Great Takos and people. Love this place and quick service. First time in Madrid. Had an awesome time.

busy when we went the line was to the door but moved quickly. Order at the counter and then you can sit after. inside they work really fast and we got our food only after a few minutes. Tacos were about average/small in size and meat amount. salsas on the table were ok too. Overall a quick bite that didn't disappoint read more

Takos al Pastor - Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Madrid, M

This is coming from a person who's lived in Texas most of her life: the tacos were so good!! The salsa paired so nicely with it too and it's not crazy spicy. We also ordered the quesadilla and it was good but if I could go back in time I would get more tacos for sure. The service was so quick. It took less than five minutes to get our food. The ambiance is fun and lively, very colorful and spacious. We were very fortunate to not wait in a line when we came. I would've gone to eat a second time there if I wasn't so full. Sooo good! read more

Takos al Pastor - Al pastor, beef - Mexican Near Me - Madrid, M

My family and I came here to have dinner and what I really hated was how the line to order food at the counter went all the way outside. Also, there was one staff at the front counter who I'd say was not really that friendly as when me and my family were placing our order and after I said what I wanted to order to the cashier, I gave him just a simple friendly reminder like I normally like to do when I go to restaurants in general by just simply telling him that I don't want anything else on my taco besides the meat and tortillas but see as I was trying to be kind and simple when I was trying to remind him that I didn't want anything else on my taco but the meat and tortillas, he told me, "Would you like anything else?" in a tone of voice that sounded like he was urging me to hurry up or he was irritated or something. Also, since they sell Jarritos sodas, I wanted the orange flavored one, but they only had the grapefruit one which I was pretty disappointed at since it looked like that was the only Jarritos soda available, although the grapefruit flavored soda still tasted good. Also, when our food came, they put all the tacos that my mom, brother, and me ordered into a single plate instead of separating them. From what I remember, my mom ordered two particular tacos, my brother ordered 8 regular beef tacos, and I ordered only 5 regular tacos and I'm not sure why they had to serve them all together in a single plate instead of separating them. We did however request plates where we could separate the different tacos from each other. Lastly, I was expecting the taste of my tacos to be salty-like, but all of a sudden, they had a bit of a sweet taste to it, which I wasn't really expecting. To be honest, I'd say my experience eating at this restaurant was not really that good. The only things that I seemed to have liked out of my experience eating here which wasn't much were the food being served to us fast and being able to request plates to separate my tacos from my mom and brother's tacos. read more

Came here for lunch around 2pm and had some great tacos and quesadillas! Although the line was long, it moved very, very quickly. We were also served very quickly and were seated at a table in the well-decorated interior. Prices are extremely reasonable (you can get tacos plus drinks for under 10 euro). The gringa quesadilla was the star of the show for me! Super filling and they put lots of meat inside. My friends got the mango margaritas for 5 euro and loved them. Overall: great spot for yummy tacos, quesadillas, and drinks all while being affordable and in the middle of Sol read more

Takos al Pastor - Tacos for 2. - Mexican Near Me - Madrid, M

Absolutely delicious tacos in such a fun environment! The line is long, but it moves at a decent pace. Their menu is very simple and you order at the counter before going to sit down at a table of your choice. They'll yell your name and bring your food to you when its ready. I got the pastor and suadero tacos as a mid afternoon snack. They were both so delicious! I loved how the tortilla was thin and soft, and the meat on both was so well seasoned. Both sauces were also delicious to add as well. Highly recommend! read more

Step into a delicious Mexican fiesta and enjoy incredible tacos right outside the touristy Gran Via area. There might be a long line, but it will move, and it is absolutely worth it. People are eating, and leaving, ordering, and leaving, it's a good flow of activity, a well oiled machine. Lots of seating spots. Order your meal, and wait for your name to be called out REAL LOUD, by an angel holding your glorious tacos. The price point is good, the vibes are REAL good. Gracias por todo! read more

