The bistek tacos were the same, the meat was over cooked for my liking. My son wanted quesadillas with fajita but the problem was the yellow tortilla again and the overcooked fajita. The only thing that I didn’t mind was the baked potato.
Let’s start with the tortillas. Maybe I’m spoiled because I’m used to going to real taquerias that actually make their tortillas fresh. You know, warm homemade corn tortillas or soft flour tortillas made in-house. But here? Straight up store-bought flour tortillas and store-bought corn tortillas. Going to a taco place and getting grocery store tortillas is wild to me. The tortilla is literally the foundation of the taco, and when that part is lazy, the whole experience just feels off.
Then the beans. Same story. At most taquerias you expect house-made beans that taste like they were cooked in a pot in the back with real flavor. These tasted like basic canned beans that were just heated up. No depth, no homemade taste, nothing special.
At that point I was honestly thinking I could’ve gone to Taco Bell and probably had a more satisfying meal.
And to top it off, when you walk into the place there’s this super loud, high-pitched chime on the door that basically blasts your ears every time someone walks in or out. It’s so loud it actually makes the whole place feel chaotic. Every few seconds you hear this piercing ding that makes you jump.
For a place that calls itself a taqueria, not making fresh tortillas and serving canned beans is already disappointing. Add the ear-blasting door chime on top of it and the whole experience just felt frustrating.
Overall: extremely disappointing.
Edit to add: the restroom was clean
We have the papa, tacos, quesadillas, and beans. They were all great, and we will definitely be going back.
I love tacos de trompo, and most recently, my go-to place on 83 began serving them a little on the greasy side. Not at 501. They were perfect. The pineapple was well-balanced. The serving of my papa was fitting for the dish. Overall, my dish was amazing. 501 served up some of the best tacos de trompo I’ve had.
My wife, this time around, chose the Hamburguesa Mexicana. This burger was no joke. Well-served, rich flavor, and no 1/4 lb patty or less. It was closer to 1/2 lb, maybe a little more than 1/2 lb. She allowed me to take a few bites, and it was oh so good. The fries were served hot and crispy. Definitely a well-served dish. My son’s gringas were well-served and tasted great. No sides to this dish. He did, however, only eat half. 🙂
The restaurant’s overall cleanliness is superb. Shiny floors, clean tables, and well-lit. The mood overall feels positive. The restaurant staff is attentive and well-mannered. Bathrooms are just as clean.
I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for some good hamburguesas and some great-tasting tacos de trompo. Do not pass this up!
The burger was pretty good, it was very filling the meat was missing something a bit of seasoning,I would recommend adding grilled spiced onions to it for extra flavor, I like that they give you a jalapeño wrapped in grilled cheese.
The burger comes with french fries and they were delicious, hot and crispy made fresh to order.
They serve you chips with salsa and charro beans while you wait.
Overall great place for food with plenty of options, I will return in the future and try more things.
