    Tacos!
    Harry B.

    Ok this is a hard one.... Definitely recommend if you want some good mex food. Tacos and quesadilla was great. Good quality and tasty. But... it is in a gas station and not much room to sit. So be prepared to get it to go. Headed home or a buds house... great. Date? Mmmm not so much. Also better if you speak Spanish. I don't and didn't understand too much. Got wrong order. They were friendly. Little pricey for gas station tacos. Food - 5 Service - 3 Location? 5 if you are getting gas and headed home. 3 if you are looking for good tacos and want to hang out.

    This is the second time I've been here, and decided to take a friend here because we were nearby. When we entered the gas station, there were already a lot of people waiting for food. There's limited seating so everyone was mainly standing around or sitting in their car waiting for the order. He ended up ordering two carne asada tacos, but I wanted to try something different this time. I ended up ordering 1 of each Champinojes (Mushrooms), Pastor-Queso, Rajas con Queso (peppers and cheese) taco. Both of us ended up waiting nearly 15-20 minutes for our order. From my last experience here, this seems like a normal wait time because it's always packed. Since there was nowhere to sit, we ended up getting takeout and coming back to our own places. My friend indicated that he really enjoyed his meal. I definitely appreciated the cilantro, onions, and radishes in the foil pack. The sauce was delicious and had the right amount of spice as well. I really enjoyed the Pastor-Queso taco. The pastor was really well complemented, and I wished I had bought more. The Champinones tacos was alright, nothing special. I was not a fan of the Rajas con Queso taco. I do eventually want to branch out and try some of the other items there.

    We are new in the area. We miss the Taco trucks of L.A. My neighbor recommended this place. This has become our go to taco place . We ordered Al Pastor, Chicharon, Surtida, Lengua, Maciza and Buche. Our favorites so far is the Buche (pork stomach), Chicharon (pork skin) and Al Pastor (pork). I did not care for the Maciza . I will skip that next time. Pricing per taco was good. Next time, we will try the other meats. I keep forgetting to order suadero. Jamaica tastes good! Service was good , friendly and helpful.

    Great gas station tacos. There's almost nowhere to sit. A good snack or dinner to go, and good selection of menu items as well. Not the cheapest tacos around, $2/taco for standard street taco double corn tortilla size. I ordered 5 tacos: Faji-Queso, Al Pastor, 2x Lengua, Surtida. The first 2 were my favorite, but none were bad. If you have a preference for street taco meats then follow that preference. I would give 5 stars if there was somewhere to sit. The ambience is also non-existent, but that is almost preferred for street taco places.

    I've been living in Texas for most of my life now... Since I grew up in Los Angeles, I've always complained about the Mexican food here isn't as authentic. Since most places usually provide TexMex! This taco shop though... Some of the best tacos in town, hands down! Their choice of meats is great, but their menu is even greater! With everything from tacos, burritos & quesadillas, to gringa

    Al Pastor and that's a freshly made corn tortilla!

    OMG Tacos inside a gas station that are really good and the tortillas are freshly made! Yes kind of like heaven on earth. Small little kitchen with 5 bar stools at the counter, so unless you get lucky you will probably be taking them home with you. Had the Al pastor Tacos, QuesaBirrias and Quesadilla Campechano. everything was delicious. So good I went sunday and then again on Monday! don't let the look of a gas station restaurant fool you! Its legit and the food is amazing! Plus the ladies at the restaurant are all super nice and helpful. Thank you !

    Outside of Convenience Store

    Lately, I've been obsessed with Taquerias and finding the best street tacos and tamales. This place served some really great street tacos... unfortunately, no tamales were found at the scene. This spot is located in a convenient store and, at first, may seem a bit odd. However, outside of the Quickie Mart feel it's definitely doable. I ordered 4 tacos (listed from least fav to best): Tinga de Pollo (Seasoned Chicken Breast), Al Pastor (Seasoned Pork), Asada-Fajitas (Beef Skirt), and the Carnitas (Sweet Seasoned Pork). 2/4 ain't bad. The one thing I disliked was the fact that they charged an extra $0.35 per flour tortilla and $0.25 for using a credit card. ‍ All and all, I enjoyed the experience for what it was worth. Needless to say, the search for the best Taqueria continues.

    Quesadilla and 2 tacos

    I rarely come across a place that really warrants a full five stars but damnnnn! This place is inside a small gas station, next to a Taco Bueno, and there's no sign or anything distinguishing there is a taqueria inside. Walk in and to the left is where you'll find it. The menu is pretty extensive for such a small kitchen area but I've never had anything here that I didn't like. The veggies and salsa always taste fresh, and the meats do too. This time around I got an al pastor taco, suaqueso (suadero with cheese!) taco, and a cachete (beef cheeks) quesadilla - all with corn tortillas. E got a chorizo taco, chilango taco, and an asada taco - all on flour tortillas. The food was ready pretty quickly and was very warm, had to wait a minute for it to cool down. The amount of veggies they give you with your order is awesome. Plenty of grilled onions for me to add into my delicious tacos, and big fat lime slices to squeeze onto them too. The orange salsa (I neglected to find out what kind) is spicy and just right; the salsa verde isn't as spicy but also adds a great layer to the flavor combo. We took a mini road trip from Bedford all the way here, if that tells you anything at all. FYI there's no dine-in space, so we just get our food and find a nice shady/scenic place somewhere to sit and enjoy. Highly recommend, and will definitely be back many times, haha!

