Love the people. Love the food. It may seem weird that they have Mexican cuisine and cheeseburgers on the menu... But it's all very tasty and very affordable!!

This is the BEST Mexican food in Kansas City! The owners are wonderful people who work hard to make delicious and authentic Mexican food. We have eaten there over 25 times and have never disliked a meal. We have referred multiple people to Tacos El Matador....and they have all loved it! Skip Jose Peppers and go HERE for amazing food.

Gordita Love on Valentine's Night!. Took my lover-boy for a surprise excursion Valentine's night. (ok busted-so I was looking forward to it too!) Every time I find Gordita's on a menu I have to give them a try and these put all the others I've had to shame. The Gordita biscuit itself is the best I've had, and the filling was good. Also had the guacamole, tostada, & taco. I don't know what all my husband had but he raved about the Gordita also. Nice clean restaurant, off the beaten path and through a chuck hole ridden parking lot but oh so worth it. Great service, nice people..they can plan on seeing us again.

Good find. Don't let the hole-in-the-wall appearance of this taco joint fool you; Tacos El Matador exceeded my already high expectations. Our service was fast and very friendly and the tacos el pastor were great. It was my first time there but I will definately be going back.

Love the al Pastor tacos! The meat is very tender. The salsa is great too. Lime game is weak, though so ask for extra if you like a lot of lime like me. My friend said the fish taco was amazing. He's gotten it several times now. Booth seats are all a little wonky but it just adds to the ambiance. Small place but definitely worth a try.

First time there. Cozy and awesome. Both the kids and us liked what we got. I didn’t know what I wanted or how it should be cooked, but our wait staff was patient and super helpful. Our first time, but definitely not the last.

Excellent, authentic, and inexpensive tacos! Highly recommend. Definitely a hole in the wall type place but if you like authentic tacos then you know that's a good thing. Pastor were some of the best I've had and asada was very good also!

Compared to other locations, tacos are cheaper here which is nice. I liked the crispy tripas. Definitely crispy, but a little on the salty side, other than that, it was good. Service is good. I asked for the spiciest sauce and they did give me that. But I was hoping they'd give me the other sauces too, my fault for not clarifying. The gordita was okay.

Estos tacos están matadores! These are some killer tacos! I consider myself a taco connoisseur, I’ve tried tacos in Mexico City, Monterrey, Las Vegas and New York. These tacos are among the most delicious ones I’ve tried. The meat is delicious and while the taco is not dripping grease it’s still very flavorful. I asked for them to grill my onions which they did and that gave the tacos a very MEXICO City street like flavor. I gave it 4 stars as the tortilla is the traditional white corn as opposed to yellow, which is widely used in the streets of Mexico in taco stands. The chips tasted stale and it took a while to get our food. However you don’t go to a taco place to get chips and salsa but to get tacos so I can easily overlook the chips. I had a carne asada taco, a chorizo and a pastor, they were all delicious. The salsas were ok, not great and that is another area in which they could improve. Overall these are amongst the best tacos in KC and i will definitely be coming back for more! I only wish this restaurant was in a better part of town as I would not venture to come eat here after dark.

No frills interior, the parking lot is a bit torn up, and so are the seat cushions. Absolutely awesome tacos! I keep coming back here. The people that work there are great. Everyone had a mask on.
