    Idk what from the last time i went. But the quality really downgraded. I spoke highly of it to someone and it was a failure. The birria barbacoa flavor made me throw up after at work.

    We met up with my cousin here after seeing all the rave reviews -- and wow, everyone was right. We rolled in around 7:40pm on a Sunday and the place was packed. It's first-come, first-serve, so we scoped out a table and only waited about 10 minutes. Not bad for a busy night. We ordered two taco plates: one carnitas, one bistec. Both were absolutely killer -- solid 5/5. I also appreciate that they use grilled onions instead of the raw, tear-inducing kind. Bless them for that. We added rice and charro beans on the side, and those were tasty too -- an easy 4/5. Bottom line: delicious food, great vibe, and we're already planning our next visit!

    Place has good vibes, food, and staff. This is my first review ever. Glad it was this place

    Try the churros!

    Came for game night and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend the Alambres Especial and churro chasers.

    TACO PLATE (Pollo and Bistec)
    Brittany R.

    Listen! When I say these tacos hit the spot, I MEAN IT ! Out of all my taco-eating adventures in the DFW metroplex, no one has seasoned and perfected an entire taco plate like this spot. The onions? Grilled and seasoned just right--not hard, not mushy, not half-done. Perfect texture and flavor. The meat? Downright delicious--juicy, tender, flavorful, and in generous portions that had me savoring every bite. And let's talk about the drinks! They let me remix the fresh watermelon agua fresca with lemonade (at no extra charge, unlike some other local spots ). The result? Absolute perfection--refreshing, balanced, and the perfect sidekick to my tacos. Honestly, when your food is this good, there's no need to nickel-and-dime customers--the flavors speak for themselves. The best part? I've already been back for round two before even posting this review. So yeah... you know it's real.

    Took my daughter for taco and she rated them a 4/5. Service was pretty quick for the amount of people inside. Went around 3 on Saturday so it was busy. We didn't like our drinks but that's ok. The tacos were very good and have a great amount of meat on each. I also liked the salsa bar with the different spice levels.

    Cute decor

    Absolutely delicious, staff was very friendly and attentive to our needs , you come you order and you eat , you also pick up your food , self serve salsa station, you clean up after yourself. They have tacos special 10 tacos for $23.99 I believe , and 20 for $46 something like that lol they also have delicious tortas , chilaquiles , menudo on the weekends and don't forget they have cold beer, also aguas frescas like horchata and Jamaica (hibiscus) ! Absolutely enjoyed it .. I'll be back lol Lots of parking , seating can get crowded .. but it's tacos , they don't take long to eat !

    Very good taco spot!! Love the atmosphere. Affordable cost. Got Elotes ( corn in a cup ) and also the ceviche sooo yummy! I also got a strawberry Margarita a good size for the price. The employees were very kind and helpful. I will definitely be back.

    Gorditas and chilaquiles

    We forgot that Guantaco opened up closer to us so we popped in for a last minute dinner decision. This new space is located near the bowling alley and is pretty spacious with plenty of seating. Staff handles the orders quickly. They kept their signature salsa bar and the variety on their menu. Prices are also reasonable for their dishes with the larger dishes being a bit pricier but still worth the portions. Gorditas tasted just as good as I remembered and were super filling! The chilaquiles was a good size that we had to take the rest to go as well as the 10 taco combo since the tacos were filled too! Love that they opened a location nearby and have kept up with the same quality and pricing as the original location.

    Chips and Queso

    Service was really great and helpful. Decor inside the restaurant is really cool and vibrant. So far I've tried queso Barria and fries is really good, the Al pastor is ok. Their sauce bar is very clean, sauce is so fresh and well made.

    Menu

    I've heard good reviews about it on IG & read the reviews on Yelp before going to the restaurant. Everyone online said it was super good. We walked in & the atmosphere was chill. They have a big menu we didn't really know what to get so we got tacos & nachos for appetizer. The nachos were 1/10. The cheese wasn't even good. It had a lot of beans & the chips were bland. I got the salsas which they have a lot of options & the salsas were 10/10! Pretty good. The only thing is that they need to work on adding more flavor to their meats. The fajita & chicken didn't have sazón. It didn't taste good. The barbacoa was okay but not great. They need to make sure to cook the tortilla well... it literally tasted like the heated up the tortilla in the microwave, at least add a little bit of oil or heat it up correctly. The taco plate does come with rice & beans together in one container whenever I picked up my food I asked the lady if she could put them separately & she kindly did. I ended up trying the chocoflan which was 10/10 tbh, it better be for almost being $7 a slice. Overall, they hype this place too much I don't think I would come back to try something different.

    Can you say super fresh!!

    Ok so had time to stop by for breakfast. I was going to have some breakfast tacos,,, but I asked Do you have Huevos Rancheros?? And they said YES!!! So two eggs over easy, potatoes, beans and two pieces of bacon,,, yum Sorry ate it, no pictures And bottle of coke. Give it a try

    Amazing service and very quick getting our food out! LOVE the pastor tacos!! We came from fort worth and this place does not disappoint! Also love the ambience, so pretty and good music.

    The food is pretty good especially the sopes and chilaquiles. Watermelon water is bomb, fresh. I definitely recommend coming here.

Our niece can to visit for a day and she agreed to join us to eat even though she says where she lives there is tons of Mexican restaurants. She was so impressed with the food, saying it the best Tex-Mex she's had. The place is fairly small with a separate bar area so the atmosphere is very easy to relax and talk while eating plus visit. Check this lace out, guaranteed you won't be disappointed!

    This Mexican hole in the wall appears tiny from the outside. The parking lot in this mini-mall was…read moresmall, but I didn't have any trouble finding a spot. The restaurant reveals itself to be larger once you're inside. It's a cozy dining experience and I liked the cluttered decor of Mexican tchotchkes and liquor bottles. The owners were very kind to reserve tables for our large group and arrange for us all to pay separately. I tried the cheese enchiladas and they were very filling - they came with Spanish rice and refried beans on the side. I was tempted by the taco salad... some fellow diners ordered it and they were serving size was enormous! Most dishes here seemed well suited to having enough leftovers for the next day.
