    PESCADO TACO (MAHI MAHI) MUSHROOM TACO MAR Y TIERRA FRIES
    Jillian B.

    In all our visits to Wynwood, we had somehow never stopped by The Taco Stand until this weekend... and oh. my. gosh. It's probably my new favorite in the area! Very reasonably priced with a good amount of filling in the tacos. We also got the mar y tierra fries which was a super generous portion. One thing to note with the loaded fries is that they use a more american cheese-based queso, so if you're not a fan of nacho cheese, may not be for you. We LOVED the fact that there is a salsa bar with a ton of salsa options to customize your bites further. Not much seating inside and it does get crowded around peak mealtime. Everything was solid, would definitely return.

    Taco Stand had a long line standing all the way outside! Must be good if so many people willing to wait in line. Had to find out for myself. Ordered the carne asada tacos and the Al pastor burrito. These two were a hit ! The carne asada tacos were flavorful wish I had ordered more than two. Very popular spot and eventhough there is normally a long line the staff was fast and food came out fast. Clean and vibrant spot loved the Chapulin Colorado picture.

    With a line out the door all night, you know this spot has a good reputation. Let's Taco bout this iconic location that's small in size but big in flavor! The Taco stand has limited seating inside with an open kitchen where you can see some magic happen. We ordered the carne asada taco served on fresh corn tortillas and made fresh and fast. The Al pastor is aways a must try and I got it in a burrito. Every great taco spot always has to have a salsa bar and the taco stand has all the perfect dressings and salsa's to complement your amazing Mexican dish. Service was fast and ready in no time after your order is placed.

    The name the Taco Stand is fitting cause it really is a tiny place. But they are incredible. You order your food right at the cashier, and the girl was so nice. She even told me about a new aguas frescas drinks they had and recommended we try it. The good comes out rather quickly. Mind you it's made to order so there is a little wait. But you can spend some time at the sauce bar getting all you may need for your experience. This time we got al pastor, chicken and carne asada tacos along with carne asada fries. Those fries were to die for!! It's covered in a cheese sauce with the carne asada an its so amazing!! The horchata was also delicious. They come bottled which is convenient if you're taking it on the go. Definitely one of the top Mexican spots in Wynwood. Check em out!

    As we asked around the area we were hanging out, many recommended this place. And as we should, we followed those suggestions. The line wasn't too bad but when we got there it was a little wait. The place was popping and full of people. Smelled great inside so that was a good sign. We ordered a few different tacos and the asada fries. The fries were solid. Tasty. And for the tacos I want to say my favorite was the nopal or the asada. But either way the food was good. Not your typical Mexican food as I'm used to from Texas but I'd eat here again.

    Our party of four rolled up to the taco stand on a Tuesday night around 8pm and it was a SCENE. the place was packed with hungry young people and the 5 guys behind the counter were flying around and just whipping orders out--the chaos was perfection for a hole in the wall taco joint but with the seating space for a larger group. We ordered the carne asada burrito, Camarillo, pesce, carne, and carnitas tacos. And a huge order to carne asada fries. The portions were massive and the price, affordable considering the chain is an establishment in a youthful, gentrified neighborhood. Definitely come hungry and bring friends if you wanna order a ton of food! They also serve beers and have a cooler full of paletas to round out your meal.

    The food and service was outstanding!!!! We were starving and this was our first stop. Two burritos (California and chicken). 5 tacos of variety. All were insane!!!!! Pastor, chicken, shrimp and Baja. All were so good. Ice cold modelos right in front. So good!

    Tortillas

    If you come late in the night, expect a bit of a wait in line (about 10mins this Thursday after 10pm) but it moves quickly. The enticing smell will keep you company. Lots of salsa options- a creamy chipotle, ciltrano. Salsa verde, a fire roasted ( tatameda) and habanero. The tacos- I got al pastor and pescado (grilled Mahi mahi) Size- slightly larger than food truck sized. Al pastor- good flavor but dry each bite. Pescado- I was surprised I enjoyed this a lot. Fish was tender and flaky, the cabbage added nice cool texture and the salsa chipotle was balanced. Maybe an off night for the Al pastor? It's worth seeing if it's a fluke. 3.5 overall- solid option in Wynwood. P.S. Sit at the counter to watch the tortillas being made or a burrito.

    Second time visiting this place and the foods are absolutely amazing! my friends and i love the Carne Asada fries We were so happy that the line are bearable when we got there cause its usually really packed.

    This is my favorite taco spot and I haven't reviewed it even though I've been coming here for years. It is always a busy spot, especially at night on the weekends but it is worth the wait. Its got limited seating though. When it gets packed, there may be a wait to get your food. There is tons of colorful graffiti on the walls to keep you distracted while waiting for your food. I always order the Mar y Tierra fries/burrito depending on my mood. They cook the shrimp just right and the steak is delicious as well. For their tacos, I do like the carne asada, camaron, and al pastor tacos. If you need a late night taco craving, stop by the Taco Stand.

    Tacos were okay and not impressed at all. I've had great tacos in DC and NYC, so this place in Miami was a bit disappointing. Seasoning on the meat was bland, and steak was very chewy Shrimp taco was good and the al pastor tostada was not good at all

    New aguas frescas
    Adonis S.

    Love this location. Located in the heart of wynwood. This Mexican flair with art is awesome. Everything is made fresh and made to order. We had three tacos. The carne asada and chicken. Highly recommend and they have a salsa bar with a selection of sauces and limes. This time we decided to try the carne asada fries. my favorite by far. It's packed with flavor and cheesy. I loved it. Additionally we tried their new aguas frescas they made in house. Not bad at all.

    Ask the Community - The Taco Stand

    Is there adequate seating for 4 for lunch at 12:30 during the week, and will there be a line?

