I had the Carnitas, Al pastor, and Barbacoa Tacos. I have been a cook/chef for 25 years and these were the most flavorful tacos I have ever eaten. Very friendly owners and staff. Great job Amigos! I will be back!
Best tacos in town hands down
Without a doubt, some of the best tacos I’ve had in Gainesville. I ordered the al pastor, carne asada and carnitas tacos, and every single one was great. The meat was tender and had a lot of good flavor. The al pastor with pineapple and melted cheese on top was especially good. Also, don’t sleep on the fries. They were super crispy and honestly way better than I expected from a taco spot. They’ve also got a salsa bar inside, which was nice. Tried every salsa and all of them...read full review

Taqueria el amigo is a hidden gem that offers delicious Mexican food. The al pastor tacos are a must-try, hitting the spot for real Mexican flavors. The Cuban cake is exquisite, served with tasty Milanese, egg, ham, leg, and fresh cheese. A unique find is the suadero tacos, juicy and tender, with flavorful red, green, and guacamole sauces. The salsa bar is well-kept and a nice touch post-COVID. Customers praise the restaurant for its fast service, cleanliness, and good customer care, with many returning regularly. The broth that comes with the quesabirria is perfectly seasoned and textured, making it stand out. The burrito and barbacoa tacos are also highly recommended, and the restaurant offers many choices of sides, accommodating dietary restrictions. The place is accessible for wheelchairs with easy access to the order desk and restrooms. Despite some variation in taco preparation due to the two rotating cooks, the overall experience remains positive, making Taqueria el amigo a top spot for tasty tacos, flavorful cakes, and a variety of delicious salsas.
