    I'm a big fan of the original location on Southwest Boulevard, so I was excited to see the restaurant place it's second home in this Mission neighborhood. I'm a bit basic and mostly go with breakfast or tacos. It's not fancy, but it's a good solid meal served in filling portions. Some salsa from the condiment bar adds a little kick. The inside is small and can get cramped in a rush.

    The tacos were delicious that I wish I can eat those every day and my taste buds wouldn't be tired. However, the tamale was not very soft to eat but otherwise the flavor was good. The salsa and topping options were great including the option of pico de Gallo. On the bright side, the service was relatively fast since I only had to wait a couple of minutes to get the food after ordering at the counter.

    Tacos El Gallo has something to crow about - they have opened their 2nd location and first on the Kansas side. The gritty urban feel of their original is replaced with a sleek suburban stripmall feel - just the way Johnson County city planners insist. The ambiance may not be authentic, but the menu and recipes remain "muy autentico". My recent Saturday afternoon visit left me satiated with my trinity of barbacoa, asada, and pastor tacos topped with some pickled onions, spicy green sauce, and pico from the plentiful salsa table. For a few perfect moments I even forgot that I was in JOCO! Great stuff, great pricing. I also took home a 1/2 dozen tamales for my wife. She stated they were delicious, but I wouldn't know for sure since she ate all 6 within 2 days and refused to share.

    El Mexican Plate (Before a Visit to the Toppings Bar)

    I liked the first-rate service, the fairly reasonable prices and the good salsa heat options during my dine-in lunch at this new restaurant. The El Mexican plate ($9.99) was ready just five minutes after I ordered at the counter. It included three fresh, warm, double layer, 4.5" street tacos with generous amounts of my choice of nine protein options (shrimp and fish dishes are also available separately), along with rice, refried beans and access to a pretty good toppings bar with sour cream and several toppings and salsas of various heat levels from mild to salsa diabla. They did not offer complimentary chips & salsa. I found the staff to be cheerful, polite and professional, while the dining area was clean and basic. I also noticed the staff's focus on cleanliness during my visit - nice! The menu included breakfast, meals for the kiddos, aguas frescas, a soda dispenser, margaritas and various bottled beers. They also offered a patio area with music. Very nice!

    Don't let the end of a strip mall and 4 indoor booths scare you! Outdoor seating is available and A LOT of traffic was to go orders. Food was fresh...street tacos were full...ordered asada carnitas and pastor...very good...wish barbacoa was an option...cold salsa bar was awesome!!!! Bought a bag of homemade tortilla chips to take home! Would definitely recommend

    My favorite taco place in town. I love the El Mexican because I get the beans and rice on the side which are delicious as well. Fun patio area outside.

It gave an option for dining with a group of people or simply dining alone. We arrived around 1pm on a week day, so just after the lunch rush which was perfect. The food was made fresh, I've always wanted to try the barria taco but no one seems to offer anything but a beef option. And finally, I found a chicken one. It was Delish !! Now I couldn't dip in the au just because it was beef but I appreciate having the option. The Mexican rice was light and flavorful. The queso was good however it stiffened up pretty quickly, just in case you feel the anxiety of choosing between. Your appetizer and the main costs course. Over all, a great experience for a late afternoon lunch. Check out it when your craving tacos, I don't think you'll be disappointment.

The inside of the restaurant is classic industrial, cozy, super casual, and has a fun upbeat vibe. Everyone serving in the restaurant at all different levels is very kind and friendly. When we sat down, we were brought the typical basket of tortilla chips, along with their homemade salsa... And an extra surprise was there Mini bowl of queso dip. It was creamy and yummy. The salsa wasn't as spicy as we prefer, but it was decent. Our sever took our drink rider which were margaritas. They have a very long list of all types of flavors of margaritas... Are you in the mood, this is a place to go! They also offer three different sizes in the margaritas, plus a ton of other drinks as they have a very large bar. It was a Saturday night, so It was pretty crowded, but there was not a wait for a table. Our waitress brought back our margaritas, but it took her over 35 minutes to get to our table to even take our dinner order. At least they brought us three baskets of chips to hold us over! After a little over a half hour, she came back to our table and asked us if we were still waiting for our food... We explained to her that she never actually took our dinner order to begin with. We ordered street tacos and jalepeno cream cheese ans chicken enchiladas... black beans and rice. Everything was tasty. We were starving at this point because it was almost an hour when our food arrived. She apologized for forgetting about us in between the tables served before us... It was worth it... however, we will order for take out next time. Waiting at our table and having 30 min between a margarita and a meal was too long for our liking.

A staff member, for lack of a better word, gave me the cold shoulder and said the kitchen was closed. My wife was still interested in getting some tacos, so I thought about where to go. This place came to mind. We had been there before and had a good experience, and when we got here, there were maybe about 15 minutes before the kitchen closed. I believe the person who said to us was also the manager, a really nice lady. She let us know that the kitchen was closing in about 15 minutes, but we were more than welcome to order and we'd be taken care of. Sure enough, we got a nice seat, good ambience, and a great waiter. They got us a seat, gave us some recommendations on the menu. I ended up ordering the Steak Quesadilla along with the complimentary chips and salsa with the three different types of salsa that they have. Came with that. My wife ended up ordering the Soft Shell Crab Tacos. I'll give the quesadilla a 4 out of 5. Great steak flavor, had some other grilled vegetables on the inside. Not as much cheese as I would like, but it had great flavor. The guacamole that came with it was pretty good. I loved the green salsa that came with the trio of salsas. I'm going to say it's tomatillo. I didn't ask. I'm not sure, but it tasted great. Good portion size, really good waitstaff. He took care of us. I was pleasantly taken care of on my side. My wife had the soft-shell crab tacos, nice and fresh, really big portion. She liked my quesadilla, so she went ahead and ordered her a plate of those as well. She only had about half the quesadilla portion. She had to take the other half to go. She did get a pineapple margarita, which she really enjoyed. She finished that completely. We really enjoyed the ambience of the restaurant. It was nice, and I enjoyed myself. The soft-shell crab was a four out of five for the taco. She was a little thrown by the fact that the shell was still on it, which was a whole thing that she laughed with the waiter about. I'll say that we'll definitely be back to try their brunch, which the manager invited us to. If you've never been to this restaurant, you should definitely give them a try.

We will try again in the future when perhaps, they work out some of the kinks.

    I've been here a few times with my office mates. They are all very into Mexican. Living in South…read moreFlorida influenced me to learn much more about Latin foods which are much more diverse than Mexican. I've had a very hard time finding much Latin diversity here so far but for Mexican this is quite good. I've mostly gotten combo platters because I like the variety. I believe every combo platter should come with rice and beans. I can tell how authentic a place is by the beans and salsa quite often. So far I've liked the combo platters and the taco salad that I tried. Again, if I remember correctly, I had to pay extra to get beans on my taco salad. That would be one complaint I have. Beans should be a staple and come with everything unless the person doesn't want them. The service has been good. No complaints and it's been busy when we've eaten there usually during lunch hours. The decor and ambiance is pretty typical Mexican. Nothing fancy. The one thing I will note is I didn't see any Mexicans working there. Maybe someone in the kitchen I can't see so that's usually not a great sign. I know they've been around a long time. I'd probably go a smidge lower to 3.5 if I could just because I'm rather picky about Mexican and Latin food but I don't think it's fair to go down to 3 so I'm rounding up. The prices seem a bit high but everything is so expensive in 2026! They are probably pretty average for eating out and I'm sure it's costing them more just like all the rest of us have seen food prices sky rocket over the past year. I would certainly recommend them for a lunch bite and a nice Mexican American experience.
