    The good: the free chips and salsa are some of the best I've had. The salsa has the perfect amount of spice and flavor and is tomatoey without having a watery consistency and the chips are super yummy. The quesadillas are amazing and my hubs and I both decided that is what we would get next time. Easy to get in and get out The not so good: The burritos have next to no flavor and are watery, loosely packed therefore totally fell apart on me. They are stingy with the chips and salsa. Why? Sad panda. Overall, a decent lunch spot. Find what you like and stick to it.

    This place is my favorite for guacamole. It's so fresh and the texture is perfect. It's not the goopy, uniform puree I've found in a lot of other places. They leave a few nice chunks of avocado just how I like it. Lots of cilantro, too. I ordered one asada taco and two lengua tacos. In terms of Mexican restaurants, guacamole and lengua tacos are pretty much how I decide whether or not to visit regularly because lengua is my favorite and I've seen them way overcooked or under-seasoned many times before. The steak was very good. Seasoned just right, tender enough with a little bit of chew. I'm not a huge fan of steak tacos generally, but I was curious because I know it's standard fare for most people. The lengua was one of the best I've had in a long time. It was meaty without being tough, and tender without basically being pudding. I've seen both happen, and I've also seen lengua chopped into such large cubes that it's near impossible to fold the tortilla. These tacos were perfect. I would like to add that Senor Taco's offers the option of cilantro/onion on your tacos as opposed to the iceberg lettuce/tomato we see at a lot of places that cater to the severely Americanized--something maybe one wouldn't expect from the lighthearted, kitschy name. I'm a total cilantro addict, so this bodes well for me. They also make the tortilla chips in-house, with each order! It's just salty, fatty, crunchy goodness. Perfect with the guacamole. The food is wonderful, but part of why I want to give them a five star rating is the customer service. The guy at the front is just sweet and wants you to leave happy. The first time I went there, there was a rush of customers and I could see that the kitchen was busy. I bought a carne al pastor dinner (also delicious!) with guacamole, but didn't see it in my bag when I got home. Normally I'm not the kind of person to call a restaurant for anything besides takeout, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't charged. The guy confirmed that I hadn't been (I did the math too), and promised a free order of guacamole next time I came in. Now, anyone with a brain should have the common sense and decency to think about what goes on in the kitchen on a daily basis when they order food and make complaints. I've worked in food service. I'm not at a restaurant anymore, but I'm still a pink collar worker and it sucks. When tickets pile up, stuff sometimes happens. The people making your food are not computers. It's how the staff handles the issue that matters. The fact that this guy was so polite to me on the phone (which was probably still during a lunch rush) and then promised to compensate for something I didn't even have to pay for? That was really nice of him. And then when I went in today, he remembered me and offered to give me the guacamole for free, or a drink or something. It was completely unnecessary because I would probably put up with a terrible attitude just to get my hands on their awesome food anyway, but it's definitely noteworthy. I don't know if he just works there or runs the place, but he's a legit dude. I will definitely be back for my next taco craving.

    The burritos are YUCK. Gristly, greasy, bad flavor. Meats are dirt quality. Other ingredients not balanced either. I threw mine away.

    Meh, it was ok. Tacos a little pricey for the size (I guess compared to the local small Mexican restaurants that I'm used to going to) but it tasted ok. Nothing spectacular.

  • Pachelbel C.

    My and my family's favorite authentic Mexican restaurant in the area. Tacos, steak chimichanga, salsa and nacho are always good.

    nobody was in this place the while time we were there, which should've served as a red flag. however, I was hungry and wanted to try out something local. I highly doubt I'll be back here, unless I'm literally starving. I came in a few weeks ago and ordered the eggs and ham. it was seriously disgusting. the eggs are supposed to be scrambled, which means cooked for a few minutes. they were runny and gross and not cooked at all. I ended up trying to pick out what was salvageable. the rice was halfway decent, but how do you screw up eggs?? the only thing that was good here, were the chips and salsa. however, they give you the most ridiculous serving of salsa. it was the equivalent of one tablespoon...what??why??how?? makes no sense...stay away...there are way too many other good choices out there, with better food and prices.

    One of my favorite Mexican spots. Great authentic food. I always get the steak burrito and it's amazing. Free chips and salsa when you dine in although they do to give you that many. Love this place.

  • Ken H.

    Tried the steak burrito for lunch today. Only cheese, onions, and cilantro were added. Unfortunately the meat used in the burrito was very bland and lacked even basic seasoning. Both green and red salsa were brought to my table. The green salsa was probably the least hot of any I've ever had. The red was ok. Overall a very disappointing meal. Somewhat surprising that such bland food would be served in a Mexican restaurant. I will not be back.

    It is what is it. Good, authentic Mexican food for about the same price as going to the Taco Bell in the next lot. There's nothing special to write about this divey restaurant located in a tiny strip mall other than the fact they give you homemade chips and salsa, free refills, when you dine in. You can also save yourself a dollar by ordering the small drink. They're kind enough to give you free refills of Coke products too!

