So ok I was craving tacos today and. A huffy of mine suggested this place..... and for good reason!!! The tacos are amazing!!!! This is a small lil joint with big flavor!!! Lane and Brady are two of the nicest people I've met in alaska. But let's get to the taco!! The tortillas are made fresh in house!!! We ordered the Alaska , the Texan, and 'Mercian tacos!! Freakin delish!!!! I can't wait to go back and try the other tacos also they have a special I'm not sure how long it'll be there but he said about a week. It was a chicken taco with pickled hominy and onion and some kind of white sauce which was fantastic!!! For two meals and en extra taco and horchata we spent $45 not including til which of course I tipped them. Averages out to about 7 a taco and 2 for the rice n beans. All in all not a bad price . Most definitely recommend coming here if ur looking for a shorter wait time don't go at noon! lol the lunch rush was pretty funny. But u know they're good when u got that many people in a small venue. lol read more

Went in around noon for the 1st time. Lane explained how everything worked. Almost everything including tortillas are scratch made. The Alaska taco was amazing!! Also had the Texas, which was really good. Sauces were excellent! The beans & rice were good, but nothing unique. I'd suggest get 3 tacos & skip the beans & rice for same price as 2 tacos with B&R. The dine in space is small, but if the weather is good the patio is nice. Very friendly service as well & a good hip vibe. Close to UAF campus. read more

We were heading to the airport and decided to grab a quick bite first! My buddy suggested Taco Bell (um... no!). Super exited that fellow Yelpers referred us to Lane's. Their tacos were scrumptious!! The fellas there were so sweet and quick! With our bellies full and hunger satisfied, we headed home to California. Will definitely visit again when in Fairbanks. read more

Laine was personable and I loved that he made conversation with us when he could. We also geeked out about all things Star Trek which was fun..that aside the food was amazing. Had the Alaskan, the Texan, the Po Boy, The Sunday morning, sweet tea that was perfect not too sweet and still had tea taste as well as his version of tortilla soup. He usually has a total of 6 different tacos and a 7th that rotates out weekly. There is parking in the area. My only complaint is that it isn't open all the time every day because his food is so good that I kept wanting to come back! He definitely has regulars which tells you the food is definitely good. I've never had texmex before but my taste buds say the food was delicious. He also sells merch if you do choose! Has different payment options which was great. Definitely happy to come back next time I am in Fairbanks. read more

I thought I had the best tacos ever at a hole in the wall in another state. I was wrong. Lane has made something incredibly special with his inventive flavor profiles. Add to that his incredible energy and charismatic personality, and you have a winning combination. We were visiting from Anchorage and Yelp led us to Lane's and it did not disappoint. The po boy taco was so good that my eyes rolled back in my head. The rice and beans, the homemade tortillas and fresh salsas only amped up the flavor bomb that was exploding in my mouth. Do not think of skipping Lane's if you're in the area. Worth the trip!!!! read more

I discovered this place the last 2 weeks I was living in Fairbanks. In those last 2 weeks I went 4 times. I now live in Southern California and Lane's quickie tacos are still some of the best tacos I've ever had. So safe to say, best tacos in Fairbanks as well!!! read more

Tasty simple tacos. Pork and beef flavors excellent. Fast service. Great spot to stop for lunch.

Lane's Quickie Tacos is the taco hero we all need. Visitors here from NY and we were at the Museum of the North and needed a lunch that satisfied. Quick search of what is nearby and I knew immediately how badly we needed a quickie...taco. We zoomed on over to the small and adorable hut which had seating outside and in, very limited though, and were welcomed with a fun and expressive energy. We ordered our tacos, took a seat and boom the tacos were ready in about 5 to 10 min. Incredible speed for everything being so delicious and fresh. We couldn't try everything and seeing as we fly back to NY tomorrow I can't tell you if everything is great, but with what we had I'd safely assume it is. They are able to accommodate dairy free which is great too, if you have that type of dietary restriction. And if you read this far that's wild because I don't know how you aren't already convinced. Tell your friends and your enemies that Lane's the best tacos anywhere....in the world!?!?! Enjoy! read more

Our favorite lunch spot in Fairbanks! I've tried every single taco on the menu and several of the specials. Lanes has never let me down. He's incredibly friendly while serving fast and delicious food. Next time I'll remember to take a picture before I inhale my food. read more

Lane is awesome and his tacos are the best!!! I always get the Alaskan (pork taco with cojita cheese and onions) and try the special! Lane does such an amazing job cooking and serving! read more

Delicious tacos and great service! The tacos were very flavorful and fresh made tortillas. The Sasquatch was awesome and the Po Boy taco was delicious. read more

Lane's was great! It isn't the largest place but the staff is super friendly. Menu is roughly the same with occasional changes for the special as well as with seasonal vegi's. Lane was originally from San Antonio from our conversations and brings a different twist. Worth a visit if in Fairbanks. read more

Good tacos but really expensive. Over $5 per taco and they are pretty small. Taco King and Miguel's are $3-4 and a bit bigger plus sauces are no extra charge read more

We've been coming here for years. No explanation needed. Always the best tacos around. Comfortable nerd ambiance. Must try!

