El Tio Taqueria: Reviews & Ratings
Great tacos and Gordita's. I was referred by a friend to check this place out and it was a good authentic type of Mexican.
Excellent though there's no tamales. They stopped making them. Very clean. Salsa is great and has a slight sting. Chicken quesadilla was delish, as were the steak tacos.
My favorite place to get authentic tacos!! I eat here almost every week for lunch bc it's close to campus!!
the best mexican food in the state of louisiana, as someone not of the state, it has restored my faith in god and Louisianan taste
El Tío Taqueria had delicious and authentic food. Quick service too!! I will definitely be back again!
THE best!!!!! Tacos in BR!!!! Absolutely love it!!! I think it has good prices for the quality! They give radish and sauce that is delish! I have recommended it to everyone I know. The service is fast, I usually order to go but I have my order in less then 10 minutes.
I always drive past this place but finally had the time to go in a try their food. I had the gorditas. Although it typically comes with three, I asked for two and that was more than enough (almost struggled to finish, haha). They were pretty good. Wish I had more sauce to diversify the flavor though. My friend (who's Hispanic) had the tacos and she says they're some of the best tacos she's had in BR - so if you're on that search, definitely check this place out. I'm excited to return in the future and try out more of their menu and their tacos!
Definite hole-in-the-wall type of place. I rarely dine in and usually do take out maybe once a month. The tacos are $2-3 each and oh so flavorful. They give you a grilled onion and jalapeno on the side along with radish and the green sauce. I am also a big fan of the chorizo gordita. I think this is the best tacos in BR, for sure. The service is quick and the food is cheap. Go support them!
After coming here the second time, I got a way better experience. The service improved, and the food that I got was all delicious. I may not have gotten the right thing the last time that I was here. From the last time that I was here, the waitress and also cashier was the same person. This did not change. However, there was a second person that came by to help us refill on water and help bring food to the table. My friends and I sat down and got our food relatively quickly after ordering it. The waitress gave us chips and dip and kept supplying it if we requested it. She was a really great waitress. She also filled up our waters when we were running low. She was really helpful and provided us with exceptional service. The food that I got was amazing. I posted a few photos, but the beef burrito and the beef taco were both really tasty. The beef burrito was quite big and had a lot of stuffing in it. It was hard for me to finish it after having the taco. It was well worth the price for me (7.99 for a burrito) and it tasted great as well! The taco was really great, too. The beef was juicy and seasoned well. The tacos were stuffed beyond what I could eat. I had to pickup the parts that fell and ate it afterwards. This place has improved so much since I came here the first time. Therefore for the taste of the food and the service that I received that day, I am bringing my review of this place up from a 3 to a 5 star. You definitely just have to get the right items to eat such as the taco, the gorditas, the tostadas, and the baleadas. I am definitely recommending this place for people to try.
