Really delicious tacos and burritos but I think the tacos are far superior to those of other places. I love the brisket burrito and that what I always get. I have never dined in though. read more

I'm back! Again, everything is fresh! From the taco, the burrito bowls, chips & salsa. We ordered it to go and within 10 minutes we had our food to go! The clerk was helpful and friendly. The restaurant is small but clean. If you want fresh tasting food for a reasonable price, stop in like I have. I've visited Reat read more

Ummmmmmmm... it wasn't my favorite.... My mom enjoyed her quesadilla with a rate of 5/10. She said she preferred chipotles quesadilla . And I got sick from my burrito, it wasn't in my stomach that long if yk what I mean. I'm sorry to post this, just a bit disappointed. Definitely form your own opinion but that was just mine. Also, I felt like the whole way home my car smelled like a dirty McDonald's like if they fried their food in old grease or something. Like I did not smell the "good food" whatsoever. Sorry guys read more

The food is excellent. Last time we went on a Friday afternoon the line was literally out the door. Interior could be larger, but it has an authentic feel read more

Excellent tacos. I LOVE that they double wrap the corn tortillas because most places they break immediately and then it's a mess. And the prices are excellent. I will be back soon! read more

Back today for a slightly delayed lunch (i.e., 1:30PM). There was a staff person named Victoria working. She was extremely efficient and took our order in a timely manner. After the lunch crowd had departed and we were the only customers, we spoke with her for a few minutes. It turned out that today was her first day working here! (She is from Argentina). She is clearly a self starter and was cleaning all the table and dumping the trash with no one else around. read more

Nice people. Fast service brought lists of customers. Food was good. We liked our 3 tacos (fish, chicken, and birria), burrito bowl, cheese and chips. Really I have no constructive comments. read more

We had not tried Taco Zocalo in Sterling due to the negative reviews on Yelp, but when the Reston California Tortilla closed, we started trying other nearby places. With low expectations going in, we were pleasantly surprised by Taco Zocalo. And, also surprised to see a former Cal Tort staff member behind the counter. This isn't a fancy place. It is a strip mall Taco store next to a 7-11. But, it was clean, the menu had all the usuals/standard, the prices were not outrageous and we thought the quality of our meals was good. I tried the quesadilla and my wife had a burrito bowl. Both were prepared to order in a reasonable amount of time, tasty and appropriate portions (similar to other area taco joints). We agreed it was better than we expected, and we would be back to try other menu options. Admittedly, we are not "taco connoisseurs," so I will defer to other reviews about "authenticity and tradition".... but for a chain taco place, we had no complaints. (sorry, no pictures this time) read more

I was in Mexico a month ago and every time I was getting tacos over there, I kept thinking how in the heck is Taco Zocalo back home tasting better than most Mexican tacos?? I eventually found a great taco place in Mexico but Taco Zocalo still beats most of them. I cannot recommend this place enough. Every time I'm craving tacos, it's Taco Zocalo time for me. Taco Bamba, Bar Taco, nah nah. It's Taco Zocalo! Insert Drake meme here. The downside of tacos being so good here is that I don't know what else on their menu is good LOL Note that the one by Wiehle Ave is the OG place. There have been a few branches opened since they are doing so well. I've been getting tacos at the OG place for years now and it tastes the best in my opinion. The new branches are great too but the OG place always takes it up a notch consistently. The place is quite small so if you're planning to dine in, it may or may not have open tables. However, know that people usually pick up or get delivered most of the time. My go-to order is a three-taco combo with 1 steak and 2 fish. I switch between flour and corn tortillas from time to time. I like them both. Don't forget to get the chips and salsa. The salsa here is out of this world. Pair it all with tamarind soda! You must know that pictures cannot represent very well the way they taste. You just have to try it. Did I forget to mention it's CHEAP? read more

Delicious and halal. If you like Mexican food, particularly tacos and all the fixings you will love their tacos

Great food,definitely coming here again,and food was hot,service is amazing and it's very quaint.

