This place is so beat-down and unassuming from the outside that you'll probably blow right by it. Don't. I had an asada torta, and it was one of the best I've ever had. The house sauces (in transparent squeeze bottles, as they should be) were great. Service was friendly and fast. Only bummer is no alcohol (at least temporarily), but I was here for work so couldn't partake anyway. read more

Tortas El Guero - I ordered a torta n I got a burrito dis jus disgusting - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Its not a food truck - but the building its in is about the same size as one. Mexican street food is what they sell and they do a pretty good job. You wont find any ambiance or decor here. And to be honest the whole place is in desperate need of a bottle of windex and 409. It is a bonafide dump. But I'm not grading the look. I'm grading the food. Pastor burrito had the right flavors and came with some good hot/mild sauces. Price was right. Makes for a good hit-n-run meal at a good price. Works for me ! read more

Tortas El Guero - Asada burrito and fries - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

This unassuming place really packs a punch when it comes to flavorful food! We've been going here for the last few weeks off and on and have had great experiences each time. The food is prepared very well and the portion sizes are plentiful. We've had their nachos, quesadilla, alambre, and tortas. Everything was delicious and filling. They even have some menu items that are more of the authentic variety (such as tripa and menudo). The only thing that is not my favorite about it is there doesn't always seem to be a lot of drink options, at least ones that work for us. My husband is type 1 diabetic, so if he wants a soda it needs to be diet. They didn't have any diet options when we were there last. They do have other beverage options, so if diet drinks are not in the equation for you, then you shouldn't have an issue with their choices. Despite the small beverage item, Tortas is quickly becoming my go-to for Mexican take out. There is seating inside, but we prefer to just pick it up and take it home. Also there is some parking right in front of the building. They seem to work with a skeleton crew so sometimes patience is needed, but everyone we've encountered have been super friendly and the food is worth the wait! Looking forward to working our way through the rest of the menu! read more

Tortas El Guero - Asada y chorizo Alambre and asada burrito grande. - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Good food sweet lady who works there. Queso is delicious, burritos are tasty and beans and rice are really good.

Got the steak tacos and steak burrito. Both were pretty good, but not the best tacos I've had in the area. Walked in and ordered carry out. Super quick, was out of there with food in hand in no more than 5 minutes. read more

The food here is delicious. Their specialty is a dish called Tortas, but they have other options as well. A Torta kind of resembles an off the grill hoagie. The bread is crispy but light weight. The cheese is melted and delicious. I also want to add they are not stingy when it comes to stuffing their Tortas. They also have different agua frescas, but they vary when you visit. The service was great and because i consider it a hidden gem it's spacious and quiet. read more

Tortas El Guero - Menu - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Vivo cerca y he intentado más que 3 o 4 veces de la comida, siempre pensando, tal vez será mejor la próxima vez. Hoy intente una vez más, dando chance de éxito! Desgraciadamente, me atendió una señorita muy mal humor, así que supuse que no tenía ayuda. Pedí ingredientes adicionales al burro, y repasamos los ingredientes. No pusieron más que la carne, queso, y arroz y frijoles. ZERO de los 5 que confirme con la caja. Aparte que la tortilla agotado de grasa. Tendré que pensarlo más antes de regresar ó no ? Ahora que abre el centro logística a cruzar la calle, tal vez habrán cambiado el menu read more

Hidden gem! The carnitas taco and pastor taco satisfied by craving for authentic Mexican! The chips were lacking in flavor and the salsa was different but the tacos were perfect! Fresh tortillas, fresh ingredients and a price you can't beat! read more

Maybe it was my experience. But I found this place to be overhyped. It was my first time eating there and I get my usual. Carne asada tacos with onions and cilantro. We also got steak nachos. Issues with the order.. issue one my steak was mostly fat and less STEAK! Literally majority of my meal was made up of cooked fat. I couldn't decide on weather or not I like the steak because I had pieces of cooked fat every other bite. My husband had great chicken tacos which is what's saving this review. All in all, I don't believe the food was as hyped as I've heard it's indys best tacos read more

Soooo where do I begin?? I drive past this place everyday to take my daughter to school . I sat on Yelp tonight for a good hour trying to pick a Hispanic place and finally settled on this one. It said it was cheaper than most ( some menu items on here are more expensive in store). We pulled up closer to closing time and there was nobody in the lot or inside the place. I ordered the fajita mix (chicken, steak, and shrimp) and asked if I could get an extra side of shrimp. She didn't understand me well and it took a minute to get where I was going. All the while she is staring at my bald spots on my head. ( I have alopecia, left my hat in the car because I thought it looked dumb, should've just worn it in) I haven't felt that uncomfortable about it in public in awhile. Also ordered the guacamole. Wasn't sure about drinks since none were really listed with prices. Let me say the food is the only thing saving this. The extra order of shrimp was $3 and was a huge bowl. The funky guac cost more than that! My daughter hates the guacamole (usually loves it) but this one was more of a fresh take on it, I didn't mind eating it on the tortilla with the fajita mix. She brought out the food but forgot the guacamole. Big portions, got full fast. Rice and beans are extra as compared to other places that give it to you with the meal. Probably won't go back for awhile and if I do it'll be maybe during a better time? Want to try the torta. read more

