It's quick, cheap and easy. It's local Asian spot that does Tex-Mex. I been here over the years when I used to work in Rego Park and I used to grab food here all the time, I went ago yesterday and it's still pretty awesome. The food: Chicken Fajita- I think this is my fav item, I think the chicken is cooked nicely and the onions and peppers are cooked till nicely soft. I think everything with their salsa added on top really works nicely. Quesadilla with Jack Cheese, Chicken and Steak Supreme- This could have been number one but I was not a fan of how soggy the bottom got. Overall, really delicious from the chicken to the cheese to the sour cream. This is a must order. Shrimp Fajitas- I would get this all the time but these are close to $4 each. The onions and peppers are cooked perfectly and really go well with the shrimp. This is a must but the the price is an issue for me. Chicken Hard Shell Taco- This was better than I expected but the hard taco does lose some of it's crunch during transport. Overall, a good hard taco. read more

Great place always fresh when it arrives. The best part is they are reasonable and quick delivery . I would stay away from taco hell !I meant Taco Bell . If you wanna try some real authentic tacos I would recommend i Taco Place . overall everything is always fresh made to order! read more

Have been coming here for years. Their food is absolutely delicious. I usually get the quesadilla and Chili taco. Everything else is really good as well. My family loves this place highly recommend and it's really affordable you get good sized portions read more

The food is always delicious, and the people who work there are kind and friendly. The delivery is always fast and correct. I never go away disappeared. read more

Good. Not cheap like my usual Tex Mex place on union turnpike. But good. Wish they sold fries like my original spot. But the rice and chicken is always good. The sign outside is a little raggedy. But that's ok. The service I got was very good. They were kind and gave me sauces for free read more

Me and my bf always get the grill chicken chili combo! Soooo delicious I'm obsessed, the chili has so much flavor it's a good combo with the chicken and rice read more

Taco Place - Tex-Mex Near Me - Rego Park, New York

My favorite local Mexican place. Food is always great and they have a large selection. Been going here for years.

This is your standard Tex-Mex place run by Chinese owners. Like any of these spots, their menu consists of hard or soft shell tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos, tostada salads, and meat with rice. I found their food to be very fresh and very filling. For only $7 to $8, you can stuff yourself. The best deal is their combination plate, which comes with your choice of meat, rice and beans, vegetables, and two tortillas. Not for those looking for real Mexican food obviously. read more

Very good for the price you pay. These are one of the cheapest Tex mex places I've come across. Although the food isn't absolutely amazing, but it's decent (and you honestly get what you pay for). I always order the chicken and Tex mex chili combo (around 7 bucks) - and all the food is served in a lunch box style, the rice, beans, salad, soft taco altogether and not separated. Will come from time to time when I crave cheap chicken and Tex mex chili combo. read more

I chose this place cause it had the most ratings but sometimes it doesn't matter. The nachos were not worth the price. There was so many beans and like maybe 10 chips for $10 not worth it. The quesadilla was tasteless. I'll go elsewhere next time read more

They re-opened a while ago. Only for take-out and delivery though--they don't allow indoor dining. They take delivery orders on Yelp through their older name ("Fresh Soft Taco"). The food's the same. They have a large plastic screen at their counter separating employees from customers. There's a sign with a Wi-Fi name/password. read more

*please read my previous review now since this is an update* Last night i pulled an all-nighter and was hungry as hell. I was so tempted to lurk in the middle of the night to MIA Halal Food on Junction Boulevard for a lamb over rice plate. But then I realized i didn't really want that type of spice and decided to be a good boy. As for today, I was a bad boy.....*WOOF~!!!* I woke up this morning and the first thing on my mind was *TASTY~~~.* I was in the mood for Mexican, but didn't feel like driving to Jackson Heights and dealing with the parking situation or the insane gas prices involved with that type of mission. Since the weather was nice, I strolled over to Fresh Soft Tacos... This is my plate: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/fQw2GlDqPgAZYn948BAxiw?select=3MJcwEGj8V0n7c6F_c3-9A 1) damage: $5.75 after tax 2) C2 combination: with only chili. I'm not feeling chicken these days unless it's fried 3) no lettuce: not feeling shredded lettuce these days 4) two tortillas are provided 5) no soda: I don't drink soda much. I asked the lady to give me more sauce instead. Usually you get 1 sour cream and 1 mild sauce. She gave me 3 sour cream and 2 mild sauces (I'm Chinese and need sauce for my rice!) 6) red beans: first time trying it and i think i prefer the black beans instead. I wish i knew which types of beans both are though... DISCLAIMER: I am not a bean-toligst! Summary: Previously i gave them 4 stars and I think overall they are. But once you try the different items and learn how to customize your lunch special to your individual taste, the rating is 5 star caliber for sure. The items here are fresh and of higher quality than Taco Bell. For the amount of food you get, it's a better value too. Trust me as my arm was cramping up while i lugged the huge box of food home. I hereby declare a.....*VALUE ALERT~!!!* read more