    They have both indoor and outdoor seating. A good amount of seating.

    Do they still have a sauce station or no more with covid?

    No self-serve sauce station. They pack the sauce in little plastic takeout containers - ask for the sauces you want when you pick up your order (whether you're dining in or getting food to go).

    Do they normally not answer this time of day for pick up?

    They get super busy and because everything is home made, they may just not have the ability.

We went here between January 27 & February 6/2026. La Potranca has five Florida locations, but this cantina does not feel like a chain. Authentic sabor Mexicano with an excellent friendly staff. Family friendly & handi-able accesible from the parking lot. This location gets full by 7pm but there is extended service & seating in the common covered courtyard. Plenty of parking in this strip mall location. Service is excellent, fast, & great choices of tacos & drinks. You can choose from 14 different meats/cuts for your tacos, including birria & al pastor. Bow to the taco! Also gringas, vampiros, & burritos. They have bowls (they're BIG) & brunch. p.s. try the churros with 3 dipping sauces. Drinks are extra special here. The clamato & beer cocktail is very unique. Served in a Tajin rimmed large mug, with lime & a tamarind wrapped straw. Excellante! Also a variety of margaritas served in whimsical glasses & their three house cervazas (beers) on draft. La Potranca pays homage to iconic singer & actor Vincente Fernandez "King of Ranchera". Check out the interesting connection with the staff or online. The staff here is excellent. Very helpful when navigating the menu. Very friendly. True professionals. Special shout out to Mauricio & Ralphael - you hombres make this place truly special. Mucho Gracias. We give La Potranca our highest recommendation.

The hardest part about dining here was deciding what I wanted to order. I could have ordered the entire menu it looked so good! Helpful tip... check out the menu and know what you're going to order before you get in line. Otherwise you're going to be pressured to order at the front of the line. When you walk in, you place your order and pay for it and take a table number. You need to find your own table. Our service was pretty quick, despite how busy the restaurant was. My cold brew was very good and a nice start to the meal. Our guacamole came next and it was nicely styled with pomegranate, cheese and cilantro on top. Yum! The real star of the show for me was this unassuming looking House Club Sandwich that was to die for. Seriously ... it was so good. I ordered mine without the ham, and it was divine! I wish i lived closer. I'm already dreaming of coming back. My son ordered some kind of short rib/beef burrito and it disappeared so quickly I didn't even get to snap a photo. This is a perfect spot to enjoy a great meal, I highly recommend it. One thing I can say is that it's on the pricey side. $113 lunch for 2 added up super fast but it was well worth it. I'll be dreaming of that sandwich til my next visit!

I ordered the mahi mahi tacos, and while they tasted ok, the portion size felt pretty small for the price. Overall, it came across as a bit overpriced for what you get. The service style is more casual and self-directed. You order and pay at the register, get a number, and then find your own seat while they bring the food out to you. Water is self-serve, and once you're done with your meal, you just head out. There's minimal interaction with staff, which might appeal to people who prefer a more low-key, independent dining experience or want a place to sit and work without being interrupted. That said, the service did not feel very friendly or welcoming. And personally, I left feeling a bit underwhelmed.

The music selection is fire though and I was jamming out the whole time while waiting for my food. I complimented them on the music selection and they mentioned the owner is dominican and puerto rican which explained the great music selection. I was helped out by Adrian and his service was helpful in finding what dishes to order. I took my food to go and it was piping hot, definitely made fresh to order which I enjoyed. The nachos were what I was most eager to try as they are all the rage on social media. They lived up to the hype and that nacho cheese is absolute gold. I love that it's served in a pizza box. It just makes it iconic. It travels well and everything was still hot when I got home. The Al Pastor taco was just okay, nothing to write home about but now the steak burrito was really really good. I love that they don't have rice in their burritos and instead replace it with potatoes, which is absolutely delicious. They give two different types of salsas with your order plus limes and the green salsa is unreal. Add it to everything for a flavor boost! All in all this place is fire and if you're craving nachos, this is definitely the place you should come to get your fix!

They had seating inside a tent, music blasting from inside the restaurant speakers, plus another speaker outside, plus a DJ on top of that. The entire place was chaotic and so loud that you could barely even have a conversation. What made it even more disappointing was that this was supposed to be a Cinco de Mayo celebration at a Mexican restaurant, yet the entire time the DJ outside was mainly playing Cuban music. It honestly did not match the atmosphere at all. I eventually even asked the DJ if he could please play some Mexican music because it was Cinco de Mayo. I'm Mexican myself, and overall I did not enjoy the food, the music, or the atmosphere. Our waitress was terrible from the start. Every time we tried to order or ask for something, she acted like we were bothering her. The service overall was just awful. By the time our food finally arrived, we honestly didn't even want it anymore. I ordered the carne asada tacos and they were disappointing. The tortillas tasted undercooked, and the carne asada was tough and cold. Then came the worst part. My friend and I split the bill and noticed that a 20% gratuity had already been included. Somehow, the waitress still added another 20% tip on top of each of our bills when she charged our cards. When we questioned it, she acted confused and like she had no idea what happened. We asked to speak to a manager, and instead of calmly helping resolve the issue, he was loud and confrontational. Another friend in our group kept asking for a copy of her receipt, and the manager actually threatened to call the cops on her while refusing to provide it. At that point, it honestly made us question whether additional charges had also been added to her bill as well. Because everything was so disorganized, it took nearly another hour just to straighten out the bill situation. In the end, the waitress had to give me the extra tip amount back in cash. I understand restaurants get busy on Cinco de Mayo, but this went beyond "busy." It was chaotic, disorganized, unprofessional, and honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. Very disappointed.
