Amazing food, amazing staff. Best tacos I've found in town. Their hot salsa is fire! Will be my go to from now on.

Got the super burrito with Al pastor, couldn't really tell there was avocado inside the burrito. Costed $17 after tax, but it was pretty filling! Salsa is also on the spicier side which I like Service was alright, they have a buzzer system so you can wait inside your warm car instead of the freezing cold They do have tables outside if you want to eat there, not bad if you want eat there on the spot read more

Tacos La Bufa - Menu - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Best food in town. However they do not pay attention to DoorDash orders at all. Go to the restaurant. If you ask for salsa they don't add it, if your order comes with consume they forget it. The food is incredible but if they choose to allow DoorDash they need to read the orders. It's very upsetting when you pay a good amount for main parts of your order to not show up. read more

Tacos la Bufa was good. Real Mexican food with real Mexican food flavor. Al pastor burrito was huge. Like two person huge and tasted great. Tacos were average. I really like the torta with all the pickled veggies. it had a ton of flavor. read more

Always big burritos. The interior is pretty small so I generally order mine for pick up. The flavor is always on point and doesn't disappoint when I introduce it to my friends. read more

Tacos La Bufa - Menu 11/16/25 - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

finally a Taco shop opened in this area, The shopping center located on a busy corner of Longley and McCarren. Expectations, although the service was impeccable the veggie and chicken options were not. Price is avg for a taco at 2.50, we got a couple tacos; chicken and potato something. Do not recommend either, pastor and chicken is flavorless and was shredded. I even asked if it was grilled at the least. Loaded Nachos were okay left a lot to be desired especially for $15.00. chicken was at least grilled but again no flavor. cheese was at least nacho cheese, jalapeño's were not fresh either. they have many other meat options but I either don't eat them or don't have any desire to try them. Hopefully they improve. read more

The food is killer and doesn't cost too much. The service is good and the vibes are exactly what you want from a food truck. Definitely give it a try! read more

Good food, friendly staff, fine seating area. Kind of an odd location. Overall positive experience!

We had a burrito - beans hard Had to look for meat! Bombazo - bread hard like it was old. This place is usually ok .. At first, everything is good and delicious and then they forget! read more

Has no flavor. As had a burrito and had trouble finding any meat. One of the salsa tasted as I it was old and ready to turn.

Very average food, and they do not have chips. I mean who does not have chips in this day and age? You can't even buy chips, let alone giving you some with your food. For me that is a big turn off, and I thought my last Carnitas burrito there was gristle and yuck. I am willing to give them one more chance, but that no chips thing is just too much. I heard these guys had a taco truck out in front of Peppermill, so there must be something good to eat here but I just haven't found it yet. read more

Solid little taco shop in our neighborhood. Been meaning to try it since it opened several months ago and I'm glad we finally did. Ordered the breakfast torta and an order of 5 fried shredded beef tacos or taquitos that came with rice and beans. Both were packed with flavor. The tacos, though simply prepared, were very crispy and topped with a tasty blend of shredded lettuce, crema, and cojita cheese. The torta is absolutely loaded with a variety of meats, and topped with an egg just to reassure you it counts as breakfast (or any time really)! The service was fine, quick and polite to take my to-go order. It took a few minute longer than expected, but the authentic quality and taste will remind you some things are worth waiting a little longer. There's only seating for a couple families inside this no-frills little shop, so likely plan to order ahead for pickup or take out. Regardless, the space is clean and inviting for the time you are there. Will definitely be back to try any combination of the 20 or so options they have on their menu. Most items are between $10-15. read more

Formerly a taco truck (and a highly regarded one, at that), Tacos La Bufa just opened in the old Lunchbox location on Longley and I'm thrilled to have them in the neighborhood! Tried them for the first time today, ordering six different large tacos; namely: asada, lengua, buche, tripitas, flor de calabaza and huitlacoche. And what a treat these were! The tacos come neatly prepared with sliced radish, marinated onions, grilled peppers, limes and either spicy or mild salsa (I had the mild, which was a salsa verde with nice bite to it). Two corn tortillas supply an ample foundation to this feast. The asada was juicy, albeit a standard preparation, the lengua was both tender and flavorful. The tripitas (or buche...not sure as we inhaled these so quickly), however, was outstanding! Fatty, juicy, tender little nuggets of offally goodness, I could scarf down a good half dozen of these! (Side note: I plan to go back tomorrow to clarify if these were indeed tripitas tacos and I'll update accordingly.) And what I think was the buche was a crispy little treat as well. The flor de calabaza was outstanding. Tart, soft and melt-in-your-mouth tender, these lightly sauteed veggie tacos blew my mind. Who knew rabbit food tacos could be so dang good?!? The huitlacoche was tasty in its own right, providing a musty, heady mess of corn smut and onions. What excites me so much is that these guys aren't doing old taqueria standards, they're reaching for new heights with exciting ingredients, flavors and preparations. I'm excited to return and try more! read more

OVERPRICED. Smallest burritos and tacos I've ever bought........................................,,,,,............................

