About Taco Bell
Taco Bell is a haven for Mexican delicacies such as tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos, and other specialty items. Owned by Yum! Brands, Inc. Taco Bell is one of the fastest growing American chains of fast food restaurants. The restaurant operates from 7,072 different locations which are mostly run by independent franchisees and licensees.
The background story of Taco Bell is interesting and inspiring for budding entrepreneurs. The fast-food brand is the brainchild of Glen Bell, who started his first food venture as a hot dog seller in San Bernardino, California. The year was 1948. After witnessing long queues outside a Mexican restaurant called Mitla Café across the street, Bell saw the opportunity and demand for hard-shelled Tacos. He reverse-engineered the recipe and later started selling Tacos and called the venture Taco-Tia.
Later, the name changed from Taco-Tia to El Taco. Eventually, Glen Bell sold the company to his partner and opened the first Taco Bell in Downey in 1962. By 1964, the restaurant also got its first franchise in Torrance. The 100th Taco Bell restaurant was opened by 1965. PepsiCo acquired Taco Bell from Glen Bell in 1978 and the restaurant brand is currently a subsidiary of Yum! Brands which looks after the restaurant business of PepsiCo.

Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Some of the best tacos I've had in Colorado. You know it's authentic when the menu is mostly in Spanish and they serve lengua! I recommend the tacos al pastor with green & orange salsa on top.
(5)Johnathon B.
Decided to try this place out since we were in the area. I really love tacos and heard about this place with the yelp app finder. We walked in and it pretty clean, no complaints. The server was polite and was patient while my girlfriend and I looked over the menu. I order the carne asada taco, chicken taco and the carnitas taco. Once my order came out, I was amazed! Each taco was stuffed with the ordered meat and I was happy as a kid in a candy store! These are street style tacos, and I loved the way each one tasted. They have a salsa bar near the counter where you can choose from a variety of kinds depending on taste and spicy level. There was also lettuce and limes to choose from. Overall I would definitely come back the next time I am in the neighborhood!
(5)Josh B.
I needed a cheap lunch on the way into Denver, and Tacos Y Salsas fit the bill. They were crowded at noon on a weekday, but service is cheerful and efficient in English or Spanish. Prices are very...cheap. My 3 tacos and large aqua fresca came to a whopping $6. The meat in the tacos was a bit bland. If chicken isn't grilled, then I expect it to be stewed in chile and flavorful. The beef was a bit better, once I picked out a giant piece of gristle. The selection of aquas frescas is very limited, but the piña was fresh and delicious and a large cost only $1. As everyone else has written, yes, there is a nice salsa bar with something to fit every taste, and they'll get you in and out in a hurry. I'll certainly be back if I get hungry while cruising down Federal in Westminster.
(3)Jason L.
These are hands down the BEST street tacos around. Al Pastor, Barbacoa, Deshebrada, Carnitas...You cant go wrong. Great salsa bar (my favorite is the "orange") and roasted peppers. Also, the ceviche tostada is excellent.
(5)Melissa H.
mmm homemade corn tortillas packed full of deliciously tender, greasy meat ... and lots of salsa choices? Cheap prices? SOLD! You just can't beat $1.55 per taco when TWO is plenty! I ordered the carnitas which was fantastically tender and the asada which was not quite as tender as the pork, but very flavorful. Tacos y Salsas is bright, cheery, and friendly inside. We seated ourselves and a friendly waitress brought us our menus and took our drink orders. Coke, Sprite, and other assorted beverages are in a cooler and are the gigantic glass bottles. The salsa bar consisted of several red and green salsas as well as onions, radishes, pickled jalapenos, and roasted jalapenos.
(4)Melisa A.
Love the tacos de carnitas and asada. Love the different salsas.
(4)Alethea S.
It's so nice to find a place where the food is good, the salsa is great and the people are super friendly. Is the food outta this world? No, but for the price it's a great deal. The part we loved the most was the authenticity. We will be back for sure.
(4)Christian S.
After months of searching we found a legit Mexican place. Cheap, good food.
(5)Robin M.
Second stop on our latest taco tour after a brief run into Rancho Liborio -- great looking foods and merchandise -- I'm going back to shop! But before shopping, remember the old adage about not buying groceries on an empty stomach and stop in at Tacos Y Salsas for a great meal or snack. You'll be glad you did. Pacing myself for the next two stops, I once again had a single taco al pastor. This was outstanding -- luscious little cubes of tender, flavorful meat. No pineapple, though, what's up with that? Maybe you have to ask for it. Dave had ordered extra pineapple on his taco, and they really loaded it up so he shared his supply with me. Adding a gourmet touch, the pineapple here was grilled. Wow, now that is a taco. This was my favorite al pastor of the tour. Everyone seemed pretty well pleased with their selections. The salsa bar is gorgeous and well supplied. The only disappointment is that the beer on the menu has not yet come to pass. Darn. I'm sure that means it's just awaiting approval though, and then -- oh boy. But it's hard to imagine that even beer is going to improve upon this place, and that's saying something.
(5)Sulema M.
