The street tacos and egg rolls were very good and the service was fast and friendly. Small area to eat but it was clean.

I got the nopales cactus tacos with all the toppings and it was so fresh UGH so good. It's street taco style which i like and the fresh tomatoes and cilantro on top made it. and of course a spritz from the lime wedge. i got the size of chips and salsa and the salsa tasted fresh as well. I did however forget to order and grab a drink from the fridge so this is your heads up. they had some sauces/salsas on the counter to try too and those were good. My friends which got chicken tacos, a barbacoa wrap, rice and beans all say it was great and we'd go back. The staff was nice and checked in on us during the meal even though it wasn't a server type restaurant. that was a nice touch. we came on a saturday before a concert at michigan lottery and two other parties came in later on. can't wait to come back! read more

El Taco Dojo - Nopales Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Clinton Township, Michigan

After moving to the area, I make a list of places that I wanted to try, and El Taco Dojo made the list. My husband and I stopped in to grab some lunch. Immediately upon entry, I was slightly turned off. The dining area was dirty and dingy. And the person taking the orders seemed to be having a rough go at life, with a bit of a snap in their tone. We ordered our food to-go, which took about 10 minutes or so. The kitchen area looked cleaner than the dining area, thankfully. When we got home, we ate our tacos. They were alright. The chips were delicious. They do have a selection of four different salsas to choose from, which I enjoyed. I love supporting local, however, not sure if I will be back. read more

El Taco Dojo - Mexican Near Me - Clinton Township, Michigan

El Taco Dojo, my new favorite food stop. Craving some good street tacos, I followed the reviews here, and they did not disappoint. The food here is absolutely delicious! I've tried the chicken, steak, pulled pork, and grilled pork tacos so far; and I honestly can't pick a favorite, just sooooooooo good. Seriously, whether a burrito, Dojowrap, Taco, quesadilla, or a simple side of rice, you can't go wrong. I also need to add that I have a ridiculous amount of food allergies/sensitivities, and I'm so delighted to say that I had NO reactions at all after eating here. They did a fantastic job avoiding cross contamination by keeping their open kitchen work area clean, and visibly wearing gloves when handling any food. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but it has a great vibe. I love the art on the walls. There is some indoor seating available, so you can dine-in or take out, and the parking lot has plenty of room. I will note that did not happen to see a public restroom available, but I also did not happen to ask either. I need to mention that the employees themselves are great! Patient while you make choices, offering suggestions if asked, helpful with making alterations for special diets, and overall just friendly, great guys. I highly recommend you stop by and have a meal from El Taco Dojo, and I have a feeling they will be seeing a lot of my family and I from now on. read more

Grabbed two 3 taco plates for my team member and me. Mine with 3 chicken tacos, side of chips and guacamole, side of beans. Second one was one chicken, one beef, one pastor and side of chips and guacamole. $34.98. The condiments are lettuce, cilantro, onion, tomatoes. The chips were decent, crunchy and seasoned. The guacamole was also pretty good lots of red onions and flavorful and fresh. The chicken tacos were damaged. I had some fatty and Sie pieces and my three tacos. The refried beans were decent, whole beans still intact in it. A bit dry though. My team member enjoyed their pastor, pork, chicken and beef as well, chips and salsa too. read more

I went to El Taco Dojo on Hayes Rd after work/Ordered food to go/It was busier this visit-vs-previous; a bit of a wait, but worth it! read more

Was greeted warmly. The place is kind of dingy and dirty. The steak burrito I got was actually very good, but honestly it was super pricey. Probably won't go again unless they do lunch specials. Their combos were in the $teens! I can get 2 tacos rice and beans and a pop for $8 at Amigos Street Tacos. read more

Popped in while my son was at the dentist next door. Shared a barbacoa quesadilla and chips and salsa. It was AMAZING! Highly recommend

