Taqueria los Ocampo

They either lost my order or someone took it. Waited almost a half hour for a taco combo with some extra tacos. Ceiling dusty and staff are not very friendly. I think I’ll stop tipping before I pay. Ordered delivery

Edit 8/26 - I had not been here in while. They definitely spruced up the place and it feels more family friendly. Uploaded more photos of the food because it is really delicious. Some reviews deserve to be updated. Amazing food and amazing people. The only downside of this place is the location. You may get a colorful drunk character here and there on a weekend. But other than that, the food is absolutely worth the wait, which is significant when they are packed. The alambres and the gorditas, and birria tacos are a highlight for me.

Taqueria los Ocampo has a great selection of superb, authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price. The service is a bit slower, but that is usually due to the large number of orders and the quality of the food. Worth the wait, definitely. The sauces also have a great kick, which is always a bonus! 😋

This is our go to spot for delicious Mexican food, I hate to say it, but we’ve had better tasting food here that in our last two trips to Mexico. So you know it’s amazing.

When I want great service and help from polite workers I visit the Suburban Ave location. The system at this location for customer service is pretty wack starting with the cashier to the pick up/serve area when you grab your food. The food is great at the Arcade Street location. The late hours are a plus. That’s about it though. It would be smoother if the young man cashier would ask if the order is for here or to go after greeting the customer without a rude facial expression. Instead of the customer greeting the cashier. To the rude lady workers that serve the food - call out the order number in English and Spanish. Not everyone speaks Spanish. A women looked at me crazy right in my eyes because she called my order number 3 times in Spanish then finally in English. If only you could serve free smiles and easy communication. 1/22/24

I ordered a beef barbacoa quesadilla combo through DoorDash and it was quite good. The beef was so tender and flavorful! I will say that the rice and beans were a bit plain for my liking. I did really appreciate that they included 3 different types of salsas/sauces, as well as napkins and disposable silverware. It’s not the absolute best Mexican food I have had in the twin cities, but it was authentic and pretty tasty overall. I likely will order from here again!

This has become one of my favorite Mexican spots in the Twin Cities. I’ve tried some other places but there are few Mexican restaurants in the area like this and that’s a good thing. The tacos are amazing and so flavorful. All of the sauces and salsas are great. Try the yuca fries, they pair well together. The prices are resonance and I like the wide variety of options. The beverages like the horchata are also great. I come here with my partner all the time and I’ve become kind of addicted to this place!

Very tasty food with large portions. We really enjoyed our lunch. A little heavy handed on the cilantro so if you don’t love cilantro, you’ve been warned. 😁

Compre tacos y los pedí sin cebolla y solo cilantro y cuando llegue a mi casa mire que solo venían con cebolla

I called at 5:05 to pick up food and they said to give them 15 mins came in @ 5:30 to give them time and still had to wait another 20 mins while other ppl got their food before me! They were not even busy at all!! Wtf kind of service is this!!!

I was pretty disapppinted, because I remember enjoying this place before. I stopped by to pick up pazole, and tacos to go. When I got there, I went to the ordering counter, but nobody was there. I saw people cooking at the grill and in the kitchen, Im sure at least 3 people saw me standung there, but nobody came to help me. Thankfully, the phone rang so somebody came out. When I got my order, there was oil and sauce on the bag from dirty hands, but worst of all nothing tasted fresh. The tortilllas with the tacos were hard, the al pastor was dry, and the meat/onion ratio was heavy on the onions. The avocado was dark, lettuce was wolted and the limes did not produce much juice. I usually love Los Ocampos, but I won't be going back to this location.

Used to be much better. I live near, and while the food is pretty good, the service makes me dread going back every time. The kitchen crew (who you have to grab your food from) ignores people who come in, never smile, never say thank you, and every time I ask for hot salsa I only get mild. I resorted to ordering DoorDash tonight so I wouldn't have to deal with the attitudes, my only request was hot salsa...didn't happen. The suburban location at least treats everyone equal. Done spending money on a place that makes me feel like a burden

Great service, a long time wait but worth the wait for delicious foods. Security guard service is welcoming so I feel safe even being a professional security myself I feel safe seeing other guards when I go to different restaurants. But good food and good service.

