    I was on the trail and the time was already 5pm so I looked for tacos and they were the closest from the trail, and their review was really high so I decided to give it a try. When I walked in it's already packed which was a good sign, and luckily there was one table available and I sat there. I ordered Jamaica and 4 asada tacos, and I got all the condiments while they cook. Onions, limes, cucumbers, cilantros, and 3 kinds of salsas. As soon as I got tacos, I put asada on my tortilla, as well as cilantro, onion and salsa. I poured the red salsa A LOT on my first tacos and omg, soooo good! The asada was juicy and tender, full of umami to it! Then all the sudden, the red salsa kicked in, and I could not stop breathing weird and drinking Jamaica! Because I was soo in trouble with the hotness the ladies laughed at me and say "drink more water!" and I was like "I'm trying!" I tried all the other salsas but I still added a little bit of the red salsa on all the tacos so at the end, I was almost crying because of it, it was too hot and good! I couldn't stop because everything was too good. I will definitely come back soon.

    I enjoyed these tacos fairly inexpensive. Menu has gone through some changes so check it out. Everyday the tacos are buy one get one free only on the order of tacos. Excludes the cambo of soda, and backed potatoes. Ask before you order because it is only certain meats for the offer. Tripitas are new and you can have them made to your liking. I liked that the salsa bar includes cebollitas that are marinaded. You can decide whether your tacos have cheese or not. Place is fairly clean and the service is fairly quick. It is a busy place I must say finding parking can be tricky. I will definitely return.

    Good service, clean and great value for your buck! 3 starts because I was expecting more flavor in the meat. They could be better seasoned!

    This place is a gem! You can tell the food was AMAZING by noticing I had no desire to take pictures of the food. This happens because after having one bite of their tacos al pastor, I had no desire to pull out my phone. This place is small, a bit dingy, and very run down. This is not a place you go to critique the ambiance, building or decor. My brother in law recommended this place to us for fast and cheap tacos. It is located in central El Paso, but completely worth an hour and a half drive. The menu is small but that is all you need. IF you sit down to eat they will give you FREE aguas frescas (lemonade or jamaica). They have spectacular salsas for every palate. I will DEFINITELY recommend this place to any one who wants to taste mouth watering fresh street tacos.

    This is what you get for $9

    Not much of a fan , when it come down to it the flavor is okay and the portions are small for the price , i hope they can improve with time . Also customer service wasn't the best not the friendliest of people that work there

    So delicious! Tacos Alambres and Al Pastor at Tragones on Piedras.

    We were looking for an inexpensive late lunch and Taqueria Guadalajara was closed. So I looked up reviews on Yelp and found Los Tragones. They have an advertised special; street tacos for two people, 4 tacos each, for 6.99. One can choose Alambré (which is beef cooked with bacon, bell pepper, onion)or Al Pastor (which is pork, slow cooked on a rotating spit.) The waitress was nice enough to let us try a half and half order and we split a baked potato, which came with a huge gob of margarine (yuck,) which we immediately discarded, replaced with some fiery aguacate salsa and a good dose of cilantro. The potatoes with the green sauce were sooo delicious! The taco meat was perfectly seasoned and I liked the flavor of the medium red chili sauce that I chose. I also added some chopped Cucumber, onions that had been pickled in lime juice with oregano and dried Chile, and more cilantro. The crunch and freshness of the cucumber was an especially nice contrast to the slightly greasy and salty goodness of the Al Pastor. For under ten dollars you would be hard pressed to find a more delicious meal for two people. I ate a little bit too much! We will definitely be repeat customers!

    It's okay, but the quality has gone down. Maybe it was a one off? I'll still give it a chance when I come visit again.

    Bomb tacos and free drinks when you eat there!! Parking is hard to find and they also only take cash but totally worth it.

    El Taquito - Flautas- excellent!

    Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's…read morewhat 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.

    Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice…read more 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!

    I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

    Heard this place was good. I get there and am seated immediately. The waitress brought drinks…read morequickly and took my order. The combo plate sounded good. I ordered that and got a ton of food. The serving was huge. Everything looked fresh. When I finished, man, was i full. Everything on that plate was excellent. Good flavor. The place was clean and the people were nice. I only had one day but when i come back in town , I would eat here again.
