    Churros

    I hate to do this, but I feel totally ripped off. I spent $70 on food that was truly awful. The churros were so over cooked that I could barley bite into them, the fried ice cream, well it wasn't fried ice cream. It was ice cream that was put in a type of ice cream cone type bowl. The orange marinated chicken had zero flavor, & my T-bone steak was equally as bland. The only reason it's getting two stars is because the beef tacos were okay.

    Yummy

    Taqueria Guadalajara has a bit of a tucked away location just on the outskirts of Winchester,…read morewhich gives it that standalone, local spot feel. While having its own building is a plus, parking can quickly become a headache during busy hours, so timing your visit makes a difference. Walking in, there wasn't a host present, which made the entrance feel a little unorganized at first. However, a server quickly stepped in and pointed us in the right direction. From there, the experience improved the service was genuinely friendly and attentive, which helped set a positive tone for the meal. The burrito was the highlight. It came out well prepared with solid flavor throughout, even though it didn't include any sides. Normally, that might feel like something is missing, but the taste was good enough to carry the dish on its own. Pricing leans a bit on the higher side, which is something to keep in mind, especially given the lack of extras. Overall, Taqueria Guadalajara delivers where it matters most good flavor and friendly service even if it has a few logistical hiccups like parking and the initial lack of greeting. It's the kind of place that leaves you debating between a 4 and a 5, but the quality of the food ultimately pushes it into 5-star territory

    Returned for the first time in a while, and it was the most crowded I've ever seen the place…read more Strongly recommend they consider some pads on the ceiling to absorb the sound, or maybe a carpet, but our table of three was shouting to hear each other on a Tuesday night. Salsa continues to be delicious (albeit punishing the next day), and of my three tacos, carnitas was the only one to write home about. Pescado was fishy (not in the good way), and the al pastor was, again, just okay. Pointed out my chipped water glass to the server, who was apologetic and promptly replaced it. Best tacos in the area continue to be Los Altos de Jalisco in Winchester. I said what I said.

    Great location, wonderful food, reasonable prices and great ambiance. The name translates to…read moreMexican Cowboy, and that theme is reflected throughout in the artwork and food. The service was excellent and the portions were large. I love the menu and the variety of dishes. They played great dance music all the time, but we were able to easily talk and enjoy our meal. The parking was free, and it was fun to walk around afterwards and enjoy the historic square.

    I have eaten here on several occasions and always had a wonderful, tasty experience!…read moreThe inside has a lot of bright, fun colors and Mexican flags and other themed paintings. It is bright, cheerful and very clean. The menu has the typical Mexican restaurant options like tacos, fajitas, quesadillas, enchiladas and burritos and the also have a kids menu. I love their chorizo con huevo because not a lot of places have that kind of dish on their menu. It is chorizo (theirs has a great deal of flavor and isn't greasy like chorizo sometimes can be), onions, peppers and eggs. They serve it with tortillas and rice. Lots of food and packed with flavor. I have also tasted the enciladas and my husband loved the cowboy burrito. For drinks, especially during the summer they have awesome daily specials. I've tried the watermelon water and the cucumber lime. So very refreshing! Service is friendly and attentive and they are great about answering any questions that you might have about menu items. I highly recommend having lunch or dinner here and then heading next door to the creamery for delicious ice cream.
