Amazing little family run location. Homemade tortillas, flavorful meat and absolutely amazing. 4 tacos and a water for under $13 and this homemade quality is a steal!

I went this morning and ordered 3 asada tacos. Portion size and price was great, tortillas were homemade and great, tacos were all around amazing!! They had a clean fully stocked salsa bar and the restaurant itself was very clean. All 3 staff members were very friendly and I loved that they were open so early. I work graveyard and there’s not many options for good Mexican tacos at 5am. I will definitely be stopping here every week for now on.

I ordered the chili relleno plate. They have a limited supply of chili rellenos so you have to call ahead to make sure you can order them. They are fresh and stuffed with fresh quest fresco cheese. Cooked in a flavorful red sauce. The rice and beans are probably some of the best iv had at any mexican food restaurant. Iv only ate here one time but I think that is going to change. I will for sure order the chili rellenos again. I forgotnto mention they make fresh homemade corn torillas too. Also sorry the pic i am adding is a pic after I took a few bites lol.

Food is so good they make the tacos with hand made tortillas and the horchata is the best!

I had take out dinner twice and also ordered the california burrito for lunch the next day ( visiting the National Parks) . The food was consistently flavorful and fresh. I made it around 8:30ish each night and had quick and friendly service.

I was looking for homemade Mexican. I found it.
Homemade Tortillas(more than 5 for sure), Rice on spot, Beans on spot. cooked right.
Horchata, was good too sweet for my liking.
Sitting is limited, Lots of in and out traffic, and Extremely busy behind the register. Restroom was lacking cleaning(locked to ensure customer use only). Friendly Employees.
There was a lot going on, so I was in and out in 30 minutes(including the wait for the meal as well as eating it).
Will definitely go back! Try something different.

Went here on a Tuesday evening. Wasn’t busy when I got there, but got busier when we left. Parking might be hard to find depending on foot traffic.
I ordered 5 tacos of cabeza, lengua, tripa, barbacoa and adobada along with a torta de milanesa and a kid’s quesadilla. The tortillas were handmade, which was a plus. However, the downside was it crumbled on the barbacoa and lengua taco, so you couldn’t fully experience the taste. All the meats were solid, except for the adobada. It had a cardboard flavor to it that was pretty off-putting. I tried a little bit of the torta de milanesa and that was really good. Horchata I purchased was typical of restaurant Horchata.
Overall, a very solid place. Some people tend to compare this place with Tacos El Rojo. Personally, they’re different styles, but in terms of the marinade and texture of meat I’ll take Tacos El Rojo. However, Melaque is solid and I’d definitely come back to try their breakfast and daily specials.

Had an asada and a tripas taco which were both delicious and great value. Good selection of salsas and clean store. Staff was friendly

I absolutely love Tacos Melaque! I would drive 3-4 times a week to eat here. The chille rellenos here on Thursday are so good but u gotta get them before 3pm cause they sellout fast. The fajitas and tacos are on point for sure. My goto every single time is chorizo breakfast burrito with sides of guac. The hand made tortillas are the best I’ve ever had also like you’re in Mexico it’s hard to find a business where the staff is committed to customer satisfaction and the kitchen is a well oiled assembly line.
Tacos Melaque checks the following
✅Price
✅Speed (5-10min food wait)
✅Taste
✅Customer Service
✅Prices (pre-covid prices)
✅Cleanliness

I had their pork ribs in red sauce (Friday special) served with freshly made fried rice and fried beans. The food tasted like a homemade meal. I now have a go-to place whenever I’m in town. Food was 5 stars, the service was cordial, quick, and the atmosphere was calm and organized despite the busy flow.