Absolutely delicious! I had the Veggie Delight Taco Platter for $12 - it came with re-fried beans, Spanish rice, a kale taco, and a bean and cheese taco. The whole meal was absolutely delicious and very filling. A kale taco may sound strange but it was actually my favorite part of the whole meal. The kale was tender and flavorful... next time I stop by I am ordering three of them! I highly recommend stopping by - anything you get is sure to be delicious. read more

Everybody Loves A Quickie! Just as the shirt says, if you like Quickies and Tacos then this place will not disappoint. His great tasting taco combinations will blow your mind. The great customer service from the owner who waits on you is a welcome treat as you enter. I tried several of the taco options and they were all great, with the Po Boy Taco being my favorite. Service was quick. Prices are on the higher end for tacos, especially $5 for adding a small portion of rice & beans. The quality, service and taste make this a must-go spot! The homemade flour tortillas make Lane's Quickie Tacos some of the tastiest tacos outside the bedroom. read more

Holy smokes! Who knew I'd have to travel to Fairbanks, Alaska to have some of the best tacos I've ever eaten?! San Antonio ex-pat Lane has 6 menu staple tacos and one special of the day taco every day. Each one begins with a homemade flour tortilla that enrobes a super generous amount of some of the most succulent beef and pork I've ever had. The seasoning is imported from San Antonio and every bite is like a party on your tongue. Highly recommend one of the combo platters, chased down with a Mike's hard lemonade. The beans are seasoned so well and are topped with a sprinkle of cheese. Rice is tasty. But the avocado sauce? OMG that stuff needs to be bottled! It was the perfect topper for the Alaskan taco. Lane the owner was on scene overseeing all preparation. He's a great guy and is proud to share his story with you. Sidekick Jon is a hoot. Ask him who's the spooner and who's the hugger. You will LMAO! Very highly recommended. read more

My favorite place in Fairbanks for tacos! They have awesome tacos and many options. The service is fast and the staff is really friendly too! Will definitely come back to try out different taco combinations! read more

The owner Lane was very friendly and helpful. The food was great. The best taco and rice I have ever eaten! Recommend the Alaskan taco- great flavor and texture. Lots of fun collectables and wall hangings to explore. Especially for Star Wars fans like me! See you next time I am in the State! read more

One of the best meals I ate in my two weeks in Alaska. Fresh handmade tortillas with delicious fillings. Lane is enthusiastic about his tacos and it shows! My husband and I had the Po Boy taco and a smoked chicken and slaw that was on special. Both were delicious. read more

Awesome tacos! The owner was so cool. He took the time to explain the menu and the popular items. Even stopped to help an elderly regular get down the stairs safely. Truly an overall great experience. Thank you! And may the force be with you! read more

so. good. don't miss if you are in fairbanks, my only complaint is that there isn't a lane's by my house (in cali)

Best tacos and service I've had in quite a while! I've lived in San Diego and visited Texas many times and always get tacos. I'd be hard pressed to remember tacos that good in those places. Two super guys working the place. There should be a line out the door read more

Favorite taco place in town! LOVE the fresh-pressed, (still hot from being cooked) flour tortillas. Delicious ingredients and combinations of spices. *I would star this twice just to give 10!!!!* read more

The only thing I don't like about this place, is that I can't eat more tacos in one sitting. Seriously love this place and the people are so friendly. Love it. read more

Great tacos. Especially pulled pork and brisket tacos. The place wasn't the cleanest and I would probably do take out next time, but the tacos were delicious. read more

Ok Boyz and Girls lend me your ear. This is not your local taco bell taco! This food Lane serves is from the heart, I'll say it again this is not an ordinary taco. The Alaskan, my wife's Favorite, Is a pulled pork with onions, fresh cilantro and with a lime, Delish! My favorite on the daily menu is the Texan, oh my! Then there is the specials you have to look out for. Number one in our heart is the Po Boy, its a seasoned brisket, oh so moist you could drink the juice lol with onions, pickles and a creamy bbq sauce. You get this on a Fresh made Flour or corn tortilla. Are you hungry yet? Go get you some taco love. read more

I have not one bad thing to say about Lane's! Despite being a Tex-mex spot, this is a true Fairbanks experience. Open door, slightly janky, dirt lot, funky decor. The owner Lane is quirky and incredibly hospitable. Introduces himself to every customer. These tacos are unreal-- and a true blend of Alaska and Lane's home state of Texas. We got the Alaskan Taco, and I don't know that I'd ever get something different... it was just so good! Be sure to slather up your taco with the homemade hot sauce. It's not too hot and it's packed with flavor. Also note that they're always trying out something fun and new. Recently, Lane experimented with jackfruit tacos, and he's getting ready to start making his own flour tortillas. This guy is always on the move to create the best customer experience. Price wise... $5 taco won't fill you up, but $9 will cure moderate hunger. Wish it was just a tad cheaper, but for this quality of food, I'll live with it. read more

