Love this place madly! My favorite (the bathroom decor lol) No but really it’s *drum roll* - the, CLASSIC, chicken and cheese quesadilla!! With healthy portions, it is so filling and cooked to perfection. (It reminds me of growing up in a Mexican restaurant my mother worked at for 25 years so I always feel a taste of home when I come here. Including the Kitschy, Seasonal and eye popping, colorful Mexican/modern decor! ) Authentic food, great music and down to earth good people. They also have trivia nights and karaoke so support this local small business. It is truly one of my favorites and I actually get a quesadilla probably at least once a week lol (The woman’s bathroom is a gem!) There’s a bar and booths and regular tables Also many, GAMES AND TOYS FOR LITTLE ONES TO STAY BUSY!

We've visited NexMex a few times now....this is a hidden gem. Great food and service and a very comfortable atmosphere. Our server "Kortney K" was fantastic....professional and pleasant. She has given us several great food recommendations. We'll be back. Thanks

Nice restaurant with good food, really sweet staff, very cool decor. Free chips and salsa, nachos were good, and tacos were bigger than expected. A side of fries is HUGE. Amazing prices!! And the bathroom was clean.

The food has been consistent every time we have visited. The birria tacos and street corn (cob or bowl) are delicious! They have avocado fries too!

Great service. Friendly. Nice prices. Good food. I had a steak burrito, which I already had a few bites of before breaking out the phone. My girl had the Bean and Cheese Enchilada, which is pictured. Kitchen is open till midnight on Saturday. It's a little drafty.

The food is great and we’ve ordered takeout from here a few times, but we just had a very poor customer service experience. Willing to revise and amend this review if it is made right by the business. Had a take out order for pick up, ordered a birria quesadilla, and birria burrito. Drove there to pick it up, drove all the way back home , open the bag, there’s no burrito. We called the restaurant to let them know, there’s no apology, they say we can come back and pick it up. Drive all the way back there, the place is empty, there’s no other orders in there. I show them the receipt and the server at the front tells the cook to just start making the burrito now even though I told her I was on my way. She said it’s because she didn’t know it was in the burrito, even though she could easily looked it up or have asked me on the phone. no apology in person, no offer of anything on the house to make up for this error, which cost me a lot of time waiting and making two driving round trips.

I ordered from here the first time the other night, and I have to say the food was great. I ordered the steak taco which was delicious as you can see by the photo i ended up eating half of it before I got a chance to take the picture lol. I also got their elote, and chips and guacamole with a side of queso cheese, at first glance at the elote I wasn't at all impressed, it looked very plain and I thought the taste was going to match the look but I was wrong lol, it was absolutely delicious. Next we move onto the chips and guacamole absolutely great, the chips were a little too salty to me but still great, the only few small issues I had was the queso, it litterally tasted like they melted and watered down some velveeta cheese and added some seasonings too it. Please get another queso recipe, because your food is to delicious to not have queso to match, I would have definitely given 5 stars had the queso been delicious. And then only 1 more issue I had ordered from uber eats app when I placed this order and the menu was very misleading, it said I would be getting 3 tacos, it even asked when adding the toppings if I wanted the add ons added to 1, 2, or 3 tacos, I obviously pressed to have the toppings added to 3 tacos, and was charged for toppings for each individual taco, so I was charged add on toppings for 2 tacos I didn't even recieve, but this seems to be an uber app menu issue and not that of the actual restaurant, but the restaurant should definitely go on the uber app for ordering from their restaurant and make sure uber fixes that so their customers don't continue getting over charged. Over all great experience and I will be ordering from here again. Thanks for the delcious food guys.

Super super impressed with this restaurant! We came in after looking at yelp reviews and right away, were pleasantly surprised by how cute it is inside. I had their house made hibiscus tea (absolutely delicious) and birria tacos, my husband had a quesadilla. Service was super fast, food was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Would absolutely recommend!

It had been years since I last visited The Nexmex Thing, and I wasn't even sure what to expect when I walked in--it's moved across the street since I was last there. Honestly, I wasn't even hungry, mostly thanks to a stressful day at work. But I'm really glad I stopped in for lunch. I ordered the grilled carnitas burrito, and it turned out to be absolutely delicious. From the first bite to the last, every layer of flavor came through--tender, flavorful pork, fresh toppings, and perfectly balanced seasoning. It was one of those meals where you keep eating not out of hunger, but because it's just that good. And yes, despite not feeling hungry at all, I ate the whole thing. I'll definitely be heading back soon. This place is worth rediscovering.