Looking for Mexican food led us to Taco Zocalo; we have lived in Reston over a year but never knew about this restaurant. The ambiance is small and plain, tables and chairs with plastic utensils. The food was what was so very good! First the chips and guacamole were fresh, not stale. I ordered the veggie burrito bowl, my spouse ordered 2 chicken tacos. Both were really good; the waitress even came over to ask if I wanted tomatoes and onions added to the order. The meal was delivered quickly to our table, but then no one bothered us to leave early. Next time we will place an order and bring it home as the dining area was small and crowded. Otherwise, a very good experience. read more

Honestly the food was really delicious. Husband loved his burrito . I loved my chimichanga & the birria tacos/ steak taco were good. Not amazing but good. Anyways what turned me off was the hair pieces we found in our food. Look like small straight black hairs like you'd find on a dog or so.. just ruined our appetite. I found multiple too. We just told them the first one and they exchanged it just fine. But service was good. Just hoping to not find hair in our food next time read more

The tortillas for the tacos were very thick and it was very dry. The chips and salsa was very good. The burrito bowl was good as well. The price was reasonable. read more

My daughter loves birria tacos - but not the easiest to find and can be pricey. They have birria tacos on Sundays, so we had to come - bonus, at very reasonable prices. NOTE, YELP HOURS ARE WRONG, THEY ARE OPEN ON SUNDAYS. Everything was very authentic, nothing fancy, just real good Mexican food. The stuffed churros were wonderful, one of the best I've tasted. The salsa a bit salty, otherwise, no complaints, we'll definitely be back! read more

This place stays crowded lunchtime and after work hours because they have great deals on their delicious food. This place is kept very tidy. You can dine in or sit just outside. They even deliver individual meals or even deliver catering packages once ordered ahead of time. Business meeting meals they got u covered just be careful to notify them how many will be attending the meeting. Fortunately everyone will want a second round or two from this place. They have two locations that I know of. Both locations deliver quality service, great food and cleanliness. read more

I have loved this place since it opened but I have to be realistic here. Their expansion has been the downfall of their quality. The biggest complaint is the new corn tortillas they use. They just are not good. What used to be the best corn tortillas are now my least favorite. They used to yellow. They are now orange. They used to grill them which just made the taco experience the best, now they don't. And the corn tortillas are now soft and squishy and even fall apart when not grilled and when I asked to have the corn tortillas specially grilled they became very tough and chewy which ruins the whole experience. I am sad. I do not want gringo flour tortillas. Double sad. Triple sad is that the tacos are now smaller than they used to be. Boo! Additionally, the meats which were once so tasty and succulent are now dry and almost tasteless. read more

Came here for lunch on a weekend and it pretty busy, we got the last table available. I ordered the lunch special which I don't think is worth since it's around the same price as 3 tacos and the beans and rice aren't super large. I think that 3 tacos would have been better. The tacos themselves were pretty great though. I got the steak and the chicken since that's what I usually get and both were excellent read more

Taco Zocalo - Mexican Near Me - Reston, Virginia

I go past this place every day so I decided it's time to give it a try. I get a feeling the land will be seized by the county for more overpriced condos so I thought the time is now. I had a few friends with me so it was a taco fest at out table. I ordered the barbacoa three taco combo with no tomatoes or guacamole. I also grabbed a Victoria beer in a bottle from the cooler. The order came out pretty fast. The tacos didn't have much in terms of meat or toppings. The shells looked about half empty. I understand shortages but seriously for $4 per taco more meat/ toppings could have been put in the shell. No price for the bottles of beer and I guess the $6 a bottle would scare some folks off. I was still hungry when I left. I guess I'm more used to a bigger selection of toppings and a fuller taco. Definitely try this place out. See what you think. read more

Taco Zocalo - Barbacoa taco three pack. - Mexican Near Me - Reston, Virginia

Located in a nondescript brick building, Taco Zocalo is a very popular spot for lunch. When we arrived a little after 10:30 am, there was only one other customer. By the time we left an hour later, there was a sizable lunch rush and the small dining area was filling up. The service was efficient and my Birria tacos were brought to my table pretty quickly. The shredded beef and lamb was accompanied nicely by the broth. Take note, it seems this menu item is only served on certain days (Tuesdays and Sundays according to the receipt). read more

Taco Zocalo - 2 Birria Tacos served Tuesdays and Sundays - Mexican Near Me - Reston, Virginia

I hereby declare thee, Taco Zocalo, a magnificent and deletable location for lunch gatherings. Why you may ask? While the establishment may be humble in its appearance, the food options here are superb. Upon my arrival, I pondered over the menu for at least 3 minutes. Shall I get tacos? Perhaps a burrito? And then... there it was... a chimichanga. While the others employed by the same company as I decide to get tacos, I defy the norm, stand out among the peasants, and order a chimichanga. Ordered to-go, I anxiously await to try this delightful dish the whole car ride back to the office. The elevator could not move fast enough. My stomach was rumbling in anticipation. Once I am seated, I open my to-go container and there it is in all its glory. A beautifully fried (but not oily) chimichanga. The heavens parted and a single beam of light shone upon it - perfectly constructed. The knife glides through the slight crunch of the fried tortilla and inside are divine layers of pulled beef and cheese. Sensational seasonings and a healthy portion of meat - I was nothing but satisfied with my choice. From this point on, I will be sending out a petition to change the name of this undertaking to "Chimichanga Zocalo". Those who are with me, say "I"! read more

