    Chicharron Platter
    Jessica L.

    Get ready for this one. In my opinion, you know it's a good authentic street taco spot/ Mexican street food when it's hole in the wall vibes! This place is located inside a Chevron gas station! Was kind of skeptical at first because the options were nothing I've seen before but then again I haven't been to enough to know. Anyways, order some street tacos and a chicharron platter. The tacos come garnished, just fyi. So if you don't want like cilantro ir onion, let them know. It was all sooooo delicious. I would definitely come back for more. For service, you order and pay up front and they bring it out to you. For the price, it's actually affordable for a large portion. Definitely check this place out. Till then, let's eat!!!!

    Two Azada tacos, and one Pastor Taco.
    Juan Hugo A.

    The food is fire here, the the Azada tacos are really good, and the flour quesadilla is great! The employees are nice and kind while taking your order. The ambient is clean, and the customers are kind. #Yummy #Delicious #MexicanFood #TacoTime #QuesadillaLove

    Carne asada street tacos
    Soul V.

    Gas station taquerias for the win. Tucked in the back of the chevron gas station is Rudy's kitchen. A taco spot with the best gorditas I've had. Very authentic flavors and made fresh to order. I didn't even need salsa, just a squeeze of lime and the seasoning was perfect in the al pastor gordita. They were out of a couple items so bummed about that but overall a good experience. There is also some seating, as well.

    Tacos were alright for the price the chicken taco was super dry, Carne asada was actually pretty good, The Cabeza was tender but needed a bit more seasoning, the chicharon wasn't really my style but I still thought it was okay, and the pastor was aight. Biggest thing is I got charged for more than what the website and the menu stated, so it knocks them down another star.

    Pollo and birria tacos
    Mashi M.

    Humble tacos from humble folk. Ingredients were fresh, tacos were hot and delicious, authentic. Great service and friendly faces. We had pollo, birria, and an elote cup (esquites). The pollo had a good kick and the birria was tender and juicy. The elote was interesting with a good spicy cheesy flavor. It is inside a Chevron but don't be discouraged by appearances. It was great value for good food!

    Chorizo and Egg Breakfast Taco
    Kacie D.

    BREAKFAST TACOS REVIEW ONLY. Food: These tacos are filling. I got two and honestly I could've gotten away with just one. Two reasons why I'm not leaving a five star: lack of breakfast tacos choices & there's not any depth to flavor or texture - it's just a basic good breakfast taco. I really did like the tortilla though. Service: Quick & friendly.

    Chicken tacos

    Some of the best gorditas and tacos I've EVER eaten. This is a hidden gem! Definitely will be coming back often

    Gordita Platter
    Vic M.

    I ordered the gordita platter which comes with rice and beans. The gorditas were incredibly greasy and they were blandly seasoned. There was nothing special about the rice and beans. The salsas were okay. After draining the gorditas, I had to use several more paper towels to absorb some of the remaining grease. It is hard to find good authentic Mexican food in Frisco, TX.!

    Yummy

    I'm originally from Chicago then AZ the El Paso so I know what good menudo is! Aside that there isn't any homely this is as close to a great Menudo there is at this time. I've tried their other items on the menu, but what brings me back is always the Menudo!

    Pozole
    Danny D.

    This is the best Mexican food in Frisco. The owner Rudy is one of the nicest, most humble, genuine dudes I have ever met in my life!!! Love this place. Plenty of seating including tables & booths inside a Chevron Gas Station.

The photos make it look very lively and fun so imagine our surprise at happy hour on a Friday walking into an entirely empty restaurant! Two couples inside and a couple guys drinking on the patio. We still decided to stay because we were hungry and the place itself is super duper nice and cute! We opted to sit at the bar where we were kindly greeted and two TVs playing football with no volume (which I love)! The barstools were very comfortable as well. Ordered two of the BEST margaritas I've ever had with the gran marnier! I now want all my margs made this way. No need for a second! For food, the enchilada verde and the taco lunch plates were pretty dang good. No complaints there and the servings were reasonable and not too much from the lunch menu. No leftovers. Really enjoyed the verde. Chips and salsa were something to write home about! Amazingly toasted and crunchy, I should have asked for a bag to go with just those chips! Very good! All in all, the staff was too kind and it happened to be my friend's birthday so I "snuck away to the restroom" and told our waiter and he surprised us with a perfect tres leches slice that was absolutely delicious! For lunch and margs I spent $65 and he treated us with that dessert and I felt like that was so sweet! Thank you team at Lalo! You guys were great and I now actually like that the restaurant was slower at the time but I do hope they pick up because it was a great place for us! Enjoyed very much and if we are ever back in the area we will stop through.

We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

    Uncle Julio's January 13, 2026…read more 5/5 - Taco Bar Tuesday Win We stopped by Uncle Julio's for Taco Bar Tuesday and, once again, it absolutely delivered. This is one of those restaurants that gets both the food and the atmosphere right, which is harder to find than it should be. We went with the Taco Bar Tuesday special, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a build-your-own taco experience. The chicken and beef were well-seasoned, juicy, and generous in portion size, and the fresh tortillas they make for you are a huge standout -- warm, soft, and clearly made with care. Sadly, we forgot to take the remaining chicken, beef, and fresh tortillas with us -- not because the food wasn't great, but because life with two kids under two is pure chaos. Honestly, that one's on us. Beyond the food, the vibe here is a big reason we keep coming back. The restaurant has tons of character, from the massive bar to the spacious patio. The flame lanterns out front are such a cool touch and really set the tone before you even walk in. It feels lively, fun, and welcoming without being overwhelming. Uncle Julio's is one of those places that works whether you're out for a casual night, a family meal, or just want good food in a great setting. Taco Bar Tuesday is absolutely worth it, and we'll definitely be back -- hopefully remembering the leftovers next time.