Tortas El Guero - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Very good Torta. Didn't try the tacos this time but last time I had it was delicious. The are is really bad and building from the outside looks crappy, but the inside is better. Horchata was on point. Mexicans don't eat burritos so I will not try it since that isn't authentic so I can't say anything about that. I'm giving this a 4 star because the chips weren't the ones we usually eat. Salsa felt from the can (except the ones for the actual food) and the outside look. The actual food was great. read more

Tortas El Guero - Torta duranguense - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Only been here once and can't wait to return! Ordering is easy enough-- look at the large menu canvas hanging above the counter and order there. Be sure to check out the daily drink specials posted by the front door. We ordered the Heineken special for $3.99 and the mugs were so cold, part of the beer had frozen and was floating in it! I ordered the Tacos Supreme with steak. It came overflowing with toppings that I ended up using my fork at first. My husband ordered a burrito (it was National Burrito Day) and it was so big that he had enough leftover for lunch the next day. read more

Not too much effort in providing a pleasant dining experience. The chips and salsa were very good. Ordered fajitas. The chicken was reheated. The tortilla shells tasted homemade. read more

Decided to try this little Mexican restaurant for lunch today. You walk up to the counter to order and pay and they will bring the food to your table. The negatives first: * They had some nice beer selections on tap, but the taps weren't working-disappointed * Several TV's around the room, but they were very loud and playing children's shows, that, combined with some Spanish music in the background was a little annoying for me *. Not a big deal, but I ordered one taco as Supreme and the other with just the cilantro and onion, but both came out as Supreme. The girl offered to take it back, but I was ok with it the way it was. *. Our waitress had a little difficulty understanding English and when we asked if there was a spicier sauce than what was on the table, I don't think she understood. I am pretty sure they have a red sauce that is hot, based on what other reviewers have said. I didn't care for the brown sauce that we were served, however, I did like the verde sauce. *. Tortilla chips were not made fresh, they were ok, but nothing special The positives: *. Several choices of bottled beer available, they also have several other soft drinks to choose from *. My tacos were good...had one steak and one pastor, both served in a corn tortilla shell, both very tasty *. Guacamole was fresh, but needed salt and the cheese sauce was pretty good, did have to ask them to heat it though, it was not warm when it was served to us * Reasonable prices All in all, it's pretty good. I would recommend it for a lunch or quick dinner, but probably not for a night out type of evening. We may visit again sometime, but want to try some other places for comparison.

The food is fantastic!! Everything was very flavorful. It is a small place, but everyone was friendly and very concerned with our experience. Definitely worth stopping in and taking a look. We will be coming back. You order at counter and they give you a number and then bring you, your food. We started off with chips and queso. The chips tasted homemade. The queso was tasty. My wife likes it more than me. I'm not a cheese lover like she is. My wife and I both got chicken burritos. They were stuffed and we didn't even get them as "grande" which includes rice and beans inside. We also got 2 steak tacos to try the steak. They were awesome. I only got them with onion and cilantro and the flavor was great. I add some Verde sauce they have. It has a small amount of heat, but great flavor. The Red sauce is straight fire. It has nice flavor, but the heat from it is crazy. I love really spicy food, but this was too much for me. It is popular, everyone there was using it. The prices are good. 2 large burritos, 2 tacos, chips & queso and 2 sodas for about $20. Can't beat that. The soda is cans or bottles so no refills. Cans were $1. read more

So much love for this local hot spot! There are always cars in the lot and now that my husband and I have both been here, we're totally coming back. The tacos supreme are so filling no matter what meat you get. The drink specials are incredible. We came on a Sunday - the drink special was 5 Coronas for $12.99. You can't beat that ANYWHERE. Seriously, try this place. It's so nondescript and unassuming from the outside. Which is the first tell-tale sign that it's gonna be good. If you're in the Irvington area, you need to order tacos from Tortas El Guero. read more

Our fajitas were delicious. They had great seasoning, the portion was generous, and the prices are a very good value. They impressed me with how cold or bottle of Coke came out. The staff was very friendly. The ambiance is stark, but it gets the job done. Although the Latin is inconspicuous along Brookville Rd. on the east side, a consistent flow of people were making their way in just fine. This makes for a nice casual quick bite at a decent price. read more

