Don't get me started on this resturaunt. If I die of a heart attack, it WILL be because I eat too much food here. And I'd die HAPPY. This resturaunt is exquisite and potentially some of the best Mexican food in the county. First, you can get Mexican Coke. Second, the seasoning they use might as well be sold by it's own. I've tried near everything on the menu and when somebody asks me what to get, I'd say I don't know. Because everything is great. The owner is incredibly kind. Larga vida a los tacos es vida!

I am a believer in giving credit where it’s due….AND let me tell you, this place did not disappoint!

From the hospitality the minute we walked in to the last second we walked out. We ordered the street corn in a cup, chicken birria, beef birria, churros and hibiscus agua fresca…It was so delicious. The food has so much flavor and was fresh. This is not a fast food place, it is a fresh food restaurant.

I will be coming back soon with my sister, who will love it here.

I just ordered from Tacos Es Vida for the first time and have to say, these are the best tacos I’ve ever eaten. The Al Pastor was incredible. If you haven’t been, you definitely have to try this place.

Ordered carnitas tacos, and there was barely any meat on the tacos, 80% of the taco was the fat. Would not recommend.

After 38 years of searching, I can confidently say Tacos es Vida serves the best tacos I’ve ever had.

I ordered the Al Pastor tacos and flautas, and both were nothing short of exceptional. The Al Pastor was perfectly marinated—rich, and smoky. The pork was tender with beautifully crisp edges, nestled in warm, handmade tortillas that held up without overpowering the flavor.

The flautas were equally impressive—golden, crunchy exteriors filled with seasoned meat and topped with fresh crema, crumbled cheese, and bright salsa. Every bite was layered, flavorful, and clearly crafted with care.

Tacos es Vida doesn’t just serve food—it delivers a an authentic culinary experience that honors tradition while raising the bar. A must-visit for anyone who considers tacos more than just a meal. Taco lightweights beware, these are not your public school hardshell mystery meat taco Tuesday tacos.
