Tienda Los Gemelos - International Grocery Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

This is a small mexican convenient store and restaurant. I go there to get ripe plantains. I tried quesa-birria and chicken pambazos. Both was good. From the color I thought pambazos were more flavorful and spicy. But it was very mild. There are other authentic mexican goodies like soursop juice and peanut marzipan, which I get from time to time. Most of the staff dont understand English. read more

They almost kicked me out! I took a bite of the quesabirra taco and started crying. The other guests were uncomfortable and management didn't what me to be a distraction to the other patrons. Whatever. They were so good.... I had to cry. Don't judge. The quesabirra tacos were fan freaking tastic. I think they may only be available on the weekends, and today Cinco De Mayo. Very tender beef, tortilla dipped and cooked but not to a crisp. The dip was super flavorful. I dipped everyone one else's food in it too. In all fairness, it's a Mexican au jus so the saltiness of it may not be for everyone. Keep that in mind. Tacos to go are good as well, just saying. During the covid gap year(s) they didn't bring squeeze bottles of salsa, but they are doing that again. The green salsa is sweet, and the red has some piquín pepper kick. As always we also judge the queso (cheese dip) and it doesn't disappoint. enjoy, and remember if you see someone crying, it may be tears of joy. read more

After hearing John. G rave about the Birria Tacos at Los Gemelos, I had to stop by, and let me tell you, he was spot on--they were incredibly tasty! The tacos were generously filled with meat, and the sauce added a delightful savory kick. The torta and burrito were also a hit, boasting substantial portions that left me satisfied. I appreciated the thoughtful touch of being promptly served salsa and chips upon being seated. I'm already eager to return to explore more of their menu options and pay a visit to the Mexican supermarket attached to the restaurant. read more

I had been to Tienda Los Gemelos awhile back but couldn't remember too much about whether I liked it or not. I swung in here during an early weekday lunch when I was craving some tacos to go. I sat at the bar while I waited, and definitely would come back here to sample some margarita next time. All of the staff I interacted with were very nice and the food service was very efficient. Got my food quickly. I ordered three tacos to go - a steak, chicken, and pastor taco. All were yummy, cooked well, and had ample amount of meat inside the tacos. I certainly hope to return soon for dine-in at the bar and will update my review as necessary. Worth checking out, especially for the reasonable prices! read more

Tienda Los Gemelos - International Grocery Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

BEEST MEXICAN PLACE IN MADISON, hands down. Connected to a Mexican grocery store, this hidden gem on the west side is where you will find the most authentic tacos, gorditas, burritos, and enchiladas in town. Their salsa is banging and come with fresh made chips when you dine in. My personal favorites are only served on the weekend and include beef tongue (lengua) tacos and menudo, but truly, anything at this place will hit the spot. The burritos are massive and can be covered in sauce and cheese with juicy shredded chicken. Seriously, in love with this spot and go whenever I want some tacos to satisfy my craving. The only other thing I will say is that they prefer cash and mostly speak Spanish, but that's a sign of a truly authentic place if I've ever been to one ;) happy eating!! read more

Los Gamelos is definitely THE place to get all your Mexican food cravings in Madison! My first visit was 2 years ago and I have been coming every time I was in Madison. They were closed for quite a long time due to remodeling so its been a long time since then. I really enjoy eating their tacos. Tacos arent palm-sized like most of the tacos sold in Los Angeles but rather hand-sized. Its pretty big so it fills you up really good. I tried Carne Asada, Pastor and Pollo and they were all great. I personally liked the Pollo the most because it was sooo moist and yet flavorful. Soft cheese on top of shredded chicken meat was quite pleasant. Tostadas are also one of my favorites to get. If you dont want to get too messy, please dont order tostadas. You're going to end up getting messy no matter how hard you try. Not just here but EVERYWHERE else! Avocados, Queso Fresco and Crema on top of crispy tortilla bedded with your meat choice gives your mouth full of variety flavors! Maybe they can add or ask for thinly sliced onions and it will be PERFECT. Chips and Salsa is given as complimentary as you take a seat at the table. Servers are friendly and nice but sometimes its hard to find your server. Parking is spacious enough to accommodate large groups. As you enter la Tienda (store), feel free to grab a bottle of Jarrito to your table and they will just charge it onto your bill! After recent remodeling, redo of the store and the restaurant, Los Gamelos seem even more promising than before! Why dont you come and try their food with some margarita tonight? read more

