Customer Reviews
This was amazing. Great food at a reasonable price. I had a lingua, chorizo and pastor taco that were all delicious. This isn’t a fancy spot, but the food was so good. The salsas brought the flavor and heat, and the grilled onions on the side were really good as well. We will be back again for sure.
Excellent place to enjoy Authentic Mexican Taqueria. Everything is delicious, with great flavor and generous portions. The service is friendly and fast — they always make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is pleasant and perfect for going with family or friends. Also, the prices are very reasonable for the excellent quality of food and service they offer. Without a doubt, one of my favorite restaurants — highly recommended!
Honest review. For preface. Im from california. I went here with very low expectations. I found the hot sauces to be veey cali style. The meats were good too. I had the adobada tacos. Above avg. Better in pork than beef in my opinion. I also had the torta in al pastor. Above avg. And the asada burritto. Also abv average. Cant compare with my favorite of king taco in los angeles. But this is better than amything in dallas t x where i live now. If i lived in springfield missouri i might come back weekly. Also the.hot sauces were very california style rather tham tex mex. I highly recommend this place. Also value for food is good. The interior atmosphere is very bland. All in all. 4 of 5 stars. Thats better than most places ive rated in dallas. Lol.
I ordered a to go meal. Right off the bat it was 17 dollars for 4 tacos with a side of rice and beans. The rice and beans lacked flavor, and the beans were not standard beans you would expect from a Mexican restraunt. The meat was too fatty and lacked flavor as well, there was only one tortilla for the street style taco and the tortilla tasted rather raw instead of cooked, liked it wasn’t seared with enough oil or for long enough. Additionally, the salsa verde and red salsa that came with the tacos were both flavorless and not spicy enough for my liking. The customer service was very good but the meal for 17 dollars wasn’t up to par with other Mexican cuisine. Of course, Springfield isn’t known for good Mexican food like Austin Texas or Tulsa OK, I would say this is subpar compared to othe
Classic Taco Shop. Better than Mexico. They make fresh tortillas on the spot when you order...100% awesome. Counter person nice. Spoke to the owner very nice. Kitchen looks very very clean. Restaurant is nice. Clean. Professional. Very happy to have a place like this open up. Loved the food. Excellent!
