Faustinos Taqueria Reviews
Great hidden gem in Des Moines. Great food!
I placed an order through door dash for pickup. It was QUICK! The steak burrito is the best burrito I have ever had! The chicken quesadilla was also a huge hit. I love the individual sauces they had in store so I could try them all! The salsa was absolutely amazing and had such good flavor 🙌🏻
Absolutely love this place! It’s a wonderful atmosphere! I would like to point out the salsa bar! It’s amazing! Like 10 different salsa to try! The staff is absolutely wonderful! The cooks are super nice too! Always running great specials! My personal favorite is taco Tuesday. I get the shrimp tacos. SUPER GOOD! 10/10 in my book.