The hunt for a go to taco in South Reno will continue. I wanted to get a good representation of flavors so I ordered three separate tacos. The tacos are average size for the $2.50 price and are filled with a fair amount of meat. First, I tried the asada. The meat was flavorless. Luckily, lunch came with a salt pack, I think intended for the chopped radish, but served well on the asada taco. The tortillas were fried and warm, and did not fall apart while eating as many do. Doused in a generous amount of salsa verde, the taco was ok. Second, I ate the carnitas taco, which followed the theme of no seasoning. After a squeeze of lime and more salsa verde, there was nothing notable about the taco, but down the hatch it went. Last, I enjoyed the chicharrón taco. I had asked the young man taking my order what chicharrón was. His answer was an expression of "I don't know" and he said it was beef, pressed. Haha, I am pretty sure what I got was pork belly. This taco did not require any additions to give it zest and I enjoyed each bite. They do offer many other meat options, including tripitas, intestine. I couldn't bring myself to try this here. read more

Tacos La Bufa - hot sauce and tacos, that's a reason to celebrate! - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Cozy, little spot they added for a more comfortable setting added onto their food truck they also have in front of the Peppermill. The food truck has later hours, but this is more of a normal restaurant setting. Same food and menu, but a nice air conditioned place to sit down and eat. You are able to rent the whole restaurant since it's seats about 30 or less maybe. They do have a bathroom and they still make their own tortillas. I love how they have all the meats. And I don't just mean chicken, beef, Al pastor, and cabeza (head) I mean all the meats. Tripe, which is stomach, lengua (tongue), buche (intestine) I think. They were out of that last time I went. They shop locally at Sierra seafood in sparks I was told by the owner. Very nice, but quiet. Informed me about what is great to try and what everyone likes to get and where they source all their food, and what they make during the weekends. Which they make menudo and pozole fresh every weekend. I still have not been able to try the pozole because they seriously sell out by Saturday. And I usually come here on Sundays since it's my Fridays from work and I like to treat myself. Their beans are made fresh. Very tasty. I'm not sure what they put in them but I hate beans but I will eat theirs. Their Spanish rice is fluffy which is so nice because you feel like you can eat a lot of it. Maybe that's not very nice because that's not a good thing for me. Haha. Don't want to add on more weight. Well, so far my favorite Mexican place to eat at. Yum yum. read more

The chorizo con papas burrito has so much flavor, it's so thick & for the first time ever I didn't need or want salsa on a burrito!! Love it, & the Asada tacos are authenticity made perfectly. read more

Fantastic tasting food, but the horchata could use some help. Lacks the cinnamon/sweet flavor and tastes more like milk. But other than that, the food is amazing!!! read more

This place has a variety of great selection of meats! (10+ of options) Each meat I've tried is essentially phenomenal. They have tradition dishes that most places don't offer such as their hand made corn quesadillas, gorditas, sopes, and huaraches. Also their salsas are great and by far one of the best I've tried in town it has it's flavor and actual spice. If you go on the weekend, they offer pozole and menudo with hand made tortillas. read more

It was okay. I got the tacos. The beans were inconsistent. More cilantro would have added to the flavor. The onions are also smothered in oi read more

Great place! They make their own tortillas for the gordita which is bomb! Service and kitchen a bit slow but that is normal for such a mom and pop! Sadly they post closed at 4pm and often close by 3pm so get there early! This would be the only thing I would fix. If you are going to be open...Be open :) read more

I've been going to the food truck for almost seven years now and I'm so so so excited to have them in my neighborhood now! Went to the actual restaurant and was warmly greeted by the familiar faces from the food truck and as always the food was delicious, and the service was friendly. The truck was always my first recommendation for the best tacos in Reno, but they were sometimes tricky to catch, so this is so awesome! read more

Tortas are amazing great place. people are very nice always quick

Great taco stand. Quick service, sometimes not the best location. Carne asada is top notch.

Nothing special about the food here and somthing in my burrito tasted rancid which I had to throw away. More of undercooked rice and bean then the actual steak meat. my experience and money down the drain, this place does not have fresh ingredients. Wanted to like this place and was hoping I can get lunch from here 2 or 3 times a week since I work near by, but after tasting somthing disgusting and rancid, I'LL PASS. read more
