I'm only rating this for breakfast tacos. Not bad. The breakfast burrito was alright. Just get the tacos. Pretty good flavor. Good amount inside the tacos. Sauce was good. Just. Tacos. No other breakfast items. read more

El Taco Veloz - Tacos Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Love their food! I get it once per week. Usually barbacoa tacos on corn tortillas with a side of rice and beans. Awesome!

Place has really gone downhill. The owners need to have their food quality evaluated. As a recurring customer these are the issues. Burritos have less meat than an average taco. The meat is rubbery with dry tortillas. If you ask for no onions or a specific request they completely forget. I pad for extra meat on a burrito once and there was almost no meat. More beans and rice. If I wanted a bean and rice taco I would've made one at home read more

If your from Cali and want something that taste close to home this is the place for it! Only thing portions were small but that's ok. Recommended to try it. read more

This food taste like cat litter The service was quick and good but the tacos definitely disappoint me as a Mexican myself, this place should 100% shut down ASAP, the food would have tasted better if it had no flavor read more

this food was so dri it tasted like cardboard there was mos tortilla then meat and mango juice had mor water than mango and you have to beg for napkins read more

Taco Veloz is a constant off 20 and Buford hwy. Serving good Mexican food for as long as I can remember. I like everything on the menu. But I am a sucker for the steak burrito regular. (9 bucks). Its the best I've had. Why? Steak. All steak. A pich of onion, cilantro and a splash of Verde sauce. They have other variants like Supreme. Or special.. I go for the simple char grilled steak. Their tasty other sauces like Rojo, avocado, are excellent also. Give them a shot for your next burrito fix. DW read more

Recommended to me by some of my friends from Mexico, El Taco Veloz was not a disappointment. Always as an introduction I like to start with the basics, tacos carne asada. Their version was good and the meat was "picante" or spicy without any additional sauces. It was well-flavored and the toppings didn't hurt either. They past the first test and I definitely will return to try more menu items. The food taste gives the feel of a back of the carnicería spot but has a chain restaurant appearance. Best of both worlds. read more

This is my second time coming here and what is wrong with Georgia tacos?!?!?!? I ordered 2 steak taco and a torta. Both had no flavor! The steak had no flavor or no seasoning. The torta had refried beans on it and no mayo!! I'm sick of the food in Georgia and 5hus place had the nerves to say it has the best tacos in Georgia. If this is the best this is very upsetting!!!! read more

El Taco Veloz - Barely meat - Tacos Near Me - Buford, Georgia

See all

I just heated up my leftover tacos and rice and beans. I thought it would be rude not to tell our friends about our favorite taco spot .... especially since there is a new shop super close to our house. A long long time ago, way back in 1993, there was no internet. There was no Yelp nor Trip Advisor. In the Atlanta area, all we had was "Creative Loafing" (free un-edited paper) to help us find Nitelife, Live Music and Really Good, Authentic, Ethnic food from all over the world And also in home massages and people who would clean your homes wearing nothing but a bow tie. LOL Life was so simple back then.. Our favorite after hours, after hours (when restaurants finally closed) food was found 20 miles away on Roswell Rd near I-285. They were open til 4am and started again early morning. El Taco Veloz. You had to be brave and committed to drive there....and mostly sober with advance cash from your hangry friends. When we lived in Norcross a new ETV came to our area just as we were moving away. We ate their food once a week for 10 years. Now, now there is a brand new ETV only 3 miles from our home ....right up the street in Buford!!!!! It's got everything the original store had and more. Their counter people are friendly and professional (and multi-lingual), the kitchen is super fast and everything is hot, fresh and delicious. 8 tacos and 2 rice and beans to go with a handheld 1/2 gallon of Horchata all the salsa you can handle is around $25. The do amazing Tortas, too, and breakfast all day. El Taco Veloz 4372 Buford Dr Buford Ga 30518 read more

