    Beer tacos chips salsa birria consommé
    Maryjo H.

    It's a small establishment, strip mall. We were staying close in a VRBO for Nights of Lights festivities. My grandson can be a picky eater but he ate the food here! The woman who served us, so personable. No hurry. We had a couple beers, the Burria was phenomenal and the consommé to dip it in, so flavorful. Grandson had a gringo taco with sour cream. My son was too busy eating for me to notice what he had. And we had chips/salsa. No complaints. Whatever they were out of, she offered equal or better alternatives , it was a great start to our weekend.

    Great tasting tacos made with Impossible meat, super flavorful and perfectly seasoned. I loved the fresh avocado, crunchy lettuce and cabbage, and the pico on top. Chips and salsa were great, and the Mexican soda hit the spot. Overall, a delicious and satisfying meal! Service was friendly and casual fun place.

    Quaint, clean taco shop with a "Must Try" Birria taco. The taco was crispy with melted cheese and a nice consume' that is a nice touch. The meat was nice and tender with great flavor. The staff is personable and very helpful with explaining the menu. I liked this place and enjoyed the food. I plan to return!

    Great customer service, im just finishing ordering and waiting for, to try it.

    Great customer service and can't wait to try it. First time here, exited to try birria tacos, and gringo burritos

    For a hefty 17 dollar price tag, the three tacos and chips were average at best. The different styles of taco were fun, but the flavors didn't really pop like some of the other taco places we've tried in the past. While it was a passable meal, there are definitely better sit down options available around the old town.

    Family in town have wanted to try this place for a while. Really friendly staff. Started with chips and queso. We ordered a number of different kinds of tacos. We all loved the birria taco with the dipping sauce. Their ground beef tacos are also really good. So many options need to return again and try more. Plenty of parking out front.

    Description Taco place located in St Augustine towards the main tourism area and if I'm not mistaken possible a main tourist road as well. They offer free cups of water which tastes a little off so if you are picky about your water, bottled water is the way to go. What I ordered A single birria taco a cheese quesadilla and 3x birria house special. When you order this they give you a small cup filled with extra birria broth that you can drink or dunk your tacos in. The flavor was good and the tacos were filling. When you're done eating there's trash where you can throw away your trash and you can take the tray up to the cashier. Value Compared to other taco place prices that I've been to it runs in similar pricing or a little bit cheaper. Ambiance/Crowd It was fairly empty when we went but very casual attire such as jeans leggings shirts style. It's is kid friendly and it's more of a younger crowd from two other groups I saw go in. Service The service is good, when ordering the girl working the cashier was very helpful in explaining the menu. Super kind no complaints. Parking I went on a Sunday during a long weekend. The parking was in front of the restaurant which probably fits about 8 cars but when we got there it was empty so we had no issues parking. Not sure how it would be during a busy time or rush hour. Parking in front of the restaurant is free but outside of there it seems that anywhere else you park you have to pay for parking. 4 year olds thought corner He thought the quesadilla was delicious and ate most of it until he was full but he stated a machine was loud which we didn't think it was but it's something that turns on and off.

    Do not order the margs they are awful. They taste so fake. I don't even know what recognizable flavor they were

    This is a Birria focused spot. We came in a recommendation from neighbors. I ordered food to go on national taco day but the place was empty at 630 PM. We got on Birria griller and 3 birria tacos. By the time I got home in 10 min the foam to go container had softened the Birria taco shell. To the point it was super sloppy. They would have benefited from a vented top. Also they did not put paper in between them so it was a challenge to separate them. Despite those challenges there is a spice used in the meat that we could not place. It was almost like a licorice flavor, maybe fennel, clove? It wasn't bad, just different. Both dishes were delicious and the griller is a two person job!

    Barriria salad with loads of meat, roasted corn and fresh salsa.
    Debra S.

