Tacos El Gordo is an absolute gem for taco enthusiasts. Their offerings are consistently top-notch, with a particular spotlight on the Carne Asada, Lengua, and Adobada tacos.

The Carne Asada tacos are a revelation. The beef is perfectly grilled, juicy, and packed with flavor. Each bite offers a delicious blend of smoky, charred goodness and tender meat, complemented by fresh cilantro and onions. The salsa adds just the right amount of heat without overwhelming the rich beef flavor.

The Lengua tacos are a standout as well. Cooked to perfection, the lengua is tender and melts in your mouth. The texture is smooth, and the taste is subtly beefy, enhanced by the fresh toppings and a squeeze of lime. It's a delightful experience for those willing to try something a bit different.

Lastly, the Adobada tacos are a must-try. The pork is marinated in a rich, flavorful adobo sauce that strikes a perfect balance between spicy and savory. The meat is tender and succulent, bursting with a robust, slightly tangy flavor that pairs wonderfully with the fresh toppings and warm, soft tortillas.

Tacos El Gordo excels in delivering authentic, flavorful tacos that leave a lasting impression. The quality of their ingredients and the skillful preparation make every visit a treat. Highly recommended for...

Well... I tried to be private about this by calling the store... But since the lady hung up on me here we go...

I normally frequent the losee/Cheyenne location but I recently moved right off Charleston Blvd so I came to this location on 3/3/2023 approx 7:50 pm.

I ordered one taco, one tostada, and a small adobada fry. I live less than 5 minutes away so when I got home of course I'm about to smash this food because it's one of my favorite places...

Sorry to say, there was VERY LONG BLACK HAIR in my fries! (I have short curly hair) I called the store and they didn't answer the first few calls. I didn't want to go back up there because it's Friday, they are busy as ever and I don't want to make a scene letting them know the issue in front of their many customers.

I waited a few minutes and called back and a lady answered at 8:18 pm.. I began telling her I was just there and I told her my order... Soon as I mention there was hair in my food she hung up.

Smh. Terrible... Terrible customer service. Will never go here again. And thank you to the lady in the drive thru who had an amazing personality. She is the reason I gave 3 stars for service...