So affordable, delicious quick to be served, but a long line to get in. 2nd time in a few days and tried both beef tacos this time. I prefer the Suendra- the higher quality steak called arrechhia? Has a smoky flavor and a small kick. The other is more classic Rosarito beach tacos, but shredded beef, tacos with cilantro and onions. Had to get one al pastor too cause so delicious. My kids love the horchata here, I like a Pacifico with my tacos. They also have water-pick up drinks at counter just after you ordered. The space can be lively when full- but somehow never out of tables! Worth the wait. My tip is if you order anything with cheese say "mas Meno" it is always too much cheese. And if you think you are not hungry and getting just 2 tacos, make it 4! Or 5! If you need to go back and order some more tacos it's a 10 euro min charge aka 5 al pastor- if u don't have cash. read more

Amazing cheap tacos in madrid! Definitely recommend the el pastor taco. So flavorful and so delicious. Food comes out super quick, by the time we sat the food was basically out.

Takos al Pastor - Carne, pastor, arranchera, cochinita tacos - Mexican Near Me - Madrid, M

I must not tell lies. I think I had the best tacos of my life here in one of Madrid's most touristy neighborhoods -- and I don't care if admitting that means I automatically relinquish my "born and raised in California" credentials. Yes, the line will be long. Yes, you will be tempted to abandon your plans and figure out a plan B for lunch or dinner. And a resounding yes -- every bite of those €1-1.50 tacos will be worth the 30 minute or so wait. I squandered most of my time in line nervously eyeing the seating in the back. It was a little after 5 PM but already so crowded, so I didn't know if we would find anywhere to sit. Lo and behold, we snagged a table, and after what felt like five minutes or so, our heaping platter of tacos had arrived. Fair warning: if you don't speak Spanish, definitely translate the menu beforehand as there isn't an English version available. My Spanish is shabby (as in, I resorted to "oui" instead of "si" after my taxi driver asked me a question) so I prepared by diligently copy-and-pasting "tinga de pollo" (chicken with chipotle and onion) into an iPhone note to refer to at the register. They don't skimp on the meat here, even though the tacos are a bargain. The tacos were teeming with flavorful chicken. You can't go wrong with the complimentary sauces on the table -- they're tasty and don't overwhelm. Throw back a guava Jarritos with your taco feast and be sure to report back once you've had the best tacos of your life here too. read more

Had to drop into Takos al Pastor after seeing all the rave reviews. Their tacos are a steal (1,20€ to 1,50€). Small line on a Wednesday (5:00pm) but only took 10 minutes to order. There's plenty of seating in the back. Besides tacos, they also have alambres, quesadilla and tortas. Two bottles of salsa (verde and roja) are brought to your table. - Doble jamaica (3,00€) - hibiscus was refreshing. - 10x Takos - pastor (1,50€), arrachera (1,50€), suadero (1,20€), cochinita pibil (1,20€), tinga de pollo (1,20€) and nopal con queso (1,20€). Generously portioned (twice the amount of meat you normally get) and excellently seasoned. Favourites were the pollo and suadero. Least favourite was the arrachera (skirt steak was slightly overcooked). TAP's a gem. Delicious tacos. read more

Some might argue that the perfect food doesn't exist. I would point them to a steak quesadilla at Takos Al Pastor. It's truly the pinnacle of a quesadilla: savory, cheesy, filling, and flavorful (especially when doused in some of the restaurant's green and red salsas). Pair it with a Jarritos soda or a tall glass of horchata, and it's absolutely out of this world. This is not to undervalue the tacos at Takos Al Pastor. They're small, but pack a lot of flavor into 3ish bites. I'd recommend getting a variety of them to share if you're dining in a group. In terms of service, the line to the register is intimidating but moves fairly quickly. Just be alert after placing your order as servers rush out of the kitchen, yelling out your name with hot plates in hand. The interior is colorful and cheery-- combined with the food, it's hard to be in a bad mood at Takos Al Pastor. A MUST-TRY for anyone in Madrid. read more

My friend and I came back a couple times during our trip to this place because it is just that good!! The tacos and sauces were delicious and a really great price as well.

