    Salsa, queso and chips
    Jenelle B.

    Such great flavor from an unassuming place! We started with the queso, salsa and chips. The queso was a thick, white cheese with a few diced tomatoes. Very simple and very tasty! The salsa also was on the thicker side and had some nice chunks of onion and cilantro. Carne asada street taco had lovely little diced radishes and great flavor. Grilled shrimp tacos wey was a generous portion of shrimp with a creamy sauce and queso fresca. So good! The street corn was also a highlight. Can't wait to come back and try to daily specials!

    Birria Tacos Plate and Birria Fries
    Karla M.

    This is my 5th time coming here and it's just as delicious as the first time I came. Their birria is so juicy and flavorful. This spot is definitely in my top 3 of where to get Birria in St. Louis. The birria fries are soooo delicious as well, I highly recommend giving that a try if it's your first time here! The service from the counter was very friendly and it didn't take long at all to receive our food. Theres usually always some good music playing too at a decent volume, it might be a little much for those who gets easily overwhelmed but overall doesn't detract from the overall dining experience!

    Birrata nachos
    lynn s.

    I ordered the birrata nachos For delivery which took along time they were cold had they been hot I think I would've loved them Chips were soggy

    First time here and ordered "Wey" too much. But I like trying little bit of everything. From left to right Chips and salsa - good tasting salsa and chips were thick but light, almost hollow. Fish taco- probably best thing today. The fish was lightly bettered, like tempura. Hot center. Wey style street taco el pastor- tons of meat and hint of sweetness from the pineapple. Only issue gone in about 3 bites.. lol. Beef tostada- these folks blew my mind and not sure why other restaurants don't do it, but they melt a layer of cheers in boiler over the shell then top with meat and dressings. This way the shell stays hard the whole meal. To top it off, a Mexican Coke.... I'll be wired the rest of the day. Over all great experience and I'll be back. Also the Verda salsa in the bottle... yum

    Quesabirria tacos with side of refried beans
    Claralyn B.

    Excellent street tacos at Tacos Wey! I ordered the Quesabirria tacos and my boyfriend ordered the Tacos Al Pastor. We shared the dishes plus a side of refried beans. Light cilantro came through on the Quesabirria and refreshing pineapple was tasty in the Tacos Al Pastor. Birria meat was nice and hot plus well spiced. Try the hot salsa too! Ambiance is colorful and I liked the Mexican recorded music. Service was prompt and we were eating in less than 10 minutes after ordering our dinner. I suggest you try Tacos Wey in Affton Missouri near 9 Mile Food Truck Village.

    2 tacos one bacon and egg and the other was birria and egg.

    Wanted breakfast and heard they started breakfast Friday through Sunday. We tried the chorizo breakfast burrito and the 2 tacos with one bacon and the other birria. It's not a large dining area but set up nicely. The person at the counter was very nice. Brought our food to us and the food was delicious and super filling

    Fish taco
    Katherine B.

    Get your taco fix here! They always have a nice agua fresca and they even started opening for breakfast so I can get a cafecito too. Tacos are piled high and folks were rolling in every few minutes to pick up to go orders all through dinner. We choose to dine in. Another thing, you might not realize it, but both people in our party remarked on how delicious the refried beans are and it's typically not a thing I pay attention to at Mexican restaurants. They had a new star fruit strawberry agua fresca that we loved. And while you're there, you can get your locally made paleta (Popsicle) fix too. It was nice that they had a taco Tuesday special too

    We showed up about 10 minutes from closing time and I felt bad because I know what it feels like to work in the service industry and have people roll up right before closing, but they welcomed me in and the service was amazing. It is difficult to find authentic little taco shops in St. Louis that are up to my liking, but Tacos Wey was awesome. We ordered tacos al pastor, esquite, watermelon aqua fresco and chicharonnes. We will definitely be going back!

    Gringo taco
    Brent P.

    What a cool little taco spot in Affton! We've driven past this place many times, on the corner of Weber, but we finally went in for lunch on a Saturday right when they opened. We were greeted by a friendly employee who explained to us the menu and all of what is popular. We ordered Street Wey tacos (El pastor), Quesabirria tacos, Gringo way tacos (grilled chicken), chips and guac and bottle water. All cost $33 total, a pretty good deal. Inside seating has plenty of spots if you're not taking it to go. The inside decor is themed with Hispanic music playing. The one thing we loved about this place was how clean it was. There was not a spot of dirt anywhere. Their attention to detail was awesome. Everything is made fresh, but it look less than 10 minutes for us to get our food. The food is super fresh, and very good. The tacos are very flavorful. My favorite was probably the Gringo way taco (grilled chicken) that was piled high with tons of toppings. The chips and guac was super fresh, and we also had some of the mild sauce. We will be back for sure. The service, the space was clean, and the food was very tasty. What a little cool spot in South County, check it out if you can.

