“Last day on a trip and gotta say, besa mi taco made me wish I found this place sooner. Natalie is a great host and has amazing recommendations on what to order. The ribeye tacos are rad and the margarita hits. Enjoy”
“This is a kind of Taqueria, but with the size of a restaurant, the food is delicious, but it is also food that is usually served in a Taqueria. They also have a nice patio, which is open late spring and all summer. I have visited this place many times with my wife and family, and the people are very friendly, and the restaurant is nice-looking. Highly recommended”
“Food was excellent! I would eat here again! Great menu selection!”
“Good food, long wait in the drive thru sometimes. However, it should be expected as the food is freshly prepared. Prices are very reasonable considering the food quality. Nice place to go enjoy a family meal. Edit 8/17/24 - they now serve quesabirria tacos and they’re delicious and flavor packed.”
“Very inviting atmosphere for this casual restaurant where you order your food at the counter then either pick it up from the other side or someone brings it to you on a tray. Plenty of very comfortable seats and friendly service. The shredded chicken taco wasn't good but the pastor (pork) taco with onion and cilantro was SO delicious and tender. The cup of chicken tortilla soup was hearty and different...but so good! I'll be back next time I'm in the area!”
“Review written 02/16/2026. Ordered through Uber Eats a few days ago and the salsa was delicious and the guacamole was delicious. The chips were okay. The cheese quesadilla was ok, the cheese wasn’t melted. I highly recommend the guacamole and the spicy salsa. The queso was okay However I do not recommend the elote. I was only able to eat a few bites. The proportion of corn to mayo was way off.”
“Besa Mi Taco is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! Their food is always fresh; my tacos to go are the veggie and grilled shrimp but their potato and egg burrito is also amazing. Service is grt and place is very clean—-highly recommend it!”
