I absolutely love this place! The ambience is fantastic. The food is a delicacy! Prices are a little high, but the explosive flavor seems to make up for it as I continue to return for a minimum of three tacos, each visit. Creamy pastor The OG The Bird The Feeling California

Tried the OG and the Bird tacos. Both were amazing. Friendly service. But most of the tables were not cleaned during our visit. Highly recommend their tacos!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Eli Jessop · Jan 2026

This was our first time here, and we were excited to try it because of the great reviews, so the experience was unfortunately disappointing. We waited over 30 minutes for four $5 tacos to-go. We were told it would only take a few minutes, but the wait ended up being much longer, and the food was lukewarm by the time we received it. There were only two employees working, and they were clearly doing their best. This isn’t a reflection of the staff at all — it seemed more like an understaffing and operations issue. Online pickup orders appeared to be prioritized, as the pickup shelf was full while in-store customers continued waiting. We understand it’s the holiday season and places can be short-staffed, but longer-than-normal wait times should be communicated upfront. Clearer expectations

The female cashier was so nice and helpful suggesting best menu items. My husband got the bang bang taco and the Gringo taco. He said thats the best tacos I've had in a long time. His side was smoked elote and wow. I got the brisket taco salad and I've never had a salad with so much flavor in every bite. We got the churro fries and so amazing. The guys ccoking even went over and beyond to give us a great experience. They check on us to make sure everything was good and offered us to go containers. Top notch service. Pricing is very reasonable for what you get. We will be back. We visited Wednesday January 28th around 4pm

Wow, this is no ordinary salad! I like salad but they can become so boring and common. You won’t find that issue at the smokes taco! If you love flavors and textures this could be the salad for you! I can’t tell you exactly what they had on it but there were lots of crunchy things that added so much to the salad. The menu says candied jalapeños. I didn’t taste hot or spicy but apparently they gave a lovely little pop of sweet. I chose the smoked pork which was wonderful! Walking through the restaurant I sneaked glances at the food on people’s plates. I saw amazing looking tacos which appeared to be unique and different, nothing ordinary about this food from what I could see. I don’t live in the area and I was trying to figure out how I could get another salad before I left town the next
