“Yummy lunch. The fluffy tacos on special were sooooo good. My husbands California burrito took us back to San Diego and was legit!! We loooooooove the guacamole. Mango Agua Fresca was tasty too. We love this place!“

“We had a birthday party here and it was my first time. The food and the margheritas were superb! The staff was friendly, patient and Wonderful. They even let us bring our own cake and provided plates and forks!!“

“Not sure what was going on the afternoon of Jan 4, but waitress was very grumpy. Been coming here for years and never experienced this before. Good food and drinks were wonderful though! Waitress just was not having a good day.“

“Chris is our regular waiter and he is the best. Knows what we wants and always delivers. The food is always good and we are there every week.“

“Finally a California burrito that stacks up with the ones I used to get in San Diego. This truck is legit.“

“After a very frustrating interaction with Grub Hub, this amazing restaurant brought my missing food to our door. She could have told me it was too bad, or they couldn’t fix it. But instead she insisted on bringing it to us and was so incredibly kind. It was hot and freshly made, and so delicious! We love 3 Margaritas and after tonight, we love it even more. Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“This Qdoba is a good one. You will enjoy it.

I honestly gave up on Qdoba the past few years because the food became sloppy and the employees at every location made you feel like you’re bothering them for simply existing and walking into the place.

THIS specific qdoba is full of smiling people who do a good job and don’t make you feel like you’re inconveniencing them. It’s a breath of fresh air and I’ve come back to this location three times in the past three weeks because they’ve made such a good impression after bad experiences elsewhere, so I’m leaving this review. Like ten people in line before me, because everyone wants to come to this location, and I was in and out in 10 minutes. Thanks for making food great again!!!“

“I typically customize a item that I purchase from the menu and they typically get it correct however, a few times they have not but I call up and explain to them the situation and then they typically tell me to come back and get it for free and they also have given me a coupon for future orders“

“Kaelen Felix recommended this lovely restaurant. We enjoyed meeting the owner and her staff that helped us pick the best taco. She was right. We actually tried five different ones. They were all delicious. I particularly liked how they doubled up the delicious corn tortillas. The exciting spice and the crisp onions or salad toppings made a savory meal. we will be returning! We would recommend this to anyone who enjoys authentic food“

“Yummy food and great service!“

“My sister gifted my husband and I a gift card for Xmas. She works for three kings in south county another establishment with the same owners. The food and atmosphere at Three Kings is so great that we were thrilled to see they’d opened a Mexican restaurant as we love tacos! Just from walking up from the partying lot, I knew it would be great! The outside dining had lots of themed touches that were really nice! Soon as we walked in we were greeted and told of our wait time. we really appreciated that the hostess took our number and called us when our table was ready. We ended up sitting and waiting, we like to people watch :D the decor was gorgeous! I loved the succulent chandelier, the floral walls, the ceramic and the mosaic touches! All of their establishments are inviting and really create a nice atmosphere! Our server Charlie was friendly and knowledgeable regarding drinks and food! We each had a delicious margarita! The chips and salsa were fantastic! My husband ordered a smothered burrito and I opted for a taco plate. I was very impressed with the amount of options on the food especially for health conscious people- vegan, gluten free, etc! I loved that I could mix and match, I had a Baja fish taco and the vegan chorizo. Both were amazing! The slaw on the baja taco was sweet and crunchy! This was my first experience with vegan chorizo and it was the perfect amount of spicy! The plantains were delicious and basically became our dessert! We over indulged too much and skipped dessert, but we will be back soon so that we can order the Churros! Highly recommend checking out Tres Reyes and or Three Kings if you haven’t yet! You won’t be disappointed! :)“

“First time at Taco Buddha! Great food! Great staff! Staff went up above and beyond to help with my order, today! Thank you for such Great customer service at the Kirkwood location 💕“

“Watched a group of ladies at a birthday so upset with the purse glass that they couldn’t keep it. so if they review I just want to say that this is the best mexican restaurant around and the staff are always SOO friendly and I am so sorry for that Karen and her friends🤷‍♂️“

“Mi Lupita's is our favorite authentic Mexican restaurant. We love the fresh squeezed Margaritas, Chicken Mole Poblano, El Pastor Tacos of pork and pineapple. Great service, atmosphere and everyone is o friendly. Best of luck on your new location.“

“Wow wow wow!! Their food is incredible & the prices are great! I don’t get Mexican food often but when I do , I’ll drive the 45 minutes to get Taco Wey & Grill ❣️✨“

“I have gotten food here numerous times dining in, taking out, or getting it delivered many different times of the day on many occasions and it is astonishingly consistent and good no matter what. I always get either the queso birria or the Texas rice bowl. Despite the phenomenal amount of meat they put in the rice bowl, the rice is honestly the best part, especially mixed with the green and red salsa’s. Best rice I have had in my life.