Went for the first time two weeks ago and tried the chicken and beef chimichangas- and they were sooo good we couldn't wait to go back- went back today and we both got the beef chimichangas - but sadly we couldn't finish them because they were wayyyy too salty. Not sure if a different chef made this batch or what but we were really really salty - very disappointed since there is no other decent Mexican food around.... read more

Nachos: Picture this. It's my wedding day. I am about to walk down the aisle and join my fiancé at the altar, as we begin our new life together. It's one of those moments in life I know will replay in my head before I die. It's the. moment, the most special moment of my life. I couldn't be more excited. The doors open, time slows down, "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon starts playing in the background. All eyes are on me, every emotion is heightened, I've never felt so alive. I lock eyes with my soon-to-be-husband, and begin making my way towards him, towards our new beginning. I make my way to him, we join hands, and the officiant we hired from Craigslist begins the ceremony. As he begins, my fiancé and I are beaming with excitement, and we chuckle as the officiant routinely asks "does anyone object to this uni-", but suddenly, and shockingly, he gets interrupted by a familiar voice in the crowd. Sudden gasps emerge from the crowd. In panic, I drop my fiancés hands, and my eyes search the room for the voice that made my heart stop. It's him... it's my first love, my first spicy toxic relationship, it's the one that got away. It's the plate of nachos from Taco Zocalo. He repeats "I object", and it echoes across the room, across my heart, and shatters the reality of the present moment. Tears rush down my face as I look my fiancé in the eyes, he knows... he knows I'll never love him the same way. I utter a staggered "I'm.. sorry..", I pick up my 2004 Vera Wang gown and I make a run for it. A run towards the one I always wanted. The crowd rises in uproar and disbelief, but none of it gets to me. "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon plays again, the adrenaline rush blurs out the chaos around me, and the only sight I am focused on is the plate of nachos from Taco Zocalo infront of me. I run into his arms, I kiss him and he tastes like homemade mango habanero sauce. I have found my forever love. We escape from reality, we kiss in the rain, and we find the nearest courthouse to join in unholy matrimony. All else: work wife said these were the best tacos she's had in a while and I couldn't agree more. Everything was cooked to perfection. The staff ladies were super sweet. The food here is worth all your money. read more

Picked up dinner from here last night and was BLOWN AWAY by how good it was! They are clearly popular, so it can be a bit of a wait for pickup, but staff was friendly and clearly doing their best.

Amazing, speedy and consistent. I have been to Taco Zocalo many times and typically get the three tacos (2 beef barbacoa and 1 chicken tinga) on soft corn tortillas (each taco has two layers of tortillas). The tacos are always packed full of toppings and the meat is well cooked. Other food options like their bowls and elotes are both taste great. Additionally they are very good with food allergies. read more

Taco Zocalo - It was chicken One Taco; shrimp Two Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Reston, Virginia

Taco Zocalo is an easy to miss local taco shop. It is located in an unassuming office building. The inside is small but I have been able to get a table each time. Do know that it gets pretty busy during workday lunch time. The beef barbacoa taco is my personal favorite. The tacos are a bit pricey but they do have good toppings on them. Personally I will order a side or some chips with my meal, or I will get hungry after. read more

Taco Zocalo - Two Taco Special - Mexican Near Me - Reston, Virginia

Ok I had to see what all the fuss was about. Came by for lunch take-out since I was in the area. Got two 3-taco meals to go: all steak for my husband, and 1 each fish/steak/chicken tinga for me. (It was Tuesday and I wanted to try the Birria special but they only let you order in 2s/3s, so I couldn't just get one to try! Bummer!). Verdict: skip the steak. It was gray and flavorless, cooked to total death. I took a bite and fed the rest to my dog, I'm not even kidding. It was gross. The chicken tinga was ok, but again really overcooked to the point that I didn't even know I was eating chicken. The fish was very good, though. That one I would get again. Chips were pretty good, salsa is super chunky like a pico de gallo type. Also a B+. Service was very fast. No one in line ahead of me at 12 noon on a weekday, and I didn't wait long for my order. That was a plus. I'd like to come back and try the Birria since a) I've never had it before; and b) Yelpers seem to rave about it. I'd also try maybe a burrito bowl or a Chimichanga, just so I could have a few things to compare. But for this visit, it was a bit of a swing and a miss for me. read more
