      I downloaded Yelp just to leave this review. This is my all time favorite restaurant. The food is second to none. The service is incredibly efficient. The Al-Pastor would be my last meal if I were to die right after. If you don't know what to get, just get tacos and try out all the proteins. I cannot recommend this place enough. Mexican food is my favorite, and this is THE BEST place in Orlando.

      CANNOT recommend it enough.

      El Alacrán Taquería is a culinary delight! The moment you step inside, you're transported to a world of exquisite Mexican flavors. The tacos are nothing short of amazing - bursting with authenticity and freshness. The friendly staff adds to the warm and inviting atmosphere, making you feel right at home.

      The extensive menu offers a wide variety of options, ensuring there's something for every palate. From the perfectly seasoned meats to the mouthwatering salsas, every dish is a taste bud adventure.

      Whether you're a fan of traditional Mexican cuisine or a newbie to the flavors of the south, El Alacrán is a must-visit. It's more than a restaurant; it's a journey through the rich tapestry of Mexican cuisine. I can't recommend it highly enough - 5 stars!

      We've always ordered our Mexican from Taqueria. Quality, quantity and consistency is always great. But tonight we tried a newer restaurant in Ocoee. Never again! Taqueria es muy bueno!

      Now this is what I would call a hidden gem in more than one way as they are doing it right one taco at a time!

      So we ordered a few different things and all of them were seriously scrumptious like you really can't go wrong with anything here!

      The Chile Relleno was perfect it had the right amount of cheese in it and you can tell it was freshly made making for one yummy dish with their rice and beans which were also super good too!

      The Al pastor quesadilla was yummy too as it reminded me of that homemade taste when you cook one on the stove top and it was just good even more so with their super yummy Al pastor inside.

      Now those tacos are some of the best ones I've had in years like oh sooo good as they make their own tortillas so they are super fresh and the meat was perfect both the asada and Al pastor were super flavorful and then the salsa that I put over the top was just ohhh sooo good the both of them the hot one then mixed with the avocado one then some cilantro and onions sprinkled on top of the tacos making for some incredible tacos like you really can't go wrong with that at all just soooo good!

      Overall they do it right here in more than one way this is by far some super legit Mexican food and I know that I'll be back here again soon as those tacos are seriously scrumptious along with everything else!

      We just ordered food from this place via uber eats. How disappointing and a waste pf money. The food came ice cold, not even room temperature, and there was barely any beans in my pinto beans just runny sauce with no flavor. The tostadas we're thrown in a container not even put together, we had to put them together ourselves. The food was seriously disgusting, did not taste good at all. Wow what a waste p
      of money!

      This was an absolutely phenomenal experience.

      The space is small if dining in, but the food is unbelievably delicious. The service was impeccable and the flavors are indescribable. The menu is filled with so many options and very affordable! Tacos being less than 2 dollars!!!!

      I would highly recommend this location! 10/10

      This place is definitely a hidden gem! & must try!
      Their food is authentic and full of flavor, I can't wait to go back. They have a lot on the menu to offer at a reasonable and inexpensive cost. I love the fact that their tacos and meat is made in house!! Then their left just like that, and you top them off yourself with whatever you'd like at their toppings and sauce bar. What a cool concept :) thanks!!!! Will be back soon.

      This place is my absolute favorite. The handmade tortillas are just superb. It's very authentic if you ask me and I'm really picky with Mexican food (I was born and raised in little town in Mexico)
      The place is a hidden gem