It's an alright place has a lot of different options to choose from this place is just a little messy like un cleaned but food is great but they definitely need to get better employees and clean the place up a bit

The worst surprise I've ever had eating alambres. Bugs cooked on my food. I will call the health department for this disgusting action for take out. Employees making fun in Spanish about customers that walk in. The meet from the back was out with out room temperature. Employees making fun of customers walking , rolling their eyes. Health department needs to be aware.

we ordered food and waited for an hour just for them to say they don't have our ticket so we left angry and hungry

Delicious! We got this to go the other night, so I'm not sure how the dine in service is. I had the carnitas quesadilla, it was huge and delicious! Couldn't finish it, but it was perfect the next days for breakfast too! My husband had a burrito and was very pleased. Classic rice and beans, all was yummy and fresh.

My standard when it comes to mexican food. I've frequented this place many times and have gone to the other satelite franchises (Lake Street, Midtown, white bear) and though they are all good, nothing beats the Arcade location. I've had multiple entrees at Los Ocampos so i will delve into a different kind of review. They flat top grill the meats adding a caramalization to the dishes. I believe they have the best Pastor in the Twin Cities. It has that deep red color on the outside, but also has the crispy, somewhat burned, texture from the flat top. It's savory and sweet and when added to any dish, takes the taste over the top. The salsa avocado, is also, in my opinion, the best in the twin cities. I haven't been able to find anything like it in the twin cities. I've been to Taco Riendo, Los Paisanos, and other taco places in the twin cities and none of them have been able to match the sauce (though, they are good in their own right). The sauce is a thick spicy, creamy, sweet, and thick piece of heaven. It hits your tongue and you get that savory taste with the creamy texture and right after the spiciness kicks in and takes your taste buds on a journey. This place sets the bar for Mexican food for me and sadly because I've had a taste of Los Ocampos, a lot of other places don't measure up to my standards.

Just caution. The menu has changed. The prices have increased. I have eaten here so many times. I've dined in, taken out & called in orders. This time I called in, ordered my usual #8 Taco Acorazado & went to pick it up. My heart was broken when I see an entire new menu layout. (Cute, bright, easy to read mhmmm) but #8 is now a flippin' quesadilla! Seriously, you don't warn someone about this? I asked about the new change & the cashier I spoke to basically didn't care. I wasnt too upset that my now #19 is $3 MORE. I'll pay for what I WANTED, but gee Golly $12 for some cheese between a tortilla???!! Ugh. Ocampo you kicked me in the tummy today. Ouch. I'll eat this kids meal today, but next time I'm ready for your shenanigans. Also, like I mentioned in my first review the $1.99 tacos are now almost $3.00. They must be doing well. Inflation is a punta. Waaaahhh.

What is a Southern California boy stranded in the Midwest to do about Mexican Food? Answer: struggle. I was enthralled by the authentic appearing menu and clientele on arrival, but was ultimately left disappointed by generic flavors, high prices, and okay salsas. The best part of this restaurant is that it closes at 4AM: a late night munchie location that St Paul desperately needs.

Huaraches tasted oily. El burritos mercado has better version. Restaurant is fast food style, neighborhood is so so. The parking space is shared among other businesses. 3 stars. Probably would check out this place again in a few months.

Service was good. Wait was long time to take to go. I was really surprised to find horchata drink there :) I liked the food! Hidden gem.

Came here again for the first time in probably months because I was seriously craving some tacos, and this place was the best place I can think of. (Allegedly, there is some kind of taco truck that shows up on White Bear Ave which is closer to where I live, but I have never seen this truck, and for all I know, it is actually Bigfoot. But in taco truck form.) The ladies who run the place are super sweet! The numbered menu makes for easy ordering, which is great if you can't pronounce Spanish to save your life. They have a helpful sign posted up above the register listing all the types of meat you can order with your food. I'm pretty jazzed that cabeza (beef cheek meat) and lengua (beef tongue!) are options, because those are (in my opinion) the two tastiest types of meat. I ordered the taco combo. You get three tacos (your choice of meat), a can of pop, and beans and rice for $11.99 with the choice to dine in or dine out. Last time I was here, I got take out. This time, I dined in and hung out at a table by myself. It was 100% awesome and made for a rather satisfying dinner. 10/10 would come here for tacos again. They're open late, which is a billion points in their favor, especially when you don't want to settle for less and get Taco Bell instead.

