“I tried Que Taco for the first time..the location in New Hope off of Bass Lake Road. The handmade tortillas are excellent and the Pozole as one of the best I have had...very authentic. It was so good we went back the next day to try the chilaquiles and machete. All very good!“

“Everything we’ve had from Nixta is just so good. More than once we’ve said “this is the best ______ I’ve ever had” about various menu items. Cant recommend enough.“

“The birria ramen is in a class by itself. I dined at the Uptown location and the food was excellent and the service was great. Even with a language barrier we worked it out! Good service is at an all-time low so it was refreshing to be treated w such kindness and consideration. Thanks and we'll be back!“

“So I have drove by here at least 100 times in the last 2-3 months. I have wondered, I have mentioned it to the boyfriend, and I always kept going cause they looked so busy. Tonight we stopped!! It was so worth it, I thought I had ordered something other than what I got, (I did order what I got) but they offered to get me what I wanted to order, I'm so glad I said no I will eat this, (the Carnita Torta) it was amazing and so filling. I can not wait to try something else. Let me mention as well it was within an hour of closing and we were welcomed in as if they just opened. (That is so impressive these days.) Everyone was so kind and welcoming. The price was right, the food was amazing, and the service was so welcoming I felt like I had been going there for years, come to find out they just opened this past May 2022. Panchos really reminded me of a place I went to while in Cabo... Keep up the great work. We will be back sooner than you think cause they are open for breakfast too. If you haven't tried Panchos yet, stop what you are doing and go! Go for Breackfast, lunch or dinner! You will not be disappointed.“

“We had an amazing dinner experience at Centro last night. Our group of 3 were greeted and sat at our table right away. Our server Sarah J. was very attentative. All the dishes were fresh and flavorful! The atmosphere was fun and inviting with the colorful decor and music playlist. We will definitely be back to try other menu items.“

“I love having authentic Mexican cuisine in our city. Tequila Town is a beautiful restaurant with amazing, fresh food and great margaritas. I love coming here for lunch or dinner! The servers have always been friendly and helpful and the food always fresh and satisfying. Thank you for bringing such a gem to Crystal!“

“This is my all time FAVORITE restaurant on campus!!! Anytime I decide to eat out, this is where I go. I will most definitely continue coming back even once I no longer am a student at the U of M. I strongly encourage everyone to try this restaurant!“

“I went twice during the insane "ICE" terror. First, to support a business then second because the food was excellent. The owner and workers there were so nice and pleasant despite the horror they were living through. I so much hate these gestapo raids on our immigrant communities. The Trump administration and all ice "employees" should be so ashamed of these tactics. They have hurt a lot of families and working people. I wish I had more disposal income to support this restaurant and many others. I definitely will be going back.“

“food was amazing, staff was amazing“

“I love their street tacos and friendly service!!“

“Fresh made tacos. Super goood!! Know that they only take cash. Havent eat all day from work and the food is very fulfilling and melts in my mouth. I order the 3 tacos with the sauce (Idk what the name is)but yum and i also order quesadillas. Recommend. Maybe a bit pricey but it was good. Spend about $40 with drinks.“

“Thank you for the burrito bowl at the backpack event at cedar field! So good!!! ♥“

“Family was attending a get together at Minneapolis Axe Throwing and afterwards decided to grab a bite. Decided to stop by Sonora Mexican Kitchen just happenstance. WOW. I live for Mexican food and honestly this food was really top of the list. Everyone at the table indicated that the food was the best tasting they have had for a Mexican fare. Not just saying this. I had to think when I’ve had better, and couldn’t really come up with an answer. It was a long drive for us, but I’m going to have to make this trip again. Well done Sonora Mexican Kitchen and Bar! Well done!“

“they were super sweet and the food came super fast! The food was pretty good but a bit expensive! Family friendly and good drink options as well!“

“Great little spot. Delicious food, kind team of a couple good (and quick) chefs, and it's a cute little spot with counter seating for waiting for your order or eating!

I have an allergy to eggs and nuts and they can accommodate these restrictions easily.“

“Absolutely the best! This is, by far, the best Mexican restaurant in town. Great food, great staff, great venue. Also, did I mention great food?“

“I wish it was a star point system to review. I usually love britos burrito. The location on Nicollet is really convenient for me. I would probably give it three stars. I always ask for one scoop of rice and they always give me extra. I ask for a little bit of corn and they put a heaping scoop on the one thing that really frustrates me is that when I ask for extra cheese, they put a pinch on and if I ask for more, they get angry and tell me that I’m going to have to pay for it. The service leaves a lot to be desired, but the pricing is good, which is why it is three stars and not five.“

“I tried Que Taco for the first time..the location in New Hope off of Bass Lake Road. The handmade tortillas are excellent and the Pozole as one of the best I have had...very authentic. It was so good we went back the next day to try the chilaquiles and machete. All very good!“

“Super recomendado excelente servicio y todo bien rico!!!“

“Delicious. The tacos were very fresh and juicy, I added the red sauce and it was so good. Amazing customer service, the lady that took my order was so sweet. Overall 5 stars, great food.“

“Janetta was wonderful! Really appreciated her service and the food was amazing! Please let Janetta work on your marketing - if we hadn't happened to look at Google maps to see what was around us, we would never have discovered you! You should have more of a presence so people know to come check you out!“

“The birria ramen is in a class by itself. I dined at the Uptown location and the food was excellent and the service was great. Even with a language barrier we worked it out! Good service is at an all-time low so it was refreshing to be treated w such kindness and consideration. Thanks and we'll be back!“

“All Taco is by far my favorite restaurant. Every time the food tastes just perfect. I love the street tacos and corn, but everything has been delicious. Customer service is top of the line, friendly and fast.“

“Nice atmosphere, Steak taco's filled with beef. Would only suggest a bit of dipping hot sauce.“

“Love this place! I always have a shredded beef dish of some sort. I know it's homemade as a couple of times I have found a bay leaf inside my burrito or taco. Good thing I always add a bit of salsa to my stuff and check. I love sitting at the bar and trying the 3 different salsas that are available as a help yourself buffet style along with delicious chips. Love the margaritas but now I am spoiled, I tried one with Milagro silver tequila on the rocks. It is excellent! The Columbia Heights locale is my favorite, and I have tried each of the others! I have yet to try the patio in the summertime, so I can't tell you about it. The stained glass windows are amazing! Busy bustling place! I love it! And the staff is excellent! If I want to change an option on the menu, the staff is very accommodating. I would give this place 5 stars! I always take family and friends to La Casita Mexican Restaurant - Columbia Heights, MN when they come to visit!“

“Really great food and service. They're always quick and attentive, they work well with kids at the table.

Most recently had the Torta al Pastor. Super good. I wish I could go find the roll so I could have it at home.“

“Our server (the owner) helped us find exactly what we wanted on the menu with great recommendations. He was funny and the service was quick. The food was delicious; we will be back again soon! Thanks for helping make my mother's birthday lunch extra special.“

“I truly think this is the best Mexican food in Anoka County! Both locations! Ham Lake location is inside of the BP gas station right off of Constance and 65, you can eat inside or get takeout. They have their own app which makes online ordering a breeze! I feel like this is the best hidden food gem around, I’m assuming people either don’t realize it’s there or are turned off because it’s located inside of a BP. But it’s actually an adorable set up inside the BP and not weird at all :) I give this place 5/5 stars! 🌯🌮💕“
