Small corner shop near Arc Triomphe serving Mexican style tacos. Pastor and Baja tacos were very good and reasonably priced. These are basically street tacos so if you're hungry, you'll need to get multiple tacos to satisfy your appetite. Service was good, place is small and wasn't busy at the time. Would recommend for those craving a Mexican fix while in Barcelona read more

After a long day of being on the road for a tour, we wanted something quick and simple. While Spain is pretty far from Mexico and in Arizona, we know good Mexican food, the neon "Mexican Food" sign on the side of this place piqued our curiosity. It is nothing special inside and reminds me of a hole-in-the wall taco joint in a small town in AZ. I ordered a beer and two tacos and sat down to wait. The food arrived pretty quickly and it was surprisingly good. I had the Pirate and Pibil tacos. (note that these are "street taco" size and not "American size") I have no complaints about it: the price was reasonable, it was served quickly and it had great flavor. read more

Fantastic, fast tacos. I got... Pibil: Slow roasted pork marinated in achiote, topped with red onion Tinga: Chicken in a tomato and chipotle sauce, topped with lettuce Pirata: Seared fillet steak with melted cheese, topped with avocado Pastor: Marinated pork topped with onion, coriander, and pineapple Of these, Pirata was the standout. That melted cheese mixed with the steak sooooo well. The Pibil was also amazing. Pastor was a little weird because the pineapple was pretty hard. With the tacos costing 2.50€ or less, you can eat very well for very little money. If you want to blast your tacos with some salsa, they have 5 different flavors with escalating spice profiles. Nice touch. Taco Alto is very, very casual. It's the kind of place you go to grab a quick bite and keep moving. But if I were in the area and had a desire for a fast taco, I'd drop in again to try more flavors! read more

We were missing tacos with that California taco flavor and so we popped into this place while walking by. They make the most flavorful tacos we have ever had! Good vegan and vegetarian options and their tinga chicken and safari chicken were also excellent. read more

Great spot to go to if you're looking for a quick meal. Tacos were just ok here though. Would suggest going elsewhere for tacos but my friends and I were looking for a fast dinner which this sufficient for. read more

First of all, love him. Him being the Mister behind the counter that loved bob dylan or just knew who he was lol. Me and my posse (love u guys) were in Barcelona a few weeks ago and day after day would go to this place right before they closed and they would still serve us with smiles even though they were probably hating us on the inside. And out just kidding!!! They were so sweet and all of the tacos (and I mean all of them we went day after day) were brilliant and beautiful and tasted soooooo good. Especially the little cauliflower one with the warm tortilla. And the nachos. VEGAN OF COURSE. Just kidding whateva u want. What I miss most is Well you'll just have to go and find out. Love you guys and thank you for everything Xoxo Oh read more

This location never has tinga. What taco places runs out of chicken during the week and opens their shop without it?!

This is a cute little taco shop located in a touristy part of Barcelona. The employees were very friendly and welcoming to their guests. The place was clean and well kept. I liked that they had illustrations on the wall to represent each style of taco that they sold. My favorite was the pirata - steak with avocado and cheese. Very flavorful and tasty for a reasonable price! They were also super fast with our order. Would go here again if I find myself in this part of Barcelona in the future. read more

This is a nice little gem. Delicious tacos and really good margaritas! The prices are great. read more

Nice and air-conditioned inside, which was a great relief for us during a hot summer day. The tacos were good, but nothing super memorable. If you're looking for some good tacos, I would recommend this place. read more

Nice little taco shop in Barcelona. We had luckily missed the line extending out the door. The Safari taco was my favorite by far. I like the fact that all the hot sauces are labeled 1-5 in terms of heat, you're not having to guess. If you're into tacos check it out. read more

Taco Alto - From most hot to least hot -- - Mexican Near Me - Barcelona, B

Best tacos in SPAIN!! AND THE WORLD probably BETTER THAN MEXICO. I've never had authentic tacos from Mexico so that's a reach but these babies are on another level. Order at least 3 because they're small, but they're pretty cheap. About 1.96-2.50€ for one. Definitely try the gringa - especially if you're from the states read more

Amazing tacos!! Ordered 4 off the menu and was super pleased with all of them. Favorites were Pastor- the pork with pineapple. SOO GOOD. And the safari- grilled chicken with bell pepper and sweet onion. They have a variety of hot sauces and really good prices. I wish this wasn't my last evening in Spain so that I could come back again and try the other items on the menu. read more

Good tacos. Kids liked them as well, although the cheese is a little more gourmet than they are used to. However, from an adult standpoint they tasted pretty good. I would also definitely recommend the Baja. Beware though that seating is a bit limited during busy times. read more

Being Mexican I felt the need to see how the tacos were in Spain and OOOOOOF, these were bomb and only a small walk from our hotel. Definitely recommend. Delicioso!! Necesito regresar antes de que regrese a los EE.UU. read more

