Legitimately, the best Mexican restaurant experience I've ever had! I've been to hundreds of Mexican restaurants thousands of times, but this beat all. Great service, great chips and salsa, great hot sauces, fantastic drinks, and amazing entree. I ordered a bourbon sour, which was made by hand with real egg white. It was thick, creamy, and delicious, pairing perfectly with the many spicy food items I ordered. I was between several entree items, but took the waitress' opinion and ordered the puerco en salsa with tomatillo sauce, spicy. So very good. We also ordered the chicharrones on a whim as an appetizer, which were amazing dipped in the hot sauce. I would highly recommend a visit here. We're only in town a few days, but plan on coming back before we leave. read more

Taqueria Becerras is a hidden gem in Versailles, KY, about a 15-minute drive from the castle and absolutely worth every minute. I've been coming here for 10+ years for their handmade tortillas and fresh barbacoa tacos. They also have a killer creamy green sauce that ties everything together perfectly. I always try to switch up the protein but I can't. I like what I like, and the barbacoa is the reason I keep coming back. They offer plenty of other authentic Mexican plates as well, so there's something for everyone. The owners are incredibly sweet, and the inside feels just like a small, cozy Mexican taqueria simple, welcoming, and full of heart. One thing to note: they now have a weird closing time before dinner, so plan accordingly if you're making the trip. read more

I first found Taqueria Becerra not long after moving to Woodford County--around 2010--and it quietly became one of those places that anchors you to a town. I came in as "new in the area," and over the years the atmosphere has shifted into something rarer: it feels like you've been folded into the orbit of a family business that genuinely cares whether you leave happy. The food is consistently fresh and made with the kind of attention that's hard to fake. The classics hit every time--tacos on simple corn tortillas with cilantro and onion, a menu that goes well beyond the basics, and all the little details that make it taste like someone's cooking for people they know. But here's the real reason I tell people to go: the birria de chiva. If you're having one of those days where everything feels heavy, go sit down, order the soup, and let it do its work. It's rich, comforting, and somehow resets your whole mood in the first few bites. I've tried a lot of "comfort food" in my life--this is the real thing. Addendum: the recent patio addition and the bar are wonderful. read more

Strike one the guacamole was squashed avocado, and unflavorful didn't have any lime onion, cilantro tomato everything I needed to make a guacamole Strike two the torta that I ordered was very much bland. The steak had no marination and no seasoning just like you took a steak from the cold fridge still leaking blood and just putting in a pan and cooking it and then bringing it out to us to somehow enjoy that shit was rubbery as hell my jaw still hurts from eating it I I got a to go box and as I was sitting in my car, I wanted to get a second opinion with my wife and she tasted it and was like there is no flavor this taste like grease even tasted the meat again, and I threw up in the parking lot Strike three we thought the beans in the torta would be the saving grace. There wasn't any in sight!! The waiter and lady were so nice tho. read more

Very poor service, awful treatment, NO WALKS IN, the guy was very rude and deny service, I guess because the place it's so small, they serve only reservations. read more

This is a hidden gem. It's so unassuming and hard to find this place, but the food is fantastic! I got the taco plate with mix of Chorizo and Asada. It comes with a side of rice and beans. The chips are homemade and the salsa is amazing. read more

I don't get to Becerra often as it's out of the way for me. If hunger strikes, and I'm nearby, I know I can get very good, authentic Mexican. The simple tacos I had here last week were delish. Add one of their homemade hor sauces, and you're good to go. 90 read more

Taqueria Becerra - Tacos --- Chorizo and Barbacoa - Mexican Near Me - Versailles, Kentucky

I adore this place and frequent it at least once a month if not more. The space is very cute and cozy, giving a very inviting feel. Everything on the menu is good, yes everything. I dare you to find one thing that sucks. You wont. I love the tacos, quesadilla, burritos. Their guac is simple yet delicious. The cheese sauce is so good. They have a green hot sauce that is my favorite but beware she is proper SPICY. The only critique I would have is that there seems to be a difference between the salsa that you get in the store versus to go? The in store one is better. But that is absolutely nit picky and shouldn't be a deterrent to go. read more

