    Cheese bites with sauce
    Saad H.

    The tacos with brisket are the best thing to order if you are staying to eat. If you are getting food to go they can get soggy so I would recommend the crunch wrap instead for preventing that! The service is always helpful and will even bring your food to you outside via the window and are great with recommending items. The overall setting gives like a small taco hole in the wall spot unless it's nice out and you sit at one of the picnic tables then there's a nice big open yard area that's not too crowded! The indoor area is painted with beautiful murals and different merchandise for sale. If you are in the mood for the best nachos in Beacon go here!

    WHERES the meat!!? Chipotle Chicken Taco
    Eric R.

    "Where's the beef!" Seriously that should be the slogan for this place because this is absolutely the WORST taco place I've been to. Where is the freaking meat!! I stopped in with some friends after a long day of hiking, we were all hurting all over and very hungry so we popped into here for a taco fix. The place is midsized with no table service (i.e. waiter) but you order and they kindly bring your meal to your table. If I had never had a taco in my life I likely would have enjoyed this place but who hasn't had a taco, a real life taco!?! I ordered 5 chicken tacos and a side order of fries because after my hike I came hangry! When my order of tacos was set in front of me I literally said out loud, "This is a joke right? Who put the staff up to pranking me? Where's the meat for my tacos!!" Lo and behold there was meat in my tacos but it was such a small amount that the veggies/onions outweighed the meat. The taco spot near my home serves tacos that has the meat falling out because they don't skimp and they use the same sized tortilla shells this place uses. I even pay less for those tacos local to my home. I ate 5 tacos at $4 a piece and I was basically still starving! So $30 later, including beverage which was the best part of my meal, for these dismal tacos that left me hungry. Thankfully I ordered a side order of fries, how can you mess that up right? Wrong! Fries they served were soggy and decent at best but maybe it was decent because I was hungry. If tacos were prices at like $2 MAX for the amount of meat they put in them then I'd bump my rating to a 3 star at best. When I tell you they put practically ZERO meat in your taco I'm not exaggerating just search reviews where others mention this. I thought they might have been exaggerating but nope they were not. I'll NEVER step foot in the place ever again! All that money wasted and I left starving only to make something to eat at home! If anyone thinks these tacos are awesome, please come here first before you walk in drunk from the local brewery down the road.

    Tostada with tofu

    Brisket tacos

    My friends and I dropped by right before a hike nearby. The inside decor was very cute to look at as we waited for our tacos. Inside, they have a nice small table for you to self serve your hot sauce for dine in or for takeout. Taste wise, they aren't the best tasting tacos - but a great snack pre or post hike!

    You won't find a sombrero or tequila in sight here. But what you'll find is a brief menu with a nice bag of Tex-Mex Tacos, Burritos, Empanadas choices and more. Tito has a dramatic, vibrant and larger-than-life almost-Catrina mural in this Tex-Mex joint dreamed up by Kamel Jamal. About 4 tables around Tito's perimeter, improvised condiment counter in the center and refreshments on the right. Service was super nice and so incredibly attentive. Flavors in our meals and some of the ingredients used were a bit unexpected. But between Vegan items for my daughter, meat for hubs and Pescatarian items for me, this was an interesting spot to cater to all of our needs.

    Food had no flavor and very gross the elote taste like the cheese was expired and smelled like feet. Don't waste your time or money Tacos are filled with onions and no meat

    We were craving tacos and stopped into Tito Santana Taqueria for an affordable lunch. The restaurant was diligently following COVID-19 regulations inside the shop to ensure social distancing and sanitization and also offered a good deal of outdoor seating. I decided to order 3 tacos: the Barbecue Chicken, the Shrimp, and the Portabella. The tender pulled chicken version had been topped with a sweet barbecue sauce, onions, and cilantro. The crisp, grilled shrimp taco included shredded cabbage, pickled onion, radish slices, creamy salsa verde, and zesty pico de gallo. The shrimp were so well-seasoned, making this the most enjoyable taco of the bunch. Lastly, the mushroom taco was topped with the same ingredients as the shrimp put possessed an obvious, more earthy flavor. While the fillings of each taco were delicious, the tortillas really stood out with their smooth texture and robust corn taste. We really enjoyed our visit to Tito Santana Taqueria and loved the variety and quality of their tacos.

    Burrito Bowl
    Sara W.

    Been wanting to try this place in Beacon for a while! Got the burrito bowl with pulled pork for $12-13, which is an okay price. The portion size is good, but I felt it was lacking in flavor. In addition, there were some bits of the rice that were hard (or undercooked?) and that was a bit disappointing. I like that they have plenty of outdoor seating. They probably could have more staff on hand since it was pretty busy but only one person as the cashier and delivering all the food out so that led to slow service for ordering. After ordering, the food came out fairly quick.

