Breakfast tacos, which should be called burritos because they are so big, are delicious!

Service was top notch and the food was delicious! The migas taco was it was sized like a burrito and so good. I'll definitely be stopping here on my way to the beach every time I go. read more

Alright - it's been quite a while since I was last in town, but man do I get a hankering for breakfast tacos! Only one issue - been hanging with our Cajun friends for the month Before and let's just say I need a detox from eating way to much super good food (most all homemade outside on a grill or in a black pot) and, well, maybe a few more adult beverages than I should... but, TACOS..... I know - Taco bowl - upgrade to the fajita. Oh yes, that was just right - good balance between taco heaven and maintaining.... Ok, not destroying the detox!!! read more

The problem was the restaurant smelt like a porta potty. it made me feel sick just smelling it. we had to leave.

Tacos tasted really good and were huge. Will definitely go back if I am in the area. Recommended !!! read more

The tacos are generally really great! I've had the breakfast tacos and the street tacos, my mom has had a lunch plate and all have been really good. Every once in awhile, you'll get a breakfast taco that's a little more greasy or something else may be a little off but they're typically amazing. Always, always get the green sauce, it elevates everything to the next level. read more

My favorite little place to get breakfast tacos. The food is always great. The service is fast and the people and atmosphere are always cheerful. read more

Little place downtown, open for just breakfast and lunch. I had a taste of a few items. Tamale was tasty but over salted. Spanish rice was perfectly spiced in my opinion. Refried beans were hearty but the flavor wasn't my favorite (I compare everything to my Mexican Grandma's homemade food, cant help it) their cheese enchilada was yum, hard to mess those up! Their street tacos were raved about so I tried them, they were classic and definitely tasty. Food actually took a bit longer than I'm used to so if you're in a hurry, order ahead. read more

As long as you DON'T expect a reply to your expression of a " Good Morning " or "Have a good day," you'll be fine. The food is average.

I love good breakfast tacos and these guys make awesome breakfast tacos!!! I had a potato, egg, avocado taco and put their red and green sauce on it. It was delicious!!! My son had a Downtown Taco and he said it was great!!! We will definitely be back!!! read more

Downtown Tacos - Potatoes, eggs, and avocados breakfast taco! Best in town! - Mexican Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

Visited this place yesterday with my partner who really liked the tacos. As a vegetarian, I typically can find something to eat anywhere. Unfortunately at DownTown taco's, the only option for me was the Cheese Quesadilla. Here's my problem...the 15 year-old staff working didn't really know anything about the menu. When I asked what was meat-free, they offered up a chicken option - when I said chicken was meat, they looked confused and then laughed and said "oh yeah." I asked if I could get something without meat, and would it be the same price to which they simply said, "well you can get extra veggy's but no discount..." Alas, I ordered the quesadilla (which was just ok, very little flavor) it came with beans and rice, to which I asked if they were vegetarian and answered with a yes - alas, the beans were chock-full of pork when the plate arrived. My boyfriend loved his meal, albeit we both thought charging $2.50 for chips/salsa was a little off putting as you have to wait a bit to get your meal. With the right management and service plan, I believe this place could be decent - but too many times, excellent cooks/chef's open a place knowing very little about all the little details that truly make a restaurant worthy of greatness, and repeat business from someone like myself! read more

Love the breakfast tacos. We hit this place about 2 Saturdays a month and I'm always very satisfied!

DO NOT EAT HERE!! It was my 1st visit and I called in 2 chorizo, potato, egg and cheese breakfast tacos for me and my client. Picked them up on the way to work and when I bit into mine, the potatoes were frozen French fries that weren't even fried. They were still cold and hard in the middle. Not that big of a deal. I took them back to get a refund and the one lady behind the counter was one of the rudest people I have ever dealt with,told me they don't use frozen potatoes, I didn't know what I was talking about, was insulting and very rude as she gave my money back. Then she called me a "STUPID, FAT, WHITE, BI***H in Spanish as I was walking out the door. I speak very decent Spanish so I know this is exactly what she said. DO NOT EAT HERE!! TAKE YOUR MONEY TO BUSINESSES THAT APPRECIATE IT!!!! read more

6+ errors in 1 order.. My husband had to go back because they forgot his taco and once he delivered me and my coworkers are food we noticed 2 plates had no avocado , 2 with no Sautéed onion , all 3 plates had no Lime as they always do and all 3 cups of beans had a spoon filled of beans and the rest was just water.. after bringing that to the "managers" attention she basically said I was lying because her cooks said different and if I wanted to drive all the way back so she can refund the avocado and onion . My ISSUE is MY HUSBAND ALREADY HAD TO GO BACK FOR A MISTAKE YALL DID BY FORGETTING HIS TACO AND NOW BECAUSE OF MISSING LIME ONION AND AVOCADO. I just wish the manager would've been more empathic with more customer service skills because although she might not really care she lost 4 loyal customers . read more

Favorite go to place for breakfast burritos. Friendly staff, bilingual. Gluten free options. When I'm running late and miss out on my breakfast fix, I can still order with Waitrapp.com. https://waitrapp.com/restaurants/620 read more

Ripped off after the hurricane. Overpriced taco with under proportion size. The "Downtown Taco" is their more expensive Taco and is "usually "more substance to it. read more

Downtown Tacos - Ripped off - Mexican Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

The food here is excellent most of the time. I usually get orders to go, but today, we ate at the restaurant. They were cleaning the tables after some customers had left, and the smell of Fabuloso overpowered the smell of the food. I will never understand why anyone would choose to use this awful product, but certainly not in a place where you want people to smell your great food. This product is a general cleaner, not a disinfectant, which is what a restaurant should use. I'll still get food there, but no more dining in. 3 stars because of cleaner. read more

