El Gordo Mexican Bakery - Peoria

Absolutely love this place! Whether it’s a tasty treat or lunch for my team, El Gordo Mexican Bakery is my go to! Super friendly service and their social media is always up to date. You can’t go wrong here!

The baked goods are outstanding. Most of the goodies are not as sweet as standard bakery fare so don't expect lots of sugary sweetness. It's always just enough sugar. You pick your own to go so it is an adventure! The staff are very kind and helpful. They have a tres leches cake that is fantastic. There are these meat, cheese and jalapeno rolls that are fantastic.

The MOST authentic Mexican food I have had since visiting Mexico. We bought a dozen tamales and was pleasantly surprised. A lot of Mexican food tends to get 'White Washed ' but not at this place. We will be going back. Hopefully their tables inside will be available again. Rating A Over the top OUTSTANDING!

Favorite new taco joint in Peoria. Chicken tacos are phenomenal.

So I've been to this bakery before but this was my first time trying their street tacos, let me just say he's talking hit the spot, traditional tacos made with love and the man preparing them definitely knew what he was doing also the red and green salsas with the best I've ever had kudos to him or whoever prepared these they were delicious will definitely be back with my husband for many more tacos to come.