Wasn't informed the ground beef would have peppers and onions in it (kids normally order ground beef american quesadilla/tacos so they were not happy) its not on there doordash also isnt seasoned well the beef just taste like peppers. Most importantly i found a hair in my quesadilla (in the photo i attempted to take out as much peppers and onions but it almost took me an hour)

Wife almost choked on a bone in her enchiladas... Why would a bone be in her enchiladas? I don't know. They gave us a $3 discount and didn't even sound concerned. Won't be going back.

im so impressed with the patience of the front desk. My door dash order got miscommunicated and they remade my order because it was sitting there for a while. I appreciated all the help and patience from (Paten). She was on the phone with door dash and helping me re submit my order! Thank you so much!

So we found this in 2020 and it was AMAZING! Take out is awesome and the ambiance is great when we go in. The people working are attentive and kind! My boyfriend loves the margarita flight, they're just a bit sweet for me! I love the huge quesadillas, birria soup, birria tacos, streak tacos with guac and avocado sauce sour cream, small portions of guac when ordered as a side so that's disappointing. However recently the tomato's haven't been that fresh. Other than that, great!

Food was okay but it got me sick the day after! The service was overall pretty good for a smaller type of restaurant. Service was an 6/10. I would recommend going but DONT order the burrito.

First off I think everyone should know that even if you are a party of five they automatically add 20% to the check. At least that is exactly what happened to us. We came on a Monday around 4:00 and the place was empty except for one other customer. The service was painfully slow but the food was really really good and they accommodated vegan and vegetarian diets. The fried ice cream was yummy. There is an ebb and flow to good service and that was not mastered yet. We do not like the fact that they added a 20% tip to the check .... Especially when we were only a party of five. The service was slow and we should have had the option to tip accordingly. We are usually chronic overtippers so they actually hurt themselves by charging the 20%..... Not helped themselves.

We have ordered from y'all a few times and like the food although it's a little overpriced. But it's tasty and not a lot of Mexican options around. Today we ordered on uber eats and my shrimp burrito which was $20 because I added avocado was literally half the size or less of my husband's burrito. There has never been such a size discrepancy between different types and is absolutely ridiculous. If I'm gonna get half the burrito it should be half the price.

They can include the full order for once and not constantly get it wrong every god damn time holy incompetence

I paid $41.00 for two entree items and a side of street corn. I placed the order in person and waited 40 minutes for my food. They didn't bring it out from the kitchen so it was already cold when I got it. I ordered a quesadilla and asked for beans and rice, not in the quesadilla, but on the side. I received a side of rice and beans but they put both black and pinto beans inside the quesadilla. There was VERY little cheese in the quesadilla. I had to search for cheese. My husband ordered cheese enchiladas. There was very little cheese but A LOT of beans. They had no enchilada sauce. They were very small. The street corn had good flavor but the kernels were cold and shriveled. The young man who took my order and eventually brought it to me, was very nice and apologetic for the many issues. The woman who processed my payment was rude but didn't hesitate to turn the screen around and provide an opportunity for me to add a tip,... for terrible service. The restaurant has a lively and festive ambience. I hope they can work out their performance and product issues and can stay in business. I paid way too much for what I received and will likely not return soon nor would I recommend it to others.

Awesome food & service My girlfriends and I went here for a moms night out. Which was much needed. This place went above and beyond our expectations. We all agreed the food and drinks were fantastic. Our waitress was a young girl who was highly personable and lovely. She had great suggestions on food. Great and quick service. The man who brought out the sizzling fajita plate was comical and great. Highly recommend! We all can't wait for our next moms night out.

I'd give 5s because we really love the food, but the online/takeout service has ALWAYS been extremely spotty due mainly to technical difficulties. I can't remember how many times our online orders have been wrong, to the point where we now just phone in our orders. Also, their payment processing system is always down. Disappointing to say the least. Maybe, someday, if/when they care to invest in better technology infrastructure, I'll return and give them another or two?

