So, this used to be my favorite place to get breakfast tacos, but since I now live 25 miles away from them, I get excited when I get the chance to eat here. However, the experience we had today made it to where I will never eat there again. We ordered 6 tacos, 2 for each of us. 2 of those were with no with no egg since I have a sensitivity. 2 were with bacon, which we asked to be extra crispy. Here’s what we got; 3 tacos with sausage, egg, potato, and bean, 2 bacon, potato, bean. The bacon being pretty much next to raw. My 14 yr old went in and ordered these for us, reading off of a teaxt I sent her. We get home, see the issue with the order so my daughter calls them. She is having a difficult time getting the lady on the phone to understand her so I get on the phone as they get the manager. I explain to the manager what happened and she asked me to bring the tacos back! I tel her I can’t because we live 25 miles away. She said that in order for her to issue me a credit she would need to check them! I told her that that would be a health violation. And then this woman had the audacity to ask me if I was the one ordered them. Not that it matters, but no, I did not. She then asked me how do I know she ordered right? BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER CAN READ! She basically told me that my daughter couldn’t read and that there was nothing she could do! I VOW to NEVER...

One of my favorite breakfast taco destinations. Not only do they have great prices and amazing food but the customer service is A++++++++++++++.

Their breakfast tacos are enormous and they do not sacrifice quality to do this - not even for the outrageously low prices they offer. The portions are super huge, one taco is probably enough for most people.

Check out the daily specials -the philly cheese steak is better than most more expensive places and the portions of meat and cheese on their delicious fresh bread is hard to surpass anywhere - and most other places charge twice as much. Hit them up on a Friday for lunch and your are in for a treat.

I ordered the Migas breakfast taco this time and added Chorizo and Bacon - because I am living a high protein kind of life right now. They put a crazy amount of cheese on this too.

Another thing that is different here - the salsas are super good. They offer now both red and green and its not all about the heat. Sure, there is a BIT of kick to it but there is flavor that pops in your mouth and hits all of your senses. The newest salsa, verde, is the best - got to try this!

If you have not tried this place - go NOW - or as soon as they open, you have got to...

I have been coming to Ken's Tacos for a very long time. Like, since high school. In that time that that I have gone…at least 10 times a year for my own eating and maybe 20 times each year for the office…the food has been great. Always prepared fresh. Always done with the right ingredients. Always done with a bit of happiness. The ladys know me there from my work uniform (they probably know lots of “regular work people”). I have even taken several co-workers that have never heard of Ken’s Tacos. Most have loved the food. A few have hated it for various reasons. All agree that the food quality is consistent. Most state that they love the quality and taste of the food. I agree with many others that have visited Ken’s. Their building hasn’t really changed much since I started going there (14+ years now). The parking lot itself in front of the building has been repaved. Other than that, it is still a good hole in the wall place. A side note, the prices have gone up a bit from my high school days but currently at $2.75 a taco (more like a burrito), the price increase is...

Sad that I have to write this review after years of coming to this establishment. I bought 2 bacon egg and cheese and 2 chorizo and egg. Drove all the way from Georgetown to get home and my girlfriend finds hair in her taco. I called the establishment spoke to Lydia who was very rude and ugly. I asked to speak with the manager she said she is the manager. I explained to her what was going on she advised for me to bring the taco back in order to get credit. I explained to her I live in Georgetown and she said whatever I need to bring the taco back in order to get credit. I explained I’m just gonna go ahead and post a review her response was you can do whatever and hung up on me.

I'm ambiguous about writing this review but I will have to because it's one of my favorite places. The air conditioning is not that good and sometimes the dining room is not as clean as it could be but one becomes completely oblivious to these things as soon as they see the plate of fish tacos in front of them. These are absolutely the best fish tacos I've had anywhere in the US and when you make it into a taco plate it's even better. I really haven't tried anything else on the menu so I'll have to let others speak of those items. But I'm here to tell you the fish tacos are pretty darn good. I'll suggest trying both the red and the green sauce.

I went to Ken’s Tacos for lunch. I decided to try their crispy tacos! They were OK. The meat didn’t really taste like ground meat, but it was good. It tasted like it had some chorizo in it or maybe it was the seasoning I’m not sure, but I know that they gave you plenty of meat and it was better than Taco Bell. I only ate one taco! I also purchased a Barbacoa soft taco with cilantro and it was delicious! I would definitely buy the Barbacoa taco again! It was so good! My husband and I come here on Saturdays for breakfast tacos occasionally and they are really good as well.
