    finally a Taco shop opened in this area, The shopping center located on a busy corner of Longley and McCarren. Expectations, although the service was impeccable the veggie and chicken options were not. Price is avg for a taco at 2.50, we got a couple tacos; chicken and potato something. Do not recommend either, pastor and chicken is flavorless and was shredded. I even asked if it was grilled at the least. Loaded Nachos were okay left a lot to be desired especially for $15.00. chicken was at least grilled but again no flavor. cheese was at least nacho cheese, jalapeño's were not fresh either. they have many other meat options but I either don't eat them or don't have any desire to try them. Hopefully they improve.

    Always big burritos. The interior is pretty small so I generally order mine for pick up. The flavor is always on point and doesn't disappoint when I introduce it to my friends.

    Solid little taco shop in our neighborhood. Been meaning to try it since it opened several months ago and I'm glad we finally did. Ordered the breakfast torta and an order of 5 fried shredded beef tacos or taquitos that came with rice and beans. Both were packed with flavor. The tacos, though simply prepared, were very crispy and topped with a tasty blend of shredded lettuce, crema, and cojita cheese. The torta is absolutely loaded with a variety of meats, and topped with an egg just to reassure you it counts as breakfast (or any time really)! The service was fine, quick and polite to take my to-go order. It took a few minute longer than expected, but the authentic quality and taste will remind you some things are worth waiting a little longer. There's only seating for a couple families inside this no-frills little shop, so likely plan to order ahead for pickup or take out. Regardless, the space is clean and inviting for the time you are there. Will definitely be back to try any combination of the 20 or so options they have on their menu. Most items are between $10-15.

    Formerly a taco truck (and a highly regarded one, at that), Tacos La Bufa just opened in the old Lunchbox location on Longley and I'm thrilled to have them in the neighborhood! Tried them for the first time today, ordering six different large tacos; namely: asada, lengua, buche, tripitas, flor de calabaza and huitlacoche. And what a treat these were! The tacos come neatly prepared with sliced radish, marinated onions, grilled peppers, limes and either spicy or mild salsa (I had the mild, which was a salsa verde with nice bite to it). Two corn tortillas supply an ample foundation to this feast. The asada was juicy, albeit a standard preparation, the lengua was both tender and flavorful. The tripitas (or buche...not sure as we inhaled these so quickly), however, was outstanding! Fatty, juicy, tender little nuggets of offally goodness, I could scarf down a good half dozen of these! (Side note: I plan to go back tomorrow to clarify if these were indeed tripitas tacos and I'll update accordingly.) And what I think was the buche was a crispy little treat as well. The flor de calabaza was outstanding. Tart, soft and melt-in-your-mouth tender, these lightly sauteed veggie tacos blew my mind. Who knew rabbit food tacos could be so dang good?!? The huitlacoche was tasty in its own right, providing a musty, heady mess of corn smut and onions. What excites me so much is that these guys aren't doing old taqueria standards, they're reaching for new heights with exciting ingredients, flavors and preparations. I'm excited to return and try more!

    The hunt for a go to taco in South Reno will continue. I wanted to get a good representation of flavors so I ordered three separate tacos. The tacos are average size for the $2.50 price and are filled with a fair amount of meat. First, I tried the asada. The meat was flavorless. Luckily, lunch came with a salt pack, I think intended for the chopped radish, but served well on the asada taco. The tortillas were fried and warm, and did not fall apart while eating as many do. Doused in a generous amount of salsa verde, the taco was ok. Second, I ate the carnitas taco, which followed the theme of no seasoning. After a squeeze of lime and more salsa verde, there was nothing notable about the taco, but down the hatch it went. Last, I enjoyed the chicharrón taco. I had asked the young man taking my order what chicharrón was. His answer was an expression of "I don't know" and he said it was beef, pressed. Haha, I am pretty sure what I got was pork belly. This taco did not require any additions to give it zest and I enjoyed each bite. They do offer many other meat options, including tripitas, intestine. I couldn't bring myself to try this here.

    The asada (steak) tacos hit the spot! Glad I discovered this place! I enjoyed the music in the background, as well as the welcoming service :) Yummm

    My friends and I had been wanting to try Ana's Taco Grill for a while, so when my birthday landed…read moreon Taco Tuesday, it finally felt meant to be. First off, huge shoutout to the staff at both locations. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a group of about 12 showing up and ordering at different times, plus another large party there, and they handled it all really well. The patio has such a great Midtown vibe, and I'm always happy supporting local small businesses. We ordered a little bit of everything: ribeye gorditas with homemade tortillas, street tacos, quesadillas, loaded papas, elote, and I even attempted the AYCE tacos. The carnitas was some of my favorite in town, the guac was delicious, and my friend loved the skirt steak tacos. Plus, the three salsas they serve are all so good. Tacos are always subjective, but I'd absolutely recommend giving Ana's a try because there's something for everyone on the menu. The cocktails are fun too, and I'll definitely be back.

Upon walking in,I was impressed with the patrons,this was a no frills crowd who looked like they were all in on a secret that this place was going to be a really good foodie spot.This is one of those spots where u walk up and order at the counter and they bring your food out to you.I loved the decor as you can really tell the owners are proud of their Jalisco roots.As an added bonus-I do tend to like taquerias that have pics of the menu items on the walls-always been a good luck charm for me that the place would be pretty good. We ordered a few things-A Super Burrito with Al Pastor($13.50)-it was pretty tasty-way way filling-killed my buzz totally-which I guess was the goal-I'd order it again for sure.We Also got a Shrimp taco($5)My wife is from Jalisco,so kinda picky with her Mexican food but she thought it was pretty tasty-one of the most flavorful tacos she has had in a long time.We also got the 2 enchilada plate with ground beef and chicken($15.50)-This dish came with rice and bean-I really liked the rice quite a bit and beans went well with the chips because of the added cheese on the beans.One thing I didn't love was the fact that you had to pay for chips and salsa-I'm sure I'm just spoiled from all the places that gives those out for free but I guess that's the way it goes-pretty sure it was like $3-no biggie. In closing-if u ever find yourself in Reno and u want something other than the commercial stuff they sell in the casinos-I would highly recommend walking across the street from Silver Legacy and walk into this little hole in the wall hidden gem of a restaurant and enjoy yourself a taste of Jalisco -you won't be disappointed.

The bread arrives with that perfect crusty exterior and airy interior that holds up beautifully once it's "drowned" in the vibrant, slightly spicy tomato-chile sauce. The pork inside is tender and flavorful, and the balance of acidity, heat, and richness feels fresh rather than heavy. It tastes remarkably close to what you'd find in Jalisco, which makes it feel genuinely authentic rather than a watered-down version for tourists. We also got tacos dorados de papa and those were pretty amazing too. The micheladas and chavelas are just as impressive. They're crisp, well-seasoned, and perfectly chilled, with just the right amount of lime, spice, and salt on the rim. They pair incredibly well with the tortas and make the whole meal feel even more special. On top of the food and drinks, the service really elevates the experience. The staff is attentive, friendly, and clearly proud of what they serve, checking in just enough without hovering. Overall, it's a spot that delivers on flavor, authenticity, and hospitality, making it a standout choice for anyone craving great Mexican comfort food. Will definitely be coming back.
