    Dry & overcooked corn.
    Nichole O.

    I've eaten here for a very long time. It's been hit or miss when it comes to quality. Came into the restaurant today and got tacos and ezquite. Tacos were so greasy the tortillas could not even hold together because of it & the corn was so over cooked it was hard and just not good. Disappointed that they do not care to send out food like this. Especially after spending $18 for it.

    Elote!

    Hijo la pistola! Ok, this place has been around a bit, but I wasn't able to go because of drama with the kid and her ex. Anyway, decided I was just gonna go. So glad I did. So, you order at the front and they bring your food out. We ordered the quesa birria tacos and elote. We also got the kids quesadilla and rice and beans. Start with the negative. Not sure what beans these are supposed to be, but they are pale white and runny. Not very good. Good news, that's the only thing we have found that we don't like! The quesa birria tacos are juicy, crunchy, and cheesey and packed full of flavor. Make sure to get onion, lime, cilantro, salsa and radishes from the condiment bar! The elote is also good. I think it is steamed or boiled as it doesn't have the char that the roasted elote would have. Still very good though! Excellent spot though. Will be going back for sure!

    I found another hidden gem. Hidden to me anyway..... Delicious food! Flavorful Pastor, crispy cheesy Birria tacos. Creamy Street Corn with all that stinky sprinkled cheese goodness at the bottom of the cup. And a salsa bar!! Small comfy spot. Fast and all very Authentic. Friendly staff and simple menu. They had a build your own taco bowl, which I love when I'm going easy on carbs. Yummmy everything. I cant wait to try the street tacos. Great spot to visit in Oakwood.

    Absolutely love getting takeout from Taco Madre every time I'm in the area! The tacos are amazing and always come with red sauce, green sauce, limes, and a bag of onions/cilantro/radish. My favorites are definitely the carnitas, al pastor, and lengua. All 3 of these meats are always flavorful and tender without being over cooked while the carne asada has been too tough at times. The sides are also amazing here including the nachos, the seasoned street corn, and the nacho fries. The fries are always amazingly seasoned despite not being crunchy due to the ingredients within the bowl it always packs a flavorful punch. My only gripe about taco madre is the ever increasing prices, but what can you do in this economy? I will continue coming here on a monthly basis!

    Churro with caramel

    This was my first time trying Taco Madre. I ordered the birria tacos and the churro with caramel. I also had the cucumber and lime drink. Service was very quick. All flavors were delicious. You get to add your own toppings to your tacos. My churro was harder in texture than I typically prefer, but tasted good. I will definitely be back to try more options from the menu.

    Good a** food around Oakwood

    Birria Pizza
    Rachel M.

    Birria Pizza was very good. I have personal opinion about the consome. I like a richer, meatier flavor but overall, this dish still deserves 5 stars.

    So far so good. I've just about ordered half the menu and everything is pretty good. I'll continue to try new entrées and keep yelp posted.

    Birria tacos and chips

    Awesome spot!!! I took my dad here for his first birria tacos and it did not disappoint. I'm from the city and I've had a hard time finding birria tacos but this place is well worth the drive. The staff was so nice, service was quick despite the restaurant being pretty full, and the food was incredible. Typical order at the counter/take a number type place, but there was plenty of seating for those who want to eat there. Football on the tv. The tacos were piping hot and the consomme was some of the best I've ever tasted. Definitely recommend this place!

    It's hard to find a Mexican spot with a menu that excites you, Taco Madre does that. They have a fun menu with plenty of options. Their food is always fresh and it doesn't take tok long to come out. Their staff is friendly and their tables are spacious. Don't underestimate this spot, give them a try with a drink of their horchata.... it is delicious!!

    This is my absolute favorite spot for mexican food! They don't stay open late but it is family…read morefriendly and always pleasant. Depending on the season, festive atmosphere. They go out of their way to make this establishment stand out and feel so homely. This is definitely my family's favorite place to go for dinner or even lunch when we are in the mood for delicious, fresh and fast Mexican food. Everything they serve is freshly made or prepared right in front of you. They have buzzers for guests if the line gets long so you know when to come pick up your order. You can dine in one of 3 different areas; 2 inside or the patio outside. They also have the option of fountain drinks ( with free refills) or can/bottled drinks ( some imported). I can't say enough good things about this place, i really love their taco salads and corn ( you can order it on the cob or in the cup). They are also careful of the spice level and will customize it to whatever you like. They have alot of items on the menu i may eventually try them all.

    We were in Gainesville and I popped into Yelp to see what was good in the area. This was on our…read moreway home so we stopped in for a quick dinner. It looks like a sit down restarant when. You first walk in, but you actually order at the counter and find a seat. We had a couple of carne asada tacos and nacho fries. The tacos come plain, so I moseyed on over to the salsa bar and got my own onion, cilantro and lime. My daughter loved her fries. Food came out pretty quickly, but as soon as we ordered it got pretty busy so I am glad we arrived when we did. The only thing I didn't like was the CMT Music Videos blasting throughout. Seemed like the wrong type of vibe for that place if you know what I mean. Anywho, I wouldn't drive back the 30 minutes to eat there, but I wouldn't drive certainly stop by if in the area.

And then had an interaction with the younger waitress who had absolutely zero customer service skills, but once my actual waitress, the older lady showed up she was extremely nice and courteous, and was probably one of the best waitresses I've had at any restaurant in a long time. The chips and salsa were actually phenomenal, the cheese dip wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't special. I then got the enchilada plate which the cheese in it was really good. However, the enchilada gravy kind of just tasted like marinara sauce. The price wasn't bad in the atmosphere was good and the service was quick. But overall, it seemed like a majority of the waitresses and waiters in there do not belong being waitresses and waiters. However, I did not catch the name of the older waitress that I had but she was phenomenal.
