of the California burrito and I have had bad experiences with tik tok food but this place was legitimately delicious. The place is small and you order at the counter where the service was nice and patient especially when we couldn't decide what to get. I inhaled the California burrito. The crunch of the papas fritas with the soft avocado and steak was a combination I didn't know I needed in my life. The consumme broth for birria is so flavorful that my friend was slurping it up after finishing the tacos. I also got the horchata which tasted really thick in comparison to some other horchatas I've had but I also think that's because I got the last bit of it. I would like to thank tik tok for this excellent discovery.

Who needs flowers on Valentine's Day? The boy dropped in with a surprise burrito for lunch and I was floored by how absolute fire it was. The California burrito is stuffed with cheese, pico de callo, aguate, steak, and french fries. I told myself I was just going to take one bite but ended up scarfing the entire thing down during a Zoom meeting. You cannot believe the horror I felt when I realized I forgot to turn off my camera and saw my burrito face in HD on the screen. But it was 190% worth it. This was the best burrito I have had in a long time. I don't even like burritos! I also got to try an al pastor taco which was kind of meh. I'll skip that the next time I come back (which I know will be soon) and order extra, extra burritos instead.

Hands down the best place for your cravings. Service is quick and so nice, they were very patient with our group since not all of us have been here before. Through multiple visits- I've tried the quesadillas, burritos, birria tacos, chips and guac. Never had a complaint any time. I have also gotten carry out and Uber eats them once and we're delicious and hot. Thanks! Will continue to always support this business!

4.5 stars! Amazing place for take-out at an affordable price. The burritos are HUGE. Definitely can share with one other person for only $10! My favorite is their California and Chorizo. The Asada/Pork was just ok since it wasn't too flavorful. Not the biggest fan of their salsas that came on the side. The Tostadas De Camaron was also pretty good! The Horchata is good, but doesn't taste like a typical one. It was more like Injoelmi/soybean flavor?

My friend and I went here for lunch and their tacos were so good!! it's a small space with pretty limited seating, but definitely worth going. We got the tacos al pastor and also the carnitas, both tacos were delicious. I've been to Mexico and the al pastor reminded me of the tacos from Mexico! Definitely satisfied the craving. The sauces were also great! Service was also good, they're quick and sweet. Can't wait to go back.

How have I never known this place existed?! There are very very few places in NoVA that can be legitimately considered Mexican (most are Tex Mex) but this place definitely delivers. I saw that they had a California burrito and decided to stop by. The carne asada was perfectly cut into bite size pieces and stuffed with fries. Highly recommend. If you decide to stay to eat (there are a few tables), use the red and green sauces -- they are AMAZING! I also got an horchata and it was tasty. Overall, the food here is awesome as is the service. When I want some real Mexican food, I know where to go from now on.

One of the best burrito places around Falls Church. I have gotten a fair amount of the menu items and all are solid. I love the carne asada California burrito the most though. Always on time, online pickup is easy. The staff are always friendly. Highly recommend!

Friendly service and great food at a resonable price. This is a nice little hole in the wall taco joint tucked away in a strip mall off Lee Highway in Falls Church, VA. My wife loves the slow-braised Birria dishes, while I faveor the tasty and filling burritos. The Taco Fritos are so crispy, they shatter like glass when you take that first bite, so be prepared with a plate under you. Everything is made to order, so don't expect fast food. Orders seem to take about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the time of day. Lots of folks seem to do takeout. We like the house-made tamarindo. It's lemony-tart and a bit too sweet, not very pulpy either (if your familiar with tamarind drinks) so it's also a good idea to get a cold bottle of water to mix to your taste.

I just contracted a horrible stomach flu after eating a chicken quesadilla from the place. Eat at your own risk. I won't be back.

Such good authentic burritos! So much flavor and so messy but good and super affordable. I could barely eat half they are huge. I definitely appreciate how fresh the food was and would totally order from here again.

I ordered online which is pretty easy. The restaurant does not have a ton of seating indoors but I ordered my food To Go and it was pretty simple. The food was excellent as I ordered the California Burrito was is tasty and has the right amount of heat and spice. I would go back.

Just wen to Mexico City and this place hits just as good! I will keep coming back here for tacos, burritos, and other Mexican food

BEST CALIFORNIA BURRITO !! We either do steak or shrimp. Small hole in the wall place but but so comfy inside Everything is fairly priced but it doesn't matter cause their food is worth every penny !! Service js fast and awesome and the workers are nice

I got the California burrito and it really hit the spot. With tax, it was about $11 :) Everything together is just so comforting. I like the freshness and softness of the avocado. I think there's chipotle mayo in there that makes in flavorful and rich. The steak was tender. I also liked the green salsa, it was creamy and spicy but not too spicy. As I write this, I'm debating going back to get one for the road lol! There's not really any places that make burritos like this around :(

5/5 delish. So mad I discovered this gem. There goes my diet. Highly recommend the carne asada and shrimp!

Outstanding burritos and quesadillas! The staff was super helpful with suggestions since this was our first visit. Don't expect fancy decor - - just delicious food!

I enjoyed my dinner here! They have great seating available at dinner time, my food was warm, and service was pretty quick! I ordered tacos and two types of burritos. I would come back for the California burrito for sure! Notably, their green and red sauces on the tables were VERY good- I'd love a bottle of that at home! Nothing bad to say, but I've definitely had better! If you're willing to try a new place, give it shot and get the California burrito & try both their sauces!

Stopped by Taqueria Cancun for lunch today & had the BEST California pollo burrito! Prices weren't bad, lots of options & fairly quick service during the lunch rush. Highly recommend checking this spot out!!

Authentic tacos, located in a plaza. I had 3 tacos, 2 asada, and 1 El pastor, with a side of horchata. Horchata wasn't my favorite - coming from California, I am very picky with that. Overall was a great experience. Bill was around $16.50 after tip.

One of the best taco places around. I'm a huge fan of their lengua and tripa tacos. They have horchata and the tacos friotos!!! They have excellent service as well. They have some limited seating but they get a lot of carry out business.

We love this Mexican hidden gem!! Great prices, DELICIOUS authentic flavors, and even yummy sauces!! The service is great too! No real ambiance just grab and go!!

Tacos here are great! The restaurant itself does not a lot of seating but i didn't have trouble finding a table on a Saturday afternoon. The waitress did a great job with being covid safe and wore a mask. I got the steak and chicken tacos and they were amazing! The price was about average for what you can get around the dc area. I got 2 tacos not expecting to be full after but they were definitely filling for 2 tacos. The menus also contained other foods as well that sound delicious.. I'll have to come back and try something new next time!
