    Order at counter and then they bring out the food to you. I downloaded the InKind app to get $15 off a bill of $45+ too! Small inside but it's a good vibe! It's a $5/taco kind of place but they load up the tacos with filling. The salsa that comes with the chips and salsa is also good. Service was good with the limited interactions you have. Overall would return!

    Great food and awesome lunch specials. I had a INKIND offer which brought me here and we loved it. Parking in the back is the best way and seating can be limited if they are busy. Customer service was great and food was flavored and a nice authentic taste.

    This has to be the best tacos in Orlando my favorite is the fish taco. It is perfectly breaded with the pickled onion and let's not forget about their fresh tortillas. I love grabbing food here first then going to next-door to the bars. The service is always great. They play great music. The inside is kind of small so only one big party could be accommodated, but it is perfect for any parties of four or less.

    Where did 10 years go? Back to update my review with another five stars! Some things have changed but the things that remain the same--the fish taco slaps, the chips and guac are undefeated, and Black Rooster will always be a gem in the Mills 50 area!

    Chicken Tinga
    Erica M.

    I was looking for a caterer who could make chicken Tinga for my birthday party as it is one of my favorite meals. Thanks to yelp able to find this business. I ordered the chicken Tinga as well as a quart of their rice. The chicken Tinga almost as good as the first time that I had it in Cabo. I've quite literally been chasing that flavor for the past four years and I finally found it. The chicken with Juicy well seasoned had the charm marks which added additional flavor. 10/10! Their cilantro lime rice was a seven out of 10 for me. The rice was cooked perfectly however it lacked a bit of salt. Once I added salt in a little bit of fresh lime juice, it was perfect. I look forward to visiting this restaurant and sitting down to try all of their other foods as well. But I will definitely be back for the chicken.!

    Ordered the guacamole, nachos, crispy fish taco, and shrimp taco. Perfect meal for two. Server was very attentive and friendly. One of the cooks even came out to ask if we needed more chips so he could drop some more in the fryer. Love the decorations and ambiance here!

    I've been coming here for years and it's consistently delicious. The tacos are on homemade corn tortillas, quite a few of them are gluten free. I always get the achiote pork, which is so tender and complimented nicely with picked onion, fresh cilantro and habenero salsa for a little zip. The chips are cross contaminated so I bring my own for the freshly made guac and gluten eating husband gets all the chips it comes with. We've been here a lot and will continue to come back. I really appreciate the separate boys and girls bathrooms!

    Honestly, this visit just didn't hit the same 5/5 level as my first time here. Since I never reviewed that initial experience (which I absolutely loved), I'm giving this one four stars with that in mind. The fish tacos are still possibly the best fish tacos I've ever had. They're incredibly flavorful and crispy, with beautiful toppings that pair perfectly with the fish. The service was excellent. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and genuinely seemed to care about both the guests and the restaurant itself. Seating inside is somewhat limited but still cozy, with great artwork throughout and a mix of booths and bar-top seating. I tried the nachos this time and was a bit underwhelmed, though they may just not be my thing. The tacos also tasted slightly less impressive than my first visit, and I can't quite pinpoint what was different. Maybe just a little less magic this time. That said, it's still absolutely top-tier food, and I'll definitely be back.

    Carne Asada
    Madison L.

    We came in for a bite to eat and had a great experience. Service was welcoming and fast. The food was fantastic. I got he carne asada taco and it was perfect. The meat was tender, the tortilla was hot and soft, and all the toppings were fresh. My boyfriend loved the brisket tacos. These are the best tacos in the area hands down. They were playing great music and the vibe was great.

    Maddy P.

    Wanted a bite to eat before going out, so we dropped by. Got the fish, pork and shrimp, chicken tinga, and steak tacos- they were all fantastic. We couldn't even share. Just the right spot. Perfect vibe, great food.

    My friend raved about this place so I came with him and after trying it, came back another time with him because it was so flavorful and filling. Great for a quick bite or late night snack.

    This little gem is in the Kia Center in Orlando, Fla. It's probably the wrong address, but it's all I could find. I got the Brisket Quesadillas. Absolutely yummy!!! A corn Quesadilla, filled with tender, flavorful brisket, cheese, with a Green Salsa. Topped with a Queso Fresca sauce. Outstanding!

    Medium Salsa
    Colton R.

    This place is fantastic. Been wanting to come here for a while and finally made the drive. We were NOT disappointed. We tried 6 tacos. The pork belly and Black Rooster Asada were the best and the chicken tinga was right behind those. Perfectly seasoned. Just the right amount of spice in each. I literally have no complaints. The plantains were also to die for. Lightly salted and perfectly sweet. We also had their medium salsa (green tomatillo) and it was citrusy, spicy, and blended to make it slightly thick.

This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.

Drinks were delicious and had a ton of fruit inside. My husband loved the mole chicken and the bean dip that comes with the chips was yummy. I, however, should have stuck with the beans. As a vegetarian, I decided to give some love to the soy taco option. It had some good reviews from 4-5 years back and I try to support creative veggie food when I can. I make tacos with a soy food product and they're delicious, so I was hopeful. I should have refrained. First of all, they looked pretty gross. Little pink lumps, not at all what I was expecting. I added cheese and ordered them in soft corn tortillas (they come in lettuce). It was so bland and had an unpleasant texture. But it also had this fake smell to it. I added salsa, thinking it would help. It did not. The pinto beans that came with it were also pretty bland. I barely ate one of the tacos. It's been a long time since I couldn't eat the food I ordered. They should stick to beans and rice. I also got a cheese enchilada from the à la carte menu. That was good! All in all, I might go back if I wanted a fruit salad in my margarita, but I will absolutely not order the soy tacos again!

It was delicious! Sweet and a mild kick. They provided a medium salsa and basket of chips. I really enjoyed the salsa since it is more minced and mildly salty but just the right amount of heat.Then we ordered the Queso which is not standard melted cheeses but a thick and stretchy cheese like when you do a mozzarella pull when it's piping hot. There were a few types of chips and pretzels. My friend and I shared the 4 tacos. She had 2 mushroom tacos and I had one grilled fish and one carne asada. The fish was tender and flaky. I wish I had asked for the flour tortilla since I'm not a big fan of corn tortilla but it was still flavorful. The carne asada was also good but not spectacular.
