Daniel's Taco Shop — Restaurant in Stratmoor

I lived a block away for 2.5 years and would come here often. I really love the atmosphere, the staff and the food. I'm pretty sure it's family owned/ran and the (whom I assume is) manager is a very kind man, and I always feel welcomed like family when he's working. They have the best horchata of all the Mexican restaurants I've been to in town and I love their Carne asada burritos with added sour cream. Their tortillas are also amazing and taste homemade. Very flavorful and a good menu variety. My only complaint is the fried ice cream dessert is more whipped cream than fried ice cream, but the portion of ice cream is still ideal - just too much whipped cream = too much sugar before you even get to the ice cream part. The restaurant is maintained, and the food always tastes fresh. They have a parking lot, shared with the other businesses in the little strip building, restrooms and...

3 star because the food was actually good but service not so much. I called ahead of time and ordered 15 mini tacos w/ onion, cilantro on the side. When I got there I grabbed 2 drinks and when it was time to pay the total came out to $42. I asked how because when you do the math it's just under $30.

He was clearly upset and told her that because he put the onion & cilantro on the side. I let them know it didn't make sense to charge me more because those ingredients were put on the side vs on the tacos. Had I not asked for it to be separate I would've gotten charged regular price..... at the end of the day after explaining how it just didn't make sense they charged me the...

I had the Carnitas street tacos, they were great. It was late in the day and the meat seemed a little on the dry side, but very tasty regardless! My fiancé had a burrito that came with a side of beans, the burrito was giant, it was a footlong and mostly meat. We also had chips with salsa and beans with cheese to go with is a must, their orange colored hot sauce has some good kick compared to other places. I had a Horchata to drink and it was really good, but I’m a Horchata fanatic, I’ll take it any way I can get it. Overall the food was excellent. My only complaint is the semi dry Carnitas meat and the small serving of chips that comes with a side of chips’n’salsa. Compared to other Mexican joints in town this place is a 5 star down home good ole Mexican food place. ...