I'm a fan of the Doraville location, so I was very excited to see one opening close to my office. I've been twice now in the 11 days that it's been open, and I'm rather disappointed. Problem 1: Someone decided it would be a brilliant idea to have but 1 cash register/ordering station at a very popular restaurant. I've been there at 11am and at 12:50pm, and the line was to the door on both occasions. There's absolutely no reason anyone should wait up to 20 minutes to place an order for freaking tacos. Problem 2: I was pleased to see they had churros on the menu, because I thoroughly enjoy a good churro. I decided to be a nice guy an bring some back for my staff, but I asked the girl at the register "Do you guys make the churros here, yourself?" Her reply, "Yes. We make them." Great! I'll have 8! It took about 2 seconds at the office to see they were not made there. And you don't get chocolate or strawberry sauce to dip in, the factory injects it inside the churro. They were pretty wrong... Problem 3: Today, after they've been open for 8 days, from the moment I walked in, until I walked out with my carry out order: 33 minutes. That's unacceptable for tacos at lunch. And they messed up the order, forgetting a chicken taco and giving an extra shrimp. On the whole, I like the food, but this place absolutely needs a new manager. And an additional register. You cannot run a business like this. There's a Chevron just a mile up Buford Highway with a taco place in it that's delicious and the wait is half as long. I want to come back, but they have to get it right. read more

I really wanted to love this place. First, it is clean. The staff is working out the kinks and that's understandable. The food.... tasted like it was cooked in a pressure cooker or crockpot. I'm a faithful customer of another local taco shop, but I figured this place offered EVERYTHING and more that my old favorite offered. Unfortunately, the taste of the food is really lacking. It should also be noted that my children's quesadillas literally fell apart. You could not eat them while holding them. The chicken was totally slow cooked in a crock pot. Disappointed read more

The food is overpriced an flavorless! I was excited to check this place out, because I was riding by and the line was out the door twice. So, my wife and I decided to go for lunch. Warning: They have pictures on the wall of platters they sell, but have no prices on them. You assume that they would be reasonably priced, as the staff was very unhelpful with the small menus available at the one register that's available to order. We ordered the Carne a la Mexicana, two shrimp tacos, a burrito, some french fries, and two bottled Jalisco sodas. The total came to over $32!!! The tacos barely had 4 pieces of popcorn shrimp, the burrito was tiny, without the sour cream and cheese that I ordered on it, and the Carne a la Mexicana that was $12.50, was tough, tasteless mess. The rice was bland, and the refried beans that came with it look like a pale paste! Oh, and they couldn't provide an itemized receipt, because we purchased our order with a credit card. ???? Anyway. Needless to say, I won't be back! read more

Absolutely love this place!!! Been in this area about 4 years now and had the hardest time finding tacos that were authentic and delicious! This was it. So happy I found this place the tacos al pastor are my favorite!!! read more

my fav!!!!! staff is always so nice, the restaurant is always being cleaned and the food is amazing. 10/10

Una pena. Una taqueria Mexicana donde lo uno mexicano son los colores de decoración. Tacos servidos con salsa sin pedirla, preguntando que tipo de tortilla (maíz o Arian) y tacos de carnitas servidos como tacos de pastor. Por aparte un staff mal encarado, todos centro o suramericanos y pelo en la comida. Pésimo lugar. Eviten la visita. read more

Really best tacos in town I would go there every day and still not have enough Service is super good also Highly recommended read more

I had the worst customer service ever. It was a young guy who picked up and asked me to hold and never came back to the phone. After holding for 5 minutes I call on a different number and was told "if it happens it happens sometimes we forget & there is nothing we can do about it". He was so rude and unprofessional it was sad. Unfortunately, they have lost a good customer. Safe your money and patience. read more

Absolutely amazing food and great service!! Definitely recommend! The Carne Asada Burritos was delicious and cooked perfectly!

I love el taco veloz. I've been a customer for over 10 years and I'm super excited to have one in Buford. I visited the new location in Buford and right off the bat, Ashely the cashier greeted us with a big smile. She was very informative of the prices and the menu which i always tend to ignore. The food was just like i order it at the beaver ruin location which is a big plus on my book. Will definitely be visiting this location more often. read more

I'm so glad they are closer!! There are very few options in Buford for more authentic Mexican food and this place is it! I enjoy their barbacoa tacos and their carne asada burritos. The chilaquiles are beautiful on a Sunday morning. The salsas are always right! read more

Service was great! Food was authentic and tasted amazing. The people who work here love this restaurant and it shows in the quality of the food and service read more

