We had just finished shopping at a nursery in the immediate area. And I was hungry for rolled tacos. So I found this place on the internet. We did a drive-thru, although there is seating inside this place. The road tacos were probably the best that I have ever eaten. And I think that the prices were very reasonable. I only wish that this place was closer to my home. It's worth to go and try it!

Really good place. We used the drive thru a couple times now and they’re fast :)Food is amazing, it has that Mexican flavor that I miss back home. We’ve ordered the street tacos and my favorites are the adobada and chorizo. The Ham & Milanesa Torta is my favorite so far too.I also ordered a “Al Gusto Burrito” over the weekend and it’s really good.Great service from the chef and the guys, I’ll definitely coming back with my friends.

Dietary restrictions: If you desire a GREAT place to dine in and ENJOY some AMAZiNG MEXiCAN FOOD! This is the SPOT!

If you're in a rush... TACO BELL is down the street!

I would NOT recommend the Taco Shop near TACO BELL! It's changed management several times over the years, and it will NEVER change my mind to ever eat at that establishment!