Yup, this place lives up to the hype. The steak tacos were great but the chicken quesadilla was even better. They aren't skimpy with the meats. The house made chips, guacamole, and salsas were all great too! Super easy to order online and it was ready and packaged nicely when I got there a few minutes early read more

Decided to try a different Mexican place. Tacos were great. Had 3 steak tacos with the chips and salsa. Unique and very good. They give you extra salsa for free too. If you have a taste for Mexican with a little twist give them a try. read more

This is an epic place for amazing Mexican street food. Everything we had was great but, there were a couple of things that were truly exceptional. When give a place 5* on Yelp, that signifies the restaurant is a destination...worth going out of your way to get this food. There is so much to like about El Taco Dojo. 1) everything is house made. The ingredients are fresh and delicious 2) the dudes that run the joint take a great deal of pride in what they do. They were excited to talk with us about their menu items and quick to share samples of before we ordered. 3) portions sizes were generous 4) the salas, my goodness were they fantastic. The pineapple habanero in particular was amazing. I added it to my Al pastor taco and it was perfection 5) they may serve the best basket of chips and guacamole in metro Detroit. As I said, every thing is house made, chips included. They were nice and crispy with a great seasoning blend, they certainly didn't come from a bag 6) their elote is great. I usually don't like mayo based foods but this was well balanced with lime that gave some nice counter to the richness of the mayo 7) all 3 of the proteins I tried, Barbacoa, Al pastor and chorizo were great. May have been the best chorizo I've ever had Macomb county is over run with mediocre Meh-xican restaurants that serve up flavorless, Americanized junk. It's so exciting to have an alternative that serves great, well crafted Mexican food. Now that I've tried it...I know I'll be back...often read more

El Taco Dojo is mainly a carryout restaurant with limited seating. The food is fresh and excellent. The owners are friendly and service is fast. I've had the Dojo Wrap Carnitas Combo. Yum! And it's huge. They have many options plus the ubiquitous 3 Taco Combo or à la carte items. They offer Taco Bowls, Quesadillas, Mexican Egg Rolls, Tortas and Burritos. They've been there a year, and I just found out about them. Wish I had known sooner. I will be frequenting often. Best thing they are only 3 minutes away! read more

My wife and I tried this for the first time And we're highly impressed. I'm assuming it was the owner that greeted/helped us and he was welcoming and helpful. We both got their version of the Crunchwrap, one asada and one chicken. Both were spectacular give me 14 of em. The side of chips and guac were also delicious. I personally wasn't a fan of the salsas provided on the front counter but everyone has their own taste My wife gave it a 10/10. We're excited to come back and try some other menu items! read more

Fantastic!! My daughter and I are absolutely hooked. The customer service is very friendly and courteous. Five stars all the way!

The food was good excellent. Generous portions and the elote was wow every part of my nachos was delicious. Definitely going back

Fantastic spot! Tried 4 different tacos and the egg rolls. Everything was amazing. Staff is super friendly and helpful as well!

I'd give this place ZERO stars if I could ONLY because of the lack of integrity of the man my husband & I spoke with this evening. My was looking forward to trying the food because my husband said it was pretty good. We ordered online & I ordered the cactus bowl with EXTRA cheese. When my husband brought it home my bowl was a COMPLETELY different order. It was a veggie bowl instead with NO cheese. My husband called in & spoke with a man who said "Oh well, we're out of cactus." Okay, so then instead of mentioning that to the customer you're going to give them something YOU rather them have? My husband responded "It would've been nice to know that before I left. That's the whole reason why my wife ordered it & she's allergic to meat." The man DID at least offer a refund...HOWEVER, I got on the phone & I asked the man, "isn't a cactus bowl more expensive than veggie bowl even with extra cheese?" He responded "No, they're the same price. Well, either he doesn't know the prices of his items or he's a straight up LIAR because the MENU STATES OTHERWISE. I then mentioned that I also ordered extra cheese only to get NO cheese. He then began arguing stating "impossible, there HAS TO BE cheese on it!" I said "Just like there HAS to be cactus on it as well, but there isn't & we weren't made aware of it, just charged for it & given something cheaper?" I ended up just giving the phone back to my husband at that point. I will give them the benefit of the doubt...if they DID put Cheese on it it was so minimal to where I'd probably would've been able to count the shreds...this is my EXTRA CHEESE. So, after being scammed & called a LIAR...here's the pics EVERYONE! read more

The food is way better than any Mexican restaurant in Macomb county, bar none. Go try them.