Man was I disappointed in this location. Maybe it was an off day or something. It was Sunday, incredibly busy and the wait for food was terribly long. Oh well, I just got done busting my butt doing some house chores and needed a break so FH and I strolled on down to get lunch to go. I had been to the Colfax location many times and always had tasty tacos. Well, not this time and definately not here. I ordered lengua (tongue) tacos and a barbacoa gordita. My FH ordered adovada tacos. As we loaded up at the salsa station and waited for our order, we observed the one lone gal waiting tables, taking orders, and answering the phone. She was busy! We sat at the bar area (no bar, but looks like one) and watched mexican rodeo reruns for a while, listened to music, looked at the CD's for sale outside and finally, our food came. We whisked it off to home and dug in. What followed afterwards was just plain yuck. My lengua meat was tough, like rubber and full of fat. Did I mention salty? I felt like I was eating meat marinated with salt lick or something. I think I had at least 3 glasses or water to with my tacos. Ugh. As I looked at my orange gordita, I had hope, BUT, was let down. My gordita was full of barbacoa fat. The meat was hella white (full of fat) and floating in grease. *Sigh*. My FH's tacos turned out to be asada instead of adovada and were like eating rubber nuggets. *sigh* again. I guess I could see why the order was wrong. One lady doing all the work could've mistaken adovada for asada while talking on the phone juggling plates. Overall, won't go back. I can get better tacos down the street.
(2)Kensey W.
yum! this place was delicious. i had steak tacos and a carnitas gordita. when they first came, i was disappointed because they were a little bare. i asked the waitress for some lime wedges and she pointed me to a salsa bar! there were at least ten or twelve compartments in the salsa bar, which was a free-for-all. i loaded up on lime wedges, three different kinds of salsa, and pickled radishes. best part was that i didn't have to pick onions out of my tacos - i could just not get them at the salsa bar! it was also ridiculously cheap. i had two tacos, a gordita, a jarritos soda, and the boyf got a flautas dinner plate with rice, beans, and guacamole. we were uncomfortably full and the bill was still under $15. yessss. my only complaints would be that the guacamole was kind of tasteless and they did not have tamales.
(4)Anne C.
I love this place. Cheap, tasty tacos. Good salsa bar with plenty of variety. I like that they use the regular size corn tortillas, versus the mini ones you see at other places, and they are generous with the meat. Great value!
(5)Dave P.
Good tacos, great price and a Salsa bar! A little hard to find and get too, but worth it!
(4)David W.
Not bad. I knew I was in for a treat when I saw grandma behind the counter pressing fresh tortillas. Chips decent, salsa bar fair. Chicken Enchiladas with the green sauce very good though very heavy. Rice and beans A-OK. Needed a nap after that meal. In-Joy
(3)Doug Y.
This used to be my favorite taco joint in denver. Not just because they weren't across town but because they did pretty much everything better than their other two locations. The last few times we ate there, the seasoning on the meats was't the same. The al pastor is under seasoned, has none of the pineapple flavor that it used to and there's no crunch from getting grilled on the flat top, the carnitas were mushy and again low in flavor and the chorizo tasted suspiciously like Cacique brand or some other out of the package meat and also lacked any crunch from the griddle. The amount of meat on each taco is still very abundant and the salsa bar is still hit or miss with mostly hits and the tortillas are still being made to order but what happened to the original flavor? I'll have to go back to one of the other two locations and see if it's just this one store. For now they fall way down on my list of favorites.
(3)Jason M. L.
Gotta love salsa bars! Had the shredded beef torta, it was perfect amounts of meat and fixings, no mayo and plenty of guacamole. Reasonable pricing, but dine in is hot in the evenings when sun is shining through the windows. All around great salsa bar place. But nothing that separates it from the others.
(3)Molly O.
Hopefully these aren't my last words, but if they are I wish to spread the word of how terrible this place is to save someone's life. I had already eaten a whole taco, it wasn't even good! I take a bite of the second taco, put it down, it falls over and BAM! I look down to see the atrocity... A raw piece of chicken staring right at me. I froze in revolting terror. Who knows how much raw chicken I've already consumed! I shouldn't have to check my food before I eat it. Bad bad bad!
(1)Sara K.
Worst food of my life. Too greasy and it looked like vomit on my plate. My friend went and puked half way through the meal. Worst place ever. The music was so loud we could barely hear each other. Absolutely the worst.
(1)Eric S.
Some of the worst tacos I've ever had. The barbacoa looked like mystery meat and the asada literally tasted kind of fishy. Pastor was gross too...and I know my tacos. If a Mexican place can't do tacos they shouldn't be in business. NEVER going back
(1)Niki V.
Let me just start off saying that we went to this place on a hangover..... BIG MISTAKE.... I ordered a chicken taco for my son, chicken and pastor tacos for my BF, and a chicken taco for myself and a "chicharron" taco... Now I don't know about you, but when I hear chicharron I think of crunchy yummy goodness.... So naturally who wouldn't want a chicharron taco.... WRONG..... My tacos came out and my "chicharron" taco was this white blubbery blob if fatty shit in a corn tortilla... It was F'N SICK! Did I mention I was on a hangover??? Just the stench alone from the taco was making me nauseous... it smelled so bad I couldn't even eat my other taco. So I sent it back. Not even taking one bite out of my food, my appetite was ruined at this point and I didn't want anything else. I just wanted my money back. I asked the waitress and she refused to give me a refund!!! She said they don't do that there. I asked her to speak to the manager, she has another guy come and talk to me, and he tells me the same thing... So at this point I'm livid. And I'm telling at the waitress to give me my money back. She says the owner isn't there, so I told her she better get them on the phone. She does.. And finally I get a PARTIAL REFUND. Are you kidding me!! This place is a dirty shithole, no customer service, and horrible food. I will never go back there.... I was better off drinking the little cups of their salsa.... I should have went to Tacos Tijuana, they blow this place out of the water. The stench of the fat tacos was burned into my nasal passages the entire day... I didn't even end up eating anything at all the entire day because I was so grossed out.... I might even still smell it... Had I of taken a bite of the fat taco it would have been the equivalent of eating a spoon full of Manteca..... #BARFFFFF