    This is my second time visiting Gringos. I'm a California girl so I take my tacos very seriously and the first time I was not that impressed. But then I heard we are supposed to order the Barriria! What's Barriria? It's a Mexican way of slow cooking beef that creates more like a pot roast taco filling. These tacos are served with beef juice that you dip your taco into. It was delicious. I also ordered the Barriria salad. It was huge with enough beef to keep even a construction worker happy! This little taco shop just spent a bunch of time fixing up a cute sitting area out front with lots of plants to hang out with. I recommend sitting there and people watching while you munch on your tacos. There's plenty of parking right out front as well.

    Steak Bowl
    Janny Y.

    Very casual taco joint. Lady was nice and patient, explained my questions about the menu. The portions are very generous. Ingredients were fresh. The queso was of nice texture and not salty. I thought the bowl would come with flour tortillas but we got chips instead. The steaks in the nacho were a bit too salty, but everything else was good. It's definitely a nice joint to check out if you're in the area.

    I want you Gringo! After leaving the beach, we were hungry and decided on Mexican food for dinner. A couple of the trolley drivers recommended the spot as well and we got takeouts to finish the night off with. It was ready within 10 minutes after placing the order over the phone. The gringo bowl consisted of fajita chicken, which wasn't spicy. It had yellow rice topped with cilantro and queso. It was a huge portion and I ate most of it. I liked the yellow rice pairing and everything went well together. I can't speak for the inside since it was a to-go order. However, it was presented well when I opened the styrofoam package and it tasted fresh with every bite I took of it. Thanks for a Saturday night fill up!

    It's just very plain and boring. Burrito, nachos and salads are all just blah. Don't come here. Find good tasty food somewhere else

The menu is where things get especially interesting--unique, playful, and definitely not your standard fare. I tried the chicken apple pie sandwich, which was as unexpected as it sounds. It was fun, different, and surprisingly good! It is one of those dishes you won't find just anywhere. Husband loved his upscale bologna sandwich and the waffle fries were yummy!

Large portions, beautiful plates and silverware, and quaint, cozy ambiance in America's oldest city. Fast forward to Saturday the 14th, and I'm back again with family visiting from out of the country. The food was good, but the vibe was a bit different. Started with chips & salsa - good, but hardly any chips. We had 3/4 of a dish of salsa remaining after finishing the chips, and we were told that we would have to pay for a refill of chips. Very sad! We also ordered two taco platters, and three chicken quesadilla platters. Food was good, but the side portions (beans and rice) were very small, and served in tiny plastic cups. The plates and silverware were replaced with cardboard plates/trays and plastic cutlery. Although the food was good, the presentation was disappointing. Our waitress did a good job, so kudos to her! $120+ before a tip - a couple more chips would have been nice, and real plates and silver would have been amazing.....just saying.

Plaintain chips are good but I wish they were warm/hot. my friends like their beef burritos a lot too. Their ranking was lamb then beef, pork, chicken. Love that the menu is quite simple and easy to order. The staffs are so friendly and helpful and location is right across the Castillo de San Marcos fortress. Would def come back.

There is a small covered area but it's mostly high top seats for a few people. But this is a neighborhood spot feels like you're eating in your backyard. The line for ordering can get extremely long during popular dinning times such as lunch and dinner. So be prepared to wait in line and wait for your dishes. I promise it is worth the wait. I recommend ordering chips and queso they do bring that out quickly and you can much while you wait for your main dishes. The UFO is my favorite dish on the menu and I crave it all the time. It's a flour tortilla that covers a hard taco stuffed with a protein (I love that blackened Mahi) and you can get it spicy (Baja style) or mild (the works). Absolutely the best thing here! If you're grabbing to go, check their website. Sometimes it's not open, but normally you can order ahead and pay online. So when you arrive you can pick up at the pick up window.

So really, my 40-minute wait felt like I hit the express lane. And the grand finale? The food finally arrives--after nearly an hour of anticipation--and it's...painfully average. Not bad enough to be memorable, not good enough to justify the wait. Just perfectly mediocre. So if your goal is to waste time and lower your expectations simultaneously, this is your spot. Otherwise, maybe keep driving.
