Best asada, carnitas, and barbaqoa tacos in the city. I have been eating here and other places in the area for 15 years and Pacos is King.

Not big enough tacos. Too small for $5 but good

First time here at Paco's Tacos!!I'm from out of town!!Food is hot, fresh and delicious!! All three tacos were delicious, however if I had to choose my favorite it would be the Al pastor Taco!! I also had an horchata drink!! I highly recommend that also if you love sweet drinks!! Did not take pic however it was delicious too!! Please try this place!! Service is also great so that's cherry on top!! You will walk out happy!!! My standard of Mexican food just went up after coming here!! The art vibes mixed with good food, what more can you ask for!!

My tummy was upset due to The grease in my food. I would definitely recommend the chimichangas and fried ice cream. One time I even had both of them on the same plate and my tummy was so crazy style. Even my dog would not sit next to me due to the gas.

Los tacos carisimos (5.75 dolares), antes era un tacos grandes con mucha carne, pero ahora caros y mucho menos carnes, la verdad que quede decepcionado, y lleve 2 burritos y esa tortillas de harina esta HORRIBLE ya que saben a conservadores (deberían de cambiar de tortilla de harina, ya que la que usan para los burritos saben horriblr).

Carnitas, Asada, pastor. Get one of each, Bussin'. Grab a salsa from the fridge, find a spot to sit and enjoy. Return the bowl, wash your hands in the sink, don't spit in it dude. My buddy and I introduced pacos tacos to our friend from a different culture background. Now his family goes there on there own for the chicharron, wild. That's generational stuff. Anyway, it's good, at least I think so, but parking sucks so be careful on Archer.