I love the tacos here. They're so nice and affordable. The chili tacos are the best, but I also like to get the steak and chicken fajitas from time to time. I don't like eating onions, so if I request that they take the onions out of their fajitas, they'll accomodate me. They give you a decent amount of salsa, and even upon delivery, the person on the other end is very nice and helpful. Best taco place in New York City, in my opinion. read more

Tex-Mex? Fine. Authentic Mex? Go to Roosevelt Ave. For what it is in Rego Park, its fine. Chinese owners like most of the Tex Mex restaurants. But theres just something about Chinese people trying to make Mexican food. Reminds me of when I went to Cancun, where the Mexican staff made Italian and Thai food on the resort. Tastes fine for fast food, definitely better than the terrible Mc. Donalds Express on Saunders St. But if you really want authentic Mexican, go to Roosevelt Ave and pick from any restaurant there. read more

A man (or woman, for that matter) is nothing without their dependable neighborhood takeout place but when I want something different than the usual Chinese food, this casual, unpretentious Tex-Mex place fits the bill. Forget the fact that they're actually run by Chinese owners and that the only effort toward ethnic authenticity in this place are the two sombreros and the painting of a flamenco dancer hanging on the wall. You don't come here for cultural studies; you come when you want fast, cheap food. I've never waited more than five minutes for my order, and that's even with the time it takes to grind out the flour tortillas, which are made fresh to order. The menu seems to cover all of the appropriate Mexican food cravings - tacos, burritos, quesadillas, nachos, over-rice dishes, and tostada salads. Special combo meals, which start at around $7, include at least one protein, 2 fresh tortillas, rice, your choice of beans, lettuce, tomato, salsa, and sour cream. During my last visit, I ordered the mixed vegetable combo and found it fine for a meal, if a little bland. The 'vegetable mix' was a slightly over-steamed and under-salted variety of broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and mushrooms, but with the addition of salsa and seasoned yellow rice, it was more than decent. My meat-eating fiancé found his entrees far more interesting, so it would seem that the vegetarian options (which are denoted on the menu with a red star) have almost been added as an afterthought. Still, we've been more than happy with the prices and the speed with which the food comes out. Another surprising perk is the television mounted in the eatery, so that dining in amongst the humble and faux Mexican décor doesn't seem nearly as unthinkable a prospect. read more

Taco Place - Mixed vegetable combo - Tex-Mex Near Me - Rego Park, New York

Did you know?... that Mexican food is the most popular ethnic cuisine in the United States? I didn't either but this fact is boldly printed on the front of Taco Place's paper menu. The menu also boasts soft tacos that are made in-house, for whatever that's worth. I've tried many tex-mex places in my lifetime and this one is pretty solid. Their burritos and combo specials are all quite good. I most recently ordered the steak combination, which comes with rice, sliced steak, black beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and two grilled flour tortillas. Their food is tasty without being over salted. The steak was actually pretty tender, unlike the steak at some other take-out places that I've tried. The portions are just enough to leave me content without giving me that crazy itis that makes me want to pass out. The place seems fairly clean and even has a big screen TV, which is the first I've seen in any take-out joint. Their service is friendly and prompt, also a plus. I believe this place was formerly known as Fresh Soft Tacos, as there is another listing on yelp with the same address. Now it's called Taco Place (not Palace). In an area replete with take-out options and restaurants, these guys are definitely a go-to for a quick and delicious bite. read more

I have never had worse Mexican food in my life I'm pretty positive this isn't made by anyone Mexican because I've never tasted anything that came from Mexico that was so BLAND. Boyfriend ordered a quesadilla sincronizada for $5. It is literally two little taco tortillas with minimal cheese and then meat. All the tacos we ordered barely came with cheese. We even pulled out a cheese grater and some cubed cheese to add some flavor. I won't be ordering from here again. Waste of money, ended up pulling out crackers to have crackers and cheese for dinner. They deliver fast, but only because it's crappy food, so how long could it really take to make? read more

Edit: the delivery came in 14 minutes on a rainy day today. I love the Spanish delivery man- he's the best! --- I love the delivery man at this place. So friendly. And the food is good and cheap. My go to food when I'm studying. I retract my previous email. Really, the delivery man deserves extra tips :) read more