Ordered lunch online, couldn't even locate my order when I arrived. Took forever to figure out what was going on, then took a long time to get my meal prepared. A reason I Ordered ahead, so I could enjoy my lunch - didn't even get to do that before heading back to work. Beans were runny and disgusting, along with the guacamole. The chips were burnt and the food was greasy. Disappointing that I didn't even get am apology for my order not even being started, and I gave them 30 minutes before arriving..

Cliff notes review: PROS - Large menu chock full of quality Mexican eats. - Damn tasty huaraches, sopes, huarachazos (essentially an upgraded huarache), tortas and tacos. - Open late (til 4 AM on the weekends) - A long list of meats and similar ilk (e.g., pastor, carnitas, cheek, tongue, chicken tinga, etc.). - Reasonable prices - Clean dining room - Generally friendly service CON - Strip mall location Definitely one of my favorites for Mexican food in the Cities - get a huarachazo and it might become yours too.

TACOS. I love authentic Mexican tacos and in MN this place feeds my need. Carne asada, onion and cilantro in two thin layered warm corn tortillas. Can life get any better than this? No, unless you're in Mexico. Oh and getting the chips and salsa is worth it cause the more salsa verde and salsa aguacate you can eat, the better your life will be. Tip: All combo meals come with a can of pop, horchata or agua de jamaica - they don't always mention this so you need to remember to order it. Highlights: Tacos Sincronizadas w/Ham Chips and Salsa Verde/Salsa Aguacate Rice/Beans Elote Taqueria Los Ocampo 2 = Yo Quiero

I was driving down Arcade and saw this place. I have seen it before, but never visited it. I have read good things about this place. I was hungry and decided I did not want to cook tonight. This is the perfect spot to get a bite to eat. I saw a server that I thought was also the host. I quickly figured out this is a seat yourself place. I looked over the menu board and decided on a steak burrito. I sat down at a booth with my beverage. My order was prepared quickly and served to me. The server mentioned the sauce was a spicy sauce. And I could tell it was a green sauce, which is not what I prefer. I asked for a Red Sauce and she brought me a 2 oz container. I was immediately surprised at the size of this burrito. This was not a large burrito. This was a Jumbo Burrito. I tried the chips first. They were stale and not very good. If fresher, they would have been good. I tried the guac. It was OK, but think there could be better guac around. Then I picked up the Jumbo Burrito.. I was concerned that it would fall apart during eating to the point of being a burrito I would need a fork or spoon to continue. As I ate my burrito, I was adding some of the hot sauce. It was pretty good sauce. I just wish the sauce could be added while it was being prepared. As large as this was, I was not wanting to unwrap, add sauce and wrap up again. I think that would have made for a messy burrito. It was decent tasting, but glad I had a little sauce to liven it up a bit. I had a couple small pieces of something that were very hard and had to remove from my mouth. My guess is they were beans that were not cooked or something. Not sure how that could happen though. I did not finish it. I had a small bite left over. I was simply too full. As it turned out, I was so full, once I got home, I could not spend the time necessary to put together a dressing for a macaroni salad for the weekend eats.

I stoped here after a workout at the east side YMCA which is adjacent to this taqueria. I was starving! Ordered the Al Pastor burrito, to go. It was a long wait, but enjoyed watching the energy of this place while I waited. When I got home I chowed down on the burrito (which could have been two meals.). Huge! Delicious combo of cheese, rice, beans and marinated pork. Served with chips and guacamole. I'm looking forward to returning.

Came here for dinner on Monday night. Ordered two tripe tacos, two chicken tacos, al pastor sope, and the special corn. The tripe tacos were delicious!! The seasoning was spot on and it has the crunchy texture that I love that most places don't do. Radish, tomatillo based hot sauce, the guacamole cream sauce and lime made it an exceptional tacos. I lived in Los Angles for a few years and this taco rivaled with the some of the best tacos in LA. Bad: the sope; the al pastor needs a lot of work. The flavor was not well developed, the meat was dried and soaked with oil. They didn't even gave me a few slices of pineapple that I'm accustomed to getting with al pastor. The sope bread has good flaky texture. The specialty corn was good; the mayo, cheese, and spices were good. It could used a little more lime juice. The corn would taste better if it was grilled instead of boiled. Chicken taco: my girl finished both quickly and didn't say anything about it. The corn was her flavored thing on the menu.