    I used to love this place. I've been going since it opened. Lately though, my food has been incredibly sub par. My quesadilla in front of me is filled with small, dry, burnt pieces of chicken. I have to pull it apart and remove them in order to eat any of it. The last 2 times I ordered tacos they were so dry I swore to never get them again. I'd love to know what's changed in the last few months are so to make me so disappointed with this place.

    Underwhelmed  Roasted Chicken Taco, Shrimp Taco and Brisket Taco ( not shown) with rotting avocado ( not shown)
    Carolyn F.

    Great looking casual restaurant with vibrant, custom murals. That's kind of where the hype ends. EXTREMELY expensive. The braised short rib is delicious as is the shredded Charles chicken that filled my soft corn tacos. $4 a piece was really underwhelming. The lowest price fillers such as cabbage and pickled radish or barely there. And short it felt a bit stingy for the price. My order: three orders of rice and black beans, three Mexican corn. Mexican corn was a dud with my family. Successful was the braised short rib filling in the tacos. The taco was overall not successful with a chintzy sprinkle of cabbage and a few sliced pickled radishes. Same thing for the shredded chicken tacos except I had asked for avocado which was horrifyingly well-past ripeness and black. The shrimp in the shrimp tacos was small but tasty. Cheese quesadilla was your best value and chicken and cheese quesadilla was completely ruined by the black mushy avocado that I added at a cost. Three servings of Mexican corn which was drowning in Crema and wound up in the circular file. Three delicious specialty sodas. The total before my 20% tip was over $100. For that, I could've enjoyed a sit down meal elsewhere..

    Ordered the chicken tortilla soup which we have had in the past and it used to be worth the spend. What we received today was a watery broth with some tortillas and avocado. The chicken was in little tiny shreds like it was left in the bottom of the pot. Not worthy of being called "chicken" tortilla soup and not with the $7. We will not be going back.

    A little of that decor

    On our way to Mt Beacon, we stopped at Tito Santana Taqueria to energize ourselves. It is located along Main St, a short walk from the train station. The tacos over here are $4 for the most part (except on Taco Tuesdays). We liked our tacos, ordering 6 in total, to be split among the three of us. Two would be filling unless you are really hungry. I had the steak taco and the tilapia, and liked the latter more. It isn't a cheap spot but it should help sate your hunger, especially if it is your first stop on a hike.

    It's been 8 years since I've eaten there? Visited the area & was hoping this place was still there- wanted something quick & filling. For about $13, I got a catfish taco, pulled pork taco & a Mexican Street corn. All really good, generously filled & very flavorful. Fresh ingredients, I don't mind the coleslaw topping, had some mustard seeds in it too. Catfish was a bit oily, might have been buttermilk battered? Pulled pork had a nice green salsa on it & sliced radishes. The street corn was smaller than expected (it is December...), but the cheese, mayo & slightly sweet chili powder on top was delicious. The shells are griddled! Yay, and a bit bigger that street-style shells. 2 Tacos were pretty hefty. The young guy behind the counter was very helpful & nice. Food came out super fast. I like the layout & murals of the place, a few communal tables. it seemed bigger than I remembered. Interested in the kale/sweet potato burrito next time+pork.

I will say it's one biggest burritos you could ever get, could not even eat it handheld, had to use a fork and knife. Also first time I seen a place that grilled cheese on the tortilla itself. The burrito was pretty filling, with meat and rice, also very flavorful, since other places put way too much lettuce and tomato as filler, to which in this case I had to search for lettuce and tomato in the mountain of meat and rice. Also the creamy chipotle sauce and red sauce which I think was regular chipotle sauce was really good, mixed it into the rice for an extra spicy and Smokey kick. The burrito itself is easily a two meal item.

Villa Picante is a small casual Mexican restaurant with table service and a robust takeout/delivery business. Inside is cute but not fancy. They have some accent pieces that add to the vibe. Service was terrific. I ordered the Alambre plate, shared Bistec Nachos and tried the Chicken in my son's Tinga Burrito. The Nachos were good. This is a good problem to have -- I think there was too much steak. LOL. The Guac was first rate. There was melted cheese and queso fresco. I could have used a bit less steak and more vegetables, but these were good nachos. The Alambre plate arrived like an awesome sizzling platter of fajitas with melted Oaxaca cheese over the top . It had steak, chorizo, onions, peppers. Our server (who also seemed like an owner), asked if I wanted it spicy and I said medium spicy. It was served with rice, beans and flour tortillas. This was really terrific. They nailed the spice level and the flavors were great. I loved the chorizo mixed in with the other traditional steak fajita ingredients. The flour tortillas were good. This dish exceeded my expectations. My 12 year old son is still exploring new foods, which I love, but sometimes they end up being different than he expects. He didn't love the chicken texture, but I think Villa Picante nailed the chicken and the burritos too. There was no cheap filler in the burrito. The chicken had great flavor and texture. I love Villa Picante. They have my high recommendation. I'd return if we had more time in town. 4.5 Stars