There' was like a heat wave here in New York today...35 degrees.. wow...nice day to go out..run some errands... since it was my day off.. I took advantage of the "good" weather....Went to Marshalls in Queens Boulevard..and browsed thru the racks....nice sale going on there...got myself a black jacket and 3 nice shitrs. and a Pizza bakewear.. ..must have been there for quite sometime..didn't notice the time..until my hunger pangs began to bother me.,...Opps..2:30 pm ...time for some chow... Ended up at this Tex-Mex express called Fresh Soft Tacos...I had one of there specials...Grilled Chicken & Steak.served with 2 FreshTortillas, Mexican Rice, Black Beans, Lettuce,Tomato,Salsa Ranchera & Sour Cream...all for $5.29.... and it was surprisingly very tasty and really delicious......I hope somebody will open one in the Sutphin area where I work....it would be a nice change from the usual deli....chinese food....Latno restaurant around. The Chicken Quesadilla and Chicken Fajita looked good too. I'll order that next time I'll go and shop around the area again........... read more

You really can't go wrong with this place. Typical Tex-Mex Chinese restaurant that I've been coming to for years: a great Rego Park stalwart over the past 20 years or so. I can't speak of the delivery since I only live a couple of blocks away, but the food is very consistent. You know what you're getting when you order. I love that you can still get a decent meal for under $4 (rice and chicken). I'm a big fan of the steak-and-chicken burrito, and I also like the tacos. Fajitas are on call if I'm looking more for the soft taco feel. Nachos are good too, but like any other cheese-based food, you should eat it right away before it gets cold. The one huge knock on this place for those who come in to order: not the friendliest staff. I think I'm being kind here. They look at their customers with disdain, and they really want you out as soon as you order. I don't think it's coincidence that you have a place that makes good food, but nearly all empty tables. That's one whole entire star right there. Other than that, you really can't find a better place like this around here. It's a good place to pick up food if you're not in the cooking mood after work. read more

The food is good quality compared to their inexpensive pricing. It is definitely a take out place then a stay in place. The owners are not the nicest if you ask for extra sauce because of course they would like to charge you for it. I guess it comes with the cheaper pricing, but the food was great. From $20 bucks, two people can eat like a royalty. Meaning you will get really full! read more

Cheap and tasty, cannot go wrong with this place. Great for quick lunches. Also, lightning fast delivery! I've ordered for lunch a few times, and the food is literally here in ten minutes after I place my order. Granted, I do live near the area, but even compared to other nearby places, the delivery is unbelievably fast!!! read more

I used to go here on my 3o min lunch break,and it was 3blocks away, I would always make it back on time even with time to spare! I heart this place, they are super quick, and tasty. Its the best Mexican food you can get from a from a Chinese restaurant. Its not Nobu, but its a great quick place to stop and grab a bite. read more

Decent Tex-Mex place in Rego Park Honestly like everyone else was saying the service is pretty rude, the counter lady was abrupt, while the guy behind her was just kind of posted up there...well then. The hard shell is not recommended since it crumbles real fast, but I really like the soft shell tacos which are warm and nice. The prices are also very reasonable too. Legit this would be a much more popular place if the people behind the counter actually acted like they want ur money. read more

I love this place. It's run like a mom-pop store. It's always risky when it comes to Mexican food due to freshness of food, but I can vouch that everything here is moderately fresh tasting. Whenever I come here I get the classic Chili Taco (Ground Beef) with a side of guacamole. They give you chili and sour cream on the side for free usually if you ask for it. At, $1.59 a taco, it make this a bargain. (same price as a taco from taco bell) My friend usually gets a salad of some sort, usually taco/beef salad and I imagine it's good because he gets the same thing almost every time. Will always come here if I pass by. Best tex mex in the area. Cash only. Closed Sunday. read more

First of all, I don't think some people realize that Tex-Mex and Mexican food are not the same thing. Once you get past thinking that you're going to find authentic Mexican food in these places, you'll be fine. I have to say, I have always enjoyed Tex-Mex and this place is a fine example of what it's all about. If you have a chance to stop in, your food will be ready in about a minute and a half in most cases, so if you're really hungry and don' t feel like waiting long for food, try this place. I really enjoy the platters that include chicken/beef, rice, a choice of beans, guacamole, sour cream, salsa ranchera, 2 flour tortillas and a can of soda. You can get all of that for under six bucks and everything tastes really fresh. Sometimes the tomatoes are not as ripe as I would like them to be, but I don't really go there for the tomatoes. Only thing is that they are closed on Sundays. read more