With a few choices in Versailles for good Mexican food, this is my go to. The service is always friendly and the food fantastic. I ALWAYS get the goat Birria and is is stellar. I think I will go for lunch today :) read more

Stopped here as we were passing through. Reviews were good, so thought we'd give a chance. To be brief, waited 50 minutes for 3 tacos. Carne asada was dry, no flavor. Adobada and chorizo were decent. Agua frescas are not made fresh. Tortillas were handmade, but felt more like pita bread than tortillas. If you haven't had real authentic Mexican food, you might enjoy this. read more

It was absolutely delicious I will come back for more on my next pay day the chips was fresh and the server was great

My wife and I heard that the food was good, That is an understatement, we enjoyed the authentic Mexican food. Also our waiter was fantastic. Will be back read more

Taqueria Becerra - a view of a taqueria from a car window - Mexican Near Me - Versailles, Kentucky

The best actual Mexican cuisine I have ever eaten, anywhere, ever. Ask Servando for his recommendation you will not be sorry!!!!

First of all, I want to say this: due to COVID restrictions, our little hometown high school (Woodford County High School) was looking to find a cool outdoor venue for our students to hold their prom. Several local businesses were unable to do the math indicating that the money we were paying them would more than make up for any lost revenue from walk-in customers who may want to buy ice cream or pizza. I mean, I guess they aren't very good at math, but we were going to pay for $750 worth of ice cream. they must do a big business over there. Anyway, we settled on Thoroughbred Square as our location and immediately Taqueria Becerra was all in! They were so excited for us to have prom near their restaurant and instantly went into a partnership with us to make an amazing night. They set up tables outside and created a great little menu for the kids to choose from. We paid them for every senior to have tacos, chips, salsa and drinks. They were so easy to work with and made sure that everyone had a special night. I looked forward to tacos all night - I love tacos! WHo doesn't?! ANyway, on top of it all, these were possibly the best tacos I have ever had. They recommended that I try the marinated pork tacos - OMG so yummy! They came with homemade corn tortillas, fresh lime, cilantro and white onions. (You can also have jalapenos and hot sauce - I might next time, but...prom) The marinated pork was DELISHH! It was very seasoned but not spicy. I absolutely loved them. Mama made sure we chaperones had a little "to go" baggy to take home, so I got to have more tacos for breakfast! yay me! So, do me a favor, go there because their tacos are so good, but also, go there because they are good community members. They did the right thing. That should mean something to you, I know it means something to me. They stepped and helped made our little prom a little bit extra! This community owes them some taco business in return! read more

The food is authentic and delicious. The refried beans are made in house and you can taste the difference. The staff is great. They've suggested dishes I may not have ordered and they were wonderful. Call ahead to see if they have tamales. They are the best. It is. Family Stu read more

My favorite local Mexican place. Fresh options, great tacos, authentic options. Family run, good service.

This is real authentic Mexican food!!! We have tried so many Mexican restaurants in not only Versailles but Frankfort and Lexington as well and this is the place to go!!! When we are craving Mexican food we are more than willing to make the drive for their food. I have tried many of their dishes and have never been disappointed!! Best place for Mexican food in Kentucky!! Family owned and service is always with a smile!' read more

Hard to get my family to venture out and try a new place, especially something outside the "burger/pizza realm." We are all glad we tried this place. My wife ordered 2 chicken and 1 beef taco with rice and beans. My son got the kids taco with rice and beans. They loved their meals. I had the chile relleno, and it was the best I've ever had by far. Chips and salsa were good. Salsa was chunky but not very flavorful. They provide plenty of sauces to spice things up if you want. (I'm told by others that this is traditional true Mexican restaurant style.) I really liked that option. We were able to sample the sauces and find the one that was right for our individual preferences. Can't wait to go back again. read more

Taqueria Becerra - Best chili relleno I've ever had. Amazing! - Mexican Near Me - Versailles, Kentucky

I highly recommend this restaurant. The food is fantastic. It's authentic. Not like all the other Mexican restaurants they bring the roots with them. The service is great. The people are great. It's hard to find, but it is phenomenal. read more

Wonderful and authentic!! Would definitely go to again. Great hole in the wall Mexican food!

