    a bag of tacos and a bottle of ketchup
    Lauren G.

    One of our top 3 taco stops in the live oak universal area. I like that the eggs are cooked just right. My least favorite kind of tacos have dry eggs and that's not something you need to worry about here. We enjoy the green salsa over the red. "I'm from San Antonio of course I know what taco it is just by feeling the foil."

    Burrito

    Came here for the first time around lunch and I'm glad I did. I pass by this place all the time and figured I'd give it a try. I was craving a good bean and cheese taco, Bennys SLAPS!! So good! The tortilla is so delicious, bang for your buck. I also got the cheese enchiladas with two tamales. So much food for under $11?!? My fiancé got the burrito and he devoured all of it. We will definitely be coming back, food is really good. Tables could have been cleaner but staff was welcoming and friendly and the food came out rather fast. 5 stars from me. We'll be back

    Pretty good breakfast tacos. Fresh and hot even around lunch time. Friendly quick drive through service. Haven't been inside yet. Seems like a typical taco house in there.

    I'll give them 2 stars but only because of the food. I placed a rather large order for a school as I've done before, but this time, was NOT given the courtesy of a tax exempt purchase, nor my military discount. The new manager, whoever she is, can use some training. Will not be returning and cannot recommend this location.

    Breakfast was superb. Real home made flour tortillas. The Barbacoca was excellent! The service was great, social distance and the restaurant decor was beautiful. I highly recommend this restaurant, the Tacos are superb.

    Bacon egg mix plate

    I ordered 3 bacon egg mix plates and a ham/egg plate w/ pork cop. I got home and this plate literally has minimal bacon. The pork chop was cut up about 1/4 cup of meat. Have some pride in what you serve and do not cheat the customer.

    My go-to breakfast taco stop! Cheaper than cheap with a huge menu. I just love their 99 cent bean and cheese tacos, yummm. They're 99 cents all day!!!Their beans are great and gotta love the tortillas! I love getting them hot with melted cheese, though sometimes when I get them, the cheese is shredded and kinda cold. I recommend popping them the microwave to get some of that ooey-gooey cheese! I've gotten their carne asada mini tacos and they were pretty good. The meat was kind of tough but everything else was good! They also offer military discount, yay. Service is always friendly and speedy. The drive thru always seems full so don't be afraid to pop inside to make a to-go order!

    The food took a really long time and it was just ok. The salsa and chips were just ok. The tacos were super greasy.

When we arrived we were seated quickly and the staff was very nice. It wasn't very crowded and therefore it was a bit quiet. The chips and salsa were amazing! The salsa had the perfect amount of spice. The fajitas came out and I was like "now these are fajitas". It was super excited and couldn't wait to dig in. They tasted really good and the corn tortillas were so much better than that other location. I have to admit that I am still on the hunt for amazing fajitas, however these are definitely better than my last ones and I look forward to returning and trying out other menu items. The only downfall was the blinds. Yeah, I get it and they are just blinds, however they were just so dirty and it distracted from the whole experience. Cleanliness is important.

Friendly, attentive, and very fast from start to finish. The food was okay. Nothing I'd object to, but also not at the top of my list. It satisfied the hunger without standing out. That's what keeps it at four stars for me: great service and a smooth experience, very affordable, with food that's solid but not memorable.

I pulled up my trusty Yelp app and we decided to swing in and give this place a try. Our first impression was positive--the restaurant was clean, and while the menu is fairly small, it includes all the classic items you'd expect from a taco shop. We ordered a variety of tacos and didn't have to wait long at all, maybe around 10 minutes. The tacos were so good. I honestly don't think there was a single one we didn't enjoy. My husband and I both agreed everything was cooked perfectly and the flavors were spot on. This is definitely one of those places we'll be coming back to. There are quite a few taco spots in the area, but I highly recommend giving Los Tapatios a try if you're looking for authentic, freshly made food.

The location was clean and you can smell the aroma of household cleaning products. It's nice to know that some restaurants take pride in the smell and cleanliness of their business. Moving on, the food was delicious and was impressed by the asada meat which had good seasoning and flavor. I had the burrito. Even though it was a little small, I would get it again. I look forward to coming back here and trying a different dish.

I ordered online for pickup, and my order was ready quickly. Everything was fresh, hot, and prepared just right when I picked it up. They also included plenty of hot sauces in the bag, which is always a bonus. I ordered a carne asada taco, an al pastor taco, and a quesabirria. The tacos were really good, with the al pastor being my favorite of the three. I didn't love the quesabirria, though. It was a little light on the meat and loaded with cheese. That said, it's probably more of a "me" issue since I'm not a huge fan of overly cheesy dishes. If my husband had been with me, he likely would have loved it because cheese is definitely his thing! Overall, I was very happy with the food and would definitely eat here again. I'll be back.

    Nobody is Perfect! There is good and bad when you visit …read more Went for breakfast and gonna say some great things and things to do a better job at . First things positive: Tortillas are super fresh. Hospitality was there in being polite and service . Hot sauce is very good!!! Now the negatives: It's like a morgue inside - no TVs or music on. No daily specials for breakfast tacos of value like many others do just down the street on Pat Booker. Yet most important is the horrible Coffee !!! Tasted old and zero flavor, hopefully it will change. $1.99 most breakfast tacos At the end of the day.... It could be better

Dead quiet when I walked in, but there were people eating quietly and it is very clean. I noticed they are operating on two portable/temporary air conditioners which seem to be permanent so it was slightly humid and not as cool as you'd expect.. but not bad. The owner/cashier/server was super nice and I was amazed how fast my order came out. I tried the Machacado taco (dried beef, eggs, tomatoes and jalapeño or maybe Serrano, not sure). It was served piping hot and the tortilla is heavenly. Like some other reviews said; the food quantity isn't huge but the prices are also very low. So it was just right for me. The flavor was just right and it was prepared perfectly. I'd come back and try other things but we need some La musica for atmosphere here. And watch out for the green sauce.. very spicy but also very good.
