“This taco place is the bomb! And they have very Quick and Respectful service, personally I believe they are the best in town. Give them a Try!“

“Best tamales oaxaqueños and champurrado in NWI!“

“Very authentic Mexican joint. It was cozy, but the food was delicious! Idk how to describe it but I've had Mexican breakfast before from many different restaurant but this one taste best like it was homemade. It's like there was more care made in the food. Not sure if that made any sense? but all I'm saying is if you go here you will not be disappointed.

Parking: There's free street parking all around the sides of building.“

“Great authentic food. I’ve never had anything I didn’t enjoy. I especially like eating breakfast here.“

“Tortas Don Cuco is a new place that JUST opened in the last few weeks, and I came here because its nearby my own home, and what I have to say is nothing short of great! This takeout place is small, but really packs a punch!( Of flavor, that is.) The place is mainly about Tortas, but they also serve tacos, nachos, and even wings! The kitchen staff is small, usually a one-man team by the chef, but sometimes a helper will be with him in the kitchen. I didnt have trouble ordering because I was bilingual. I will give you a heads up, they only take cash. Rarely you'll be able to pay with card. Other than that, this place is definitely one of the best places in the area. I recommend you all go try it!

Kid-friendliness: If your child is a picky eater, dont worry, this place has chicken tenders, and you can order them with fries and ketchup!“

“OMG THE FOOD WAS AMAZINGLY TASTY AND GREAT!! Definitely recommend and worth trying!! Servers are also very welcoming and friendly which to me is a plus!“

“Amazing food! The pasta dish, quesadillas and tamales were delicious and flavorful! They have a wide variety of unique food options for food lovers. The owner, Uli is a great guy as well!“

“Los tacos al pastor esta riquisimos, 100% recomendados, las gorditas tambien muy ricas.“

“Came here to figure out lunch, found this nice and cozy place inside the grocery store. Ordered a veggie burrito and the order was ready very quickly (equal to the time of using a restroom and back). Good portion size I must say. The person also provided me with hot sause and salsa verde (chilli sauce) and I used up both to add more taste to my burrito. And I'm not a person who eats very spicy food. Overall, good service 4 star (the person presumed i was mexican- pl don't do that), food 3.5 star (id prefer a little bit more taste in the burrito itself so I would not need to add hot sauces on it) and ambience is 4 stars (it is clean and not too busy inside for this restaurant) :) happy shopping!“

“So glad they are back open. we missed you! The food was fabulous as always. I think very reasonably priced. The chili rellenos are to die for. Big portion and super delicious. they were perfect. I wish it was a way to add a picture. I rate them at five stars“

“Very clean place ! Recommend“

“As far as Mexican food goes, this place is it. My family gets together here for EVERYTHING... birthdays, baptisms, going away, etc, etc, etc. We take up the back/side room every single time with no complaints from them ever, no matter how loud we get!The food is very good, comes out quickly after ordering, and servers are very attentive. Also, when celebrating a birthday, it doesn't hurt that they have their own panaderia right next door if you're in a jam. And then in the restaurant, they play Las Mañanitas if you're celebrating a birthday there. It's laid back. It's chill. Just no alcohol.“

“Great food and drinks! !!“
