These tacos were outstanding. The staff was absolutely wonderful and so helpful recommending some of her favorites and they did not disappoint!
We love visiting authentic Mexican restaurants across the state. This was beyond disappointing. Service was beyond slow. Food came out at random increments and we had to ask when two in our party never received their food. Then we were told that they were out of chicken. One person switched theirs to another meat choice, but it seemed their plate of rice and beans had been sitting so long it was ice cold and they mentioned the taste of the beans was rancid and couldn't eat them. While the crispy tacos in the photo look good, there was an odd mustard sauce that ruined the entire plate.
Finally had some decent Mexican food in North Carolina. These events are few and far between. I don't mean to rag on anyone's food preferences, but I just cannot adapt to the queso cheese dip being used to smother everything from arroz con pollo to enchiladas, quesadillas and burritos in this state. Mi Taqueria did not do that. I had such a delicious lunch. The customer service was excellent. I ordered off the lunch menu and got the enchilada and taco plate, hold the beans and rice because I don't eat as much for lunch these days. I chose shredded chicken for the filling meat, out of several choices (steak, grilled chicken, pulled pork, shredded chicken, etc) This meal could easily fill a hungry man for lunch if rice or beans was added, and don't forget the complimentary chips and salsa. Two salsas in squirt tubes also brought to the table (red and green hot sauce). The salsa with chips was very, very mild. Almost like just tomato sauce but this is fine. Not everyone can do spice. I enjoyed the green salsa which was also mildly spicy and flavorful. I arrived just after the lunch crowd so it was empty when I ate but pretty full when I arrived at 1pm. All in all, a perfect Friday lunch on a hot September day.
Great tacos! Just moved here from Arizona and had been looking for a great Mexican restaurant. We found it in Mi Taqueria thanks to a random Reddit post from the owners in law. Glad I followed their recommendation. We tried chorizo and carne asada tacos. The food is cheap for the portions and the quality of the food is extremely good. The salsas are great as well! Definitely worth the drive to eat here.
I seem to be making a habit out of following my fellow Yelpers around to the various unknown and underrated taquerias in town, and Mi Taqueria is no exception. The food here is some of the best and most authentic Mexican cuisine in the area, the prices are very reasonable, and the service could not be more efficient and kind. We'll start with the look and feel. This area of High Point has seen better days, there is no question about that, but thankfully the food here has not. From the outside this place is not much to look at, but the inside is clean and open. The bar is quite nice actually. Tables and seating are simple, but serve their purpose. My friends and I came in and chose a seat by the windows. We were greeted immediately and ordered drinks. There is no sweet tea here, and sodas are sold by the can, but there is a great variety of fresh fruit drinks available as well. Chips are thick, crunchy, and warm. The salsa served with it is deliciously tangy. But wait... you'll get 5 more bottles of various sauces and salsas once you order! Both green varietals are excellent, watch out for the reds! A couple of them will burn your mouth out if you aren't ready... so be sure to taste test a little drop. Speaking of burn your mouth out, every meal seems to come with a delicious grilled and salted jalapeno pepper. Mine tasted very mild and had great flavor, my wife's had had more time on the vine, and i mistakenly took a big bite... and was almost crying. Tread carefully, but definitely enjoy it, they really do it right. I ordered Gorditas con Barbacoa, because that is my favorite meat/style, and they were just tops. The puffy tortillas had a wonderful consistency, like a slightly firmer tamal. Each of them were overstuffed with meat, queso fresco, sour cream, pico, and lettuce. Wonderful dish. My friends each ordered burritos of different types. They were absolutely monsterous in size, and swimming in some of the best queso I have ever tasted. The taste on everything was well above average, and you had a variety of salsas to mix and match. Overall, we loved our experience here, and will definitely be back. I encourage anyone in the area to make a small trip out this direction and support these wonderful people and their awesome food.
This place is a classic hole-in-the-wall - it is worn and shabby on the outside, with a small parking area that may well require you to back out into Green Street when you are ready to leave. Inside, it is very simply furnished - a small bar area, a few booths against the left wall, and a series of dated tables with straight back chairs occupying the right side of the restaurant, the spacing is such that there is a very open feeling to that area, and to the restaurant as a whole, for that matter. But, it is the food that draws you here, and it will be the food, and the service, that almost assuredly bring you back. The tacos are excellent, and substantial with their double corn tortilla construction - these bad boys do not fall apart - and there is a lot of filling. I tried the Asada, Chorizo, Carnitas, and Barbacoa tacos, and they were as good as any of the street tacos I've tried, with the possible exception of those made by Taqueria El Azteca. We also tried the Carnitas Dinner with Rice & Beans, and the Chile Verde, also with Rice & Beans. These proved to be as good as the tacos, and the carnitas were especially tender and full of flavor. The beans were tasty, though the rice was a touch bland, but that just picking a nit. The salsa and chips here are solid, as well. The service was friendly, efficient, and attentive. We'll be back - might even catch Michael P there some day. They open at 10AM if you like an early start.
This hole in the wall delivered an amazing food experience! $7.99 Not knowing when I would be back, I opted to try the tacos as it would allow me to try several different meats. All the tacos were loaded with cilantro! They were very bare bones, making the meat the main attraction. They provided at least one lime wedge for each taco which i loved! I tend to always ask for more limes. 1. lengua- This is tongue. I never tried tongue until that day! It was extremely tender. It tasted like beef but didn't have much flavor to it. So overall, tongue wasn't bad but not much seasoning happening here. 2. barbacoa- I didn't know what to expect here because sometimes barbacoa is beef and sometimes it is lamb. I believe this was a shredded chopped beef. It was flavorful, but the assortment of sauces they provide really added some brightness and zest to this taco. 3. campechanos- This is bacon and steak. The flavor of the bacon was overwhelming. I'm not saying that is a bad thing. The cilantro and hot sauces balanced out the fat in the meat. 4. steak with chorizo- the chorizo made this taco salty and delicious. I can't decide if this one or the campechanos was my favorite. I definitely enjoyed trying all the different meats and hot sauces. The chips and salsa provided with the meal were also delicious. Each plate came with it's own roasted and seasoned jalepenos. I enjoyed ripping it apart and putting a slice on each taco. It really added something spicey and fresh. I can't wait to go back and try the marinated pork! I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

