    was pleasantly surprised when the grande lunch special arrived after receiving the pequeño margarita for nearly the same price ... agua próximo!

    I don't live in Wasilla, so first time visit. Walking in, I thought of a local taco spot...fyi not a bad thing. I didn't know what I wanted, so I asked the cashier for her opinion on what I was deciding...very helpful and I didn't feel rushed. I placed my order, took a number and chose my seat. Loved the yellow booths, really made it pop. I ordered a southwest salad because I'm trying to watch my weight haha. My 7 y/o daughter wanted 2 tacos, so I didn't get a kids plate. Why did I listen to her? She ate 1 and maybe a few spoonfuls of rice. Anyway, maybe 3 mins of finding our seat, someone brought out chips. The different types of salsa and sliced limes were by the door (convenient for people staying or taking). The waiter brought out an activity sheet with crayons too. As I was sitting, they had the Mexican music going and the football on. Felt like a bar, but family vibe with a Mexican flair. Now to the food, it was delivered to the table in less than 10 minutes of placing the order. My salad was delicious (no brownness besides my chicken) and I took a bite of my daughter's shrimp taco along with the rice and beans to share in this review. It was white rice instead of the other Mexican rice I'm used to, but it was good. My daughter loved all of it also. To top it off, my daughter spotted the balloons by the door. She asked one of the waitress and she told her she could choose one. That topped it off for her!! Stop by and experience the family vibe in a nice local restaurant that's within the normal AK price range. Sorry, I thought about reviewing after we began eating, so just a mixture of to go plate.

    Yes I did get extra consumme and yes I drank it like juice.

    Holy freaking smokes dude, their food is so fire I literally sit here and have a fatgirlfoodgasm it's just insane if I could have the birria at tacos everyday of my life... I'd be the happiest and thiccest person in the world. The consumme is divine holy moly man I love this place. Well goodness, I forgot to take a picture before I ate it but i guess I could show you the empty container? Haha The staff is always super duper friendly, and it's just a chill environment.

    4.5 stars Came here on a Saturday night and this place was popping. My dining companions went for the taco salad and the halibut tacos (which was a lot more food than they were expecting and prices a little above average than at home, but that's normal), with a pretty extensive menu. I was trying to decide between the mangonada and the chocoflan and asked the girl at the counter which one she preferred. While the chocoflan was a little bit more around $10, she said this batch of mangonada tasted a little more like lime. The chocoflan was a good portion size and had a layer of chocolate cake on the bottom and was covered in pecans and caramel. 2025 #13

    Carne asada tacos

    Cute restaurant, with large windows to check out the beautiful mountains surrounding Palmer / Wasilla. So you walk in, check out the menu board, and order at the front register. There's a salsa bar to pick out whatever you're in the mood for. As soon as you sit, someone brings you a large portion of chips. Shortly after that our entrees were delivered. The start of the show was definitely the carne asada fries. The tortillas holding my tacos didn't taste that good- fresh or reheated. But over all excellent flavor on everything ordered. I enjoyed my restaurant experience!

    Ordered takeout. The food here is very consistent and always delicious. Salsa bar and selection is awesome. A solid spot for Mexican cuisine in Wasilla. Friendly and fast service too!

    Carne Asada tacos, the side of rice and beans. Chips and three types of salsa/limes.

