Reviews for Norteños Taqueria in Thunder Bay, ON
We enjoyed our lunch here - tried chicken and pork tacos, the corn side, and a bean quesadilla. I would have preferred more... cheese and fewer beans- but you definitely get a lot of food and wouldn't go hungry! The green and red salsa were delish! Read more
It?s soo good!! We got the birria tacos, taquitos, and various tacos. The corn tortilla is made in house and everything was so... flavourful. Definitely not spicy at all LOL Read more
Heard many good things leading up to my first visit to the Taqueria and they didn't disappoint! Great selection of homemade... food items at a very reasonable price. And if you're thirsty, the Taqueria is licenced with a small selection of beers. Yougotta eat here if you like sweet, spice and everything nice....deeeeelicious and highly recommend! Read more
It's always tricky to find authentic flavour when a resturant is advertised as mexican and ends up being a low key Taco... Bell/Taco Time, and if you ever tasted real mexican food, you know that is far from it. So, it was a very wonderful suprise whenmy tacos were brought to the table and I took the first bite. First of all, those are hand made tortillas, not super thin, notsuper thick, just perfect. Then, the pork carnitas. Omg. So damn good! I ordered one taco of tinga (chicken) too and I wasn'tdisappointed. So much flavour, so juicy, and with the salsas, cilantro, onion and lime... Made my saturday. I'll definitely comeback! Read more
Must try place! Flavors are unreal! I wish we tried 1 of each ???? will definitely be back... if you love Mexican food youll... love this lil hidden gem!5 stars Read more
It was super good, authentic Mexican food and the alot of the menu has Spanish names. It's not super expensive for what you get... either. The tacos have a lot of meat and it's good portions. There is a bar outdoors where they make the drinks, the drink menuis a little selective and q bit more costly but still well made. 5 stars for me! Read more
Finally! Mexican cuisine in Thunder Bay. I say finally because I just found Norteños Taqueria. Apparently it?s been around for... a bit now. What can I say? I?m generally the guy that?s always late to the party. In my defense, I have been living a secludedlife for the last few years. I have never been to Mexico yet, but I'm confident that I now know what authentic Mexican foodtastes like without having to leave Thunder Bay. Word around the campfire is that the owners of this place actually lived inMexico as their craft was perfected. I don?t know if that is confirmed or if it is all just hearsay. My taste buds are tellingme that it is absolute fact. There are also gluten-free options if that?s the kind of thing that blows your hair back thesedays. Staff was very friendly and informative for a first timer like myself. Both flavors of the homemade salsa are delicious,with just a little kick to it. Quesadillas, Taquitos, Tacos, Tortas and Tostadas. That?s quite a few reasons for me to go backright there, and I very much look forward to my next visit. Keep up the great work! Read more
Hidden Gem in Thunder Bay. Authentic Taqueria. Order: Birria Tacos, A plantain dish forgot the name. Got a jarritos to... drink. Location: I was just stopping by in thunder Bay so I don't know where this is in relation to the city. I found it fromGoogle. However it is a nice little restaurant with a nice patio. 4/5 Service: I think it was the owner or manager of therestaurant that took my order? She was awesome. The service is great. Everyone is friendly and were prompt with orders.5/5 Value: excellent value for what you're getting. High quality fresh food at a low price. High quality dinner for $20something, are u kidding me? Can't beat that. 5/5 Taste: My girlfriend is Mexican from Mexico. I know what good Mexican foodtastes like. I did not expect thunder bay to have Birria tacos and delicious ones too. It was so good, my friends told me tobring them some when they saw it on my IG. I was travelling. They made a 4 hour trip. Reheat in air fryer still amazing. They can hold their own against some from Mexico and LA. 5/5 Overall: outstanding tacos. If I am ever in Thunder Bay, I willdefinitely come back. I will have to tell my friends who live in Thunder Bay about this place if they don't know by now. Manyof them live and work in Thunder Bay but always fly back to Toronto. 5/5 Read more
