    This place is nestled in a shopping center off the highway.Its a small space but everyone is very attentive.We could be decide on what to eat because everything looked so good.We started with 2 modelos & elote.Once we heard SUVAMENTE,BESAAAAME' coming from the kitchen we knew exactly what we wanted to order and share of course!.. 4 Birria tacos and a shrimp quesadilla...I heard the cook singing from the kitchen that's how I knew we were in for a treat.The portions were perfect, straight train to FLAVORTOWN.We celebrated our new place in Weston with 2 shops of reposado.I can't wait to go back

    The food is good and the happy hour too. We made a reservation for 20 people for a birthday party and there were only 2 waitress attending the whole restaurant. We have too wait so much time every time we ordered something. Waitress tried to do their best but it is too much just for two people.

    I have to be honest; there are times when I peruse reviews at various places I frequent before placing my order and sampling the food, and I find myself quite let down by the criticism that some individuals express. It almost seems as if they have no other purpose than to speak negatively about a venue. For instance, I came across a review where one person claimed everything was great but still rated them a 4 because perfection is unattainable. I genuinely believe this reviewer must be on medication--perhaps they're in need of a hug or lacking a positive role model; maybe they just need to take a break, haha! Regardless, this little gem in WESTON FL was absolutely wonderful. I loved the attentive service, the ambiance, and the music, and I even got to order from a menu displayed on an Apple tablet. The attention to detail was spot on. I'm sharing some pictures of what my wife and I ordered; feel free to let me know your thoughts. All I can say is AMAZING!!!

    decent place hidden in Westin next to a Hilton hotel in a little strip mall. Service was friendly and the food was good. I enjoyed it but there are a lot of options in the area and I don't think this is the best. I ordered the beer tacos andthey were good but not as good as other authentic Mexican places in the area. fairly plain environment and did not give chips and salsa as any type of table service.

    Tacos birria
    Karen O.

    Delicious authentic tasting. lively Mexican decor and music playing. We were both pleased with our food. One of the best Birria tacos I've had, cooked just right. The guacatacos were tasty as well with one as chicken, beef and Al pastor. The chips and salsa were good but don't come complimentary as many other Mexican restaurants offer. Service was a little slow with servers doing all the work. I would definitely try this again.

    Chips with guacamole and salsa

    I felt like I was in another place when I entered the restaurant. The decor is cute and there is an actual fountain inside. Menus are available on iPads. Chips with guacamole and salsa was delicious. Entrees weee enjoyed by all.

    GuacaTacos is one of many restaurants I tried during my recent visit to South Florida. While in Weston, Florida, I tried GuacaTacos. Before traveling, I searched Google for the "best tacos in Weston Florida", and GuacaTacos was number two in the results. Since it was a Friday, I made reservations several days before arriving to Florida, and I'm glad I did because the restaurant is on "small", but it seats around 50 people. However, it's in a strip mall and next to a hotel. I'm sure a lot of the guests go down to the restaurant. When we arrived at 7pm, it was practically empty, but around 8pm, it was packed! So if you go, make a reservation. What was even more surprising is the Spanish karaoke! There were two singers, one whom I think is a regular. However, the guest who was sitting behind me had a FABULOUS voice! On to the food - AMAZING as well! Wow! The food has the normal Mexican restaurant items - tacos, fajitas, burritos, but the flavors are extraordinary. For instance, my husband got a white sauce chicken burrito. He kept going on and on about how flavorful it tasted. I got the 3 meat combo fajitas, which was chicken, steak, and shrimp. I'm very picky about red beans and rice. Some restaurants the rice is too mushy or the beans are too bland. Well GuacaTacos did it very well! If you're in the Weston, Florida area, you have to add this restaurant to your list!

    Their salsa was the best I have ever had as it was fresh and clean tasting! Our waitress was sweet and kind and love the cleanness and atmosphere!

    Shrimp Gordita
    Alanna L.

    This place was absolutely delicious and authentic. The three sauces we had with the free chips paired nicely with every dish. I ordered the shrimp Gorditas. *chefs kiss*. The is little English spoken by the waiters. But I just pointed to the menu and used the little bit of Spanish I knew to get by. Everyone was so nice and attentive to our small party of 4. Service was quick. We were in and out in 45 minutes for our lunch break. Cost is low for the amount of food you get. Bathrooms were clean and the space was well lit. Plenty of parking in the area as well! Lastly? TRY THE TABLE GUACAMOLE. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

    Birria tacos with cheese (additional charge)
    Erika D.

