Taco Gordo - Burlington

We saw the highlights of this little Taco place on diners, drive intos and dives and were sure that it was in our vacation through the opposite. it is an order at the window type and they have a beautiful small terrace. the type was right, the el pastor taco was skrumple! flat of slightly crooked pork and ananas were the highlights of this tellers set of many fresh zilantro and adobe sauce, which is layered with taste! good service, relaxed atmosphere. I am jealous of the people who live in a distance from this precious stone.

Best Mexican restaurant in burlington. the drinks are great and eating is great. not too expensive. the al pastor is fantastic.

I never really enjoyed tacos as I don't eat a lot of meat but the chicken tacos at Taco Gordo were incredible! It's a great restaurant with indoor and outdoor seats. The food is a great value and the margarita and drink selection is overflowing!

It's Taco Tuesday in Burlington's old North end and there's no better place to be, than Taco Gordo. It's a local hub of loud, standing room only, self-service deliciousness served up in baskets of bueno. With a full bar, and a creative Inez mixing up everything from standards to special requests, you really can't go wrong. Start with the chips and guac, especially if you're like me and love your fatty avocado cut with a little extra acid...and don't forget the agua, because there's no sparing the salt on the snappy house made tortillas. It was tempting to try it all...but I limited myself to a taco tinga, pork tamale, and guac tostada. The tostada arrived crispy with a healthy dose of cilantro that I really enjoyed. The taco was both light and satisfying with a good mix of flavors...if you're seeking senseless heat, this is not a hot pepper challenge. It's good authentic food. While the masa was on the dry side (likewise the rice), the pork tamale was full of flavor. With a side of rice and beans, my three choices turned out to be more than enough for a fulfilling and enjoyable meal. It's close quarters, but most of our nearby diners we're friendly and eager to share in conversation. I was concerned about one man at the bar who appeared to be gnawing on his forearm, until I watched him dip it in salsa verde and realized it was a massive burrito. Next time, Taco Gordo...next time...mi amigo.

Absolutely delicious food and great drinks! faster service, great staff! we will be here again and again!
