Picante Taqueria offers a delightful dining experience with a wide range of Mexican cuisine. The restaurant is known for its generous portions and affordable prices, satisfying many customers. The menu features mouthwatering options, such as chicken quesadillas, chicken burritos, steak al pastor tacos, and carnitas chimichangas, all of which are praised for their exceptional taste and quality. The tortillas are also noted for their durability, and the tacos are particularly well-received. Customers have described the food as "phenomenal" and "well portioned for the price," with some mentioning that the birria tacos are tasty but greasy and not very filling for lunch, suggesting the addition of sides like chips and guacamole or rice.
The restaurant's late-night hours make it a convenient choice for those seeking a late dinner. Additionally, the restaurant offers a selection of churros filled with sweet cream and served with a delectable sauce. The cozy, casual, counter-service setting is complemented by a clean and welcoming ambiance, making it a popular spot for both dine-in and takeout. Customers appreciate the colorful decorations and friendly service, noting that the staff are kind and make the experience enjoyable.
Recent reviews mention the chimichanga being fresh and made right before serving, with some stating it’s probably one of the best they've had. Others highlight the quick service but express disappointment over paying extra for a small serving of guacamole per taco, feeling it should come standard, and noting that staff sometimes speak minimally. Many customers also enjoy the convenience of the location, especially those working nearby, and appreciate the food's freshness and taste. Some wish there were more options to modify bowls online, as currently, customization is limited. Overall, Picante Taqueria remains a beloved, colorful spot known for its great food and friendly atmosphere.
