Reviews for Taqueria Guadalajara in Madison, WI
What. A. Gem. This neighborhood hole-in-the-wall offers some classics but also items that you don?t see everywhere. The mole was... more savory than sweet, which I loved! Can not wait to go back again soon!! Read more
Ordered 3 pastor, 3 carne asada. I received 6 carne asada and 0 pastor. After cooking marinated meats at my job all day I was in... the mood for pastor. Tortillas we?re not authentic, or flavorful. They were almost a chore to eat. Meat wasn?t very flavorful.Sauces were okay at best. Limes basically hidden under the tacos. I moved to Madison last September. I?ve been somewhat let downby the independently operated food establishments in the area. I have tried this restaurant once before and had a similarexperience. I wanted to give them another shot, as I?ve heard it recommended multiple times. I?ve lived and eaten tacosthroughout Phoenix, Texas, Cali, etc. I?ve worked with authentic Mexican chefs from Oaxaca, Jalisco, Puebla, Sonora, etc. I?vetraveled the states for food. I think Taqueria Guadalajara has potential. They just need to figure out the logistics, and to notsell steak tacos as pastor. Read more
Awesome place! Very simple, their home made chips are the best. There are not many places that serve menudo but here they do it... on weekends, and it's amazing! Read more
There is a reason why this restaurant is constantly voted one of the best in Madison. It's a bare-bones "hole in the wall" place... with a space in the back for larger parties but it is the real deal - an authentic Mexican joint, the kind of place you'd findin Texas, not Americanized and everything on their menu is superb. My favorite taco place by far. Read more
Admittedly it has been awhile since dining here but it did not disappoint. We went with a bit of a brunch featuring Huevos a la... Mexicana, Pollo en Mole, and Platillo mi Rancho. Delicious. Read more
Consistently yummy and filling, Taqueria Guadalajara is one of my favorite places to go when I?m craving some good Mexican food.... My dad consistently comes back for their lengua burritos and my entire family loves their menudo. As a vegetarian, I appreciatethe options they provide. Their veggie burrito is good, but I recently decided to go back to a classic childhood favorite in theform of their quesadilla de rajas and was NOT disappointed. It was bursting with flavor and came with a bunch of yummy fixings,some that weren?t even listed as included, which was a nice surprise. I?d highly recommend to anyone looking for yummy localfood.

Ordered food online through them yesterday, we put in special requests for no sour cream on enchiladas, no cheese on the two... chicken tacos and no lettuce and tomato on the other two chicken tacos. All of which had all ingredients on. The modificationsare a matter of not adding ingredients, not asking for too much. A fast food restaurant can comprehend better. Our food was alsocold. When we called the restaurant they not only didn?t take responsibility, the woman on the phone told us ?to just pick thelettuce off.? So unprofessional, we are paying full price for the food and the point is that NONE of it is how we ordered it.The staff is Incompetent to say the least. We have ordered from them multiple times and they have lost another group ofcustomers. will not recommend. Read more