This Westside gem has reopened after last winters devastating flooding. It is a classic Mexican grocery store cum taqueria, but oh so much more Easily top 3-5 taco joints in the county and definitely the class of the west side. At $2.50/taco and no minimum order, these are a bargain and $25-30 can easily feed a hungry family of 4. Options for tacos include carne asada, chorizo, pollo, pastor(marinated pork); and campechano (steak/chorizo) mix. We've had them all - Unless you don't eat red meat, get the carne, chorizo or campechano. Pastor is a bit fatty and pollo is forgettable. Pro tip - the tacos come double wrapped with corn tortillas. This throws off the ratio of soft shell to ingredients. Instead of peeling apart the often stuck together corn wrap, special order your tacos with fresh in-house made flour tortillas. Trust me, you'll thank me. The grocery store is also a hidden gem for Mexican groceries, cheap and fresh limes, avocados and fresh and dried hot peppers. So glad this joint is back open! read more

We got tacos and gorditas. Foods were good but nothing really stood out. I got Al pastor, steak and chorizo. The Al pastor was a bit salty. I don't think they put any pineapple slices with it. Also, they preferred cash over credit cards read more

Los Gemelos makes great street tacos! I love the lengue, cabeza, carne asada, and chorizo. They really give you a good amount of meat so the tacos aren't tortilla heavy. Also their horchata is delicious! They also give you a good amount of salsa which I super appreciate. The food is so tasty! I did have their quesadilla and I was less of a fan. The quesadilla had an interesting sweetness to it that I could not pinpoint. Also it felt like the quesadilla was separate components, rather than all coming together into one quesadilla. read more

Great Mexican Mexican in the back of a pretty decent mexican grocery. If what you want is traditional mexican food, served in a slightly run down and beat up store, this is your place. Full Bar. Salsa's are on the spicy side, fyi. I would give the food a 4, but since they have the full grocery, it gets bumped up. If you want super clean and neat....well....It's clean enough. read more

This place initially threw me off as the entrance is in the back of a Mexican grocery store, but they have some of my favorite tacos in Madison. I love their steak tacos and have also tried their tostadas which were great. They always bring ketchup containers filled with salsas to the table and I love adding it my tacos. Most recently, my friend got one of their pambazos, it was kinda like a greasier torta and quite tasty. One warning is that more recently their service has been pretty terrible and we basically had to flag down the servers to receive service at all, but sometimes that's the price you pay for a good taco. read more

Arrived around 2pm on a Sunday afternoon and the place was packed. Took around 50 minutes to get our order of steak fajitas, pork tamale, side of guacamole, 3 tacos (steak, chicken, pork) and Gordita (potato and chorizo). Waitress was nice but man, that's a long time to wait for food like that. Fajitas were just okay, more veggies than anything, lacked flavor (and salt), tamale wasn't good, but the proportion of meat to masa was admirable, gordita was okay, and the tacos, especially the steak taco, were delicious. I will go back for the steak and pork tacos. Chips and salsa at the table prior to meal - chips from a bag, not hot and fresh, green salsa, lots of heat and cilantro and fresh tomatoes. The guacamole was very good, freshly made, and only tomatoes, onion and cilantro with ripe avocados. The chips that adorned it were considerably fresher than the ones at the table. The beans were okay, the rice was terrible. It is definitely hidden; I knew about La Mestiza which is nearby (across the street) but you'd have to know this was here to even go looking for it. I'd likely go back for some margaritas and the steak tacos but that's it. There are other comparable authentic Mexican places in Madison - like Los Atlantes and Taqueria Guadalajara. read more