Used to be my favorite Mexican spot in the Twin-Cities until the recent management change. The food and cleanliness of the have both gone down hill since then. The staff is also unfriendly to the point of being rude. The horchata is watered down and so is the salsa verde. Guacamole sucked. Pastor isn't seasoned the same. Don't bother coming here unless you're desperate. I recommend Manana papusaria just up the street on E 7th st. Way more legit and the staff is super cool and friendly.

I did have a post 2 weeks ago about this restaurant and wanted to communicate better with English among the employees. After eating my meal of chicken bureto; I had more rice and lettuce, beans than I did chicken. It actually made me nauseous. This was the third time eating there and the food was not good. It was like chewing plastic. Some of the lettuce was not digestible. I was disappointed spending $42 dollars for 2 beef and 1 chicken bureto with hardly any meat in either one of them. Any restaurant only gets one time to mess with my food or my stomach. I will not order from this place again. I also asked several times for 2 elote in a cup. I didn't get it the way I had it before, or the fixings that come with that order. I also ordered plantains but I didn't get them either. It wasn't on the bill and when I saw that I just decided to stop asking for it. The communication between the cashier/order taken was not the best, which I am fine with. When I asked again for the multiple time, I decided not to ask again. I was sorely disappointed once I got home, thinking I will again have a great meal with my husband. It made both of us constipated from all the rice, whatever was mixed in with the lettuce that tasted like plastic and not digestible. The whole experience was disappointing and Taqueria Los Ocampo-Arcade has lost a customer..

Pet Peeve: Claiming to eat Mexican food when you eat at Chipotle This is where you get to put your 4 years of Spanish class to use. Everything is good here. All flavors of their tacos are good. I like the regular ground beef ones the best. The gordita is huge. I'm a big fan. Love their burritos. If you like authentic Mexican food, this spot is da bomb. You will need to know how to speak Spanish (just a little, at least know your numeros). Parking kinda sucks sometimes because it's in a little strip mall that is pretty busy. Service can be kinda slow sometimes because it's so busy. If you don't mind the language barrier, I would highly recommend this place. This place doesn't look like the same chain of Los Ocompo popping up in the area. For some reason, because it says "Taqueria", it's 10 times better. I've tried the others and they don't taste or feel the same. The only thing they have in common is the logo.

Love their tacos and love their nachos! I am very adventurous when it comes to food and tried almost the whole menu including the different kind of meat they serve for the taco. Overall I always end up going for the taco and nachos with a horchata on the side. Horchata is cinnamon rice milk, it's sweet and refreshing. It's like drinking milk that's been splashed with cinnamon toast crunch.

Amazing! Doesn't look like much on the outside. That's what I love about it. Keeps all the people who judge out. Very authentic feel.

Best authentic Mexican tacos in St. Paul!!! I have tried most of tacos on the menu and my favorite are the spicy ground beef, chipotle chicken and El Pastor. Ratio of the ingredients are just right. They also have a great selection of Mexican sodas as well.

One of the best places in Mexican places in Mn for sure. Everything here is delicious, especially the tacos and the torta cubana.

This used to be one of my favorite Mexican spots in St Paul, but it has definitely gone down hill the last few years from the cleanliness to the food. I'd rather drive to mpls to get food from la hacienda than eat here. The food is hardly seasoned, the wait times are ridiculous even when they aren't busy you'll still have to wait about 30 min for 3 tacos and all of their staff are extremely rude to customers.

Andale taqueria is way better. Mediocre service. Tacos lacking in flavor. I ordered pastor and suadero. Sauces weren't much of an addition either.

The customer service is great here and food tastes great too but it really needs tidying. There are roaches in the building and fruitflies. The fruitflies seem to be a huge issue because the past two weeks I've gone they haven't gotten rid of them yet. Hoping that the building managers do something about it.

