This area continues to grow and with that growth, we see some very good restaurants like this popping up. As I said, this is a great local alternative than having to drive into either Huntsville or Madison to get your Mexican food fix. Gordo's Street Tacos is a great option if you are craving Mexican food and don't feel like taking the drive to Huntsville. I will give Gordo's Street Tacos five stars for being a good option a bit off of the beaten path.

She kindly remembered me and was so very gracious and generous. The Enchiladas Suizas are just as delicious--the sauce is bold and zesty without being spicy. This time I asked her to bring more shredded cheese--"por favor dame más queso rallado!" She answered with pleasure and brought back a generous cupful. I promptly poured all over the refried beans and enchiladas. Much better! I saw that $3 queso was added to the check but I love cheese and don't mind. Now you know it's an option for ANY order. Choose as you prefer. If anything, I recommend this place even more. Take the extra drive! This is real Mexican, served to true Lexican flavors.

But this is the only truly authentic Mexican food I've had in Huntsville. I got 1 steak and 2 lamb corn quesadillas and a side of beans and rice. The lamb and steak are ridiculously tender.

All of it was delicious and not overloaded with cheese, which is what bugs me most about Americanized Mexican restaurants. The staff is quite friendly as well and very playful.

Guacamole casera is a specialty at this restaurant. Chunks of avocado, onions, tomatoes, cilantro and jalapenos with lime juice and salt. So delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed this appetizer. 5/5 Birria tacos are not on the menu. But they have the best in my humble opinion. Seasoned but not greasy and salty. They fill up the taco shells with lots of meat. The meat is tender, succulent, seasoned well, and plentiful. The consommé is delicious and not greasy or too salty. 5/5 Lunch chicken fajitas were steaming hot delivered with a plate of refried beans, Mexican rice, lettuce, pico, sour cream and guacamole. The fajitas were seasoned well, not too salty and absolutely delicious. 5/5 Michelada was on my mind. I haven't had one in a while. Their Michelada was made with Modelo and Clamato with tajin on the rim. Delicious!!! 5/5 If you like guacamole and birria tacos. Please stop by to check out the foods.

The rice and beans were really good as well. The tacos had double corn tortillas and amazing meat with cilantro and onions on top. With a fresh lime squeeze it heightened the flavor.

The food truck itself seemed very clean and it was super simple to order. The two gentlemen that I saw inside were super nice and helpful when I ordered since it was my very first time being here. The food was ready super quick as well. Next time I definitely want to try tamale and maybe the gorditas. So glad Ardmore has a new restaurant and they deliver within a certain mileage!

We've been to El Vaquero twice now to play trivia. While we enjoy the clean amenities and our…read moretrivia caller, both times, we've all been incredibly unhappy with our food. The restaurant is spacious and gets loud when there's a crowd. Thankfully, there's usually a place for our larger group (6 people) to be seated comfortably. Service is very nice but slow. Trivia runs for a little over an hour and both times our food has taken about 45 minutes to come out, despite our comparatively small orders. My friend who comes to trivia does like the food here (he always gets a beef chimichanga FWIW), but everyone else has now tried several different dishes and not once been satisfied or even just not unhappy. The one shining star has been the cheese dip. It really is pretty good cheese dip, lol. The first time I ordered the chipotle chicken, which is supposed to be chicken in a chipotle sauce. I was firstly surprised and disappointed to see these were small strips of chicken rather than a chicken breast. But that would've been okay...had the chipotle sauce been decent. It had no chipotle flavor and honestly mostly just tasted like sour cream. It was very weird. My parents have tried a beef burrito, beef taco, and chicken taco. They said the beef has an unpleasant metallic taste and the shredded chicken was, according to my dad, inedible. Most recently, my husband got a carne asada burrito and said it tasted so unpleasant he was concerned about whether he should even eat it. Fortunately, no ill effects came about as a result of it; he determined it was ultimately just very low quality meat with an unpleasant texture and taste. My father in law just doesn't order anything except a beer after coming for breakfast once and having a bad time there, too. On my most recent visit, I got a side of rice and beans to eat with chips and cheese dip. The rice had been cooked into sticky, mushy lumps and had no flavor. At this point, I have no idea what to order that might even come close to satisfying my palate. It's disappointing. We may be forced back due to circumstances like our availability in order for us to play our favorite game and have time together. If so, I'll continue to try different things until I can maybe someday find something that works. I want to like this place and wish I had the experience so many other reviewers have had.

I got the Pollo la Marina dinner which is chicken and shrimp with mixed (grilled) vegetables and white rice. The rice has small squares of carrots and some green peas mixed in it. It is Flavorless and pasty. The vegetables have the consistency of being boiled instead of grilled. Again, Flavorless. The chicken and shrimp are covered in some kind of odd looking grayish-brown sauce that tastes like gravy you would put on mashed potatoes. It is not visually appealing and the taste is not complimentary to this dish! I expected authentic Mexican flavors but the chicken and shrimp have none! I'm actually kind of shocked at the lack of taste in this dish! The best taste I had, sadly, was from the salsa that came with the chips on the side! I'm disappointed to say that I strongly advise against this Pollo la Marina dish unless you enjoy the weird blandness of hospital food with a side of runny gray liquid that tastes like gravy. Service, on the other hand is good! Very nice folks who provide quick service! The ambiance of the restaurant is very nice with booth seating.
