Update: Ok they have changed by a lot, no more bad customer service and the food is delicious.The gorditas are SO good. I can’t stop ordering them.Highly recommend this spot.It's not good. I told them no tomatoes or onions and they loaded my burrito with it. The meat was not good at all, I mean after I had to shovel out the meat that is.Also the girl was super mean and nasty.

This is my fav workday Taco spot. My coworkers and I come here every week for the Taco special. 10 bucks for 2 tacos, rice, beans and a drink.The barbacoa is my fav! So much flavor and so juicy! Hands down my fav Taco since moving here.

Best enchilada sizes anywhere. Gorditas de picadillo are big, great taste and tortas de carne asada are huge. Only El Faro we go to. Friendly service.

I don't know what happened to this place but they went from being my absolute favorite Mexican restaurant to the absolute least favorite. I don't know if they changed the recipe or change their meat but the last two steak burritos I had from there were absolutely terrible. And this is coming from somebody that's been going there for over 20 years and used to rave to everyone about how good they were. . They need to go back to their old recipes and their old food suppliers. I will give them another chance in a few months to see if they improve, but right now I'm staying away.

We regularly eat at this location and have left 5 star reviews. NO LONGER. They are not a chain, but the head moma conducts business as if they do. We order off the menu but ask them to add a special sauce to cover the chimies. For 2 years now the ladies in this Tyler Plaza location have done it with joy. We spend a little more, but we don't care, it makes the dinner for us. This evening the woman behind the counter would not, in fact refused, to add the sauce we requested as normal. We said we would pay extra as we probably have been for the 2-3 years which we gladly would have. NOPE.
The food at this place is just not up to par. I used to frequent it because of its convenient location near my workplace, but it's been years since my last visit. I recently decided to give it another shot, hoping for improvement, but alas, I was reminded of the very reasons that led me to stop going in the first place. The taco special I ordered was a disappointment. The steak was overly drenched in oil, overcooked to the point of losing its flavor, and to top it off, the cilantro accompanying it was clearly past its prime. Despite my willingness to give them another chance, I have firmly resolved that I will not be returning to this establishment.

Whoa, big change in my review. I used to love this place. Tonight when I called to place mine and my wife's order the lady, who sounded short and not nice, told me she couldn't do my order. I said you have done this same order in the past and she said no, it's not on their menu. I'm like really? You've made it exactly that way for us twice and now you won't. Well... we won't go there again if we can't get what we want all of a sudden.
