The goodie bag of grilled onions and jalapeño was a pleasant surprise. It was all delicious and I am ready to go back for more. The tacos came out very fast and served hot.

There is also a trash can nearby to dispose of any waste. It was chilly out but I ate there since it looked inviting enough. I will be back to try other items but asada tacos are a favorite.

Don't judge a book by its reviews…read more.. I've done some looking at this place and felt very skeptical coming in. I wasn't even sure if I was going to enjoy myself but boy was I wrong. To start off Rafael, at the front was very funny and made it very comforting. He made conversation with us and was very accommodating. We also received free chips and queso which was my daughter's favorite! The place itself is very calm and just seems like a chill spot to come for a quick eat. I ordered the steak tacos and veggie burrito (which Rafael fixed up for me on regular price with no extra charges for adding fries). We enjoyed our food and had a great time. Everything was delicious and Rafael did a great job on making this a good time for us. I wasn't really a big fan of their horchata but they had other good drinks available. I want to add that I feel like we started receiving special treatment because they realized we were yelpies so I don't know how service is on a regular day. Altogether, I'll be coming back here again!

He told us about the menu and even let us try the horchata before purchasing! The customer service was perfection. That alone would bring me back. I thought the horchata was great but ended up getting the sangria (non alcoholic). The quesobiria was fireeeee and came with grilled onions and a pepper. For 2 tacos, menudo sauce, a drink, onion, and pepper, it was about 10 dollars. That is extremely reasonable! We also enjoyed the interior because it felt home like. My favorite part was the chips and queso, which was the perfect balance of creamy and salty.

Our food had clearly been sitting for a bit because the queso had started to congeal and some chips were already soggy when they hit the table. There was enough queso, but the other toppings were pretty sparse. The picture attached is my plate with no protein and extra pico and sour cream, which cost 30 cents each. Also note the large chunk of tomato in the pico- about an inch long and an inch wide. My husband had a similar chunk in his. He got his with brisket, and there wasn't a ton of tha either. It IS a large portion of chips and an acceptable amount of queso, but in general the dish was vastly overpriced. As always, the people were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were clean, but the nachos are a big no from us. Edit: I have bumped my review up from two stars to four. Torchy's reached out to us and DID make it right. While we had a bad experience, they took action to make it up to us, and that deserves to be commended! We do love Torchy's and will be back. I respect them for going out of their way to make things up to their customers.

That said, the fried avocado is amazing. I'm obsessed with avocados and I've honestly never seen fried avocado offered like that before. I couldn't handle it on a taco with all the heat of sauces and pico, but on its own it was still super delicious and worth ordering. None of the other sauces I could try ended up working for me either, so I felt pretty limited unless I went kids menu. The restaurant itself wasn't too busy and it was pretty clean, but the staff seemed like they didn't really want to be there. When I asked questions to try to work around my diet limits, they weren't very willing to explain options. If you love spice, you'll probably have a great time here. If you're heat sensitive or have dietary limits, it might be a rough pick. If you like avocado, try that fried avocado!

I got a burrito with zesty chicken, Carnitas stuffed with Chara beans, Mexican rice and your traditional herbs and veggies for $10 with a side of refried beans for an extra $2.79 (I used my own plating for this post). Everything tasted fine , but I will say there was more rice than protein this time around and they were a little chintzy on the amount of refried beans. I was expecting two or three times as much for a full side instead of the lil' souffles worth. Next time I'll probably skip the burrito, kick the beans to the curb and stick with their excellent empanadas or flautas.

They even have a little robot that brings your food to you. All drinks are self serve and they have horchata. The empanadas were good, you get 3, only downside was it was a little plain and would benefit from cheese and some seasoning for the chicken. Everything is customizable which was nice. The burrito was huge and tasty. The rice bowl was also a big serving and was tasty as well. The chicken in the bowl was seasoned and good! Their chile verde has been the best I've ever had. Staff was kind, building was very clean! They have an option to order online through a QR code and you put in the table number. Will definitely be coming back!

They did use the most important aspect of chips and salsa, that being to give each person their own bowl of salsa, so you can double dip. On to drinks. They have various flights. We got the flight of 3 margaritas. They have a big selection of flavors. Also, the flight glasses come in 2 sizes. We got the small glasses. The drinks were very good. They had a flight of 4 tacos. The tacos are semi rolled up and put in short glasses. It comes with rice, beams, guac, pico and a few other items. We got 2 steak and 2 pastor. Both of them had a lot of meat. The steak was really flavorful and tender. The pastor was more spicey than we prefer. I really liked this concept. We also got a chicken quesadilla. The picture of it does not give it justice. It was really good with lots of meat and chicken. Overall, a fun place with good food. Give it a try with the various flights of drinks and food.

There was barely any of the other ingredients -- just a tiny amount of beans and corn shoved into the corner. I was honestly shocked at how different this location was compared to Olathe. I almost took it back, but leaving work again during lunch just wasn't realistic, so I tried to eat what I could. Most of it ended up in the trash. NO guacamole which comes on the bowl. Highly disappointed overall. I also work with and interact with a lot of people daily, and I will definitely be spreading the word around my company about this experience.

- A Hidden Gem for True Taco Lovers -…read more (Maria makes tamales on Thursdays - must reach out directly for preorders) I had the absolute pleasure of stumbling upon El Taco Riendo and meeting the warmest, most welcoming family -- Jasmine, Maria, and their kind crew. From the moment I walked up to their bright and inviting food truck (parked conveniently in the Kohl's parking lot), I could tell this was going to be something special. Let's start with the food -- these are hands down some of the freshest tacos I've ever had. The tortillas? Nemo's fresh and made daily, soft yet perfectly sturdy to hold generous portions of meat and toppings. The meat? Juicy, seasoned to perfection, and cooked with the kind of care you can only get from people who truly love what they do. And the salsa -- oh, the salsa! Vibrant, layered in flavor, with just the right amount of heat. You can taste the passion and tradition in every bite. One thing that stood out to me was how clean and organized their truck was. As someone who eats at a lot of food trucks, I really notice when a place takes pride not only in their food but also in their space -- and El Taco Riendo sets the bar high. Everything from the prep area to the condiments station looked spotless, and that just adds to the confidence you feel ordering here. It's not just about the food though -- it's the experience. Jasmine and Maria greet you like old friends, remembering faces and making every customer feel valued. Their hospitality feels effortless, and that's rare in a world where so many places rush you through the process. If you want to support a small, local business that's serving up authentic flavors with heart, El Taco Riendo is it. You're not just getting tacos -- you're getting a little taste of their family's love and pride on a plate.
