“After seeing the mentions for this little Mexican Spot, I had to try it for myself! The place is pretty clean. The young lady that took my order was very kind & polite. I ordered the beef Birria Tacos & a side of rice & beans! The tacos were cooked to perfection & had lots of meat! The beef was so tender & flavorful! The hot & green sauce were also a hit, but the birria dip was the most flavorful out of any place I’ve tried thus far…most places are pretty watered down but this one was pretty bold! The rice and beans were also good and tasty! You get 4 tacos for $11 so it was definitely worth it! They only take 10-15 minutes to make your order and you’re out the door! They also serve a large variety of imported Mexican beverages and jarred veggies! Go!! You won’t be disappointed! 😊“

“Hands down, the best and most authentic Mexican food I've found in the Winston Salem area yet! I'm always on the hunt for new places, but this place hasn't been topped in the 7 years I've lived here! They will happily have my business until I leave the area “

“We’ve eaten at taco mama numerous times ,they’re a little on pricey side but good! Never had problem until yesterday, we waited for them to open so we could place a Togo order for lunch. Ordered barbecue burrito meal , meat was over cooked ,dry had nothing but meat and a lot of meat in burrito they left everything else off that was supposed to be in burrito. Chips were soggy ,no salsa and no guacamole . Ordered shrimp soft & hard tacos they were soggy had two pieces shrimp in each taco no sauce ,they left off guacamole, rice was dry and plain. Idk if they just weren’t ready when they opened but food was not up to there normal standards! Not sure if we will be back for money spent for lunch def not worth it.“

“Best and most authentic Mexican food around!“

“Had the waiter from hell! 6/10 about 7:30/8pm. had the nerve to ask if I had ever eaten out before young curly haired guy with a diva attitude. The waiter mentioned he was having a bad day after the "Shelby came out of me"...I guess a bad day was what he was serving as well even if we just wanted shrimp tacos....I didn't get the tacos...I just got a bad day...then went to Burger King 👑 had it my way. I'll cook my own tacos tomorrow! Don't eat at Mi Pueblo on Stratford road. We couldn't even complain because the manager had to get translation from Lucifer....our waiter.... eat popcorn PBJ sandwich even if you're allergic to PBJ just don't go there.“

Ana and her wait staff took a load off my shoulders, the staff was super attentive with the guests. Ana also provided the food for my son’s 18th birthday. As always it did not disappoint! I’m looking for a reason to have another party so my friends and family can enjoy Ana’s cooking.“
