Amazing Mexican spot in Daphne! Found them online and was intrigued by the photos and reviews, so…read morewe decided to check it out. Upon arriving we noticed the big parking lot, good location, and when we walked in we were greeted immediately. Inside was nicely decorated, dimly lit, and clean. We promptly got sat on a Sunday afternoon, and quickly got served water, got our drink orders, and food orders put in. The brunch menu is from 12-3, with mimosas and bloody Maria's. The bloody was really nice - could tell it had tequila! Old fashion was nice not overly Smokey. Onto the food, the tamales were some of the best I've had. They were HUGE. They came with birria, great consume, flavorful poblano rice, delicious poblano and corn cream (something of that nature) was so creamy and was GREAT. I couldn't believe how hot and fresh everything was. It was some of the best Mexican I've had. My husband enjoyed his chicken as well - it was tender and juicy, good char on the pineapple too. The portions were huge and we didn't eat it all. Good thing we didn't, the chef gave us complimentary dessert (ice cream because we're gluten free)! It was our first time and we'd love to go back. Everything looked and sounded great. Good margarita options, the flight was ordered by the table next to us! The overall cost for us two, although not the worst, but definitely not a cheap brunch was $110 with tip. Hot sauce was $2.50 on the side. A nice treat with friendly staff and good food, but not if you're looking to save some money.

We visited Tulum for an early dinner to celebrate my husband's birthday after hearing from several…read morepeople that it was a place you simply had to experience. The ambiance absolutely lived up to the hype. It's beautiful, upscale, and has a very romantic atmosphere that makes it feel special from the moment you walk in. We ordered the Maui tacos and the carnitas tacos. Both were delicious, generously portioned, and filling enough that I ended up bringing one taco home. The food was fresh and flavorful, although my taste buds lean more toward the bold Sonoran-style flavors I grew up enjoying. The salsa was sweeter than I expected, and the chips were made from tostada shells rather than traditional tortilla chips, which felt a little unusual and wasn't my favorite. At around $22 per taco plate, it felt a bit pricey for an early afternoon meal, but the portions were generous and we certainly didn't leave hungry. The highlight of the evening was the birthday surprise. Our waitress coordinated a birthday ice cream dessert complete with a sparkler and singing. She completely caught my husband off guard and helped make his birthday celebration extra memorable. For the atmosphere and special experience alone, Tulum is worth a visit.

Updated Review: 2/5/26…read more The last 4 times we've ordered from Olgy's food truck there has been less meat, and lots of fat in the quesabirrias, making them inedible for me to eat. Since the last time we have not been back, 90% of my tacos was fat and only very little meat, which is sad because this use to be a multiple weekly place to eat for us.

Now this isn't Olgy's Food Truck's fault. That's on Grubhub, but what happened after was a bit ridiculous. I replaced the order about 45 minutes later. Same items from the previous cart. I go to the restaurant to pick up the food from the second order and they refused to remake it and insisted I take the one from the first order. The food was sitting out for over an hour at this point. Ultimately this is an issue with Grubhub, but they were perfectly fine with giving me old food. That has to be some sort of health code violation. This was unfortunate as I've really enjoyed the food here but this was ridiculous to think it is acceptable to leave food out for an hour and still take it like it's nothing. I will not be coming back here. If you're placing your orders here, beware they may try to sell you old food that has been sitting for an unknown amount of time.

The food here, though, was good. One of the things I've noticed out here in the South and on the East Coast, complimentary chips and salsa are not always to be expected. They do, however, start you off with them here! The server was attentive and friendly and eager to provide anything that would make the meal better. The place is decorated very nicely, with lots of local artwork, and it's very clean making it a pleasure to dine in. I had Chile relleno and a pork tamal, one of the kids had a burrito and one had an enchilada, and my wife tried their fajitas. Nothing was outrageously awesome, but everything was good, especially for the area. The only food I've found that is better so far are street tacos on the other side of town. Chances are good that we'll be back when we're in the area.

