“They have THE BEST CHICKEN MOLE IN the 22 different states that I have ate it in. Wife got Chile Verde and it was delicious. Portions great especially for take out. She took some of hers home BUT mine was so good; I ate the white off the plate. LOL BUT SERIOUSLY folks great chow great service. Also if you live up north, there's a location on I 29 and Barry road towards airport. AND if you like an adult beverage they will HOOK YOU UP. TRY IT“
“We love this torchy‘s location!! The food is always perfection and the staff is well trained and friendly. My husband and I drive 40 minutes away from our home just to experience this awesome restaurant. We are not young people and have eaten tacos in many, many places, but this torchy‘s in particular – is our favorite. It is clearly a well-run and well-managed business. Great job, Byron and staff!!!“
“We had a fantastic experience catering Fajita Pete's for my in-laws anniversary party! Scott helped me determine the correct amount to order and was accommodating with our order pickup needs. The food was delicious and there was more than enough to go around for our large group. Would definitely recommend for catering an event or even just to pick up dinner on your way home on a week night-you won't be disappointed!“
“Food was great, yummy veggie options, and the service was excellent. Every single person was smiling and helpful- you just don’t find that environment everywhere these days. Thanks for a great dinner (and thanks Diana and the rest of the staff for being awesome!)“
“Tonight was our 1st time here and we had such a wonderful experience! Atmosphere, service, food, and margaritas were 10/10! The premium margarita used fresh lime juice and the birria tacos were incredible! This is definitely a new go to spot for us!“
“I'm vegetarian and this is 1 of my go-to's- the meat is kept separate from the fresh veggies- cilantro rice and beans- I always get a salad, and totally love their mango salsa. The service is awesome! And there's always a clean place to sit for dine-in.Vegetarian options: You choose each and every item you'd like- either in a burrito, a bowl, a salad, etc. there are MANY options! If you're a vegetarian it's easy to not select any meat; there is a plethora of fresh veggie items to choose from, and dairy toppings as well. They have some traditionally named desserts like flan and tres leches- and the strawberry limonada is my favorite drink“
“Good food, exceptional service and convenient location. I ordered the taco salad to go and it was so nice to have a tortilla bowl that was not soggy from all the grease. Great job!!Kid-friendliness: Have taken our kids there several times and they love it.“
“For context: I arrived at approximately 6:30pm, on a week night. I was alone and sat at the bar.FOOD: The meal came with free chips and salsa. This was by far, the BEST salsa that I've had in the midwest. I ordered the vegetarian fajitas, it came with rice and black beans (which most places mess up the rice and beans).Other than the tortillas, this was the best I've had in the Midwest too! Highly recommended. 5⭐SERVICE: Meh, it was a busy weekday, I was at the bar & she was busy.... It was okay. Not great, but okay. 4⭐ATMOSPHERE: Holy cow! It was SO noisy. They had music playing and occasionally an *obnoxiously loud* birthday song would be played. It was waaayyy too loud for my taste. 2⭐(I would have to say the place was packed and others looked to be enjoying themselves)I do plan on returning, but I think I will try earlier in the day so it will be quieter? Otherwise, the patio or take-out would be a better fit for me.For those sensitive to noises: AVOID and get take-out“
“Finally some good authentic Mexican food in OP. I got the Birria Plate and it was delicious. The portions are huge and the food literally warmed my soul. My boyfriend got the Asada Tacos which were also fire. We enjoyed our lunch while he gave me a history lesson of the classical Mexican 50s music that was playing. Arturo was our server and he was very attentive, not to mention he’s a great bartender.“
“Still my favorite Mexican restaurant in the KC area. Excellent food and service with terrific prices. We generally get the cheese and onion enchilada and soft chicken tacos, but their chicken quesadillas, burritos, and chicken wings are also good. They have a rewards card that we love as regular customers. It is a great place for special occasions, such as birthdays and anniversaries.“
“Came in for lunch, had the chicken and chorizo burrito and my fiancé had the shrimp and crab enchiladas. Both were very good, especially the burrito! Also a big fan of their espinaca dip! Service is always fast and friendly. Will definitely be coming back again soon!Parking: Free, plenty of parking in front of building“
“WOW, they have the BEST fried tacos. everything we ordered was good but the fried tacos were so full of flavor. my very picky daughter loved them 10/10 will definitely be making this our new Mexican place to visit. the staff was very friendly. so happy they decided to come to CR.“
“Torreador has been a staple DTOP establishment to my family and I for 30+ years. The food is fantastic, the margs are great, the staff has always been amazing. The thing I love most is probably their salsa - can’t put a finger on why it’s so good, just something about it!“