    Tacos in Alaska. I know, I had my doubts too. But you would be missing out if you skipped Tacos Cancun. Service: The restaurant is clean and well maintained, with both indoor and outdoor seating. I can imagine it being a great hangout spot in the summer. You order at the counter, get a number, and then choose your own seat. There is plenty of booth and table seating. Staff is regularly cleaning and bussing tables. The people at the counter are friendly and quick to take your order. They have a clear and organized system, and they appear to offer DoorDash as well. Just be aware that there is a small surcharge for debit or credit card purchases. Food came out in about five minutes. Food: There were several items on the menu that caught my attention including lengua, fish tacos, and the two chile rellenos plate. I went with a classic choice this time and ordered carne asada tacos with a side of rice and beans, plus chips and salsa and a fountain Diet Coke. The total was about 25 dollars with an 18 percent tip. The Diet Coke tasted right from the fountain. There is a small but strong salsa bar. My personal favorite was the thick molcajete salsa. They also had mild, medium, hot, and green hot salsas. I tried them all and was pleasantly surprised. I recommend using the molcajete for your chips and the green salsa for your tacos. Everything was as hearty and spicy as you want it to be. On the salsa bar, there were also lime wedges, jalapeños, ranch, and a small selection of condiments like mustard and mayo packets. Now, about the chips. This is usually a big deciding factor for me at any taco spot. These looked solid. I am not sure if they are made in-house, but they appear to be white corn chips. They are kept warm at the front in heaters and served fresh to your table. As for the rice and beans, I probably would not order them again. Not because they were bad, just because I personally do not love rice and beans like that. The rice was good, red, and tomato-based. Not too soggy but also not super fluffy. The beans were fried and topped with what looked like two kinds of cheese, possibly cheddar and jack. Concerns: I do not have any major concerns. Just be aware that around 8 PM it got very busy. The line went out the door. This is not a complaint about how they run things. It is more of a heads-up. Would I come back? Would I change anything? Yes, I will definitely be back for lunch or dinner. Next time, I will skip the rice and beans and order a third taco à la carte. Nothing against the rice and beans, I just prefer more tacos. Overall: By the end of my meal, the line was healthy and stretching outside. I have driven by many times and often see the place packed. Based on this visit, it makes sense. Around 7:30 PM seemed like a good time to get in before the rush. Solid tacos, fast service, and definitely a place worth revisiting.

    I have always viewed Mr. Taco as a reliable place to have a tasty lunch in Wasilla but unlike most…read morerestaurants locally that loose their focus on customer satisfaction, I am finding this place gets better every time!!! I strongly recommend thier deluxe burritos. -I always get the shredded beef but understand other meats are just as good. You really have to think about your meal, every detail is fresh and put together well. The rice falls apart but isn't stiff, the salsa bar has wonderful variety and they never look at me odd when I keep piling more on. The service is and has always been very friendly, super fast, and they keep the restaurant so clean that I always avoid leaving spills or crumbs just as a small thank you. To the owner: Your staff makes this place the most reliably wonderful experience I have known in the valley. Thank you!

    Here's the paradox…read more It's a Mexican restaurant, taqueria style, with the kitchen staff speaking Spanish and the stereo playing country music. Country seemed weird. This is like Hank Williams, George Straight, Garth Brooks style country. Maybe I'm weird and they are spot on. Who knows? The food was out quite fast, which was great. I've never had a place put a chip in the beans so the overlapping taco shells don't get soggy. That was a huge win! It's the small things. The salsa bar was great. I really enjoyed the kick of the hot and green ones. The mild tasted a little weird. The tacos were tasty, the rice and beans slightly above average and solidly portioned. The staff at the register attentive and friendly. The dining room could handle a variety of four person groups and could easily be situated to accommodate larger parties of probably 8-12.

It's nice and modern looking, and doesn't have the usual annoyingly loud Mexican music that is present in some places. There's lots of TV's showing sports, and quite decent music playing on the speakers. They have a very nice feature fireplace too. I ordered 2 crispy tacos with ground beef and french fries, (my benchmark, with which i will judge the quality of your food) and husband got the posole. I'm not even kidding, i thought Taco King was fast service, but this beat even them. This is fast food, in a non fast food setting. It was lovely and warm, as i had a heater right next to my seat. Anyway, the food. It wasn't bad. Definitely not the best I've had, and also not the worst. The round beef was ok, but maybe a tad heavy on the cumin. I do love cumin, but i prefer it to be balanced where it's indistinguishable from other spices, and in this taco beef, it was cumin forward. That being said, I'd eat it again over fast food any day. It's the service that made me give an extra star. Our server was friendly, fast, and helpful. And the place was nice, just what we needed after a long, aching back drive to -42 degree Cantwell and back, with a hair-raising skid along the way. I forgot to even take pictures, sorry. It was just that kind of a day.
