They did a wonderful job accommodating our large party, and the side room in the new space was perfect for the occasion. I've dined at TAQ before and have always enjoyed their tacos, so I was excited to see brunch tacos on the menu. They did not disappoint. Both were delicious, and I especially loved the Blanco and the chorizo. I'm already looking forward to coming back to enjoy the patio, which has always had some of the best vibes off Main Street. TAQ continues to impress -- highly recommend.

Been here twice, once at the original location and now recently at the old Avalon spot. Had…read moredifferent tacos each time and wasn't impressed on either occasion. The ambiance is kind of a sterile, trendy vibe, but not in a good way? They have the Love Island neon signs in the bathroom (and the awful Dyson air blade hand dryer sinks that just blow gross public sink water into your face unexpectedly) and it feels like it's toeing the line between wanting to be upscale and also accommodate the college crowd. I don't know. I could forgive all the weird vibes if the food were better. I will say their tacos are quite large; so don't expect a typical street taco. I had a hard time eating three and I'm a pretty hungry person. So I'd order two, especially if you have any kind of app or side. I would not order the mahi mahi one again. There was SO MUCH (bland) fish in there it fell apart. The pastor was pretty typical, and the camarones (shrimp) one wasn't bad, but it was kind of like a shrimp salad concoction vs a fried shrimp or ceviche kind of application. And they were like teeny mini shrimp. It was well-flavored, though. My Paloma mocktail was solid! Expensive, though, for something without booze in it. Our server was very sweet but perhaps overly attentive, stopped by (not kidding) like 12 times to refill our waters after we'd taken barely a sip. We were well hydrated but chuckling at the constant disruption.

My friend absolutely loved his burrito and could only finish half because it was so filling. The guacamole was really good, though my chips were a little stale during this visit. I'd definitely come back and try something different next time because the overall experience and service were very positive.

Not sure the trick yet to track the truck down. However, they do also have scheduled pop-ups at Mothfire Brewery and HOMES Campus which are great opportunities to get these tacos! (Both Mothfire and HOMES publishes their food truck schedule weekly! I find it on their Instagram pages.) Tried a few tacos and a quesadilla and will say the tacos are definitely the standout IMO. Seems like you really can't go wrong with any flavor/meat. Tacos come with onion, cilantro, lime, and a little bit of salsa on the side. Super tasty and flavorful meat. Absolutely recommend! I don't think they take credit card but do take Venmo in addition to cash.

The server was scared of them too and kinda ran off (don't blame her), but we requested to be moved inside it was very uncomfortable. Water wasn't refilled and neither were our chips. The swole bowl was decent, but extremely rice-heavy and so was my friend's build your own bowl. The chicken in the bowl was dry though. I really liked the dips we got in the three bud, and my friends liked their tacos a lot. Prices were reasonable. Overall: an okay place to sit indoors and eat tacos, but wouldn't recommend doing anything else. Beware of many bees!!!!

I really did not have high expectations for a Midwest Mexican restaurant, but here I stand, mostly…read morecorrected. Miny's is an Ann Arbor staple. A small taco shop in a nondescript strip mall, Miny's is turning out some seriously impressive and authentic tacos on par with places I love in Southern California. My friends and I swung by around dinnertime and while it was not crowded, there was a steady flow of customers and take-out orders. There is no dining area, but there are tables outside where one can sit and eat. I ordered 3 tacos: al pastor, cabeza, and Cameron, with spicy salsas on the side. The total was about ~$13. The first thing that stood out to me was the size. These were some hefty tacos, lovingly double-wrapped in pliable, warm, corn tortillas and neatly packaged for takeout. Salsa can be hit or miss but the salsas here were SO GOOD. Made in-house, they add the perfect moisture and flavor to each bite. Their green salsa has a mild, tingling kick, and tastes very rich and refreshing. The orange creamy salsa, however, stole the show. It is spicier than the green, and has a super addicting smokiness that enhances, but doesn't overpower, every bite. I was bright red and sweating but could not put this salsa down. The al pastor taco was my favorite. Sweet, soft, smoky pork with the crunch and freshness of onions and cilantro, drenched in the above salsas, simply divine! I wish it had come with pineapple for a pop of sweetness, but it was still a super good taco. I was thrilled to see that Miny's offered cabeza and lengua, as they are cuts of meat less familiar to the average American diner. I opted for cabeza and was greeted with a pile of soft, collagen-rich meat, bursting with juice and oil. The meat by itself is definitely a bit bland so the salsas did the heavy lifting in terms of flavor. The gooey-soft texture though, that was all due to the perfectly cooked meat. This was a pricier taco than the Al pastor, and there was definitely a bit less meat than in the Al pastor, but still a very good taco. The shrimp taco impressed me the least. The shrimp were unseasoned and looked to be boiled. While bouncy and tender cooked in this way, I prefer the char and juiciness of grilled shrimp in my tacos. In addition, I tend to expect my seafood tacos to have a slaw on them, versus the standard onions and cilantro. With the salsas, this taco was fine, but I would not order it another time. A very healthy but uninspired taco. Overall, for where it's located and what it is, Miny's does some amazing tacos, though I will probably skip the seafood ones next time. I will be DREAMING of that orange salsa, and now understand why on their menu, they sell it by the carton.

He did this because the standard meat portions are pretty small, but the flavors are fantastic!! I got the veggie burrito and I loved it as well. Service was great and it was very nice inside.

My husband got a medium with Cookie Monster and strawberry cheesecake and I got a small ferrero rocher ice cream. They were phenomenal and I genuinely can't stress enough how much they fill the cups with ice cream. Amazing flavors and really kind customer service at the ice cream counter as well. I really recommend Dos Hermanos Express. You will love it!

I'm big on ordering enough for multiple meals so I went with the nachos and a kid's steak quesadilla and got 3 meals out of the deal! The kid's portion came with two mini quesadillas and a side of rice and they were definitely generous with the steak portions! They had hearty chunks of steak, perfectly cooked and seasoned, surrounded by a nice melty cheese. Really tasty! For my nachos I went with the carnitas though I think they may have accidentally given me the al pastor as I bit into more than a few chunks of pineapple, which honestly was not my favorite when blended with the other elements of the nachos. I'd definitely get them again but I think I'd pick a different protein just in case. Probably the steak since it was so good in the quesadillas. I went through less than half of the nachos since they were a huge portion and tucked away the rest in the fridge for the next day. Sure, nachos don't always reheat great but I tossed mine under the broiler to crisp everything back up and then added some fresh chips on the side and it was perfect. I still had a few leftovers even after that and took the rest of it and added an egg on top for a makeshift chilaquiles dish! Pretty good! My one regret was not trying the churros but I'll definitely be doing that the next time!
