Taco Trio with Rice & Beans
Melissa B.

After 3 years of living in Grand Rapids, I finally tried the infamous Tacos El Cunado! I went for a Friday lunch with my coworkers. They have a pretty good amount of seating and we pretty much could choose anywhere to sit when we got there around 12 but it definitely got much busier as our lunch went on. I like that they have the taco trio option and you are able to choose what meat you want for each taco. I got al pastor, pollo, and asada. All super tasty! There was not one I preferred more than the other. The rice and beans were good as well. The color of the beans definitely kinda scared me at first because they were basically orange but it tasted just as you'd expect refried beans to taste. Can't wait to come back here! Food was served quick. Also good price for the chips and guacamole to start. Love their different salsas at the table.

Lime and onions

Upon entering everyone was extremely friendly. Both guests and the people working. It felt like a family or perhaps like Cheers where everyone knows your name. It's easy to see why this place is so popular. It didn't take long for them to get insanely packed either and it was close to closing which is 11pm and not midnight. I arrived a good 30 minutes before 11pm and placed a to go order. For my meal I decided to try a few things, so that I could get a real feel for what they had to offer. This lead to two steak tacos, a steak tostada meal, and a steak burrito. The steak taco was moist and full of flavor. There was the perfect amount of spice. Although someone who is not use to authentic might be a bit skittish. The burrito was near perfection with flavor. Moist and spice with everything nice inside. The tostada was extremely flavorful, but I horrible mess. All together I would eat here again and highly recommend it. The price was worth it and as a bonus they have glass bottles for jarritos.

A genuine hole in the wall. Three Tripa tacos for around ~10 dollars. The burritos are okay, tacos are better.

Onions, jalapeno
Joel E.

Waiter was not nice, side onions and jalapenos were cold. When I asked my waitress she was not helpful. My wife and friends were looking forward to this place but the waitress attitude killed our mood. She told us that their Onions and Jalapenos are cooked and kept in a can for future use. They're not fresh, makes me wonder about other things. I wouldn't recommend this place. We came a few years back, and things changed. One would think that with pandemic owners would do their best to keep customers. Definitely not coming back. There's other better Mexican tacos restaurants.

I gave them 5 stars on google but I just felt motivated to rate again. The food is perfect and quick every time. Affordable authentic Mexican food that tastes homemade. Plenty of space to sit inside where you will get served and they just re did their parking lot last year. I've been coming here for lunch almost twice a week for the last two years or so as it's on the same back road where I work. Comes in tinfoil with all the fixings, limes, onions and salsas without even asking for it, every time.

Quesadilla
Rozana A.

Heard decent things about this location, decided to give it a try. Complete regret. My quesadilla looked like it got sat on, my husband found metal shaving in the beans, my friends ceviche looked like it was days old, the lingua tacos she ordered looked so unappealing that she threw them away. I've never been so disappointed at a restaurant until that day.

Chicken, Shrimp, Marinated Pork taco
Tony V.

Perhaps this was just a bad day as I see many good reviews..but I can say I wouldn't return here after my experience. Came here with a group of 7 on a Tuesday evening. Immediately we were confused as there is an ordering counter in front of you and then seating on the left side of you. There is no sign to tell you to Please Seat yourself, Wait to be seated, or to order at the front yourself? Another customer told us we could seat ourself. There was a long table in the middle of the building but it was covered with water...looks like water condensation dripping from their cooling system? Anyway.. we sat separately at two smaller tables. The restroom is in the back corner of the building and was VERY dirty. The trash bin was completely full (stuff in it was about double the height of the trash bin itself, with some items falling out of it) and the floor was very wet. Very dim light as well making it pretty dangerous. One of my female friends said that their bathroom was much more normal, once again -- perhaps a bad day? We were given menus immediately but the server didn't come take our order until about 15 minutes later. I ordered the steak, fish, shrimp, marinated pork, and chicken tacos to try a little bit of everything. Food came out and I was missing a steak taco. Informed the waitress and she said she would bring it out. Fish was dry, shrimp was extremely dry (most inedible out of all 5) , marinated pork was at least flavored ~ okay tasting, and the chicken was shredded and delicious. After we had finished our meal..I was just going to pay and have the taco that never came out taken off the bill. We were up and ready to pay, this was when the steak taco came out ~ guess I'd try it. Steak was tiny burnt pieces and dry (super well done), had a couple bites and left the rest of it. (They had served the tacos with lime and there is two types of salsa at the table which I tried with each taco and this still did not alleviate how dry some of them were )

Great tacos in GR for a good price. Due to COVID-19, they are only doing curb side pick up at the moment.

Did you know that Lindo Mexico has the best salsa in the world?! It's absolutely my favorite…read morebecause they actually roast the veggies they blend together for salsa. Try it; you won't regret it. Did you also know that Lindo Mexico is a woman owned business? I love that, and want to show them some love this month while Yelp supports women owned businesses. Stop by Lindo Mexico sometime this month and enjoy a delicious meal (I specifically adore their burritos, tacos and camarones meals). If you come on a weekend you may be privileged to watch a free mariachi band during your meal. Enjoy! Cheers!!

We stopped here for cinco de mayo. It was busy but not too busy. We got seated right away…read more The atmosphere is decorated in a very festive manner with cool wall art covering many walls. The waitress was friendly and busy. The seating was a little tight depending on where you sit. Our table was almost blended into the one next to us. The food was good. The menu is partially in Mexican, so be prepared to either use a translation app or guess what you're getting based on photos. We ordered or thought we ordered the #9 lunch but got something a bit different but still very tasty. The plate was full of all the standard stuff, beans, rice, salad, main dish. The chicken under the cheese was delicious and moist. The beans and rice were flavorful without being dry. The salsa was unique. It was something of an acquired taste. The margarita flight was delicious! The prickly pear and traditional were our favorites. The blue one was a close second or third. The mango with the spicy rum was our least.
