As a truck driver always on the hunt for good eats near truck stops and Walmarts, I spotted this…read morelittle Mexican place from the parking lot and decided to give it a shot. Man, it was one of the best decisions I've made on the road lately! The food came out hot and fresh with that real homemade taste. The tacos were packed with flavor, the rice and beans were on point, and the portions were generous enough to fill up a hungry driver without breaking the bank. I went with the carne asada and it hit the spot perfectly - seasoned just right, not too greasy, and cooked tender. Service was quick and friendly, even when they were busy. The place has that classic hole-in-the-wall vibe (in the best way), nothing fancy but clean and welcoming. It felt like the kind of authentic spot locals would keep coming back to. Only reason it's not 5 stars is the parking can be a little tight for a big rig if you're not careful, and they don't have a ton of truck-friendly seating space. But the food more than makes up for it. If you're rolling through the area and craving real Mexican food, definitely stop in. I'll be back next time I'm in the neighborhood. ¡Muy bueno! -- Carlos, SemiTruckDriver

The food court. Every mall has one, and no two are the same. It's quick, it's convenient, and it's…read moregood for families and groups because...well...theres something for everybody. I don't go to the mall often, and when I do, I definitely don't make a day of it. I go, I get what I need, then leave. However, no trip to the mall would be complete without a good face stuffing at the food court. Now, there are two types of eateries available. The kind that have everything readily made and situated in trays behind a glass display, where freshness can be a crapshoot ( I tend to avoid these), and those that prepare foods made to order. Thankfully, El Taco Mex is of the latter variety. They've been a food court resident since December 2018, and their menu is as appetizing as the fragrance of sizzling meats cooking up on the griddle. Eager to put El Taco Mex to the test, I ordered 2 things. The Asada (steak) Taco and the Sope Al Carbon (pork). A Sope is fashioned like a tostada, but the corn shell is thicker and pliable enough for a fork and knife. The menu describes this as "small," but in actuality, it was rather generous in size, especially piled with fresh cut veggies and sour cream. In both the taco and the sope, the meats were well seasoned, caramelized, and seared to perfection. Bottles of green (verde) sauce and red hot sauce are provided, should you want some. Devouring this meal as if it would be my last, I couldn't help but look over at Moe's, giggle, and shake my head. They could learn a thing or 20 from El Taco Mex. No, it's not a chain or a food court heavy hitter, and yes we've seen countless eateries try to stay afloat and fail miserably throughout the years. I'm TELLING you this is the real deal. The proud owner/manager behind the counter gave me free samples of both the Horchata and Jamaica drinks and honestly I could drink either by the gallon, they were so refreshing. That food court experience in itself....was refreshing. GO HERE. EAT HERE. Show them some love, because they're authentic and they deserve to STAY. Thank you for reading, support your local eats and businesses, and as always...SYOY!

Whoaaaa. This was a surprise. I do not expect a legit Mexican food joint in the middle of the mall…read more The sad part is I saw more people in line for Taco Bell and Moe's than this place. Nothing against those restaurants but I will never pass up local, authentic ethnic food if the food is comparable in pricing. I have been watching a lot of Mikey Chen on YouTube (simply dumpling) and he is on a Mexico food trip. After seeing him wolf down, I decided I had to get some Mexican food. This place had so few reviews but I figured why not. They have pretty simple meat options. No lengua or any fancy meats. Just the original tasty stuff. Pastor, asada, Pollo, chorizo. For me that's all you need. The asada, Pollo, and chorizo were all flavored to perfection. They had great strong, rich meaty flavor. My only complaint is that there was not enough meat! They had great buns for the torta and it was crisp and had a perfect softness at the same time. The pastor and the toppings just matched perfectly. Loved their sour cream too which really brought it all together. The nachos are probably worth passing on unless you really love them. They were relatively cheesy and meaty as a good nacho should be but not anything to write home about. If you like the nacho cheese you will have to ask for that extra. Lastly the burrito, excellent seasoned chicken but a little dry. Again the sour cream really helped bring it all together with the veggies. I am going to have to figure out what brand they use. I hesitate to call this my favorite Mexican place in the area. Time will tell. The pricing is relatively competitive and service was great.. For now I will still go to el Castillo first, but this place may actually be right behind it. Next time gotta try all their tacos and more!

Overall it was a good experience. The staff were very friendly and they have a decent offering for lunch specials. I ordered the lunch Chimichanga and it was ok. My friends ordered the lunch fajitas and a bowl. Both of their orders looked very good. Pros: * Quick service * Friendly staff * Good Food * Good portion sizes I'll give this place another try and see if my opinion goes up. I would consider this average - the chimichanga was good but the beans did not have any flavor.

The mahi taco was probably the best, along with the steak al pastor, but everything was oversauced (which didn't help the tortillas survive). The guacamole, however, was excellent. Service was friendly but not especially quick, though it was a Friday. The ambiance is generic Town Center. Might give it another try, but not in a rush.
