Come here for tacos and they never disappoint. I came for breakfast and just as I thought, good as hell! I love the service, the music and atmosphere. The agua de melón is so refreshing the chilaquiles are amazing🤩

Beautiful, clean, authentic Mexican restaurant near downtown Arlington and close to the stadiums. Friendly wait staff and great prices. The serving sizes are perfect. I'm totally satisfied and pleasantly stuffed!

Excellent brunch place- the tacos are great, but the brunch menu is amazing! The pancakes were so delicious and they have $15 Prosecco bottle, who can beat that? Best brunch place in the Arlington area. Will be back for sure.

I really like Tu Taco. The food is really good and I’d come back with some friends for the food. The place is alright and the service is okay. Not great. Just fine. You might get a drink refill. But seriously good food which is what matters the most. Just have realistic expectations about everything else. Give yourself a bit of time just in case.

Overall good experience. My fave was the morning combo. Glad that they have menudo every day not just weekends. Will not get the breakfast tacos again given their size for the price. Enjoyed the cafe de olla. There was one person taking orders and bringing to the table. Will return.

I ordered the Burrito Supremo with pastor meat for $10, and it was worth every penny. The portion was generous, the flavor was authentic, and the meat was perfectly seasoned. Great value, fast service, and a solid spot for real Mexican comfort food.

Nueva ubicación está súper y el sazón está bueno! Para el área de DFW , este lugar es recomenfab Soy mexicana - America de padres de la cd de México así que el sabor de la comida es muy importante para mi. Casi siempre pido el pozole verde de puerco está deli!!! En mi opinión le falta un poco de sal ( no soy salada) , pero es algo que es fácil de agregar. Alguna otras cosas que me gustan son las tortillas de harina (parecen echas a mano), los huevos rancheros están deliciosos , pastel de tres leche , y café de olla !!!

I'm not gonna lie the first time my husband decided to try this place I pulled up to an empty parking lot. I looked around as if where do you hit me. Once inside that place is nice and clean, customer service is A+ and the pastor tacos are delicous. They have seen us at least once a week since then., lol.. Do not killer the empty parking lot fool you!

The food and service was amazing! We had the Carne asada plate, I had the chicken fajitas came out sizzling. Then we even had queso fundido as an appetizer with fresh homemade corn tortillas and flour tortillas. The drinks were fresh I had the orange margarita it tasted like fresh orange juice. And my partner had the Paloma with Mezcal it was yummy too. It was so delicious we even got Barbacoa tacos and beef enchiladas to-go. Definitely would come back and recommend. It was a cozy space like a hole in the wall. Our waitress she was so nice as well.

What a gem! I stopped by mid-morning on a Thursday to grab a quick taco to-go while out running errands. There was a couple there and no one else. As soon as I walked in, I was surprised by how cute & cozy the decor was. The inside has obviously been redone since previous pictures. There is also a small bar area that I didn't get a picture of. It was so homey inside that I decided to eat inside and just slow down & enjoy it. You can order at the register or at their kiosk that I found easy to use. There are so many good choices for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I got the chips and white queso that was also served with a warm red salsa. Both were mild in spice level and very good. The chips are thick cut and seemed house made. So good!! I also got a bacon breakfast burrito that was stuffed with bacon & eggs in a fluffy flour tortilla. They also brought red & green hot sauces to the table. Both were good and definitely spicy so a tad worked for me. A great $7 well spent for a weekday brunch! I look forward to going back!

Passed by here tonight while in the South Arlington area. It didn't look busy and I didn't see any of the reviews prior but I'm wow'd by the menu variety & great prices first off. We ordered the appetizer of chips, guacamole & salsa - $7.99 was a bit much for the amount of guac but the chips are homemade n salsa was fresh and very mild. I ordered Pozole Verde with pork $9.99 and my daughter ordered Chicken Enchiladas (2) Rancheras plate w/rice & beans $8.99 and a fresh agua de pina - [also offered horchata]. We were both very happy with our entrees. The pozole was generous portion w/side of radishes & lettuce? (traditionally served w/cabbage). The enchi plate w rice & beans was tasty. There's a good amount of seating - booths & tables- and also a very small bar area with a few stools. I really like the fun Mexican cantina vibe the dining room gives and the music wasn't too loud. There's a small patio outside the bar area too. mendoza! Bathrooms are for 1. Very clean and friendly service. Overall, I liked it ALL! Definitely would like to come back to try breakfast and menudo!