This place needs a new manager. Very bad leadership and cannot communicate very well. I feel that the staff need someone who is well fit for a manager position. Recently I have been noticing that there is never a manager in the afternoon in case something goes wrong with customers and their order. I love this place, and I love the food. Very great employees with great attitudes. But something needs to be done if this place really wants to succeed in their new location on buford dr. read more

My husband went to go get food here. Very good food, he ordered a burrito and said in quote " it's bussin bussin ". He is very concerned about how much he is being taxed for a burrito. Very nice location and very beautiful bright sign. One other concern is that they forgot the avocado on the plate he ordered once but he still enjoyed it. We would like for them to continue this good customer service. We are loyal customers and we feel like we should not be taxed alot. NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION !! read more

For the price, their tacos are very small in comparison to other taco restaurants. The pictures on the wall are not what you get.

Picked up takeout for the family. Online order didn't work so we had to phone it in. Well worth the trouble. Best torta ever. In fact everything was delicious and very generous portions. Excellent tacos and the fish platter was great. I see myself becoming a regular! read more

Heard good things about this location from Mexican co-workers, so I called in an order for the Carne Asada plate and the Barbacoa Beef plate for dinner tonight. The first thing I noticed was that the employees were friendly and efficient, which is very important. The next thing I noticed was the huge serving sizes of my dinner plates - in addition to ample portions of perfectly seasoned and cooked rice and beans, each plate had enough meat to get 8 or 9 sizeable tacos. Both meats were excellent, but the flank steak in the Carne Asada was truly exceptional. It was juicy and as flavorful as could be. There was no doubt it was masterfully marinaded and then cooked on a real grill by someone who knew what they were doing! The tortillas were clearly handmade and piping hot. I could have eaten a plate of them plain and been happy! The green (tomatillo) sauce was excellent, and really complimented the fresh cilantro. There was one very minor letdown. On the website, they showed a big tank of Tamarindo drink. I therefore assumed from the picture that they made their own, but sadly, I found only bottled Jarritos at the store. In and of itself, it's a good beverage (uses real cane sugar) but I was rather anticipating the real thing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend El Taco Veloz to anyone looking for authentic Mexican dining. read more

I had been craving Some Menudo for a couple weeks now and couldn't find a place I felt comfortable buying it from and my brother recommended me to try el Taco Veloz and Very Glad I did, The Menudo was Very Very Tasty the meat was cut up into small chunk a which is great and the flavors were on point!!! My wife and daughters had some tamales and also said that they were good. read more

Best tacos and Mexican food. We tried chicken tacos, quesadillas, and chicken burrito. Simply best Mexican fast food in the city.

My daughter wanted to try this place, so today we did. It is next to Buford KFC in a parking lot, in what used to be the Buford Huddle House building on Hwy 20. They have fixed the interior up with booths and couple tables and chairs to dine at. The menu is basic street Mexican, not your TexMex most places serve. Prices were decent. Food was very tasty!! We both got burritos. Mine with carnitas and my daughter got chicken. They were large and the fillings very plentiful. The place stayed rather busy the whole time we were there with a lot of carry out. There is condiment bar that had different salsas, I tried their medium* green tomatillo, and their medium was more to me a hot!! One customer, we chatted with, said the Barbacoa tacos were one of his faves. The Tortas we saw several eating looked yummy too. We both decided we would need to return to try other items soon. Bufordites enjoy this place!! read more

This place is so annoying. It's like they don't want your business. It's nearly impossible to order takeout, because they rarely answer their phone. Then I drive by the place. It's open and empty. So why aren't you answering your phone? Decided to give this place another try and went there at 8pm Wednesday night, and they were closed. Is this a legitimate business? read more

Food was great! We ordered flautas which the chicken was cooked perfectly and flavors were outstanding. The soft tacos are doubled wrapped with corn tortillas. Price was reasonable. read more

I don't understand how it's a Mexican restaurant but the cashier doesn't speak any Spanish ...

Great food and friendly service! Plus they serve breakfast burritos all day! Will definitely be back!

I was excited to see this new taco spot open near us. However I was very disappointed with the service and the food. First the girls at the registers have the worst attitude, they were very rude. Not pleasant what's so ever, just young girls messing around. We waited nearly 30 minutes to get our food. When we finally get it, the portions are ridiculous for the price they ask for. Will not be returning. I recommend taco Jalisco in Buford way better tacos and service! read more