Legit flavors on hipster tacos. Margaritas are outstanding, too. Fresh ingredients. The place is small and it can get packed pretty quick. Also, there are three tables hidden outside on the side of the building. Bonus if you can sit outside. read more

Al pastor tacos, pork is so chewy and tasteless. Disgusting Portion or guacamole is super small for 2 euro too. And while I was waiting for my tacos I saw how the cook was mixing the sauce and tried it from the same spoon and then continued to mix the same spoon from his mouth. So bad Not recommended read more

By far the best tacos in Barcelona. The nicest people are here and they speak some English. I have been ordering mexicana food in Spanish for a while so it was cool to do it in proper Spanish. They have amazing tacos here! By far the best ones I have tried in Barcelona, and they are a great price! The only bad thing about this place is that they don't have any really spicy salsa. But they have sooo much flavor and just a little spice. Great great great read more

I'm from the U.S., more specifically Southern California where you can find great tacos almost anywhere. These tacos are amazing, and a must try. Super affordable option and would recommend the 4 most sold tacos and a beer for €12.50. Can't get any better than that except their salsas. I had Number 3-5 and loved the spice level. No. 5 is tolerable if you love spicy food. Again, highly recommend. read more

This place was amazing! Such great prices for such quality food. Really liked the Tinga taco! 4 different options for salsa!!!!! So cool. Also it's counter service, so you don't have to wait for a bill. read more

Delicious tacos in a great atmosphere! Clean, modern, and colorful space with nice employees who speak English. The margaritas rimmed with salt are great as well as the variety of homemade salsas. As for the tacos, yum! They have interesting combinations of ingredients all with good flavor and for around 2€ each. Great place to stop when around Ciudtadella and Arc de Triumph. read more

We enjoyed this Mexican place! We ordered the American nachos, one Tinga taco, one Gringo taco, and they were delicious! My favorite was the Tamarind Margarita! That was the best! read more

To be quite honest, I never leave reviews but the service is top notch. Everything about this place is the real deal.

Best tacos I had during my stay in Barcelona! If you are in the mood for chicken tacos definitely get the free-range version as it was so much better than the pulled chicken. The steak tacos with avacado and melted cheese was the best taco I have ever had before. Only place I ate twice at during my stay in Barcelona because it was that good! read more

Great late night option with cheap tacos! The chicken tacos were a bit on the salty side but the staff was friendly! They have 5 different hot salsas for you to choose from. Overall I would return! read more

Great little place with different style tacos. I really actually loved the chicken quesadilla. It was made with corn tortillas so totally GF and the flavor of the chicken was really spectacular. They also offer cervesa and margaritas that are decent. Great fast place to grab a bite with good prices as well. read more

I had the Pirata, safari, Tulum, & Sinaloa tacos. Each one had a distinct and great flavor. I think my personal favorite was the Safari with grilled chicken with bell peppers and onion. The chicken was very juicy and flavorful on its own which is sometimes not the case with taco joints like this. With that said, I'd easily recommend any of the tacos I had as they were all great. read more

A bit underwhelming for us - some of our tacos (~€2 each) were way too salty, and it took a good 25 minutes to get our 8 tacos and a plate of nachos... Some of the tacos were good though, and the waitress kept a huge smile on her face all evening long despite being clearly overworked :) read more

Great spot for a quick meal! Fresh ingredients and fun food. Try all tacos, couldn't complain about any of them. Service was quick and friendly. My only minor complaint is that my margarita was a little small, but the prices were great so it was a great meal. read more

This was SO GOOD. Best tacos i have had in barcelona, authentic, tasty and with good ingredients. The price is great considering how good the food is and the place is cool but a bit low key. The staff are very nice and will totally help you if you have any doubts. I cant wait to go back, i will also recommend it and take ppl there too. read more

Best food we had in Barcelona all week. Tacos were fantastic. Los piratas and gringas were my favorite.

Looked for some taco places yesterday but didn't manage to find any good ones. Today found this place by accident. The people who work there seem very nice. The tacos were authentic mexican and freshly prepared. If you want something quick and tasty, this is the right place to go to. I will come back. read more

Went back again because my son couldn't get enough of the taco pibil and al pastor. This time I tried the margarita which was excellent. We love this place! read more

Tried this place for the first time last week and it did not disappoint. I had 3 tacos which were all very good. And I soaked those down with a classic margarita, which was good but strong. My favorite part about this restaurant is there 5 levels of hot sauce. I tried the hottest one first and regretted it right away. But the 2nd hottest was just right, and I had that with my tacos which added a nice spice. Prices are decent; the most expensive one being 2.50 Euros. They also have different options for tacos; I had 3 but I will probably get 6 next time because the tacos do run small. Will certainly go back to try their nachos, which sound delicious. read more