Service is terrible. I ordered the same thing the day before at about the same time. I walk my dog there which they're usually pretty empty besides 1 person. But I came the next day ordered 40 mins before closing over the phone. They wouldn't open the door. Why take the order if y'all didn't want to serve? Then tbh the food was bland and the tacos are small. Very basic, any gas station could make their "breakfast tacos" but yet they're not filling. Overall not worth it. But the decor and patio is cute ig?

Me and a friend of mine went to Tu Taco when it was closer to Cooper St. before it moved up the road on Randol Mill closer to Collins. We both ordered food items and when the lady asked us what we wanted to drink, we both asked for a cup of water. I asked her why the price was to high and she responded that they have to charge for the cups of water. We both said forget it and never returned again.

On the positive side, I still love this new location. It is a very nice place to visit. The staff is always extremely kind. But today, ordering my favorite dish, Carnitas tacos, I was extremely disappointed to find that now they are simply using ground beef. It didn't taste right, and the texture was not at all what I expect. This goes without saying that a taco like that would never fly in Mexico. Ha ha. Anyone can go to Taco Bell or Taco Bueno and get pretty much the same thing minus the cilantro. I just won't ever order that again. :-(

We finally tried this small family business and can't believe we haven't been here! It is so authentically good and the young lady at the register is so nice and helpful. The horchata was so good and the Choco flan was so good too! The tacos were on point and so fresh and tasty!!! The place is very clean too! We will always support this place!

Stephen J.

Yelp
A fantastic spot to grab some seriously delicious food, all served with a side of smiles. The tacos are absolutely fire--packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned. And don't even get me started on the nachos! The chips are crispy, golden perfection, taking the whole dish to another level. If you're looking for a place that hits all the right notes, this is it!

the customer service was awful. I felt rushed and there was 2 other people in the restaurant. the food was mediocre. my husbands enchiladas were cold. my sons chicken fajita quesadilla were just basic no seasoned chicken. the sides servings were kid portioned. I gave it a 2 bc it has potential and the restaurant was cute had a weird smell.

Stopped here a couple times for dinner because I was craving tacos al pastor. The food is really good and they warned about the green va red salsa. I must admit that the green salsa was pretty spicy. And the red is more spicy if you like the burn. The food is good and people are friendly. I would recommend this place.

The new address is at 309 E Randol Mill Rd, Arlington, TX 76011 The torta of Pastor was great. The interior was renovated and is very cute. Easy to park. Their coffee was very good. We ordered a Cappuccino and a americano.

$7 worth of tacos in a burger box. Tiny tacos without much meat. Cheese-extra. Sour cream-extra. Bad attitude. Would not give me a glass of water. Insisting she only had bottled water. I will never go back

Had a pastor taco plate. Amazing! Authentic street tacos and decent rice and beans. Sauces were tasty, just not spicy. Service was fast and the inside is clean. Will be back again!

Service was horrible. Lady taking order was rude. Their tacos are bite size and everything comes with egg. I can't eat eggs and I couldn't build my own taco. Not worth the visit

Super friendly, and helpful, staff! 5 stars The food is meh...asada taco was bland and gristly. The red salsa is chili powder hot. 1 star The green salsa is good and fresh. 4 stars The chips were yummy, as was the salsa that came with them. 4 stars Prob won't be back as it is t worth the effort to park and walk in.

This place is under rated!!! Delicious food, great prices. I have never been inside but I have order from Ubereats more than once and definitely will continue to order from there. Great portions. Salsa is fantastic.