    Senor's is the place to go for cheap Mexican food made by Mexicans. It's a smaller place but they do have a wait staff. I'm on a mission to find someone who can make carne asada fries like they have in Cali. I asked them to make it but they used nacho cheese. Not good. Even though they failed at that, I still come here for good cheap mexican food.

    My husband took me to "Señor's" on one of our first dates almost 9 years ago. We love this taqueria in the burbs for take-out or sit down. Everything from the pico and guac to steak tacos, tamales, and tostadas is delicious!

  • Dan S.

    I've known of this place since I can remember but hadn't stopped in until yesterday. Me & a buddy were in the area & wanted to get some real tacos, not Taco Bell style. I always forget about Senor Tacos since it's such a small unassuming place, which are always the best for great tacos. The dining area was recently renovated & had a nice homey feeling. Both of the guys behind the counter were real nice, I could tell my food would be made correctly just based on how they took the order. Our tacos were brought to our table along with complimentary chips & salsa within 5 mins of sitting down. There were a couple flat screens that both had the nba game of the day playing which was a nice touch. They had music playing when we walked in & ordered, but they put the audio for the basketball game on after we sat down & were watching for a bit, awesome! The tacos were delicious, I'll definitely be back to try some of their other stuff.

    I've been avoiding this place for at least 6 years, as the food was so meh. Burritos filled primarily with lettuce, food like Chevy's: Americanized and bland. The first indicator of a bad Mexican restaurant is the default presence of lettuce on the tacos. Anyway, I was in the neighborhood and chose to take a flyer on Señor Tacos today. Called ahead for 3 chicken tacos, cilantro and onion. Guy says 5-10 minutes. I get there 10 minutes later and they hadn't made it yet, despite only about 5 people inside. No biggie. I'll watch some NBA talk while I wait. Paid the surprising $7.50ish and went to chow. Sure enough, 3 chicken tacos with lettuce, tomato, and cheese, and two very bland salsas. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Here's a thought: if you operate a Mexican restaurant, make the tacos Mexican-style, and only drop a salad on top if the customer asks for it. Bam! If you're just hungry, do as I will certainly do and stick with the taco special at Los Laureles. Huge, hot grilled tacos and a cola for a full buck less than this suburban shack. And please, please call ahead. The locals jam that place at lunchtime.

    Great little Mexican Restaurant tucked into a small strip mall. The prices aren't bad and the food is very good. My boyfriend and I like to go there and get their steak tacos.

    Ordered 2 steak tacos. Steak was grissly and lacked much flavor. People are very nice there. I will give them another go some day.

  • Jenny V.

    I don't go here as much as I did in HS but I would always get a chicken burrito and it never fails, you get complementary chips and salsa if you dine in, the chips are deep fried so they're nice and crispy they are pretty addicting! If you're in the area and want some Mexican food don't go to taco bell go to señors!

    I have not been to this place in about 6 years, even though I lived right down the street. I got a coupon in the mail and thought what the heck, lets try it again. Well let me tell you, this place is awesome. Cheap food, great meat and produce. You can taste the freshness in the meat on the steak burrito as it dissolves in your mouth. The marinades they use give everything a great flavor, that will have my fiance and I definitely coming back for more. If you are in the neighborhood and looking for a great cantina to have dinner and a cocktail, this is definitely the place to check out!

    I was not happy with my experience here. A friend recommended this place, but I was not impressed. It was empty when I went there and the staff seemed annoyed to have a customer in the store. I would be willing to forgive poor service if the food was outstanding, but when I got home, I bit into a chunk of chicken bone in my taco, which I think was dark meat. The Taco Bell next door has better food.

    Great, affordable Mexican -- in our regular rotation. Recommend: avocado tostadas, cheese enchilladas, and all of the tortas are excellent. The salsa verde is outstanding!

    Senors is the place to go for quick and delicious Mexican food in the area. I try many of the items off the menu. They have a typical Mexican restaurant menu, with tacos, burritos, enchiladas, etc. I like to get the enchilada dinner which comes with three enchiladas (beef, chicken, cheese) Mexican rice, lettuce, and sour cream. The enchiladas are very good, I have had better though. If you eat there you also get complimentary chips and salsa which are delicious! It is a nice Mexican restaurant, that gives you the Mexican feel with the interior of the restaurant. Also the prices are fair for what you receive.

  • Rebecca S.

    We love Señor Tacos! Definitely the place to go for some quick, great Mexican food. I love their tacos Mexican style with the onions, cilantro and lime. I've had the steak, chicken, and ground beef and have a hard time deciding which one is better. My boyfriend loves the torta sandwich, with breaded steak. When you eat inside, they give you chips and salsa at your table. The tortilla chips are unreal, very crunchy and not overly seasoned like some places. The salsa is pretty good as well. Great little neighborhood "dive" jem.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
