11 Best Taco Restaurants near Harahan

“No, it isn’t gourmet . However, my family and I are always seated quickly, happily. We are fed quickly and rather well for such fast service. The margaritas are better than most places of the like. My young kids are welcomed and not sneered at when they are a bit more rambunctious than I’d like. We visit almost weekly and will continue to do so. Staff are SO wonderful“

“Was in the garden district for a tour and wanted to grab a bite before. Found this place to have good reviews and it was not very busy on a Monday afternoon. We had the crab and sweet potato balls and pork tacos both amazing! Would recommend“

“Awesome restaurant with delicious tacos and quesadillas. One time my Uber driver stole my order and when I went to pickup the food, Tacos del Cartel remade the whole order on the house! The inside decor is amazing and cozy for couples on dates!“

“Cute and clean place with great atmosphere!We ordered pupusas, plato paisa, dessert and drinks. We left only empty plates there. Everything was delicious. Pupusas with the warm sauce-amazing! Grilled meats and shrimp-perfect, thick and tasty flan, refreshing rice water! Thank you for all.P.S. This place has All day menu and pictures of the food in the menu - this is very helpful.“

“This was a nice find. The outdoor eating space is quaint and has a wonderful atmosphere. The food was good but a little pricey for what you get. I had the braised pork tacos which were really tasty. My wife had a chicken quesadilla and we shared some chips and queso. We each had a margarita, her Jalepeno and me strawberry. Bill was just over 50.00 with tip. Give Barracuda a try, I think you will like it.“

“Amazing papusas. Like AMAZING. And great customer service!! I think they actually hand make them fresh to order. I asked for an order of mixed papusas but to add jalapeño to it and it was perfection. They sell in orders of 3 but I wanted 5 and they made that happen too. Even brought the food out to my car. If you’re anywhere near the airport, totally worth it.Parking: Maybe 1-2 spots directly in front of the shop but more spots in front of neighboring shops. Complex wasn’t busy when I went so parking was not an issue at all.“

“It's been a little tricky for me to find vegan food in New Orleans. I'm so grateful to have stumbled across this restaurant! I had the cauliflower, the nopalitos, and the mushroom tacos and they were divine! The atmosphere is also wonderful. My mom is on a scooter and she was able to drive right up to a table for dining. What a great experience!“

“Such a cute place! We were going to eat at another restaurant near by, but they couldn’t accommodate. Walked to Vals and they were so quick! The food and drinks were amazing and the staff were so sweet! Definitely want to come back with some friends when I visit again.“

“Quiet & cute Mexican restaurant tucked away from the hustle and bustle of New Orleans busy streets. The vibe is chill, the drinks are all amazing, and the food is beyond delicious! The owner is very friendly and personable. The staff is very knowledgeable of the menu and friendly. As I was newly diagnosed with celiac disease, it was so refreshing & comforting to find out most of their menu with the exception of their tortas are gluten-free. Definitely while in NOLA a must experience restaurant!“

“Probably as authentic as you'd find around the city + outside of Mexico. I've never been a huge fan of chicken tacos but these were wonderful! So fresh tasting, so simple--like authentic tacos should be. Add in some grilled onions, cilantro, fresh salsa, lime, salt...BUENO! Thank you for bringing a slice of great Mexican cuisine to the city! I will be be back to eat these in the parking lot again!“

“These are the most fabulous tacos I've had in years and their only peer in New Orleans is Casa Borega. Skillet fried soft corn tortillas full of fabulous beef and fillings. I tried three sauces the red arbol the red tomatillo and the guaca salsa. All were delicious but the red arbol is what spicy should be. Enough to make you sit up and take notice but not ruin the rest of your meal. This is way far from my house but I will be back.“