One of the best Pozoles I've had in a long time in the DFW area. They even provided avocado when asked. I really enjoyed the green pork pozole. A must try at a nice price. Perfect for Sunday morning.

I've only had takeout from here a few times, I've yet to eat inside. When you have to eat gluten free and you're in the fast-food-mood, you're likely to gravitate towards tacos! Especially when you can find a little spot like this that has a drive thru, great food, and a little personality. Crispy or soft, if my taco is in a corn tortilla I will eat it and love it. You can go crispy American style (or soft flour tortilla) with tomato and cheddar cheese and shredded lettuce, or you can go more classic street-taco style: soft corn tortillas, meat, onion, cilantro, and lime. I love both styles! But my ultimate love is the simple side of retried beans. I don't know why but they're so good here! Quick and kind service + great prices + drive thru street tacos and delicious Huaraches!

My wife and I eat here usually once a week. We prefer it to the full service Mexican (well, bland Tex-Mex) restaurants in north Arlington. The food has always been really good. Street tacos (real street tacos don't come with cheese and sour cream btw) properly dressed with onions and cilantro with limes on the side. Especially like the Pastor tacos. Gorditas and enchiladas are also really good. My wife says the Menudo is the best she's had...I'll take her word for it on that one! Their verde sauce is excellent, closest to what I used to get in Arizona I've found here. Service has been pretty good, occasionally it takes a little while (but nothing excessive) because food is made to order and they seem to be getting busier and busier lately.

I drive past this place on the way to work and always think about stopping. Today i did .....Well I paid too much for a 4 taco "combo." The food was good but not $8 for just tacos. Definitely won't go back . I can get the same quality for for less at Taco casa!

Always consistent! The picadillo is the best I've had and I'm from El Paso where picadillo is everywhere. Beans are really good too. The green salsa is so good I could drink it. Don't sleep on this place. No pix because I ate it up.

The worst service ever ! Ordered and paid , didn't get my drinks at the time I paid until I started to notice that the lady that had cash me out was giving the other people as they were ordering their drinks so I got up and told her that if I could get my drinks as well or If I had to wait to get my food . PATHETIC . WAITED AND WAITED FOR EVER FOR THE FOOD . They need employees upfront and in the back seriously , this is ridiculous! NEVER GOING BACK . They are opened a new location down the street I hope they get new people because the ones that work here suck.

The prices are really low (barely more expensive than Taco Bell, for so much better quality). Maybe the best valued fast food in Arlington. The pastor tacos are amazing (I go there at least once per week for these alone). Some of the other meats they use are pretty meh (lacking in spices compared to the pastor/what I would expect). The tacos seem to always come with a green sauce that's delicious. They seem to randomly include a container of red sauce that is super spicy (it's like pure crushed chili peppers, it's not tomato based). I like spicy food but don't really care for the flavor of the red sauce. Their breakfast tacos are nothing special, but good value. They come with tater tots if you get the combo, which was kind of unexpected. The drive through service is quite slow, and not super friendly (not rude, just kind of indifferent).

I used to be a regular here because it's very close to our house. My usual was soft tacos with fajitas and super nachos. After dieting for almost a year, I decided to get my usual on my cheat day and it was a real shock to find out how the food quality and portion has gone down. Tacos did not have anything on them. They used to have onions, cilantro and limes. Super nachos were about half the serving. Flavor is still good but this is my last time here.

This place was great! Menudo, tacos de barbacoa, carnitas and Tripas doradas were awesome! The service was also outstanding and the michelada is one of my husbands favorite so far in the area.

I've been a couple times, really good place, with some work I could get to giving this place a 5. The food to me is a bit expensive but the burger, torta and fries are really good. The restroom is always out of paper towels which I hate as a construction worker trying to wash my hands before I eat. Mostly it's just tacos, tortas and soups, they don't even have nachos. That said the food is very good.