    If you haven't heard of this place definitely look it up and make a trip! The Birria tacos are amazing!! The cheese dip is heaven and I love that chips are not salty! It's a small dining area with a few outside seats! The employees are very nice and helpful! Will definitely go back again soon!!

    Front entrance
    Sadie K.

    I've been meaning to try this place for so long, because I heard good things about the birria. And they were right! It was amazing! I stopped in right before they closed and I was lucky they still had it because the menu says "limited availability" or something along the lines of "while supplies last". The consommé is so savory and the tacos are still slightly crispy. I have been to some other places where they just get so soggy and fall apart (but still taste good)... it's a mess to eat. These held their shape and stayed put together. Definitely recommend! I will be going back for more (while they still are fairly messy as birria is in general). The place is pretty small though. There are some tables inside. But definitely not for big groups.

    Birria tacos and watermelon Fresca
    Angela W.

    I have frequented this restaurant ever since they opened. The whole family loves this place, but I like to sneak off and do lunch here by myself. The Birria tacos hit the spot every time! My kids love the Dorito nachos. They have fresh juice/Frescas and bottled beverages. It's a very small establishment, like 7 tables. You order at the counter and they call out your number. Every employee has been very friendly and helpful.

The only reason I'm giving it 3 stars is because the ordering process was a little confusing. When we arrived, we were told we could order drinks but needed to wait about 10 minutes before ordering food so the kitchen could catch up. After that, it wasn't really clear when we were supposed to go back up and order, and it seemed like a few other people were confused too. The staff was very nice, but it felt like they could have used a couple more people working that day. They even brought us a complimentary vegetarian taco, which was a nice touch! Once we ordered, our food came out within about 15 minutes.The tacos were good, flavorful, and the salsa was great. I think our experience may have just come down to staffing that day. I'd definitely give them another try!

The outside is very unassuming; I'd driven by this place sooooo many times and never even noticed that it was a diner! It looks just like many old-timey STL buildings which just adds to the charm. Once you walk in, it's like teleporting to the past. It isn't fancy, but it is packed (and rightfully so). It was just myself when I went, so I was able to be immediately sat at the bar which was a nice surprise considering it was packed on a holiday (Labor Day) morning. The server was very nice and attended to whatever I needed efficiently despite juggling a lotta different folks. For the food & drinks, I started off with a nice cold brew. I didn't love the taste, as it was almost tea-esque, but to be fair I don't drink a lot of cold brew so maybe that's just how it is. I decided to get some Sopapillas as an appetizer as I'd heard they were good and they definitely did not disappoint. They arrived very quickly, were hot out of the fryer, and tasted amazing! They were pillowy soft and just sweet enough while not being overbearing. I added a little honey on top and it was like I was in heaven. There were 5 in the order and I had to stop myself after quickly devouring 3 within 2 minutes. That's how good they were. Onto my entree, I went with the Breakfast Burrito with homemade sausage. I am a big breakfast burrito guy, and a pretty tough critic, but I've gotta say that this was one of the best breakfast burritos I've had in recent years for sure. There was just enough cheese to add flavor and make it the perfect texture without being too much. The sausage had an incredible flavor that complemented the egg, home fries, and chiles perfectly. After devouring half of the burrito in under 90 seconds, I once again had to restrain myself and opted to take my leftover home before I made some really good but bad decisions (aka eating wayyyy too much). Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here. The vibes & food were immaculate despite the location and decor feeling very unassuming. I'd be excited to come back and try some of their other popular dishes, and I'll be sure to bring along some friends to share the experience next time!

My friend and I stopped here for a last minute drinks and dinner. We each had the house special, I think it was called the Cadillac margarita with salted rim, iced not frozen, and we got the jumbo. OMG I couldn't even finish the jumbo. It was very strong and big, had to take it home to try and finish it. A wait staff dropped off chips and salsa and the chips were just not that good. I asked my friend what she thought and she said the same thing I did. The salsa did help but if I opened my own Mexican place I would serve the best chips I could find. I know they're free but many places offer some kind of free snack (Helen's has popcorn, some places still offer salted peanuts...) and I think it should make one think the chips are good the food will be better. As I was drinking I wanted some food and we got two chicken burritos, they were large and very good!! They were 2 for $14 if that gives an idea on cost. While I live just a few minutes from here, I haven't seen enough in 2 visits to say I'll keep coming here for Mexican, there are many other places in South St Louis to try. Oh and I swear the bar "stools" are big enough for two people. I probably look comical on one as my friend and I may have been able to fit into one stool.
