Tried for the first time tonight! Was so so delicious! It's hard to find a true, good, authentic Mexican spot around here and this is the one. Can't wait to come back to try more! Huge menu and so many options, great prices. Thank you Don Taco!

These were some of the best tacos I’ve ever had! I tried the shredded chicken, al pastor, and carne asada—each one was delicious, but the carne asada stood out as my favorite. The sauces were excellent, adding the perfect touch of flavor to every bite. Great service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere made the experience even better.

Was driving around looking for some lunch today. I apologize to the truck behind me as I spotted this place on the right and turned fast without my signal. I left with 33.00 worth of the MOST delicious lunch for my co-worker and myself and had the nicest conversation with the owner. It was a spectacular meal. The flavor was so good. Not salty. Not spicy. I loved their variety of salsas. I left with a couple to try and loved them all. I will definitely go back more frequently than I should and will spread the word. Enjoy! Please try this place. They also have outdoor dining seats!

Great taco spot! My husband got the birria tacos and they were amazing, great flavor and sauce they have a little sauce bar with spicy and mild options that you can dish out as much as you need. The green and red sauces were kind of spicy but still had a lot of good flavor. I got the plain nachos and tres leches cake, the nachos were so-so, good flavor but without beans or meat they’re pretty basic but still really good. The tres leches was amazing, not too soggy, great flavor. The service was phenomenal, we sat outside and the order taker was very attentive to us and he even chatted to us about babies since we had our newborn sleeping beside our table. The food came out super quick and he delivered and collected our plates. It’s a small restaurant but has plenty of seating inside and out and since it’s surrounded by mostly industrial businesses it’s very quiet in the neighborhood. We went during the day but they had large umbrellas to sit under but I wish we came at night because there is a lot of twinkle lights that I’m sure create such a lovely atmosphere at night. Great experience overall, highly recommend.

Was in the neighborhood the day before and noticed it. Had to stop in after reading the reviews, and indeed, amazing tacos! My favorite was the fish taco on specials. The man who took my order was very friendly and helpful and the service was very quick. Will definitely be going back for my next taco fix.
