“Great place! We come here a couple of times a month. Every time has been great. Food is always hot and delicious. Our server Ricky is always top notch. And don’t forget the 32 ounce Margarita’s! The whole crew does a great job with a great atmosphere. Highly recommend this place!“
“This is the best Mexican restaurant in the area. Their food is awesome, very flavorable. Add that to the off the charts service, I refuse to go anywhere else for Mexican cuisine. I eat there at least 2 times a week. My drink is never empty. There is always bubbling laughter and great music. It is always meticulously clean. With mouth watering aromas to tantalize your appetite. You have got to try it.“
“Stopped by tonight since it's Taco Tuesday. My 15 year got an all in burrito & I had the street corn. He wanted me to write the burrito was "bussin". That's a great compliment coming from a teenager! The street corn was delicious & authentic. We will definitely be back to try more.“
“This food truck is better than the vast majority of restaurants I've been to. The pastor is amazing. The quesadillas were on point. The walking tacos are great and at a good price point for portion size. I would highly recommend Los Dos Carneles.“
“Food was top notch and authentic.Location was super chill and relaxing for a quick meal especially if you have a dog.Owners were extremely kind and sweet and even gave our dog a couple tacos on the house.Definitely saving this place and returning frequently“

“Love the art of the place, but more importantly the food. We got a chimichanga, street taco of chicharron and I got the cerdo plate, highly recommended if you're doing lazy keto. They allowed us a couple of substitutions at not charge. On Sunday they have a margarita pitcher at a good price, good for 4 glasses. It was not a super busy, so service was fast even outside. Price was fair. We will definitely come back! ???“
“Best Barria we have had in a long time!! It melted in our mouths ? and the portions were so filling. José served us with class and style. Thank you for an amazing first time visit! We cannot wait to come back again soon!! We forgot to take a picture and our food was gone in minutes. ?“
“We stopped by here one day, decided to try this place out. First of all our server was amazing and extremely attentive. The food was pretty good. I’ve had better, but the food was pretty decent, but the great service we received made up for any issues we had at all. We loved her so much we were trying to get her to come work at a restaurant near where we lived so we wouldn’t have to drive so far to get to have such great service again the chicken taco was good but could’ve used a little more cheese and the chicken enchilada was good but needed more cheese and more sauce but like I said, the service was amazing she apologize she asked us to please try it again and we probably will. The servers name was Jackie … my husband was impressed and he is never impressed !!!!“

“We impulsively swung by Gordo's, enticed by glowing Yelp reviews, and boy, were we in for a treat! Stepping inside, the ambiance was positively radiant, with decor that danced with whimsy. Our taste buds were tantalized by the burrito that arrived promptly, bursting with freshness and flavor, just what the doctor ordered. Portions were so generous that we easily shared. When we requested a particular brand of tequila, not in their list , the bartender assured us it would grace their shelves by next week. This place is an absolute gem! Don't dally; make sure to drop by soon.“
“Best Mexican food(truck) in Jax! I LOVE their chicken burritos (the burritos are generous!) tacos (all of them) and chicken tortas.On top of delicious food, the owners are nice people. We’ve gone so often, they know our order and they’re always kind to my kids.Prices are average and well worth it cause the food is that good!I’m always too busy eating my food to remember to take a picture… Highly recommend! Run to this food truck. You won’t be disappointed!“
“This place was absolutely amazing. Everything we ate was fresh and really good, especially the guacamole and Carne Asada fries. The street tacos are definitely worth trying and I got the Barbacoa. It was just... so great. My husband and I will be back very soon and I promise to tell everyone I know how great it is. Right off Blanding, it was a very chill lunch spot. ??Kid-friendliness: I bet kids would like it here and the booths have space to bring groups along with outdoor seating.“
“This place blows Chipotle and Moe’s. It is so good. The seasoning is just right. So many options to choose from. The Philly however, oh my goodness, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. This place definitely knows how to throw down a real Burritto!!! You must try!“
“Easily the best of all the Cantina Louie’s! Victoria, Alex, Will, Oxford, CJ, Amanda, and all the staff are excellent! Service is the best you will find at a chain type restaurant. Victoria does an amazing job running her store and her team! Food is great, I’ve personally eaten there well over 100 times and I’ve never left disappointed. If you find yourself hungry on long leaf stop in to see the team and get some tacos. Keep up the great work! ❤️ Dave and Jeff“
“Absolute 10/10 restaurant!!First off, the atmosphere is lovely. I truly feel like this place must’ve been curated by some famous interior designer. The decorations are beautiful, from beautiful light fixtures to painted porcelain tables! I’m obsessed!!Secondly, the food is truly truly delicious. This place deserves to win awards! I had the beef tacos and I was shocked how delicious they were. Truly impressed.Thirdly, the service is amazing. Everyone greeted us with a smile and tried to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. Our server, Olivia, was wonderful! She was so attentive to our table and food. She also noticed it was my birthday and gave us free desert and drinks to go!!I had a wonderful time here. I’m saving this restaurant, so I can come back again as soon as possible!!Never have I ever recommended a place so heavily!! ✨✨✨✨“

