We live really close to this little gem, always wanted to try it and FINALLY made it there for lunch today. What a huge loss that we waited so long! Their food is so good. I ordered the 2 carna asada taco lunch special which came with beans and rice. My husband ordered the carnita taco lunch special. The meat was so flavorful and juicy. The rice was fluffy, the beans were topped with melted cheese. We ordered a side of chips and salsa. The chips were warm, crunchy and seemed freshly made. Absolutely amazing lunch.... We will not wait too long to return here to eat.

They did not disappoint. I ordered 3 carne asada tacos & a drink. I was full after 2 tacos. Taco size is bigger than most. No sauce needed. Taco shells were soft with a crisp. Meat very well seasoned. Fresh toppings. Friendly & welcoming staff. Place is very clean. Will definitely return.

Family business, owner down to earth. According to the owner the carne asada tacos are prepared like Mexican street tacos, the tortillas are slight fried. They tasted great!!! Classic hole in wall establishment.

Insanely good tacos - carne asada was the most flavorful I have ever had (including years tracking down the best tacos on the west and east coast). Do yourself a favor: stop by and order, and then thank me later. Cheers.

The nicest, most accommodating man at the register. The best taco I’ve had in 30 years.
Best tacos I've had in years from a restaurant. Rivals those in Matzalan, Mexico. Gusttova is great and a Navy Vet like me. Highly recommend! Ede is a great chef.

Alegría Tacos is a gem — plain and simple. From the second you pull up, you’re met with warmth, not just from the grill, but from the family running the show. These are the kind of people who treat you like you’re already a regular — smiling, generous, and clearly proud of what they’ve built.
Now let’s talk flavor. The al pastor? Unreal. Perfect balance of sweet and heat, with crispy edges that somehow melt in your mouth. The asada is bold and juicy, packed with smoky richness like it just came off a backyard grill in Mexico City. And the chicken — underrated until you try it. Tender, seasoned to perfection, and not just a throwaway option like at most places.
It’s rare to find a spot where you feel just as good after the meal as you did during. Alegría isn’t just serving tacos — they’re serving up pride, hospitality, and real-deal flavor that hits you right in the soul. We can’t wait to go back.