You knows it's going to be good when you walk in and are literally the only white people there. The entire menu is in Spanish, which luckily I know. For those that don't, be prepared with a translation app ;) We started with chips and guacamole. The guac was very tasty and fresh, but very heavy on the tomatoes. I'm not a huge tomato fan so I just picked them out. To eat, I had the quesadilla al pastor. OMG amazing! The meat was so flavorful and juicy, almost like an Asian flavor. Huge portion but I ate it ALL. My husband had the chicken enchilada plate with rice & beans and a pulled beef tostada. The enchiladas were very spicy - beware! Both items were absolutely delicious though and again, big portions. Our waitress was less than attentive to our needs. She was running the whole place solo and there were probably 6 families there and at least 3 walk-ins while we ate. I think it was because we were gringos, but honestly the food was so freaking good I didn't even care (hence the 5stars!) Can't wait to get back to Westminster to eat there again!!!
(5)Alicia M.
First time I went without my husband service was very different, I felt for the first time very out of place. I guess that's what I get for telling my guests how great the place was before we walked in
(3)Michael H.
It's about time! I moved to the neighborhood a few months ago from Arizona and I finally found a place that reminds me of home. This food is amazing, been back 5 times since I found it. The salsa bar is reason enough...
(5)Tiffany A.
Dare I call myself and my guy a "regular" here? YES YES YES!!! The staff is amazing, there are no words for the feeling you get when you see Mom behind the counter making everything from scratch. The bright yellow walls with the blasting music transports you into anouther world completely. I personally have a hard time with overly spicy food but they do it just right. I love the quesadillas with their homemade Sour Cream you can't go wrong. They have a huge salsa bar that the guy takes part in as I can not handle that hot stuff. I do really like that they have chopped onions out all the time. Never have we had a bad meal here or even a bad experiance with the staff. They work so very hard to offer their craft and it's an honor that they share it with us. Thank you Tacos Y Salsas
(5)Joseph H.
Dinner at Taco's y Salsas. Kids had Asada taco's and a plate of rice. The rice wasn't anything impressive and the asada was OK. Mama had the Chile Relleno plate. The beans were tasty, fresh and flavorful and the relleno was smothered in a green chile sauce, Mexican style chile sauce, not Denver style pork green chile. I had tacos...muchos tacos. The taco's were fat, on fresh tortillas and full of meat. There was some lil lady there, pressing out tortillas. God bless that lady, they were the bomb. Fresh made all the difference. The Deschada (?) was good, flavorful i dig it. The Al pastor was good, a bit salty for my liking, but delicious none the less. I dig it. The Adobada was good. its a spicy mother (shut your mouth). It was missing the pineapple I've become used to at other taceria's. Not my favorite of the 3, I was expecting carne off the honey comb but i got minced meat tossed in red sauce. I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers..but I wouldn't go out of my way for it either. Overall the place was pretty good. I think we'll be back. Word.
(4)Robert H.
The salsa was good
(2)Lucas I.
What? I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet. It is hands down my go-to place for Mexican food in Westy. I usually get the Machaca burrito - smothered of course. It is always outstanding. I love the employees too - they are always super friendly. The salsa bar is to die for! I load up on every last option (not like I'm going to dump them all on my burrito, but for later!). I probably look ridiculous hauling around 18 of those little containers, but I don't care, I'm a glutton for salsas. If they have the Fresas Y Leche (Strawberries & Cream), definitely give that a shot. I will certainly continue to return.

