Dirty tables, expensive tacos, and the menu is so confusing. My tacos had recooked meat. Some of it tasted like powder. Oh and you have to put the toppings on the food, even tho thats super gross. The place was cold since they don’t have a vestibule, so every time someone comes in you get hit by cold air. I just don’t understand the point of paying 4$ and some cents on top on a tip just for them to make you dress the food. The people who work there are sweet, but the recooked meat was just disrespectful. Not coming back.

Not coming here again. The hochata tastes old and gross, and the asada is recooked meat with extra seasoning. The meat is falling apart. Also, why do I have to put my toppings?? Never coming here again. Said it twice.

The machetes are good, however they would be better if the had a bit more meat in them.

This place was good back when they first opened. Now they serve you strange dog meat on your machetes. It's not good when you're chewing on cartilage half the time. Stop cutting corners for profit Machetes!! Bring back the quality steak meat! 👎

Too much hype for nothing they just bring you the tacos with no toppings don’t even notify you that you have to go to a self serve section that isn’t even marked to even give you a clue about what your getting yourself into. Like 🫨. I dnt recommend it and i wouldn’t go back for no reason at all

Machetes was an experience I wasn’t expecting—but it completely blew me away. Hidden and unassuming, this place is a true gem serving up some of the most impressive quesadillas I’ve ever had. While the menu offers a variety of options, the real stars are their three sizes of machetes—massive, flavor-packed quesadillas that steal the show. You can choose from The Machete, The Machete Jr., and The Machete Baby, each one filled with your choice of protein and topped to perfection. The toughest decision? Picking just one!
I went with the Machete Jr. with carne asada, and even that felt massive when it landed on my table. A long, freshly made tortilla wrapped around perfectly grilled steak, stuffed to the brim with flavor. But what truly took it over the top was loading it up with every topping available, pickled onions, fresh cilantro, and all three of their house-made hot sauces.
The first bite was out of this world. The tortilla, warm and slightly charred, had that unmistakable homemade texture that held everything together beautifully. The carne asada was tender, juicy, and packed with smoky, savory goodness. The pickled onions added a tangy bite, balancing the richness of the meat, while the cilantro brought in freshness. Then came the sauces—each one delivering a different level of spice and depth, from a smooth heat to an intense, lingering burn that kept me going back for more.
Every element fused together into something unforgettable. The textures, the bold flavors, the heat, it was all just next-level. If you’re looking for a place that serves authentic, no-nonsense, flavor-packed food, Machetes is the spot. I’ll definitely be back, and next time, I might just take on the full-sized Machete!