I'll have to admit that I normally love and try all of Katherine Z's recommendation; they are always on point. I love MSP - but I really wish that there were lots of late night dining options in the cities; I hardly eat dinner early. So obviously at 10PM I realized I didn't have dinner and I wasn't in the mood to make anything; Enter taqueria Los Ocampo and it's wonderful Tinga de pollo. Taco Tinga, tinga tinga. It's shredded marinated chicken with a spicy yet sweet sauce. I don't even know how to begin describing it - but if you're here do try it. This place is taco central - it has over 15 different tacos and I've tried 6 (mostly limited to chicken and vegetarian) It's on point; but the taco tinga de pollo was the most memorable. There are other authentic Mexican dishes too, but I was primarily there for tacos. They also have desserts - we tried platanos fritos (fried plantains with condensed milk) and HOLY bajesus - it's a simple dessert; but you know something's really go when you roll your eyes back, and close your eyes. My significant other said, "You're alright over there? Or should I leave you and the platanos alone" :P Ha It's located in a small strip mall, and kinda looks like a fast food joint. If you don't know what to order; there are pictures and descriptions of items. I don't think you can actually order something bad here. Rusty Tacos has nothing on this. WIN.

So many wonderful options here. If you're nervous about what you're ordering they also have helpful pictures to help you decide. I cannot get off the huarachazo with the tinga de pollo. Spicy and delicious. It's located in a small strip mall next to a Subway and the fluorescent lighting is a bit out of control but none of that matters when you're ignoring the people you came with because you're too busy stuffing food in your mouth. It's also open until 4am. Score.

3.5 Stars I was dubious about Los Ocampo. The online photos make it look like just some fast food joint. I doubted it could actually be open until 4am. I kind of doubted it could be good. But a friend who has lived in the hood for years said it's his fav Mexican place, and it has surprisingly good reviews so mi amiga y yo headed down to Arcade Street on Sat night. Good signs -- When we walked in, everyone working and dining at Los Ocampo was speaking Spanish. In fact, we were there for about an hour and only saw maybe three or four white people during that time. Authentic, si si!! Also, while we were waiting to place our order, the line behind us grew to reach the door. And business was pretty steady the whole time we were there. The menu -- Dios mio. I was overwhelmed at first but then I realized it's mostly solo items (eg tacos, tortas, burritos, enchiladas) that can be turned into a combo meal (with rice and beans) if you so desire, and then a long list of the proteins (including some vegetarian options) to choose from. There are also pictures and descriptions (in English) of almost everything to assist us gringos. I got a sope combo meal and my friend got a torta. I was also very excited to order a Jarritos Pineapple soda. The service -- When we arrived the girl at the register was on the phone. It seemed like she was taking a to go order. This was fine at first as it gave us time to take in the enormous menu. But then we were standing there for what felt like forever as the girl continued to take the call, but didn't acknowledge us in any way. So that was a bit annoying. And there's not a clear system for delivering food to the tables. The receipt has a number on it, but the number wasn't called out and we weren't given table markers either. The woman bringing food to all the tables was super nice but it seemed like she just had to wander around the dining room until she matched the food to the person. I feel that they could adopt one of the systems successfully implemented by every other restaurant out there and get this figured out. La comida -- Exceeded my expectations. Especially considering I was eating with plastic utensils off a styrofoam plate. Not fine dining but still good food. I was also pleasantly surprised that the (slightly creamy, not usual chunky tomato) salsa offered to me was actually spicy. I am rarely impressed with rice and bean sides, but I finished these! My friend enjoyed her torta, which had no sides but was a large size on its own. We didn't have dessert, but there is flan, fried plantains, and tiramisu. The atmosphere -- The fluorescent lighting, color scheme, and table setups made me feel like I was at a Mexican McDonalds. But we enjoyed watching Mexican television, and the place seems reasonably clean. Several families were here, as well as couples, and people picking up food to go. According to the Los Ocampo website, there is a fancier restaurant with a bar on Suburban Ave. I'd definitely like to try more of the menu, so maybe next time I'll head to the version with a less fast food - like environment. But if in and out is your style, there are also three more locations like this one on Lake Street in Minneapolis. I am no longer dubious about Los Ocampo. It is tasty, and perhaps even authentic Mexican fare. And they are indeed open until 4am on the weekends. If they would get a proper ordering system in place and stop using styrofoam and I'd give them 4 Stars.

Only 4 stars cause there was an issue with my ticket getting lost resulting in a longer wait. I also stared at the menu confused for a long time. The nice lady helped figure out what this vegetarian wanted. But holy hell. Good food. For being cheaper than chipotle it tasted a million times better. Great food. Good service. The horchata was pretty bomb too.

