We wanted good tacos for lunch and this place came highly recommended by a person I work with…read more We were not disappointed. The tacos and queso were very good. Next time, we may try the guacamole, since everything seems to be made fresh. We got four different tacos and each one was excellent. Especially the birria taco with the beef consommé. I could have eaten a bowl of the consommé like it was soup, it was so good. The food came out quickly and all the workers were very friendly. We will definitely be back to try more tacos and some of their other dishes.

We tried Taco Prime today and got a whole array of tacos like the asada tacos, campechano taco,…read morepicana taco, ribeye taco, pretty tacos, camaron taco and pescado taco. Out of all of those, the only one I liked was the pretty taco and the only ones my husband liked were the picana and the pretty taco. The regular asada, campechano and ribeye tacos were mediocre but very dry. The camaron and pescado tacos were absolutely awful. The pescado especially. Upon opening the box containing the two tacos, you could smell a very strong fish odor which typically only happens when fish isn't fresh. The shrimp are made from previously frozen shrimp and not fresh shrimp, you can tell by the texture of it when you're chewing. The fish taco was just absolutely terrible. I couldn't endure more than 2 bites of it. The entire thing just tasted off. The portion of that taco was huge though so if someone is able to get past the taste and smell of it, it will definitely be filling. I just couldn't even stomach it further than I already have. I wish I didn't start off with the seafood tacos because I feel like they possibly ruined the taste of the rest of them for me.

I have a new food spot! My colleagues suggested that we go for lunch and I am glad we did. When I…read morefirst walked in I went to the counter to order. Once you order, they give you a buzzer and then bring your food to the table. They have a beverage and utensils station. There is plenty of seating. I love the casual theme. Speaking of my order, I had The Threesome. It comes with green chile queso (has a little spice), guacamole, and your choice of salsa. All of them were really flavorful. The cips that comes with it was really fresh and tasty. I also had the Trailer Park. It is loaded with flavorful fried chicken, green chiles, lettuce, pico de gallo, mixed cheese with poblano sauce on a flour tortilla...so so good! the cashier recommended it to me because it was my first time there. The other taco I had was the Chicken Fajita. It is marinated and grilled chicken, grilled onions and peppers, pico de gallo, mixed cheese with tomatillo salsa on a flour tortilla. I also want to add that they have a full bar and tvs. It would be a cool spot to watch the game. They also have a drive thru! Now that excited me, lol! So you know what that means....I will be back!

I was in the mood for #TacoTuesday and popped into Torchys. I actually placed my order online to…read moretake advantage of the menu special. It came with 2 tacos, chips, salsa, and a drink. I could add queso for $2 more and I did. The food was good and was ready fairly quickly. The part I did not like was I had to go inside to pick up my food, but I was not greeted not even acknowledged for about 5 minutes. The problem is people came in after me got there food before me. I hate terrible customer service. Also there weren't any tops at the vending machine, and the cashier made faces as if it was an issue to do her job. Not sure what the issue is/was, but overall that made me not want to return!

I really liked it back in the day when TE offered $0.99 chicken tacos. But hey, inflation affects…read moreeverything amiright? Well, $1.50 chicken tacos with great chips and salsa is still a deal. TE offers marinated carrots, radish, cucumbers and an array of sauces to top your food. TE just isn't about tacos either, they offer dozens of tasty dishes. Be sure to enjoy your food with a delicious Mexican Coca Cola or Tapatio. Be wary though, some of these peppers are hot!!!

Dined here on a Saturday around 12 PM. The drive-thru was busy as usual--this spot is open 24…read morehours, and there's always a steady flow of people coming through for their tacos. This was my first time dining inside, and I'm glad I decided to. The front counter staff didn't greet me when I walked in, but they were friendly when taking my order. The menu is extensive, with plenty of options like fish, shrimp, tacos, chimichangas, sopes, quesadillas, breakfast burritos, and even chicken nuggets for kids. Everything is clearly listed in English and easy to read, which makes ordering simple. They have a self-serve area with chips, salsa, cucumbers, and carrots, which I liked. After placing your order at the counter, they give you a number to take to your table. My food came out in about 10 minutes, and it was good as always. Overall, a solid spot with lots of variety and quick service. I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