Great tortas. Good prices. It's easy to order here. I always get chicken tortas and the meat is good quality

My favorite authentic Mexican restaurant. The portions are huge, I always make two meals out of one order. Try the Cubana Tortas, Grande Burrito or any of the Alambres. Orders include a couple slices of cucumber, several jalapeños, and a red n green sauce. The chips n salsa served if you dine in is awesome, fresh chips and the salsa has a fruity hot bite to it. Considering the portions and freshness of the food, the prices are a steal! I've attached a current menu. read more

Wonder if original owner is gone or something seems like people who works there don't care anymore , aguas frescas seems made out of packets with extra sugar on it , Tortas are ok , the pozole seems like somebody else beside a Mexican cook and serve it , front help not as friendly , has been twice that we ask for cups and didn't get one , last time for me read more

The Best Mexican food I've ever had . (I'm white tho so take that with a grain of salt)

I selfishly would like to keep this place as under wraps as possible, however in the spirit of Yelp I am going to say this is a run don't walk type of place. Hands down this was the best torta (asada) that I have ever had! The steak was perfect, the bun was steamed and soft, tomato, avocado, and lettuce were all fresh, the cheese melted and the cream a great addition to balance everything out. I was also able to try the Pastor tacos which were super flavorful, but the homemade tortillas were the standout for the tacos. The menu looks to be not just encompassing, but creative too! I am excited to try some of their specialty sandwiches, especially the Hawaiian. On top of everything else the staff was fast and friendly, the location is perfect for me, so I know that this is going to be a place that really cuts into my exploring of other restaurants. read more

Absolutely love this place. My boyfriend and I get a grande steak burrito every time. Sometimes we each get our own, but one is really big enough to share. Authentic and delicious. read more

Hands down the best tacos I've ever had, and I eat a lot of tacos. Lots of flavor, the mole is amazing and you can't beat the price. Alambres and quesadillas are excellent too! I eat here every Friday. read more

I've eaten here about three times now and more than anything, I give it 5 stars for its prices and food. Service is fast and the only thing that we've had gone wrong a couple of times was getting the wrong food...including one that was takeout (drove 15 mins only to have to drive back). But nonetheless, I have really enjoyed every meal here. The actual restaurant lacks atmosphere and is very plain inside but most times I get take out anyway. read more

I ordered the asada tacos and a asada burrito. This was probably the best burrito I've ever eaten. Fresh ingredients and the meat was very flavorful. The prices are reasonable, the portions are huge and the service is pretty good. I definitely plan on going back and trying other menu items. read more

Love this place! So glad they opened this location. The tacos are amazing and really filling. You can't be the prices for the quality and quantity of food that you get. I used to make special trips to the other location and I am thrilled that I have one closer to home now. read more

Tortas El Guero - Tacos! - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Friendly service. Food was greasy but didn't bother me; otherwise pretty good especially for the price. Queso was disappointing.

Good, solid Mexican food. They have changed their menu a bit over the past year and have more quesadilla and nacho options, but the best things are their alambres., tortas, and burritos. Yes, they've raised their prices since they opened, but they should have. I can't see how they were making money at the original prices. Their prices are still very fair. Also, the staff is more then friendly! English is not their first language, and if Spanish isn't yours, double check your order before you leave, or give them a chance to make it right before you blast them! They are my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! read more

This is my first visit to El G. The jamon with chicken OMG was Amazingly Delicious. The portions are for two but my inner fat girl ate a whole sandwich. Fresh cucumber, jalapeno peppers, avocado and more . Chips and the best salsa in the city. My friend and I ate for under $20. I'll see definitely be back to try more on the menu soon. read more

I had the Cubana sandwich and a ground beef soft taco. The menu describes the sandwich as "CUBANA $7.99 Simply the best of its kind! Pork, ham, breaded steak,cheese, avocado, jalapeno, tomatoe, lettuce & mayo" I will definitely at least be trying out their burritos and more tacos at least. But the Cubana was not good. I was hungry, but the meats were all tough and chewy and surprisingly lacking much flavor! The presentation/appearance was very good, and it was served with a nice bag of lime slices and cucumber slices, but I ended up kind of pulling the Cubana apart, and trying to eat the components, but it was just not good! I used to go to a torta place called Super Tortas in Speedway, and those torta sandwiches were REALLY GOOD! Too bad the place was torn down because it was super good and I went there every time I was in Speedway! I don't think I will be trying any of their signature tortas anytime soon, but I will definitely seriously consider ordering more tacos and burritos! read more