I've lived here for about 20 years and this is my favorite takeout. The place surprises you because it doesn't look like much but the food is fantastic. Good burritos, absolutely huge. The highlight is the Pork Chop combination and the quesadilla's, steak or chicken. Combine with the sour cream and it's absolutely delicious! For something quick, simple, cheap that's actually good it's my favorite place. It's run by Chinese people so I don't know how authentic it is but pay no attention, the only thing that matters is if the food is good and the place is clean. Yes and a yes. Top it off with being affordable it gets 5 Stars. Love this place! read more

This is probably the best Tex Mex around here. Taco King and Express Soft Taco isn't up to par with Taco Place. I don't know if their food is authentic Mexican food. What I do know is that if you want shareable delicious portions at a cheap price, look no further. I ordered their burritos a couple of times and find them to be quite filling and delicious. Most places are cheap with meat portions, but not Taco Place. I also had their black bean taco and found the black beans creamy and tasty. The Tostada Salads are very crispy. If you order by phone and come pick it up, the chef won't put the fillings inside until you are ready to pick up your food. He does this so that the filling doesn't make the crispy shell soggy while you are on your way to pick up the food. Place is clean and is more suited for take out than dine in. Finding parking nearby can be a challenge. -1 star because they are so cheap when giving salsa and sour cream. Tostada salads come with thousand island dressing, which isn't a great complement. read more

It a typical Tex Mex place when it comes to food but the staff is really nice and super quick if you ordering in store or for delivery

This is a great fast-foodish Tex-Mex place. Their soft tacos smells really good and feels so nice and warm! The rice and beans aren't that special, a little on the dry side, but not bad at all. They fast and efficient, food is great, price is right. Can't complain! read more

This place is ok!! To begin with this area lacks food variety. I think the only other "mexican" food is about 15-20 blocks away (don't hold me to that figure!) The fajitas are good but thats because I love peppers and onions but the chicken is ok, the rice in the combination platter is meh!! (rice cooker rice) the beans are meh although I personally like their black over their pinto and the tex-mex chili has flavor. Overall if you go here bring cash, you cant go wrong with the tacos; but if your hungry and on a budget then the combination platter is your best bet. For $5.79 you get your meat of choice with the exception of pork (i usually get the C2 which is tex-mex chili & chicken; rice/beans/lettuce/tomatoe/salsa/sour cream/2 flour tourtillas (i dont eat them). read more

Monday Night Football means serious Munchies.....these guys deliver the pigskin.... In Rego Park, watching football, and trying too keep on a budget, while still enjoying the game and drinking beer......this is the quarterback sneak..... chicken fajitas....chicken quesadillas.....three of each plus fiery hot sauce.....20 bucks....that is a recovered fumble is a ever saw one...... Seriously though.....good food delivered fast.....cant ask for more more.... I love this place..... read more

This taco joint is pretty decent. The order comes fast and is prepared well in an open kitchen, which was clean and well run. They could probably put a bit more shrimp in the shrimp burrito, but hey, all in all, not bad. The lady at the counter seemed a little uninterested, but she may have just been tired. She`s only human, too, folks. Fresh Soft Tacos.... I'M IN! read more

Consistently very good food and fast delivery service! I always go for the usual chicken with guacamole platter with extra jalapenos and I seriously can never get tired of it! Continue doing what you're doing! read more

the other Chexican place in Rego Park closed a few months back, so I've been relying on these guys. mmm, Chexican food. it's all about the platters for me. 6 bucks for 2 tortillas, your choice of meat(s), rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, and a can of soda. the nachos are decent. the chimichangas are excellent hangover cures. just saying. cheap and delicious! gotta love Chexican food! read more

Ordered dinner from here one night and food was delivered extremely quick. I was actually shocked at how fast the food was ready, until I opened the bag. They sent my food with just rice and guacamole and forgot the meet. Never ordering from here. read more

ok, I tried the grilled Chicken and steak, C 7. And the verdict is. Good, with Pinto beans. And I always do a taco with the works. Guy gets to my house somehow. on his bike he delivers. But, it's warm on arrival. The chicken is a bit tough sometimes.. But, I crave it sometimes read more

Great value, terrific food. I love their pinto bean products!

Oh lord, seriously some of the best mexican food i've ever had. Easily the best mexican food from an ex-chinese restaurant that just one day changed formats because Mexican food was rated the #1 ethnic food in some national study. Nicest people, really quick delivery when I lived in Rego Park and I really really miss this place. The homemade tortillas made to order is the key and it's really cheap. God bless this place, a tear comes to my eye thinking of how much I miss it. read more
