    Carne Asada, Pollo Asado and the Nopal taco
    Paulo I.

    Tacos have always been a hit or miss for me. Usually a miss and The Taco Stand is not the exception. I ordered the Carne Asada, Pollo Asado and the Nopal taco. When I got them, I first noticed how un presentable it was. I like how they pinch the bottom but the down side is that all the filling is then pushed to the top which makes messy when trying to eat. The flavor was decent, I wouldn't say it was delicious but it was alright. My major con is the lack of seasoning, everything felt under season. The Taco Stand is fast casual, so you order in the front and wait for them to call your name. The service was friendly but since it's fast casual you usually don't interact much with the employees. Next time I go I'll try something else from their menu.

    Chicken burrito, in progress

    I came here for dinner the last taco Thursday while in the Little Havana area. I've been to their Wynwood location more than a couple of times in fact that they make their tacos and burritos fresh to order. Yes, that means you're going to wait a little bit! This last visit, I started with the bucket of chips and saturated it with fresh pico de gallo from the salsa bar. They have eight different salsas to choose from. The chips were crispy perfect to snack on. My very large burrito was full of fresh, rotisserie style chicken, very flavorful and a good balance of the other toppings. In fact, it was so full of seasoning that it became deconstructed. Messy street food is the best kind of street food!

    The Taco Stand in Wynwood is one of my favorite taco places in Miami and this location delivers the same fresh, made to order quality food without the hassle of going to Wynwood. The times I have been to this location there hasn't been a very long line and there is ample seating. Since the food is still made to order, you do have to wait a bit for your food still, but it's worth it! My all time favorite is the El Pastor.

    I cannot stop raving about this place. Coming from LA, there are more taco stands than there are people and it's hard to find a good one, but this chain needs to come to LA!!! All of the salsas, esquites, aguas frescas, handmade tortillas and flavorful carnes. Everything was so good!!! BRB booking a flight to MIA now so I can go eat here.

    By far the best taco place outside of Mexico City and in Miami. Place was styled after places in Mexico, simple but efficient. Staff was very friendly and calls out to let you know when your order is ready for pickup. Tacos, corn and guacamole were all fresh and delicious and I was happy about the mushroom tacos and burritos. Nice selection of cervezas and amazing michelada! Only thing I could think to improve it would be if more vegetarian options were offered and if there was outdoor seating, as the AC was set so high it made sitting inside too long uncomfortable.

    Excellent tacos. Large seating. Fun atmosphere. The tacos here are delicious! I particularly enjoyed the Camaron and Sonora tacos. The Camaron tacos (Shrimp) was flavorful, and loaded with Avocado,cheese, cabbage, toppings, and sauces. The Sonora was a steak tacos loaded with cheese, beans, Avocado, guacamole, onions and cilantro. The Pollo asada and the loaded fries were also a hit. What makes these tacos flavorful are the fluffy corn tortillas and they are served fully loaded. Most places only give you onions and cilantro. Taco stand gives you the works!! The staff was friendly, and the service was fast!

    Chicken tacos with guac, steak with guac
    Autumn N.

    Found this place on vaca that is open late night. They fry fresh churros to order that were an amazing way to end the meal. The star is the salsa bar with over 6+ free salsa options and fresh toppings like pickled onions, pico, creamy avocado sauce etc. food is fresh and cooked to order. Must eat fast because the cold toppings cool the food down quickly. Very clean inside and was full for a 1am meal. (Bonus - they have a location in Dallas as well)

    Chips and guacamole
    Sophie S.

    Pretty good spot for tacos. I ordered delivery which probably isn't the best for tacos but after a quick air fry they were good! The chips were so crunchy and perfectly salted and the guac was fresh. The carne asada and al pastor tacos were so flavorful but the fish taco was lacking. The shrimp taco was also great! Overall would go back here but go to the actual restaurant (not delivery).

    Spacious and bright dining area.
    Devin W.

    Little Havana location is just as good as wynwood location but a bit slower on preparing orders. Indoor dining only but it's very spacious with plenty of seating. Another enjoyable dining experience.

    So I absolutely love the taco stand I go to every location , wynwood is the best but this one is closer to my house , when the guy is working this place is amazing great customer service and they are super quick , every single time I'm here with these woman working it's always so slow , the line is out the door and they take forever to take your order why is the same person cooking taking orders. Ya need a better system

    Shrimp quesadilla
    Cindi W.

    Came here for lunch and got the shrimp quesadilla. It was huge and super cheesy!! I loved the salsa bar! Definitely a good spot for a quick meal.

    Pros: wow, wow, wow, DELICIOUS. The place is understated but don't let the outside fool you, the tacos are phenomenal. I had the shrimp taco and mushroom taco and they were the best tacos I've had in a long while. The music selection was also 10/10 with some banging salsa oldies. Cons: The only con is that it's not closer to my house. Will return soon.

    The Al Pastor were AMAZING!!! Best tacos I've had in a while! The shrimp ones were good but the Al Pastor were much better. The churros were yummy they weren't too hard and the fries were just okay. But I would totally go again just for the Al Pastor tacos 10/10! Service was also very nice it is a bit of a wait because they make things fresh and do get a bit packed. The place is also very cute and has parking which is a plus in Calle 8.

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. Closed Mon, Open: Tue, Wed, Thu, & Sun 10am-11pm, Thu & Fri 10am-1am. Nick & Liz, Albany, NY, USA

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 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!