A recent discovery I made was the cheesecake chimichanga, which is only like 7 bucks and bigger than I thought it’d be. Its cold in the inside and hot and crispy on the outside. Honestly, you could make an entire restaurant serving only those cheesecake chimichangas. It is by far the best fast food desserts, and one of the best restaurant desserts I have ever had. Heaven has Abelardos cheesecake chimichangas.

Lastly, on an unrelated side note, a lot of the people here leaving one star reviews need to learn how stars work. One star is when there is no redeemable qualities in an establishment. Genuine filth. If you say “Food was good, but service sucks” and leave a 1 star review, you’re either confused or a moron. Thats like 2 stars at worst.

Tldr:
There is a very good reason the vast majority of reviews of this place are 5 stars. Stop going to El Maguey, just go here.“

“Great staff. delicious food“

“This is five star, forgot to change it on my previous review“

“First time at Taco Buddha! Great food! Great staff! Staff went up above and beyond to help with my order, today! Thank you for such Great customer service at the Kirkwood location 💕“

“Food was good and served quickly. Waitress was awesome.“

“great food and presentation, yum!“

“The *best* neighborhood Mexican restaurant in St. Louis. Amazing cuisine, fast and friendly service, great value and the best margaritas in Rock Hill! My husband and I have been going to El Indio since the doors opened nearly 15 years ago and watched it grow into the successful restaurant it is today. It’s no wonder why it is such a gem in Rock Hill! Make El Indio your next night out. Order a pitcher of margaritas on the rocks, share among friends & family and discover what the rest of us already know and love!“

“Fantastic food, service, decor, and grewt waitress. Would highly recommend and eat here again.“

“Great food. Great sauces as well. Authentic. Try them out!!“

Outstanding margaritas delectable food.(tacos pastor and carne asada) hot sauce was a nice touch. Great atmosphere and the servers are so kind very kind. It makes all the difference in the world. Muchas Gracias.. Nos Vemos Pronto“

“Hands down the best Mexican food in stl!“

“Great food. Great service. Friendly people!!! Definitely a place I would go for my taco cravings!!!“

“Excellent! Food was tasty. Would definitely recommend.“

“My husband and I have visited Takeiros three times and brought our 10 year old along on a couple of those occasions. The food is flavorful (I love the chicken seasoning and marinades they use) and portions very generous. Complimentary chips and salsa are always fresh and tasty and they have a chihuahua cheese sauce that I really like. The Monster Chimichanga plate is big enough that my husband and I can easily split it. I’m a big fajita fan and the stuffing of the chimichanga is very akin to chicken fajitas. Kids options are also many and varied - there is a kids menu with American stand-bys like chicken fingers and burgers, but they also have an à la carte menus that can allow kids to order single tacos, cheese quesadillas, or burritos if they prefer. Service is also great as everyone we’ve spoken with there has been kind and attentive. Food comes out fast and hot and servers are always checking in.“

“Warm and cozy place with really good vegetarian mexican options, which is always a challenge. The ambience was particularly very nice with bright lights and fresh decor. Server were nice and attentive. The place was not that crowded. We had veggie fajita (not oily), Chile Releno and their Guac. The only thing was that one of the plates was chopped We will come here again.“

“Our vintage Thunderbird Club had a luncheon event at El Agave on Sunday February 15th, 2026. The food was excellent, the service was exceptional and the accommodations for our group of 16 worked out great. All of our members extremely pleased with everything. To the staff and management, we thank you for your hospitality and service.“

“I went for a birthday dinner and it was fairly empty when we arrived but filled up about 90 mins later. And this was on a Wednesday evening around 5pm, not a weekend. Anyway, I ordered the Quesabirria which was pretty good. The beans (refried) and rice that comes with it works better as an additional ingredient to an entre but not as a side dish (in my opinion) so I took a bite and that's it. The food was pretty decent. Not yummy yummy 🤤😋 but decent. I'm not a huge fan of Mexican food so take that into consideration. The bathroom was clean. The staff was friendly, I didn't encounter anyone that was rude or anything so that's a plus. The parking is a little tricky and I only say that because it's fairly small but it's because they share it with a hotel and an apartment complex so be careful where you park. You don't wanna come out after your meal to a ticket on your windshield. There is a parking garage that has plenty of parking but it's a bit of a walk depending on where you find your parking spot so keep that in mind. Maybe drop off your group at the door and then have someone volunteer as sacrifice for that lengthy walk after they park in the parking garage. Maybe 🤷🏾 Just a thought. 4/5 only because a 5/5 would be considered perfect and I don't think that my overall experience reflects that. However, I would recommend it to anyone that is a fan of Mexican food. They might like it.“