I've had a hard time finding authentic Mexican food in Madison, these are the best tacos I've found so far. Try the campechano tacos. The salsa they serve also tastes very homemade. Service was mid the first time I went but I'll be back for the food. También hablan español si quieres hacer órdenes por teléfono. read more

We've been to Tienda Los Gemelos several times. The food and the prices make it one of the best options for Mexican in Madison. It would be difficult to just stumble across Tienda Los Gemelos. It's tucked away in the back of a strip mall which is perpendicular to the road. There is no signage to let you know it's back there. If you are like us and looking for it based on the address it can still be hard to find. Once you have found it, you'll see a small Mexican Grocery. Walk through the grocery and you'll find a substantially large restaurant next door. It's seat yourself and pay at the counter afterwards. The service is fine. Some of the staff are more friendly than others. The chips and salsa are included. Both are fresh and tasty. The menu has a lot of options you don't see at the usual Tex-Mex restaurants. There are various tacos, tostadas, pambazos, gorditas, sopes, quesadillas, and tortas as well as plates such as Bistec a la Mexiana or pechuga a la plancha. Absolutely everything we have had there has been delicious and reasonable priced. On our last trip I had the bistec encebollado. The beef was wafer thin and the flavors were phenomenal. The rice was fluffy and the beans creamy. I really enjoy the food. The Horchata is delicious and we've always been pleased with the margaritas. Try Tienca Los Gemelos. You're sure to be pleased. read more

If you're looking for some excellent authentic Mexican food, you need to come to this restaurant! The BEST Mexican restaurant in Madison. Service is efficient and the perfect amount of niceness! Only thing to be prepared when coming here is that it is inside/connected to a grocery store - which you have to enter through. But as you head towards the back to the restaurant, you'll be surprised at how big the actual restaurant is! Esther's favorite: the pastor tacos! read more

Tienda Los Gemelos - My favorite - their tacos. A MUST! - International Grocery Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Food is great but service is horrible. The waitress was extremely rude they never asked us if we needed or wanted anything else. Just took are order dropped it to the table and ran off. Never came back we had to go to the front to ask for some napkins and she had a very bad attitude. read more

I absolutely love this place! The prices are super reasonable. I have had their potato and chorizo and shredded chicken gorditas, their pastor pork on the sope was amazing and super flavorful and that thing on its own is filling for under $4, their quesadillas were a bit different than I have had before, they were deep fried and looked like a taco, but boy were they cheesy! I had the quesadilla with shredded chicken and it went well with it. Last time I ordered the shredded chicken over a sope it was bland and not as flavorful as my second time around. Their milenesa plate is by far my favorite dish they have. Their horchata, micheladas, and salsa are all yummy. The restaurant is on the side of their store. Lots of goodies and fresh bakery goods at the entrance. Good views of the televisions from the seats, but both times it was a show that was in Spanish. There is a bar area in the corner that doesn't seem to be used much. Don't forget to grab a $1.50 paleta ice cream on the way out. One of my favorites is the rice cream - horchata on a stick. read more

Tienda Los Gemelos - Their horchatas are sooo good! - International Grocery Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Oh my goodness this place is exactly what I was looking for. After living in Texas most of my life, I needed a meal that would transport me closer to home and this place has it. From the store front entrance, you know you are walking in to a true Mexican restaurant. The sight of brightly colored pan welcomes you in. There is plenty of space in the restaurant for you and all of your friends. The horchata is on point and strawberry margaritas will knock your socks off. I've tried many items on the menu- all are delicious and authentic- and when you just want a simple street taco, this place does the trick. Very well priced. Worth going to again and again. read more