I would bellyflop on burning hot broken glass for good machaca. So, maybe you can imagine how happy I am after trying dozens of small Mexican restaurants that I finally found some. I've eaten here now a dozen times easily. For about 5 bucks I get a machaca burrito the size of a Yule Log. For 6 bucks I can get a machaca plate that's a take out container HALF full of meat. That's gotta be 5000 calories in there. Seriously, I couldn't finish it and I was full for the entire day. The place is clean, and the Mexican "umpa" music is so loud you need to speak up to order. It's also fashionable painted in lemon yellow too. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE!!! One more thing I love is the salsa cart is very clean and well stocked. It's easily the cleaned, neatest one I've seen hands down.

I don't know what happened here. I really have no idea. I read all these reviews and they were all super positive. My girlfriend and I went and I was not impressed. The food was decent, but nothing spectacular. She got chicken flautas and I ordered the asada quesadilla. Neither of us were wowed. The waitress gal wasn't super helpful or friendly either. The restaurant was dirty and while I like dives, disappointing on the whole. There's divey and then there's dirty and this crossed into dirty. I did like the salsa bar, but we only got 1 basket of chips. The waitress came over once but that was it. This place may be a hybrid waitstaff/counter service, I'm not sure. No one else was going to counter asking for anything. I'm going to come back here again, probably by myself because the lady wasn't impressed, and give it another go. I have high hopes on my return visit and am crossing my fingers that I'll be able to raise the score on this review.

My friend has been telling me about tacos y salsas for about 3 years now and have never gone till last weekend. This location is about 200 yards from my grandparents house so it is very convenient. First off, the menu is in spanish which is no problem for me but to others it might be confusing. They place is VERY clean inside and the employees were super friendly. We ordered 11 carnitas tacos, 2 pastor and a side of rice and beans for 4 people (carryout). The salsa bar is probably the best I have seen/tasted and was kept clean unlike some places. We got home and realized they shorted us 3 tacos which kind of sucked but we were starving so ate what we had. The tacos were some of the best I have ever had. They were huge too, usually I get 3 tacos from most places and they dont fill me up. I got 1 pastor and 1 carnitas down and attempted another pastor but could only eat about half. The rice and beans werent horrible but not excellent, could take or leave them. All in all I will be back many times in fact I am craving it right now. I would also like to try one of their tortas. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is the fact that they shorted our order.

