Tacos Tijuana

Dont listen to Gary.
Hole in the wall? Sure. Delightful service? Definitely. Delicious street tacos? Absolutely. Cheap? For sure.
If I lived anywhere near here I’m sure I’d be back, but the good thing about Denver is there’s no shortage of delicious taco restaurants to fill you up quickly and inexpensively.

Tried this little hole in the wall I’ve driven by a million times. Owner very nice, place not so much. I orderd the Torta Milanesa… I’ve had better. My husband orderd the chicken tacos, he wasn’t impressed. The salsa though… the red Adobo, delicious! Not sure that I’d stop in again.

I got a bacterial infection in my colon from their chicken, it gave me a high fever, painful body aches and chills. I had to be brought to the E.R. the next day. I had only ate eggs and fruit at home before going there and it was the last meal I ate. I wouldn’t be surprised if this place failed a health inspection.

I have had stomach issues all morning. Are there late last night. Think got some bad pastor. The place is old and dirty. No air conditioning. I don’t think sanitation is a priority. The food wasn’t hot.

Tacos Tijuana has authentic tacos for very cheap. If you come on Tuesdays or Thursdays, then each taco costs only $.69. I think beef is a little more. I always get the shredded chicken tacos and have not tried anything else from the menu. Service has always been friendly and fast.
I bring all of my out of town guests here and highly recommend it for quick, cheap, and delicious tacos! Where else can you sit down and eat for less than $ 3?

In my quest to find the best taco places in Denver I was intrigued by this place and not disappointed. These are classic street tacos, they’re small, but filled with delicious meats and a simple topping of onions and cilantro. No frills or strange modern twists on tacos here. I decided to create my own taco sampler and got the pastor, cabeza, and carnitas. The pastor was delicious, perhaps just a tad greasy, but still wonderful. Cabeza was tender and something I’d love to order again. Nothing too special about the carnitas, but don’t be afraid to order it. Salsa bar was a nice touch. Nothing fancy about the place, but service was friendly and there’s lots of seating.

I finally felt like I was back in San Diego! Super dope $ 1 street tacos with a killer selection of meats. Ask for the tortilla chips. Salsa bar gets a thumbs up too!

Middle of the road. My bolillo was a bit stale and dry which took away form the flavor of the torta. The horchata was by far the best I’ve had in awhile. Points on for friendly service and great prices. The tacos were average to good. While there are better options in town, worth a stop if your in the area and looking for authentic antojitos.

Can’t beat the price on Tuesday and Thursday! Can’t believe I’ve lived a block away for this long without eating here…
The staff are nice. The restaurant isn’t frilly or fancy.

I wrote my review two years ago and it needs an update.
I loved the old cooks, don’t get me wrong, but it was inconsistent in taste.
The new ladies that work there are amazing. The taste is consistently good, if not delicious. Each time I go, it gets better and better. Very few of them speak English, but it makes people watching entertaining.
The pupusas are great, the enchiladas are AMAZING, basically, everything on the menu has improved. The price on the carne asada tacos was raised to $ 1.25, but the taste is much better than before.
I’ve seen google reviews that say this is dirty and smelly, but it’s not that gross. They fired the chick that doesn’t clean (and she always got our order wrong) and the smell, it’s just an old building with old pipes.
Best Mexican food in Denver, hands down.

.69 cent tacos on Tuesday and Thursday! How can you beat that? Plus the salsa bar is great. Inside can be messy at times but doesn’t really bother me.

Hole in the wall place. Friendly staff and yummy tacos.
$.99 Tuesday tacos.
Super friendly waitstaff.
Have some yummy horchata (sp) with that spicy marinated beef taco. The tongue is very tender and tastey. It’s my kids favorite.
My kids like this place A LOT.

Okay for the most part. 65 cent tacos each Tuesday that are really good. The horchata could use a little work though, as it seems to be a bit on the over sweetened side.

