Food is legit! I say that as a Texan who was visiting and loved my meal. Had a machete al pastor, and the elote... So why not five stars? Because it took nearly one hour (54 minutes) from the time I arrived until when I got my food. That is about 15 minutes of waiting to order, and 39 waiting on them to make it. It's very busy, and although they have the staff, they are still a bit overwhelmed for the volume. Plan accordingly. The wait is worth it. read more

Tried Taco Libre today: shrimp tacos and carnitas tacos. Busy place, but well organized and smooth production. Probably the best tacos in the region. Very good!! Thanks read more

Simple menu, clean and I love that they offer vegetarian options. I got the machete w/ half onions, cheese and peppers and half mushroom and cheese. It was my 1st time having a machete and I was pleased. Very flavorful and didn't get soggy. Two thumbs up read more

Taco Libre - Huarache - Mexican Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

A LOVVVVVE So crispy juicy spicy .not buying the corn again i cld taste the husk smell on it was clearly not washed or rinsed off but the attendant girl that wears glasses is a doll and the older lady that delivers orders is a heartbeat lol. Really hate trying to find food to eat in this town but tis a no brainer here one of my first bites was a fire burning party in my mouth. Their sauce bay is ...makes me speechless. Ive bought trader joes chips n loaded my salsa up here because its THAT GREAT, authentic and basically they need larger containers or something. I also love that all their food purges next day right on time. And if you dont store the salsa properly or eat quick enough it begins swelling up the plastic to explode- REAL INGREDIENTS. K im done. Oh I left out the nutritious refreshing cucumber lemon drink. Dont wait til high noon to come here their lines burst at the seams read more

I do love me some good Taco Libre. I have yet to have something I don't enjoy here. They have an incredible selection of meats/varieties as well as more unique items as well. When it comes to quick, counter order Mexican food, this is your place. I would love if they'd open up more locations in the Twin Cities! Also two more very important words: Salsa bar! read more

Really good food! Guacamole and fish tacos were outrageously good! Wish they had limes available by the salsas, but otherwise the food is great. Also love the prices! Next time skip Chipotle and support local, great food (and better guacamole)! read more

Got delivery through DoorDash. The shredded chicken taquitos were great, covered in queso fresco, lettuce, and slices of avocado. The chips and queso was also very good - the chips were a little thick but tasted fresh and I liked that the queso wasn't packed with peppers or tomatoes, just really nice creamy white cheese. They give you plenty with the order in a large cup. The churros didn't travel well but that's true for almost all fried things but where still really nice and came with a little cup of caramel. Everything was packaged well and tasted fresh. I will definitely order again or come in to try the other menu items. read more

I give the official smack down on this restaurant!!! Everything is the real deal! All I want is good food, with flavor, properly cooked, properly flavored, choices, good service, a clean area, clean bathrooms, a descent location. There are no bells and whistles here just food that make you understand why you are alive. BOOM! read more

Awesome tacos and salsa!!!!!!!! Highly recommend, have been there a few times, excellent every time. read more

A step above what you would consider chipotle/qdoba type places to eat. I have been here 3 times and every time I get a bowl. I have switched up the protein all 3 times to make the determination that the steak/pork/chicken is just a TOUCH bland. Just to be clear, that's flavor, not the way it's cooked. No issues there. Other than the slightly bland protein above, the customer experience was on par with what I would expect a chipotle/qdoba to be. Nothing wrong with it, just would have liked to see a little more energy with regards to the product served. It's delish! Advertise it and sell it to the world. Brag about the awesome salsa options. That's the reason I took a star away. Again, food was delish. A step above when it comes to burrito Bowles. I will keep returning to get that fix! read more

Tasty tacos at an easily accessible location right off the highway. I ordered the steak tacos and fish. It really did taste like a street taco. Plus they allow you to a help your self to sauces via the sauce station. read more

You already know, machete machete machete. Come get it! Guacamole was delicious too! Great place to eat! read more

Nice little taco place in the southern burbs. Good variety of Mexican foods with the tacos being at prices that I would consider appropriate for street fair (~$2.75 each). I loved seeing things like beef tongue and cheek on the menu! My husband and I each got 2. We both got the cabeza (beef cheek) and he went with the al pastor (pork) for his 2nd while I went with the tinga de res (beef with onions and sauce). One you place your order you get a # and grab a table. The beef cheek was tender but I thought it was missing some flavor - it definitely needed a healthy dose of salsa. Loved the flavor of the tinga but it was SUPER messy to eat from all the sauce. My husband's al pastor was the clear winner. Our friend also got a churro which was nice and crispy but didn't have nearly enough sugar on it to compare to the ones I've gotten in Mexico and the markets in my SoCal hometown. Good overall though and I would definitely go back to try different tacos! read more

Man, I hated this place. I was trying to figure out the menu and the person working just rushed me along. I do not understand the appeal. Maybe because they are open late and one of the few options. The meat was dry, the toppings were skimpy. I was so disappointed. I ended up getting a bean burrito at the gas station on my way to the hotel so I'd actually be full. read more

My SO and I each got three street tacos. Service was very friendly. There is a salsa bar with three different salsas; plastic gloves are to the left, although we thought they were takeaway bags! I'm not sure how covid friendly it was, but the salsas were good nonetheless! Pastor was probably The best of the tacos. Carnitas was dry and too salty-took on the texture of the tuna you get in a can (stringy mouthfeel). Barbacoa was good. read more

Amazing, quality, authentic tacos. The prices are also great. I can't say anything bad about this place! read more

I love going here especially with my family Pura comida authenticoI love this Latinx based restaurant read more

I always come here when I visit the city's, they are always friendly and u can get the sauces at ur own liking from mild to hot.

