    Grilled Chicken Quesadilla
    Quinn H.

    Stopped here for a late lunch during the week and it was great! Quick service, clean restaurant, and tasty food!

    Ordered the 5 rolled tacos, shredded beef. They came out freshly cooked so I enjoyed how crispy they were fresh out of the fryer! The cheese melted on top to perfection. Cashier was helpful in local fave recommendation.

    Disgusting "chicken" tacos. Went straight in the trash
    Amy M.

    Food is disgusting!! Apparently I mistakenly ordered chicken tacos for delivery. Blegh!! Tastes, smells and looks like rotten Tuna Fish. Ordered flan. Also gross. It's like they poured maple syrup over a small thin custard. Even the horchata tastes like it comes from a box. Order somewhere else!

    Excellent! Delicious! Clean! Great Service! The tortillas and meat were nice and hot; had to wait a second to let them cool which is great because I love a hot meal!! Delicious tortillas. It's like corn and flour tortillas has a perfect baby. Flavorful Tender Meat Clean Store Fresh Limes Great Prices I got two Marinated Pork Tacos for under $5 on Tuesday. They were the perfect amount of flavor and spice and quantity of food. Comes with some chips to help clean up your plate at the end. One of the best taco spots in Phoenix! Oh! Also they label their salsa so you know if it's mild, medium, or spicy! This is the first taco place I've seen do that! Love their attention to detail.

    Great food and a lot of it for the money. They are very friendly and the restaurant is clean. Fully stocked salsa bar is a plus, worth dropping in

    Carne Asada Burrito insides
    Victoria P.

    Before I post my review, I have to say my Door Dash delivery took about an hour, and our food was cold. I want to try it again, maybe dine in. I was especially excited that they had potato rolled tacos. However, the fact that they were cold made them not appetizing. I scraped off the sour cream and heated in the microwave for a minute. Still blah. The ends of the taco were hard and the middle too soft. The potatoes themselves had very little flavor. I was really disappointed. With taco in your name, you have to have good tacos. Hubby liked the carne asada burrito the tortilla looked authentic hand made. We ordered a side of beans and a side of rice to split. Great portions. We had plenty each. The churro made this review an extra star over what I would have given it. It had a yummy gooey sauce, pudding like texture in the middle. It was tasty even cold. I will give it another shot and come back and review again.

    shrimp salad to-go
    Beth C.

    This is a nice, small shop with a great variety on their menu. Though the tacos looked excellent, I ordered a shrimp salad to-go. It was ready in about ten minutes. I was really impressed by the large size and the generosity of the toppings. They didn't skimp on cheese (yay!), the greens and avocado were delicious and fresh, and the shrimp were perfect. The dressing is kind of like ranch but had the texture and taste like Parmesan was mixed in, so I'm left wondering if it was made there; in any case, it was quite good. I'd come here again if I was in the area!

    Came here for our Friday lunch date a couple of weeks ago (but forgot to write a review)…read more We had a couple of their tacos (I had the Al Pastor as it was only available on a Wednesday ‍ and the wife had the Costra taco and it was all pretty good. Great flavors. We shared their Flamingo (crispy rolled flour tacos stuffed with cheese blend and roasted anaheim pepper, topped with lettuce, sour cream, avocado salsa, pico de gallo and cotija cheese) - VERY GOOD! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! We both had the Modelo Especial with lunch as well, as you gotta do it right! Service was quick as it wasn't that busy when we arrived and were seated - but it got busy not long after.. You can see its a popular place and right in the heart of Tempe so no surprises! It's not a noisy place but far, and quite open, so its pretty average for noise. We will be back - as there are some great foodie places around in Tempe, and Taco Chelo is definitely one of them!

First of all, eating anywhere in Tempe, starts with a frustrating time.... Trying to find parking and having to pay to park. I don't understand why restaurants don't have parking for customers. Idk maybe I don't know where to look. Second, it's hot AF in here. I feel sorry for the guys cooking. It's 105 today and the restaurant is so small, it's probably impossible to keep cool during the summer. Finally, the food. It all tastes very fresh! NO SEED OILS is amazing. I feel like I have won something when I find a restaurant that uses olive oil and beef tallow to cook in. Best corn tortillas I have had for sure. We basically tried one of each taco. (Although some of the tacos we ordered were wrong, so we just kept adding) not a big deal, because they were delicious and we loved them. I felt like the carne was chewy but my husband loves chewier meat. The taco with the marlin was my favorite. And the one that came out kind of like a cheese crisp. It's loud in here and again the space is very small. They do not serve wine at all. But yummy margaritas! The bartender is working solo and working hard! She busted her butt and did an amazing job. And smiled the entire time. She was awesome

It's quaint, never a wait, and it has become our family go-to. We always have wonderful service and great meals with freshly prepared ingredients. The shrimp dishes are incredible, remnant of Puerto Peñasco with shrimp that "pops" (if you know good shrimp, you know what I mean!) They have Negra Modelo on draught (hard to find that!), and their margaritas are delish. You can't go wrong with chimichangas or combo platters! They have moles on the menu but we typically opt for more traditional Sonoran style. If you are on the search for amazing traditional Mexican food in South Tempe - you found your spot!

Their ceviche was good but I don't recommend eating it with the tostadas they serve it with. It was better with their table chips. The price doesn't justify the portion of it. The serving was very small and you should honestly be getting more than that. The burritos were sadly not memorable. How can you mess up a burrito?! It wasn't very busy either to have an inattentive waiter either. I don't know if it was maybe an off day to come in? But I won't be returning.

The meats are so good. We also use to love the sushi side. During Covid, we tried the sushi for the first time. We were hesitant as it's a Mexican joint, right? Not a Japanese specialty shop. So to my surprise, I couldn't believe the sushi especially the Las Vegas roll and their Nigiri cuts were pretty dang good. My disappointment seems to be this last year with the sushi just hasn't been the best or fresh tasting. The Las Vegas roll was always nice and warm but with an awesome cold center and fried to perfection and the sauce just right. Lately it's been the opposite. Super over fried were all you can taste is old burnt oil and it dried out and the sauce just bland and not helping at all. The other thing that bothers us is the lack of wasabi they give! If you're not going to give us full flavor, at least give more wasabi to help mask. I will say they give you plenty of soy sauce packets (just barely any wasabi).
