Grabbed a couple beef tacos while running errands nearby and they really hit the spot. The…read moretortillas were clearly fresh and the beef had this great char on the outside. They didn't go overboard on the toppings, which let the meat shine. The salsa bar had a ton of options which I always love. The guy at the counter was super helpful and friendly. Quick service too, even though they had a line. Will be adding this place to my regular taco rotation.

It looks like a fishbowl lol. When Im wanting Mexican food and margs this is exactly what I mean. This is exactly the food you want from your neighborhood Mexican restaurant. Service was very slow. I'm talking we waited 30 minutes to even get greeted but even though the service wasn't great we still came back the next night. We came on a Saturday night so it was pretty busy. We got take out the next night lol.

We rolled into Dos Amigos Mexican Grill early... you know, prime AARP dining hours--because nothing…read moresays "living your best life" like maximizing flavor intake before the sun even thinks about setting. As luck would have it, we walked in alongside the GOAT himself, Coach Murphy. I told him to go beat Texas and he hit me with a "heck yea!" and a fist bump. Honestly, that alone was worth the trip--everything after that was just bonus innings. We made our way to the booth, and I stayed loyal to my usual: #31. Because let's be honest, if you've been to one Mexican restaurant, you know the rule--when in doubt, trust the number. The hot and spicy burrito did not disappoint, and this time I made a veteran move and got the sour cream on the side. I like control... I don't need all that dairy committing to one zip code on my plate. I prefer to distribute it like a seasoned strategist. Now, Dos Amigos has stepped into the future. They've got a "cheese dip sally" delivering food. Not sure who named it, programmed it, or gave it that much personality, but she rolls up loud and proud with your order like she's announcing a main event. Friendly? Yes. Subtle? Not even a little. Just hoping nobody tries to load her into their trunk on the way out--she's part of the team now. We kept things simple tonight--cheese dip to start (because that's basically mandatory), water to balance out our life choices, my trusty #31, and my better half went with the fajita steak quesadilla, which looked like it could solve most of the world's problems if given enough time. Truth is, we come here a lot, and they've never missed. At this point, you'd think we'd be fluent in Spanish--but I'm still over here confidently ordering "numero treinta y uno" like it's my one and only line in the script. Great food, friendly staff, quiet atmosphere... and now a robotic sidekick. What more could you ask for?

Well now, when one of your boys asks you to meet for breakfast, you just go ahead and make that…read morenoble fatherly sacrifice, right? So that's exactly what I did--hauled myself over to Pastor's Kitchen to start the day off right (or at least try to). We sat down for a quick bite before heading out to conquer the world--or at least our to-do lists. I went with the ol' faithful: scrambled eggs and bacon. My son decided to get fancy with the breakfast tacos. Now, I've got to say, my bacon came out a little more crispy than Christian, bless its heart. The scrambled eggs were... well, let's just say I've had the same thing at about a dozen other spots in town. Nothing to write home about, but it filled the tank. Normally, Pastor's hits the mark--they're known for good grub and even better vibes. The place was spotless, the staff was friendly as always, and the Christian music humming in the background gave it that easy-going, Sunday-morning feel even on a weekday. So while today's breakfast wasn't exactly divine intervention, the company made up for it. After all, breakfast with your boy is always time well spent--even if the bacon's a little too close to burnt offering status.

Taco Mama is a QSR in downtown Tuscaloosa close to the university. You order at the counter and the…read morefood is brought to your table. Their menu is very simple consisting of bowls, tacos, burritos and quesadillas. I opted for a bowl with shredded chicken. They have a lengthy list of toppings that you can add. They also offer free chips and salsa. The food came really fast and the portion was large. The food quality didn't seem very fresh and it wasn't anything special. For $20, which felt like a lot, I was hoping for better. Overall, for a quick and filling meal, it's a decent option!

After being seated, we indulged in Nachos, Burritos and Quesadillas. My daughter in law said that her Watermelon Margarita was good. The restaurant was clean and the customer service was good. It took a while for my granddaughter to get her quesadillas, but she did enjoy them very much. Overall, this is a nice place to visit. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well as street parking. This is also a nice area to walk around with other dining experiences. I recommend this restaurant.

You could miss this place it's so small but it's packed with amazing flavors and hand made everything. The first time I had the tacos with beans and rice and the wife ordered the chimichanga. There is a small area to add your own salsa, cream, cheese, and whatever else you want. The chimichanga has big flavors with the seasoning, peppers, and cheese. It's so good! My tacos were fresh and hand made. Sooo gooood!! We couldn't wait to come back. Two days later. I pick up dinner to go. The wife had to get the chimichanga again and I went for the Cubano sandwich. I have never had a sandwich like it before. Spicy chicken, grilled sliced ham, grilled hotdog, jalapeño, onion, avocado, tomato, and lettuce. Spectacular. Loved it. I'm so full I haven't tasted the tamale yet but apparently they sell out pretty quick! Eat here! Forget the watered down usual Mexican restaurant. This place is a diamond in the rough!
