the tacos did NOT disappoint!!! The ladies here are Not the friendliest BUT the food is Amazing and let's get it straight THAT IS WHY WE CAME HERE- spicy and delicious salsas- a MUST TRY!!! they offer a variety of platters - I must say my absolute favorite were the Chicken tacos

Good service and food! Great place for taco Tuesday. Place is very clean too. Server at the front was nice.

Still our favorite place to get Trompo Tacos! Their Trompo meat is delicious! Nicely charred and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Comes with radish, pineapples, onions, cilantro, and grilled onions. Hits the spot each time! Oh, and I love their Jamaica drink!

Fire, fire, fire, and more fire. The food was amazing. I have been to all over Mexico and had food all over Mexico and this place is the same as sitting at a taco stand in Mexico. Taxco is a much try.

You really absolutely must get the Tacos de Trompo. You must! It's just warm corn tortillas filled with the best pork you'll ever have. The pork is seasoned with paprika, spit-roasted to juicy perfection, and shaved directly off the spit (the "trompo"). It looks cool, sounds amazing, and tastes even better. The pork has a vibrant red color from the spices and so much flavor -- it's my favorite taco filling. I'm addition to the crowd-favorite, Trompo, Taqueria Taxco has all your classic Mexican and Tex-Mex faves. Truly they have it all... from chimichangas to tortas, a whole fried fish to fajitas (parrillada), a burger and fries to traditional menudo. There's like 5 soups on the menu! They also have huaraches and sopes, my favorite. Both have a delicious, soft, masa (corn) base and are topped with beans, your choice of meat, tomato, lettuce, and sour cream. Huaraches are larger and flatter than sopes, but they taste mostly the same to me..? I love them equally and endlessly. Really fantastic service here. The menu can be a little overwhelming but I'm willing to bet it's all worth ordering. I look forward to making my way through the menu.