    This is what they consider a platillo..doesn't a platillo come with rice and beans or something???? Basically $4 a taco ... super wak

    Had such a nice lunch with my family at Las Palmas! This was our second time visiting this location…read moreand it definitely lived up to the hype again. Since the weather has been so nice lately, outdoor seating is super popular, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you can.

The location is super cute and always packed. You definitely need a reservation or have to go super early to get a spot. There is valet parking as well as street parking, which can get a bit crowded. I've had a ton of different food items the years, but their fajitas are their signature dish for a reason! It comes out sizzling, fresh, and delicious. Do not pass up on the bone marrow sauce, it transforms the dish to beyond a 10/10! The salsas are always good and then tortilla chips salty and fresh. I start with a skinny margarita w a salt rim, which was good. Our waiter, Abraham, was great! He was very attentive and was very knowledgeable about the menu. We also order the ceviche to start, which was yummy! The crackers were a bit of an odd pairing for me and I stuck with tortilla chips, but overall delicious!! My friend ordered the steak quesadilla and thought it was tasty too.

We hung out comfortably and had a couple of drinks before heading out. The food is amazing!! Obviously every dish is meat based here and it's cooked to perfection.

I'll admit I was very skeptical about The Chicharrónes because they're either cooked right or they're not. They got it down here.

Here in Texas, chips and salsa are such a commonplace experience it's off-putting to pay for them. We ordered the guacamole and the chips and salsa come with it, so that was, I guess, better...but the guacamole was $16, so there's that. The salsa was tasty as was the guacamole, but again, for the portion it's really not worth it. We had the queso flameado, which was yummy and the flour tortillas are good! We split the sirloin and were underwhelmed. For a grilled meats place the steak was very under seasoned and wasn't giving us fresh hot grilled vibes. Meh at best, as were the rice and beans. We ordered elote as a side and it was really the best thing we ate. Service was friendly and efficient! Cocktails average $16ish. Again, for the prices we expected better.

Chris our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took his time walking us through the menu and explaining what made El Carlos Elegante so special. The drinks were perfect. My wife loved her Desert Flor while I thoroughly enjoyed my Modelo Micheleda. Her Surf and Turf one hitter was exceptional. I have to say my Crab Cake was just ok. It tasted a little pasty and very heavy on the bread. The Pulpo was absolutely amazing. Perfect texture and the sauce it was served almost had me licking the plate. The El Machete was incredible from its presentation, to the freshness of the corn tortilla, to the quality of the meat inside. Definitely recommend this. We really liked our Okra + Shishito course, we just wished it had more okra in it. The two things I loved about the Al Pastor was of course the sauce it was served on but the fact that I got to enjoy it like a steak. It was served sliced on a bias like flank steak. Typically Al Pastor is finely chopped and served in tacos and burritos, so this was a different eating experience for me. And of course it was delicious as well. We cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.

    I was genuinely excited to bring my friend here for her birthday after such an incredible…read moreexperience back in December. That visit checked every box -- the food, service, ambiance, and overall hospitality were all exceptional. What really stood out to me then was the attention to detail. I had casually mentioned that one of my cocktails wasn't quite my taste, and Harry personally reached out afterward to say they'd gladly adjust it next time. That kind of thoughtful follow-up leaves a lasting impression and is exactly the sort of hospitality that elevates a restaurant experience. Unfortunately, this recent visit felt like a completely different restaurant. We decided to do a combination of à la carte dishes along with the Experience menu after being told this version would feature entirely off-menu items, which genuinely intrigued us since Ihad also done the Experience previously. At the start of dinner, we were asked about allergies and dietary restrictions. I clearly explained that I have a mango allergy and do not eat beef. Our server then asked whether I ate other meats, and I clarified yes -- and even specifically mentioned that if the machete dish was beef, please still include it because my friend could enjoy it and I really wanted her to try it. He confirmed it would be the sirloin version, so we happily agreed not to modify that course. So imagine our surprise when one of the first dishes arrived dressed with a mango vinaigrette. Thankfully, we barely caught him quietly mentioning "mango" as he set it down. We immediately looked at each other thinking, "Didn't we just discuss the allergy?" It was disappointing, but unfortunately also representative of the overall service throughout the evening. Our server seemed disengaged, inattentive, and often not fully listening. Empty glasses sat untouched, opportunities to order additional items were missed, and at one point we were simply handed the check without even being asked if we wanted anything else. We also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine and ended up pouring it ourselves for most of the evening because our glasses were rarely refilled. I completely understand not leaving the bottle tableside if walkway space is limited, but repeatedly needing to get up ourselves to retrieve it felt out of sync with the level of service one expects from a Michelin-recommended restaurant -- especially at this price point. Then came the machete dish. Instead of the sirloin version we specifically discussed, we received the vegetarian potato version. When the server asked how it looked, I politely explained that we were disappointed because he had specifically told us it would be the sirloin preparation. At minimum, I would have expected another protein substitution given the earlier conversation about what I could eat. I'm also still unclear whether the Experience menu was truly "off-menu" as described, since several dishes -- including the halibut -- appeared familiar. Had that been communicated differently, we likely would have skipped the Experience altogether and simply curated our own meal. At the end of the night, spending over $500 while pouring our own wine, nearly being served an allergen we explicitly disclosed, and receiving dishes different from what was promised made for a deeply disappointing experience -- especially after such a phenomenal first visit. It honestly felt sad more than anything because I know how wonderful this restaurant can be. I'm not sure what changed in the last five months, but the difference was significant.