“I love this Fuzzy’s location!! I come here multiple times a week. The food is good and the staff is even better! Claudia is wonderful! She is always so friendly and helpful! Ivan is also so very friendly, as well as the kitchen staff! I love this place!“
“The food is fantastic. We get the little burritos for breakfast and even my 3, 6, and 10 yr olds eat them. They all get sausage and I get the chorizo. Not a drop gets left behind!Kid-friendliness: I've seen many families there, although it's a small space.“
“Lo Siento KCK!!! You're getting a run for your money - not just good, but GREAT. My wife and I were more than pleasantly surprised we can get this level of top-shelf taqueria food without driving out to our select spots in KCK. Nothing but good vibes there - we'll definitely be back.“
“Jose peppers made a delicious vegan meal upon request. It was super good and their staff was super chill and accommodating about it. My meat eating family even tried it and admitted it was just as good, maybe better than their meals! Y'all should put the vegan chimichanga on your menu.“
“We used the catering services for my nephew's rehearsal dinner. Tammy was very easy to work on the menu, we opted for full service and they went above & beyond with service during the dinner. All the food was excellent and any leftovers were packed up for us to take home. I would like to gush a little about Tammy & Jackie, they handled a crowd of 50 people and served, cleaned up as people finished eating. They were so nice and courteous to all the family & friends gathered to celebrate. I would recommend Jose Pepper's if you have catering needs.“
“Very modern establishment, very njce staff, and the food was amazing. I think Jose Pepper’s should add the chicken pastor burrito or taco, could be a nice addition to the menu.Parking: HUGE parking lot, easy to find parking! It can get very busy sometimes though.“
“Never had anything I didn't like here! Tamales are delicious, so are the verde chicken and spinach enchiladas. Can't go wrong with a margarita from this local joint! With a friendly staff and casual atmosphere, what's not to like?“
“I remember this place from when I was a kid. It's American style Mexican like Taco Bell, but the ingredients are far better, especially the ground beef. The Taco burger is huge now, much bigger than I remember. The big nacho is also not to be missed, it's a tostada with sauce, cheese, and Jalapeños. Great to see it's still good!“
“Enchiladas were excellent! Ice cold Jarritos and very friendly staff.I judge Mexican restaurants by their rice and beams. This is good food! Great beans, the rice (with corn) had a sweet kick to it.The green sauce on the enchiladas was just spicy enough without overdoing it.“
“Bean n Cheese dip is very good n a large is enought for 4 pplOur waitress was more interested in the large party table then the 2 of us . But anyway we went for Nachos we love them Chivken or beef ...plenty of cheese sauce I add black beans he got sour cream it's cheap dinner “
“I've visited Mi Ranchito several times, and I must say the food is really good. The service is commendable, and the atmosphere is acceptable. My absolute favorite is the Jalisco chimichanga - it's absolutely delicious! Overall, a satisfying experience.“
“I stopped in today to get a burrito to go. I will say this... I have been eating Chipotle burritos for years.. but the Al Pastor burrito that I got today was a thousand times better than any Chipotle burrito I ever had! No joke. I'm a Foodi and the ingredients and flavors were awesome! I love this burrito today and I'm sure I will be back!“
“I recently dined at this Mexican restaurant and found the ambience to be perfect for couples. The cozy atmosphere sets the mood for a romantic evening. While the food was decent, it could be elevated to match the standards of other Mexican restaurants. However, what truly stood out was the friendly and welcoming staff, making the dining experience enjoyable. Overall, it's a lovely spot for a date night, but there's room for improvement in the culinary offerings.“
“Fénix at Strang Hall is one of my favorite little places to go to because they are always changing things up and adding new things. Brett is always up for discussing food and sharing the different components that go into his dishes. Fénix is a great hidden gem and I'm excited about whatever they come up with next!“
“We had always done carryout previously. Decided one night to try the soup in the crispy tortilla bowl. Didn't realize how many options there really was until we actually saw all the choices. The employees gave us additional info on the food and sauces since I don't like hot...even a "taste" to check it out!. Everything was really good! We will be back. Also recommend their loyalty app!“
“Mi Ranchito is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the KC metro.There is a ton of space to dine in inside and they have an outdoor patio to eat too.The menu has a great variety.Their chips and salsa are good.I always order the carne asada with rice and flour tortillas. The carne asada was juicy.The place wasn’t too busy.“
“This is our favorite taco place! The food is delicious and I can get beef cheek here. I placed a carry out order and service was prompt and courteous. They made sure I had everything I needed before I left. I cannot say enough good things about Taqueria La Nueva!! Love this place ♥️“