I can't imagine I didn't find this place for this long. Thank you yelpers for the recommendation. The restaurant is tucked nicely inside of the grocery store. It's real deceiving how small it looks from outside. It's a huge space inside. Very authentic charm to it. The menu was big, colorful and staff was very attentive. Even with some rush, we were served right away. We tried taco, gorditas, sopas and quesadillas. Everything we ate was excellent. I wanted tongue tacos but they ran out of it at 3pm... so I ordered steak instead. I am reluctant to give 5 stars just because their salsa wasn't as great as I have had at other Mexican restaurants in Madison. The chips wasn't made to order fresh as well. We would sure go again to this place. Anyone who likes a good authentic Mexican cuisine, must give this place a chance. There's plenty of space for huge groups as well. read more

All I can say is . . . Wow! Yelp has hit the nail on that head once again. In town for a conference and did a little shopping. I looked for a nearby place and this popped up. True to other reviews, the green salsa was excellent with some spice to it. It definitely wasn't one of those tomato bland salsas. The chips were good with just enough salt. I ordered a steak, chicken, and pork taco. Each one was very tasty and served mexican style. I added the green salsa and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. I also ordered a side of beans and rice. The rice was excellent. The beans looked a bit different and tasted good. Like others said, back of the grocery store and grab your cold drink out of the cooler. Overall, a really good meal that was tasty, flavorful, and quick. I will definitely be back again! read more

Tienda Los Gemelos - Steak, pork, chicken tacos. . . Yummy! - International Grocery Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

This restaurant was super tough to find. There's no online menu and no one picked up the phone. But after driving over and finding this hidden gem, I was rewarded with an amazing meal. This is the best Mexican food I've had. The asada tacos were amazing and you can buy tall boy modelos at the store you walk thru to get to the restaurant. read more

Food is a four, service a flat zero. Admittedly, we were in a rush. When you come in, there is no direction provided-signage or personal-as to whether you seat yourself, wait to be seated or place your order and then sit down. We had to ask 3 staff members for directions before being told to sit anywhere and someone would be over. The waitress came over and took our order which amounted to 6 beef tacos (four without toppings) and 2 pork gorditas. When we asked about beverages we were told to help ourself and pay at the register. Fine. We'll skip the drinks. The place is less than 1/4 full. Chips were fine, salsa was pretty poor. 32 minutes later and still no food. Now we need to leave to get our friend to the bus for an out of town trip. We flag down a waitress (ours had disappeared this whole time) and inform that any food has to be to go and we need to leave. I go to the register to pay. The staff seemed to have lost the order and didn't understand why I was paying and needing to leave. This takes another 5 minutes and we are out the door. Look-this is a little eatery affixed to a bodega. And the food is good but there is no way it takes 37 minutes for 6 tacos and 2 gorditas. We picked this place because it seemed simple and quick. Neither. Put up a sign and get your act together. read more

I'm sorry. I so wanted to love this place. Too many others to try to ever go back. Beans were great. Gordita was well made but there's no excuse for weak margaritas, VERY stale chips and watery tasteless salsa. The server was hardly ever around. Had to flag down other servers for more stale chips a second weak margarita (for $7.50)and had to take the leftovers to the desk to pack them. Nothing terrible and I have no ax to grind here. Just a bush league place. Finally on the way out of the store I got a piece of candy for my wife that was about a nickel's worth of sugar. It was a buck fifty. I'm sad. read more

