I don't like Tex-Mex, hard shell tacos, or that silver tray restaurants love to display tacos on. This place isn't fancy, but it is a 10/10.

I was in McKinney on business and a quick Yelp search found Big Tacos. I love tacos, who doesn't,…read moreso this was an easy choice. I ordered the Fiesta Bowl. Not a taco, but all the inside goodness. I chose carnitas as the meat. I think I made a good choice. The bowl is huge. And not all lettuce n tomatoes. Lots of meat, good refried beans, corn, shredded cheese, tortilla strips, pico and yes, lettuce n tomato's. I don't often not clean the plate, but I did this day. Again a lot of food. Pricing - a bit pricy - w/ tip, $20. But, they do deliver to the table so there's that. Good food but pricy.

I visited Mexican Cactus Taco Bar expecting your typical strip mall taco joint with decent tacos…read moreand some TVs to watch a World Cup match, but WOW did I underestimate what I was in for. I knew from the second we walked in, based on the list of made-in-house horchatas and agua frescas, that we were going to be in for a good meal. The menu was refreshingly unique compared to your basic street taco style setup or the usual Tex-Mex mashup of inauthentic tacos topped with shredded cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes. Our group of 3 adults, plus my 7 year old niece, shared a bowl of guacamole, which was phenomenal and came mixed with sunflower seeds and topped with crumbled cotija, alongside house-made corn tortilla chips. We also split an elote cup, which was great. My wife got a classic horchata, which was deliciously sweet (but not overly so) with a nice slight punch of cinnamon. I went with water but will definitely try an agua fresca next time. I ordered two tacos, both on house-made flour tortillas (I like corn tortillas but prefer flour when made fresh). The Pollo Azteca, with marinated grilled chicken tenderloin, mango pico, and a drizzle of crema, was phenomenal, and had more flavor than most chicken tacos I've had before. The star of my meal, however, was the Al Pastor, with adobo marinated pork tenderloin, diced pineapple, onions, and cilantro, with a slice of lime to squeeze on top. This was hands down one of the best tacos I've ever had in my life. I was floored. I also tried my wife's Carne Asada tacos, which came topped with cilantro and onions, and a slice of lime, on their house made corn tortillas. The steak was incredibly flavorful, and the corn tortillas were tender without being chewy. We shared a side of rice and beans, which was good, but not the star of the show. The rice was your typical Mexican yellow rice, and the beans were more of a soupy whole-beans style, which reminded me of my Colombian mother-in-law's recipe. The staff makes four homemade salsas, ranging from mild to pretty spicy, and I loved all of them with the exception of the mild. My niece got the kids' cheese quesadilla, which was a simple melted Oaxaca cheese between a flour tortilla, served with rice, beans, and a little side of crema. The last thing I will rave about is the service. The staff was incredibly nice from the minute we walked in, pleasant to talk to when delivering our order and asking how everything was tasting, to the moment we bussed our tables and headed for the door. I cannot wait to come back again, and I hope they stay very busy until I'm able to do so, because I want this place to be around for a very long time!

Living in Texas means there are a TON of options for tacos within a few miles of anywhere you go…read more Consistently, some of the best ones are the ones hidden in gas stations, like this gem. Found it on Yelp (thanks y'all) and with the high ratings, I knew I was in for a treat. The "restaurant" is really just a window in the back corner inside the convenience store, with a small table and a few stools for anyone "eating in". Nothing quite matches the experience of sitting on a wobbly stool watching people buy cigarettes and lotto tickets while eating bomb tacos, honestly. I got myself 4 tacos, and I could've eaten more as they were SO good. I had 2 steak tacos, one chicken with jalapeño, and one that was chorizo and beef. The steak ones were my favorite. Prices are average, and service was friendly and quick. Dont expect luxury accomodations, but expect amazing tacos. Next time you stop to get gas, perhaps do it here, so you have an excuse to grab some of this food.

Del Sur is delicious, with everything made to order. The tortillas are excellent, their homemade salsa are spicy in the best of ways, and every taco I've tried, and I've tried MANY, are all top notch! Don't worry about ambiance, it's a taqueria. The place is clean, the prices are on point, and the food is FABULOUS. The only drawback, and it's a very minor one, is that they don't sell drinks, you have to purchase your beverages separately. It's a minor inconvenience, but you're in a gas station/convenience store, so there's like a gaggle of different drink options for you. There no need for me to list off specific tacos, they're literally all great!

My first time visiting this location and the experience went very well…read more Service was pleasant and the staff were friendly. It was clean and quiet for my quick lunch. It wasn't crowded and I appreciated this. I was off to a good start. My food was how I requested it. I like the slow roasted angus brisket taco. It has the perfect flavor and ingredients. However, I substitute the brisket for their rotisserie chicken. My spin on this taco is delicious. The chicken is cooked with love and well seasoned. Plus the avocado, corn pico, queso blanco, cilantro and cheese on an encrusted flour tortilla adds the perfect balance. This taco is amazing and I love the texture of the cheese tortilla. I really enjoyed each bite and the sauce was spicy and hot like I like it. Velvet Taco never gets old. I left happy and satisfied.

The restaurant was clean, with creative wall murals and paintings. Staff was kind and communicative. We ordered the elote, steak bowl, rotisserie chicken bowl, and birria and salmon tacos. All the food is spicy, so beware, even the salmon tacos. The elote needed more mayo and cheese. The guacamole had a strong citrus taste, and the rotisserie bowl was salty. Would recommend the tacos over the bowls!

When I got home and opened my bag, the paper bag holding the tacos tore because it was completely soaked in oil. Every taco was sitting in a pool of oil and was inedible. The meat in each taco looked questionable and unappetizing. The rice was extremely dry and bland, and the beans were just as disappointing. I've ordered this exact meal from other Torchy's Tacos locations without any issues, which makes this even more frustrating. This experience did not meet basic standards of food quality or service. I will not be returning.

I was not impressed with it. Maybe the peanuts were too much. However, it was fun to try. I also think they didn't put much sauce on it. I will start saying extra sauce. I didn't taste the sriracha at all. The meat could have been a bit more tender. The overall flavor and components were just ok. The taco complexity of ingredients sounded better than it tasted. 3 STARS SERVICE: was good no complaints. The staff seemed pleasant. 4 STARS AMBIANCE: I love the decor and design of this location. So RED and vibrant. It's cool and fun with a great vibe and energy. The lighting fixtures are so cool. 4 STARS I am only giving them a 4 because the Ambiance and Service. The food is definitely not the star of this visit. Looking forward to the next new taco of the month.
