Customer Reviews
Stepping into this taco spot was like finding a genuine Denton hidden gem! The atmosphere is great, but the service is what truly makes the experience unforgettable. The taquero is incredibly welcoming; on my first visit, they even let me try two tacos for free just to sample the quality! When it’s slower, the owner comes out and serves the food in waves, creating a personalized culinary experience that shows they genuinely want you to enjoy every bite. The food itself is nothing short of an OMG moment—easily some of the best, most authentic tacos I've ever had. Everything is perfectly seasoned and comes in generous portions, from the crispy saudero to the flavorful campechano. However, the absolute star of the show is the Al Pastor taco. The combination of the perfectly prepared meat wi
****DENTON HIDDEN GEM**** OMG. Best tacos I’ve ever had. We got an array of different items, everything was absolutely amazing. The two stars of the show were the quesadilla and al pastor tacos. The pineapple on top of the al pastor was the biggest flavor explosion I’ve ever had while eating a taco. My husband and I were talking about it and think they may have been the best tacos we’ve ever had. The other great part about this spot, is that at least when it is slow, he will come out and serve your food to you in waves. It was like sharing an experience with a chef that really wanted you to enjoy your food. I so hope this place takes off and stays. I will be back weekly!
I decided to try this place after seeing the amazing reviews. When I arrived, the owner noticed I hadn’t been there before so he let me try 2 tacos FOR FREE. I ended up buying 2 pastor tacos & 2 campechano tacos and they were the best tacos I’ve EVER HAD. 10/10 would recommend!!!
Street tacos con sabor! Don't look any further, the best street tacos in Denton can be found right behind Zoom Zooms! Have Mauricio whip up some delectable Mexican fare for you! He's a super kind guy and makes damn good food. He recommended the Suadero beef tacos and they did not disappoint, in fact I ordered two more to go! Stay local, stay Denton!
This is a hidden gem in Denton. The Taquero is very welcoming and gives you 2 free tacos to try on your first visit. I got Pastor with piña and caramelized onions is amazing a little taste of Mexico. Saudero Tacos were crispy, hot ,and fresh off the grill to die for. Highly recommend them if you want authentic tacos.
