I've been here twice, getting the fish dinner and later sides of rice and beans…read more I thought the rice had lots of flavor, and I'll go back for more. The beans weren't my favorite at first taste, but they grew on me. They are flavorful too, and a tiny bit spicy. I'll order them again too. The fish was fried (not deep fried), straightforward, delicious. I love that there's a fish option with all the other meats. The price of the fish was on the menu, but I didn't see prices for the rice and beans sides. When the sides' cost was told to me, I was somewhat surprised ($9.44) as it seemed a little high. But I realize costs are going up for everyone and these folks planned, purchased, and cooked the ingredients for my tasty meals, plus they need to make some profit doing it. So, I'll pay it. They deserve it. The parking is awkward if not dangerous. It's worth parking on a side street half a block or more away. The location is great, very convenient, however.

Always have dope friendly staff that make good conversation as they prepare your…read moreorder - never tried the peanut butter dog yet but it sounds intriguing as I've actually heard great reviews of it. I get the Tacoma dog! Always made to perfection never lacking on the ingredients. They have options for hot links and polish sausages too - can add a bag of chips with your dog if you'd like. Overall it's a perfect little place to stop and get a small bite and it's in the gallery parking lot so if your a smoker it's a easy two stop shop, getchu a nice doobie and a dog

Taqueria El Grande is hands down one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! The indoor + outdoor…read moreseating is the cherry on top. The menu is incredibly versatile with so many options that there's truly something for everyone. The chicken fajitas arrived at the table sizzling hot, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. The birria de res was another standout! Slow-cooked to perfection, juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. The portions are generous, and the prices are more than fair for the amount and quality of food you receive. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. I can't wait to come back!

I visited this restaurant many years ago and was glad to find a Mexican place that had a salsa bar…read more Moved back into the area recently and was happy to see they are still around. I enjoy Mexican places that feel authentic, feel like a genuine in Korea, and also have the option for you to get some salsa, onions, and radishes, along with limes to go along with your food . I wish they had a little bit more variety to the salsas in terms of taste, complexity, and heat... but I still appreciate that they have this option I have had tacos here, burritos, and other items and I feel like usually they are pretty spot on Although for a Mexican place, this place is extremely expensive. When I do find a Mexican place that meets my needs, I will probably go to that place instead of this place as I think it is ridiculous to charge the amount they are charging for the ingredients that go into Mexican food. Ambiance wise, it looks like a typical Taqueria Nonetheless, I think this is a place that is definitely worth trying

Experienced I Luv Elotes at the Taste at The Puyallup Fairgrounds a little while back, and…read moreunfortunately the experience was a little underwhelming. My husband and I have developed an obsession with elote and elote cups over the last year or so, so we were super stoked to see them there. We'd never come across their stand before in other settings (other festivals, farmers markets, etc). We were doing the $5 Tastes so that we wouldn't load up on one dish and be too full (it's the way to go, trust me), so we were happy to see their $5 Taste was an Elote Cup! I'm going to chalk the experience up to the Elote Cups probably being batched, but it was sadly nothing to write home about. It was INSANELY watery and didn't have the usual flavor that we were used to. I mean it wasn't inedible, but it left quite a bit to be desired. I'd definitely try them again in the future if I came across them, but with an actual full sized serving and see if that would make a difference. Staff was nice, though!!

Go get some! Lot's of options. Win for the kids and adults. Check their Facebook for locations.read more

It would be nice if there was local farms, produce, eggs, meat, etc. There's far better farmers markets in the area. I would just consider this an outdoor market.

Amazing!! Burgers seasoned perfectly, fresh cut fries, and a welcoming crew…read more What more could you ask for?! I visited six months ago from Vegas and still think about the burgers. I'll be back in Tacoma in March and this is on my list of places to go back to.

Solid neighborhood burger spot attached to a butcher shop/fresh veggie market…read more I had the triple onion crunch burger and I liked the sweetness of the charred/caramelized onions, crunch from the fried onion strings, and the soft onion bun. The gouda was lost in the sweetness, a saltier cheese may be a better option. As for the burger patty, it was cooked perfectly and was clearly freshly ground. However, today it was missing salt and it really needed it with all of the onions. I'd definitely go back and try their bacon cheeseburger and the pies/desserts.

have passed by this spot so many times and finally pulled up before the cold set in!…read more absolutely loved the tacos, i tried 3 of every chicken, beef, and al pastor option as well as the horchata. everything was excellently priced and was fresh, had excellent texture, and were seasoned great. especially loved the al pastor, it comes with a bite of pineapple that paired beautifully with the marinated meat. the line moves fast and for toppings, sauces, and etc. everything is self serve on the side after you order with bags and to go containers ready to go so by the time your taco is ready, you're ready! parking is in a small lot behind the stand, i found it to be ample when visiting :) overall: 10/10 taste: 10/10 price: 10/10 throughly enjoyed! would recommend.

The portions are hefty, the prices are incredibly reasonable, the service is super fast, its open late, AND best of all, everything I've had (the carne asada & al pastor in particular) tastes so much better and more authentic than anything else we have in the city. If you're having trouble finding it, it's a tarp stand tent on Rainier adjacent to Buddha Brothers. Parking is limited, and the area can be a tad rough later in the day, but it's still most definitely worth a visit.
