“Might be biased but I absolutely love this place. I’ve been to many different Pancheros and this one just always seems to hit the spot. The place itself is a little dry but I guess we have to be the ones to entertain ourselves sometimes or else you might just be boring. 9.7/10 definitely recommend!!“

TNT's Tacos N' Tortas Tacos • $
3441 86th St, Urbandale - 10.37 miles

“The prices seemed a bit high, but that was before we got our food. My wife got the carne asada burrito and I got the torta cubana (pictures posted) they were huge! We also got to choose three small salsa options to go with our dishes, and then we ordered the chips and salsa as well, so we got to try all but one of the salsas they offer. They were all really good. I particularly liked the habañero, even though it was almost more like a queso dip (a bit thicker) than the roja and verde.
Also got a passion fruit agua fresca. If you've never tried passion fruit you really should. I fell in love with it while living in the Caribbean, and it's hard to find by itself, but it was excellent. If nothing else, I'll be back for that!
As you can see from the photo of my sandwich, the Cubana is a bit messy, but totally worth it. The guacamole was fantastic, and it surprisingly went well with the mustard, egg, tomato, and jalapeños. I wouldn't have thought so, but it really worked.
We love trying new places, especially local restaurants, and this is one we'll definitely go back to, to try more of their menu items.
A flavor explosion indeed!“

The experience didn't end there; we were delighted to discover an attached market where we couldn't resist grabbing some cookies and dessert to enjoy at home, extending the deliciousness of our visit.“