For the sake of brevity, this place is actually pretty good! You'd definitely be in for a treat. Now on to the more in depth details. The restaurant was rather busy and crowded with only standing room available near the order counter. My family and I waited about 20-25min in the entrance area for our food. In all honesty, I can't say the wait is worth it. I've gotten faster service at strictly dine-in establishments that were able to exceed even the high bar set by this place in terms of taste and quality. If you could call to order ahead, review the menu and do just that. That'll make the waiting game a non issue! I ended up ordering the quesabirria taco combo complete with the consome. If it's your first time having birria and you're just dying to know what the hype is about, this place will take care of you! The food was fresh and flavorful, and obviously of high quality. My only gripe is that the meat just wasn't as tender as I'm accustomed to and the consome was good, but not great. Soups develop a richer, deeper flavor profile as they are allowed to cook lower and slower for a longer period, but this one just was not that. My wife ordered the elote which was just okay. I will caveat this by saying I'm partial to extremely authentic street corn as I originally grew up in Texas. This restaurant's version is a rather basic offering complete with good corn and a dusting of chile powder and cheese bound by mayo. The dominant flavor here was the chile powder which just seemed to overpower the palate. Again, I'm just trying to temper expectations. This place is definitely good. I'm certain they deliver consistent, good food. There are just things a consumer deserves to be aware of. Now go get some noms! read more

Ordered 80$ worth of food, only received 3 out of 8 items. I went back in and they told me someone stole my food and I need to go through grub hub for a refund. read more

Great service. Food was amazing!! A little pricey for the sides but a great atmosphere and delicious food!

It looks like they have some lovely Alfredo there I would love to try it cause I'm only in the state for a day working I love some good flavorful Alfredo read more

These were Al Pastor with corn tortilla , delicious. Cool place for simple and very good menu. Also had the fish taco. It was tasty (fried) but missing something coming only w flour tortilla and lettuce tomatoes and good 'dressing'. Maybe could have ordered differently or used the salsa bar. read more

Excellent tacos! I have visited this location twice now and I really like their street tacos. The meat (chicken and ground beef) is flavorful and tender. They were very busy both times and the only thing I felt could be improved was the time it took to get the food. read more

Solid tacos. Diverse menu. My kids love it! We eat here at least once a month. The picadillio is amazing!

Hola, my friend. Please liberate my tastebuds with flavor! Taco Libre has three locations, and I'm so very happy one of them is near my workplace off 100 and 494. The al pastor is amazing, it has fresh pineapple in it, and one of their logos is a heart-shaped shwarma/gyro stack with pineapple shaped flame on top. How could it be anything but amazing?! (fun fact, al pastor was developed in central Mexico by Lebanese immigrants) All the taco meats and vegetarian options are actually very good, so you'll no go wrong with your option. If you do need a little something extra, go add your choice of fixings from the well-stocked salsa and toppings bar! The corn tortillas here are also not bad! Sadly, the vegetarian options were all on the greasy side, but no one has ever centered a healthy diet around tacos except in our fantasies. If you have a buddy, want something for lunch and dinner, or starving to death for real, consider a Torta. The Cubana is phenomnomenal and is about the size of a baby's head. If you somehow saved room for dessert, do get the Flan Napolitano. It's the taller, denser, and eggyer cousin of Spanish Flan, and it's wonderflan. *heart* read more

Omg this place is so good, we were looking for fast casual and this exceeded our expectations. The food is cooked to order so it's super fresh. We sat in a comfortable booth while we ate and the environment is nice and clean. The food is incredible. read more

Great tacos. If you want Mexican street tacos in the suburbs, this is your place. They also have a lot on the menu, so your cravings will be satisfied. read more

This place has great, authentic Mexican food! My wife and I tried their delicious al pastor and asada tacos and the Mexican corn (elote) today. The al pastor taco was the best street taco I've ever eaten (no joke)! The asada taco was very generous in its beef serving, although the al pastor taco had more flavor. Try the elote while you're there as a fun side - it's a tasty combo of corn, pepper and cheese! I'm looking forward to trying their machete next time (it looks very unique)! Welcome to the neighborhood, Taco Libre! You are a welcome replacement to Baja Sol and I hope you succeed in your Edina location!! read more

Second time trying pick up during COVID. Very bad. Was messaged my order was ready, but ended up waiting for 15 minutes which is what happened the first time as well. Only one person responsible for the counter so multiple customers waiting to order or pick up- which means there's a cluster of people in a small area. None of the customers were wearing masks, which is not their fault, but although all the staff had masks on, they were all pulled down to reveal their nose and mouth. Not coming back until this Covid thing is over despite their food being really good (which is why I gave them a two instead one). I'm not willing to risk death for some tacos. read more
