“ Good food with friendly staff, already tried the burrito and the salad in the tortilla bowl, highly recommend ”
“ Although, I did not dine in- the Power Burrito that I had delivered was SO good! It was made to order; fresh, with finely chopped veggies, and the toppings were every bit of delicious! I look forward to eating here again. ”
“ The steak and chorizo nachos are ridiculous! I expected them to be good because many people told us their food is good but I assumed, like many places, you'd get a pile of chips and little toppings... not the case here, they are LOADED!!! Seriously the best nachos I've ever had. ”
“ I always order a carnitas burrito with black beans and no sour cream. I think it's just incredible that they have never once accidentally given me sour cream. I go here once a week with coworkers. The food is fantastic. ”
“ I walked in and wasn't sure what to order. I asked them what they recommended and they said the Campechano Street Taco. Wasn't something I would typically order but figured I would give it a try. The dish was made fresh to order on corn tortillas that were dipped in a seasoning sauce then grilled on the flattop with a cheese melted on the tacos. The dish was very good. I would definitely recommend it. The spicy green salsa was also delicious had a great flavor. If you're in downtown Birmingham it's definitely worth a try! ”
“ Great Food!! My Hubby and I were visiting from out of town and the reviews for University Tacos were good so we ordered thru Door dash. Hubby devoured the beef tacos (crunchy and Soft- both were excellent) and I ate all my Steak Street tacos. Cheese dip was exactly how it should be! Definitely recommend! ”
“ A taco lover's dream come true! The tacos were absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors that transported me straight to Mexico. The Tinga tostada was a standout, bursting with flavor and perfectly crispy. The prices were reasonable, and the generous portion sizes left me feeling satisfied. If you're craving some mouthwatering tacos, I highly recommend this place :) ”
“ I'm so happy to have found this place. They take such good care of us and make amazing food! After living abroad for so long and not having access to Mexican food for years, this place makes me fat and happy and am glad to visit them every day I'm here. ”
