!!!!!Overhyped and Underwhelming – Don’t Be Fooled by the 4.9 Stars!!!!
We came to Sr. De Los Tacos because of its glowing 4.9-star rating—but left wondering how on earth it earned that. Our experience was frustrating, disappointing, and honestly felt like a waste of time and money.
We walked in genuinely excited—craving tacos and hoping for something that reminded us of home. At first, we were acknowledged, but that’s where any form of service ended. Despite being the only customers there, we were essentially ignored. No one followed up, and we had to call the waitress over just to continue ordering. That indifference set the tone.
When we casually mentioned the tacos seemed overpriced, we got no response—no effort to explain, empathize, or recommend alternatives. Shortly after, our original waitress disappeared and passed us off to another, who barely interacted and only forced out a smile once at the table. It felt like we were inconveniencing them just by being there.
We had considered ordering more food, but no one ever came back to check on us—and honestly, we were too disappointed to keep going.
As for the food:
The tacos were $9 to $15!. You’re far better off going to The Taco Stand in Wynwood, where the tacos are actually flavorful and feel authentic. This place just didn’t deliver. The esquite was clearly made from canned corn, with all the toppings dumped on top. No mixing, no care—just a mess waiting to happen. We ordered a burrito bowl for our baby, and while the portion was decent, the quality was awful. The chicken was dry, the beans tasted straight from a can, and the cheese was that bland, bagged variety. We ended up skipping our own meals, too let down to even try more. We did order margaritas, which were the only decent thing we had—but even those were a hassle. They were part of a special, yet the waitress never mentioned them and clearly didn’t want to make any effort to upsell or share what the restaurant had to offer.
Bottom line: This place felt more like a gimmick than a genuine taco spot. The food was overpriced and underwhelming, and the service was some of the worst we’ve had—especially considering how empty the place was. If you go, don’t expect authenticity, flavor, or even decent hospitality. And if you're looking for value, skip the tacos and maybe try a burrito or bowl—but don’t expect quality.
Branding Confusion: One more thing—what’s up with the Mexican-themed figure in Colombian flag colors? That just felt off and made the place seem even more like a gimmick rather than something built with authenticity or cultural respect in mind.
A 4.9-star rating doesn’t mean anything when the experience...

Read moreI’ve had my fair share of dining experiences, but this one stands out in all the wrong ways. From the moment we sat down, it was clear that service was going to be an issue. For the entire hour and a half we were there, our server, Carrero, barely paid us any attention. We ordered food right away and were served fairly quickly—no issues there. However, we ordered drinks that never came, not during our meal, not even as we were getting ready to leave. So, we essentially had to eat our meal without drinks, which felt rushed and uncomfortable.
Adding to the disappointment, we felt pushed to make our food order right away, only to be essentially forgotten after that. For a place that seemed eager for us to order and eat quickly, you’d think they would at least bring out everything we asked for. The food was average at best—nothing worth the hassle. There are definitely better taco places out there that won’t leave you thirsty or feeling rushed.
Even after I specifically told the waitress that we’d each be paying for our own items, she still put everything on the same bill. This seemed like a tactic to automatically add that 18% gratuity since our total went over $50. Don’t be surprised if drinks that were never brought show up on your bill, and be prepared to pay $2 for water.
Finally, don’t expect any basics like chips or water to start—they don’t bring them, and, apparently, drinks are optional here. If you’re okay with a rushed, thirsty experience with unnecessary charges, go for it. Otherwise, find another spot that values your time, money, and dining experience.
Overall my experience in the Doral location was not good to say the least.
If I could give this place 0 stars I would, giving it a one is too generous. Save your money, there’s better...
