The menu looks pretty nice. But once you get your food and realize they forgot half of what supposed to be on a $5 taco your kind of over it

I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. Apathetic and slow. Took over 16 minutes to make 3 Quesadillas, only to find out that one hasn’t been made. So we’re 20+ mins in and still waiting for the third one to be prepared.

The food here is excellent! I eat here a lot since i work in the airport. I highly recommend the fried chicken taco (with no cilantro unless you love cilantro). Their nachos are really good too and come with queso. I did read some of the other reviews that mention them being slow and i can attest to this if you go there in between breakfast and lunch. I believe they are short employees so they can be a tad slow when they are short handed. But if you can wait-its worth it! The food tastes great and they are all really nice.

I was Looking for KOSHER/HALAL/VEGETARIAN/VEGAN/PESCATARIAN, this place has a few options. I ordered the vegan tacos $5 each, they must have prepared them in advance because the guacamole and pico de gallo was warm, the corn tortillas were soggy EW! ANDDDDD they made me wait for them lol You’re probably better off ordering the cheese quesadilla or nachos. The international terminal isn’t inclusive of speciality diets, better off going to McDonald’s and getting my favourite Fillet-O-Fish or bring a packed lunch. Not unless you want to spend $35 from the neighbouring restaurant on a salmon dinner, but I’d rather spend the money if the food is fresh! I hope I don’t get a tummy ache on the flight I couldn’t even take a picture of the tacos they were a sad sight, even the tacos were crying. Where’s the owner? The reviews on this place are so low, but I’m willing to give it another chance if the food is made fresh. Maybe the employees could smile a little? Everyone in the terminal is on vacation, a smile could make a difference!

How can you rate it. No food available! We stopped serving breakfast 3 minutes ago, was what we were told and lunch wouldn’t be served for an hour and a half. People this is an international airport people need to eat at almost any hour. Bring your own food. Your better off.

Terrible service. The staff was rude, walked up to order 40 minutes before they close and the tell us “we finna close at 10”. Don’t go here. Trash service. Trash food, made me sick.

Don’t waste your money the cashier and cook were clueless I ordered a breakfast burrito and it was an epic failure. After placing my order the cashier had to search for the cook who seemed unsure on how to make a breakfast burrito. After waiting the burrito was missing the eggs and severed cool. I took burrito back and he actually offer to make another but the cook as missing. Don’t waste your time or money.

Let’s start with we know it’s airport food. That being said, it should be edible. I had the Carne Asada chicken tacos and the ground beef Tacos and let’s say, not good at all. I was forced to eat the 1st of each becuase I was stuck in the airport and didn’t want to be further disappointed and waste money on anything else. I could only stomach a 1 bite of the 2nd taco of each before tossing them in the trash. Bland is an understatement with an odd after taste. I asked could they just put them in a bowl since I’m keto and didn’t want to tortillas and she said no. After I ordered she said we do have a Chipotle Bowl ‍♂️. Maybe put my taco ingredients in the …bowl.. instead of the tortilla, maybe . Thanks for being so helpful. As Arnold Schwarzenegger said in Terminator 2, Hasta LA Vista El Taco”Hasta la vista, baby”, I won’t be back. No bueno.

Similar to all other reviews, horrible service and food quality. Waited FOREVER in line, could easily miss a flight waiting just to order. Workers moving slow as molasses, not a care in the world for customers or flight times. The girl at the register seemed to be in training but trainer was absent half the time, leaving one person in the kitchen who was also doing other things besides cooking food. Ordered the fried chicken taco and spicy beef taco. The beef taco was literally ground beef with lettuce on a taco, no spice or sauce. I could get better food at Taco Bell. DO BETTER for customers traveling internationally who need to eat before a long flight. The chicken and waffle place next door was out of chicken, the hot dog place had a long line and was moving relatively quickly. Pei Wei had a long line and seemed to be having similar problems but at least they had two people in the kitchen. It wouldn’t be a big deal if they were short staffed and working hard, but nobody at El Taco was working with any sense of urgency for how many people were waiting.
