    Cheesy Poblano Birria and Pastor Birria
    Michelle B.

    Stopped in to celebrate cinco de mayo with friends. They had great specials for the day. The mango frozen margarita took long enough that we had all the food out first. But it was good flavor. Not too sweet. As shown, the elite is definitely not what their social media was advertising. It had a good flavor behind it but wish it was a larger portion. The poblano birria and pastor were definitely both tasty. Decent amount of food on the each. Overall we were decently happy. Cashier was nice about everything. The restaurant was freezing so I do recommend a sweatshirt.

    Tacos are decent missing a little flavor I only tried breakfast and the burrito. All good was freshly made salsas are good . The flavor on the tacos just wasn't there still enjoyed them . I highly recommend for any taco lovers . Service was quick and ambiance chill . They are not stingy with there servings that is great .

    Beef Fajita Taco with Salsa Verde.
    Ericka S.

    I haven't been to Tacos A Go Go in years, and now I am not only remembering it fondly, but also determined to support it more. What's cool is it's near Double Trouble and Sig's Lagoon--so one could make an afternoon or early evening out of visiting these different establishments. I just wanted a beef fajita taco and bought a chicken quesadilla for a family member. The taco was great and so were the salsas--my favorite, as always, being salsa verde. I thought the quality of the beef was really good. Service was great. 5/5

    Carne Guisada Egg and bacon

    It was good. I love that they have breakfast tacos all day. The tacos came out quickly. The agua frescas were good. Inside is cute. The cashier was fine. Not mean and not overly nice. Just ok. All in all, pretty good.

    I went to Tacos a go go with a friend based on strong recommendations from another friend who lives in Houston and it was a big hit. We got a breakfast taco, horchata, beef birria tacos, and a trio of carne asada, carnitas, and (I think) refried beans tacos. Everything was so good! We sat outside for the weather and really enjoyed our time there. There was a bit of a wait for the food but good food takes time and staff were polite. This is an ideal casual dining spot.

    Pollo Guisado Pastor Taco Verde Crispy Beyond "Chicken" Taco - Vegetarians
    Kimberly H.

    I've been to this Tacos A Go Go a few times and it's a pretty solid taco place. I think the pricing is reasonable and my friends and I usually get full off of just two tacos. - Pollo Guisado (1.5/5): I always forget I don't like this taco and accidentally order it because it is listed as "A taco you must eat before you die". Personally, I don't understand the hype and I always regret ordering it. I find it to be very dry and lacking in flavor. Chicken tacos are usually dry in general, so I'm not too up in arms about that, but the flavor is just so weak. I feel like all I'm tasting is the tortilla when I'm eating it. - Pastor Taco (4/5): Tacos A Go Go makes a pretty solid pastor taco. Their pastor taco is very juicy and has a good tangy flavor. I like how they double-layer the tortilla so that the sauces don't seep through and make a mess. Overall just a pretty solid pastor taco. Service/Ambiance: This is a chill sit-down place to get tacos. It's never too crowded and there's plenty of seating. The restaurant is also very nicely decorated, which creates a really fun ambiance. I also like how they leave a bunch of different types of salsas and hot sauces out for people to use. Overall, the tacos here are pretty good for the price and it's a nice place to go if you want to have a sit-down meal! Also, don't get the Pollo Guisado!

    Brisket Taco
    Tiffany N.

    I love these tacos. This should be your go to take out taco when you are down in the financial district. The place itself in one of the tunnel food courts. The restaurant is small with limited seating, but the food has flavors that are bold and the tacos are large. The food is delivered quickly, lines move fast, the staff is friendly but always busy. Everything is absolutely delicious. My recommendations are the shrimp and the brisket taco.

    What are the margaritas made with if y'all don't serve liquor?

    Tequila! We do serve alcohol at all locations except our One Shell Plaza location in the downtown tunnels. :)

    Do you still have puffy tacos? If so, when and at what locations?

    I’m sorry we don’t. :( While we had some die-hard fans, they just didn’t sell that well.

    I heard they don't serve liquor but have mimosas... do they serve the mimosas through late night?

    Yes. Until 2 am on Friday and Saturday nights. Sangria too. As well as beer of course!

    Is there somewhere to park?

