A great little hole in the wall taco shop. There isn't much parking available but that's the only downside. Cashier was friendly and the restaurant was clean. Tuesday birra tacos were outstanding! I'd go back for sure. read more

Gilbertos Taco Shop - Quesadilla Supreme - Tacos Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Was in the mood for some authentic tacos and guac. My carne asada Tacos were decent, the guac is what disappointed me the most it basically was a puree of avocado more like a salsa. I wish I would have known that before paying $4 bucks for it. My friend ordered the birria tacos which we were told it's their most popular. It was brought out without the broth and when we told the girls they just laughed it out and didn't offer to compensate or anything just kinda blamed it off to the cook who served it that way. Don't think I'll be coming back :/ read more

Gilbertos Taco Shop - Chips and Guac ( You can see Birria tacos served without the Broth) :/ - Tacos Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Y'all I have never seen food that looked so delicious, but disappointed so much. I ordered the super fries added refried beans and pico de gallo & a caramel churro. The churro was OUTTA THIS WORLD sweet and crispy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. But these super fries were a different story. Let me break down the layout....fries, refried beans, pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole salsa, carne asada, shredded cheese, onions and cilantro. Sound delicious, right??? Hell even the photo I took looked top notch, but this was the MOST BLAND dish I've ever had from any Mexican restaurant minus (Rio Bravo). I despise wasting food that I've paid for, but this wasn't worth eating. My foodie spirit cried from disappointment. read more

GET IT. My husband and I just stared at each other while inhaling the churros. We ordered 2 but I wish we ordered 235 of them. 10/10 yummmm read more

Great food and even better service ,this is definitely a go to spot of mine ,clean,food was fresh and Elia was awesome,she needs a pay raise . read more

I've had birria tacos at other places but this was Best birria I've EVER HAD. No pictures because I ate the food immediately.

Still love this place. We have been back MANY times. Birras are out of this world great!! Seems to be my go to order. My husband still loves the Tripas and he got the green chili burrito not to long ago, it had a lil more rice than he would have liked but its still a good choice, great flavor always with everything. Churros...have to eat them there of course. If you didn't leave room for the churros, make a special trip another day. Just like donuts, its never as excellent as fresh. But they are worth the feeling of overeating they're so good. read more

Has the look of a proper Taqueria. Stopped by and ordered a ton of food. Carne asada tacos, carnitas, polo asado and three burritos. Gave us plastic ware, napkins and lots of sauces without even asking. Also some pickled carrots and jalapenos. Got 3 different flavors of jarritos. Everything was hot and excellent. Sauces were flavorful and varying levels of hot. Portions were very generous and the staff was super nice. Will be my go-to Mexican spot in Arlington from here on. read more

The food was decent however, I would rate this place 5 stars if the service was good. All the girls at the register look like they absolutely hate their job. They are NOT friendly or welcoming at all. I felt like I was bothering them by placing my order. My husband asked a question about the menu and they answered in a very rude manner as if it was a stupid question. Not sure if I'll be returning. Didn't feel welcome. read more

Ordered the super fries and California burrito carne asada had no flavor tasted dry/stale chewy the fries were soggy no guacamole Don't recommend the tortas either read more

My first visit...called for pick-up and order was ready within 15 minutes. Clearly a local favorite as the friendly register guy chatted with several folks coming and going. He knew their drink and salsa preferences too. They have the Best Breakfast Burritos! They're chorizo is the perfect flavor and tortillas are awesome. My daughter decided on the sausage breakfast burrito, which she loved as well. Great flavor, potatoes were cooked well and chopped more bite size than golf ball size chunks, which we appreciated. We'll be back! read more

INCREDIBLE! The chicken enchiladas are amazing!The staff is be courteous, all smiles. read more

I called at 9 and they said they were closing at 9:30 instead of 10, so we ordered a to go order and rushed there but they were open past 9:30 when we got there so that was annoying. Once we got there they were cool. I got a big burrito and 20 tacos, it was like $40 I believe. The Burrito was massive and really good, I'd absolutely go back. read more

Gilbertos Taco Shop - Giant burrito, really enjoyed it. - Tacos Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Got 3 steak tacos and 3 barbacoa and they were terrible , No seasoning at all , Wont be back !!

I debated giving 2 stars but 1 is about right. I was starving. Ordered an asada burrito. A little small for the price. That's a strike. Took a bite. Fatty meat. Rice & beans were fine. I got 3 different sauces they were fine. Kept eating & with each bite found myself contemplating whether to swallow or spit out the fat. I came starving and left hungry. read more

Wonderful little taco shop not far from ATT stadium. We had breakfast there twice while in town. I had 2 breakfast tacos with bacon egg and cheese. It was just the right amount. Staff was very friendly and it was very clean including the restrooms. Will def go again when in town. read more

The tacos were so good and all of the salsas had great taste, but the red one was especially spicy! if you like spice they're all pretty spicy and great flavor. The refried beans also really good. The quesadilla was pretty bad, I'm sorry but its true. idk if it was an off night, but the chicken was super dry, and barely any cheese. That's the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars BUT I would absolutely try them again, and would recommend the tacos to others. read more

I go almost every Thursday to get food for our office.. food is good and host are nice..