Ok where do I begin. First off im from Cali & I've been in Fairbanks (for work) for a week. Let me tell you I HAVE NOT found tacos as tasty & authentic as Lane's!!! As soon as you walk thru the door you are welcomed by Lane and Star, Suuuuuper friendly & hospitable. They make you feel right at home. Small place but they do have some seats. They explained their menu & gave me suggestions. I went with the carne guisada & the barbacoa tacos. Mmmmmm, so good. Very flavorful, authentic just like back home & with homemade flour tortillas. The meat just falls apart, so tender. I also had the "piggy tortilla soup" it was amazing!! Full of shredded pork meat with onions, tomatoes & lots of flavor. Perfect for this cold Alaska weather. So if you're in the area give them a try, you won't be disappointed!! read more

I can't express it enough that Lane has the best vegetarian taco I've ever had! I now live in Los Angeles where there are vegetarian tacos galore but all it has done is make me miss Lane's tacos! Thanks Lane for all the good food. Your tacos are now on the bucket list of almost every vegetarian and vegan person I know! Anyone looking for good tacos has to try Lane's whether you're vegetarian or a meat eater! My brother Joseph misses your tacos most of all and also is convinced you make the best ones!! Thanks again read more

A well put together street taco is an art form. One that Lane has perfected. All of the time and effort that he puts into creating these amazing tacos shows. Making sure that the flavors and the experience are excellent. His regular menu is always consistently delicious and I love all of the new tacos he comes up with to switch out day to day. You can tell he really cares about his end product and his customers. He takes special care to make sure every customer feels special; that alone makes you want to come back time after time. Quality food takes time and it's not fast food, so waiting a few minutes for the tacos of my dreams is hardly a bother. If you haven't tried Lane's tacos yet, you must! P.S. my favorites are the Alaskan, the Texan, and the Po Boy. read more

Such good tacos! Fun environment, great customer service, and a present owner who genuinely cares about the experience his customers have. A favorite quick lunch spot. read more

Some of the best tacos I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. I would go a step further and say this is the best establishment in Alaska for tacos. Lane and Ms Star are incredibly welcoming and courteous and their food is always outstanding! Can't stress enough how good this place and the people are. One of my absolute favorites!! read more

Amazing tacos. Fresh tortillas. Great customer service. Just an all around great experience! Thank you Lane!

This is a great place for a quick and easy no fuss bite. Small menu means they can focus on making each item delicious - though I do wish there were just a few more options. Lane is very friendly and each taco is made fresh to order. Limited seating but you can take your tacos to go. Will be back! read more

AWESOME. Delicious veggie bean tacos. Loved both the Hippie and the Kiddo. Super speedy taco maker. Dole whip was perfect treat at the end. Friendly service, nice outdoor tables, plenty of parking. We were visiting from Manhattan and these tacos beat any we've had in New York! read more

These are the best tacos in Fairbanks! My husband and I ate here last week and were seriously impressed. We had the Alaskan, the American, and the Texan taco and they were all delicious. Lane is also extremely courteous and nice to talk to. We will definitely be back. read more

Best tacos I've had in ALASKA so far. I loved the hand made tortillas and the taco combinations. I'd come here every week if I could. Lane is super friendly and seems very passionate about his creations. Stop by and grab some tacos! read more

One of Fairbanks true gems!!!! I love Lane's Tex-Mex style! All of his offerings are absolutely delicious- even the Piggy Tortilla Soup (I'm not usually a soup person, but I assure you, this is something you must try!) Lane started off at the Farmer's Market, and now has an awesome place right above The Marlin bar. It's charming and warm. When you walk in you are greeted not only by the smell of delicious taco love, but a warm smile and hello. His entire staff is well versed in their offerings, so don't feel shy asking for recommendations or if something is sufficiently spiced/too spicy for you. They love making people happy! I have trouble with spicy things, but their tacos are just perfectly flavorful without bothering me. If you wish to kick it up into the Fire Zone- they have many different sauces you can add- just ask! Their regular tacos are all wonderful. My favorites are The Texan (this amazing stewed beef style) and The Alaskan (shredded pork). They also have The 'Merican (shredded beef), the Kiddo (hand made refried beans with cheese!!!!), The Hippy (kale and veggie- vegan friendly!), and they offer sides of Mexican rice and beans too! Soup is a semi regular offering (yummm). All of their specials are just wonderful too. I adore The Redheaded Stranger in particular. He's open in the evenings now too! I love being able to pop by for a yummy taco dinner. Oh, and Lane's Quickie Tacos live up to their name too- they are super fast. You can call ahead with your order too, if you are in a rush! This is a really fantastic small business. I hope they continue to grow through the years. It's one of my go to places, I love sharing with friends too. read more
