The hands-down best taco restaurant I've ever been to (including taquerias I've been to in Mexico…read moreand in Texas' biggest cities). The vampiros are so insanely delicious, I regret not filling up on them when I order anything else. Their tortillas and fajita are really good too. The restaurant itself is nothing crazy, very mom and pop, and the parking is a tough situation. Very crowded lot. Service is also not phenomenal but the food is absolutely delicious! One feature of their service I'd love for them to fix: when you order, you wait in line at a window before being seated. If you decide later you want a single extra taco, you have to go get back in line AND they take just as long as they took to bring your food originally so if you don't order something initially, it'll take so long to get it after the fact that you'll wish you just left. Customers who are already seated should be able to order with waitstaff and not wait in line again for twenty minutes. That does not make sense.

Tried this well-known taqueria that everyone talks about, and it was good overall, but I've…read morehonestly had better. The tacos were solid -- fresh ingredients, good portions, and nice flavors -- but nothing really stood out or wowed me. I think the hype set my expectations a little too high. The service was friendly and the place is small and cozy which I appreciated. It's definitely worth trying at least once if you're in the area, but for me it wasn't quite as memorable as I expected. I'd still come back, just not rushing to.

This is place was gold!…read more The environment is for every occasion, big family gatherings, friends, and/or connect with loved ones with an important theme--TACOS! With not wanting to miss out on any specific specialty taco, I decided to go with their Sampler Plus and boy was I happy to do that. Decided to do two Tacos El Plebe, Taco el Rojo, El de Asada, and Taco El Compa. If I had to choose, the Taco El Plebe had the edge but none of these disappointed. The sauces were on point and for the first time in a while, I felt that great kick but not over bearing. The grilled onions was just the cherry on top of tacos. And Tuesdays seems to be free cup of Frijoles Mamalones I was happy to be trying this place on a Tuesday, it did not disappoint but I was feeling it. I had to opt out of trying any desserts, but that just means I'll have to be back. They have a DJ and/or play music but it's not so loud you can't have intimate conversations or not hear your friends and family. The waiter said the weekends is jammed pack but I wouldn't let that deter me from trying to be here, there is plenty of parking and seating, just may come earlier rather than later.

WOOOOW! All I can say is - BEST taco spot in town…read more We normally go next door to Taqueria Mary BUT with their prices being so high and their wait so long we decided somewhere else. We saw THIS spot -Tacos Las Brasas and decided to try it. We're from out of town and don't know the area much, only in town when we visit family. They speak Spanish but also had someone come out who spoke English, cool dude. He helped us with the order and got half an order to try. Man, were we hooked!! We ended up choosing their to eat and ordering for the whole family. 6 taco orders of different kinds but each one had great flavor. Definitely recommend the one with avocado and cheese (sorry, don't remember name), but you won't go wrong with your choice. The frijoles (beans) were so good we had to get a large cup of it. Man! Will definitely be stopping here from now on when we come see our family and will tell them to EAT HERE! Definitely don't just take my word for it but if you're in town, try it out yourself!

I asked if they had pink packets and she said no. No to her. Con # 3: There are no free refills. I ordered two unsweet teas and the girl brought me two unsweet teas with yellow packets.

The tortillas are small and paper thin just like in Monterrey, they slice the pork thin off the tropo and finish it cooking on the griddle. The next day I came back for a burger sencilla. The beans are on point. The service is great, but there is a surcharge for using cards. I took my food to go both times, but they now have an eating area which they did not a year ago. I don't live in the area, but always get my food here when visiting family. The ambiance looks nice in the eating area, but there was no one around when I went by at around 5pm. Highly recommend this place. If you have not been by in a while, they have reversed the drive-thru area.
