    Vegetarian taco options: Flower Child (cauliflower), Tree Huger (broccoli), Backfire (black bean) and Boylan root beer.
    Natalie R.

    I don't live in Rochester but I travel here regularly for work. I've been to Taco JED a couple times and most recently ordered delivery from Uber Eats to my hotel room for dinner. They have three vegetarian taco options Flower Child (cauliflower), Tree Huger (broccoli) and Backfire (black bean). I ordered one of each and they were all delicious! You can modify/customize each taco by removing or adding toppings and selecting corn or flour tortilla. All my tacos were made correctly per my modifications. The tacos were also packed with care and labeled well. They have Boylan root beer too. Will definitely order from them again!

    Amazing tacos, great atmosphere, and the service was top notch. We've been there several times and will continue to go back!!!!!!!!!!

    Shrimp and chicken tacos on corn tortillas
    Jacqui P.

    The guacamole was perfection! I also had the fried shrimp and chicken tacos, which were both good. Jed had corn tortillas, which were awesome. I look forward to trying them again.

    The back area looking out to the outdoor patio and the main dining area. The back is where to be.

    I am always looking for a great taco joint that has a good vibe (music, walls, and a little divey), excellent variety of tacos, and various salsas to enjoy with the tacos or with chips. This definitely fits the bill. I ordered the walleye taco (because we are in MN) and the picadillo taco (Walter style). The walleye tacos was so good. Perfect crisp with great surrounding fixings. The picadillo had a solid amount of meat with a corresponding layer of toppings. Both really good. The chips and salsa were good and various salsa allowed for customising the heat index and therefore the experience in your mouth. Both tacos were good with, and without, the salsa so choose your poison. The service was quick and polite. I did not have a drink (had water) though they have a full bar with a variety of local beers on tap and mixed drinks to be had.

    Chips and guac

    We had a great first experience at Taco Jed. The menu is simple, all tacos with a few sides. There's plenty of seating inside, as well as outdoor seating for the warmer months. The chips and guacamole were good. The chips were served warm, light and crispy. Winner. The guac could have used just a touch more seasoning but was solid. The Piccadillo with queso served on top was stellar. The shrimp tacos were also quite good. My favorite was the flower child, which was very well done especially for a vegetarian option. The blackfire was also an excellent vegetarian option. Servings are generous, 2-3 tacos are plenty. Service was friendly. Make sure you stop in and try Taco Jeds.

    Amazing food. Very low key place, it definitely shows they put all the effort into the food. Very friendly staff, quick service, and amazing food. The place is easy to find, and a joy when you get there. Only bad thing....music was a little intrusive, but that is just me. You might like the rocking tunes.

I'm in town on a business trip and did a Google search for street tacos, because it's better than the chain restaurants I always see.... The food truck is parked in a motel parking lot, south of downtown Rochester on Broadway. The menu is slim, but that's okay because they do it right even when the "feels like" temperature is 7 degrees! My Birria tacos had crisp shells, two different salsas, limes, moist delicious slow roasted meat, and a rich consommé for dipping. I ate them like I hadn't eaten all day and I savored the broth like it was liquid gold. If you live in Rochester, you're damn lucky you have Mi OAXAQUENA in town!

If you dine-in, you get chips and free sauces which is a fairly new concept to me. We got the 4 tacos and ramen which was more than enough for two. Tacos were flavorful and done well. Ramen looked oily and heavy but it wasn't too bad. The ramen noodles itself was a bit too soft so a thicker brand may have absorbed the noodles better. All minor things. Look forward to visiting again and trying other menu items!

The Vampiritos caught my eye on the Coronas Tacos menu and I kept coming back to wanting those! My BFF and my spouse both love Mexican food so we did have expectations. The Super Vampiritos with Beef when dipped into the au jus are the best things I have ever eaten. My BFF said that the Chimichanga with Chicken was good. He would eat it again if it was in front of him but he would order something else because the chicken was bland. Probably barbacoa. My spouse had specific descriptions for a veggie bowl and taco. They tried and met some of the asks but missed a couple as well. We purchased a bowl of corn to share and it had no flavor to it at all. Barely even corn flavor. However, the flan was awesome. I was very happy with my meal but taking into account the entire party's experience of the food, I would give 3 stars, but it was FAST and they really tried to meet the special requirements ... So I give them 4 stars.

    I love this restaurant! I'm not saying that I love everything on the menu, there isn't one single…read morerestaurant out there that I can say that about though, not even the one I drive 2 hrs to Menominee for. Giliberto's has some pretty amazing gems that none of the other Mexican restaurants in Roch have. if you have been disappointed with or never tried this place I recommend the Chilaquiles, i like it with the verde/green sauce and add bacon, it's soooo good. But you can choose red sauce and add a different meat, or go no meat. If you're more in the mood for tacos, I was very impressed with their birria tacos. They had plenty of onions, cilantro, and the limes on the side. I love this version of Birria, it wasnt a sopping mess and still full of flavor. My go to burrito is the Adobada, but I do recommend to ask for some lime on the side because it's even better with the lime juice. They have a grood Shrimp cocktail, and for dessert the flan has never disappointed me. I do really love the mango with the chamoy and Tajín, however I have had some pretty under ripe mango once, but fruit can be tough to get in perfect season. I've had a few dishes I was not fond of, but you know, even if I pick something off the menu at let's say Bdubs, or McDonald's, or Texas road house and I don't like it, that isn't going to stop me from going back to order the food that I do like. I know the last few months have been hard for this restaurant, I really do not want to see Roch lose them. Again, there isn't another restaurant in Roch that I have found that makes some of these recipes. So if you have a chance to try them out, or give them a second chance, maybe try some of the items I mentioned. Hope you enjoy what you try
