Love it. I eat there once a week. Usually get El Short Stack with grilled chicken and a side if corn.Great ambiance, friendly waiters, great with groups & the fried chicken tacos are delicious!.It's a great place for a laid back group meal.
The fried chicken in here is ridiculously amazing, I mean I have never seen anything and tasted anything like it before, the spices are just running wild.
Great Mexican Food – Great food and affordable prices.
Great atmosphere, great food and lots of fun!!!! – For over the past 2 years this place has become a Friday ritual for me, my best friend and her two kids (age 3 and 5). Starting early in the evening around 5:30 you are greeted by friendly staff and asked if you want to sit inside or on the patio. You are given little round wooden chips with numbers written on them, these are used on the top of the hour where they spin a wheel and if your number is called you win anything from a free bottle of beer to a t-shirt.....this is a... read more
Freakin good! – I have been here more than once and I always love it! The food is great and the prices are affordable. I would highly recommend people to come back!
GET CONNECTED WITH GOOD TIMES AT THE ORIGINAL EL TACO – Neighborhood is defined as the area or region around or near some place or thing; The Original El Taco identifies with “Neighborhood” in every way.

Excellent Mexican Food – i just visited The Original El Taco, and what can I say ... I loved it. My husband's family is Mexican and it is very hard to compete with their dishes, but this place was spot on. I've never been a fan of fish tacos but I tried them here and they were delicious. I'm dying to go back for more!
Just plain fun! – What else is there to say. The tacos are excellent, and completely different from what you might find around town. I've always found the food to be really consistent in terms of flavor. I've frequented this place and would make serious sacrifices for the fish taco. Outside of that, there's a lot of variety for such a small menu. I like that everything is a la carte so I can spend as much or as little as I like. The drinks? Well, housemade sour with fresh lime juice is always a plus for me. In addition, our ... read more
not the best place – The food here is so and so. Like the other reviews mentioned, they don't offer free salsa and tortillas when you walk in. The servers walk around and gossip even if there are customers, which takes the food longer to come out. Not the best Mexican joint, but it's passable when you need basic Mexican food
