“I didn't know what to get so I got Tres Amigos. After eating I really wanted to relax but while eating the server dropped off the ticket. I'd only been there 30 minutes and maybe eating for 20. So I know when you order from the drink menu sometimes you would get better service but I was on the way to work! So I put my taco into a box with my chips and went on my way to work. At home I opened up my box to eat my taco. All it was was beef in a tortilla. Kind of disappointed now. Too tired to call in and say something and its 10:06pm.“
“So far I've had the caldo de res, menudo, and lengua and pastor tacos. Everything was excellent, and the pastor tacos were particularly well made.I love that they have a drive through, it's very convenient. Everyone I've interacted with is very nice.“
“The manger who runs this establishment does a "EXCELLENT" job. When she took a Two week vacation she was definitely missed. The food quality went down. Order was missed up and the onions were already beginning to brown on the condiment bar. When she returned is was all fresh and the food was delicious. Lose the management you will lose some customers. I think a raise should be in order. We'll done manger!Kid-friendliness: The people are always friendly. Great attitudes and friendly smiles. At least in the mornings when my son and I go eat breakfast.“
“The servers were so friendly and polite and the food was great! My friends and I enjoyed our time here and would eagerly come back.Definitely order the chips w/salsa, guacamole, and queso! My favorite was the salsa which came out warm and had a kick to the spice, but not overwhelmingly.“
“This establishment is truly remarkable. The culinary offerings are of exceptional quality, and the service provided was expeditious. I must reiterate that the freshness of the food was particularly impressive. Their salsa is a delightful accompaniment to the meal.“
“This place a is great! Drinks are delicious. Food is delicious. Atmosphere and location are prime. Imagine yourself sitting outside on a nice spring day, drinking a mezcalita, and eating 1/2 price apps with your favorite friends. The fresh breeze is softly grazing past you while you people watch and listen to Latino hits playing in the background. At Maria Mezcaleria, all this can be yours.I usually get the sopes app because there are three of them, and that’s pretty filling for me. However, the enchiladas are so delicious ??“
“I’m craving the yucca fries already. Smaller place but that just makes for a more intimate experience. Worth any wait if you get there and there is one; we went a little later in the evening and there was an open table for us upon arrival. We all got something different and shared bites of each other’s meal and everything just was so good. I remember when they opened in Union Hall a while back and we tried it and probably went back 4 or 5 times that week and it was our go to place to bring friends from out of town….that being said this location was even better I think. Definitely will go back and hopefully soon. The salsa was delicious and even though it had a little kick, I couldn’t stop eating it or get enough!“
“Stopped in and had 3 tacos, corn in a cup, and a bottled Coke. All the tacos were great (asada, carnitas, chicharron) and corn was not watery or dry. Area was clean and lighting was great as the sun had already set. I ordered and was given a buzzer that went off when my order was ready. Will definitely visit again when I'm in the area.“
“I just got off work late, so hungry. This place, I've been wanting to try, and it was right by my house. So, I stopped and ordered a birria quesadilla with a pineapple water. I realized I left my wallet at home, I told her she could cancel or I could go grab my wallet real quick. She was so nice! They were closing, she said go grab it and it would be ready. I didn't take me 5 minutes to come back. My food was hot and ready, all the fixings and my diet Dr. Kelp rerren to go ... I didn't even make it home and my food was almost gone .. sooooooo delicious! Pineapple water, 5 stars all the way... New fave! I love this place and the people too! They are the sweetest!“
“Whenever we're at the Waco Downtown Farmer's Market, we ALWAYS stop by Muchos Tacos. Their barbacoa tacos are seriously the best, and we've loved everything else we've tried, too! Definitely something on the menu for everyone! I also love that they're a small business operating in the area. Our interactions with everyone on staff have been nothing but positive!Kid-friendliness: The street corn tacos are the perfect size for small hands! Full flavor but spice is added by taste through the various salsas offered.“
“If you live in Waco and you haven't tried La Chona, you don't know what you have in town. I live in Fort Worth and I drive all the way there for their delicious and very authentic Mexican food.I've had, chiles rellenos, mole, sopes, tacos, and even the Semana Santa special food which was nopalitos con tortas de camarón. ???Eating here is like eating at my mom's. That good this place is!Best taquería in Waco without a doubt and the service is always excellent!!!5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