    This place is small and cute enough, hidden in a little corner close to a hotel. We went on Tuesday after seeing them in an ad that mentioned $2.95 tacos for Taco Tuesday. I ordered three of them, one each chicken, al pastor, and steak. They were full, but they were tiny. I should have realized how small they would be when our server read them back to me and called them taquitos. Three of them were sufficient for my appetite, but if I was a teenage boy I'd probably need six or seven. The chicken was good, the tortilla fell apart pretty quickly but I feel like that always happens with shredded meat tacos. The steak was sort of bland and a bit overcooked, I wouldn't get it again. The al pastor was probably the best one. My better half got the birria tacos (not a promo, they were $22 for 4 of them). I guess this may come down to a language barrier, when he ordered them I thought she said, "is Mozzarella cheese okay?" (He said yes), but when we got the bill we were charged $3 for shredded cheese. So I guess she was really asking, do you want to add cheese? They were good, kind of reminded me of quesadillas, but I don't have much experience with birria tacos so that might be the norm. So the service. It seems like we read quite a few reviews (between Yelp and Google) that talked about how slow the service is, so you'd think by now the restaurant would have started staffing a second server. It would really be a game changer for them. When we walked in, we stood for 3-4 minutes (it seems long when you don't know what to do) before we were acknowledged and pointed to a table. We were given menus on seating. It took another maybe, 6 minutes or so? For her to bring chips to drop off (complimentary). She almost ran off before I could ask her which tacos were on special, but I managed to ask in time. (Not beef tongue, not birria... I don't really remember the rest.) Another ~10 minutes for us to be able to place our order. 7-8 minutes after that for our drinks to come out (a beer and a water). The food itself came out at a normal time from when we had ordered. It really does all come down to having one person running front of the house. And she was lovely! But she's one person. Overall the food was ... fine. The place was clean. But for just-okay food, I don't think I'll go out of my way to go back and wait through their understaffing issue.

    Shredded Chicken Burrito
    Melli B.

    Stopped in after a youth volleyball game in Weston. I got on Yelp because the kid was hungry right after her game and I didn't wanna make her wait. She loves burritos and after losing her game I needed to cheer her up. This place is small and is located in a plaza off Weston Rd where the Hampton Inn is. When we arrived it was pretty packed and lively which was perfect to lift her mood. She ordered a chicken burrito, I ordered a shrimp chimichanga, and my husband ordered the fish taco's. This order is pretty typical for my group. I literally could have ordered for them and got their orders right. Though the staff didn't speak English, I didn't feel out of place. Literally EVERYONE WAS NICE! We were able to communicate what we needed and I did not feel out of place nor did I feel they were annoyed with us and I find that often when you enter a place that's authentic to a certain culture, it isn't always a place where you can feel comfortable and "at home" so to speak. But it didn't feel awkward at all. No one stared at us as if we didn't belong. I genuinely enjoyed the environment and felt completely comfortable. The karaoke was fun and everyone was singing along and having a blast. We didn't know any of the songs yet we still vibed, clapped to the beat and tried to sing to the karaoke screen. As for the food...We liked it a lot. My chimichanga was crispy on the outside and warm, chewy and gooey (cheesy) on the inside and the shrimp was cooked nicely and were a decent size and I got shrimp in every bite. My daughter didn't talk at all. She sat there shaking her head in a YES motion as she chewed which is a good indicator that she loved her food. My husband is picky but he ate every bite as well and even finished my chimichanga. $88 bill for food, beer, margarita, and lemonade. I'd definitely return. No complaints at all!! Nice Girls Night Out spot and is also fun for families or after work gatherings. If you like Mexican food and a nice vibe, this is the place to go. Though it's small inside and the tables feel a bit crowded, it's still an enjoyable time.

First I will start with the aguas frescas. I ordered an horchata. It was $4.99 and was served in a tiny child size cup. When I tasted it, I noticed it wasn't even homemade. We then noticed they used KLASS powder mix to make their "aguas frescas" so completely overpriced and not even homemade. Second I will touch on the tacos. We ordered birria tacos. They asked if I wanted corn or flour tortillas. This is when I knew I was doomed for bad tacos because tacos are NOT made with flour tortillas. ‍ once we got our tacos they were 3 very small tacos and they were not served with cilantro or onion. Overall. I was disappointed and would not return here. Very overpriced for mediocre and low quality "Mexican" food.

The wonderful and very busy woman at the counter, offered the menu, but we already had one. She was busy not just taking orders, taking payments, and getting deliveries out the door, but mixing drinks, and taking care of tables! She was a one woman army! Outside looks small, and so does the inside. But the layout is done in such an effective way that it there is counter seating, and more than enough tables to host a small event.

The décor is authentically Mexican with Mexican pottery, glassware, imagery, decorations, etc. Regarding the food, it is as authentic as the décor.