Love the choice of salsa and the small containers to use. My wife and I got a few things all the food was great. She got the chicken quesadilla with chips and salsa and I got the steak burrito with rice and beans. They come with drinks as well and can upgrade to bigger drink for $1 and we got peppers and onions for $1 more each and it was worth it. Sorry no pictures but online is very accurate. Worth a stop and the money and will be back. The service was very nice and answered all our questions and offer more chips as well. read more

So delicious! We had the nachos which were huge, and easy to share. The chips are seasoned, and the toppings were fresh. It was sooooooo good!! Super friendly staff, and the price was right :) read more

Amazing tacos, saw tiktok video and realized was less then mile away. Tried grilled chicken tacos, my bf had steak tacos. We will be returning and quite often. read more

Do not order from here. Didn't even get a chance to put an order in because, the customer service was that rude. Sounded like the kind of place that would spit in your food just because they're having a bad day. read more

This by far is the WORST service & tacos I ever had in Michigan. To top it off I waited a long time for my food when there was only one customer which ordered after me but got the same order fist & then I realize when finally eating it wasn't all the way cooked. They tried charging $5 more for my order walks away from register when ringing me up. I spoke with Patrick there which doesn't want to say the owners name so he won't be a aware. BEWARE OF THIS UNPROFESSIONAL OVERPIRCED PLACE for undercooked weak tacos you be charged $5 each for read more

The pork nachos was OK. The chicken and beef tacos had absolutely no type of flavor but peppers. The only thing that had a little flavor was the nachos cause of the seasoning on the chips was happy to get the food until I tasted the tacos. I went off the reviews, but never again. read more

Good food for sure. The amount you get is worth what you spend. The beans and rice are above average compared to other places. Wide wide variety of salsas for every taste. read more

I hate to give a bad review bc the two young men who worked there were so extremely nice, and they kept apologizing for our wait (they were waiting on some rice to finish cooking) but the food really was terrible (in our opinion) and we'll never go back. The rice was Spanish style (not Mexican style) and was still slightly crunchy bc they were trying to finish cooking it as quickly as possible. I can't remember our entire order but the chips and salsa were terrible and the rest of the food was pretty awful as well. We only tried it bc the Yelp reviews were so glowing. They were either fake reviews or the people who left them have zero taste buds. The "dining room" was tiny and the tables needed cleaned. I waited to post this bc I really didn't want to leave a bad review (which is why I can't remember our entire order) but I didn't want someone to have a bad experience like we did. Needless to say, try at your own risk, and hopefully your experience is better than ours. read more

This was my second trip here and will not be my last. The folks working are super friendly and answer any questions with a smile. They'll talk with you while making the food and you can tell they put pride in what they serve. I've only had the tacos but they are so worth it. Shredded steak, shredded chicken, pulled pork...each of these were amazing. All fresh ingredients and the shells were packed with meats, onion, cilantro, lettuce and then the sauce options are exceptional as well. There's some not spicy tomatillo which is good, a hot one that puts a nice tingle in your mouth, and my surprising favorite is a pineapple that just makes the flavor of the taco pop. There's an extra hot I didn't try and another I forget but these just add the little extra flavor to an already great taco. Also had chips and guacamole and these were freshly made there tasted great as well. There isn't a ton of seating inside but you don't feel crowded if you want to stay and dine in. If you want a quick taco with amazing flavors and super friendly staff you need to go here! read more
