Tacos

Got the 6 tacos with half pastor and half asada. This little taco place is a gem. The tortillas are authentic Mexican corn tortillas, this definitely makes the tacos 100%. The cheese, avocado, and grilled onion along with lime complete the "icing on the cake" I will be coming back and I will be bringing more friends along this time. In addition to the 6 tacos I also asked for an horchata (which tasted homemade) and charro beans (also homemade) all for under $10! You can't beat that!

My family and I were introduced to Tacos de Marcelo by our pastor. We have been going since then from San Benito (August 2016). Their parking is pretty tight, hours are great, place is usually busy (at least the times we've gone). The servers are friendly/helpful. We haven't had any issues with any, except for the attendee at the front who usually takes our payment. She seems a tad rude and seems to just want us out of the way, not wanting to build rapport with us at all. We usually order tacos and quesadillas. There has never been an issue with our orders. (The tacos of tripa are delicious, especially if you order them crispy!) They have lemonade and horchata, which are our go to drinks. Pretty decent place.

After 10 years of not going, they're still bomb! If they tasted good before, they taste even better now! Way better than Ultimo Taco, hands down!

A Hidden Gem of Authentic Mexican Flavor and Elevated Hospitality…read more If you're searching for a truly unforgettable dining experience, look no further than this incredible spot. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and enthusiasm that set the tone for an exceptional evening. Let's talk about the food: the grilled octopus was nothing short of perfection--expertly charred on the outside, tender on the inside, and paired beautifully with fresh, vibrant microgreens. Every bite was a masterclass in balance and flavor, showcasing the kind of culinary skill that can only come from recipes passed down through generations. The authentic Mexican flavors here are deeply rooted in tradition, yet elevated with a modern touch. It's clear the chef-owner has honed their craft under Michelin-starred mentors. That level of expertise comes through in every dish--from the nuanced seasoning to the thoughtful plating. And then there's the drink: La Paloma de Mi Corazón--hands down one of the most refreshing, clean-tasting cocktails I've ever had. Bartender Benito is a true artist behind the bar, blending flavors with precision and passion. He absolutely rocked that drink! The customer service was exceptional throughout. Attentive without being overbearing, every staff member made us feel genuinely cared for. It's rare to find a restaurant where both the front and back of house operate in perfect harmony. Whether you're a local foodie or just passing through, this place is a must-visit. Authentic, elevated, and unforgettable. Can't wait to come back.

The most important part is that if you ask for water you will get FIGI water because Brownsville water has contaminants that are EPA approved but in the long run not safe.
