The last few times we have gone to Taco King, things have gone okay. Overall, it's not as good as…read moreit used to be though. Prices have gone up significantly, and quality and quantity has decreased. For example, I used to get the Gordita for 4 and change, now it's 9 dollars and they cut the amount of quality items they put on it. Service is always hit or miss. They frequently forget to give you stuff as well. It's still much better than Taco Bell, more authentic and i appreciate supporting a locally owned business.

They're also pricy. Like $60 ish dollars for 6 pancita tacos and a side of rice. This is still my favorite rice of all time though so paying a premium for good food is worth it. Fortunately for my husband whom chipotles are too spicy for, they did put the sauce on the side.

Trivia: Recipes for molcajete salsa start with the tomatoes, peppers, and garlic being what encore…read morethey are mashed down to a salsa? I was happy to see that the menu here is more like the Northern Lights location than the 4th Avenue location. Mainly, they have the Southwest tacos here. But they were out of No Woman, No Cryo. That beer is a pretty big reason I choose this restaurant. On this visit, I tried a new salsa. Went with the molcajete, and it was tasty. Not a bit of salty. Full of flavor. Here's the rub: Chips and salsa are not complimentary at any Serranos. I always get them because the salsa is so good. But the chips are .... not great. And my tacos came out so fast, I didn't get much time to eat them. So I had a ton left. So I took them home. Cause, well 8 bucks. And, I made nachos with them. Weird thing happened. Once heated up, they tasted WAY better. I think Serranos is missing it with their chips.

The fiancé and I finished a long hike and decided to reward ourselves with Mexican food. We came to…read moreXalos based on the excellent Yelp reviews (but really, the pics of birria tacos). I was expecting something more hole-in-the-wall (Mountain View has changed so much), but Xalos is an open space with lots of seating and a big menu. I couldn't decide on what to eat but went with the pork carnitas plate. Fiancé went with the birria tacos and we shared some guac and chips. You order at the counter and they bring the food out to you. The pork on mine was very tender and juicy and there was something about the flour tortilla that was different but very good. I seasoned it with their spiciest hot sauce (I could handle on its own, but accidentally ate a jalapeño right after...yikes). I honestly could have inhaled the whole plate but saved some for later. Fiancé is somewhat of a birria connoisseur, and while these weren't his favorite he enjoyed them. Xalos was a great find and good value for the price (a little over $50 for the two entrees and appetizer). I'd love to try their tacos on our next visit.

We have had a lot of Mexican food on both sides of the border. their fried beans is #1. Spicy Salsas wow, slaps you , yes from the first bite, it's unbelievable they are here in Anchorage.

Yes the menu will be a bit challenging and they may disappear after serving you.. ;) but it's necessary for what they deliver.

While the mole sauce was delicious, the chicken thighs I received were so small and bony, my rice lacked flavor and the beans were very soupy. My chips were like the little broken pieces at the bottom of the bag making it hard to scoop any decent amount of salsa into them. For almost $30/plate I was anticipating more protein, bolder flavors and better quality. I want to give them another chance, but sometimes first impressions are lasting impressions. Service was friendly but waitstaff were busy so not as attentive. Ambiance is what you'd expect from a hole in the wall.

There's a little bbq, sandwiches and some Mexican inspired dishes. Definitely has a little bit of everything.

I enjoyed the pulled pork Sammy and loved the pineapple slaw for a bit of sweet. The carne asada fries were also good, but I wish they were more loaded. Pretty sparse order than what I'm used to getting at other restaurants. The bread that the tuna sandwich came on was so good, and the tuna salad had a great wasabi kick.