tl;dr - Awesome tacos, reasonable price, food truck setups, DO NOT PASS THEM UP!…read more I'm no stranger to tacos, and my stint in SoCal around the San Diego area for a few years only solidified this. That said, the quest for a good taco never ends; however, it has ended for me in the Memphis area. I can say, with no exception, when I want a taco, Taco N'ganas is my JAM. I've been to very literally all of them, because, when the craving hits, the call must be heeded. I can say that they all have virtually no difference in food quality. Some are easier to get in and out of than others, and some have more parking than others, but neither of those would sway me in driving to one over the other or opting to "wait" if I were nearby a specific location. One thing I will say, if you special order tacos, especially to-go, give it a quick peep to make sure all is as it should be. The couple of times I've ordered (correctly) online and things haven't been as was ticketed, the folks working the location were quick to fix it. Now, the good stuff... The burritos and quesadillas are the size of your head, so bring an appetite (or a friend) for those beasts. The tacos...the tacos are another thing, entirely. The street tacos are your standard street tacos size, and STUFFED with the protein of your choosing - again, a "taco Connie Asado," so I've tried them all and they are all good, depending on your mood/taste - I go with barbacoa/birria and/or al pastor. Then, there are the taco n'ganas, which are similar to the street tacos, but elevated to the stratosphere. There are cooked more like you would see traditional birria tacos prepared - dipped in a yummy consomé and seared on the flattop until the oerfect balance of crispy and soft...again, stuffed with ample protein of your choosing. They are all food truck setups, so while they have seating, it'll be bottled beverages sitting outside, unless you get it to-go. Honestly, the setups are always well-appointed and clean, so I don't see that as an issue - even with the heat and humidity of the summer months upon us and forthcoming. If you aren't hungry yet and on your way to one of their locations around town, then we aren't going to be friends. If you're still with me, why aren't you on your way to one of their locations to satisfy your NEED for some of the best tacos you'll put in your face?! You can thank me by supporting this local gem.

Food is epic. Service impeccable. Nice and clean outside. Food was HOT and fresh. The pollo tacos…read morewere absolutely delicious -- bursting with bold, authentic flavor and freshness in every bite. The chicken was perfectly marinated and grilled to a tender, juicy finish, then tucked into soft, warm tortillas that held everything together beautifully. Each taco had the ideal balance of spice, zest, and crunch -- simple but unforgettable. Freshly warmed corn tortillas * Diced white onions * Chopped cilantro * Fresh lime wedges * A light sprinkle of queso fresco * Optional toppings: sliced avocado, pico de gallo, or a drizzle of creamy chipotle

I've been waiting for a place like this for a long time. I've missed northwestern Mexican cuisine…read moresince I stopped working in the west seven years ago. Elena's carne asada is awesome - the burrito is tops. Their flour tortillas are not the gross Mission tortillas that most Mexican places in Memphis use, so their burritos and quesadillas are great. Their sauces are perfect. The hot red sauce makes you crave for more, even though you're burning up. Sometimes you have to make sure the drive through hears you correctly - queso sounds an awful lot like quesadilla I guess. But overall I haven't had a bad meal there and I eat their food about twice a week.

Let me just start off by saying Elena's is extremely underrated. The food was good, staff was…read morefriendly, and food came out quickly. Everytime I pass by Elena's there is never anyone in there but there is dine in and to go available and they have a drive thru. The chips are homemade and delicious. I truly recommend for Cali style Mexican.

I still can't stop thinking about the sauce station here. There's a private parking lot shared with the surrounding businesses, and the restaurant has around 15 tables inside. It is a good casual spot if you are looking to dine here. FOOD: This restaurant does not serve complimentary chips and salsa. It is $2.95 an order. 1. Torta Villa Carbon (4/5; marinated grilled chicken topped with grilled onions, grilled pineapple, melted cheese, jalapeños, and avocado): This was huge. I ended up saving half for lunch the next day. The combination of sweet and savory flavors worked really well together. 2. Campechano Burrito (4/5; steak strips and chorizo with rice, beans, lettuce, onion, tomato, and jalapeño): Steak and chorizo are always a winning combination, and this burrito did not disappoint. 3. Chirucas Chimichanga (4/5; two medium chimichangas stuffed with rice, beans, cheese dip, and your choice of meat, served with lettuce, pico de gallo, and sour cream): I chose the grilled marinated pork (al pastor), which was flavorful and satisfying. The server mentioned that the chicken version is their favorite. The service was decent overall, though it could be slow at times. I noticed a few tables waiting a while before servers came to take orders or refill drinks, and my drink was empty for a bit before getting a refill. Dinner service can get very busy, as every table was once full in one of my visits. Would I come back? Absolutely.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!!…read more I ate here as a child and when my parents moved back to the area it was still there! Now when my family goes to visit we have to eat there at least 3 times. Their sopapillas are my childhood favorite dessert and no others have ever been able to replace them. We will be down visiting in 3 weeks and already talking about our first meal at El Toro :) See you soon!!!!

Booya's does a great job making delicious food customized for you. You go to the counter to place…read moreyour order and select your toppings as they make it. Guacamole costs extra. It's one place that doesn't skimp on filling a taco if you only want meat inside without any other contents. What can be improved is that their fresh-brewed teas are tossed well BEFORE closing time thus check before you pay for a drink if you're within 30-40 minutes of close. I personally don't drink soda fountain drinks thus no other options were available besides their free water. Tip: Save some money by bringing back a clean Booya's cup(s) for a discounted refill price on your next visit.