Pros and literally the only reason for the 2 stars: The tacos are huge. More than a person can eat in one sitting. That leads me to the cons: If a customer is made aware of the size or hell told anything about any item on the menu, you would be able to make a more informed decision. Customer service is lacking. My order came out wrong. When I explained that the meat was missing from the taco, I was told it wasn't. I know what meat looks like. When I sent it back, it was returned still wrong. Pretty sure it's not a lack of understanding. More like a lack of listening and or caring. There was plenty of side conversations going on, though. Tacos tasted ok for what I did receive. Would not return simply due to lack of customer service. read more

Was good the first couple times I had it the last time we had it we got food poisoning from the breakfast burritos & cookies were raw in the middle read more

I've twice tried to give my business to this establishment recently. I have eaten here several times in 2017, and never had a problem, but....my last 2 experiences have been less than stellar. In November, I went in to order a breakfast taco to go, the total with tax, comes out to $4.87, I attempted to pay with my debit card, but was told there is a $5 minimum. I left and took my business to Lupitas on Dixie Dr. Now, I'm pretty sure that the breakfast taco is a pretty popular order, so it doesn't seem to make much sense to me to refuse someone's business over 13 cents....but oh well. Today, I tried to order something to go about 10 minutes before they closed, just a taco. It would have been a quick order, and I would been out before actual closing time. Instead, I was informed that they were already closed at 12:51... Also, their Yelp profile says they close at 2 pm.... Anyway, that was my last time to stop by there. I will hit one of the many other taco places in the area from now on. read more

This three star is for food not for the service . You guys have good food . Price is not the concern but on things like salsa on take out order are helpful for a positive view. I am upset about it caz I personally called and asked to make sure they got the salsa for the order..but they end throwing green salsa only.. at least you should ask or if u are not sure then put both kind salsas.. read more

This place is the bomb! I'm not sure why this is not a regular on my dining out choices. This is the closest to what I grew up with, that I have seen anywhere. This quaint mom and pop style restaurant makes me feel like I'm in my BFFs kitchen with her mom Linda and we have just put homemade tortillas on the comal. It's so much more than just a meal :) read more

The food is really good, but $23 and 40 minutes is just unacceptable for four breakfast tacos. In a county full of amazing taco places, Downtown Tacos really needs to get it together. We've been regulars for a while, but we're moving on. read more

I picked up plates for lunch On a Sunday afternoon. My chalupa chips were soggy. This is a pet peeve of mine. My son got beef fajitas and was only given one large flour tortilla. Our to-go order did not include chips and salsa as we are accustomed to. Red and green hot sauce was provided. I love Tex Mex so would not call it terrible, just disappointing in certain areas. read more

Aside from customer service that's a little inattentive pour yourself a real cup of coffee and sit down to a very flavorful hippo Burrito! I did. Loved it lunch specials and yes this place does sell tamales even though I couldn't get a straight answer as to how big around they are! read more

Downtown Tacos - I've wondered if this place was good! Oh yes!!! - Mexican Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

Got a bacon, egg and potato breakfast taco. I'll say one thing it's a large breakfast taco. Potatos look like frozen french fries, not fried too well and half-way through eating it I'm still looking for the bacon. I guess it'll do, but if you have the time get your breakfast taco from Phat Boyz. read more

Their street tacos and breakfast tacos are really quite a treat! The service may take a bit longer than a fast food place, but the quality is well worth it. We often call in lunch orders for our whole clinic and every time they're perfect. read more

Best tacos in town!!! The tacos are truly so so good! The hot sauce is good! Great service and good prices! They usually have sweeties or empanadas here as well, which are always so good as well! read more

First time to eat here was today and had the miga with avocado. Absolutely wonderful. Be careful with the green sauce - it is HOT but delicious. Red sauce is great too. We will be back. read more

Great place for lunch or breakfast. Great tortillas on every taco and friendly service. My favorite is the downtown taco. This is a place has been our go-to for years. read more

I'll preface this by saying that most of the foods we've tried here were amazingly good. The flour tortillas are huge, are thick and have a really good flavor. The enchiladas are awesome. The breakfast tacos and migas were both really excellent. The -2 stars are for the tamales. They are awful. Dry, crumbly, scant filling, no seasoning in the dough. The first time we ordered a dozen to go, we thought it was a fluke because everything else is SO good. We ordered them again and had the same problem. As long as you stay away from the tamales, you're good! read more

Food taste funny, menudo really taste terrible. The Tortilla taste just don't have that real quality taste to them. This business will never reach that craziness peak, like taco loco. Unless they fire all cooks and get some real cooks in there. Good luck. I always give them a chance, but they disappoint me every time. read more

Tried for first time...Last time! Ordered hippos,and got 4 egg,bean,cheese,and 1 tiny piece of bacon tacos,that tasted like day old meat. Should have driven into freeport and gone to Taco Zayra...dont get cheated out of your money,if you want a yummy breakfast taco drive past Downtown Tacos read more

Best tacos around. Huge size and love the tortillas. Better than the other places around who use warmed up tortillas out of the freezer. I drive from Angletom to get one. read more

The food is decent here, but the service is so slow. If you come here, plan to wait 30+ minutes for an undersized hippo taco. They are almost always out of coffee when I visit, and it takes a good 15 minutes for them to brew a fresh pot. If I order chips and salsa, I want it at the table before the rest of my food comes out. read more

Food is good but just paid $9.20 for one taco!!! Taco had chicken fajita, egg, beans, and avocado. Won't be back.