Great breakfast burritos. The Arlington is for the hungry only. Nice wait staff and had our burritos out in no time.

Have been searching for good bacon breakfast burritos for 9 years in DFW. Found it. For bacon burritos score it's more of a 7.5 out of 10 compared to best places in az or ca though for texas bacon burritos it gets 9/10. read more

Yummmm by far the best Mexican food I've had since moving to Texas! The super fries with carne asada literally reminded me of my favorite ones back in socal! Like maybe even better. The street tacos were good and the carne is good quality. The birria tacos are super yummy. My only complaint is maybe they could add more meat even if it means raising the price. The salsa is actually spicy. This place is the best read more

Great birria tacos, very tasty and affordable. I will definitely return to this place.

I ordered for the first time via DoorDash. The Arlington Breakfast Burrito was huge! Filled with yummy breakfast meats and egg and cheese. I got it smothered with the green Chile. It was delicious and very tasty. Very filling. Now I want to go in person . read more

Delicious. Moved from Cali to TX and Gilbertos reminds of Mexican food from home. I will definitely be back !

Visiting from San Antonio, I'm looking for real local food restaurants and not just food for tourists. I was happy to find "Gilbertos". The food was better than expected and wasn't over priced. I walked out fully full and satisfied. The food is good and average but I'll eat here 100 times more over than at those fake and touristy restaurants around Six Flags Over Texas. Please eat local and avoid franchises chains. read more

Elsa and the staff always take good care us. I recommend this place to everyone. The food is is amazing!!!!

We came on a Sunday Afternoon, & I was pretty excited to see that they had Carne Asada fries on the menu (Called Super Fries)! Being from San Diego, It's been difficult having to drive all the way to IRVING for my carne asada fries fix. When we arrived, the building is a little hard to miss. Its painted a beautiful bright red and yellow color, and has the coolest little mural painted on the side. Parking: I can see this being an issue when it's busy, because there is not a lot of space to park here. We were lucky enough to be able to find parking and enjoy our meal dining in. There were about 4 or 5 parking spots behind the building. Atmosphere: There is such a positive, CLEAN, bright atmosphere. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the cashier (victor?) And great music! They said they had been open for about 3 months now. This is a wonderful family owned business who has another location in Colorado. Really awesome background story to this establishment. Service: EXTREMELY quick service!! We had ordered, visited the salsa bar, and got our food in what felt like 5 minutes. It was absolutely crazy fast. Quality: The tacos were so flavorful. I ate them without salsa so I could taste the meat and for $1.50/Taco, you can't beat this quality. Not dry, and generous portions. The fries were crispy, and the burrito was also VERY good. Price: 2 drinks, 1 california burrito, 1 bean tostada, 2 tacos, 1 super fries = roughly $25.00 Overall: We are their newest regulars. Will DEFINITELY be back! Loved this place! read more

Very similar to the taco shops in San Diego. I went for crunchy tacos I have been craving since I moved here. I was definitely satisfied.

I read the reviews on here and Google. I looked at pictures and studied the menu. I have never been so disappointed about tacos in my life. I absolutely love authentic Mexican food, especially tacos. This was the blandest food ever. I got the rolled tacos supreme, 2 chicken tacos, a shredded beef taco, a fish taco, and a Coke. The only good thing was the Coke. I ate two rolled tacos. No excitement. Took a bite out of the fish taco and was disgusted. Ate the entire beef taco and I was ready to cry because what the hell?! I took a piece of chicken out of my taco and let me tell you.... Looks are deceiving. It looked seasoned. It tasted like hopeless dreams. This was a waste of my money. There was no flavor. Nothing. I don't see how this place has high remarks. read more

This place is the bomb. My wife and I had to go to the VA and on the way home we decided to stop in here for lunch. Will be coming here as often as realistically possible. Best taco shop in town without a doubt. read more

I love this place when I tried a year ago but I ordered the burrito and carne asada fries. Two of my faves . Burrito was good but carne asada fries were old. Even the taste was off. I couldn't even finish it because taste was gross, I just threw them away. read more

Tried the birria tacos, they were good and filling, and cashier went over the top to get my younger sisters order

Yum! Best burritos & salsa in Arlington and excellent service with two locations can't go wrong!

Great service and Great Food Fast and Friendly I always enjoy the Tacos with the Dipping Sauce
