I particularly enjoy the birria and chorizo tacos, but I haven't had anything I didn't enjoy here. Is it the absolute best taco place in Detroit?

Our meals…read morewere prepared with fresh ingredients and obvious care- all delicious if not a little under seasoned (a little salt notched up the pozole and tacos). A spicy salsa option would be nice for the asada tacos- but yum quality still and the nopales cooked perfectly! pozole could have used a little cilantro and raw diced onion garnish but we enjoyed it all and will come back for the dinner menu. The dressed tostadas for the pozole hit the spot! Cafe de olla was fragrant and boldly seasoned with cinnamon. Tasted decadent, almost sweet and earthy yummy.

A lot of places lose their mojo after the first year, food slips, menu goes stale. Not here. They keep adding new items and keeping the good ones around. This time I got the Mole Enchiladas and they were bombdotcom. Only thing is I wasn't paying attention and they're just cheese inside. I was expecting chicken. If they made chicken an option this would easily be a top 3 order for me. The unique take on traditional tacos is still one of the strongest things on the menu. The backyard asada and the Otro Nivel are still worth ordering a year later. And the specialty aguas frescas always hit the spot, there's a new concoction every time I show up. Service is attentive every time, even when they're slammed.

You order at the food truck, and they have an indoor seating area with tables if you want to eat on-site. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The food here is amazing. The birria tacos were packed with flavor, and at $2.50 each, they're an unbeatable deal. But the real star for me was the burrito--this thing had to weigh at least a pound! It wasn't just massive; it was packed with huge flavor. I went with al pastor for my protein, and it was absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned and cooked. The salsas are also delicious which is always a plus. I hope more people discover this gem because the food truly speaks for itself. If you haven't tried Taqueria El Rincon Tapatio yet, do yourself a favor and get there ASAP. Highly recommend! Check out my Instagram for more @hangry_detroiter

It's a very casual dining. We ordered the elote, 3 chicken tacos and Mexican cheese fries with added beans. The chicken tacos weren't too bad.

I prefer a bit of cotija cheese and some seasoning only. Corn if it's sweet and good, doesn't need a lot of stuff on it. At least we tried it out.

Chunks of chorizo and bacon, Jalapeno's, tomato, cilantro and onion floating around. Amazing. Horrible part is they charge an extra $1.25 for them. Sigh. I knew when I saw the upcharge they had to be good, and they were. The building doesn't look like much from the outside, but it is Fantastic once you enter. High ceilings, industrial brick, old time photos, spider plants in large windows, wooden tables made from tree planks and large heavy sturdy wooden chairs. Shiny and varnished offer all the decorations you need. Large art pieces decorate the walls, with pendant lighting Now for The food. Presented well. Smelled great. Hand made tastiness!! Charro beans are amazing, the rice was good. The BIRRIA Is too tasty, savory and tender in a rich broth decorated with onions The pastor was charred beautifully with little charred onion bits of goodness. The tortillas are either handmade or super high quality, both the flour and corn were amazing. I ordered the Camino Real Special and it was decorated with Pico De Gallo, Guac, Radish, Lime and a charred Jalapeño. Only complaints are, Chip basket was small and only came with 1 salsa.

So do not dine in. Lets talk about the food. Chicken and tacos are great. Tacos are fully loaded for $3. Good size too, not the little ones from taco trucks. I know they smoke their chicken outside because you can see the smoke. Chicken is flavorful and marinated well. If white meat is too dry for you then you can dip it in the salsa. Sides like rice and beans are great too. Better than a lot of restaurants out there. Next time I just get it to go and eat at the park. It is too dirty to sit there with flies and mold.

As I drove up to Pollos Los Gallos I saw a column of smoking rising from the grills on the side of…read morethe building. I was a bit confused since this was my first time visiting and the building was completely bereft of any signage. But as the other reviews say, just follow your nose! I walked into to the grill area, where the cook, who was busy slathering chicken on the grill with a red sauce, directed me inside through the nondescript door on the front of the building. Ordering is really quick here. They take pre-packaged food out of a hot box, bag it up, and hand it to you. It was a little disappointing since I was expecting to get chicken fresh off the grill. Maybe during busier hours they continuously refill as customers file through? Unfortunately, I figured the earlier I went the fresher the chicken would be, but I guess I was wrong. The place was completely empty after all and I didn't see any other customer the entire time I was there. Whole Chicken Meal ($17) - Pollos Los Gallos isn't really a place you eat in so I got the bag to bring home with the delicious smell of smoked chicken and fresh corn tortillas filling the car as I drove. My first impression as I opened the box and looked at the chicken - woah, super nice char and coloring on each piece. The chicken was chopped up into smaller pieces, making things easier to eat but also increasing the number of small bones to pick through. As expected, that smoky char flavor mixed with the spice glaze on the exterior was phenomenal, but the interior even on the dark meat was dry. Again, I'm wondering if this was because it had been sitting in the hot box for a while. The meal comes with a choice of beans or rice. I got both for $1 extra. The beans were tender pinto charro beans with nice flavor and appropriately seasoned. The Mexican rice was as good as anywhere else in the area, light and fluffy and was only an extra dollar. Also included are some pickled jalapenos and red onions in a small cup. These added a good acidity from vinegar and lime juice and some spiciness from the jalapenos. Two small containers of decently spicy salsa are served on the side. I recommend moistening the chicken up by dousing it in the salsa. Finally, ten fresh hand made corn tortillas complete the meal. Put a bit of everything inside to make a delicious taco! Pollos Los Gallos is cash only, but the food is outstanding value for only $17. I'll have to revisit during the dinner rush and see if I can get fresher chicken next time.
