“Food and atmosphere were great. Food gets an A+. The most only concern is the tables require attention. To be specific, the nylon covering on the tables are deteriorating and protruding out. The protruding out of the covering will stick on your forearms if you’re leaning on the table near the edge.“

“I’m from Texas, so I never get my hopes up when I order tacos (especially street tacos) so I don’t get disappointed. While waiting to pick a load up here in Memphis, I decided to Uber Eats some tacos. I thought these would be the basic skimpy street tacos you usually get and eat like 5 and still be hungry so I ordered 6. I’m a big guy and 3 filled me up when I can usually do 7-10 from a standard taco truck. They don’t skimp on meat, full of flavor, the Pastor were possibly the best I’ve ever had. And the asada and barbacoa would compete head to head with the best I’ve had! If you’re looking for tacos this is THE PLACE!“

Taqueria el mariachi Mexican • $

“Look, being a Cali native and Mexican, I know a thing or two when it comes to my peoples' food lol. Nuff said. To that extent, I'm a huge foodie so I love all sorts of food and have had variations of Mexican food from several different countries; my palate can attest to that. So, with all that being said -- this place serves pretty solid Mexican food. I've tried margarita storm, charlie browns, and a few others. They all have their merits, and honestly, most of these places charge an arm and a leg for a damn taco. lol So give these guys a break. Overall, the food in my experience at least, has tasted great. Service was pretty good too; it's a small place, but they've recently moved to a new location which I love. Their pricing isn't bad, like at all lol. And their taco tuesay, don't even get me started on the variety you get from this place. It's awesome. Their horchata, not bad. Beer selection, also not bad. Overall, this place isn't bad at all. Now, is the best? hmmm, perhaps not, but it meets my needs and I'm happy with that tbh. If you want gourmet mexican food in thailand, expect to pay accordingly.“

“Going against the latest trend, this food truck is actually stationary and only open at night. This refreshing change up is rewarded by the great food and knowledgeable crew. I loved the Mulitas. They were tasteful and plentiful and beautifully plated. The prices are reasonable. I made the mistake of taking a bite before getting my pictures...lol...so that is why there aren't any. But, since I will go back, I will get multiple pics then.“

“Hands down, no exception, beyond a reasonable doubt, unequivocally.... the best tacos in town! I need to figure out how I ordered the first time because they were dipped in a red broth or something, and it was amazing! Love all the tacos I have ordered so far.
I can't wait to go back again and again!!!
Service is great and if you're somewhat in a hurry, this should be your go-to.
I'll try to take pics next time.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“They get 5 stars for serving chicharron (pork fat) tacos, which I love but don’t get at many places because it has to be cooked and seasoned well. If you want some different more complex flavor come here. Everything from their Al Pastor meat to their salsas are nothing like I’ve had at any other taqueria. The people were super nice and you can tell it’s a hidden gems. They give you 3 tortillas (fresh not homemade but fresh) and lots of meat.“

“I go here a lot. If this is the one on Elvis Presley near Winchester. It was horrible when I tried the new doube-pack chulupa. It's like they dropped it in a fryer for too long. My chulupa was burnt like a taco. When I went to the one in Elvis Presley next to Hook's. They made it just like it looked on TV. It was great.“
