The outdoor patio has a relaxed, chill ambiance, and the drinks are well made. The service was good, and the waiter was very attentive. I ordered the beef enchiladas with rice and beans, and you can tell the food is made fresh to order when it arrives. The chips and salsa served as appetizers were also fresh and flavorful.

Recently discovered as this business is right off the road surrounding a large logistics area. I got the Cubana this time. Very good size sandwich with all the fixing on it. Highly recommend getting the red and green sauce. Both have great flavor and spicy. Please not the parking for this place is in a high traffic area. Best to pull into the business lot or on the other side of the road. Just be safe crossing the road.

Located inside a small food court in the Saraga Market is some of the best Al Pastor street tacos…read moreI've had. I started with 4 of them. Soft corn tortillas, perfectly seasoned pork, onions and cilantro. Red sauce (hot) and green sauce work well as flavor boosters. I literally inhaled 4. So I also ordered 2 American Style (hard shell, sour cream, tomato and cheese), 1 ground beef and 1 asada. They also have Horchata so sure, give me a large. I may have ordered wrong because I got soft shell. No big deal, they were still really good. Not sure which style I like better. The Horchata was perfect, almost like a dessert, satisfying that sweet tooth I get with Mexican food. Total for 6 tacos and a large horchata was about $24. Not bad today for a freshly made meal.

This taqueria is located in the Saraga International Grocery Store (Hamilton Road Location)…read more I love, LOVE street tacos... so, this was an easy choice when I needed a post grocery shopping lunch. They do offer an Americanized version (lettuce, tomato, and sour cream) as well. The staff was so very kind, and patient as I was trying to decide what I wanted to order. I finally decided on Al Pastor and a beef tongue taco. While I have decided tongue is not for me, everything was so very good.... so very fresh. I will definitely enjoy another taco next time I am at this location.

It was difficult to spot the tiny bits of chorizo and I never tasted it. I could not detect the presence of cheese in appearance or taste. There were so few bits of pineapple that they did not matter. The refried beans were watery and tasteless. The rice was good. Service was great!

Shocked that I haven't already reviewed this; maybe I reviewed a previous incarnation here because…read moreI have been here several times over the years, and enjoyed it each time. It's just a bit far out of my way to get here often. Today I met Mike G. for Taco Tuesday, and it is a deal: $1.50 for ground beef or shredded chicken tacos, hard or soft tortillas, Mexican or American style toppings. I got three, two beef and one chicken, and was stuffed- without even eating many chips beforehand. Neither meat was heavily seasoned, but there are assorted sauces to add, or you can dip them in the standard salsa. My total bill, with a pop, was just under $9. $9! For a filling, semi-healthy lunch. The tacos are big, or what used to be standard sized, anyway, not the smaller street tacos you sometimes get. Amazing? Nah. But pretty good, and a heckuva deal. Service was great. Service and food have been very good on previous visits too, and I have no complaints. The usual huge menu of Mexican standards (which I forgot to take a picture of.) Plenty of parking, easy access, bright and lively inside.

I spend about $20 if I get a drink, two tacos, a tostada & chips + guacamole. Tacos are delicious & it's one of the few places you can get a tostada that is crunchy and flavorful. Service is really good I've also had the horchata and cucumber agua fresca, would recommend them both. My go-to is guacamole+chips, beef or chicken street style tacos and or the chicken tostada. They also have good queso and rice and beans. I have not had a bad thing honestly.

El Tacoriendo - Columbus, OH…read more The building looks like the kind of spot you'd second-guess after dark--like pulling up to a Linden carryout when the streetlights flicker--but trust me, If you judge a taco by the tortilla (and honestly, you should), this place is worth checking out. I tried four different tacos, all excellent: * Asada - Tender and smoky, almost buttery in a warm corn tortilla that stayed together the whole time. * Suadero - Melt-in-your-mouth tender, with a gentle richness that made it feel almost luxurious compared to the usual grilled beef. Not greasy, just satisfying. * Cecina - Salty and deeply savory, the kind of flavor you keep thinking about later. * Barbacoa - Soft and shredded, perfect for soaking up lime juice. Each taco was loaded with fresh cilantro, chopped onions, grilled onions, and cucumber slices. Pricing & Portions * Tacos run about $3.50 each. * Even after skipping lunch, two were plenty to fill me up. * Extra salsas are $0.50 each, and worth it. Salsas * Green salsa: Mild, fresh, and bright. * Red salsa: A little kick without being too spicy. * Both were great together, but the meat was seasoned well enough to eat plain. Atmosphere & Service * Bright painted chairs and colorful walls give it a casual, welcoming feel. * The dining room has plenty of space between tables and a laid-back vibe. * My takeout order was packed neatly in sturdy containers and ready in about 10 minutes. * Staff were friendly and patient when I had questions about the menu. ‍ Final Take If you're tired of tacos that taste mass-produced, this spot will feel like a small revelation. After a 4/4 win, I'm already planning to come back to try some of their more unique proteins (like lengua, buche, or tripe). Consider this your sign to give them a shot. 5/5 - Come hungry, leave happy, and maybe start debating what to order next before you even get back to your car.

Not much seating inside but they are never busy. We didn't get the customer oriented vibe when we came.

Regardless I would order takeout and come back to try another dish! Definitely a legit example of a hole in the wall. But good food!
