    Tacos de Barbacoa (shredded beef)
    Scotty G.

    I was visiting some family out of state when I stumbled across this market / taqueria...These tacos de barbacoa were some of the best tacos I've ever had .. perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection .. every element of this taco were bursting with flavor and love . I ordered 4 and smacked em down . Can't wait to come back to this spot when I'm in the Reno area again. Skip the fast food and check out these tacos !!!

    I've never not ordered a lot of food coming here + a pina juice. The price is right here. For less than $10, you can have a GINORMOUS burrito to either share or eat later. Their quesadillas are loaded with cheese, meats, and veggies if you want. I once lied to myself when I told my brother I didn't want anything from here while he was grabbing lunch.. next thing you know, I was eating half of my brother's steak quesadilla. Also, I orders nearly 30 tacos and my order took less than 30 minutes. This was impressive because I was not the only person in line and/or who just ordered food. Quick and flavorful. It's nice when restaurants make it easy.

    Asada Plate

    A few of us had a long day off-roading in the hills and stopped by this small market/ restaurant for a bite to eat. What a pleasant surprise. This small mom & pop place had some flavorful food which was prepared with love. The service made it feel like I was at home and the portions were perfect. I had the steak dish and it was delish. Make sure you order the salsas. They specialize in this and it rivals any I've ever had.

    This is a convenient spot to go for lunch if you are in the area. There is a restaurant inside of the store with a few tables but I always call and order to-go. They are always very accurate with their pick up time. If you decide to dine in, they will bring you your food! It is also nice to be able to shop around if you do happen to have some time to kill. Their food is tasty but it is a little on the pricey side. I ordered 6 tacos a la carte and while extremely tasty there wasn't very much meat on them and the total was a whopping $19! Despite the taste, for the amount of food I got it was unfortunately not worth it to me. I did notice after the fact that they have a taco plate that seems like a much better and worthwhile deal. I will be getting the 3 taco plate combo next time! The burritos are very filling and for a decent price of either $10 or $11 dollars depending on what type of meat you get.

    This place is incredible! We GrubHubbed for delivery and the driver must have knocked things around a bit hence the look on the pics but the taste- top notch! We ordered the pork tamale, Barbacoa tacos, side of rice, Elote on and off the cob, chicken burrito, chips and red salsa. Everything has so much flavor! The order didn't have the consumme but instead carne asada tacos. Both salsas are amazing- note the red is incredibly spicy and the green is incredibly mild. Will definitely be ordering again!!

    Cut a piece out and all masa (26. Pupusa Revuelta)
    Mel O.

    The "pupusas" were a flattened ball of masa with a weird sheer suggestion of sauce, Something chewy. Slightly sour. Idk what it was. This business shouldn't promote having salvidorian food if they can't make it. 60$ of masa. Save yourself the drive. They do however have yummy tamales.

    Asada Torta

    My wife and I drive by this place all the time so we decided to give it a shot and immediately regretted our decision. This plus two drinks came to $30. Lack of visual appeal aside the few pieces of carne asada just tasted nasty we didn't even finish our food.

    I love this place so fresh and the pupusas so good and fluffy masa and delicious cheese with pork, 10/10 Service they will offer you anything you need love it.

    Yummy but and super spicy shrimp ceviche.
    Leanh E.

    When I am in the Stead area and I want some homemade good Mexican food, this is my place. During Covid, they have take out. If you are ordering pupusa, you may want to call in advance, because it takes 15 minutes to make. I had my usual carne asada tacos and a Cabasa pupusa that was yummy. I love their green and red homemade salsa. The red is hot and your mouth will be on fuego in the best way possible. Clean store, where I also pick up fresh green and red salsa and homemade tamales. I really like the jalapeño and cheese and my family loves the red pork. The chicken are good for those that do not like spicy, but all the tamales were perfecto!

Los Gallos covered those two needs perfectly. Located on the main ave across from Circus Circus. Kinda cool pawn shops too but didn't have time to check them out. Walking in, it def has the authentic dinginess that is usually synonymous with authentic tasting food. Lots of handmade signs and pictures of food on the walls. And also lots of pictures from their hometown. It was a Monday afternoon and there were many local Mexican families eating there which is another great sign. Ordering was pretty easy. After doing me best To order in Spanish I realized the lady working there spoke perfect English. Haha. I ordered a shrimp burrito with everything and 3 street tacos all to go. It took a long time for the food to come out. There was a large party order that they were getting ready so I waited a long time. It was so long that I expected them to offer me a free coffee or soda but they didn't. The food finally came and it was a solid 4. The shrimp burrito was tasty and the shrimp was cooked really well. The tacos were good too. I'll def be back next time I'm in Reno.

The tortillas and chips were so good! I'm so bummed that I live out of town otherwise I would come regularly. We came on a Sunday, it was busy- so we needed to wait for a table, only took about 5 to 10 minutes or so to be seated. The service was prompt once we were sat, the staff have really good teamwork. They have a parking lot so it wasn't difficult to find parking and the interior was spacious and clean considering how busy it was. My man ordered an asada burrito and I got the birria combo. I tried a bite of his burrito and I liked that it wasn't extremely salty like a lot of places we've been to. My birria was extremely flavorful, the rice was perfectly fluffy and the beans were on point- I don't usually finish my beans because I'm not a huge fan, but I finished these beans, that's how good they were. They also gave us complementary chips and salsa. The chips were nice, thick and fresh and the salsa wasn't too spicy so everyone is able to enjoy it. 10/10 on the food! We will definitely be back next time we're in town, hopefully it'll be just as good next time.

    Given that we are from Jalisco we wanted to try out this location and let me tell you…read more... From the first bite, it's clear this place takes tortas ahogadas seriously. The bread arrives with that perfect crusty exterior and airy interior that holds up beautifully once it's "drowned" in the vibrant, slightly spicy tomato-chile sauce. The pork inside is tender and flavorful, and the balance of acidity, heat, and richness feels fresh rather than heavy. It tastes remarkably close to what you'd find in Jalisco, which makes it feel genuinely authentic rather than a watered-down version for tourists. We also got tacos dorados de papa and those were pretty amazing too. The micheladas and chavelas are just as impressive. They're crisp, well-seasoned, and perfectly chilled, with just the right amount of lime, spice, and salt on the rim. They pair incredibly well with the tortas and make the whole meal feel even more special. On top of the food and drinks, the service really elevates the experience. The staff is attentive, friendly, and clearly proud of what they serve, checking in just enough without hovering. Overall, it's a spot that delivers on flavor, authenticity, and hospitality, making it a standout choice for anyone craving great Mexican comfort food. Will definitely be coming back.

Positively delicious. The sauce might be thin but I ended up using a spoon to slurp up every last bit of sauce after the Rellano was finished. So I was NOT at all disappointed in the Rellano. In fact, because I was still hungry I had room for their homemade Flan. I asked for extra sauce if possible. I was very pleased. There are many varieties of flan. I personally prefer a more textured variety that I refer to as Rustic. I would call this variety a very traditional SMOOTH variety. The flavor is wonderful. It was delicious. And NOW I am full and satisfied. This restaurant is at the end of the shopping center. Parking is great. If you find this review helpful please VOTE!
