    Chips salsa
    Brian B.

    This place is ******* good, 1.) They speak Spanish 2.) Chips are hot and fresh 3.) Salsa is good fresh and chunky 4.) Super friendly (especially if you speak Spanish) 4.) Service was quick 5.) Lived in Puerto Rico for 5 years and been to Mexico a few times, this place is good authentic and affordable. The decor is simple but that's how you know it's good, if it's too crazy inside you're paying a premium. Come here instead of the other place and thank me later. Tacos are 3.25 a piece I mean come on

    shrimp quesadilla

    saw authentic food on the billboard and had to come try it out. and oh boy does it live up to the title. so much flavor here. from the bright salsa to the freshly chopped cilantro mixed into the dish. the quesadillas were thick but held together perfectly. best pupusas I've had in years. and that slaw was to die for. fast and friendly service. will be back anytime I pick someone up from the airport or when i'm craving real spanish food (which is very hard to find in the midwest) el comal is a shining light

    Pleasantly surprised compared to other local Mexican restaurants around the Rock Road. (I live next to Acapulco). Idk whats in that green salsa but it was spicy and delicious! I ordered three different tacos, all meeting expectations, the shrimp was perfectly cooked and the al pastor sauce was exactly what I was hoping for. Indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff. Will be back!

    It was so incredible to visit a place serving Mexican and Honduran food. I got the fried chicken with green plantain chips and it was incredible. They gave us chips and salsa and the green salsa was to die for. The portion sizes are really big so I got two meals out of my order. The staff is incredibly sweet. I will be back to try their Mexican menu. As an Honduran I loved what I had and it reminded me of home. Would recommend 10/10!

    #BradyEats for more tasty Chef Jimmy makes some great stuff. Ask for his special burrito-fajita or the fish tacos Entree. Even if you order some street tacos or the queso fundito, you'll be happy you did.

    Came here on a winter Monday and it wasn't too busy and we got a table for two without a…read morereservation. I wasn't super hungry so we got chips and salsa and guacamole to share and my friend got the chicken fajita. The salsa comes with two different salsa options, both were a bit spicy. The guacamole was classic and came out with a cute serving spoon. They had lots of food options but it's a bit more expensive than most Mexican spots in the city. I think my friend was a little disappointed that there was an up charge to add vegetables to her fajita and the portion wasn't as big as she thought it might for a $20 plate, but it tasted good. Super nice service and cute on the inside. They have a back patio that's very big and heated. Street parking.

    What a fun place! Looked for a Mexican spot nearby and this popped up so off we went…read more Greeted outside by the hostess, we didn't have a reservation, but they seated us right away after asking inside or out. We chose inside and although they have a couple tables out front, I realized they have a super cute patio out back. Our server, Obed, was friendly and explained everything we needed to know as well as answering all the questions! He was great! I had eaten a big lunch, so I ordered a couple of sides, Poblano Rajas and Half-Smashed Black Beans no cotija. For the table, my daughter's ordered the Classic Queso, and Chips & Salsa Two-Ways. The Queso was good but those salsas? They were really great. The red was smokey, which I love and not a lot of places do, and the green was a spicy pineapple, I think, it was so good! There was a Handmade Limeade ordered and it was so refreshing! I enjoyed the sides I ordered; I tasted the Al Pastor Empanadas, delicious and more so with that green salsa - sweet and spicy! Great spot I am glad we tried. Would love to return for a pitcher of margaritas when I am not driving!

    I took my Kiddos to the Museum of Transportation and decided to stop here after we left the museum…read more I've been wanting to try the restaurant out after learning about it as one of an upcoming Yelp Elite Events. This location was very close to where we were. It was the perfect time to try it! Ambiance: I really love the esthetics of the restaurant. The floral arrangements in the front is very inviting and added a great touch. I also loved the covered outdoor seating areas available, along with the indoor option. We surprisingly opted to sit outside, because heat is not my friend. The industrial fan definitely helped! I felt like I was sitting on one of friend's veranda in the carribean Food: I really enjoyed the food. Tacos are a la carte. For appetizer we opted for the Trifecta which came with guac, queso, and rojo salsa. Let me just say, their happy hour deals are a great steal! Order: There are a couple different ways to order & pay. Use the traditional way of having the server take our order by raising the card "Lets Taco Buddha it," or by scanning the QR code and placing order yourself & pay online. At first, I started the online order because I felt like this would allow me more time to read the menu and order on my own terms. I ended up raising my card and having someone take my order despite having it all in my cart. Tacos are served "family style" comes out on the same platter. We opted for the Baja ( battered pallock) & The Jodhpur (marinated grilled chicken). The kiddos opted for the quesadillas and fried chicken taco. Everything was flavorful (with the exception of their hot/mild sauces, those were flavorless, however not necessary to add). Not going to lie, I made a joke to my mom about the food being served on a surgical tray or "doggy platter." LOL lol. Service: They use a team model. I saw multiple staff going throughout the restaurant checking on needs & refilling water pitchers. Everyone was really nice, they had small toys for children to play with at the table and it's always a plus when they strike up a conversation with my kiddos. Parking: We arrived shortly after 4pm and there were lots of spots available. By the time we were leaving, there were two cars waiting for spots. It is also located alongside a busy street, the restaurant did get packed for dinner on a weekday. Pricing: Prices does add up very pretty quickly, however 1 Taco can be very filling especially if you opted for appetizers. The only thing I would have changed is not to order my meal the same time as my appetizer. It came out almost together. I would have liked to enjoyed the appetizers prior to my entrée.

    Met up with some friends at Taco Buddha and absolutely loved the vibe and setup of the place.

First off, listen to your server when they tell you 2 tacos is enough! These tacos are LOADED. We thought we knew better and ordered 3 each anyway. No regrets though because they were ridiculously good. I ordered the Truth or Consequences, the McCausland, and the Nashville. I'd absolutely order all three again. The Nashville was really solid, but the Truth or Consequences and the McCausland are the real stars. Both are super unique and absolutely packed with flavor. I'll definitely be back to work my way through more of the menu. 100% love what they've got going on here.

I find myself going for lunch on nice spring and summer days cause the patio is awesome. I enjoy the pick two menu so I can get a salad and quesadilla or something but also appreciate the smaller family's offering. Wish it was open more of the winter because there is heat available but on cool or cold days it can be hit or miss. I also like some of the special menus including the happy hour offerings and brunch. Sometimes work through lunch or happy hour on the WiFi here quite conveniently. Sitting in the bar area is my go to when there off hours or solo as it usually means better service

Upon entering, the host wasn't particularly engaging. He briefly acknowledged us and led us to our table, but there wasn't much interaction. Fortunately, our server was the complete opposite--friendly, attentive, and quick to check on us throughout the meal. For lunch, my wife ordered the veggie fajitas, and I chose the chicken fajitas. Our food arrived in a little over 10 minutes, which was a reasonable wait time. The portion sizes appeared smaller than I remembered from previous visits. I'm not sure if this is typical of the lunch portions or if the restaurant has reduced serving sizes since our last visit, but I was expecting a bit more food for the price. That said, the food itself tasted very good. The fajitas were flavorful and arrived hot and fresh. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and appreciated the excellent service, although I would have liked to see larger portions.