Apparently, they are moving to a new location next week! It'll be "right across the street" although I don't know what the new address is, exactly. We are huge fans and will brave the rush hour traffic to head up here. It's not big so definitely don't be bringing 20 people all at once....although I can't vouch for the new location moving forward. Taco Tuesdays are a big draw for us, I think they are only $1-2 a piece, just not steak and fish. But they don't skimp and still come loaded with pico de gallo, guac and other veggies. The shells aren't your typical corn you'd buy in the grocery store, they are very thick and hold up well when biting. We also love the elote, caution.....it is SPICAY!! Smothered in mayo and cayenne pepper although I don't think there is any of the typical cotija cheese. We were there recently, granted it was like 15 degrees outside but the restaurant was super cold and we had to keep our jackets on the entire time, that wasn't exactly fun. They also rarely have any horchata in their machine, I don't know if they run out and just don't replenish it or if it's not working. When I've ordered it, it has been super delicious. This is really a 4.5 star review because of some of the issues listed above that are minimal but bumped up to a full 5 stars because of how amazing the food has been. I see people complaining that delivery was "soggy". Just like a delivered pizza can be cold, that is bound to happen and in no way the restaurants fault. Stick with the tacos here and you can't go wrong.

Great find on Yelp! Parking on site is limited but not a deal breaker given the quality of food. The decor is fun/casual and our server was super friendly. We ordered the Sampler, Nachos, Elote (in a bowl), and a burrito with chorizo. The wings that came with the Sampler were SUPERB and our food was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be returning!

While the inside is very cute and our waitress was lovely, we were served stale nachos to start and then our food was very average (shrimp bowl and shrimp tacos). I had high hopes based on others' reviews, but I was very disappointed.

UM WOW. First time here for takeout tonight and DAMN we were impressed. This place runs quite the operation, Uber eats, phone ringing off the hook, walk ins and I'm pretty sure online orders? The guy and woman at the front were working quickly and effectively getting everyone's orders out. The few of us waiting for takeout were just doing the whole social distancing and chill movement. Also WTF to what looked like ONE guy in the kitchen cranking out these orders. PURE TALENT. We work in the industry and shit this was impressive. Great customer service, teamwork and food. Chicken burritos were fresh and HUGE. We are forever customers. See ya soon NexMex. Bravo!

I ordered through Door Dash and part of the order was 2 chips and salsa. Only there was no salsa in the delivery. I called the restaurant and they refused to send the salsa because I ordered through Door Dash. Door Dash refused to deliver the salsa. This is about the 4th time NexMex has left something out of a delivery. It will be the last order for me.

One of the "secrets" of business has to do with core competencies. Find something you're good at, and keep doing it. This place had a thing: great food. I'm saddened to say that on my last visit, the food has taken a turn to the worse. I was able to try an Al Pastor burrito, a steak taco salad, and their homemade hot sauces. While burritos are filled with all sorts of different ingredients, they are supposed to be a symphony. Everything is supposed to melodiously, shining through just enough. This burrito was however a cacophony. First, there was a disproportionately large amount of beans and rice, which were not at their freshest. This made the overall texture quite mushy. Additionally, worse than that it meant there was little room left for veggies and proteins. Second, the meat that was in there was not Al Pastor, there wasn't a hint of pineapple I could pick up on. Even if they made a mistake and put something else in there, the meat by itself wasn't great. It was on the bland side, and also had a mushy texture. It was as if this had been lying at the bottom of a hotel pan, since the day before. Third, you have the veggies: in the mush the only thing I could pick up on was some lettuce. As with everything else, while not wilted, no at its freshest. Finally, there's the last two nails in the coffin for this sad excuse for a burrito... I paid some extra for cheese and guacamole. I was able to find some cheese, but there was so little if I didn't see it, I wouldn't know it was there. Worse, the guacamole was nowhere to be found, I could neither see nor taste it. Then, there's the steak salad... This one was better than the burrito, but also not without its issues. The bottom was of the salad wasn't just moist, but wet. This is most likely from the lettuce, which was crunchy, but felt as if it just got out of a pool. If this were dressing that would be one thing, but it was water. Steak was fairly good, maybe just a hair overdone. Didn't have any issues with quantity here. Finally, the home-made hot sauces: With the exception of the red one, these were great. The red was supposed to be the hottest, but to my taste it was rather mild, and lacked a distinct flavor). The pineapple one was great, it had great heat, and just the right balance of acidity and sweetness. Finally, the tomatillo one was pleasant too, medium heat, and great flavor Finally, even though they have one of those dish heaters, it was quite chilly in here!