“This place is tucked in, the dude has a nice car I went and got some tacos and honestly there were great the chips were great and the sauce was great the price was great. Definitely going there again I had to do this review go check em out!“
“I have to yell from the rooftop how amazing the service and food is at LA Fiesta. There is one particular person I really want to shout out also. Everytime I see her I call her AWESOME!!! Her customer service skills are spot on and she will get you right everytime. SADE that's my girl come check her out on $2 Magarita Tuesdays at the bar. As this generation says she is a whole vibe. Don't believe me? Come by for yourself especially on a Tuesday and watch my girl work and keep you satisfied. I had to shout her out just to give her roses an individual. Again people come check her outand show her some LOVE!!!“
“Delicious pupusas and friendly service! We will definitely be back the next time we are in Waco.Parking: The house is on a corner in a neighborhood, parking is on the street in the neighborhood and we had no trouble finding a place to park.“
“The best tacos in Waco. The only thing they're missing is a better sauce. But above all they are delicious. I recommend them!!! Order from Asada, tongue, barbecue. The meat was very soft and the tacos were hot. I didn't look at corn.“
“I went and got tamales today? Yummy!!!! She even let me try a hot one which I thought I could handle lol, she offered me water I told her I could handle it, got in the car took a bite and OMG ? THAT WAS HOT! BUT GOOD!!! ? Thanks for making awesome tamales and being so nice.“
“Very delicious food! My kids and I are from out of town & I told them you can never go wrong with a taco truck. I was not even wrong. Fresh hot delicious food, wonderful service and a nice safe little spot here. Definitely will come back when in the area Gracias!“
“Being from Chihuahua I am always looking for something that reminds me of home, they had amazing food and atmosphere, you can tell they work well as a team, we had huevos rancheros and their chips and salsa was a hit, the barbacoa burrito, chorizo and egg, let’s just say all of their food was made with Gods hands. Homemade tortilla set the bar high, amazing flavor. Will come back if in the area. Thank you to the staff and team. Bendiciones“
“It's been a while since I've posted a review, but these guys are totally worth it. I had the Torta Cubana. It was huge and delicious! The bread was fresh and had just the right amount of toastiness. It was crunchy but not hard. It was so good I ordered two more tortas to go, just so my family could try them. Great service too! The owner is the cook and the wife is at the register, so you know it'll be good. When in Waco, totally try out this small inconspicuous hole on the wall spot!“
“Best taco I’ve had in my life! Very nice staff and AMAZING food! First off, the waitress gave us a heaping basket of tortilla chips and salsa! She returned frequently to refill our drinks and check in on us. Very retro decorations and great atmosphere!“
“First time to Torchys and definitely not the last. Although I don't live or work in Waco anymore, a friend and I had lunch here on Monday. It was a "missed you" and "you've got this" for something she's facing this week. The fajitas were amazing!! Thank you!! Keep up the great everything!“
“Good food, and a good location. The parking lot is very small. Always busy here. Best to order ahead of arrival, otherwise you could be waiting for a little longer than you might want. This isn't a place for sit-down and dining, the building is very small. However, your food will be hot, delicious, and the perfect portion. No complaints. Would be great if they opened up in more locations.Parking: Small, cramped. Not good for extended trucks.“
“The Barbacoa was delicious. Called in an order for pick up. The person on the phone was very patient and answered all of my questions. Upon arrival, we were greeted by all staff. The place had a welcoming feeling. We will definitely be going back.“
“Scott Drew knows so you should know, this place is LEGIT! Nothing like it in places like Kentucky. Tex Mex that brings the family together for the sake of Baylor Basketball. Thank you Mi Casita for your heartfelt food and embracing booths for dining. We love you! Historical landmark“
“Love everything have had here! Food is fresh and delicious. Service and people are wonderful! The breakfast burritos are huge and made to order fresh. Fajitas, tacos, and charro beans are the best! Highly recommend and cant wait go back try something else!“
