    Al pastor and carne tacos
    Camille D.

    A nice stop after a fun weekend escapade in downtown Gilbert. I didn't expect much from here but was pleasantly surprised with the tacos we ordered. Both the carne asada tacos and al pastor were flavorful. Our friend ordered the Sonoran hotdog was reportedly delicious too so I may try that next time. The price was pretty affordable. The food came out quickly once we put our order in. The food cart was in front of Whiskey Row. We ate our food sitting on one of the benches. Keep in mind they do not have tables and seating.

    This tiny food cart situated in downtown Gilbert offers mouth watering carne asada tacos and other traditional favorites. After leaving one of the bars on a Friday night, this taco stand hit the spot. They have a few tables set up next to their stand which is nice and our order came out fairly quickly. I ordered three carne asada tacos and my friend opted for the nachos. The carne asada was flavorful and these were probably some of the best street tacos I have had. The nachos were good considering they had the carne asada and fresh toppings on top but the nacho cheese and chips were nothing special. There were also a couple of salsa bottles on the tables as well. All in all Midnight Tacos is wort trying and I believe they have an actual location in Gilbert which I will definitely try to stop by.

    Steak quesadilla with guacamole and pico de gallo on the side!

    We accidentally came across this taco stand and I'm so glad we did! It was 11pm on Saturday night when we decided to stop by. The two guys working were friendly and helped us out right away. We ordered one carne asada quesadilla with the guacamole and pico de gallo on the side, and my friend had a carne asada taco with everything on top. My quesadilla was delicious! The cheese was stretchy and the meat was great! I drenched my quesadilla with the red salsa and it was heaven! My friend enjoyed her taco and she said it was so full of flavor! The quesadillas are $7 and drinks are a $1.50. (They have canned sodas and water) They have three tables available on top of some cute fake grass and our table was clean! The music was poppin and the ambience was nice! We will definitely come by again sometime soon!

    It's a taco spot next to a bar I think but it's a small taco stand so you gotta find parking else where and just walk to them. Menu pretty simple but it is pricey . We got like ten tacos and two drinks for $40. I had the carne asada taco and Al pastor tacos . Pretty good I love the sauce they have . They do have seating but obvious outside and it's cold lol

    Having a night out and Gilbert and looking for a midnight snack before the next bar? This little taco stand is right in between OHSO and Culinary Dropout. My friends and I stopped here late Saturday evening. There was a line of about 8 people in front of us, but the line went pretty quick. I ordered a carne asada quesadilla with sour cream and my friends ordered tacos and a burrito. We grabbed a spot at one of the few tables nearby and waited. The orders came out pretty quickly. My quesadilla was perfect - cheesy and filled with pico and carne asada. My friend put some of the green salsa on his burrito and he was breaking out a sweat. They have an option to add hot Cheetos to your selection. Maybe next time I'll be more adventurous with my order!

    Bomb!... that's all I have to say. Green sauce is an added bonus to the already flavorful carne Asada tacos. Inexpensive, but would be worth every penny even if they weren't. After bar drunk food way better than jack in the box's monster tacos!

    I got the carne asada taco. This place is great to go to after Whiskey Row. It has chill vibes. The carne asada was good, the pico was delicious. However, the tortilla was only okay. Maybe ask if they have corn tortillas. The portion was actually larger than what I expected. Good pricing. I will definitely go back!

    Amazing tacos and very fast service. We love this place after a fun night in Gilbert.

The quality really stands out--especially the homemade tortillas, which take everything to the next level. The al pastor and carne asada are both incredible, packed with flavor and cooked perfectly.

There's also a great variety of options on the menu, so there's something for everyone. Service is consistently quick, even when it's busy, which makes it a great spot whether you're grabbing a quick meal or sitting down to enjoy your food. Their Taco Tuesday deal is also a huge win--great value without sacrificing quality, and it keeps us coming back regularly. And the salsa deserves its own shoutout--absolutely incredible! It's packed with flavor and honestly good enough that you could enjoy it on its own. It really takes everything to the next level. If you're looking for authentic-style tacos with great flavor, fresh ingredients, fast service, and awesome specials, Tacos Tijuana is a must-visit. Easily one of my top spots in the area!