Came here from a recommendation of a friend and am very happy I did! The street corn was good and I could tell they boiled it in a broth rather than plain water. I had the shrimp burrito and could only finish half as it was incredibly filling and tasty. My friends ordered the tacos with both the soft and hard shells and found themselves full two out of three tacos in. We had to try to the churros while we were here which were serve nice and hot along with a side of Nutella. Glad to have found another local Mexican spot!

I live down the street from this place and if my waist line allowed this, this place would be my breakfast lunch and dinner. Excellent food, great service and overall just amazing. The people complaining are hilarious don't listen to them, "boo hoo this boo hoo that" get over yourselves, this is a go to place for great food this isn't Taco Bell, you're getting the real deal here ladies and gentlemen.

Finally, FINALLY this place is deserving of a good rating. When I visited right when they opened, none of the food tasted very authentic. Now? This is totally a different story. First of all, their new location is actually way better than I anticipated! It is now a place I might go visit and have a sit down meal, not just take out. The vibe is very casual and now that they have a bar, I would definitely go in with friends for Taco Tuesdays. The food is LEAGUES better than it was before, and I am a happy continuous customer. Their guac is tasty, I love their avocado sauce and their steak is seasoned very well! Ive tried their burritos and tacos and liked them both! I want to try their taco salads and deserts, but so far I am a fan! Now I'd recommend people try this place, and their hype is deserved.

I came here this past Monday around 1:30pm. There was only one person serving and bartending which wasn't a problem as we were the only diners there during our meal. We ordered the chips with queso and guacamole which were both very delicious! I would highly recommend. We ordered some for pick up the next day. The street corn was pretty good but I wish it had more cheese on it and a little less of the spice. It was also very difficult and messy to eat with it being served as a whole cob. I ended up cutting the kernels off to enjoy it. Lastly, I ordered the 3 tacos combo with the pork, steak, and shrimp. The shrimp was the best out of all of them. I would recommend this one. The other two were really dry. I was pretty disappointed with them as I read so many good reviews. My friend who also got a steak and chicken taco agreed that everything was pretty dry other than the shrimp taco. I would like to also mention that they have a pretty good selection of hard liquors at their bar so that is a plus for those that like to drink! Between me and my friend our whole bill came out to $24 which is really affordable. We'll probably be coming back to try our luck again or with other things they have.

Food is ok. Used to go there a couple of times a month until they screwed up one of my orders and took a 'pics or it didn't happen' stance 'for training purposes'. Bad enough they're slow as all get out there, but refusing to take the word of a regular customer without photo evidence on a first time complaint when *they* screwed up is just not good business practice. Happy to get my calorie bombs elsewhere.

Pretty solid. Birria was good, margaritas were sweet but decently strong. I'd come back but my gf would be hesitant. Above average Mexican food

We tried the combo plate tacos where you can pick and choose which tacos you want. I tried the chicken, swordfish, and shrimp that comes with rice and beans. All were good and freshly made. The tacos were good but even better with their house made pineapple hot sauce! The nacho fries were good - love this style of fries with all the fixings. The only con is they recently just opened and didnt seem to be too organized. There was 1 bartender/server so he had to manage making drinks, taking orders, and bring food to the tables so utensils were not provided until we've requested. Overall, food was good and we would be back.

The burritos are good. But the pricing is really annoying. I understand there is inflation, but this feels like price gouging. $15 for a small steak burrito is ridiculous. Worse yet, the pricing is way off on Yelp (for example, $2.80 for a taco on yelp but $4.50 in restaurant; $9.10 burrito on yelp). I couldn't access their website while traveling (bad connection). And the restaurant doesn't have their updated prices printed in the store. I won't be back and wouldn't have gone in the first place if I knew the high prices. I just wanted a small snack - and instead paid almost $33+ for 2 burritos and 1 churros order. Just please have the correct prices printed, at least in store. So buyers know ahead time.

3.5 but you cant do that on yelp so I will round up . Not bad for a American-Mexican food! Fried burrito was great, quesadilla was really good and they definitely give you your moneys worth when it comes to filling (almost too much). Tacos were also very good and all of the salsas that came with were surprisingly good. Not spicy at all however...even the "spicy" salsa was at best a comparable to something like crystal or tobasco. (minus the vinegar) They really could improve their chips though.... slightly stale and on the thicker side. We got our food at 7 pm on a Tuesday so it wasn't exactly off hours. They were horrible but could have been better. Their queso however was fucking terrible. I now know why its so cheap. It honestly tastes like canned fake yellow cheese with canned tomato and chiles added in. I dont really understand why they even offer this on their menu, they arent making tons of money off of it and it tastes terrible. Fix your queso.

