As an update to my original review I need to correct the record as I realize now, after the fact,…read morethat this business does indeed make authentic Mexican street style tacos, where the ingredients are onions, cilantro, lime juice, and meat of your choice. The street tacos I ordered on this trip were very well-made where they have generous portions of meat in both the steak Asada and the El Pastor taco meal I ordered. The taste was a tad on the bland side for me however where some salt and salsa were required to pick up the flavor profile which I am sure is a function of keeping it to a neutral flavor profile to appeal to the masses and letting people season it to their personal taste. The El Pastor in particular, which is a marinated pork taco, had more of a subtle flavor from the marinade that did not jump out at you versus some of the better ones I have had. Having said that, they were still good authentic Mexican street style tacos. Overall, this restaurant is a great option If you are looking for better made Mexican food and are in this area.

I was in the mood for Mexican food (again) and I wanted to go somewhere I hadn't been before. I saw…read morethat El Mariachi wasn't too far from where I was at the time, and it got good reviews, so I decided to try it. The restaurant is fairly large, but they only had half of it open when I was there. The decor is bright, airy and friendly. I was only seated a minute when Eric brought out chips and salsa. Very good chips and salsa. Very dangerous chips and salsa! Lol! In my opinion, it seemed a little more upscale and expensive than other Mexican restaurants, but not overly so. They also offer a lot more than just your average tacos-burritos-enchiladas. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted; I changed my mind several times but finally settled on the small carnitas fajita salad, which is something I hadn't seen on a menu before. It was pretty big for a small salad; I couldn't even finish it. (Probably because of the aforementioned chips & salsa!) the meat was cooked nicely, and I liked the variety of vegetables in the salad. The tortilla shell was particularly good -- light, crispy and flaky, and not at all greasy like so many other shell bowls. I will definitely make a point to remembeer this restaurant, even though it is a bit far away from me.

Unbelievable, beyond disappointing. The corn chips are quite greasy, but crunchy. The guacamole isn't too bad. We asked for jalapeños to add to it, we got pickled jalapeños. I would have thought they would have loads of fresh jalapeños, given the type of cuisine here. The pickled jalapeño gives the guacamole a very different taste to it. Cheese everywhere. Ugh. All over the taquitos and the chicken tostada too. The chicken in the taquitos are hard as jerky. The rest of the chicken in the taquito is super dry. The bean salad is so-so, has overcooked peas in it, corn, bland beans, red pepper, tomatoes. The chicken fajita is okay, a tad dry, there's some tomatillo or salsa verde in the grilled chicken with the red pepper, green peppers and onions. The small pico that comes with the fajita has good heat, from the fresh jalapeños. The quesadillas have a ton of cheese, not a lot of chicken inside, looks like an after thought. Service was ok. Food was subpar. Nothing notable.

I got the chicken tacos and 8oz side of rice and beans. Their menu read confusing, as they didn't have prices on the different meats, and tacos ranged from $2.99-$3.99 so I wasn't even sure how much my tacos would come to. I also thought it was 8oz combined of rice & beans for like $2.99 but I believe it rang up as individual 8oz containers. My total for the plate (3 tacos) & sides came to ~$16 without a tip or drink. The chicken tacos were SO bland. I tried adding more lime, the grilled onions, radishes, both the red and green salsas, and even rice and beans but nothing could rescue the flat flavor of nothingness every time I bit into my tacos. My red salsa that came with my plate was genuinely lame, it had hints of Tabasco sauce? Like they were trying to make it so spicy without any actual depth or flavor. I expected more from this place. I did try my friends steak from his taco and it was a bit more flavorful, so perhaps I got the wrong meat. Their employees were very nice and service wasn't too long, restaurant clean but limited seating! I would only return here to try the California burrito. I can find similar prices and great quality elsewhere.

It has a very simple but inviting atmosphere. The food smells good right as you walk in. It's very welcoming. We were greeted fairly quickly by our waiter who asked us if we wanted drinks I went with a rainbow margarita as that looked interesting. The drinks took probably 5 to 8 minutes. They brought out the chips and salsa pretty quick. The drinks came out. The margarita was ok for me. There were too many flavors that just didn't seem to go together. I would've preferred a standard margarita. It was ok not bad, but I wouldn't order it again. We placed our order for food. I went with the combination, dinner number 13, taco burrito and Chalupa. And we got a side of rice and beans. My wife ordered the vegetable fajita although the waiter told us ahead of time that the food was going to take a while as they were busy. It seemed like it came out in 5-8 minutes. It was fast. Chips and salsa are always good so those were fine. They gave us a couple of different salsa options which were good. For my food. The beef taco was really good. That was probably my favorite part of the meal. The burrito was chicken and was pretty good. Chalupa was not what I thought it was going to be basically it's a thin tortilla with a bunch of toppings piled on top of it that you just basically eat off of it with a fork. You can't pick it up and hold it as it's too heavy and the tortilla sits in sauce and other sides that then make it fall apart. My wife said her vegetable fajita was pretty good as well. The beans and rice were very average, not much flavor. Overall, the meal was decent nothing great nothing terrible just good. We may come back sometime as it is a nice place, the ambience is nice and the staff was great. But the food was nothing special aside from the beef taco that was delicious.

Of course, they decided it wouldn't be. Whatever. So I order a Jumbo Margarita to go. $16 dollars. And I receive this. I literally shook my head and laughed. Had to go back in to double check that they got my order right. Yep. This is the "jumbo." I was going to check them out for food with my family and I'll pass. I'm embarrassed for them. I know life is expensive in 2026 but this is pretty insulting as a customer, I'll be honest. Positive news: the margarita is excellent.

I've been on a Mexican food kick lately, and I remembered reading about Taqueria La Casita. I was…read moreactually out in Livonia, heading to a diferent Mexican place, but when I got there, it not only looked closed, but it looked like it was mostly a carry-out place. So, I decided to drive all the way out here because I have learned that trying to satisfy a craving with something different than what I really want doesn't work. It was an odd time -- about 3:30 on a Saturday afternoon -- when I arrived. The place is small, but it is very cheerfully decorated. The server was very friendly and helpful. He brought a basket of homemade chips and salsa as I sat down. After looking at all the options, I decided to be boring and I got the taco salad. It was very good, but as I was eating, I remembered seeing fried ice cream on their menu. I asked if they had it & he said absolutely. So, I stopped eating my entree & took it (and the chips) home and had the fried ice cream. It was SOOO worth it. they really did lightly batter the ice cream and fry it. (Unlike many place that don't actually do that.) It was served in a slightly sweet, lightly cinnamoned tortilla and topped with some chocolate sauce, whipped cream and maraschino cherries. If I lived closer & it hadn't been so hot outside, I may have ordered another one to take home!

I, however, really want to return on any trips to this area that I take in the future because the food is that good. The chips are amazing on their own but the queso elevates them to land in my personal top 10 of all time. Entree dishes are of an even higher quality, and I'll imagine it's not going to be easy to go without them when I head back home. The restaurant's interior is stunning, too, striking me the second I walked in. The staff here are great, and apparently some of them have been working here for decades! Overall, El Nibble Nook is a stunning jewel among the ocean of places I've eaten at during my vacation here, and I cannot wait to bring friends and family here next time I'm in town again.

The supremo sauce tasted like something you'd find on pasta, not a burrito. I've never seen a margarita so tiny. The sangria did not taste like it was freshly made. The service here left much to be desired. I had good memories of going here as a kid but I was incredibly disappointed coming back as an adult. Maybe we're just spoiled by all of the authentic, tasty Mexican around us.
