Taqueria Jovenazo — Restaurant in North Lauderdale

This gringo went up in here at 11:55AM. First time coming here and came because of the "authentic" reviews. I was planning to meet my girlfriend whom is Mexican to bring her tacos. Well upon arrival there was a gang of 8 landscapers who had the same idea as me. Get there before the rush.

My girlfriend works 5 minutes from here and I was going to meet her for lunch at 12:15. I noticed only one person was working here. I began to get nervous I was going to miss her. Within 5 minutes my order was taken to go. Five minutes later the rest of the family came in and went straight to work without any messing around. My order was complete and I was out the door by 12:08 and arrived to her job by 12:13PM.

We had lunch and we were both very happy with the food. This isn't a Taco Bell this is some good tasting food authentic Mexican food. We spent our 30 minutes together and gave each other an onion kiss good bye.

Thank you and I will be back. I highly...

BEST TACOS THAT I HAVE EVER TASTED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!! Guys try this place you will not be sorry!!

Their tacos start at $2.00-2.75, but from 1 taco ( since they have a good amount of meat) you can actually get 2, tostadas, sopes and tamales run for about $3 -5.

You can get tacos al campechano( which is a mixture of meats like chorizo and chicharron), lengua (cow tongue) al pastor(meat with a slice of pinneappe) their selection is huge and all ingredients fresh, tostadas are crunchy and sopes delicious, this restaurant is authentic Mexican food serve and cooked by a Mexican family which started their businness right in their home and ended up with this restaurant which they bought with the name of molinas restaurant to be later change to Taqueria el jovenazo jr, you will not be sorry that you came here, this place is paradise on earth for tacos!!!!!

Be aware they do not accept credit cards...

The food is ok! I ordered 2 tacos and a burrito to go. So I'd have dinner and lunch and it's a lot of food. The 1st thing, the online menu prices are incorrect. The burritos are $10 not $8. No big deal. The burritos are supposed to come with lettuce, all it contained was rice beans and a about a tablespoon of carne asada and a teaspoon of lettuce. It was good, just not what I was expecting. It was also HUGE. The tacos came in one wrapping together, very messy and it took a minute to seperate.

When I picked up I asked for hot sauce and pico. They gave me 2 hot sauces and were charging $2 for a small container of pico. I declined.

It was good, but not worth all the hype. I may try again but do a sitdown order w/my family. It doesn't strike me as mexican food to be honest. It's good but going to authentic Mexican establishments, it is different and not as flavorful. Good but didn't...