My girlfriend and I ventured out for taco Tuesday last night. Seems the rush ends around 6:45pm, we got there at 6:30. By the time we left just after 7 the parking lot was pretty much empty.
The big sign by the road says tacos are 55 cents, but they’ve increased the price to 65 cents. No biggie for me. 8 tacos and 2 drinks with tax was $ 17. You can get pastor (marinated pork), pollo (chicken) or carnitas for the sale price. The carnitas were our favorite! The pastor was delicious. The pollo was very tender but not as flavorful.
Not much seating inside. Two picnic benches outside.
Very friendly service, great drink selection (Jarritos!), food was made to order and worth the short wait.

OMG. Taco Tuesday’s or thursday’s are awesome. .55/​taco
Everyone of them was great, plus i couldn’t resist and had some non-​sale tacos. Delicious.
Oh and the Nacho Supreme, is huge! The picture should have a small baby or hand or something in it for scale. That alone woulda been a meal
it’s definitely a family run looking place, and if you’re in need of tijauna style ceramic crap, you can get it as well. But don’t let the looks fool ya.
AWESOME tacos!

So we just got 8 tacos with a bottle of water for under $ 8.
On Tues and Thurs they have $ 0.55 Carnitas, Pastor, and Pollo tacos. I also ordered one Lengua and one Carbon. Were they the best street tacos in the Metro? Probably not. Were they the best $ 0.55 tacos? Sure.
When I am looking for an inexpensive meal on a Tues/​Thurs, I will return.

been going here for street tacos lately, so far i’m digging it. Tacos are $ 0.99 each, and they’re $ 0.55 each on Tuesdays /​Thursdays. They have all the meats you’d expect; al pastor, lengua, cabeza, pollo… Fans of Taco Bell will think these tacos are small, but they’re very typical street tacos.
I get a few tacos (my fave are al pastor) and a side of rice & beans ($ 2 total) and a Mexican Coke (Coke in the bottle). pretty good little lunch for around $ 6.
There are pictures of the different plates (about 30 i think) on the wall so that helps. most of the menu is in spanish but the cashiers speak english as well. the building is intimidating but very cozy and comfy once you’re inside. not much seating, about ⁴⁄₅ booths.

Now what the hell happened to my sunglasses… they’re on my head? Flock me!
I could have sworn I had written a review for these guys at some point along the taco way but I guess I didn’t… is it on my head? err in my head? Doubt it! Well anyway I stopped by there this afternoon after coming from lunch in Aurora with some of the ol’ Unilocal crew and I guess I hadn’t eaten enough lettuce to satiate my hunger? Nah, I’m lying. I just wanted a farewell fling with this little nasty northsider. She’s supposedly going away soon and I had to see her one more time. Vaya con dios TT. veintiuno.

Who doesn’t love street tacos? And who doesn’t love paying under a buck for tacos? Especially when they are so good. And finally, who doesn’t love a salsa bar where you can get all the spiciness you need to taco that taco to the next level? No one I know, that’s for sure.
Thrown in Mexican coke and this place is pretty much all you need to have a satisfying meal for under $ 5 any day of the week.

They are in a «new» building. The old building was partially demolished as is now a Seven-​11. They are now in the building that housed Mercedes Restaurant.
Enjoyed 2 tacos for lunch. Perfect examples of street tacos.

Don’t be fooled by the building and miss Tacos Tijuana.
The building was, long ago, obviously some sort of fish joint. It has the look of fake New England-​style clam shack. But, now it is «no hablo Inglés» at this Mexican restaurant.
The atmosphere is very plain, but I did enjoy the Norteño music spilling forth from the jukebox.
My Torta Cubana was very tasty. Pork cutlet, hot dog and ham. A huge sandwich for $ 5.50. That and the diet Coke (¡no free refills!) was a satisfying lunch.
I am not «a fan», but I might become one. I need more visits to Tacos Tijuana.