Food is great. Authentic but pricey. I'm literally sitting here at the restaurant writing this review. I stopped coming here for a while because of what happened to me last time. I ordered my food and drove home. They got my order wrong TWICE. Cashier girl blamed it on the kitchen staff but as I was standing there, I could see them telling her she didn't punch in the order right. I had to pay for the correct order. She didn't even apologize and when I had spoke to someone to tell them that they should apologize because I made 2 trips back which is super inconvenient. They finally only offered me a free churro. Super good btw. This time, luckily I knew from experience to keep my receipt and to check my food, only got one of my orders, yet again cashier's fault because the kitchen looked dumbfounded when I told her I had 2 orders. Showed her my receipt and she apologized. Wouldn't come here if it wasn't so close to me. Don't get me wrong, the food is good, or else I wouldn't come back but the fact that they keep messing up and I have to constantly check my order before I leave is ridiculous.

Tacos are good, food is reasonably priced (maybe a tiny bit high, but portions are big, so it evens out!)... Has that fast food feel, but (similar to a Noodles) they'll wait on you if you eat in-store. PLUS, they have pictures of all of their dishes, which makes choosing go a lot faster. BONUS: Elote. Get it. Love it.

There are two reasons that Los Ocampo gets 5 stars: One is that it is the very, very rare late-night spot in St Paul for those of us who closely follow the liquor trade. (Umm.. Village Wok? Did you know that St Paul has a huge Asian population?) Two, is that after following the liquor trade a tad too closely, one can find respite from the storm of a hangover in the Torta Cubano at Los Ocampo. There is scant reference in this ridiculous sammich to an authentic Cubano, but really, who cares? In my very veteran experience, there are only two sandwich-remedies for the misery of a hangover, the Sasha at Cecil's (Jesus. Christ.), and this torta magnifico at Los Ocampo. Both feature a runny fried egg on top, but this one has so many features to belay the horror I am not sure that I can remember them all. I do recall milanesa, chicken, chorizo, chicken, cheese, jalapeños, tomatos, mayo, lettuce, lovely grease (gotta be some manteca?) and onion. It is too big to finish. Do not be dissuaded by the prospect of lard; on the contrary: this is exactly what the doctor ordered in case of hangover. PRN, with three Excedrin® washed down with CocaCola Mexicaña.

Mexican food has always been one of those types of cuisine that I don't really flock to when choosing a restaurant; not because I don't like it, but mostly because there are dozens of places who do it and a lot of it's really not all that great. However, let me urge you to hie your heinies over to this little gem in a typical strip mall on St. Paul's East Side, like right away. They have a huge menu of excellent Mexican treats, and they are open super late, if that's important to you. Most of the clientele tends to be Mexican, at least when I've been there. The menu should clue you in right away that this isn't a Mexican-Americanized place. They offer ingredients such as pumpkin blossom, huitlacoche (corn fungus), tripe, and several other kinds of meat that I haven't heard of. The tacos are great, but I really recommend the huarache. The huarache combo #22 is a masa cake, slightly thicker than a tortilla and topped with lettuce, sour cream, radishes, onion, choice of meat or veggie toppings and served with beans and Mexican rice. Delicioso! It's a lot of good food for super cheap. The service is always friendly. The ambiance is basic cafe with a big screen TV playing Mexican soap operas and music. Whaddaya waiting for?

I am so freaking tired of cream of mushroom soup. Ever since we first got that little chill in the air a few weeks ago, all my husband wants to eat are casseroles, hot dishes, or crockpot meals that prominently feature that salty, canned, creamy goo of coronary doom. Fortunately for me, last night we needed to get a quick dinner out between our workplaces and our church, and Taqueria Los Ocampo fit that bill nicely. Best of all: No cream of mushroom soup anywhere in sight! I tried the huarachazo, on the recommendation of my fellow yelpers. It was just OK, until I drizzled the spicy avocado salsa on top. THEN... it became a flaming pile of YUM. The bards that live among my tastebuds will be composing ballads... Anyway. I also had a giant cup of horchata, which was alright. Not the best horchata I've ever had, but it did help put out some of the fire in my mouth after I encountered that avocado salsa. Oh, and the telenovelas on Univision were a fun accompaniment to our meal, too. So I escaped the purgatory of soup-based meals, if only for one night. Give me a few more nights like this, and I may even survive fall.

Really great food. Lots of authentic options. Friendly staff. This place is a new regular spot.

