    We went to Bevmo next door on a friday night to get some booze and we saw this. I said to my husband let's try it and so we did. We just shared the El pastor burrito bit I forgot to take a pic. Anyways, it was really good but dor $13 it's pretty small compared to the other taquerias we always goto nearby around our area. I like supporting small businesses so It's okay. I asked for 2 extra sauces and we didn't get charged. The young man who was serving us was good and nice. It is just a small place but clean and has some cute decor. I recommend this place and maybe we'll go back to try their tacos too.

    My husband and I came to Cinco TacoBar on a Sunday afternoon. The work stations & restaurant are incredibly clean. It's casual seating inside. Great for takeout & or a quick bite. The tortillas are made to order and pressed fresh in front of you, truly tasted like it was made with love. It's chipotle style where you're asked what you'd like in the taco. The mango picco de gallo is delicious & can't be found at many taquerias. The protein was delicious! The beef brisket was so juicy, flavorful and tender. The steak (carne asada) was also really juicy. Don't get me started on the churros.... THEY ARE DELICIOUS. Made to order and came out hot and ready. The churros were stuff ed and presented so nice. The chips were also fresh and super delicious! Authentic Mexican tacos, chefs kiss! The staff were really kind. I 100% will be coming back and ordering take out & coming in person.

    Cinco Taco Bar is like a local version of Chipotle, only better! The selection here went beyond tacos, burritos, and bowls and included other Mexican fare and snacks. Even their tacos were a step up, as they were made with freshly-griddled corn tortillas, served along with a huge selection of proteins and toppings. I tried the Carne Asada, Carnitas, and Salpicon (braised beef brisket), along with toppings of onion, cilantro, pico de gallo, guacamole, creamy slaw, pickled onions, cheese, and salsas (mild green, smoky red, spicy habanero, and chipotle mayo). I also got the Taco Salad, built on a crunchy tortilla bowl along with rice, beans, and all the fixings! Overall, the food here was tasty, and the chips and salsa even came for free. Because everything was prepared and served from a steam table, however, not everything was at peak freshness, but this still made for an affordable, tasty meal!

    Eating area, nice colorful painting a decor.

    Yummy agua fresca de piña, and taco bowl de pastor. Great flavor and good experience. Close to Bayfair mall

    Came here on a weekday during the lunch rush hour. They seem to take much longer for the special dishes like the enchiladas and the flautas, and honestly the flautas that I ordered for the first time last week was disappointing. The flautas were small and also had pieces of chicken skin and tendons that were not even cooked thoroughly, since they were slimy and had a very wet moisture to them. The flautas were really wet inside and I was disappointed by that. I get that they are trying to make everything fresh, including the tortillas, but hopefully they are able to improve the dish since it was not appetizing to me. I do appreciate the fresh tortillas made in front of me and the fresh toppings but definitely need to plan/call ahead if you're not just eating a burrito, bowl, or tacos since the wait can be much longer otherwise. The chicken in the taco I got was also kind of dry.

    Stopped by for a quick lunch and everything was delicious. Got the papa loca and it was so worth it. Fries were very hot and fuffly and all the fixins made it irresistible. Also got a fish taco and oh man that was a loaded taco that was as big as 2. If I lived nearby I'd definitely come back a lot Food: 7/10 Service: 6/10 Vibes: 6/10 Value: 7/10

While the burrito was definitely "super" in size, the proportions were way off. It was heavily packed with rice and beans--which were fine--but they clearly skimped on the carne asada. When you're paying for a premium burrito, you expect the meat to be the star of the show, not a background character. It felt more like a vegetarian burrito with a few guest appearances by the steak. If you're looking for a massive meal and don't mind the filler, this hits the spot, but for those of us looking for a balanced meat-to-rice ratio, this one missed the mark. Hopefully, it was just an off day for the line cook.

Not a lot of taco spots are open late at 10p but I saw that PNT was open. My family and I pulled into the driveway and were confused because it looked and sounded like a bar. There were a few people standing outside and I asked if this was a bar or restaurant and the gentleman said it's a restaurant. We walk in and got some stares because it was late and we had kids. Didn't matter to us. Everything on the menu sounded delish and they had al day breakfast items. We ended up going with the following: 1. Chicken sandwich- 10/10 my teen loved this. It was a crispy thinly sliced chicken breast with all the fixings, and pressed to perfection. 2. Chicken Caesar salad - 10/10 the lettuce was Romain, tossed in Caesar dressing and parm, with grilled chicken filet. 3. 4 tacos de asada - 10/10 yummy chopped steak, seasoned and grilled to perfection. I'm not sure if the evening chef cooks better or maybe we were starving, but the food was great! Ambience at the time was pretty loud but I figure it's because people hanging out in the bar area. Definitely will be back.

It was like pulling teeth to get water, tortillas, salsa, and refills. Even when it was time to go we waited for someone to bring us a check and a box nothing so I put on a timer. 12 minutes till I I saw another patron get up to pay at register so I did to. Our server finally acknowledged our existence and when I asked him for a box and the check he brought a box then proceeded to do anything else but bring us our check.

When they're on point with your order it's a really tasty burrito. I think it was a winner when I got the salsa throughout the burrito and not just on one side. Also no bones is definitely and always appreciated. When it's not their best day there will be a tiny bone in your burrito. I told the bf this and he was like at least you know it's fresh cut meat (wft?!). I'm cool with no bones. I do find their burritos on the salty side, which I guess for some that means flavor. I sometimes enjoy their meats but I've had a lot of better places. I tried their passion fruit aqua fresca the first time I went there and it was really good. But every other time it's been bad. I think and hope they mashed up the seeds from the passion fruit into the drink. Also I think they supplement the drink with pineapple juice. I'm cool with Kerns, but don't call it passion fruit when it's mainly pineapple. Located by the railroad tracks on Hesperian. They have their own parking lot. They have a lot of bad drivers as customers so please be cautious and these people think they can back up park too. Not sure on the pricing since this is the bf's fave spot so he treats. But judging on previous reviews it's market pricing. Overall it's okay for the area and we live down the street. But I honestly crave other places.
