About Tacos El Gordo

Tacos El Gordo is a hidden gem serving authentic Mexican cuisine. The menu boasts an impressive selection of options, including delicious shrimp tacos, fish tacos, and ground beef tacos made with perfectly cooked and seasoned meat, all served on homemade corn tortillas. The restaurant also features a buffet and has two locations. Don't miss the amazing tamales, including traditional chicken and jalapeño and cheese varieties, as well as ground beef empanadas, brisket tacos, and pupusas. The friendly staff and daily specials make it a must-visit. Be prepared for tight parking, but it's well worth the minor hassle. With $1 tacos on certain days and specials throughout the week, this spot is a great value. There is a slight concern about some prices being higher than other local Mexican restaurants, but the great food, service, and atmosphere make it a recommended choice.

very nasty restaurant pay $60for 3 buffet and I came out hungry. The tamales don't have no meat. I only eat chips and cheese and rice, very cold. never go back. I do not recommend it.🥲

absolutely amazing food!

I love Taco El Gordo, the times I have went they treated me like family. Everyone is so friendly, even the owner. The food is first class, so don’t judge the place from the outside. The meats they serve in the food is unlike anything I’ve tasted. It taste like they butchered and prepared the meats fresh that day. I’m addicted to this place and need to increase my budget so I can eat here everyday. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, it’s a well kept secret spot.
