Now I’ve eaten Mexican all across the city.
It is a Taco burrito house with a nice flashy paint job. They have no bathrooms for the customers. A big negative for me.
I had a truly disappointing experience at Taco Moro.

“Thank you so much — everything was absolutely delicious.”
Thank you so much — everything was absolutely delicious! I especially want to highlight the cleanliness 👍🏻. I only eat halal, and it means a lot to me that you provide us, as Muslims, with the opportunity to enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine in a halal version. That is truly valuable. The food literally melts in the mouth 🤤 — every dish was made with such care. This is my honest and heartfelt review. I will definitely be coming back again!

Great tacos! I ordered a skirt steak taco and a beef tongue taco. I loved that they serve halal meat here. There's a poster that explains what this means, and I love that the animals are slaughtered in an ethical manner. The tacos were delicious, and the service was amazing. I will definitely be back.

Can you see the portion size?? Insane😅 Like the place , small and cozy with good music. Food is good , I got the chicken taco and nachos to share with friend, and of course orange jarritos to drink . By the way, everything is halal there , so all Muslims are welcome here.
