21 Best Taco Restaurants in Buffalo

“I had a vegetable quesadilla today and it was excellent. Fresh, hot, crispy and great flavor- not greasy. Great choice for lunch in downtown Buffalo!“

“Awesome 10/10 great food with a great atmosphere“

“Everything i tried so far is absolutely out of this world good! This is my new favorite spot!!! Thank you for the hospitality and kindness. I will definitely be stopping by more often!“

“Best tacos hands down. Well done!!“

“Great experience once again. Emily was our bartender. She remembered us from when we came in last hockey season. So nice, friendly and inviting. Her drinks were superb and the food was incredible. Go visit, ask for Emily and see for yourself. We will be back!“

“Great for a fast and delicious slice of pizza.“

“I'm hooked on this Mexican restaurant. The margaritas are the best in the city, the grub's quick and tasty, and their homemade hot sauce is ridiculous. The staff's also super knowledgeable and friendly, so it's a solid spot to take out-of-town guests who are hungry and thirsty.“

“Tried the fish burrito, seasonal during Lent. Delicious! Apple empanada so good. The restaurant was clean. Kiosks for simple ordering. Spacious dining area and kitchen. Staff was nice. A lot of pretty art work on the walls. Option to watch TV. Even an option to order a cold beer!“

“I took my son for his birthday and was very pleased. Everything was delicious.“

“Placed a large order online - 23 items many ordered with substitutions and ingredient changes/edits - and the restaurant was experiencing high volume of online, drive thru, and in-person orders at the time I came to pickup my order. I waited about 10 minute to receive my order, which I believe was very reasonable given the location being very busy. I observed the manager handle a drive thru order issue with courtesy and professional during this busy period while also treat other customers in the walk-in area with respect and courtesy. I thanked employees for their efforts on my order. When I reviewed my order it was 100% accurate. Kudos to the PEOPLE at the McKinley express location for their work this evening!

Kid-friendliness: I have picky eaters (4) and I placed the order online because the app makes it easy to select and deselect ingredients. Mighty taco makes every menu item very customizable to suit my family’s needs!“

“Great food, great service, and a friendly, attentive staff. The menu is authentic with a really nice variety, and everything we’ve tried has been delicious.

One of my favorite things is that they offer fresh chips and salsa — and they do it right. It’s always a win when that’s on the table. The service is welcoming and makes you feel taken care of without being rushed.

I don’t go out to eat very often, but when I do, this will be one of my local regular spots. It’s also super conveniently located near my house, which makes it even better. I’m happy to support this place and definitely plan on being a regular for many meals to come. 🌮✨“

“The food is good. You pay a premium price for it being so close to downtown. The location is the only thing justifying the price. I paid $90 for my spouse and I to have lunch on a Tuesday. Small queso, small margarita, veggie fajitas, a few tacos that we had to add sides to, waters.
Its one of the better options in the city. But I've had better Mexican food at multiple restaurants in the suburbs. I asked for no salt on my margarita- got tons of salt. Veggie fajitas had some unchewable pieces of broccoli stems and tomatoes that were reduced to skin and mush. Server said tacos were 2.50 for Tuesday, didn't tell us Asado tacos weren't included before or after ordering them. We felt rushed out of there despite it being empty, because they kept trying to take our food and drinks away before we were done.
Despite all of this, we've been here before and had a great time with a bill half that price and no pressure to hurry. Not sure what happened this time. But again, at least its one of the better options when you're stuck in the city.“

“Truck employees at Kenmore Fattey on Thursdays have been killing it. 👍👍👍“

“We was in the buffalo area and was looking for a good pie. Figured we would check it out. Pizza was very good but the sauce was a little sweet for my liking. But if I was in the area again I would have it again.“

“In town for hockey tournament at river works, ordered on a thursday night right before close as we got into town late and they were one of the only spots open. Sacrilege to order 30 min or less before close and yet when I arrived at 1150pm on a 0 degree night, the gentleman behind the counter greeted us and handed us our food, I apologized for the last minute order and thanked him for taking it. He was genuinely nice and thanked us for the order. I don't want to tell the owner how to run their business. I grew up in it and understand completely how it sounds, but bartending and serving most of my life to not have a tip option, it is just an option. I wouldnt be here without the generosity my dad's customers paid me so I would love to see this added. The food was amazing so much so we ordered again today and this time I brought extra cash to tip for the other night and today, and thanked the gentleman again for his service the other night. I lived in philly for 2 years tried all the best spots, Jim's is right up there with them if not better quality. I apologize I don't have pictures of the food, its because it was devoured by the time we got back to the hotel at lecom, we'll done Jim and most importantly the crew that makes it all go, we will definitely be back!“

“Never disappoints!! The food is so good and hits the spot. I’ve been coming here forever. I love this location Becasue the food doesn’t take forever and is always exactly the way I order it when I pick it up or eat in. The manager Aaron is almost always there and remembers our names every time and is so accommodating. 5 stars!!!“

“Stopped by for a drink… staff friendly and attentive. Beautiful setting with the fire pits on water. Relaxing venue… will be back“

“Jim’s Steakhouse is top-notch from start to finish. The food’s always cooked perfectly — tender steaks, rich flavor, and sides that actually taste homemade. The staff treats you like family, the place feels welcoming, and you can tell they take pride in everything they serve. Easily one of the best spots around if you want a meal that feels special every time.“

“Awesome food every time. Not just the pizza, all of it is delicious and prepared perfectly. Fair prices, as much as can be expected these days. Nice people, always happy and quick to take care of you. Clean bathroom with hot water and good soap and paper towel dispensers. What more can you ask for?“

“Food was hot, delicious and plentiful. Prices are reasonable. The location was great for people watching. My only criticism is that they serve the sloppiest tacos anywhere. They don't drain the taco meat before slopping it on the tortilla so the juice gets everywhere.“
