Customer Reviews
Absolutely delicious! The man working the register and I think also making all the food himself was so kind and friendly. He also waited our table which I was very surprised about! He was very informative when we told him it was our first time and he’s a lovely conversation. But then he also gave us our quality time with just our table. 10/10 highly recommend just for him. The birria tacos street style were delicious. And they have specials everyday I believe except Sunday. Very good traditional and modern Mexican. They even serve tamales! Which I was so excited to see. It is a bit small. So groups of 1-3 is probably best.
I went there for take out, I ordered birria taco combo. So I got 3 tacos, beans and rice. I also ordered a piece of flan. I paid like 25 bucks, for very mediocre food. The tacos were just ok. Nothing to bring me back. The rice and beans were not good at all, like they have been sitting in the fridge for a week. I couldn't even eat it. The flan.... my white daughter makes it better. The texture was way off, and the flavor was not very good either. Which is unfortunate because that is one of my favorite things. I would not go out of your way to visit. The restaurant is cute, the woman who waited on me was decent. Took my order, then went and got it ready herself. I was just very disappointed in the quality. I feel like the food they are serving is just very old. I understan
Previous reviews were either 5 or 2. Not sure what happened with those who left a 2. This is authentic Mexican food with American style options I can only guess that the 2’s ate American style at a real Mexican food provider. We ordered a variety of tacos and carne asada burrito. Everything was spot on delicious. It’s a small restaurant in a strip mall. The atmosphere reminded me of places in El Paso. I can’t really eat atmosphere so it’s not a big deal to me. BEST taco/burrito place in Brighton. If you have never been, you gotta go.
Just stopped into Happy Taco for a photo shoot and owner Santiago and his associates were awesome, friendly, and quick to please. A variety of food was made for the shoot and it all looked delicious. Was able to sample the Pizza Birria and it was pretty good. I also got to take out a Quesadilla Fajita and it was absolutely filled with meat, spicy and very delicious! If you're in Brighton and want to try a different Mexican place, this business is pretty new so give them a shot!
You have one shot to impress me! I actually gave Happy Taco two opportunities before I decided to write this review. Atmosphere: MUSIC IS TOO LOUD!! The place is small and you can’t have a conversation with your friends or family. Definitely need a fountain drink station! Need curtains as the sun was blinding as you sit and eat at the window table. Service: This was the best quality about Happy taco. Both times the service was good and definitely have a friendly staff. Food: First time I got Birria tacos. The tacos themselves were definitely subpar and the Consommé was lukewarm. Really disappointed as this is one of my favorite dishes at Mexican restaurants. 2nd Time I got 3 tacos with rice and beans. Both side dishes were cold! I can’t imagine anyone enjoying cold rice and cold beans. The
