Taco Tuesday: $1.5 per! I'm giving this a 4 star because the amount of meat was pretty small, but for 1.5 it's alright. I've seen other places load it on for that price. Nonetheless it was good, I loved that the chorizo wasn't super oily like other places I've had it at before! It took maybe 5 minutes for my food to be done :).

I didn't know there were 2 Taqueria El Jarocho and that this was the first.The second one on mission closed and I was pretty bummed because 1.50 tacos were my go to on Tuesday but I'm happy I found the first to get my taco fix. The burritos are my second faves and the prices are way cheaper than any other taqueria I've been to so far.The restaurant is clean and has plenty of room for a good size group.I saw over dozen tables to sit in and enjoy some food.Staff are friendly and fast.

My buddy and I stopped by for Taco Tuesday and let me tell you, these $1 tacos were amazing!!! There were juicy, soft, and the meat proportion was perfect! You have to check out this spot, make sure to order one of each! This is a highly recommend for me!

HAPPY TACO TUESDAY !! $1 tacos are the best!! I haven't had tacos in forever, and I was skeptical at first because I've never been here but it did not disappoint! Below is a list of everything I got! Al pastor tacos were well seasoned and it came with just the right amount of salsa. I loved every bite of it and wished I got more! Carnitas were delicious! It could use a bit more seasoning but I still enjoyed it! The Verde sauce complimented the carnitas well too! Overall, I would come back! Maybe after finals LOL I recommend trying it out, especially on Tuesdays!!