“This was our first time at Las Tapatias Mexican restaurant and 4 of us dined in last evening. The dinners were all so good and very authenticity prepared Mexican cuisine! I had Barria Cabrito and this is the only place outside of Texas that I have found Cabrito and it was fantastic. However, the menue stated braised goat chunks and it was actually prepared as barbicoa but still delicious, served with rice, beans, home style corn tortias, chopped onions and cilantro! All 4 of us loved the experience and we will definitely return very soon to try the Caldos!Tim“
“They serve you fresh chips and salsa the minute you walk in. They serve juicy fajita tacos, birria and banging veggie tacos (corn tortillas). The hosts are lovely to their customers and very accommodating. It was their food truck that pulled me to their brick and mortar store. Great spot for a Friday evening with friends.Vegetarian options: All veggie options include roasted zucchini, broccoli, onions, peppers & squash and topped with cotija cheese.“
“This is a great restaurant! If you have not been I highly recommend! I go here once a week and it is hamds down the best authentic Mexican food you can get and they got a neat little grocery side now also! Definitely worth a try! I recommend the chicken burrito, pollo fundido, and queso and chips, there salsa and chips are amazing also“
“This place is wonderful, good food, the atmosphere and the decoration were super pleasant to look at and if it is about pleasant then it is worth highlighting the attention of the waitress Gloria, super professional , we loved the experience and to a large extent it was because her service to “

“Yordis, the manager is amazing!! I can not praise him enough! I ordered online and had door dash deliver it to me, unfortunately they delivered the wrong food to me but Yordis corrected the order and was so apologetic and polite. He couldn't get door dash to deliver the corrected order to me so he personally delivered the food himself!! I'm amazed at the customer service and have never dealt with this level of customer service. Just.. AMAZING! Not to mention the fact that the food is soooo delicious!! Definitely the best Mexican I've had in years! If I could rate more than just 5 stars, I most certainly would!! Great food, exceptional customer service! ❤️“
“The food was delicious. I mean, salsa was fresh, the entree was amazing, and they surprised me with the dessert. The price was appropriate for the amount of food they serve (value on the dollar). The waitress was super attentive, and the ambiance was great for a casual Valentine's date with my wife. I will definitely be coming back as it has become my favorite Mexican restaurant. La comida estaba exquisita. La salsa era fresca, el plato principal estaba delicioso y me sorprendieron con el postre. El costo fue excelente por la porciones que te sirven (valor del dinero). La mesera fue muy atenta y el ambiente fue apropiado para una cena casual de San Valentin con mi esposa. Definitivamente regresaré porque se convirtieron en mi restaurante mexicano favorito.“
“As a visitor from Kansas on the last day of winter, a seat outside on the covered veranda was a welcome treat. You can never go wrong with a burrito or some fajitas. Top notch food and customer service. Plenty of shopping in Town Center to walk it off!“
“We had an excellent lunch, never disappoints. Enjoyed their quest as an appetizer. Then I had a chicken and rice bowl, and my friend had a steak and rice bowl. Food had a good taste and was hot when it arrived. Service was quick and good during our meal.“
“From all the Salsas in Jacksonville this is the best one. Almost every weekend we travel from Orange Park to St. John’s to eat here. The servers are great and the food is delicious. The manager and his wife are very friendly and hospitable. My favorite plate is the chicken and shrimp fajitas and they always prepare them the way I like them. Give this Salsas Restaurant at Durbin Pavilion a try, you won’t regret it!“
“Los Loros is a pretty good Mexican restaurant overall. Their level of customer service is superb. The waitress we had was very attentive and courteous. The food was fresh. The only issue I had with the restaurant is that their take on Mexican food is more like home cooked Mexican rather than the restaurant taqueria-style that I tend to prefer. For example, their take on Mexican rice also includes corn, carrots, and lima beans. I prefer just rice instead. The carne asada was also a bit chewy but, overall, the flavor was good.Los Loros also has Chile Rellenos which are quite generous compared to other restaurants. My only critique is that they should probably cook the pablano chilies a bit longer as they were slightly chewy.On a positive note, the salsa they serve with the chips was awesome. They serve a blended salsa rather than the chunky stuff you find at other places. It was quite delicious. They also have a spicier salsa that they will provide you although, unlike other places, they charge $2 if you ask for it.I would definitely recommend checking this restaurant out as their food is pretty tasty overall.“
“New to the area. Impromptu stop while out doing errands.. I was about 4 minutes away from full HANGRY mode. Ordered 4 tacos con carnitas, 1 burrito al pastor, red sauce, green sauce, 1 coke, and 1 horchata.YOOOOOOOO!! Will ? make the 25 minute drive back down here! Flavorful, authentic, not greasy at all. Even my Texican gave his approval ?Can’t wait to come back!! ????“
“Munchies is amazing!!! They serve huge delicious portions! It was so very delicious and a perfect way to start the weekend! Highly recommend the sandwiches! Everything we ordered was exactly perfect and better than expected! Yummy yummy yummy!!!!“