“This place was amazing!!! All of the staff were very kind people and the food was incredible. The meals came out quickly and it was easily some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. From the Alamo Plate, which was extremely fresh, to the Burrito Bowl, every aspect of the food was delicious—even the chips were incredible. My family thoroughly enjoyed our experience and we highly recommend this restaurant.“
“We love the soup and go there for soup when it's cold. They also have very good fish taco's. The service is good and the location is in the Union Hall which is convenient if your friends and family want to order something different.“
“Just recently moved the to lacy lakeview area, taqueria Zacatecas on lasalle has always been my go to so I’ve been driving way there but when I tell you this is my new fav spot I mean that. I’m so glad I found a good taco truck closer to where I live now. I got the barbocoa torta it’s hugeeeee for $8 & delicious must I mention.. & the corn in the cup omg so good. Definitely will be back“
“The quality is so good for the price. The staff were very friendly, especially Alexes, who chatted with me while I waited for my order! I got the I-Chee-Wa-Wa and the Green Chile Mac and Cheese and will be coming back for sure. Definitely the best place to get tacos near campus!“
“We had Andrea as our server. She was very friendly and personable, answered any questions we had, and knew the menu.We got the guacamole salad, chicken fajitas, and a combo plate. I forgot the name.Chips were crisp, salsa was nice with a building heat, and while the guacamole was just mashed avocados, they were perfectly ripe. Huge chunks of chicken for the fajitas. The tamales were so good as were the charro beans, refried beans, and the RICE. The rice was very tasty.The prices were extremely fair.Will absolutely return.“
“My Fiance and I eat here a lot as we live right down the road so it's convient . The wait staff is on point and very friendly always smiling and never have to wait for refills or our ticket .Kid-friendliness: They are good with the children I have seen in there it's a good ole family environment ?Parking: It's a big parking lot with handicap spaces and plenty of front door and parking lot spaces .“

“I went to BU and have been going to this food truck since 2012, been here numerous times as a college student, and keep coming back even after graduation. Their burritos are fresh, large, great quality of meat and veggies, and always served piping hot. Their tortilla is soft and flaky, holds all the ingredients really well, and never gets soggy. The portion sizes big and totally worth your money. One of my fav places in Waco!HIGHLY RECOMMEND!The only downside is they are open for limited hours and days, so def check before going.“
“El Crucero can do no wrong.Well, since they have gone cash-only, it's been harder to make it by frequently. But everything they do is just right. Their breakfast tacos are nearly the best in Waco. For the price, they definitely are—$2 each.I have had their lunch tacos as well. All of them are good, but the pastor and asada are my favorites. Both salsas are delicious. The red is milder than the green.Their tortillas are delicious. I was recently able to purchase a dozen flour tortillas for a family dinner. Better than store bought!Head over there and check them out. But remember to take cash. You can have breakfast as low as $2 and a solid lunch for as little as $6-8.“
“Martha's is our favorite place to get breakfast burritos. We go most weekends and enjoy the delicious homeade food and tortillas, chips and salsa. We are always greeted by the friendly ladies and are so glad we found this place! The restaurant is small and cozy located right off 19th street. They close at 2:40 pm or we would probably visit more often. I also have tried the Carne Guisada and Street Tacos which are both very good. I have probably tried a few other things, but the mentioned food have been favorites so I reorder them alot. Most of our burritos have Chicken Fajita, eggs, potatoes, and avacado. My husband and I highly recommend this restaurant and have plans to take more of our family there.Parking: The parking is a few spots in front and on side bit extends to the back.“
“What delicious Mexican burgers ? you have a variety of tacos, burritos, soft drinks and they have just added very good desserts, the portions are a very good size and the costs are affordable; You can eat there or take away. On the weekend there are a lot of people...“

“Sometimes you just need a cool shady place to munch on some chips and salsa and drink an icy beverage: this is the place! The family was tired from exploring so we popped into Ninfa's for lunch. There was something for everyone, even my very selective eater. Highly recommend for families.“
“I went in with a friend and the owner kindly greeted us and broke down the menu as it was our first time. As we waited she chatted, made a connection, and told us about the area. The service was quick and the food was incredible! Thank you Mrs. Evans!“