Went here today for the first time to try their breakfast brunch. The food was absolutely wonderful, plentiful and our server was extremely attentive and friendly. These are the only things I would criticize and they're very minor: - The music was a bit too loud and there was another source being played in another part of the restaurant which had to compete with the first source; a bit annoying. - One of the dishes that was ordered, Breakfast Burrito, was sprinkled with cilantro. I suggested to the waiter that they either point that out in the description of the dish or the server to ask a customer if they want that included on their food. - No sugar on the table for coffee and no artificial sweetener offered at all. - No cream for coffee, only milk. The coffee is wonderfully strong (and delicious) but with only milk, you're unable to calm the strength or smooth out the texture. No spoons included with set-ups. As I said, these criticisms are very minor and should not deter you from choosing this establishment. The quality and quantity of the food and attentiveness of the staff far outweigh the minor criticism's I have. We cannot wait to come back.

Food was just okay. The food lacked flavor. Guacamole needed salt and the rice and beans were lacking seasoning as well.

I don't drink. I have enough ulcers in my stomach to have my own golf course. So, generally, I don't like "Mexican food". Didn't go there on purpose. Was looking for someplace else, and thought this place wasit. All that notwithstanding.... The bartender was AMAZING. Friendly. genuine. Just a real human being. And a good one, too. The atmosphere was FANTASTIC. One other huge party there. Bunch of barely-legal young ladies. being young and having fun. And there was me. The guy that doesn't drink and didn't go there on purpose. And they wre super nice....the bartender AND the huge partying other party. Didn't make me feel awkward. Made me feel welcome and accepted. Let me be but let me feel like I could do mroe than be if I wanted to. It was just a really good experience on every level.

Cute little eatery with great food. Restaurant is VERY clean and COVID guideline set up is perfect. Staffs are very nice and pleasant. We started off with chips & queso. Chips could've been fresh. Queso sauce was SO good. Street corn was incredibly fresh, crisp and very tasty all in one. I could've eaten a dozen of them. Need to know where they get their corn on the cob. My daughter don't eat meat so she got their beyond meat Enchiladas stuffed with the usual fillings. It was crispy and delicious enough for two people. I got one of their burrito bowls with some type of spicy pineapple sauce on the side that's out of this world. Prices are very reasonable. I definitely will go back!!!

Great authentic Mexican food served by super nice people. The Draft Beer list is A+ - the place is very cool with food served from the side of a food truck built into the wall. Chimichangas, enchiladas burritos you name it. Fantastic salsa, pico de Gallo, etc. I reroute myself every time I travel from Boston to Maine - only a short sidetrack and well worth it.

I had bee wanting to try NexMex Thing for a while and finally stopped in with my daughter over the weekend. We ordered the chips and queso (which never came and our waiter brought chips and salsa instead), the nacho fries, beef tacos on kid menu and I got chicken enchiladas. The fries and chips were good and the kid meal taco was as expected. The enchilada was okay - I would say stick to the fried food and street food here. The art and decor was cool and I could see myself really liking this place if I were in my 20s. Seems like they have some growing adjustments to make but overall a decent bite with my daughter.