“Place is so great that I go way more than i should and have gained some weight because of it, but it's my favorite local Mexican food, and the service has always been great. So great in fact, that I recognize someone on here that always used to come in until he got kicked out for derogatory comments towards the staff for not giving him "special treatment"I've heard the guy loudly proclaim how much money he's spent there on five or six different occasions (I kid you not), but still kept coming back everyday for some reason. That tells me even more-so, that there's something great about this place.“
“Came here last night with another couple. We always ask for Alex. As long as we have been coming here , Alex has worked here. He always greets us very warmly. We always ask for him specifically. He goes above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need. He also is sensitive to the atmosphere at our table and gives us plenty of time throughout our meal. I only got one picture as we were hungry! We both got the Molcajete which is our go to dish when we come here.“
“I already have a favorite Mexican spot, then I went here for a lunch date with the hubby and now I have two favorite spots! The food here is amazing! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I remembered to take a picture half way through my meal. If you love Mexican food, this restaurant is a must! I went on Wednesday and they had 2 for 1 margaritas! BONUS! I enjoyed their mango margarita. Prices are good! Food is great! Must try!“

“Everything was just as it should be, steak was thinly sliced, Jalapeno Bacon Cheese dip is fabulous!I read other reviews, if you expect a thick steak at a Mexican restaurant, change and go to a steakhouse. Who orders ice cream on a delivery order? Probably the same people that don't tip. Really???“
“I’ve been here a billion times, and these folks refuse to produce anything but pure excellence. The food is always fresh, delicious, and you get more than you pay for. You could absolutely eat off the floor here, and the staff is amazing. My server Gianna was nothing shy of a saint. I’ve had Mexican/Tex-Mex in 13 states, and this is hands down the best.“
“They have seating outside, didn’t wait long. We got a taco, the salsa is so good. I’m usually prefer red salsa but they had green. I think it paired with the taco perfectly. First time coming and I usually am weird with getting food from food trucks because of a past experience. But definitely coming back. Funny enough a store near by was playing Latin music which really helped the atmosphere.Wheelchair accessibility: I didn’t use my wheelchair today, didn’t need it. But the window to pay is higher than I can reach with my limitations but my spouse can. There is nothing on the ground that could possibly prevent mobility. They did bring our food out which is great for accommodations.“
“I have to give five stars all the way to this place. The food was hot and did not take long to get food or drinks. Family owned and operated. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Everyone there from owners on down hustle. Every Thursday all day, $2,50 margaritas. Looks like a day off. Big portion servings big “
“This place has the Best rice and refried beans I have ever had. But, besides that, they are also a convenience store. only thing is that everytime I order steak they always give me pork.. At least they have a bar. They only serve beer though.“
“I am from Tucson, Arizona which has just been voted number one as a city for having fantastic Mexican food. Tucson is very close to the border of Mexico and the Mexican food is exquisite. I have gone to many Mexican restaurants here, because I miss the food so much, and nothing tastes like Sonoran Mexican food as La Nopalera does. I went to lunch the other day and my server was a man by the name of Oscar. The food was beyond perfect, the restaurant is spotlessly clean and the ambiance was wonderful! I loved every second of my lunch and my visit to this restaurant and will go back again and again. This is true Sonoran-style Mexican food!!! Thank you, Oscar, and La Nopalera!!!“

