Asada, al pastaro, chicharron, and birria.
Gerald D.

FINALLY! Authentic delicious tacos, no more tex-mex weird queso that tastes like velveta for me, and you shouldn't put yourself through it either. This place is attached to a gas station, but don't let that deter you or you'll miss out on beautiful hand crafted tortillas and some of the best chicharrons you'll ever have in your life. The owners are very nice, accommodating, knowledgeable and have great service. I spent about 17 dollars on a meal for myself (4 tacos at 3.50 a piece because I got the fancy ones) the drink, and the taxes. Highly recommend visiting here, it's a real gem.

Menu! Amazing food next to the Chevron
Shan S.

This place is attached to the Chevron in downtown Gainesville. It isn't inside the Chevron and has its own entrance. The hand made corn tortilla is unlike anything you have ever had. Gluten free and taste amazing. The tacos are a lot bigger than what I am used to seeing at a quick mexican food place. The chicken tacos were also amazing. I cannot wait to go back and try more items! The family that owns it answered all my questions. Place is amazing.

Vicky's Special - Al Pastor & Chicharonnes
Maddie G.

My partner and I were first timers at Vicky's today but that certainly will not be our last trip in. We were greeted upon entry and given superior service. The restaurant was clean. Unfortunately they were out of Birria by the time we arrived though so instead we had Vicky's Special Tacos. We order one chicken, one carne asada, one al pastor, one chorizo and one chicharrones. There is a self serve salad bar with yummy house made salsa's, onion, cilantro and limes. ALL of our tacos were delicious. I also recommend trying whatever juice they have available. Today was Passion Fruit and man was it refreshing.

Steak bowl with everything + lime, cilantro, green salsa, and onion.

First visit and for some reason, the outside looks like an art gallery. Maybe that's just me, HA!…read moreThey have salads, wraps and warm bowls. A variety of proteins and toppings to choose from. Vegan friendly, which is my fave! Build your own bowl. Wild rice, romaine lettuce, black and pinto beans. Tofu for the protein (cooked fresh and was delectable!). 4 toppings are included. I chose chickpeas, cucumbers, beets and cabbage. Bought 2 additional - edamame and black olives. Chipotle dressing (it's vegan!). This bowl was perfect! You can they use fresh ingredients that are high quality. I love with places have vegan options that they take the time to make delicious. Tofu said it was seasoned, but it was way better than I thought it would be. First time coming here but will definitely be back. Super chill vibe, decently quiet and great customer service! They have feee wifi if you want to work while here or use it just because. My total came to $18 with added toppings and a sparkling water. I don't mind the pricing - you can't compare it to Chipotle and it's in The Square. It's totally worth it! Same owners as Consuelo, which is a few doors down. If you have not be en there yet, run now to dine in!

Really cool place! I met some girlfriends here for lunch and we all had delicious food! It's an…read moreorder at the counter and then sit down kind of place, so definitely more of a casual vibe. We got the chicken tinga bowl and a shrimp bowl. Both were so tasty! We also ordered chips and queso, but it was a little bland compared to the flavorful bowls. Overall very neat and clean with good customer service. Would be good for large groups and families as well!

Fantastic Atmosphere, Food and Service !…read more This is a little gem in Gainesville and so glad we decided to give it a try. Highly recommend and i can rave about their menu as well. Keep up the great job! Will be back next time we visit from Panama City Beach

This was my second time here. Wife & I were really excited about a new place in Gainesville. After…read moreseeing the menu and photos of the inside, I really wanted to like this place. During today's visit around 1:20pm there was a 20 minute wait which was fine. We waited the full length of time and got seated. Our server was very nice and took our drink and food orders quickly. After getting our appetizer (2 biscuits) we waited 50 minutes for our entree. Almost to the point where we weren't hungry. I was sorely disappointed when my meal, the chicken tenders, came out. They were wet, rubbery, and the breading wouldn't stay on. I completely lost my appetite and sent it away with the check. Our waiter offered a complementary dessert, but I came there to eat a meal. After waiting so long for a meal I was not going to waste any more of my day. What was most disappointing was that despite sending back nearly the entire dish, the entrée was still on the bill. Keep in mind this is not a cheap restaurant. In my opinion, when a customer returns 90% of a meal due to quality issues, that item should be removed without having to ask. Overall, we really wanted to enjoy this place, but between the long wait and poor food quality, it missed the mark for us. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.
