    Enchiladas

    Quick service and the food was good. TAKES CASH ONLY FYI. There is an atm in the building but definitely cheaper to come prepared

    a variety of tacos and salsa
    Linh T.

    CASH ONLY!! They have legit, great authentic tacos here. The food was different but in a good way and served on paper plates. They also sell beer and everything has to be ordered from the front. They don't come to your table, other than to bring you food. Don't expect any type of ambiance or anything fancy. Take our appears to be the preference for this establishment and it's all about the eatsssss!!

    Jarritos drinks.
    Derek S.

    Came in because I was looking for some late night food. Had never been here before but I'm really glad I did. Got a couple of steak burritos and Jarritas sodas. From the very first bite the steak was juicy and tasty. Whatever they seasoned it with was amazing. The rest of the burrito had beans and rice, lettuce, onion and tomato and mild green salsa. I literally enjoyed every bite and was disapointed it was gone. I will definitely be back for more. Absolutely lived the food and the service. I had asked if the steak meat was real fatty. They showed me some and offered to let me try some. I declined after seeing it but only because it looked really good and I just knew it wpuld be okay. They only accept cash but with how good there food is really who cares. In the attached photos I unrolled the burrito. They xome tightly rolled so this does not reflect how you get it. I dont just give 5 stars on a whim. If you see my other reviews I'm very critical. But this place earned it. Thanks!

    Carne Asada and al pastor tacos. Chicken tostada.

    Seriously guys, ONE of the best AUTHENTIC TACO places I've been to! It's one of those hole in the wall places with awesome food and great service! I ordered their al pastor and carne asada tacos! Oh my goodnessssss, meat was charred perfectly! Topped with fresh greens, give it a squeeze of lime, and squirt some salsa on there and you're in taco heaven! Haven't had a tostada in a while so I ordered their chicken tostada- my goodness was this loaded! Beans, cheese, sour cream, tomatoes, and chicken atop their large crunchy tostada - this order was loaded with texture and flavor!

    Al pastor torta (AMAZING)
    Jayla B.

    First off, most amazing torta! I had al pastor. Seriously, amazing bread and delicious meat. Great toppings, all in all a complete meal! Also had an awesome leguna Gordita! Bought some carne Asada tacos and chicken tostada for a friends birthday, she really really enjoyed it. Great great great food, and even nicer ladies who work the register/front. Have an amazing verde sauce also! It is CASH ONLY (which is usually a really great sign!) It's right in front/side of the Asian supermarket on 21st st West between Amidan area and broadway area. It's its own building. Tons of parking.

    Taco Combo: Carne Asada

    AUTHENTIC Mexican food. Good food and sweet ladies behind the counter. This is a CASH ONLY restaurant but an ATM is onsite. I only got a trio of carne asada tacos because I was passing through and decided to grab lunch. Two qualms: the outdoor ambiance of the restaurant is a little uninviting and unfortunately doesn't reflect the ethnic decor inside. Secondly, the restrooms do need some TLC and are very small.

    For all the cute name and colorful building suggests a kitschy taco nirvana, Mr. Taco provides only a pretty good taco experience, which is to say it's still a heck of a lot better than your Carlos O'Kelly's of the world. They have other things, but obviously you're going to want the taco with whatever variety of meat tickles your fancy. The small confines of the building means a bit of the magic goes away when you watch Mr. Taco take out refrigerated bags of the good stuff out of the fridge, stick it in the microwave to heat it up, and finish it on the grill. It still worked out pretty well for everything except the carnitas, which as I recall was a little dry. My main beef with Mr. Taco, though, is the way he dresses them, adding shredded cojita cheese and a too-healthy dollop of sour cream. When he asked me if I wanted it with everything, I didn't know he meant like this, and I ended up scraping most of the sour cream off. Of course, you can always just tell Mr. Taco to leave it off, which is my recommendation. At least the salsas weren't compromising - heavy and full of flavor from the whole dried chiles used to create it, though I probably should have gotten something to drink, as it was a hot day. Also, I had just gotten done with a particularly dehydrating run. Let's just say it wasn't a nice afternoon. But the tacos weren't bad! You can certainly find slightly better fare a little further south, but in the largely forgotten area of 25th and Arkansas, there's one man willing to stick it out for those who remain hungry and need a quick taco fix.

    The best tacos de carne asada in town, also the gorditas de carnitas are excellent. Only take cash unfortunately but definitely worth it.

    Great tasting tacos! Splurge for the onion bulbs, they'll give you a sweet crunch that's great with anything you're eating.
