I ordered a macho quesadilla and though it as chicken and cheese only but then I found it also had chorizo in it and I didn’t read the menu properly online before ordering it. The guy had glasses and tattoos on hand, he was nice and replaced it for me on spot and it was quick. I would recommend place to anyone for food quality food.

I have been coming to this establishment for some years now and when it comes to service,food and drinks…nobody holds a candle to this restaurant. Ask for Marcus,he’s the man!!!

I came to El Taco Macho April 12th and had an excellent time. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, the food was excellent. I had the Guadalajara taco’s and street corn. The chicken was moist and flavorful with perfectly warmed flour tortillas. I also had a lychee margarita and it was the highlight of me evening. It was perfectly sweet with a nice tequila kick, I will 100% be returning. My server Marques was kind, knowledgeable and prompt. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will continue to give this restaurant my business.

This is the hidden gem of Lake County! The food, drinks, and service can't be beat! Marcus is a fantastic server. Try the Don Chepe margarita, the beer on tap from Pulp Brewing, the Berria tacos, and don't forget the churros!

Excellent food! I had the Poblano Burrito and was very happy with my choice. Others at my table for the birria tacos, Guadalajara tacos and the tacos fiesta with chorizo instead of beef. All of them were raving about their meals as well. Only thing I think they could improve on was the lime margaritas. We got a pitcher to share of the lime margaritas and it was what seemed to be all sour mix.

The service is friendly and attentive. The food is delicious and filling. Be careful of the margaritas... they're a little bit TOO wonderful...?

Had a bad first experience, but alas I was surprisingly impressed with the tasty quality of my second visit and I'm willing to give this place 5 stars.

Met up here with a friend. Service was great! I was thrilled they had a Lychee Margarita, which was delicious! As were the Tamales we split, and my Birria Tacos. My friend was pleased with the Mar y Tierra Burrito. It was our first time at El Taco Macho, and we look forward to next time!
