The carne asada tacos were excellent, and my daughter's quesadilla was great. The garnish on the tacos was fresh and flavorful. This was a nice road trip stop. The restaurant itself is fairly plain, but for a quick stop that isn't stereotypical fast food, this taco shop was a pleasant find.

I love their nachos but it's the little extras that make them stand in out. No mystery meat here. Just flavorful crunchy goodness. The pickled carrots are so good.

However it is worth the drive.

This restaurant is a fave for their breakfast burritos and their Birria tacos are the best. Breakfast burritos with ham, egg, beans and cheese are excellent at this restaurant. Excellent! 5/5 Birria tacos are the best tasting, best value, and tickle my comfort zone with delicious beef and consommé. 5/5 If you are in the Athens area, please stop by and try their foods. They are delicious, freshly made and not super spicy. You can add spice if you like. Please stop by and give this locally owned restaurant a visit soon. 5/5

Oh man, this place makes me so happy. Since moving to Alabama from CA I have not been actively…read moregoing to search for tacos. I just didn't want to be disappointed. I went to Taco Mama once with a friend, tried El Cazador because the stand on Hwy 72 looked too cute, and went to Cantina Laredo with the hubby for a lunch date. Don't get me wrong, the tacos weren't terrible, but they weren't something I'd crave necessarily. I read about this taco truck during a google search and thought omg this is too good to be true, but it wasn't! I tried it for the 1st time last week with the hubby and was so thrilled. We both got 4 carne asada tacos for $6. So cheap! (I've found that food is not necessarily cheaper here than in CA even with the high wages in CA just saying...) And man was it good. The meat was so well seasoned and they gave plenty of meat per street taco. The only thing missing is some darn Carne Asada fries! I wish that was a thing here! Oh and orange bang. Where can a girl get some orange bang around here? I need my whipped orange creamsicle drink stat! Or whipped pina colada drink! They do have horchata that is a plus! I'm so glad I found this place. Makes this Cali girl so happy!

The tacos were great and the service was fast. I definitely need to go back to try more.read more

I haven't had a bad thing from there. And I try to go as often as I am allowed. The chicken fajita tacos are my favorite and I love that you can choose between flour and corn tortillas and even ask for a mix if you order multiple (you will) For tortas my number one would be the cochinita! The flavors just hit and it's an absolute delight for your tastebuds. I have no bad things to say. And the customer service is always to the nines. If you have your fur baby with you, you can even ask for a dog friendly quesadilla/taco to give!

Their pastor and lengua are phenomenal (asada is hit or miss) and the flour tortillas are soooo chewy and delicious. Their cheese sauce and salsa are mid. And the only reason why I took off a star is because their hours can be super unpredictable. Make sure to give them a call OR check their instagram page BEFORE driving over! Even though their hours said they'd be open, they're not always open... Eating tacos at Valentina's is one of the reasons why I look forward to coming to HSV. So make sure to give them a call before eating some of the best tacos ever~

Right away the vibe felt right -- ESPN on the screens, good music, and you can tell it's a family-run spot that takes pride in what they do. The awards for best Mexican restaurant in Limestone County over the years definitely show.

Rice and beans were solid, and the cold Modelo in a chilled glass with fresh lime hit perfectly. Prices on the lunch menu are reasonable, which makes it an easy spot to come back to.

I preferred the al pastor between the two. I loved the green and red hot sauces that came with them. The tacos are quite small though. The tamale plate was one tamale covered in some sort of sauce with beans and rice. This was good too! Next time, I'd probably try just a regular tamale to see how it is. We also got the horchata, which was refreshing. Strong cinnamon flavor to it. Prices were good, but the portions aren't too big. The workers were nice, and service was quick. You order at the counter and wait for your number to be called. There are a few stools inside, but it's intended for most to sit outside (both covered and uncovered spots).
