    Tacos are bae! This little taco spot was delicious and they're quick. Don't expect a fancy sit down, you eat in the air or sitting on some wood but the point is you taste yumminess. Each taco is $1.50 and they're tiny but mighty. I ordered three but only ate two. Got 2 asada and 1 chorizo. Their salsa bar is awesome too. They sell Mexican cokes and can cokes too. Please note that this is cash only.

    Sooooo goood! I was craving streets tacos the night before, so we visit another little place in Kearns and was a total disappointment. The next day, we decided to drove down State St were we know we can find real street tacos. That is how we found this place. The line was huge, but the lady at the cart was very fast. We got 8 tacos. Our favorite were the carnitas tacos and the alambre tacos. They were all so full of flavor and cheap at $1.25 each. This is definitely a place to visit more often.

    Anyone up for some delicious tacos?

    Okay, so perhaps I went a little taco-overboard today. A taco truck at the office for lunch and another taco truck at a social gathering this evening adds up to some dueling tacos reviews--and on this day, Tacos El Pariente was the clear winner! First off, these were authentic street tacos--doubled mini corn tortillas, packed with meat, and on the side they had ALL the fixins (four different sauces, diced tomato/onion, cabbage, radishes, peppers, etc.). I was thrilled to see they had al pastor tacos, and I took full advantage! Four al pastors and an asada later, and I was in taco la-la land. Each of the tacos had incredible flavor, and the side toppings were incredibly fresh. I snagged a business card just so I can reserve the services of Tacos El Pariente the next time we have a big family event--just park that cute little taco cart on the driveway and keep 'em coming. Oh, yes please!

    Won the taco heart for Valentines Day. Delish tacos. Salsa slaps, so good for all heat levels. Happy and helpful staff. Super clean environment. El Pastor and Asada Tacos are muy bueno! 10/10. Thank you, El Pariente and U92!

    Love Love Love their fish tacos! Love the rice and beans! Love the salsa bar! Love the jalapeño…read moremayo dressing. It's so good. I could drink it by itself. The restaurant has limited parking! Tiny! Parking is a joke! There is maybe 6-7 parking spaces on the east side. Maybe 2-3 at the back of the building, which is one way. It limits the ability to drive around the back of the building. There are two parking spaces on the west side of the building. I have seen cars get totally stuck, people yelling and getting upset. If you have a large vehicle, I would not even try to drive around the building. I would drive south of the restaurant and park at the whitmore library's parking lot, and walk over. Service is okay. Ordering is cramped, and if there's a line you're standing at the back of the restaurant right next to people sitting eating. It's uncomfortable. During the summer there is seating inside and outside, but during high times you have to wait for a table! During the winter there are 12 tables, most of which are room for 2 people, four tables for 4 people, 5 if you can fit. This restaurant is SO popular, they really need to move to a larger building! One with plenty of parking and more seating. I love their food so much I would go once a week if there was more seating and parking, otherwise it's just too stressful!

    I saw the Diners, Dives, and Drive-ins that featured this restaurant a few years ago and have…read morewanted to try it ever since. I finally made it there yesterday! Unfortunately I kind of wish I didn't. We tried the fish tacos, shrimp tacos, Carne Adovada Burrito, nachos with shredded beef, and horchata. The dish with the most flavor was the nachos. I'd give that dish a 4. The horchata was pretty good too. Definitely above average horchata. But the rest of the dishes didn't have enough flavor, even after adding salsa from their salsa bar. This was pretty disappointing and we wished we had picked a different restaurant for lunch.
