“We’ve been eating Marcy’s for a year now. I know because I just checked… we feel spoiled because they are down the street on Leavenworth Rd! They have delicious everything on their menu. Highly recommend. Hands down my favorite taco truck!“

“Visiting from Texas and found them near by. So 1st time for us and it was delicious. Had the tamale plate and hubby had a combination plate. Will be back before we leave. Want to try sopes.“

“In love with their food, customer service, and atmosphere. Ate at El Camino and I’m counting down the days until I can go back! Found it through a food blogger and truly believe this place is a hidden gem.“

“The lady taking orders was standoffish, I only knew a few words of Spanish. That seemed to annoy her. The cook corrected her attitude and knew exactly what I wanted.. she eased up a little bit.. (with that being said) customers spending money at any establishments that don't speak English or Spanish.. should always be made to feel comfortable and welcome to support any business.. simple math. Welcoming business + happy customer = $$$ thriving business. P.S. remind your staff to be friendly. The chicken was flavorful,fresh, and hot .would recommend.“

“One of my favorite places to eat. Food is delicious and fresh always. Best known for the burgers but have other delicious plates. Their aguas frescas are…AMAZING! The pepino agua was my favorite! Service was great. Got packed with to-go orders but still managed to tend the tables.“

“THE BEST!! great food and drinks, the service is exceptional, and the best mole you will ever find.“

“Finally had the chance to try the taco sauce and chips today. They have become a staple to my house I never knew I was missing!“

“This restaurant California Taco Shop was recommended to me by a local Kansas City KS resident… and wow were they right! If you’re looking for a real Mexican food lunch this is the place. My main dish was Steak Chicken and Shrimp Fajitas which was perfect with the right amount of spicy ness. It was less than $15 but the reason my acquaintance recommended this restaurant was the pickled carrots on the salsa bar! Yup they were delicious!“

“My granddaughter and I ate there last week. The happy hour Margaritas were delish! Our waiter Alejandro was the best! We will definitely be going back on a regular basis!“

“ordere 2 dozen street tacos more corn tortillas than meat any they charged me 131.00 dollars wow“

“Taco’s are good but burritos and mexican chile is great! I have ate here for years and have learned that getting help is hard. I advise you to take a trip and try out Jalisco’s!“

“Their food is amazing. I drive 1 hour to eat there, and a hour home. Food is still warm when I get home. I always order burrito asada, and initially I was taken aback because they had beans in burrito. Now I find it part of the reason I love them. Big portions, friendly staff, and clean restaurant. I've never had a bad experience there! Amazing job Tacos El Gordo!!!“

“Mmmm - everything is really good“

“Home made food Delicioso!! Autentic mexican food 100% and the best healthy.“

“Tan buenos que estaban los burritos ya no porque metieron esas tortillas de las más varatas de esas comerciales ya perdieron un cliente Más“

“In love with their food, customer service, and atmosphere. Ate at El Camino and I’m counting down the days until I can go back! Found it through a food blogger and truly believe this place is a hidden gem.“

“buen servicio🤗 y deliciosa la comida 😋“

“Ohemgee! We found a new fave stop on the Taco Trail. The tacos are hot fresh and FULL of meat. My carne asada and pastor tacos were flavorful and ¡muy delicioso! The meat was a little crispy but not dried out. The server at the counter was super friendly and gave us a little history lesson on the name (no this is not a food truck but a restaurant now… but they started as a truck many years ago). We got our sauces on the side because they came with a warning that they are not gringo mild. 😃“

“La comida 🤤 es realmente deliciosa 😋“

“I don't like driving to Kansas unless it's to sports bet or eat quesadillas and here I can do both at the same time after driving to multiple spots my choice is here all day. I saw they had a breakfast menu they might get me back tomorrow lol.“

“☆☆☆☆☆ A must for Tacos 🌮🌮🌮“

“Best birria tacos I’ve found in KC area. I’ll definitely be ordering again soon.“

“Exceptional restaurant, very authentic - beautiful, fresh, delicious food. Blew away our expectations. The patio was great, inside was clean just did not seem as comfortable. Great selection on the menu - and a very large menu at that. Horchata was awesome, so were the octopus tacos.“

“Really good little restaurant / shop!
Clean, nice, excellent food.
The tacos were stuffed & pastor was perfect. Some places char it too much so it's not tender, just right here. Guacamole was some of the best I've had and the roasted peppers, limes, & radish is a nice bonus.
The picture doesn't do it justice, but even the take out wrapping is done with real care.“

“Las mejores quesabirrias en Kansas sin lugar a duda!!! Vale la pena probarlos e ir desde donde sea!!!“

“Must visit place! Handmade fresh tortillas themselves are worth visiting for! Menudo, pozole, and tacos were authentic and tasty! Atmosphere not much to look at but this is one of those "hole in the wall" places people talk about. No pics to provide “

“To be honest I love their food, prices are good, it’s cash only restaurant so bring some with you
Their service is great, advice if you don’t want to wait show exactly at 7:50 it gets busy
No complaints at all it’s a very small local so about 10 tables of 4 maybe, I might be wrong
Hot and great quality of food😊“

“Towing the owners car turned out to be the biggest blessing in disguise. The food is incredible, and Saul was a tremendous guy working the counter. I don’t have enough good things to say about this place and the people who operate it. If you’re a fan of good elote, this is the place to hit. 5 stars everytime.“

“You must try La Nena! The Roasted chicken and side dishes are extremely good!“

“I always have a wonderful time here! The food is amazing and the servers are really polite!“

“Muy ricas las quesadillas“

“The food was okay. I would go back to try a couple more things, but hesitant. However, the portions are very small. And it's a little pricey. I order an order of tacos with rice and beans and I got less than one scoop of rice and less than one scoop of beans literally. They grabbed a tablespoon, more like a teaspoon and gave me 2 tsp of rice and beans for what I paid. That was not worth it. This plate was almost $20 for 4 tacos with rice and beans. The Horchata was not good at all, tacos were mid. I also, ordered Pizzabirria, that was delicious, but the consomes were small.“

“This is exactly the kind of low-key spot I love. Phenomenal tortillas made-to-order, and lengua and al Pastor tacos that had me pulling out all the Spanish/Portuguese I know to convey how much I appreciated the meal. So f-ing good!“
