Taco Lucas

41 Degrees outside, driving up and down Richmond Highway looking for good food because that’s what I do. So I decide to give this place a try because I’ve seen it busy while driving by and said to myself it’s typically places like this that have the best food. Let me tell you, they DID NOT miss! Joel, the kind gentleman at counter was very polite and professional. He gave me background to the culture behind the food and even gave me hot sauce (delicious) and their homemade ketchup which was surprisingly good too. I got the steak and cheese sandwich and it had BITE! A lil spicy but definitely what the weatherman ordered. I crushed the hot sauce on top of the sandwich that had peppers in it. I also got the pork and cheese papusa , I give it a 9 out of 10. All that was lacking was more pork lol. I even got the El Salvadorian Quesadilla - which was freshly made earlier before I arrived. Overall I had a great experience and plan to return for completely different dishes. The pictures don’t serve this place justice. I would absolutely recommend.

I have passed this restaurant more than a dozen times over the years, but I never had the opportunity to come in and give it a try. Since I was already in the neighborhood I figured that I would check it out for a quick bite to eat. They have plenty of options here when it comes to Mexican food, but I went for the basic tacos which is what I'm more familiar with. I ordered 2 basic tacos which were $3.00 each and a small fountain drink. The tacos were delicious, however not the biggest tacos that I've seen. I will definitely need to eat later on this evening, which I had planned on anyway. The employee behind the counter who took my order was friendly, and he was the same person who brought the food to my table.

So stumbled on this unassuming taco place and was amazed! Our son has been recommending we should try Birria tacos which I have never heard of. Taco Lucas has them and they are going to be a new binge taco dish for us! For one, everything is fresh made-including the salsa which has a nice kick! The star of the show was the Birria taco which we learned from the manager is a slow cooked chuck roast with a bunch of spices along with Serrano and habenero peppers. The meat then is chopped up and put into a cheese laced corn tortilla and crisped up. Then they give you the broth to dip the taco in. Their broth is thick, full of fresh flavors but not spicy. We also had a carnitas and Carne asada taco which were superb. Generous meat portions with good seasoning. Since they make each taco to order, expect to wait longer than Taco Bell! But hey it’s worth the wait!

**mouth watering tacos** This restaurant is something in a good way. Passed by it a lot of times and was curious about it. Went inside to try, very clean. The inside looked like a mexican restaurant. The menu is in english and the person who took our order was very experienced. Got our food, and the first bite I took from the taco, shattered my expectations beyond all reason. The pictures say it all and I was amazed overall. If you want some great tacos to go or to dine in, come to tacos Lucas. You won't be dissatisfied.

Really good home made food. The wait time was like 15min which was not bad for three people, the food came out hot and delicious. The food tasted fresh and well made. There was plenty of parking; hint: you order food first then sit yourself down and they bring you your food also refills are not free but it's only .50 cents. Staff and atmosphere were nice and very kind, please be patient in food wait.
