“Delicious tacos 🌮 de pulpo 🐙“

“I searched for a pupusa place near me. I came to this establishment and I'm glad I did. This is my first visit. The customer service was great and the owner was patient with me and explained some of the items on the menu. I tried the chicharron taco and pupusa. I chose to dine in. My food was served hot and it was delicious!!
Great choice 👍🏾“

“I was immediately greeted by Hector, who made me feel so welcome. I ordered the birria tacos to go. Snuck a few bites in the car while it was hot and fresh: DELICIOUS! I can’t wait to come back and dine in.☺️“

“The Birria Tacos were perfect. Most places think birria= too much cheese greasy mess. These tacos were perfectly filled with tender beef and cheese, grilled perfectly in a consume dipped tortilla. Managed to dip my taco three times and it never fell apart, thats right I double dip and I’m not sorry. Onions , cilantro, salsa, were all fresh. Even the lime slices were big and fresh, i didn’t need a vice to get juice out of them. Will definitely be visiting again to try the rest of the menu!“

“Hands down THE BEST Flautas I’ve ever had ! Loved the Rice and Beans too ! ! I even ordered seconds !! Great food ! Great service ! Great pricing !“

“Thumbs Up ?Have been looking for authentic Cabrito (Chivo/Goat) Birria for awhile, every time we travel to Dallas; definitely found our spot!Tortillas (corn & flour) were freshly made which added to the authenticity, freshness & flavor. Highly recommend.“

“Best mom and pop shop in Dallas! Always really friendly and caring. I love the Spiderman Burrito.“

“Excellent service and food….. always and I can cheat and grab half a piece of Red Velvet cake !!!!“

“This place was take-out only. Not sure if it's always like that, but be aware! You can put in your order ahead of going to save time standing around. Lots of options, decided to go for the 5 taco plate with a variety of proteins and a birria torta. Fair warning, the torta is messy, but it's damn good! The tacos were full of flavor and disappeared quickly. They had a lot of shake options, but I didn't end up trying them. Would love to go back at some point when I'm in town again.“

“I just had a burger from Pacheco Burgers and wow absolutely delicious! The patty was juicy and flavorful, and it literally melts in your mouth. their signature sauce is next-level good creamy, tangy, and addictive. But the real game-changer? The grilled onions it’s the perfect finishing touch on the burger, i will be coming back for more!“

“Great tacos! Get there early or you will be in a line. Good news is the one moves quickly!“

“great service I love this so much“

“Definitely one of the best places I've eaten at an airport. I was unsure what to order and was recommended the burrito. It was possibly the best burrito I have ever had and was fairly priced for airport costs. I would recommend splitting it with another person as it also includes chips and salsa. The chips and salsa were great, the salsa just cought me off guard with it's spice. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has time to spare at the Dallas airport!“

“I really like the tacos from this place. They did a great job with their taco combo plate. Their marinated pork was super good with pieces of pineapple in it. I did not care very much for the quesadilla was a little too greasy for me overall, I would recommend this place. It’s pretty quick and really nice people who own this place“

“Our family dined at this place last Saturday evening for dinner. Food was absolutely delicious. Tacos were so flavorful! We had ceviche and it was one of the best!

“las wings de mango avanero tacos gorditas“

“Visite este lugar en agosto 2,2024 con mis amigas y quedé encantada con el concepto del lugar. Es como si estuvieras pidiendo tacos en un puesto callejero en México. El personal muy atento, entre el bullicio de pláticas se crea cierta camaradería entre el personal y clientes. A veces hay línea pero avanza rápido. Los tacos muy ricos y las salsas no se diga. Regresaré pronto a probar los churros y las bebidas 🍸“

“The best tacos in Dallas!“

“Love Torchy’s and Fergus is da bomb These are the best tacos, you have to give them a try!“

“Amazing food, but service was HORRIBLE. The girl that takes the orders is extremely rude, almost made me go somewhere else. Food was fresh and great flavor, not sure if it’s enough of a reason to go back and deal with the bad customer service.“

“Solid place to get a fast meal. Straight forward menu and their food has great taste. They validate parking too which is always nice. The guy taking the orders is super friendly and the food comes out relatively fast. Their elote is good too. The only downside is it’s outdoor seating only, so depending on the time of day you go, it can get super hot.“

“I have been to many taco ? restaurants in Dallas. This is by far the best one. Hand made tortillas are great and the meat has great seasoning. The salsa is great!!! not too spicy just right . The service was fast and the lady and the young guy at the front were great !! These are real authentic mexican tacos and the hand made tortillas made me feel right at home .. The cooking area is also clean!“

“Muy buen lugar para pasarla bonito con la familia amigos . Me encanto. Me diverti la comida ufff deliciosa!! Les recomiendo“

“Fantastic food and drinks, friendly service, clean kitchen. Highly recommend.“

“The trompo tacos, beans and salsas were delicious. The Rice was a bit dry and not as flavorful as I would have liked. I would give the food a solid 4.4.

You all should open your own food truck or restaurant. It would be well worth it.“

“Pros: Great food, quality. Easy online ordering. Can't wait to try the giant breakfast burritos that I've seen on ig. The Fajita Taco had amazing flavor and the crispy edges of the Tortillas just added to the deliciousness!

Cons: smells a little funny inside the restaurant.“

“Few taquerías in Dallas have the cult status of El Si Hay. The tiny white-and-green stand on Beckley Avenue has long been a Bishop Arts rite of passage, drawing weekend crowds for its cash-only tacos and ice-cold Jarritos. From the outside, it looks exactly like you want a street-side taco shack to look: hand-painted menu on the wall, a metal counter for stand-and-eat sessions, and the scent of grilled meat drifting onto the sidewalk.

On a recent visit I sampled two of the staples — the fajita (beef skirt) and bistec (beef steak) tacos. At $2.75 apiece, they’re still a value in today’s taco economy. The tortillas were warm and doubled up in classic street-taco style, but they lacked the pillowy freshness or light char that separates a good taco from a great one. The meats, while serviceable, didn’t quite sing: the fajita offered a faint smokiness but no real punch, and the bistec had a one-note chew rather than the beefy depth I was hoping for. Standard cilantro and onion toppings kept things clean, but a vibrant salsa might have helped lift the flavors (extra hot sauce runs 75¢).

There’s no denying El Si Hay’s appeal. The stand is charming, the menu straightforward, and for many locals it’s a nostalgic taste of Oak Cliff. But with Dallas’ taco scene evolving, from trompo specialists to boutique nixtamal tortillas, expectations have risen. Compared with newer competitors, El Si Hay feels more like a dependable neighborhood stop than a destination worthy of a special trip.

Bottom line: If you’re nearby and craving a quick, inexpensive taco with old-school vibes, El Si Hay still delivers. But if you’re coming from “miles and miles” away expecting a revelatory experience, you may leave thinking, as I did, that the legend slightly outshines the reality.

Rating: 4 stars (out of 5) solid and honest, but not quite the transcendent taco stand its reputation suggests.“

“Nice place for girls day out“