This is a new location for Tacos y Salsas I believe and its a very clean one at that. Service was prompt and the food was on the grill in no time. The salsa bar was small but had plenty of different salsas, I counted 11, to choose very along with the usual garnishes, cilantro, onions, etc. We got our food and man 'o man, there was alot! The torta was huge and had all the good fixings, and tons of meat! I had to eat it with a fork and knife. The tacos were great as well, served plain with no garnishes but overflowin with meat, tasty delisious meat. The pollo was moist and very flovorful. The beef and pork where good as well, but the chicken stood out for them all. This shop is, as I would call it, open late, "kinda" their open till 1am on the weekdays and 2 on the weekends. so not too bad hours.

After my first trip to Tacos Y Salsa I've been back numerous times. I've tried every taco on the menu now and I have to say the tripe is pretty tasty. But the pollo and carneceria are by far the two best. Both are pulled meats cooked on the flat top grill. They are so succulent and juicy yet have a little crisp to the outside of them. I'm a fan of quesadillas and they do them up plain but right. Cheese and your choice of meat. Served up with some guac and sour cream then it's up to you for salsa selection. The gorditas are a bit greasy for my taste but once again they use those meats muy excellente. ** Now I don't know why it took me multiple trips to realize what I was witnessing but they are making their own tortillas fresh throughout the day at Tacos & Salsa. That is always a killer bonus in my book. I may be the only gringo virtually every time I head in for some grub but I don't mind and the staff enjoys seeing what I'll try from the menu next.

Wasn't as great as I expected, but I was definitely diggin the choices of salsas available!

First visit and it blew us away. Lots of meat and then doctor it all up exactly how you like it at the salsa bar. The $1.70 tacos are loaded down with meat. Beats the crap out of Taco Bell for almost the same price. We tried the pollo tacos and carnitas tacos and pollo quesadilla ($4.60 with refried beans, guacamole, and sour cream) . Everything was amazing. We will definitely be back to try more! Wish they served beer though...

Outstanding food.

This is nothing like the tacos y salsas i am used to going. Perhaps the place is nicer, but the service is nothing alike. These people made me feel guilty about eating here. The workers seem mad, and don't really wear a smile. I'll give them another try in the future. But for now all I can say is go to the one on 9103 e Colfax ave.

If you are looking for great Mexican food at a Great price, then look no further this is the place. I would highly recommend this place, especially the Carne Asada tacos which are made on fresh hand made corn tortillas and go excellent with some tasty Orchata!

Food was good. Can't say the same for the customer service. Maybe the server was having a bad night, maybe not, but since my man and I aren't fluent in Spanish, we needed a little extra time with the menu. Sorry we aren't as fast as the regulars. And for shame about not telling us about the salsa bar, we were half way through our meal before we found it. Nice little restaurant with better food than the Taco Bell down the street. We'll be back to give you a second try.

Tacos Al Pastor They have Pineapple those are the best and very reasonable price! Love this place I get tacos to go almost every week
(5)Demitri R.
The prices are reasonable. Vast menu from Tortas to burritos to tacos and everything in between. They dont serve alcohol here or have fountain drinks its all in bottles besides the Fresca drinks. Friendly servers. Nice flat screen tv. The desserts look delectable. I ordered a Smothered Carne Asada burrito. Nice chunks of steak. The beans were fresh. The cheese was all gooey. Shredded cheese on top that slowly melted as you ate it. Only thing it was missing was guacamole and sour cream. I hope this place is here for years to come.

