A little strip of international "hole in wall' spots or aka hidden gems. Counter service with few tables. Taco platter was plentiful- beans & Mexi rice could be its own meal. Tacos - al pastor & chorizo were solid, beef was tad too salty. Fast, good lunch without breaking bank. read more

It was my first time coming to this place. The guy who took my order was super nice. The tacos are really good. The ambience is good too. It's clean and tidy.

Taki Tacos - Chicken taco, carne asada taco and shrimp taco. taco de pollo, taco de carne asada y un taco de camaron. - Tacos Near Me - Herndon, Virginia

A great hole-in-the-wall type place. Whenever I eat here (we most often order to go, and they dd a very nice job packing and listing the menu items) ) , I am reminded of eating with one of our friends from Latin America who was a fabulous cook and would put together wonderful dishes for us. I highly recommend their Cachete and Chorizo platters, enchiladas and flautas, my wife loves their el pastor. Everything is wonderfully seasoned, and even the rice and beans are better than most., even the garnishes are a step above. Sorry, no photos, we gobbled it up too quickly! read more

Open for about a month this tiny place is at the end of the strip center. Limited seating with a shared bar type area by the windows and three small tables. While they had various options most were opting at today's lunch for the three taco platter... yes there is a option for separate types or all the same. Tacos are made with a double soft corn tortilla Hubby opted for a single beef taco and a side of fried pinto beans (black beans also available). As you go thru the line you have various topping options that included cheese, pico, onions, cilantro, and three different sauces... he got the red sauce which has a great kick to it... I opted for the carnitas (pork) sopas which were very tasty. A nice rendition with two coming to a order Hate that they are a pepsi shop as I do prefer coke products... read more

For the last six years, my benchmark for really good tacos has been Tacos El Gordo in Vegas. The tacos at Taki don't hit that high a note, but they do make for a decent lunch on the go. And this friendly little taco shop is a nice addition to the Herndon local food scene. On my most recent visit, I ordered three single tacos: the Carne Asada (grilled beef), the Carnitas (roast pork with a nopales relish), and the Lengua (beef tongue). The tacos are made the traditional way that street tacos are made - with two corn tortillas - and at $3 per taco, they're in step with Northern VA prices. The beef was the most flavorful. Nothing particularly special about the flavor - just that it could stand on its own and not be overpowered by the chopped onions and cilantro topping that I had requested. My next favorite was the roast pork. Again, good flavor and great texture with a nice amount of fat. What was disappointing was the nopales relish - there was no sight of it! Or if there was, I was too hungry to notice. The beef tongue was what I had been looking forward to since the friendly lady at the counter handed me my to-go box. But it fell short of expectations. "Bland" is the best way I can describe it. It was as if I were eating an empty taco. In general, I would say the tacos at Taki have left me wanting more - more flavor, more kick, more "POW!". It's the reason for the 3 stars. But they score higher on friendliness, cleanliness, COVID consciousness, and potential. I hope they continue to improve and I look forward to returning. read more

Stopped in for a quick bite and had the chorizo sopes (like a taco-shell boat piled high with refried beans, tasty filling, lettuce, and topped with salty cotija cheese). Definitely hit the spot, and good value for the price. We'll be back read more

I ordered this on DoorDash a few days ago. It was 8:05 pm when I placed the order. DoorDash confirms my order and my driver. The restaurant confirmed the order. I wasn't sure when they closed but DoorDash said it was like 9:30pm, so I figured an hour and a half would be enough time. Nope! 9:15pm rolls around. I call my driver, they say they haven't picked it up yet. Immediately I get an email from DoorDash saying the restaurant cancelled my order! They waited until 9:15pm to cancel it?? That's an hour and ten mins AFTER the order was placed! I couldn't have been more disappointed and will never attempt to order from this place again, unless they reach out and apologize or explain themselves. On the plus side, DoorDash handled this pretty well and gave me some credits to use on a future order. I got tacos from a different restaurant the next day. read more

Taki Tacos - Order Cancelled - Tacos Near Me - Herndon, Virginia

Hands down the best street tacos I've had since I moved away from the border. My wife and I each ordered a taco platter with a mix of carne asada and al pastor. We had the refried beans and Spanish rice with them. The beans were creamy and smooth, with a hint of seasoning. They were exactly the beans I grew up eating in Southern California along the border. The tacos had a generous portion of meat, perfectly cooked. The cilantro and onions were fresh and well chopped. The tortillas were very fresh. The presentation overall was great. The ladies behind the counter were so sweet and very responsive. When they weren't cooking food they were scrubbing non-stop. The restaurant was impeccably clean. If you know and love street tacos- this place is a must! read more

Small taco shop in Herndon. Very simple and affordable with a good selection of meats. The soda selection is kind of limited. They have Mexican Pepsi which I didn't even know was a thing (glass bottles like Mexican Coca-Cola). Recommended for a fast meal. read more

Taki Tacos - Asada platter - Tacos Near Me - Herndon, Virginia

The corn tortillas are dry and flavorless. The rest was decent, they just need to rethink the menu and provide more options.

This Mexican food here is legit. As someone who grew up in California and is part mexican, I can vouch for the quality of this spot's tacos, rice, and beans. Everything is seasoned perfectly and the servings are extremely generous. Finally, some authentic and delicious food in Northern Virginia! read more

Ordered 2 quesidillas, one had a giant moldy patch right in the middle. Cheese was barely even melted.

I had the shrimp tacos here. The shrimp had no flavor and the sauces lacked flavor as well. I asked for spicy but there was no spice to be had. The place is clean and near the Kohls in Herndon. read more

We ordered through Uber Eats and the pickup and delivery was incredibly fast for a Friday night. The tacos were decent but I think it's very expensive for what you receive. They offer sour cream for a side but its $2.99 instead of just having it as a topping option. The red sauce us SPICY! Really good but be prepared lol! read more

Steak taco was good but $3.99 for a little street taco?? You've got to be kidding. Not worth the very over priced food

Husband & I ordered the Chorizo & Camaron taco platters and chicken enchiladas for the first time tonight for dinner (5/19). Pretty good portion sizes & food was good. Tacos came with the red & green sauce. Definitely give it a try if you live in the area. It's a small taco shop & looks fairly clean. Took out 1 star for rude service by a younger looking girl with curly brown hair. Other than that, everything else was good. read more

Solid authentic tacos for ur belly when ur looking for the real thing. We got the lenguas and Chicken tacos and also ordered a chorizo quesadilla bc why not?!

Amazing food and great costumer service. I tried the shrimp tacos for the first time and absolutely loved them. Will be back again.

Walked over from the hotel to check it out. Very clean, friendly service, and a fair price. It's not fancy, but I'd do it again. These people are putting in the work and it shows. read more

Had the al pastor taco platter today for lunch, good portions of rice and beans. The tacos were good but the only problem is they were too heavy on grease. I ate them at 1:30pm and I still feel the food after I burp and I feel it in my throat rn it's 9:45pm. The rice and beans taste wasn't anything special it was eh. They have me 3 little lime wedges so that was a bummer. Pricing kinda sucked 15 for 3 tacos rice beans and a canned soda. In general tacos in nova overpriced IMO. Tacos should be at 1.50-2.00 each. Must places are 2.00-3.50 some are 5 a piece pretty crazy. If you go to Mexico you could've prolly eat 20 plus tacos in Mexico for 15$ read more