They are still having a consistent quality affair with regards to their burritos. The constant turnover at the cash register does cause some problems with the drive-through and order accuracy, but pushing through that is worthwhile as you're going to enjoy the meal. By ordering the burrito supreme you get a choice of meat three of your favorite fillers and some delectable salsa. I've tried the steak the chicken The brisket and each and everyone of them has had a tour Mende sleep good flavor well seasoned with the right amount of heat and flavor. The pico de gallo is absolutely fresh and delicious as it is for all the other ingredients. As you look at the burrito you can see the size of it and add under seven dollars including tax well worth the price.

Called in an order of breakfast tacos today. Specifically asked for cheese on all of the tacos and said so twice. I go in to pick up the tacos. Cashed out. They don't accept Apple Pay FYI. But they do take debit/credit. Then I checked the tacos and found no cheese. I asked for some cheese explaining what happened and Gerardo S. (who I spoke with on the phone and in person) proceeded to charge me. I was appalled and said no thanks and walked out. Gerardo can stand to be more personable and customer oriented. The tacos were average. The tortillas tasted store bought. Moreover saw a photo on Yelp that showed 3 tacos for $3.75. Mind you that was a year ago. Now they are apparently $4.49. Anyways, I won't be coming here again.

I love it here... in fact this is probably what I'll be eating later today... tacos are the closest to authentic Mexican food... (Cali girl) no people, cheese is not supposed to have to be a main ingredient for great tacos... onions , cilantro and and good corn tortilla filled with perfectly seasoned meats is what I desire for my tacos and that's exactly what you get at Tu Taco...

So I am no taco expert by any means, but I will say that these are pretty decent! I LOVE that they have a drive thru if that makes up for anything! I hate getting out of the car when I have my lil man with me, so I live for me a drive thru, especially when it's taco time! I also am on a new agua fresca kick, and their pineapple is pretty good! They have lots of options for the taco lover, the only drawback is on combos, you can't mix and match tacos, so boo to that. However, just ordering another taco (with about 6 different meat options) isn't going to break your wallet. PS: three tacos to a combo. I'm sure I will be back at some point!

Tu Taco is one of the most consistent taco places that you will find in Arlington. My fellow Yelp friend, Aaron L., introduced me here and now I'm hooked! It's a simple and efficient place to grab some good food in a short amount of time. The drive-thru is a life saver when you're looking for something to grab and go (and they're open relatively late!) I've had both the crunchy and soft (corn) tacos, and they're really good. If you're torn among your meat choice, I highly recommend the carnitas due to the amount of flavor that you can snag in one bite. And always, always opt in for the salsas, onions, and cilantro! I've only had the tacos from here, but I know the menu also showcases some pretty appealing burritos, quesadillas, and enchiladas. The rice and beans are solid sides, so the number combos are a good way to get the most bang for your buck. A great place to grab a set of street tacos!

This place is good for a last minute Mexican taco stop. Could improve their customer service.Employees are shady and money hungry could charge you extra for packages of salt if they had the chance to.

Best Tacos in Arlington. i accidentally went here last night, greatest accident ever! I had the fajita, bisteck,and pastor tacos, definitely THE BEST pastor I've had in a long time, for those who don't know Pastor is not the same as Trompo tacos. Usually when i try pastor at other restaurants its just a meat with chile rojo kinda like a guisado on a tortilla, but not these!! the meat is incredible just like a pastor taco should be. my husband got the tomatillo enchiladas with rice and beans, the rice is 100% authentic!! the beans are like puerco beans, they have some spiciness to them absolutely amazing!! we are actually having late lunch here today again! so glad i found this place.

This place isn't that fantastic because the corn tortillas were not even fresh. Even the meat didn't taste good. This place is getting 2 stars only because the tacos are cheap for a $1.25 and the pork roast tacos tasted decent. Otherwise I've had way better tacos in the Arlington area.

Visited the new location this morning. Same poor attitudes from the staff as before. Of course they forgot my order. Everyone coming in after me were served 1st. I give up on this place.