“The food was seasoned but the rice and beans wasn't only readon I gave 4 stars on food! The guy who took our order was nice, helpful and explained what we didn't understand so 5's for everything else. They have seating inside and in front of building. They have a takeout window also. Will definitely be returning because the meat was seasoned juat need more flavor in rice and beans. Ate too quickly and didn't get any pictures.“
“Great service. I’m long time friends with the Ramirez sisters. I wouldnt recommend going to this establishment with a company like A+ Gutters. They work with state correctional officers and are a bunch of police playing with satellites. Jon & Chris thought they were funny and caused disruption. Home wreckers. La Nop has Phenomenal food and excellent service.“
“Great food and service. They have the usual Mexican restaurant dishes as well as some I’ve not heard of before I had a dish called Maritas and it was delicious. Everyone else in my group enjoyed their food as well. If you are craving tex-mex definitely check this place out.“
“This is now our go to Taco Bell, now that it's opened. So far we have had a very good experience going here, hey have always gotten our order right, and the food has always been fresh and hot. My wife loves Taco Bell, so I imagine we will continue to eat here at least once a month for a long time to come!“
“We had such an awesome family dinner here tonight. Food was amazing as usual, and the queso is a great shareable size. The manager even came by to chat with us, he couldn’t have been kinder about redeeming a certificate we had. Awesome service, great tacos and atmosphere. Best salsa ever! Can’t wait to go back!“
“This review was in 2019, read below for updated review. I read the reviews, and the one common thing I read was that the service sucked. Yet we still went. I actually was expecting bad service. Not only was the service bad, it was worse than I thought it was going to be. We ordered food, and after that order, we didn't see the waitress until our food was done. We were low on chips and out of salsa and soda. I also wanted a tv channel changed, but I didn't even bother as they couldn't get the restaurant part right. Well, let's talk about the food. Salsa was better than some places, but the fact it's called Salsas, it's a shame it's not the best. Entrees weren't spectacular. Like someone else mentioned, their beans are "watery" is an accurate description. Chicken had a funny taste. We will not be back.2022-June review: well let's just say service has definitely gotten better. Which made the experience much better. Decent place for a meal. Prices are reasonable and portions were plenty. Salsa was great! And the spicy salsa was even better! Love it. I'll be back. I'm glad I gave this place another go. Dining chairs were too heavy for me to move around, as I had kids so I had to keep getting up and down. Other than that it was a great idea.Update 09-06-2022: other than the rude/not happy to be there wait staff, everything else was good. I say that as the staff we got really should no be a waitstaff. Didn't come around much unless we asked other happy staff members or really flagged them down. I also don't think she was having a bad day. i think that was just her. Update 01-31-24 Jessica was an absolute angel. She got our drinks right away, food was a delight. We ordered the mix fajitas for 2. It was a very reasonable size dish. Salsa and chips seem to be lacking. It used to be better, but seems watered down now. Sorry for the pictures of our food half eaten, but we were hungry.“
“I’m not into Mexican food but this place has changed my view. The food taste very fresh. The decor is absolutely amazing. The waitresses were beautiful and friendly and very attentive. The cerviche taste absolutely amazing and the tacos were out of this world. We will definitely come again.“
“I wish I took pictures! Everything was delicious. Between my husband and I we swapped a lot of things, so I lose track of what we actually ordered. But I can say that the food was great. The service was OK. Not great. Ambience was as expected for a Tijuana Flats.“
“Always hit this location for our Mexican Food fix, and they never disappoint! The food is excellent and the staff is always courteous. Consistency is the word that comes to mind when describing this La Nopalera restaurant, as I always order the same dish, and it's awesome every time. We are partial to this particular location, although they have several other locations in Jacksonville.“