Great tacos al pastor and carnitas. The place is clean and great staff. They brought my tacos to my table and even brought three sauces I could choose from. I took all three and they were great, orange sauce is HOT.

Besides the fact that the price for the tacos increased by a lot, it's not worth any penny on the tacos. I've came here before and everything has been great expect recently I've been in a few times and I've always leave unsatisfied. Not sure exactly if they made changes to their food recipes but the food doesn't take authentic at all anymore! (Coming from a Mexican who knows the real roots of authentic Mexican food!)

We have been here numerous times and it has now become our Go-To Mexican place. The Horchata makes my soul happy! This is the best Horchata I have ever had. You must get some! We usually order the same thing-number 6 with Carnitas. What this is, is a fried oval masa type shell with your choice of meat, beans, lettuce, avocado, radish, etc. etc.. All kinds of goodies piled on and served with three different sauces... I can not find it in myself to try anything else. Huarachazos is the official name of this thing. Don't ask me about the other meats (There are about 25 to choose from). You all know I am afraid of most meat, so I am not daring at all. I found my carnitas which i like and that is all I will ever have. I have also had the tacos which are perfect and the Torta, this huge Mexican sandwich which was excellent. Desserts-Churros which are good, just normal churros. Quit wasting your money on gringo style Mexican food and come here to get authentic Mexican grub!

My husband and I went here for the first time on Friday night, around 7:30. It was definitely busy but we didn't have a problem getting a table. It seems like a lot of people come for take out. The menu is huge so it took us a really long time to decide what to eat. We started with some chips and guacamole. The guac tasted very freshly made, very good. Some of the best I've had. I got cheese enchiladas with red sauce and my husband got a huarache with pork. We both tried each other's meals and everything was delicious. I don't have a single complaint about it. We got churros for dessert too, tasty. Staff was friendly but not overly chatty - they are busy! Even though you order at the counter, this definitely isn't fast food so don't go in expecting that. You are going to wait for them to prepare your meal. We were completely fine with this - I'd rather have something fresh - but people should be aware of the wait. Everything looked really good on the menu so we'll definitely be back to try more things. Neither of us work nearby so I can't go for lunch but it seems like it would be a great lunch spot.

I love the hell out of this place. it is so good you don't even mind the wait.. they have over 25 different taco meats

Very authentic mexican food. If your looking for a typical mexican restaurant or average fast food in the us don't come here. The food was amazing and selection on menu was great. The mewy selection for tacos was extensive. I had the beef tongue tacos which were great, very flavorful. The 3 salsas the bring out with the food have great flavor and heat. An excellent overall gem taqueria great value for the money will be comming back again.

I have come to this taco joint for over 6-8 years, give or take. This restaurant is as close as it gets to real authentic Mexican food; service is ok, nothing extraordinary. Some of these food items are what I typically order, I'd say they are my favorite thing to order from their menu (*I do not order these all at once*): 1. tacos - al pastor (marinated pork) & tripe 2. huarachazo - al pastor 3. torta - chorizo (mexican sausage) 4. torta cubana 5. horchata (rice drink) One appetizer I've ordered and was such a big disappointment is their GUAC & CHIPS. Badly seasoned, not tasty at all. Avoid this item. I remember one time I went in after work to pick up a take-out order, I waited some minutes for the order to be ready, I paid and took the food home without checking everything was good to go. I get home ready to eat my huarachazo al pastor, when I open the container I found out the meat was missing, it was very infuriating and it very much ruined my dinner. I called the restaurant right away and asked to speak to the manager, I explained the whole situation to the manager and her only reply was "I'm sorry about that". I was expecting to receive some sort of credit for when I'd buy food the next time it'd be free but it never happened, her apology was not enough. I still come here despite the fact that they ruined my dinner once, they have not made any more mistakes on my orders. If you love Mexican food, I definitely recommend you give this place a try. I give four stars only because of the bad service I received that one time, other than that, I guarantee you'll enjoy the food. BON APPETIT!

Only one waiting in line and no one has picked my order since I got here 10 minutes ago. Staffs just looks at me and then goes on about their business.

Went there today at midnight.Ordered tacos al pastor and agua de horchata. The meat wasn't tasty. Agua de horchata wasn't tasty either. This place definitely went down hill. Wouldn't recommend coming to this place!!
