“One of the BEST tacos I've ever had in Madison, and I've had every taco I've ever found, lol. This and Tex Tubs are the best overall, but Taco Gato 100% wins for authenticity paired with quality, ESPECIALLY with their pastor. ❤️ Thank you to the man who recommended I try the pastor - it was a game-changer. 🤩👏“

“Good food and good staff very friendly and very clean I give them 5 *****“

This is my go to pick me up when I'm feeling down. Staff is friendly. Burritos are well-mixed and reasonably priced. And the tortillas are SO good I often order an extra tortilla just cause i can't get enough of them“

“Don't ever expect to call this restaurant and they'll answer the phone they will not service at the counter is very poor very skimpy on the portions and everyone acts as though they can't speak English until you complain and then all of a sudden they can speak English very well even the manager was very rude it was a male Hispanic older and balding“

1. Use the tongs
2. Put it on the tray
3. Walk to the front counter“

I don’t eat fast food often but I will everyday if my server is Jasmin ❤️. Thankyou for making my customer experience amazing Jasmin and I wish everybody had a positive attitude like you, the world would be a better place 🌹“

“The food at Lupe's is top notch“

“Por lo regular, soy muy muy delicada cuando se trata de la comida mexicana. No me gusta si no es fresco, o si tiene mucha grasa, y si tiene paquetes de sazón, se me enchina el cuerpo y me da un dolorón de cabeza que no aguanto (literal, porque le tengo alergia al glutamato monosodico). Obvio que mi comida favorita es la que cocina mi mamá y mi hermano que es chef. Pero me dio ganas de unos tacos y sí me gustó mucho la comida de AzTec. Comida fresca, más estilo casera. La carne jugosa y sabrosa. Las tortillas hechas a mano. Y la salsa roja, ¡delicioso! Bravo, y ahora se con quien ir si quiero disfrutar de antojitos mexicanos aquí en Verona.“

“The service was great! I ordered a quesadilla and they burnt tortilla a little bit, without my asking they started making a new one. So delicious! love all the options for toppings!“

“Just so dang good! Authentic. Yummy 😋 highly recommend.“

“I’ve enjoyed La Penca since it opened in 2019 on Park Street. Since then a Verona and recently a McFarland location have been added. Outstanding authentic Mexican cuisine. Jesus Ramirez, the owner, knows what he is doing! Great menu includes vegetarian and non-spicy dishes. Big selection of Mexican beers and delicious margaritas, all inexpensively priced. So many favorites including chiles rellenos and tinga (chicken tacos. Highest recommendation. Stop by and enjoy. You will not be disappointed!“

“We recently gathered for my mother’s 93rd birthday, I could not have been more impressed with the experience. From start to finish, everything was seamless and delightful. The restaurant was perfect for our group. The spacious seating arrangement accommodated everyone comfortably without feeling cramped. The decor was elegant yet welcoming, setting the tone for a memorable day. The service was exceptional. Despite our large group, the staff were attentive and efficient. They managed our orders flawlessly and ensured everyone's needs were met promptly. The food was outstanding. From appetizers to desserts, every bite was a testament to the chef's skill and dedication to quality ingredients. The drink selection was impressive, catering to various preferences within our group. Cocktails were expertly crafted. The combination of excellent service, delicious food, and inviting atmosphere made it a truly memorable dining experience for everyone in our group. I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion.“

“I always like the tacos with chicken. However on Sunday my tacos had pieces of skin in the shredded chicken. So now I don't feel like eating there for awhile. Now I have spoken up about it Sally“

“Got an order of 4 tacos for takeout. The young man working the counter was very nice. It was 5pm and I was the only one there. The presentation of the tacos in the Styrofoam container when I got home was nice (pictured) with the two lime chunks. Limes were a bit dry, and I wish they'd do one chunk per taco. Tacos themselves were great. I got tinga, chorizo, pastor, and one other. Shared bits of each meat with my 7 month old son, the tinga was his favorite.“

“Great food, speedy service“

“Holy tacos Batman! Did not expect this from a food court. The birria tacos look and tast better than any taco I've ever ate (that's A LOT) and if those aren't on special you can't go wrong with anything else you order. Wow...blown away.“

“Down home cooking, tasty menu, student prices.“

“3.5 - 4 out of 5 doesn't mean bad but it's appropriate for the level of quality here.

Food/service is fast, comes with starter nachos, and portion sizes are good. That said, mango margarita was unfortunately bitter, food presentation was very basic and ambience of the place was lacking. Food was good, not great and items in my order were wrong (asked for flour tortillas specifically, got corn). The lack of attention to detail is PayPal not it's ok for a quick bite.“

“Randomly stopped here tonight with my mom and stumbled upon a gem. Best Mexican Restaurant in Madison HANDS DOWN. The atmosphere gives quality authentic Mexican and i loved that. The food was absolutely delicious (i ate it so fast i forgot the picture part). The server was so nice and polite. We will support again and again!!“

“High-back booths provide a cozy and private atmosphere while telling you you're in for an authentic Hispanic meal with traditional vibrat colors. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. And brought chips \u0026 salsa with out drinks. I would have loved some fresh guacamole, but settled fir their fresh Pico instead. (Avocados were out of season). All the food was fast, fresh, and delicious. I pounded 5 tacos and was in agony - 4 would have been plenty, but I had to top it off with dessert anyways. ??“

“picked up food togo. tacos and burritos were great. don’t know about a hotdog on a cubano sandwich though. the staff was very nice. the variety in the market was quite nice. i will definitely return to try other choices on the menu and from the market.“
