I love goin to watch games here. Their bartenders Alonzo and Rachel are friendly and top notch. The food is another thing. Great options and variety, but no consistent. I heard their breakfast burrito was the bomb, but mine was not. Potatoes were hard (undercooked) and the chorizo tasted burnt (overcooked). The flavor was their. I wanted to like it, but the texture quality deterred me. I had their asada tacos ad they had some good flavor, but we're a lil dry. I think it's still a new place so I'm sure it needs some time to work out the quirks. I'm just sharing my honest opinion in hopes that it'll fall upon open ears. I will definitely be back

I did not taste any food. This review is done strictly on drinks, service and ambience. This is now home to the SD Cleveland Browns Backers! I went on Sunday to watch my beloved Brownies play. There were so many Cleveland fans. Tacos El Tuerto even plays the Browns games with the sound on!!! This is super exciting if you are a fan living downtown. Even more special...they serve Great Lakes beers! I've never seen GLB around here, ever. They also made an awesome, spicy Bloody Mary. The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. Even though they were packed, I never had an empty drink. Can't say enough great things about this place. I'm so happy they made the decision to be our Downtown Backers Bar. I hope it makes them a lot of money. If you are a Browns fan, this is your spot on Sundays!

Service is awesome, very cool restaurant. The flavors are a little too powerful for my taste. Came here one day for a take out order, the staff is super nice took my order and immediately went to work. They have several TVs in the bar area so you can catch sports while you eat your food. I ordered a few tacos and an appetizer. The food was OK, the flavor was a little too much, it was very salty. Couldn't really taste the actual taco or the ingredients. The meat was also season a little too much I like the ambience, and service was on point. I don't know if I would come here for the food.

Fantastic food...Rachel was friendly and swift on her feet to meet our needs . One thing that killed me is the seating but if I was to go again I would take my bleachers cushion . I'm not a diva I just have a very bad back and nerve pain . Browns gave it their all today .

Food was good. Small portion size. The staff was not very nice.

Pretty good! I live dt and never heard of it so I thought I'd check it out. I believe it's new, so not all the signage is up, but it's right beside Tony's pizza. I had the crispy chicken sandwich and it was really good!

Worst food ever.Typicall Barfood.You must be very drunk to eat their food.I ordered a Shrimp Taco snd a Surf and Turf Burrito to goThe Shrimp Taco had 2 Small Fried Shrimp, some Cabbage and Radish, without flavor.The Surf and Turf was very greasy, had 4 small shrimp, and a greasy filling of burned meat, rice and cheeseMost of my food went into the trash.

Bait and switch! Saw the menu on yelp that mentioned a Vegan Veggie and Tofu Tazone with smoked tofu. Read reviews about how good the tofu was. Sheer disappointment when I received a bowl with little more than lettuce, a sprinkle of corn and few smidgens of pickled onion and jicama in the way of veggies. ??? Then I find out the seasonal veggies I saw in a pic were just for a photoshoot. ?Don't even bother if this is all you can come up with for a veggie option. 1 star for the smoky salsa I had to ask for.
After arriving into town we decided to stop by based on the 4.5 stars. Ordered; 4 blue corn tortilla carnitas tacos 1 shrimp tacos 2 birria ramen And 2 mangonada The blue corn tortilla carnitas tacos- tortilla was under cooked which just fell apart picking it up. The carnitas appeared to be charred and burnt beyond any taste. Carnitas are supposed to be moist and soft not burnt nor crunchy like chicharrones. Shrimp tacos- literally had 2 shrimps. Very bland and soggy. Tortilla was undercooked as well. Birria Ramen- the portion was large and good amount to share if not that hungry. Unfortunately the taste was not there. Bland and needs more taste as birria is full of flavor. The Ramen itself was not cooked before mixing with the rest. Both of my ramens had a big ball of uncooked ramen. Mangonada needed an actual hit of mango. Tasted like a 711 version of a Bloody Mary. Wait time for food was over 20 minutes, which is not that bad but considering the bar was empty and outside street area was empty as well, 20 minute wait is long for not being no where near busy. Overall very disappointing for a 4.5 star rating that it currently has. Please improve and make it worth the 4.5.

They can work on their service a bit . An open seating sign would be great haha instead of having us looked lost and waiting to be seat just to seat ourselves. Shrimp taco was great happy hour every day