Once in a while I hit a very authentic Mexican restaurant to remind myself how much I forget about food. This place was highly recommended by a friend. I decided I had to see what it was all about. First impression wasn't great. Very small facade that makes you wonder where the restaurant is. As you pass through the grocery store, you see it. Whew! The seating area was expansive, and they do their share of business (must be good, right?). We sat down and looked over the menu. The menu is a bit limited, but what they do, they do well. Now this is where "authentic" comes into play. You do not get a Taco Bell taco here. Me? I like stuff on my tacos, which is not the authentic style. I settled for a steak taco and a chicken quesadilla. The taco was okay, which I can't complain because I knew what I was doing. It needed stuff. But, with a little of the "salsa picante" from the bottle on the table, it was pretty decent. The quesadilla was a whole different ballgame. OH MY! I'm used to the pressed/toasted quesadillas, but this was fried (pan? deep? don't know, don't care!). With chicken, cheese and lettuce inside, it was so tasty! As far as atmosphere, I could do without some of the quirks. For one, the place was in a state of disrepair. A blue tarp hung, blocking off an area where there was banging and other noise. I get it - repairs, no big deal. Some of the seating was beat up, which I can live with, but I won't be taking the wife there. There was also soccer showing on TVs throughout the seating area, which was fine, but a little loud. Unfortunately, a goal was scored while we were there and we had to sit through three long breaths of "goooooooooooooal" from the announcer - interrupting our conversation until he was done celebrating. Service was fine - nothing extraordinary. It would help to go with someone who has been here before. They don't bring you drinks - you pick those out in the grocery area. When done, you walk up and pay (no check to the table that I was aware of). Will I eat here again? YES! For $3, the quesadilla was a potential one-item meal. For my mom and myself, the bill was $10.55. You can't beat that. Once you figure out what to order here, it is fantastic! read more

Oh so close to five stars! Really, not much to complain about here, classic "tienda taqueria"--head to the back of the store, grab a drink from the cooler, and prepare for some great Mexican food. Priced on par and above average for quality compared to other Mexican restaurants around town. What liked--low key atmosphere, the sauces in the table were both very tasty and spicy (maybe too much for some folks). I sampled four tacos, asada, chorizo, pollo and carnitas. I'd highly recommend the asada or the carnitas, with the carnitas being my favorite. Not crowded at all for dinner (sounds like it could get busy at lunch). What missed the mark? The pollo taco was unremarkable, and everyone at the table thought the food needed more seasoning. But the real sadness was that they only have lengua on the weekends! The lengua taco is the benchmark dish for me, so I'll stick with four stars until I get back on a weekend to try them out. I'm also strangely interested in trying the chicharron prensado... read more

I absolutely love this place! I only like this location and wasn't fond of the downtown location. Don't be thrown off by this little plaza grocery store...the restaurant is attached to it...it's like a hidden gem. I'm always craving their tacos! I could seriously eat like 6 tacos in one sitting :)! If you want Authentic Mexican food come here! I'm very picky and this is one of the more Authentic Mexican joints in Madison. If you get the tacos I suggest sticking with the steak tacos (Carne Asada). I always get their salsa verde (super yummy spicy green salsa) and sometimes the red salsa with them too! The steak tacos come with the onions and cilantro which give it the authentic flavor....squeeze the lime on them too...otherwise I can't help you if you think the tacos are bland. If you want something to drink you get it out the cooler of the grocery store. I think some people get confused with the service ...whether they are supposed to seat themselves or order at the counter. The thing is it's a laid back joint...the people are very friendly. Just go up to the counter first and they will ask you if you are getting food to go or dining in. Just let them know what you want to do. When it comes to the store...I love all the Mexican candy and the snacks! They got all the good Taki snack flavors and Cheeto Bolitas.....yummmm!!! The grocery store kind of reminds me of a cute little Bodega. read more

I love tacos, and I'm definitely coming back here for more. $2 a taco + no wait to sit down + pick your own drink from the grocery fridge + Mexican television in the background = pleasant afternoon. If you're going for tacos, I'd stick to the carne asada and al pastor. The chicken, even though covered with delicious cojita cheese, wasn't very flavorful. Even though there's plenty of room in the restaurant area and it's cool since you walk through the grocery store to get there, the atmosphere lacks a little - so you may not want to plan a romantic date at this Mexican grocery/restaurant. In that case, I'd recommend grabbing some cojita cheese and marinated beef from the deli to make those romantic tacos at home. Speaking of the grocery, it has some great items you won't normally find at other places, like Inka kola and tamarind soda. It seems a bit hit or miss though, but fun to look around. Nice selection of spices and candy. read more

