Taqueria Express

I love this place tacos are super cheap under $ 2 a taco. The pastor tacos are the best! The natural fruit juices are good as well!

This is a really fast real cheap good food restaurant. Its the second time I visit them and I’ll probably become a regular. I love the passion fruit juice and all the food I tried it’s well seasoned. It’s a real authentic Mexican restaurant.

Now to say I am NOT a Mexican food fan would be an understatement but my wife is
I found this place just by chance and I have fallen in love with it.
for me to say that about a Mexican restaurant means an awful lot
I highly recommend their food I highly recommend their sauces they are some really nice people and the price is very inexpensive give this one a try and you won’t be sorry

Food was good and cheap. The kids loved the tacos and quesadillas. Finely chopped/​shredded meats and not chunky for those who care to know that. I had a carnita taco, al pastor taco, and carne asada taco. All were full of flavor and tender. A great spot for very affordable quick Mexican dishes in Charlotte.

Ok so ive been craving Mexican tacos for some time now. So while out running to the neighborhood store I smell some awesome food. I didn’t know what it was and asked the cashier. He said it’s probably that Mexican restaurant a few blocks up. What??? I pull in and instantly know that, yes this is what I’ve been smelling. I order 3 shredded pork tacos with avocado. After dressing my tacos with alittle salt, jalapeño sauce, a squeeze of lime and add my radishes. I took my first bite and started singing… Sir Mix a Lot/​Nikki Manji remix OH MY GOD… Becky Lmao I’m through lol #authenictacos #whyhaventibeenherebefore

Rebuilt and reopened and as good as ever! Glad to see it.

Best tacos in town. Period. This little place is a hidden gem. Everything I’ve had here has met or exceeded expectations. The women that run this place, though a little shy, are always more than accommodating. I am somewhat of a tacos aficionado and have eaten many tacos in many locales… These are some of the best I’ve had anywhere. The tortas are wonderful, too.

Though not much has survived long in this location (going way back to La Bamba and continuing through the fruit and veggie stand), the Taqueria Express has managed to eke out an existence for some time.
Please note: When they say «express», it does not necessarily mean what you think it means. While service isn’t really slow, it’s not fast food — it’s more like «sparse» or «simple» than «fast».
That doesn’t mean that it’s bad — quite the contrary, in fact. What you get isn’t bad at all, just be prepared for what you’re getting (and perhaps brush up on some Spanglish, because there isn’t a lot of English spoken in these parts).
What they really need to do is open a quick-​serve window to the park and ride and I suspect they would do really well.

Asked for one type of taco and they brought out another kind. I didn’t want to argue. Will not go back to this place. PS health grade 93.5

Small place, limited menu but it’s authentic mexican and really good

Two dollar al pastor tacos and a Coke hecho en Mexico makes me a happy chica. Little tiny counter with a few tables to dine in. Kitchen looked spotless. Great place to stop across the street from Bargain Hunters. This would equal a delightful afternoon.

Keep in mind their sign actually reads Taqueria Express.
This is a tiny little taco stand carved out of Fruteria El Pueblo just west of Woodlands on Albemarle. Orders are placed at a window overlooking a stuffed, hot kitchen. Food is quick and simple. Menu’s surprisingly large — lots of tacos, quesadillas, burritos — didn’t seen any Salva-​or-​Ecuadorian influences on there. Language could be an issue if you no tengo un pequeno espanol.
I have a thing for tortas, so that’s what I got — and it was good. A little pricey (6.50 for huevos y queso) but easily one of the better ones I’ve had in CLT. Soft, sweet teleras, Monterey-​Jacky cheese, shredded lettuce, some jalapenos. A mess to eat, but whatevs.
This isn’t the «IT» torta, but it’s totally worth a stop.
