Tacos El Prieto is the real deal. From the moment you walk up, the smell of freshly grilled meats hits you and sets the tone for what’s about to be an amazing meal. The tacos are packed with flavor—juicy, perfectly seasoned, and always served hot. The tortillas taste homemade, the salsas have just the right amount of kick, and the portion sizes are generous without skimping on quality.
What really sets them apart is the consistency. Every visit feels like they put real care into making the food right, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Prices are super fair for the quality you’re getting, which makes it easy to keep coming back.
If you’re craving authentic street-style tacos that hit the spot every single time, Tacos El Prieto is a must. Highly recommend trying the carne asada and al pastor—you won’t regret it!

This place is awesome! They always have music going and sets a good vibe. The tacos are so good, if you get adobada you have to try the pineapple hot sauce with it. One of the best combos ever
Update: the dude who used to work the register isn’t there anymore and now they are always blasting music so loud the lady couldn’t hear me while I was ordering and the quality seemed to have taken a hit as well. Kinda sucks because they just raised their prices too.

10/10 the food was BOMB and their tables outside were super cute too and the costumer service was phenomenal! Not only from the 2 pretty ladies who helped us (Pati y la Bonita guerita) but the cooks also were very helpful and let me sample their carne de lengua which was fire but honestly what truly hit was their tacos de tripas the tripas were nice and crunchy how I personally like them!! I tried their lengua, cabeza, and the tripas all FIRE!!

Great place to eat. Food portions were a tad small but maybe I shouldn’t eat so much lol. The main cook there was entertaining and spoke with us a bit. Very friendly and great place to eat at. lots of choices but of course I will chose the Torta and tacos.

What can I say about this place ! It’s AWESOME!’ So delicious . The meat is sooo good. I highly recommend the carne asada torta , tacos and quesadillas. Let’s not forget about the amazing service you get. They seriously make u feel like family. Mario and the cook Berenice! She will make sure your meat literally has no fat in it. You won’t be disappointed. Check them out !
