    Chorizo burrito
    Elle M.

    Great tacos! Well worth a visit if you're in the area. The food is well-priced, quick to come out, and delicious. I tried the chicken tamales, six of the street tacos, and the chorizo burrito. The chorizo burrito was the weakest--a bit on the salty side--but everything else was great. The tamales weren't dry at all and had the perfect ratio of filling to masa. It was a special, so it may not be there all the time, but it's worth getting if it's available. The street tacos were also awesome; my favorite had to be the carnitas. Crispy, flavorful, juicy, so good--especially with the salsas. Keep in mind this is more of a take-out joint than anything else. If you go heavy on the limes, ask for more from the beginning. They don't provide water, so bring your own or plan to get a drink there. Hopefully the Yelp listing will change, but the name of the place has changed to Cinco de Mayo Taqueria.

    No frizzle frazzle here. Just a nice authentic restaurant that has seating or to go and offers fresh food. I used to go to the l Martin city taqueria a lot but I felt the quality had changed and this place is a serious contender They have someone at the food booth and the service counter for payment and you can either wait or have a seat to enjoy some freshly made tacos. It took a little bit of time with a party of three but I felt good that our food wasn't rushed. It came out fresh, hot, and delicious. Prices were fair and the staff was courteous. It was also very busy but everything about the environment was organized. There were no prices on drinks, snacks, or ice cream and no itemized receipt which would be appreciated, but overall it was a pleasant experience and the quality of the food also makes it worth it. I have come here many times and will continue to do so.

    Authentic street tacos 9/10 love them! Meat was good and could have just used more seasoning to make it perfect. Burrito is made with refried beans and for me that's all I could taste. Also I usually make two meals out of a burrito but not here, it's more medium size. Medium salsa was tasty and tomatillo based. Yum! Market has tables for eating-in scattered between the shelves and aisles in the market, has a funky feel to it. Staff was quick and pleasant. Not much parking... more of a to-go place.

    Found this hidden gem leaving the DMC. Food was flavorful and made fresh to order. I'm going back next Tuesday lol

    I had 2 carne asada and 2 carnitas.

    Same food but more expensive. Food was cold and the workers seemed annoyed. It wasn't busy at all

    Best tacos in the area, maybe even the city. Fast, delicious, decently priced. Grocery store it's in is the best. So many options.

    The tamales are to die for. I couldn't find an actual tamale in Kansas City anywhere but here it was the whole time!

Fritz's takes a blue ribbon for its $3 made and smoked in-house hot dog. Free sauerkraut, mustard, Dijon, BBQ sauce, and ketchup are available at the condiment table and other toppings are available for purchase, I added jalapeños and slivered onions for $1. A masterpiece on a soft but durable bun. I also bought a $5 pint of sausage "burnt ends" that I ate plain and mixed into a scrambled egg dish. The $8 whole smoked chicken was my wife and I's favorite chicken we've ever had. I'm sad that in Fritz's has been in operation 99 years and that I have never been in before this weekend. If you buy rotisserie chickens from the store, stop it and head to Fritz's.

While during most of the year, they do sell lunch, that's just not why most people go to Fritz's. They're renowned for their smoked meats. Around holidays they sell smoked turkeys, gravy, and- most importantly- their 3 sausage stuffing, which is a must for our holiday meals. It is delicious! It can get busy some mornings with people picking up, but I always see people getting helped fast, the line goes quickly. Pro tip: you don't have to be there right in the morning. Wait a couple hours and come in, you'll be fine. Year round, we're a fan of their breakfast burrito mix of meats- just cook it up with eggs and you have yourself a filling meal. Then there's the dog bones.... Altogether, this is a simple and unassuming place, a bit old fashioned, but very much solid.

I also got some of the hot chicken for lunch, fun crackers for another party and a snack mix too. They also have a liquor store next door that is combined with the meat market.

It's quite small, but I'm eager to go back and check out more things, especially as we get closer to holidays (and PIE, because they had a lot of pies that looked very promising). I ended up just grabbing a hot sandwich combo from the back: burnt ends, spicy sauce with tomato/cucumber salad as my side and it comes with a can of pop. Everyone was SO friendly! I think every employee in the store might have said hello at least once haha. It wasn't just to me; they were friendly to everyone. There was a ton of meat on the sandwich and the sandwich was good. Their standard BBQ sauce that the meat is lightly dressed in is maybe not my favorite I've ever had. It had maybe a fruity flavor to it that wasn't my favorite. The spicy sauce doesn't taste that much different, but it does pack a bit of a punch. Now if you eat raging spicy things all the time, you'll be fine, but if you're not into spice, you probably will think it's pretty spicy. I really loved that cucumber salad. As a side, it was a huge portion and I liked how the pieces were nice and chunky. I'll definitely be back and try some other things and have a closer look around. I also signed up for their emails so I'll get their ads.
