Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's what they are known for!) Beans and rice on the side are optional / modest extra charge - they are usually very good and worth adding if you're hungry enough. My favorite sauce is the Chipotle. It's got heat as it's also creamy...I would call it medium (I like spicy food.) If you're getting them to go, you might want the sauce and toppings on the side. They usually ask about that, but occasionally they might forget. Service is usually friendly and efficient even when they are busy. Your food is made to order, so it's fast but not instantaneous. Allow 5-10 minutes for pickup most of the time. The dining room is medium-sized. I would say it's a place to eat and go, not stay and linger. read more

Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the whole place had that warm, local-favorite vibe. We ordered the flautas with chipotle sauce and the chilaquiles with half red and half green sauce. The chilaquiles were absolutely amazing. We added a runny egg since we couldn't do chicken, and it gave the dish extra flavor and a good boost of protein. The flautas (which I'd honestly describe more as taquitos dorados) were crunchy and tasty. We liked the chipotle sauce that came with them, but we actually loved dipping them into the chilaquile sauce even more. Overall, it was a great spot to grab breakfast before hitting the road again for many more hours. Highly recommend! read more

El Taquito - Flauta - Mexican Near Me - El Paso, Texas

We landed in El Paso came here for lunch. It's in a strip mall with plenty of parking. We were greeted quickly and told to pick our table. Our server was very pleasant, took our order, and our food came pretty quickly. The 2 whom order flautas were happy with their orders. I ordered the fajitas, but the meat was too salty, so I ended up eating more carbs than I wanted to so that I could eat the meat. The day special seems to be a good deal. I thought 1/2 an order wouldn't be enough, but that's still 3 flautas. My friend was very impressed w/the soup which hit the spot. The regular flautas were pretty plain but in a good way. When you're ready to pay, go to the cashier and tell them what your table number is,. In the end, excellent service, good food, and we'd return. read more

Totally surprise myself by picking this for the team! We wanted breakfast but not my team's choice so I'm happy this one turned out great! This is a great find and I would definitely recommend going here! First time I've had a Torta and I liked it alot! That will be my option to try at future restaurants. The Guacamole was by one of the best I tasted! Chips were freshly made and were delivered to the table hot! The server and staff were amazing and always asking if we needed anything. Lots of memorabilia on the walls and worth checking out. read more

This place a is truly a gem in El Paso and the food and staff was amazing. It's a small little shop but big on friendliness, cleanness, and amazing taste on the food. I ordered the huevos a la mexicana with some steak and potatoes and it was one of the best foods I had in El Paso. The food portions were very generous and I also ordered some avocado with my food and unlike most places I got more than 3 slices of it for a very good price. I would recommend this place for anybody wanted to get some good Mexican breakfast. I will need to go back to try their lunch menu. I also want to note this seems to be a family owned business with a lot of history and the staff all seem to work great together and I believe that is why they are also very successful and hope it stays that way. They are very welcoming. read more

Today, while getting our car serviced nearby, we walked to El Taquito for lunch. My wife had the 1/2 order of shredded beef tacos (2) with rice and beans and I had the Picadillo burrito (ground beef, onions, tomatoes and cheese). Both of our meals were delicious. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Our food was also delivered quickly. The restaurant is small, but nice. read more

Food was authentic Mexican and ingredients were fresh. Service was excellent too! Place is nothing fancy but food is so good.

This little hidden gem. I have driven past this place many times and never realized it was there. It's a small place but the attention you receive when you walk in the door makes it feel like family. The food is cooked to order so be patient but was worth every bite. You can customize options and the price point is affordable for small parties and families. Did I mention cooked and made fresh even the guacamole read more

El Taquito - Picadillo as a plate. Also some of those fresh made chips and Salsa. - Mexican Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Service was great! It was freezing cold in there so I had a bowl of soup with my meal to warm me up. It was a really light broth. Not too much flavor but it was good. I couldn't decide on what Flautas I wanted so I got a combo of the two popular versions. The one that isn't white was delicious. The white one is straight sour cream. It was good. The beans were delicious. I would return but the flautas weren't special but it was good food. read more

