Great service, delicious burrito, and affordable prices. I didn't order it this time, but they had a sign up that said they make their own vegan chorizo, which I will definitely be back to try! Overall great experience, would definitely recommend.
When we first walked into El Taquito, you got the sense of immediate relief. Like if a restaurant could give you a warm hug, a pat on the back, and then whispered in your ear that everything is going to be alright.
The man at the counter taking orders was purely just joy incarnate. As he was taking a family’s order, he looked at the little kid and asked their name. Their eyes lit up as they said their name. He responded “that’s a Spanish name!” and they shared a really beautiful moment. He was no less charming when we placed our order.
Between the two of us we got the shrimp ceviche tostada and six tacos. It was all just barely over $20, which is incredibly affordable. One of the many highlights for me was that they gave me a full sized water cup. It’s a little thing, but that goes a long way. It shows a level of trust and companionship in your customer base. At this point, we hadn’t gotten our food and I was already in love with the place.
Then the food came. Oh boy, lemme tell ya, if that wasn’t the best Pastor taco I’ve ever had you can call my mother and tell her I’m a dirty, dirty liar. The previously mentioned man even brought me a bottle of their SUPER hot salsa, and that stuff doesn’t mess around. It was very hot but VERY good. Their normal salsa was also incredible! Took an already great taco and made it so good I almost cried real human tears.
The vibe, the service, the food. Everything was above and beyond at El Taquito. I don’t know what I did in this life to deserve such a lovely experience, but I won’t ask questions. If you’re wondering whether or not to go here right now, JUST GET IN THE CAR AND GO.
This is a great place to get late night meal. I especially enjoy their burritos and chips with queso. Two of the best items on the menu. You decent food at a decent price. And unlike Taco Bell during the midnight rush, they make quality food with a short wait (5-15 minutes).
This place is always a treat!
Good portions, authentic, and a fair price! I introduced a coworker to here on this visit, and now you have a new customer; she really liked it!
Nice lunch plate for 10/11 dollars. The beef tongue was excellent. Try the rice drink made in house. We will be back.
