Tacos La Banqueta

I've been wanting to visit this spot for years, but I don't visit downtown Dallas enough to stop by. My manager recently reminded me of this place, and I was downtown for an anime convention, so it was perfect timing. The restaurant is a little outdated and dirty, but that's how you know the food is going to be FIRE. The menu was simple and easy to understand. You have your typical street tacos, tortas, quesadillas, and drinks. Luckily, we came right before the dinner rush because after we sat down, the restaurant was PACKED and the line went from one end to the other. The tables were pretty dirty. I'm not sure if the workers wipe them down after someone sits there, but I grabbed some paper towels and wiped them before sitting. My boyfriend and I ordered 10 tacos, each with different meats so we can try them out. I also got a horchata fresca as well, and it was one of the best horchata that I tried. Idk what they did, but the drink was light, and there wasn't too much of that grainy part inside. It took about 10 mins for the tacos to come out, and HOLY SH*T, the tacos were ALL SO FREAKIN' GOOD!!! I loved my typical lingua and tripe tacos, but the highlight was the suadero tacos. I think that's a thin slice of beef, but it was juicy and authentic and they have the perfect amount of onion and cilantro. I regret not buying more of the suadero tacos, and the line was too long for me to get some to-go. I took off one star because of the cleanliness. I usually don't mind but the tables were really dirty and there were flies flying around. I'll definitely grab like 6+ tacos next time for myself because I've been thinking about their juicy tacos for days now. Delicious!!

Our favorite taco joint in DFW. We love everything we've had here. Everything is really well seasoned and cooked fresh to order. Our favorites are the lengua, al pastor, suadero, and tripa tacos on corn tortillas. Think about this place a lot and wish I lived closer.

I get Suadero Tacos/Quesadillas and they are THE BEST! I haven't found a Taco Spot in Dallas that can compete. I am a Regular!!! Be sure to get the GREEN SAUCE. And they are open until 11pm. Service is good. To me the food taste better at night with the men cooks. And most of he time (except close to closing) they fill the taco/quesadilla FULL with meat! 10/10 recommend.

This place is a Dallas gem of a taco tour. Don’t let the line inside distract your mission here. Wait it out if it’s too the back wall it’s a 15 - 20 min to hit the window to order. From there the tacos are fast back out the other side. I felt there were about 10 people back there handling everything. Another secret is to call in your order and pick up and eat there. Tacos were out of this world. Don’t mind the decor but don’t be on a diet when you hit the parking lot.

I’m from out of town and heard that these were some of the best tacos and they were pretty good. The al pastor and bistec were great, and the suadero quesadilla is perfect. They had the best salsa roja I’ve ever had and the service was great!