Only critique: a Mexican restaurant without rice and beans is like a burger joint without"French" fries, just weird!

This is a tasty taco restaurant! There might be a line outside but it goes quickly. We shared three different tacos and a steak quesadilla as well as a tamarind margarita. The food came out so quickly we almost weren't at a table after ordering. It was very affordable only €20. read more

If you're looking for AMAZING tacos, this is your place. These tacos rival the best I've had in Mexico/US. You have to try the al pastor and go ahead and get a pitcher of margaritas when you order... there is usually quite a wait. This place was flooded with young tourists and university students, but that's because this is the perfect spot for pre-club sustenance. read more

Takos Al Pastor has been a favorite of mine in Madrid since 2018. Back then, the location was tiny but the new and improved location is as good and much more spacious. While in Madrid, I ate here 3 separate times. The wait, which has always been extremely long, is more than worth it. Advice is to get there at 12:45 PM if you're having lunch as they open at 1 and the line is already forming by then. Located right off of Gran Via, the restaurant has excellent quality tacos, alambres, and quesadillas along with horchata, margaritas, and other drinks as well. We ordered the vegetable alambres, which is similar to an American-style fajitas plate in that the food is served with tortillas so that you can make your own tacos. The alambre had cheese, mushrooms, onions, peppers, and slices of avocado which were perfect to make tacos with. The cheese is always super melty and is ideal for this meal. The tacos are, of course, the highlight of the meal, and the we ordered almost every taco they have on the menu. The al pastor is especially good, as is the arrachera, nopal (cactus) with cheese, and the chorizo with potato. The salsas that come with your meal in little bottles are also both wonderful. I can't wait for the next visit to Madrid so that I can have these tacos again. read more

I was infatuated, and still am, with Dune Part 2 when I was in Madrid, so pardon my numerous references to the film. It is quite possibly the cinematic spectacle of the decade! After a long day of walking with the ladies I'd met in Madrid, they told me I had to try some tacos, so they took me to Takos al Pastor. I wasn't expecting much from tacos that were 1.5 to 2 euro each. I was wrong. This might just be the best eat for your euro. The tacos themselves were good, not life changing, but that spicy salsa was sent straight from paradise. Up until this point of my trip, I hadn't had any sort of spice that had satisfied my desire. This sauce gave me the spice I needed. I just wanted to drink it like it was the water of life! In a land devoid of hot spice, Takos al Pastor was what I needed! Overall, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. It's cheap and affordable, but they also have great margaritas. I, Dan Hanis, love myself a good margarita! MOST IMPORTANTLY, Takos al Pastor has a delicious hot salsa. God Bless America and God Bless Food! Your food reviewing Lisan Al Gaib, Dan Hanis read more

Holy cow what a hidden (not so hidden?) gem! Outstanding food in a great, fun atmosphere. Can here with my wife and kids, ages 18 and 13. When you arrive you wait on line and order. You then get a ticket and find our seat. 5-10 min later they come out calling your name and you get your food on a platter to share . For our meal we had 3 Pastor (pork) tacos, 3 Arrachera (beef) tacos, three chicken tacos and one chorizo with potatoes. We also had 3 cheese quesadillas. Kids had Spanish soda and adults a Corona beer. It was all so good, but for me the most tasty was the beef tacos. They give you two sauces with the green sauce being slightly more spicy. When we came in the line was 20 deep, and that was at 7:30pm on a Tuesday. When we left it was 100 deep and well out the door. Line more fairly quickly as we waited about 30 min. Go! Here! Now! read more

