A very fun dining experience. It's all about Tacos and some other intriguing south of the border dishes. The exterior and interior are entertaining with cunning and funny art work. This is an order at the counter and you get the little number buzzer. There is a separate counter only for order on line and pick up. Seems to very organized. My sponsor ordered Flautas Pollo. I ordered Burrito Chile Relleno. Unlike most Tex Mex restaurants, you order chips and salsa separately, it does not come complimentary. On the other side, they have a self serve salsa bar. The flavors are unique and I guess authentic, again not Tex Mex. The salsa we ordered was mild. The one salsa we sampled from the open Salsa Bar was too hot for our ability to devour. Would like to return and try a couple more dishes. read more

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! read more

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. read more

Everything we tried tasted SOOO good, definitely will return. Easy one of my go-tos. Great portions. Ambiance is chill. Service was great. Going to continue to return! Elotes - nice kick of spice. Fresh corn. Piping hot when it comes out. Yummy. Panadillas- I cant stop thinking about how good this was. Dipped with the spicy green sauce is chefs kiss. The pita bread makes all the difference and the fajita beef used was not chewy! I would probably ask for xtra cheese next time since I like more cheese. Beef nachos - great portion to share. The cheese used for the nachos was good. We also tried, beef burritos, beef tortas, hortachas, and alambres, churros were also all so good. read more

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 ! read more

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. read more

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. read more

Guanataco Arlington - Chilaquiles - Tacos Near Me - Arlington, Texas

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. read more

Your order of 20 tacos are the best! I'd eat it everyday if I could lol! Truly juicy, thoroughly cooked, and best paired with their horchata!! They've got amazing service! The best ambiance when waiting for your food or for a quick in-restaurant bite!! read more

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. read more

Guanataco Arlington - Taco special - Tacos Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Checked out after seeing IG hype, was excited to try but food just wasn't good. The meat quality was poor and everything was super greasy with barely any flavor. The carnitas looked like mush and had no flavor. The birria had an okay flavor but the tortilla was tough from not being cooked entirely . The al pastor was a greasy mess -- poor flavor and didn't look like it came off a trompo. Even the cooked onions tasted old. Got an horchata that didn't even look right in color but wanted to give it a chance and just as it looked- it was super watered down. Cashier was kind, place was clean, but honestly the food is not worth the hype or the money. Restaurant is definitely beautiful and clean but again food is 0/5. read more

Best taco ever. I had siadero, cabeza, tripa...very delicious. Definitely come try it out..

The food was fresh and flavorful. It was great to find different meats and entrees that you don't find at every taco shop. I also love that it isn't Tex-Mex. Their customer service was welcoming and the restaurant was clean. We will be back very soon. read more

What a diamond in the rough! My very white 84-year-old mother found this place, and I am so glad she did! She had the taco plate, and I had the cheese enchilada plate; both were home runs! The lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. You can't beat the margaritas for five dollars during happy hour. We will return!! read more

We had ordered on doordash the nachos and the burrito. The nacho cheese came on the side and it was surprisingly cold. I expect it to be warm bc i mean its cheese for the nachos. The burrito was also warm but not warm as youd expect it. Maybe it was because we ordered delivery but it wasn't as good as I thought it'd be. read more

If you're looking for an authentic mexican restaurant this aint it, you're better off going to taco bell.. Everything tasted horrible from the watered down no flavor "agua de limon" to their bland and CHEWY meats, not to mention the tortillas were undercooked and even the cilantro tasted bad!! Shame I came in excited because everyone was raving about this place and left so disappointed didn't even finish a taco. read more

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