Olgy's bought this restaurant. Now it's called "El Gordos by Pedro & Olgy's"…read more Says so right on the building. I Got the "First Time Review" on this restaurant. I posted my review & it said it was the "FTR" and then a few days later it disappeared & a fake account is the first review, which now yelp has changed three times. I been coming to this restaurant for years & I have been going to Olgy's for years. Now that Olgy's has bought this restaurant, we can get the same Olgy's menu items as the old location that I used to go to. I said for years Olgy's was the best Mexican in Pensacola, you can see all the photos I have posted there for the past several years. They are the only Mexican Restaurant in Pensacola that hand makes their own corn tortillias & makes Fresh "Oysters con ceviche." Now, they make them here at "El Gordos" just like they did at "Olgy's." Olgy's was my favorite Mexican Restaurant for YEARS bc they make everything from scratch including the local shrimp ceviche, which is the best I have ever had. They also make the best Fresh oysters on the half shell topped with their locally sourced shrimp in their Ceviche recipe. Oysters are my favorite food & their Oysters on the half shell with their locally sourced shrimp Ceviche is moi fave Oyster dish of all time. Sir Hubbers also. OuiOui :)... The old location of Olgy's was too small & not good for the Gringos, so no one ever went there and yelped except me. Now, that Olgy's has bought this Restaurant & has had it fully remodeled, the interior designed by a professional designer, it's completely gorgeous inside & out, with the same amazing food as Olgy's always had. That's called "a triple threat." NOW, bc of the remodel, it's in my top 3 Best Mexican Restaurants in America. So I have indeed been coming here for years, and I have been saying this is my favorite mexican food for years. And I indeed wrote the First Time Review that was taken from me. STILL, "El Gordo's" is the ONLY PLACE that makes hand made corn tortilla's, Fresh Oysters con ceviche, & fresh shrimp tacos, in a gorgeous professionally designed restaurant, with a full bar, excellent service & plenty of parking. Whoever still thinks the taco truck behind the gas station in Pensacola that serves commercially made tortillas is better, I got some beach front property in Arizona I would like to sell ya. In the meantime, you can drool over me "El Gordo's Mexican Grill" photos while I wear a hole in my favorite booth. You can take away my FTR but you can't stop me from stuffing my pie hole here daily. And EVERY DAY is taco day at El Gordos Mexican Grill. Just check out the daily specials on the board & Saturday & Sunday is "two for one" happy hour. Stuff that in your pie hole. Ole! Added to my "fave tacos lists" Moi "Fave oyster places list" Moi "Top 3 fave Mexican Restaurants in America lists." Highest Recommendations.

The salsa selection is delectable. The meats are amazing! The Al pastor con piña and campechano are my personal favorites. The folks working are polite, friendly, and efficient. This a very authentic taqueria located behind a shell station with outdoor seating under awnings. It is actually decorated nicely and gives patrons the feel that they're dining south of the border! There is absolutely no doubt in my mind... I'll be back!

I hate writing negative reviews, but I have to be honest about our experience…read more My family and I stopped here on our drive back to Houston after our Disney World vacation. We were getting gas at the Shell station and noticed the food truck was extremely busy. I looked them up on Instagram, saw all the great reviews, and got really excited to try the tacos. Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. I ordered five tacos with flour tortillas and paid the extra charge, but only two of them were actually made with flour tortillas. I also requested no cheese on two tacos, yet they still came with cheese. I also ordered a chicken tastodo. The biggest disappointment was the chicken. It was extremely dry and had almost no flavor. I honestly couldn't finish it. I'm still hungry because it just wasn't enjoyable. If I had eaten there instead of taking the food to go, I would have taken it back. To be fair, my husband ordered the beef tacos on flour tortillas and really enjoyed them. My daughter also liked her beef burrito, so it wasn't a complete miss for everyone. Based on my experience, I would not recommend the chicken. Maybe we caught them on an off day, but ours was dry, bland, and not worth the money. I was also disappointed that we paid extra for flour tortillas and didn't receive what we ordered. The atmosphere is outdoors with music... nice casual seating. I had such high expectations after seeing all the hype, but unfortunately, this visit did not live up to it.

It tasted like it came directly outside the bag and didn't even touch the grill. The burrito had nothing but meat in it. The California burrito was not it. The only California thing about it was the 3 slices of avocado thrown on it. The queso on top should have never even touched a burrito. The service was good and the food taste was alright but that's the only nice thing I gotta say.

Nobody is born a Professional Taco Connoisseur. You're made, usually somewhere off a highway,…read moresomewhere ugly, somewhere you weren't planning to stop. I rolled into Florida hungry, running on fumes, and pulled over at a taqueria that had exactly zero interest in impressing me from the parking lot. Which is, of course, always a good sign. The service was quick. The people were kind. The place was clean, and I say that as someone who has knowingly eaten tacos in questionable places. The menu was unapologetically Mexican, but it wouldn't scare off anyone who's discovering it for the first time. We got carne asada tacos. A pork tamale. A torta Hawaiiana. All of it landed well above the line, but the tamale. That tamale might have been the best I've ever had, and I don't say that lightly. Masa that knew what it was doing. And the salsa bar wasn't an afterthought; it was an invitation to escalate things, and we accepted. Stop by and enjoy the tacos here, you won't regret it.

Taqueria Mi Gent has all the traditional Mexican dishes and did I mention all fresh ingredients? I've been to many taquerias and Mi Gente is one of the great ones. Any taqueria that embraces a fresh salsa bar is where it's at. Several types of salsas with varying heat and flavor levels compliments each dish perfectly. Generous portions and reasonable prices also keep your belly full and won't hurt your wallet. Highly recommend Taqueria Mi Gente. I bought a burrito to catch a flight and was delicious at 30,000 while watching a movie headed home. This is my new spot and heading back to Florida soon. Service was great and very patient in answering questions about the menu or anything else you want to know about their delicious food. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!
