Taco Norteno

Best tacos we’ve had since moving to orlando! The torta asada sandwich might be the best asada sandwich ive ever had

This place is amazing! The staff is very friendly. The food tastes delicious. Everything was fresh and prepared in a timely manner. The portion size was large. The restaurant was clean. The prices are similar to other Mexican restaurants. The salsa bar has a large variety to accommodate any tastebud. Especially a hot one! I will definitely be visiting Taco Norteno again real soon.

Love it! Very authentic food. I had the chorizo with carne, al pastor, and cow tongue tacos. I don't recommend the cow tongue. It tasted odd. The salsa station was great and very clean. Tortilla chips are self serving (dine in only). Highly recommend!

Learned about this place thru Instagram and I am a sucka for tacos so I had to go. Honestly have to say thank you to the Think about it the podcast for posting this because the tacos were great. The condiments bar had all the great taco toppings. Got the carne asada tacos and the pollo (chicken) tacos with corn tortillas and it did not disappoint. Also if your dinning in you get to have all you can eat chips and salsa. I highly recommend this place. Will be going again!

Taco Heaven!!! We are huge taco fans and love to try out new places. This place was suggested to us and we decided to eat lunch here today. The front order staff was friendly and helped us navigate the menu knowing it was our first time. The ambiance was full of culture and cozy with families enjoying their meals. The Chicken Tacos were mouth watering delicious and cooked to perfection. The salsa bar was great and full of options for toppings. They even give free chips and guacamole. Staff was attentive and catered to our needs. Its a cantina style so you have to ask for things you might need and they will get it for you. Overall, 5 stars are well deserved and we will return to this hidden gem. Highly recommended.

Wow! I think we found our new hole in the wall, family owned authentic Mexican restaurant. So authentic and good, full of flavors and I LOVE an unlimited salsa bar with lots of different salsas and escabeche (the pickled condiments). We will definitely be back !

the most authentic, charming, and friendly taco spot that i’ve found in orlando! love the attentive and helpful staff, the enormous salsa bar, and the outstanding food (with generous portions at even better prices). so happy this exists in a land of otherwise generic/trendy/hipster taco spots. (don’t get me wrong, i enjoy those too, but sometimes i just need food that reminds me of what i’d get at the taco trucks back home in so cal)

Fridays are taco traditions for my small group of friends. This joint did not disappoint. If you want authentic Mexican food with a heck of a good "fixin's bar" then check this place out. Free homemade chips and salsa with your order. Grab a beer, or two. Good food at a good price. Highly recommend!

We absolutely love this place! Authentic Mexican food. Salsa/toppings bar is probably one of my favorite things about this place, with so many hot sauces, cilantro, grilled and raw onions, sour cream, lettuce, jalapeños, and limes. Everyone is so friendly! We love to sit outside. The food is always so fresh and comes out super fast. One of our absolute favorite taco spots!

I was blown away by this experience! The authentic Mexican flavors are crave worthy, and the salsa bar offered an array of options to suit every taste. Not only were the prices great, but the cleanliness of the restaurant and the warm and friendly staff made me feel right at home. Taco Norteno is a must-visit. Five stars all the way!

Excellent authentic Mexican food. We tried the tacos and tostada and give five stars. The margaritas were good too. Highly recommended!

This is a must try! I tried over 6 different types of tacos and a smother enchilada and they were all fantastic. The salsa/toppings bar is where it's at though and really separates this place from others. The food came out hot and these are some of the most tasteful tacos I've had. I tried the Carne Asada, Chicken, Al Pastor, Pork, and Ground Beef. If I had to pick a favorite it surprised me but it was the pork. You could just tell it was slow roasted to perfection. Now on the salsa/toppings bar, WOW! Of course there's onions, peppers- jalepeno and green, and cilantro. What really makes this great is the salsa. I don't remember exactly but I think there was more than 7 different types and all spice levels. I loved each of them for different reasons. My favorite was the Aji Verde, perfect spice level and I also really enjoyed the Habanero. My wife preferred the guacamole sauce with green tomatillo salsa Trust me and try this place.

Wow! Cheap, authentic quick service Mexican food with a salsa bar. This Mexican restaurant has all of the things we look for - great food at a decent price, friendly service, and plenty of salsas to go around! Also, the portion sizes were so big. We really enjoyed the quick service set up to get the food ordered, and it was even better that the salsas and condiments were self-serve. They have happy hour and brunch specials throughout the week, too. Plenty of seating for the whole family. We will be back very soon.

Absolutely delicious and authentic taste, come hungry! Free tortilla chips included with a DIY sauce bar after purchase of food items. Plenty of parking with 3 outdoor tables (4 seats per round table).

Nice small place. Food was great and we will visit again. I had the #1 taco special and also chicken fajitas. Chicken was very good. The beans were delicious too.

I risked my life to come here and I would do it again. There I was: stuck at the pin store with my wife’s family contemplating my life choices when I decided to cross 6 lanes of busy Florida interstate instead of spending another minute looking at pins. This turned out to be the best choice as the tacos were cheap and delicious and the salsa bar was amazing. Would cross the street for this place again.

I was blown away at this place. I throughly enjoyed my food, I got the 10.99 2 tacos rice and bean special, and it came with a drink. The service was super quick. I left the place full, satisfied and happy to come back. I love the salsa/topping bar, choosing what you want and how much you want is such a small gesture yet goes a long way. I will be back.

Taco Noteno serves up some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. Every bite is packed with bold, authentic flavor—fresh tortillas, perfectly seasoned meats, and toppings that actually matter. The vibe is casual and fun, the staff are friendly, and the whole experience feels like real, no‑nonsense Mexican street food done right. If you’re craving tacos that hit every time, this place is a must‑try.

I'm from Monterrey city (Mexico), and I can tell this a good place to eat tacos, reminds me how those are made back home. Definitely recommend this place if you want authentic Mexican food. Price is good as well. I highly recommend barbacoa tacos.

Great spot! I got the steak sopes and they were delicious. We were greeted by friendly staff, we helped ourselves to some warm chips and salsa from their salsa bar which was yummy and waited only a few minutes before they brought out our order. I also tried my husband's steak torta and would recommend that as as well, great bread used. The prices were affordable as well which was a great bonus.