This is indeed a hidden gem. I don't really care for the grocery store, but crawling all the way through to the back, you'll find a quiet and small restaurant. And boy can this small restaurant serve the most amazing and authentic Mexican dishes ever! And cheap, might I add! My first time at this place, I ordered 5 things on the menu, came out stuffed, and yearning to go back again. Whatever cheese they use must be fairy dust. Whatever taco shells and starch wrappings they use must be magical runes. Do not let the looks of Tienda Los Gemelos deceive you.

On the suggestion of a friend, we met at Los Gemelos for lunch one afternoon. Wow, I never would have found it on my own, but now that I know where it is, I have been back several times. Walk through the grocery store, and around the back you will find a large traditional Mexican restaurant. The restaurant is the perfect size for groups, or small gatherings, and the food. Oh, the food. Everything is homemade, and the chips and salsa flow. Watch for the homemade tamales, they serve them on weekends. read more

Service and food was a bit shaky on my last visit. For those that are unfamiliar, the dining room is attached to the grocery store (just walk thru it to get there). You order at the table but pay at the counter. I opted for the Pechuga ala plancha aka grilled chicken breast with salad, avocado, rice and beans. The entree arrived with sauteed onions on top and contained a few small breasts. I thought it was solid but afterwards my tongue and lips starting tingling which gives me thought that someone had a heavy hand with MSG. If that was the case, not cool (nor needed). My business partners opted for a few tacos pastor. What they got was steak-dry at that. I had better dishes in my previous visits so perhaps they just had an off day. But if this is the new standard in which they operate, there are too many other options in the Madison area to warrant a return. read more

Eep I ate WAY too much.. ordered a sope, a quesadilla, and a tostada. I will agree with everyone here that the food here is quite authentic, tasty, and affordable. What I loved: - Super fresh toppings- loved the cheese, tomatoes were juicy and not soggy, avocado was wonderful! - Extremely affordable and a ton of food! - Lots of space to hang out if eating in - AMAZING packaging for take-out. I was worried my experience would be compromised because I was ordering for take out.. the package it so nicely that it is still able to stay fresh! What I ordered: - Tostada al pastor: was a little on the salty/heavier side, but I can see this dish being very enjoyable for someone who likes flavor. Also, Pastor may potentially taste better in a taco or another dish with more wheat to meat ratio - Sope (for those who don't know, some explain it as a "Mexican pizza") campechano was also delish- very fresh avocado and really nicely prepped - Quesadilla with potatoes and chorizo - Yummy! Flavorful! :) .. A little less "interesting" in terms of the mixture of flavors compared to the other dishes, but I really liked the crispiness of the quesadilla. Will be trying this with other fillings next time! This is my personal preference, but I felt that the sope and tostada were a little on the dryer/tougher side for me- It was crispy but a little too hard and just wasn't my cup of tea, so I plan to be ordering tacos next time. Overall, great staff, yummy food. Had my dishes complemented with some yummy green sauce :) .. I guarantee you will be full! I was pushing it with three entrees.. probably will go with two tacos or one larger dish next time... read more

Great place, been there twice and gabbed tacos to go. Quality, authentic flavor profiles. Quick with take out orders, friendly staff too.

I was looking for a Mexican grocery store and found it here. BUT the gem is the attached restaurant.

I would give it 0 stars if I could. Service was slow and couldn't answer our questions. My girlfriend got a chx chimichanga and the chx had no flavor. Possibly off a rotisserie chx. I wish i was kidding. My tacos were overcooked and under filled. 1/10 would never recommend. Basic cleanliness was lacking. read more