    Street parking is usually available but why risk a parking ticket or worse when the Mid Main Parking Garage is just across the street. Cheap parking if you're gonna stay and eat, but if you're just picking up a take out order , the parking garage…

Inside it is a one room eatery with counter service. My first visit was to try the Birria Burrito for $16 with the meal delivered about 10 minutes later. It consisted of their Birria meat cooked for 4 hours mixed with chorizo, cheese, rice, beans and sour cream all wrapped in a large flour tortilla seasoned with their special red colored seasoning. With the meal came a cup of consomne'. Guy Fieri would say, Welcome to Flavortown! It was delicious. The Birria beef was so tender and the flavored flour tortilla with that proprietary red seasoning they use was perfect. It was a very filling meal and well worth the price. So much so, I thought about it the next day. Another visit was to try one of their specialities, the Quesabirria for $14. This meal consisted of 3 grilled and crispy corn tortillas seasoned again with their special red colored magic dust. The tortillas had the delicious Birria meat and cheese inside and I again loved them. The tortillas are only slightly crispy and the meat, cheese and tortillas memorable. This meal also came with a cup of consommé for dipping. Another nice thing about eating here is the customer service. The lady at the counter was very friendly and helpful. The guy bussing the tables acted more like the owner than an employee with his helpfulness and the actual manager came out to check on us. Impressive for a counter service restaurant. Tacos Dona Lena deserves its reputation as one of the best restaurants of its kind. Incredible food and employees all at very reasonable prices.

We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing.

The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers.

They have salsa set out at the counter, so you can pack as much as you like. The red salsa was smoky and SPICY. Very tasty if you like spice I see a lot of great reviews about this place. I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me

Finding authentic TJ flavor in Texas (not Tex-Mex) was a welcome surprise! Our carne asada was grilled al carbón and you could taste the char! Juicy carne full of flavor, thin but strong and tasty tortillas (they really held everything together well), perfect chunky guac (not too fancy or full of fillers--IYKYK), and a variety of delicious salsas and hot sauces! An added bonus was the complimentary chicharrones! I'll take those over tortilla chips any day! The dining room isn't very big, but it's clean and has good a/c....there's an outdoor patio as well.

There's even a security guard on site, which only adds to the impression that this place is fire. So when I happened to drive by on a 100-degree afternoon and found no line, I took it as a sign to finally give it a try. The small parking lot adjacent to the truck was nearly empty, except for a few other patrons who probably had the same idea. Ordering was simple and to the point. The menu keeps things straightforward: a selection of meats served as tacos or plates with a handful of sides. I ordered two barbacoa tacos with salsa verde. Less than two minutes after placing my order, they were in my hands. Fast service on a scorching day is always appreciated. With no seating available, I retreated to the comfort of my car to eat. Based on the amount of grease packed into these tacos, I would recommend doing the same. Eating them while standing could end with your shirt becoming an unintended side dish. One thing to note: don't count on a generous napkin supply. I realized after returning to my car that none were included. Consider keeping a few emergency fast-food napkins in your glove compartment. Those leftover Taco Bell napkins may finally fulfill their destiny. The barbacoa was flavorful, the salsa verde complemented it well, and overall, the tacos were overall tasty. That said, I left somewhat underwhelmed considering the crowds I routinely see gathered here during lunch and dinner hours. Perhaps I'm missing the standout item that keeps customers lining up daily. Even so, if you happen to have cash in your pocket and find yourself craving authentic tacos, this truck is certainly worth a stop.

There's a parking lot, but we went on the weekend, and while the interior didn't look overly full, it was somewhat difficult to find a parking spot. The restaurant itself is clean. Everything is pretty much green and white. There's covered patio seating. You order from a window and there's a large menu printed nearby The menu offers all sorts of tacos, meats, burritos, bowls, quesadillas, quesabirras, sides, and even kids meals. You can get beer, margaritas, and non-alcoholic drinks. There's also a breakfast menu The food was good, and it didn't take too long to come out. My main issue was the service. The individual taking orders seemed to have a bit of an attitude and just seemed "over it." Furthermore, we mentioned having a queso coupon and when we were given the total I placed my card on the reader and I was told that I did it too fast and the queso wasn't taken off. The odd thing was, we walked away and realized that they didn't add the queso and the coupon was for free queso so they could have just rung up an additional queso. This individual had the vibe of eye rolling everything, and it honestly left a bad taste in my mouth Some tips: You can order online to avoid any wait. Just go up to the pick-up window when it's supposed to be ready for a painless interaction There's a little bar area where you can get pre-packaged (to-go) salsas, pickled onions, limes, etc etc etc. the salsas are tomatillo, habanero, and jalapeño (I believe) You can order margaritas to go, which we did! Cheers!!