Atmosphere: First time coming, sort of came on a whim. Although I have heard some people talk about it. There was of us, we walk in and there are 6 people, not very busy, could be the time of day or just the establishment itself. Decor seems forced, sort of blah if you will. Menu: Not huge. Simple. Anyone who eats Mexican food, pretty standard options that you would be familiar with, or so you think. I'll get to that later. Food: To start menu says "first chips n salsa on us." $3 after, say what? So first batch is cold chips, decent salsa. 2nd batch was hot, so if I get a 2nd batch I get them hot just not the first? Guacamole was nothing special, got that with the 2nd batch of chips. Now for meals, what was ordered was a chi1cken quesadilla, a pork quesadilla and a starter of 3 mini chimis with ground meat as a meal.  So I will start with the quesadilla's because those are a pretty2 common item that people order. The quesadilla was a decent size, however upon it being opened to add sauce, my first thought was "that's it?" Where is the rest of the meat? This was implied to both the pork and chicken. Definitely could have had more meat. They came with rice and beans, rice was not good and the beans tasted as if they had been sitting out for quite sometime. Just dry, cold and little flavor. If you didn't get the quesadilla right, well there is always hope with the rice and beans? Not all. Now to the mini chimis. So keep in my mind I was expecting 3 mini sized chimichangas with queso, now if you have had Mexican food before as I have, you think of a chimichanga with queso, as in a deep fried burrito with white queso sauce drizzled on top and or covered. I have never encountered a chimichanga without WHITE queso. What I got instead was 3 egg rolls that were cut all fancy at an angle with a small bowl in the middle which seemed to be nothing other than tostitos salsa con queso. So when it was set in front of me, I was quite taken aback as I had no idea what was in front of me, I thought I was brought the wrong thing. So I said I'm going to at least try it...this was the furthest thing from a chimichanga on all levels. So I told the server that this was not what I envisioned when I ordered mini chimis. I said chimichangas always have had a white queso. She said we don't have the white cheese stuff. So I told her I no longer wanted the food as it was not what the menu read nor what a chimichanga is/should be. In closing. If you want, warm endless chips and salsa, if you want meat filled quesadilla's or a chimichanga whether it be mini or full sized with white queso sauce, this is definitely not the the place for you. The name certainly should not be the NexMex thing, it is far from that, perhaps it should be called the LessMex thing.

First time coming here, getting take out. The staff were courteous and service was wicked fast kid. The carnitas burrito was pretty good, pork was tender and flavorful but the rest of the components of the burrito were a little bland, not what you expect with a burrito. I would probably come back, it was still good and there's limited options in my area. I will say that their selection of sauces are great, and I was intrigued by the Zombie Blood. It was a salsa verde hot sauce, it packed some nice heat and was very flavorful. I want to try all the hot sauces on these burritos, now those were what was so clutch for me.

Great place, Great food, and Great staff !! My son is a picky eater and I would always order a certain Burrito, one night I happen to go in and one of the staff said to me instead of paying so much more just order a regular Burrito with the Chicken and Fries in it !! Now that's what you want to hear from the staff at a restaurant, them trying to help you save money !! Definitely saves me $2 every time I go there now which is frequent !!!

we went there last night and was really impressed with the decor and excited about the food because my boyfriend had had a quesadilla that before and it was really good. My boyfriend said chicken quesadilla and when we get home it's in just tin foil and find out it's only cheese with some vegetables in it. I called right away and the guys basically like sorry nothing I can do about it and hangs up and when I call him back today it's the same guy who apparently is the manager who said sorry there's nothing we can do about it people say we mess up the orders but we didn't and I'll look into it. When I say how are you going to look into it and get back to me because I didn't give you my number he says oh I have your number he's like it's fine I'll look into it and that's it nothing I can do right now. Just say I'll never be back

An awesome addition to Downtown Peabody! I ordered takeout---2 steak tacos, chips and guac, and the churros. Steak tacos were delicious--I loved the cilantro sauce and the meat was tender. The guac was just okay---a bit watery which was disappointing but the chips were fresh, warm, and perfectly salted! Churros came with an excellent chocolate sauce---definitely recommend. I was highly impressed by the interior of this place---would definitely come back and grab a table or a seat at the bar. Looking forward to going back soon!

Every time I've come here, the food has been amazing! It's a fun and trendy atmosphere with a street taco truck vibe, with local craft beer. Also, doesn't break the wallet, one of our favorites!

Man I love this place. The food is consistently fresh, well seasoned and well...good. Having lived in Texas for several years, the bar for acceptable Mexican food is kinda high (with low expectations). The steak quesadillas are a favorite in the menu. Big enough to share with an app for a nice lunch for two. Great drink and cool vibe. I like that the carry out is right at the front door. Check it out. You won't be disappointed.

Ordered takeout on taco tuesday! First time tryin them out and they were really good! They have 4 kind of tacos so we ordered 2 of each kind. Downside is the taco shell itself fell apart immediately when I pulled it up because it obviously got soggy on the 3 min trip home. But my suggestion would be to have individual wrap under each taco. I would rate the tacos as #1 Beef #2Chicken #3 Fish (tomato-ey and dry) #4 Pork Definitely will go back next Tuesday for the beef ones and maybe try another item!
