Amazing!! Highly recommended. Easy to book for an event and the tacos were delicious. Thank you for a great experience! All you need is a table and guests and they bring the rest.

I get to eat here a lot since I work in the area. I like how their customer service is always great and they keep the place neat regularly. Prices are reasonable and they serve sizeable portions.
The food is constantly well prepared and flavorful, employees provides fantastic customer service. I love how clean it is and mood. Will come visit again.
I loved this place because of the tacos and models beer are on the happy hour menu... Nah,just joking...#love#the#taco#
Very good salsas!!
Here's my update... I never met margarita, but she sent two people to prepare food for my brother's wedding. They showed up and started preparing food. We had two other types of food and their food ran out in the beginning. I ordered refried beans and Spanish rice, she sent regular beans and very little Spanish rice. They said all the leftover food would be left at the end of the time allotted. They left a very small portion of meat and rice and beans. They took all the salsa, chips, tortillas... I wish I would have listened to the previous review. It was really disappointing.
Super excited that we booked a last-minute wedding for my brother and Margarita was able to accommodate our date of June 9th. I'm very happy with the customer service already and I'm sure she will deliver on the day of the event!

We have used The Taco Lady- Margarita multiple times for company lunch celebrations and have been extremely happy with the service and food we received for the cost. Remember, this is not a fine-dining restaurant you are dealing with so act accordingly instead of complaining you didn't get 5-star restaurant dining attention- If you are good at explaining what you need and are easy to understand, and follow up prior to your catering date, you should have no issues with your event. Food has always been loved by all guests. Be sure to over estimate your group by at least 5 people, it won't cost you too much more and you will be sure to have left-overs. Make sure you have a table available when they show up to set up and have them come in 15 min. earlier than anticipated to make sure there are no issues finding your venue. They will show up in a small car and you will wonder how in the world they fit everything in side- don't be judgmental, wait to see what they provide before you start being viscous about something you would never be able to, or simply don't want to, pull off. I've personally already scheduled another lunch with The Taco Lady!
SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE....I contiplated writing a review but I after speaking to the owner I was still left dissatisfied.04/04/17 Margarita was recommended to me. I called and s/w Margarita, hired her for my daughter's bday party on 05/27/17 from 2pm-5pm, 60 people. When we spoke she gave me a quote & asked that I call her 3 days before my event with my meat selection.Fast forward to 05/25/17 I called to give my meat selection, Margarita said she didn't have my event that I didn't send her the address via text. I kept a notebook w/all info for her services & other info for my party. I didn't have anything saying that I was supposed to text her. She finally found her my info & agreed to cater my event but only from 2pm to 4pm, I was advised someone would be there at 1:30pm to set up and promised they would leave plenty of warm tortillas and meat, my party would be able to continue to have tacos.Fast Forward. to 05/27/17, a lady showed up 1pm started setting up, at 1:30pm she told me food was ready & that she was leaving at 3:30pm. I told her that was wrong because my party was at 2pm !why would I have food ready 30min prior.? Long story short we argued about it until finally I told her I would call Margarita, I did, Margarita told me the same thing 1:30 to 3:30, after going back & forth she told me they would stay til 4pm.Several guests commented to me that the server was not friendly in fact she was rude. 4 o'clock came and she was packed up and ready to go! I was busy hosting & never thought to see what food she left. NOT one tortilla or meat was left!!!! just the rice, beans, cilantro and onions. I had a few guests show up late and I was so embarrassed I had no tacos to offer them.Fast forward to 05/30/17 I decided to call Margarita and let her know my experience. She was apologetic I will give her that but we than spent 20 min on the phone to tell me about her employees the good, the bad and the ugly. She thanked for calling and not yelping her. She made comments like her employees prefer to cater for 'Americans" they tip better. She complained to me about her employees not following the rules etc.I decided to yelp and review here because at the end of the day I paid $470 and got poor service, not enough food for 60 people. The food was good but I will never use Margarita again or recommend her.
