    Bean and cheese burrito
    Leah D.

    My husband and I eat here more than any other restaurant! We absolutely love their tacos, burritos, and nachos! This place has tons of vegetarian and gluten free options as well. They have breakfast burritos available all day too. Everything is very reasonably priced and always large portions. We've always had great service and will continue to come back.

    Oscars is always great. I have never received a bad meal from any of the many Oscars Taco Shop locations I have been to. And this newer location on Church street is no exception. I really liked the flow/interior of this location with a long simi-private Hi-top table on the furthest side which would be great for a small gathering of friends or co-workers I brought my youngest son in to get a couple of his favorite burritos. This place rocks!

    Oscar's Taco Shop a nice little hide away for good Mexican food... The food here is great and its a roomy little restaurant. Very clean place, Mexican music playing in the air, and nice little Mexican art on the walls... cute and very simple. So, if you want something other than Camino Real and Taco Bell - LOL! I would suggest try this little joint out. Note - there is an opportunity for improvement at Oscar's Taco Shop on HOSPITALITY; staff not friendly ... However, the food was good. So, if you can handle un-friendly staff you will be ok. You will forget about them after you receive your food... 4 star for good food! Work on the hospitality folks. Take care, H²

    Not bad. The food for me was a little bland, but I like to eat things with a lot of seasoning and flavors. For fast food, I felt that the prices should've been better. My ground beef taco was $2.69. Compared to Taco Bell's (fast food) taco, it was quite a difference. Even at Camino the tacos aren't $2.69.

    Expensive in my opinion but it's aight. I can spend the same money across the street at Camino and get better fajitas.

I popped in one day after running errands around Murfreesboro and when I first saw that it was an old BK converted into Mexican restaurant, I thought to myself this is either going to be distrusting or delicious, and lucky for me it was the latter! El Cubilete serves up authentic Mexican food, and while you can still get the classics you are used to, they focus a lot on the true Mexican classics. Being the gringo I am, I went with my tried and true chicken, rice and cheese sided with some chori-queso. While the order was basic, the food itself was not. The queso, chips, chicken, tortillas and everything was fresh, hot and absolutely delicious. To with the food, they brought out their house red and green sauce. SPICY is an understatement, but I could handle in small dabs, and through that realized while the green was milder, the red had better flavor. But honestly it was lose-lose for me with those sauces. In addition to the food, they have a small drink menu with beers, frozen drinks and a solid selection of agua frescas. Service was stellar. The owner was super kind, welcoming me in, checking on me during my meal and ultimately ringing me out. All the servers were friendly and helpful. Overall, odd layout and set up, along with service being communal (everyone serves everyone together), which is a bit odd...but even with all that, the food and service speak up and stand alone. Great spot with good folks and tasty food! I would certainly swing back through when in Murfreesboro.

We've been…read moresearching for so long and I had honestly given up multiple times, but like all great explorers, we endured and persevered. Taqueria Lupita is a great spot nestled inside a gas station market. As soon as we walked in, I knew we were in for a treat. The smell of meat on the griddle and the aroma of toasted tortillas met our noses and it made my mouth instantly start salivating. The team behind the counter was working fast and got our order out super quick. I opted for a chicken burrito and it took all of my self control to keep from eating it on the drive home. But like all great explorers of old, we had to take our bounty back to the motherland for all to enjoy. I cut it open and see what the cross section looked like, and it was practically perfect. I forgot to ask for avocado, so that's on me. We got the red and green salsas with it and they were both great. I loved the roasty undertones and heat of the red salsa. The first bite of this burrito took me back to another place, far from Tennessee. It was a glorious first bite. The melty cheese, the rice, beans and the chicken combined to make the most delicious symphony of flavors. I can't say enough good things about this burrito, you have to try it for yourself. I'm eager to try more things on their menu, especially the torta, it looked amazing.

As soon as we saw the (previously Oakland) Raiders logo, we knew it was gonna be good! I got the steak (asada) burrito - it came with rice, beans, meat, sour cream, and lettuce. If I had to give a critique, I'd say it's just missing a little guac. But oh my word, this burrito transported me right back to California! The flavors were spot on, the ratios were perfect. It may have taken us five years, but we finally found a Mexican spot that will definitely be in our rotation. It's located inside a small gas station, which confused us at first. But once we walked in, it was clear where to order. Both guys working seemed extremely kind and helpful, and overall just happy to be serving people incredible food.

It appeared that they had a group of people in the center of the restaurant whom everyone was trying to take care of. The taste of the food in all honesty was 1 step above Taco Bell, and I love some Taco Bell, so that isn't a dis at all. My boyfriend and I both had burritos, mine had carnitas and his had the option of ground beef and chicken. He said the chicken was so bland, that the only way he knew it was there is that it fell out of the burrito. Would I go back, yes, because it reminded me of when I lived in Chattanooga.

I arrived and my server Raquel got me set up with a beer and brought me some chips and salsa. The Pozole Verde is HUGE, enough for three people because I was only able to make a small dent in it. The chips were crispy and the salsa surprised me, great flavor! The Pozole is a rich stew loaded a solid green tomatillo/chile broth, shredded chicken, hominy, while you add the sides of radish, lime juice, lettuce, cilantro, and onions. The spice level (I am a wimp) on this stew is close to the top of my range causing some sweating and sniffles. The downside...the furnishing could use some rehab. Upside...good food and service, I'll visit again to try their Birria Ramen.
