The food is really good. My favorite is the burrito.
I informed them that when a beef burrito and 3 chicken burito were ordered, the beef burrito was marked "chicken" or "pollo"and the chicken burrito was marked "beef" or "asada" The person who wanted the beef had to end up eating chicken because someone who thought they were getting chicken ended up eating the beef burrito. There was no way to know what they were until it was eaten. I suggested they cut the burrito in half so that you can see that you got what you ordered, or, place a tooth pick in one to distinguish one from the other.
Apparently, they do not care because they do not cut the burrito in half so that you can see what is inside the burrito.
The next time I went, I asked that the burrito be cut in half. Apparently, they know nothing about "presentation" and "flare" in serving food. They unwrapped the burrito, cut through the middle, re-wrapped the burrito and enclosed it in the carry out!! Frustrating to say the least!!! Still no way to see what is in the burrito!
All they have to do is: After cooking and wrapping the burrito, take "kitchen" shears, cut through the center wrapped burrito. Cut through paper AND burrito. Then slightly turn the burrito as it is placed in the take out container or on the serving plate! That makes for an excellent "presentation" of a nicely wrapped jumbo burrito!!
You can eat half, share the other half, or take the other half home for a second meal because it is a jumbo burrito! You do not want to pick up a jumbo burrito! As you eat a jumbo burrito stuff start to fall out. But eating half of a jumbo burrito is nice and doable. Some people just do not get the concept of...
Read moreThe food at Fiesta Street Tacos is outstanding! Our tacos were served hot and fresh with a garnish of fresh radish, grilled onion, cucumber and lime wedges! I had a lengua taco and a barbacoa taco and my wife had two asada tacos. The corn tortilla will likely be overburdened by the volume of meat! Sadly, there are no chips available...there is some green and red salsa that is sitting out and makes me a little worried...also, the menu clearly lists prices for tacos, but I was charges over $4 for my lengua taco (I realaized this only after we left and were miles away!) And sodas run about $3. I recommend this establishment for the food, so you may wish to do a take out/take away order. This way you can avoid the limited and pricey sodas...you can have chips and salsa at home! Ask about pricing and check...
Read moreThe service was quick! The food was Hot and fresh. Probably the closest you’re gonna get to authentic taqueria food in Gulf Shores. The only reason I gave it a 3 star is because the burrito al pastor that I got was mostly filled with beans and rice. Barely any meat. They also only had two sauce bottles that you had to wait in line to use. My wife got a quesadilla de asada and it was literally only meat and cheese. Maybe we’re spoiled where we’re from but our quesadillas come with meat, cheese, cilantro, beans, rice and pico de gallo on the side.
The seating area outside was nice but there was no music or much of atmosphere.
Definitely would visit again though! Like I said, food was hot and fresh and the staff...
