The best place I’ve ever been in long time! Their tacos are fresh! The guacamole is amazingly good! It worth the trip every time I come here! Their staff is extremely friendly and amazing too! If I could give them 10 stars, I would!

The best Al pastor I've had. Ingredients are yummy and fresh. The ladies who work there are super sweet. Laidback and open for lunch.

It's my favorite lunch spot. Their burritos are generous and filling. Their sauces are phenomenal, too.

Pretty disappointed. I walked in ordered 3 steak tacos to go. Once I paid I sat down in a chair and under 4 mins later I had my food in hand, felt little off on how quick it was. Well the steak tasted dry, little lack of flavor because it was not cooked to order. I know this cause it had to have been in boil kinda like how you go to Subway and everything is just in containers. I heard no grill noise or sizzling. It sucks cause everyone says the steak tacos are good.The sauces are decent. They are more on the pasty side, not really liquidy like most sauces.I'll give them another Shot down the road.I'm happy I didn't eat there so they didn't see me spit it out.

I had an amazing experience at El Terco Leon! The staff is incredibly attentive and goes the extra mile to address any concerns. The tacos are absolutely delicious, especially when paired with their bomb red salsa. The pricing is reasonable for the exceptional quality of food, and the hand-made tortillas add a special touch. Highly recommend this gem!

I went for an evening snack with my girl and it was worth it. We got burritos and tacos de barbocoa. Burrito sizes are like the good ol' days: big for a decent price. The tacos de barbocoa were full of flavor on homemade tortillas. The only have it during the weekend. Highly recommend.