My boyfriend has a way of finding good tacos everywhere we go so he led us here. We ended up coming here twice during our 3 days in Madrid! It's in a very convenient location. There is always a line, but def worth the wait. Tacos are 1-1.50 euro and you can't beat the value and taste of it all. We got al pastor, chicken, the steak, but our fave was the chicken. Steak was a bit dry, but still great flavor. We also got a pollo quesadilla which was very cheesy and tasty. Tried both the hibiscus and horchata and both were delicious! Service is quick and friendly. They try to get people in and out as quick as they can. We ordered and I think within 10 minutes all our food came. 10 euro minimum for credit card use, and there is an extra small charge for takeout. We noticed everyone ate there anyway. Order everything you want all at once, because if you order a little, then decide you want more later, you gotta wait back in line. If you're looking for a good Mexican spot or a spot specifically for tacos, this is it! read more

I've been in Europe for sometime on vacation, I was missing having some good tacos when I came to Madrid. I looked up if tacos were a thing in Madrid and they were! This was the number one recommendation that came up on yelp and I am so glad I came. These tacos are so good that the line was down the block. We waited for about thirty minutes but it was worth it! Price is decent and quality is amazing! I would advise you try different flavor meats and definitely get yourself more than you think you'll need to avoid making line again. NO other taco spot in Madrid compared to this one, trust me I tried them too. read more

You'll probably be turned off by the long line but don't be, it moves quick and these tacos are worth it. Don't come too late in the day or they may be out of certain tacos. Everything we had was delicious, the tacos are small but PACKED with meat, and the prices truly cannot be beat. in the US the meal we had would have cost at least triple what we payed and the food would not have been half as good. Again, HIGHLY recommend this spot! read more

Right across from Hotel Liabeny, this place is good but not worth it if you need to wait more than 20 min for it Pros: - Preferred the arrachera over the pastor and the queso tacos were pretty good too - The staff is extremely efficient in churning out orders Cons: - Extremely long lines. It's good but don't think it's worth the 30 min wait read more

Did I wait in line for over two hours? Yes. Was it worth it? Depending! This taco place is fantastic! If you live in Spain, or are in an area with limited Mexican/Hispanic food, this is the spot for you! I have tacos almost on par to this back home, that I could wait 15 minutes for so I probably would not wait in line again. But for the experience, it was worth it this time! They were delicious. Flavor is point, service is quick once you're seated. I loved the Al Pastor and the potato/chorizo/queso tacos. Horchata was a nice find as well! And of course, you can't beat 1 euro! read more

We decided to give this place a try because of the amazing Google and Yelp reviews. As someone that lives in Southern California, I was a little skeptical of having tacos while on vacation in Madrid, but man was I proven wrong. These tacos were definitely as good if not better than some of the tacos I've had in Southern California. We showed up around 10pm and the line was still HUGE, but it was definitely worth the wait. They had a mariachi band playing in the restaurant while we waited which was pretty cool to see. The tacos were also a STEAL, between 1-2 euros per taco. We basically tried one of each one, the beef was by far our favorite. If you are in Madrid, this place is a must! It's open late, cheap, and serves amazing tacos, just be prepared to wait in line. read more

Excellent. I'm from USA but that was the best margarita I've ever had. Tacos were great.

I had a couple friends recommend this place to me since I was visiting Madrid, but I kept thinking why would I get tacos in Spain? But don't have any doubts- this place is a MUST while in Madrid. I've never been to Mexico, but I can confidently these are some of the best tacos I've ever had. Especially for the price of 1 euro each. I went here on a couple occasions (once around 10pm and another time around 3pm), and the wait was about 45 minutes each time. I got one of almost all the types of tacos. It was a little hard keeping track of which is which, but I would really recommend getting the pastor taco- that was my favorite. All of them were super delicious. The meat was super well cooked and had such good marination of sauces. Also make sure to get a margarita- it wasn't super alcoholic, but a frozen drink paired nice with the tacos. They had other teas and drinks like horchata and agua de jamaica that I wasn't able to try, but wish i did! read more
