My faith in delivery has been renewed! Taqueria el Gordo tacos were so tasty, fresh and great portions - they loaded em up! - especially the SHRIMP TACO fresh fresh fresh! The QUESADILLA SHRIMP was packed with fresh shrimp and so good! I'll definitely be ordering from them again!

A LA CARTA Chile Relleno was so good! The FISH TACO was giant and not just a frozen fish stick like other restaurants, but made from a real fresh filet.

Everything is normally perfect here. I threw my ceviche out because it had an off putting odor and it tasted bland and slightly sour. Would not recommend getting this. Wasted a whole 10 dollars. The presentation was great.
This time they missed my crunchy shell taco. Those are always great. I got a chance to try the molida taco and thought it was excellent just slightly salty.
