We LOVE Taqueria Invicto, that's why it's sad for me to write this review; maybe there is new ownership/management. We hadn't been to Taqueria Invicto in a few months and were missing the yummy tacos and horchata (both of which are great). Unfortunately though, this time things were not great. Our order was wrong in three different ways and we had to almost argue with the staff to get it right.
TLDR: Our order had three mistakes in it and required us going back and forth with the staff to eventually get it right. Exhausted, I didn't even bring up the third mistake because at that point I just wanted to eat and leave.
Full story: We ordered three combo meals with horchata to drink. Immediately one horchata is called for us. A few minutes later, the taco meal comes out but it's only meat on the tortilla, no garnishes. I had removed the sauces when I ordered but left the cilantro and onion. But the tacos were completely naked. When I brought this to their attention, the woman spent 10-20 seconds scanning her copy of my receipt. Presumably this was done to point out that it was my fault for ordering wrong (which I didn't) but it would have been quicker just to put the cilantro and onion on there which she eventually did. No apology, no recognition of the error, whatever it's fine. That is corrected so I ask about our other two horchatas they say it's coming up. I sit down. A minute to two later, our number is again called, my wife goes up to get other two meals and the horchatas, but only one horchata is ready for us. My wife says there should be two, the worker says she already gave us the other horchatas and again starts scanning the receipt. The worker starts speaking Spanish to another worker telling her she gave us all of our drinks (my wife is fluent and understood). My wife says (in Spanish) no, there are supposed to be three, and the second worker shows the first all three on the receipt. So we finally get our third drink. This was three combo meals, should be obvious that each has a drink. As I'm eating I realize that the corn tortilla was not fully cooked, but by this time I've already taken a bite, don't want to argue with the staff again, so just dealt with it.
We've never had such a poor experience here and were left disappointed. Like I said we love Taqueria Invicto but if this is how the place operates now, we'll have to start looking for another restaurant with good tacos and horchata.

You have to try this place. Really good food and real Mexican food. Margaritas and beer only $3. The salsa bar is legit. You can tell they make it fresh.

Delicious! Had a few tacos and a $3 margarita. The shrimp taco was amazing! Really great corn tortillas. My husband who is celiac was able to find plenty of gluten-free options.

Loved the Cali burrito which had, among other things, french fries in it!! And the $3 margaritas and beers were delicious! It wasn't immediately clear that you have to order on the tablets in the corner, but it was easy once we figured it out.

Their food is always good, and ready relatively quickly, depending on how busy they are. Some of their options can be ordered in different sizes, which is nice for portion control. Flour and corn tortillas are made on site, so it is all fresh, making it one of the best places for tortilla chips. The ordering process is a bit different. Best to use the kiosks instead of their app if you are eating on site. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available, which is nice. The interior seating is achieved with metal tables and folding chairs, and there are a limited number of seats at a bar. It can get a little loud when they are busy.

I wasn’t quite prepared for a first time visitor having to order from a small tablet. The guys didn’t speak much English and had a difficult time communicating. Was able to finally get something ordered. Within no time the food came out. The birria was flavorful and the tacos were cooked to perfection. Rice was cooked fresh, and the beans were somewhat bland, but not horrible. I would definitely visit again to try something else on the menu!

Not wild about the kiosk ordering but besides that cool experience. Food is very good. Shakes and dirty drinks are worth the extra bump in price. Has a salsa bar and liquor drinks as well.