I'm briefly visiting Denver and on the recommendation of a stranger, I stopped in to sample Tacos Y Salsas. This gringo, hailing from Austin, Tx (taco capital ?) was impressed with the spicy, tender meat. Al Pastor and carne were served up very quickly and was delicious! I'

We were in this neck of the woods today visiting Rancho Liborio and decided to give T & S a chance. I am SO glad we made the drive across town! I pretty much knew it was going to be good when we walked in and noticed that we were the only non-Hispanic people in the restaurant. My brother and I each ordered 3 tacos and a Mexi-Coke. I had the al pastor, asado, and barbacoa. My bro got asado, barbacoa and carnitas. He liked all of them but thought the carnitas was a little dry. My hands-down favorite was the asado. It was crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked and seasoned. I believe in lime and some cilantro on my tacos, so that's how I had them. The tangyness of the lime went really well with the flavor of the meats. I also was feeling adventurous and decided to order a lengua taco (tongue). Not something I would order again. Some of the pieces were soft and stringy, while others were fatty and chewy. I couldn't stop dissecting my taco to look at the meat (what are all those little white circles?!?). I couldn't make it through the whole thing. Loved the salsa cart, too! Tried all of them. I'm not a pansyass Gringa where spice is concerned, but I definitely found the salsas to be pretty spicy. Will definitely go back with the husband this time. For $1.55/taco, it's certainly an awesome deal!

On a last minute quest for finding some authentic tacos, my boyfriend and I stumbled on this place before turning around. I was relieved when I smelt the heavenly scent of carne asada. Authentic - carne asada! We sat ourselves as I quickly scammed the menu. I didn't care about tortas, or burritos, or plates... just give me some cheap tacos that allowed me to eat them in an efficient manner. My mouth started watering when I glanced at people's food arriving at the table. I ran for the salsa bar and grabbed all the cilantro, onions, and lemon slices my little hands could get a hold of (love love love it!). When the food arrived, I observed it - and yes it looked edible, threw all the extra crap that makes anything taste good on top, then stuffed it in my mouth. Yes... definitely was edible. Aside from the major portions of meat that my flour tortillas could hold, the carne asada and al pastor tacos were filling. My boyfriend literally had to roll himself out of the restaurant. For Denver, this place is decent, do-able, and will continue to have my business in the future!

I guess I'll jump on the bandwagon and let everyone know this place is AWESOME!!! They have great flavorful tacos that are full of meat and CHEAP!!! If I could notate half a dollar sign below I would. CHEAP!!! I ordered ten assorted tacos for myself and my wife. Carne Asada - Delicious, Carnitas - Awesome, Barbacoa - Wonderful, Tripa - Excellent, Chicharon - Glorious, and Lengua - Perfect, My wife had to go to Home Depot to buy a wheel barrel to get me outta there after i stuffed myself with their mondo tacos. They have a good salsa bar as well. I would give five stars but they do not have a fountain drink set up which was a disappointment to my wife. The do have Jarritos and Cane Sugar Coke in bottles though.

Pretty good, you get a lot of food for your money.. and a whole lot of salsas to choose from.. not the best i've had but they'll do.. the best tacos i've had are still from the streets of old Mexico...

Best chili relano in years, best since moving to Colorado 12 years ago.

Damn fine tacos... Some of the better I've had in the area. Unfortunately no beer at this location but the salsa bar makes up for it. Definitely get the carnitas

Food was good, as always but they lack service really bad! Tacos, steak, menudo all of it really good and fair pricing.

Finally, I tried Tacos Y Salsas. I am so glad I did! I went with my husband and as usual, we ordered a lot of food to get a fair sampling. Three tacos (chicken, carne asada and pork) and also a gordita. The gordita is a type of sandwich and was HUGE and also very tasty. The tacos were also delicious and we were happy to see that they do not skimp on the filling. My favorite was the chicken, though the carne asada was a close second. Best of all, everything was super affordable! Tacos Y Salsas has a full salsa bar with lots of goodies. We loaded up and also asked for sour cream, which they provided in generous amounts. The waitstaff was extremely helpful and polite and the entire experience was a good -- and delicious one. So good! We will definitely be back. Like, maybe even today.

Man, I am having some bad luck lately with the Mexican restaurants I am picking. I went to Tacos y Salsas around 3pm, I had the al Pastor, and it was awful. Perhaps going at an off hour is a bad idea? With all of the great reviews this place has I probably need to return to give them a second chance. What I ate this afternoon was closer to unseasoned rubber bands than a delicious al Pastor. The three-salsas i got at the bar were pretty good.
