15 Best Taco Restaurants in Tempe

“Dinner here felt like I was in Tijuana! The service and food are exquisite. Erika took my order she spoke Spanish to me, it felt like I was in Mexico. Awesome experience! She gracefully helped me choice the meat I wanted in my tacos. I had Carne Asada and El Pastor tacos. The beer here is ice cold. The salsas are fresh. The bathrooms and environment well kept, super clean. I highly recommend their service, food, and ice-cold beer.“

“Buenos los tacos de pescado“

“Muy ricos muy mexicanismos“

“Kyle is the greatest bartender, listen, when going to a bar, a drink is a drink. But the guy makes the experience! Nicest guy ever and serves drinks well. An employers dream I'm sure LOL! At 60 years old I can tell a good apple! He is the creme of the crop!“

“Excellent!!! Bursting with flavor, the menudo and mini tacos did not disappoint!!! Great customer service and clean dining! Alex was very nice!!!“

“Food was delicious. The carne asada tacos were delicious. The manager made the win when he gave an extra portion of rice for my kids when he saw they were splitting the kids meal. Only complaint I had is that the chips were on the salty side. Will definitely be back.“

“I had trouble deciding what to eat for lunch while attending a conference at the Double Tree Tempe. I drove by The Taco spot and decided to stop and give them a try. I food is absolutely cooked to order and is delicious. The service person Miguel and all four cooks are amazing. I can’t get over how much I enjoyed the food in such an unassuming place. I’ll definitely recommend for good Mexican food.

Gracias!“

“We stopped here for supper for the first time expected normal Indian fare, but I was intrigued by the Indian fusion dishes, so we tried the chicken Tikka pizza and was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. I expected it to be good but it was really good, and different than traditional pizza. It's definitely a dish you should try if you like Indian food and pizza. The crust actually tastes good. To me, most pizza crusts are just ok. Not bad but nothing special.“

“The al pastor burrito is my favorite!
It's a much healthier alternative to most other Mexican spots - you don't feel heavy/sick after eating. There isn't a pool of grease sitting on the bottom of the burrito like you experience elsewhere.“

“Stumbled upon this place on our way home, and I’m so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and laid-back, which made it the perfect stop to wind down. The bartender was not only friendly but also incredibly helpful in guiding us through their beer selection. I really appreciated how attentive he was in helping us choose something that matched our tastes. it made the experience feel more personalized.

We decided to order some food to go with our drinks, and let me just say, it did not disappoint. The toritos were flavorful, super filling, and definitely hit the spot. You could tell they take pride in both their drinks and their food, which is always a win in my book.

All in all, it was one of those unexpected stops that turned out to be a great find. Between the great service, tasty food, and solid beer options, I would absolutely come back. not just to try more beers, but to explore more of the menu too. Highly recommend giving this place a try if you’re in the area!“

“Forget all the other taco shops around!!! Best fast Mexican food that is so fresh!! Food is cooked w love and is absolutely delicious!!! 10/10“

“El Jefe supported (donated) a very generous breakfast to our Veterans appreciation group this morning. Julio’s team was extremely helpful and fun to work with - and the food was delicious! I can’t wait to have a dine in experience with them the next time I’m in Awhatukee!“

“Nice very small carniceria. The meat and hot food selection looks like the biggest thing that pulls people in, but they do have some essentials and lots of drinks. I ordered near the food before noticing the menu over the register. I guess you should order at the register first. But they got me sorted out no problem. Great to have in the neighborhood.“

“Love the food, excellent service! Every single employee is very nice, food is served warm and fresh!“

“cool people ... excellent job very clean“