“Great food and service.“

“Amazing customer service. Great food and a great value. Customer for life“

“My first neighbor and my last. my favorite cheat day! From the Quesabirria to the double beans!! They are passionate. love to cook. They really care about your experience and have such a family atmosphere. I’m going to miss their friendship and food.. i know my husband will miss your culinary skills..Tacos are not just for tuesdays when you eat with El Nopal 🥰“

“I have been there many times, and I have always received great service from all the waitresses. Carolina and Luisa will make you feel welcome and brighten your day. I've been through most of their menu and even asked them to pick a meal they thought was the best for me, and I was happily surprised at how wonderful it was. When they first opened, I had a going-away party for a friend with 12 people, and they could not have been more accommodating. Sidenote: if you've not had the choriqueso dip, you are in for a treat.“

“We had a fantastic Sunday evening dinner at Santiago Apostol Taqueria! My wife, our daughter, and I met my dad and his wife here, and with five of us at the table, we ended up ordering a little bit of everything.

We tried the Enchiladas Tropicanas, Pollo Salinas, Pollo Santiago, Quesabirria, street corn, and of course a couple of margaritas. Everything was exceptional. The portions were generous, the flavors were fantastic, and every time another plate came out we wanted to try what everyone else had ordered.

The street corn was especially good, and the chicken dishes were absolutely loaded. This is the kind of Mexican restaurant where you already start thinking about what you're going to order the next time before you've even finished your meal.

What really made the evening stand out, though, was Alex, the owner. He was incredibly friendly and welcoming and took the time to talk with us. You can tell he genuinely cares about his restaurant and the people who come through the door.

Great food, great margaritas, great hospitality, and a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere.“

“Great fresh innovative food, wonderful friendly service. 95 out of 100. 5 points off because my food should have been hotter.“

“Great service by Paige and we enjoyed our steaks and tacos thanks“

“I regular while waiting for my wife to get off work. I have to say, watching these folks work, they care. They’re attentive and the food and drinks are excellent. I’m so happy I gave this place a try one day, and I hope they don’t get tired of me! Do yourself a favor and come on in! You’ll appreciate how wonderful the atmosphere is. Tasty food, big portions, and attentive staff. It’s a haven for things that used to be standard for the dining experience. You’re welcome 😉.“

“Amberley was a wonderful waitress for us today and the the food was delicious.“

“This is our 2nd visit, have now had both lunch & supper. This is a casual mexican restaurant, casual attire was observed on most customers. Ratings are in comparion to other casual businesses.
Good chips & salsa were provided for free at table. Prices were very reasonable. All our food tasted great, had spice & flavour! My fajita meat & veggies both tasted grilled, yum! Garnish veggies were fresh, pico. Sour cream was properly cool. Portion sizes on lunch were approriate, supper was larger, as expected. Adequate variety in menu, includes the usually expected mexican-american staples.
Nice servers. Pleasant, relaxed atmosphere where you are not rushed. Full bar with bigscreen tv. Nice music. Huge free parking lot as part of the Deer Creek shopping center.
We plan to go back more often & try more dishes....the menu includes soups which we have yet to enjoy.
Bonus ... there is a park across the road from this strip mall connected by a great rivers greenway paved path under the bridge.“

“las salsas y flautas buenos guisos“

“We highly recommend the fried tacos! Best we’ve found around town! The salsa is amazing! Hailey and Trinity are awesome, friendly, helpful servers who add to the whole experience! We will be back lots and lots!!!“

“The food here is absolutely incredible. The green chile pork is amazing. Meat it's fall apart tender and the flavor is full and robust. We also had the steak milenesa. It had a great crust and fork tender with great flavor. NOTHING was bad. Service matches the flavor. Food came fast, and the waitress made our dinner a great experience.

You can't go wrong here!“

“Just went last night. Was a great experience! Amazing service, great atmosphere, really good queso dip and very good and fresh margaritas. The food has a lot of options for whatever you are looking for in a Mexican restaurant and then some! Family friendly for sure. They have high chairs and booster seats. Very good amount of options on the kids menu also!“

“Always an amazing meal and such great service! I choose it each time it’s my turn to pick dinner night 😍“