“There is no one in Waco who has legitimate Huaraches except Gary’s Grill. Don’t let the American sounding name fool you. This is a family business and their recipes come directly from Guadalajara, Mexico! No Tex-Mex!!! They use fresh ingredients, made to order. Tortillas are always handmade to perfection! Their customer service is first class. You will never be disappointed with your order. But if by some chance you are… they will definitely make it right. That’s just who they are! Great people with great food and a great business. Don’t hesitate to give them a try!Vegetarian options: They can make a vegetarian version.Kid-friendliness: They are happy to make your order suitable for your kid.“
“First time eating here it was delicious ordered the menudo so did my mom we just loved it compare to other places if I lived closer this is one Mexican restaurant I would love to return to everything was a great experience I highly recommend this restaurant great experience..“
“I've been passing this place by ALL YEAR (about 5 times)...this time circumstances demanded that I stop...Shame on me...this is one of those roadside spots that WE ALL NEED...we got the Whole Chicken & it was as good as it smells...you can smell grilled chicken in all 4 directions for at least a block...Absolutely recommend“
“Huevos Rancheros was very good. Chorizo scramble was great too. Loved the choices of hot sauces and table salsa and chips were fresh. Homemade flour tortillas. Everything cooked perfectly. Portions are not stingy. Full all day. Nice decor, great service too.“
“Sometimes you think where there will be good and different food, apart from the traditional fajitas that all Mexican restaurants sell, this place Magueyes is very delicious, the food I give it a 100, come and see the truth, I come to new places and say debut and farewell, but here I return again. 100 ?Recommended very good “
“Wonderful experience. Our server, Jesus, was personable and helped make for a great dining experience. When I asked him about the drinks, he brought the bartender, Dominic, to our table. We had an old fashioned, peach margarita, and Mexican martini. These were some of the best drinks we have had. All of the flavors were perfectly balanced. These were top quality cocktails.The food was excellent as well. Well seasoned, cooked perfectly, and great blend of flavors.My family would definitely come back next time we are in Waco and I would recommend this as a restaurant to try.“
“Great food place! The food is tasty and the prices reasonable. It’s more of a pick-up food place rather than a stay-and-eat place.Their strong suit is their chicken package with 1 whole chicken, rice, charro beans, tortillas, grilled onion, and salsas all for $20. It feeds about 4 grown hungry men and it’s a good deal. It is ready in about 3 minutes.The chicken has a good flavor of being grilled over coal. The rice is decent. The charro beans have good flavor. The salsas are good but the green one is especially good.The taqueria has a wide range of food. They also have a rib package which is a bit pricier than the chicken but still good and tender. The pupusas are good and made on the spot so it has a bit of wait time. Their fresh waters are good and huge. Their tamales are good sized if a bit lacking in taste.There is ample parking and wheelchair accessible.Try this place it’s really good, with a wide selection, and reasonably priced.“
“I specifically came here to check out their chicharron and I was not disappointed. It is very crunchy just as I'd hoped. I will be telling all my Filipino friends to come here to buy crunchy fried pork belly!!! The ladies here are homey and the price for the chicharron is very reasonable.“
“We came here once when it was first open, and I was not impressed. I have to say, tho, they have figured it out! We recently returned here, and everything we tried was so delicious! From the salsa to the enchiladas and on to the guacamole, so yummy! The servers are attentive, check back, and keep your tea filled. Oh, and the tea is really good, too! You won't be disappointed if you choose to eat here. You will, however, be full as a tick and still wanting to eat more! Can't wait to return...see you there!“
“This place is so dang delicious, and the people are really nice as well. Nice tables, chairs, very clean bathrooms. And overall great experience. 100% going to go again soon.Kid-friendliness: Super clean environment, no harsh words being spoken by the staff, and I don’t remember there being any music played. But if there was it was definitely clean otherwise I probably wouldn’t have eaten there.Wheelchair accessibility: Really easy to get to, even with a wheel chair.“
“Best tacos, tortas, quesadillas, Birria…everything is 10 out of 10! Food is always fresh, service is always great, it’s definitely a plus for Waco and surrounding areas! The Waco location and the Hewitt location are both worth the drive ! Oh and they cater !! 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!“