This place! It's the place you have been looking for all along. Great authentic food but some toned down for USA. Get tamales if available- absolutely fantastic. read more

This is our number one choice of place to eat out. The authentic food! Our favorite part are the fresh pressed corn tortillas! The restaurant is not fancy but we feel like family every time we visit! read more

I consider myself a mexican food eating professional. I grew up in New Mexico and went to college in the Hatch Valley in NM where the best green chile in the country is produced. I ate Mexican food probably 3 times a week for 40+ years. In New Mexico all the Mexican restaurants are good. This restaurant was not good in any way. The salsa was bland....no seasoning. The chips were cold as opposed to normally being hot. I had 3 tacos, 2 steak and 1 chicken. I'm used to corn tortillas being fried to just short of crisp. These were very slightly fried more to the raw side.....and the flavor comes from frying the tortillas.....raw is just massa. The ingredients were bland. Wife had chicken nachos. Chicken/cheese. No flavor. Good margarita and coors light. read more

The food at Taqueria Becerra has to be my favorite Mexican food in Versailles! Their food is the definition of comfort food and the tacos bursting with flavor. Absolutely amazing, cant miss. read more

This is the best Mexican restaurant! The family that owns and works the restaurant are first rate people. Home made corn tortillas & sauces are reason enough to eat here but it offers so much more. Trust me, you will love the food!! read more

By far our favorite Mexican restaurant! They have amazing tamales and the service is great. We eat here almost weekly.

Omg.... this place was so good. On our way home to Tennessee from a family reunion in Ohio and stumbled on to this little hole in the wall. Started with chips and awesome chunky salsa. I had the pork in spicy green sauce, rice and beans with homemade corn tortillas. Sooooo good. My hubby got a wet green spicy carnitas buritto filled with meat, rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese and cilantro. He said it was very tasty even if the spiciness made him red and made him sweat. The waitress told us she warned us it would be spicy. Haha. She was very sweet. My one negative point would be they aren't in the Nashville, Tennessee area. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in Versailles and it's not even close. Everything is so authentic and the prices are super reasonable

One of the my favorite places to go to in Versailles!!! Such a traditional Mexican taqueria. They offer multiple homemade salsas. My favorite thing to get here are gorditas, they're always made perfectly. Not only is the food delicious but the waiters are always so nice! read more

Absolutely amazing! This place is as authentic as they come, I'll never view "Mexican" food the same way as I used to - I'll make the trip to Versailles every time I crave Mexican food in the future! read more

Best valentine's dinner with the hubby. The carne asada tacos are the bomb. The mamasita makes her own tortillas in the back and they are so good. moist and fresh yet still strong enough to hold without breaking. Unlike most retaautants that double up their tortillas and you end up with more tortilla per meat ratio. They put a lot of carne with a side of cilantro, limes and onions. All for 1.75 each. I get full on 2, 3 if I'm super hungry. Btw a good sign of authentic Mexican food is how good their salsa. It is hot but not over the top and fresh. I would say it's the closest to my favorite restaurant in Los Angeles and that says a lot. Also you have to try their horchata (rice drink) which they make themselves from scratch. read more

Just a small notch above typical Mexican restaurants and very expensive. Beans were like water, rice plain, food just average. Sauces watery and very bland. iced tea tasted like water. Horchata was the one thing that was made very well. Lunch for four with one entree each and only a couple beverages total was about $110. They add the tip to the total themselves. Building is a garage or warehouse and service was very average - dropped off the food but never came back to check if we needed anything else. read more

Been several times now and just want to keep coming back. It's a perfect little hidden gem, makes you feel you are in Mexico. The options are limited but definitely 5 star. English is definitely the second language but you come for the food cause it is cheap and home made. Please try this place and support local businesses read more

I love this little hidden gem. I eat here about once a week either in the restaurant or by takeout. The Tacos a la Diabla with handmade corn tortillas are incredible, and my go-to favorite. The aguas frescas are delicious, and I haven't had a bad flavor yet. Truly worth a stop! read more

We happened upon this great authentic restaurant after trying to eat at a nearby place. If you are looking for beef nachos and the norm on Americanized Mexican restaurants this is not your place. If you are craving hand rolled delicious tortillas and salsa and guacamole then you have found your match. My asada tacos were excellent, chorizo taco just ok. Salsa and chips were great as was cheese dip. read more