This place holds a special place in my heart! Not because I come here often, as until a couple of days ago I'd never stepped foot in here. It's because the owner, Jorge, and his brother are architects of this wonderful version of authentic Mexican food! I knew Jorge from his days of building THE best taco shop in all of the Triad. For those who know and love El Rancho Taqueria in Winston, their success is due solely to Jorge. After missing him for 3-4 years, our paths unexpectedly cross again at Mi Taqueria! The tacos here are as wonderful as they've ever been! The sopes are as authentic and flavorful as they've ever been! What makes his food so good is solely due to his meats and how he marinates them. The obvious passion and love he has for sharing his food with his customers comes forth in his consistency of the food quality! I was so anxious to dive into my sopes that I forgot to take pics for this review. No fear, I'll post some soon on my return visits! read more

Looking for a taco spot near the area , came across this hidden gem. So happy I did , as other reviewers say tacos here are tasteful. I do have to point out I was a little skeptical about the area as it was hidden away between warehouses and abandon buildings but I'm so glad I walked in. The owner and the waitress were very friendly and welcoming and atmosphere was clean and calm. Food was prepared and served almost immediately, the variety of sauces was a delight. Can't beat the price for the amount of food you get. I definitely recommend this to anyone trying to find a taco spot , granted they have several different meal options! read more
Not super crowded for lunch, seemed like a lot of regulars. Nice laid back place. Attentive, friendly service. Had Chile Verde dinner, was great. I also appreciated that they did not inundate me with chips, just small basket, plenty to enjoy their fresh, awesome salsa. Would definitely come back on my next trip to High Point! read more

Awesome and great price. Definitely authentic and delicious! Wonderful dining experience- neighborhood is sketchy but worth the visit! read more
If you dont care about the location or how the restaurant itself looked or felt this is an ideal place to grab some tasty tacos . This place had some solid reviews and I decided to give it a try , we got Horchata for drinks and 2 different kinds of tacos . Our flour tortillas were perfect sized and double layered and filling was over flowing . Chicken was beautifully cooked and I was full just having 2 tacos . Fried tacos were also great but not so much the rice and beans . All the condiments and sauces were great and our server checked on us multiple times . I am so going back here for some amazing tacos . read more

This little jewel is off the beaten path just a little bit, but it is well worth a visit for some outstanding authentic Mexican food. I visited here for the first time a few weeks ago and have been back once a week every since, Mi Taqueria will definitely be a regular stop since it's only about 15 minutes from my office. The dining room is pretty simple with a few booths along one wall and a few tables and chairs covering the rest, they do have a bar with a few bar stools also. The staff here is just great, everyone I've encountered has been super friendly and extremely helpful, Jorge the owner is one of the nicest folks you'll ever meet and he definitely cares about his customers and the food he's cookin'. The food is fantastic, I've had a few varieties of their tacos and sopes (so far) and they are all wonderful. Each taco is built on 2 small corn tortillas with your meat option topped with cilantro and onions served with radish slices and lime wedges, if you get your order to-go you get a small cup of their homemade red and green sauces, but if you dine in they bring a bucket to the table that has 2 different red sauces, 2 different green sauces and an orange one that is a sweet habenero sauce that has some good heat, they are all great on the tacos. The carnitas, al pastor and barbacoa are all outstanding to say the least, they do 2 styles of chicken, one is chunks of grilled chicken and the other is shredded chicken that's been slow cooked with onions and peppers, shredded is the way to go if you get chicken no doubt. Just go here as fast as you can if you want some awesome real deal Mexican food, you won't be disappointed. read more

This place is outstanding! A real gem out here. Very authentic and yummy flavor. The waitress was very nice. Chips were solid and the salsa was good. The chicken "tacos Dorado" was some of the best I have had. Flavorful chicken with fresh crispy lettuce and cheese. Just awesome. The red enchiladas were also great but just not hot enough. But still yum. My friend had the chicken flauta's and they were fantastic. Highly Recommend read more

So my boss stared going here because it's right up the street from our warehouse. One day she offered to buy me lunch from here and that was the beginning of something new for me! This place gives you a very reasonable amount of food for the money. The dipping sauce is pretty spicy but in a good way. Very good quality of food. Does not taste processed or cheap. Awesome place right down the street from the heart of High Point! read more

What a little gem! I have been searching for authentic Mexican food since we relocated from the west coast in 2016. I am thrilled to say we have finally found it! Perfectly simmered pork in the Chile verde, the corn tortillas taste fresh, not stale or store bought. I'm a huge fan of heat, and let me tell you how happy I was to find a perfectly grilled jalapeño on my plate (it didn't last long). A bucket of salsas were brought to our table (ranging from mild to burn your face off). Such a treat! Though I'll admit we stumbled upon this hole in the wall, I can assure you this will be my new go-to when I want authentic Mexican food. read more
Wow! So we stumbled upon this hole in the wall restaurant that is right outside of downtown. Everything was fresh and so mouth watering. So happy we attempted the unknown! Best Mexican restaurant we have been to in high point! The wait staff was average for lunch on a Wednesday. read more
