    Potato Egg Bean and Bacon. CG with cheese and a couple of other tacos.
    Monica P.

    Counter Service. Very friendly nice ladies took our order. She gave me sample of the carne guisada and it is delicious! I had to order one. It was quick and we could see them making fresh tortillas in the back. Prices are cheap! I can't believe how low the prices are considering the price of food nowadays. Will definitely go back.

    Chorizo and egg on the left and spam and egg on the right
    Ian P.

    A 5 star is hard to get from me as I do not give them out lightly. However, Nano's changed my breakfast taco mindset. I had chorizo and egg as well as their spam and egg tacos when I visited. The tortilla was perfect and big. Most taco restaurants I've eaten at have small tortillas, not Nano's! For $2.35 per taco that I got I would've probably paid well over $3 for. Also the sauce that was provided was the best I've ever tasted! Amazing and helpful staff who refunded me when they realized they made a slight mistake on my ticket which I didn't even notice. If we are ever in the Corpus Christi area again, we will be stopping at Nano's!

    This place always has yummy food and allows our cross country team to come unwind and have a bite. I applaud the business because they never complain when we come in (20+) hungry athletes and parents. The food is good! It's your typical local taco place in the neighborhood. If you want pristine conditions head up the road to Chick Fil A. The place does not look old but has an older kind of feel to it. I must admit the chicken is good and the amount they give you is more than enough. Haven't been inside the restrooms so they may be great, just have never gathered the courage to do so. Plus I always say grace before I eat, so I pray away the invisible germs LOL Also the drive through is Never ending so everyone else must have the same sentiments of good food no matter how the inside may look. Update: Owner wrote me (Thank you!), he said they take Cleanliness Serious and I Believe Him!! Changed to 5 stars because that was 5 star Response! Thank you Nano Tacos! Best Taco Place in Corpus

    Medium toasted chicken taco on the left. Bean chalupa on the right.  Their special home made hot sauce on the side.

    At my favorite taco joint (again) this is my third time here in a row. So freaking good. Their home made tortillas and hot sauce is to die for. So spicy and yummy at the same time. And I don't even like spicy food. But the burn is worth it, IMO. Is it fully celiacs friendly? The food is most definitely gluten free, but cross contamination is quite possible. Given how busy they are, I'm sure it's very quite possible. It's also run by the family, and celiac is something quite hard to grasp unless you've sat down and read about it. Let's just say I do have canker sores in my mouth and was flatulence the whole day, maybe minor headaches as well but no runny you know what. Then again I recently ingested some chocolate that I didn't realized until later that it was contaminated with wheat. I know I know FML. So is it fully celiac friendly? Not sure is going to be my answer. Was it yummy and worth it? Yes! I love it! Even if it kills me a little (maybe). My final advise: Proceed as you wish, don't blame anyone but yourself if you get sick. Highly recommended for everyone else! Make sure you try a drop of the hot sauce before you put it all over your plate.

    THIS IS MY FAVORITE BREAKFAST TACO PLACE!!!! It's sooooooo GOOD! No matter how long I'm in town, I have to get there! The salsa is amazing! The carne guisada is the stuff of dreams. Just really really good. Thank you!

    Jumbo Taco (minus their infamous hot sauce)
    Mia D.

    Had their jumbo taco which was amazing but they forgot to pack the hot sauce, which is why I docked them a star.

    "Carne asada taco" which looked like mystery meat and tasted horrible. Horrible texture as well.

    With the name being in Spanish you'd expect true authentic Mexican flavor but no just another white…read morewashed Mexican restaurant. The most authentic flavor item in my lunch was the refried beans that look like poop at first sight. Rice was bland with cumin flavor and the mole was the most disappointing. Might as well have called them regular enchiladas, the flavor was basic taco mix with a tiny taste of mole. Just a thick cumin or comino paste. Enchiladas should be dripping with sauce in the inside. These were dry tortillas that were barely garnished with sauce on top. The chicken inside was very flavorul but dry. Then the 16 oz lemonade was 4$ and it was super sour ! I never leave reviews. But this was truly disappointing.

The corn, the bacon wrapped jalapeños and the nachos with tinga chicken. The corn had something bitter in it I chalked it up to the lime, little to much but I'm sure can be ordered without. The bacon wrapped jalapeños were perfectly made and zero fire which I appreciate. The nachos were huge half corn tortillas with refried black beans and cheese when I added the chicken I didn't realize it would add 14 dollars to my nachos!! lol I honestly thought it made the nachos 14 dollars. The sweet tea is soooooo good So I said maybe based on my $59.00 lunch bill.

However, I would imagine that, depending on your taste, it might be hit or miss, but that is strictly subjective. I got a Birria taco and a Picadillo taco. The birria was amazing (see pic) with pulled beef, cilantro, and onion (typical traditional style), the other one was some kind of minced meat and potato (still good but not even close to the birria. Also, I got a "large" shake and the thing is the size of a 7-11 slushie!! However, I think the ice cream had some homemade element to it, because it was kinda gritty and icee. Didnt have a tone of flavor, but not big deal. Final thought: I gave it a 4* but it is VERY close to 5. The birria was a 5* for sure. Will definitely go again because they have like 20 different breakfast tacos that I need to try. Since I am a breakfast, brunch, and brinner kind of guy, breakfast tacos are good any time of day!

Their tortillas are fresh and homemade every time. Honestly good enough to take home and eat on their own smothered in butter. The barbacoa tacos are one of my go-to orders. Always consistent. The papas a la mexicana are another favorite, sometimes with some eggs mixed in. Horchata is excellent too. I usually sip some on the way home and mix the rest into my coffee. I haven't made it there for lunch or dinner yet, but for breakfast tacos, this is one of the best spots on this side of Corpus.
