    Bistec tacos with cilantro and onion- perfect street taco
    Jordan G.

    Love this place! Service is always so fast and prices are affordable! Definitely not a sit down restaurant but perfect for a quick street taco or meal to go!

    Three tacos: chorizo; beef; and chicken; each with cheese. Tasty!
    Peter S.

    I like this place, tasty, affordable, and quick. It's a hole in the wall as part of a Hispanic grocery store. It's small, with just a few seats, but it has a real mom-and-pop, authentic feel. Definitely old school, but I like that. They don't seem to speak much English but that's all good. I was able to order from the menu which is in English also. I had three tacos, one chorizo, one chicken, and one beef. On all three I got with cheese. I thought the tortillas were very unique and tasty, soft but with a nice chew. The chicken was a little plain (or very lightly seasoned) for me, but it was juicy and good with cheese and some of the hot sauce that you can use as you like. (The condiments: cilantro, raw white onion, and sauces, you kind of just spoon yourself out of little plastic round tubs.) The beef and chorizo tacos I thought were very tasty. I did add cheese to all of mine, and I spooned some of the orange colored sauce on to them to give them a little bit of zing. The side of rice and beans were a good addition, they weren't amazing or anything, but they were hearty and did the job. This cafe is definitely affordable, a taco only being $1.75 and a quesadilla I believe $3.50. so I feel like I could probably spend around five bucks and get a tasty, and fulfilling lunch. As I said, the place is kind of old-fashioned, small, and informal. it's a hole in the wall, so nothing fancy here. And it's definitely not a chain or anything. however I thought the service was fast, the food was very tasty, and it was affordable. I liked the cook also. So I will definitely return probably often.

    Wey good and authentic tacos, The best around the area O live very far from this place and yet is worth the 30 mile drive. Try the asada and buche tacos Also they have like four or five different types of salsa All very good

    Another great experience today. I ordered the shredded beef tacos and boy were they delicious. The tacos came on corn tortilla shells. They tasted very fresh as did all the other ingredients. You were given the option to include onions, cilantro, and cheese. I had them all as well as the homage hot sauce they provide. The beef was very juicy. The hot sauce definitely has some kick to it. I highly recommend these tasty delights.

    El Senor's Tacos is (in my opinion) the best authentic Mexican food in the area. Very affordable, tasty and fresh. We ordered a couple tacos and a steak burrito. The burrito was huge, cheesy, filling and delicious. There are numerous freshly made salsas on the tables that you help yourselves to. The seating is basic but works. There are a couple tables outside as well. El Senor's Tacos is a great place to eat!

    Quesadilla pastor
    Cara Mia D.

    This is my favorite stop when I'm craving delicious Mexican food. The pastor is my favorite, my husband always gets the chorizo, and the kids either get the steak or chicken. The lengua is great. On the weekends you can buy pozole, tonight's special was rojo. In the summer my daughter always gets the horchata. We usually shop in the market while our food is cooking, picking up essentials for cooking at home.

    Highly recommend! Excellent food and great prices! A little hard to find because it's located in a grocery store but definitely worth it.

    I eat here and was pleased with food, very good buche tacos. One complain maybe there needs to be more salsa options but overall great food.

    Consistently authentic taqueria! The OG in Painesville. But, is no longer the GOAT of the area.
