    Carnitas
    Anna S.

    I have been to several smoked tacos in the area so when I took a friend here who had never been we walked in and the smell of dirty dish towels overwhelmed us so bad we could eat here. I was super disappointed because I had told her the food was good and the service was nice. This new space is bigger than the outside suggests and to my surprise people were still eating here even though the smell was bad. Tacos I recommend are the shrimp and carnitas. Chips and queso were a little too thick for me. Chips were great, get the guacamole.

    Food was great. I am not a cilantro fan and forgot to ask for no cilantro. It was difficult to scrape off due to the small size of the cilantro. I would definitely come back and next time as to omit the cilantro. The queso sauce was a tad spicy but had great flavor

    We love The Smoked Taco & have been to other locations so we were excited to try the new location in Murray. This location is big inside . The employees are friendly. We ordered The Fleeing Californian , The Hot Chick & The Memphis . These are all delicious tacos . Order them as they come with all the good stuff on them . They are amazing ! The tacos come with a lot of meat & are very filling . The Hot chick is my favorite . It is a chicken tender with smoked hot honey , biscuit crumble & green onions. We got the chips & salsa . This was really good too . They have Coke products . We can't wait to go back !

    THE SMOKING PASTOR pulled pork + pastor sauce + fresh onion + cilantro + fresh lime

    Tried The Smoked Taco and went with two of The Smoking Pastor tacos -- pulled pork with pastor sauce, fresh onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. The flavor was solid, pork had that nice smoky tenderness, and the crispy cheese shell had potential to be fire. Since it was delivery, the cheese lost that crunch I was hoping for, but that's on the travel, not the kitchen. Can't really rate service or ambiance since it was DoorDash, I'd say 3 as delivered, probably a strong 4 fresh in-house. Definitely feels like one I need to try again straight off the grill.

    Another place that was right across from the hotel. I ordered chips and guacamole and the chips are endless. Nice and crispy. The guacamole was nice and fresh. I ordered the Californian (?), I think. Everything about the taco was very good. The counter person was helpful. The restaurant is clean and good amount of indoor seating. They also have some outdoor seating too.

    Smoked Tacos sells street tacos but with more types of toppings then onions and cilantro. Their tacos are more expensive than other Taco shops. My food tasted too sweet. I really didn't like it. The employees were really nice. They don't have salt packets and he put some in a cup for me.

    Oh boy, I have had my eye on this place for quite a while. My husband and I went for a lunch date and got 4 different kinds of tacos and they were all good. The cheese in between the tortillas- so good. The meat, so good. The service was awesome and the dining areas both in and out were nice! Definitely check it out

    Fast and easy with a great outcome. Food is delicious and pricing is the best part. Can feed 2 for less than $20.00. Unbelievable! A well deserved 5 stars

I was pleasantly surprised by the decor inside, they have spent a great deal for this location. I ordered chips and salsa to start. These were not complimentary but when they arrived the salsa was fresh and unique. I was glad I ordered them. My wife chose the carne asada burrito. She raved about the flavor and could only finish half. I ordered a unique taco which had an authentic name this gringo cannot remember but it was built on a house made corn tortilla about twenty inches long and ten inches wide. Steak, Mexican cream, tomatillo sauce, freshly shredded lettuce and cheese. I've never had anything like it but it is awesome. The service was quick and efficient. Very delightful people. The check had included a 15% Service Charge so I was glad to see the options on the screen to add a tip began at a level that matched up with the service charge at a reasonable level. I only had one complaint, The music was a little loud. The sound system is great and I loved the authentic music but the baseline was pumping loud enough to hurt my ears. I'd recommend adjusting the volume or the mix to make it a little more comfortable. Overall I loved this experience and will definitely want to come again. No pictures, sorry.

    Absolutely delicious!…read more I got a BOGO free burrito coupon from their FB feed, so why not? So glad I did! I had the spicy green chili burrito--delicious! Smothered inside and out with their very fine green chili. The tortillas seem homemade, it was fresh and good. My wife had the carne asada burrito. I got a bite of it and the beef is delicious! Such good flavors. I also had the pinto beans and rice, both are very good. The horchata, made with almond milk, was creamy and just the right amount of cinnamon and sweet. They serve flour and corn tortilla chips with three salsas. The chips were excellent. The flour chips are deep fried, really good. The red salsa was the hottest but not bad for heat. The green was good. Now the crema sauce was my favorite, it is really excellent. Nice restaurant, comfortable chairs, nice decor that goes along with their theme. Looks like a comfortable bar. Service was friendly and accommodating. I would like to eat here again and take advantage of the FB coupon for their tacos. Highly recommended! 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

They've remodeled in the past three years and I really like what they've done! Beautiful decor and it's now a sit down restaurant, which I really like!! Menu is very similar, but expanded! They brought delicious chips and 3 salsas to the table! The crème one was my favorite!! I got a Pacifico to drink and my husband got a Corona nonalcoholic. I went for the Chicken Mole taco with a side of black beans and rice! Absolutely delicious!! My husband got the Bean and Cheese taco and the Impossible meat taco with a side of tots! Service was great! I'm so glad we finally made it back! Really want to come more frequently!! Also heard they have good breakfast tacos in the morning! Will try those next!

As we just moved here, our home kitchen is 90% unpacked & I terrifiedly ventured out on Thanksgiving Day of all time to find breakfast. TF was open! What luck! The owner, Martin was very polite & accommodating with a couple of omissions. After ordering my take out, I ventured over to the salsa bar; I know it was a quiet day business wise, but it was immaculate!!! The cilantro, limes & salsas were all fresh which is a roll of the dice In taquerias. Maybe on busier days there might be a little salsa drop but am so impressed overall & it speaks volumes. My chiliquiles are delicious & a generous portion, definitely shareable &/or for finishing later. The tacos I ordered for my partner were not tiny street tacos but MUCH larger, the meats are fresh & beautifully seasoned. I am so thrilled to have found this Sugar House/Millcreek spot, will be going there regularly to try more. A nice bonus are the soyrizo options for vegans.

They gave me a bowl of shredded cabbage with chopped onions, cilantro, oregano, thick cut radishes and a spicy cup of salsa. South city tacos is located in The market On the corner of 3300 South 200 East. What I love about this market is you can buy almost anything you want there. They have a Panaderia, You can get yummy baked goods like a concha shell cookies, And packaged baked goods. I'm not sure if they have a bakery on-site or if they have them brought in.But these baked goods are fresh. There is a huge assortment of candies with tamarindo in it and spices that your kids would really like. You will love the flavors also. They sell snacks and they have a huge variety of fresh produce. They have a Carneseria; a meat market. Chicken, Beef, Pork, I am quite positive.They have seafood also. You can come in for candy or tacos.Or buy a piñata. You are walking out.They have above where you can buy.This meat that looks absolutely delicious. I was so full when I walked out from my Posele that I could not buy anymore.