Shortly after I sat down at a table, Natalie approached and, with a cheerful voice and big smile, she greeted me. Having never seen the menu at El Taquito before, I had hoped to have enchiladas and was disappointed to learn that they do not have them. Natalie gave the suggestion of chilaquilles as a similar flavor option. I ordered them along with chips with guacamole (made to order) and salsa. Natalie cautioned me in the heat of the fresh out of the oil chips as she placed them and the guacamole and salsa on my table. Oh they were yum! Natalie checked on her customers regularly and made me feel at home without any rush to be done and leave. It was so refreshing. I enjoyed listening to music from the 80s in the background. Overall, I would recommend this place---especially if you can get Natalie as your waitress!!!! read more

This place never disappoints. It's repeatedly rated high by locals for very simple reasons: good service, great prices, homey ambiance, and deliciousfood. You won't get closer to Mexican homecooking than this place. The three of us had coffee, breakfast and their chips, salsa, guacamole appetizer for $39. I only wish that their location was easier to get to. It's a bit hidden behind a laundromat with a small parking area tucked away. Also, the salsa was so amazing but the initial portion was too small. We asked for seconds and thirds. This place has made it to our regular spot list. We'll be back I'm sure. read more

In El Paso for the week and decided to have lunch at El Taquito. In my humble opinion , some of the best food either comes from food trucks or small mom & pop restaurant's like El Taquito. There is absolutely nothing flashy or fancy about this restaurant but the food is most definitely on point, which is the main reason in going to a restaurant, right? I ordered the Verde plate, which consisted of shredded beef and potatoes is chile verde sauce. This plate also comes with rice, beans and your choice of flour or corn tortillas. PERFECTION ON A PLATE! This dish reminded me of a similar dish my Nana used to make! My server was amazing! She was friendly and attentive. My food was delivered to my table pretty quickly after I ordered and was piping hot. This restaurant is also VERY easy on the wallet. If you're in the El Paso area, make it a point to stop by El Taquito, you won't be disappointed. Two toes and two thumbs WAY up for this restaurant. Happy eating, my foodies! read more

Tried this El Paso Mexican restaurant. Very authentic and great food and service. It was crowded but service was fast.

This place was great! We're on a roadtrip so we stopped in for some food to go. We got there 5-10 minutes before they closed and they were so helpful and accommodating! I'm vegetarian and they helped describe everything that I could eat. I ended up getting vegetarian tacos and they were amazing. I'm a huge taco fan and I'd be happy eating the veggie tacos from el taquito everyday! Thanks for the great service and delicious food. read more

So I'm in for a few days and wanted to get some breakfast tacos. When I arrived I saw that the place was packed and only open till 3pm. I was thinking this can go one of 2 ways, either really good or really, really bad. My buddy and I decided to give it a try. The parking was totally packed, so we parked across the street. We walked it and didn't have to wait long. I ordered the Texicana and Barbacoa tacos, and my buddy ordered the Red plate. Service was great the waiter came around multiple times to check in us and was very attentive. All the food seemed to be made fresh. Guacamole and salsa were great!. Service 10 outa 10 great staff Texicana 8 outa 10 great tastes Barbacoa tacos 9 outa 10 great Guacamole and salsa 9 outa 10 fresh Red plate I didn't eat it, so I can't say The place is very homey.

Great Torta, Friendly service & priced friendly. Would love to eat more here, but only here for the day.

Its the best food ngl. The service is fine the waiters do a good job. Btw the Ambiance was good the place is clean and gives good vibes.

With so many Mexican restaurants in El Paso, we're so happy we chose this one! We ordered a potato, egg, chorizo, and avocado burrito breakfast burrito and a breakfast plate, and both were incredible. They both totally hit the spot. The breakfast plate came with a side of refried beans which I'm not usually a fan of, but theirs were surprisingly good and really added to the meal. The real standout was the mango smoothie it was to die for, especially on a hot day! It really is a must to complement the meal. The prices were also very reasonable, which made the experience even better. If you're conflicted on where to grab breakfast, this place is definitely worth it! read more
