"The food is very good.The service is very good.We had the chips and salsa excellent salsa. The chorizo tacos, I was highly surprised that each taco had a whole chorizo on each taco. The drinks were very good. My only complaint would be. The pricing was very high for a taqueria."

"What a fun place! The atmosphere is great and the service is excellent. The food was delicious! I had the Birria tacos , which I couldn’t often find in the neighborhood. I had some kind of spicy watermelon cocktail. They could easily lose the odd glasses they come in. First I’m sure the drinks are pretty in a clear glass and second I couldn’t tell if the glasses were clean. The place is large and festive, I’m so happy this place opened up in my neighborhood."

"I had a fantastic experience at Bandoleros Tacos! Even though my server was new to the business, they were incredibly attentive, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable. I came in expecting tacos, but thanks to their thoughtful suggestions, I got to try a mini smash burger as well—and it was delicious! The personalized service and quality food make this place a must-try. Highly recommended"

"A lively spot with excellent service and a fun, inviting atmosphere. I tried the chicken tacos. They have all you can eat Tacos in Tuesday special (3 different ones you can pick from) for 19.99$ plus tax is definitely worth"

"What better day to crave Mexican food than on Taco Tuesday… I have seen some reviews about this new place in Oakland Park, so we figured to give it a try. There is plenty of free parking and the staff welcomed us as soon as we stepped inside. There are two dining areas, the air conditioned inside and a beautiful covered outside patio. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. The manager explained us all the Taco Tuesday promotions. Of course we took advantage of the all you can eat tacos and the yummy half price margaritas. Holy crap, they were strong and tasty. I tried all the taco options. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The pork was absolutely DELICIOUS, but the beefy fell short for our whole table. The meat was dry and so salty….. Even our vegan friends loved their veggie tacos A lot of restaurants are cutting back on staff but not this place. The service was fantastic. The music was at a comfortable level, so you could have a nice conversation and the decor is very cool. We will be back for sure and the next time we want to try other dishes from the menu."

"Sanela was amazingggggg!!! The corn ribs, rib tacos, and mango shrimp tacos are amazing. The burgers are really smashed. I would advise you to order a double or triple. They are the same size as McDonald’s cheese burgers. Green tea shots run smooth and are sweet like boba"

"On my B•Day there yesterday I'd fined alone... But the reception, atmosphere & service was exceptional ‼ Food? Was pretty good too, but just a bit too salty for me. I sent it back (chicken tacos ) & Np they politely replaced it for a different preparation. My complimentary drink was totally delightful! ~Thank you to all staff who made my birthday a real treat!!! I highly recommend this establishment & will most def revisit soon again."
