Let me tell you about the culinary rodeo I experienced at Taqueria el Jinete, where the pastor tacos aren’t just food; they’re a round trip ticket to Flavor Town with a layover in Deliciousville. The arroz con pollo? A masterpiece! It’s like the cook whispered a secret to each grain of rice, and the secret was “be irresistible," only in Spanish.
Now, the salsas. Oh, those salsas! They were like a trio of dance partners, each with their own spicy moves. I salsa’d my way through all three, and let’s just say, it was a close call to the finish line. But fear not, for I made it home without any ‘explosive’ detours. Something to keep in mind or else you'll find yourself rushing into the local Circle K red faced and pants unbuckled yelling, "BATHROOM! BATHROOM!"
Taqueria el Jinete is the place to go if you’re looking for a meal that’s both a party in your mouth and a get up and go for your gastrointestinal system. Just maybe don’t plan any immediate post-dinner activities, unless they are close to home.
The authenticity meter at Taqueria el Jinete is off the charts! You couldn’t get more authentic unless you took a jaunt south of the border. But why bother with climbing the wall and taking your chances with the cartel when you can just pop into Taqueria el Jinete and let your taste buds take all the risk? ¡Olé!
Best taco place, I love their chorizo tacos. Food is good quality, have tried many dishes from here and it's always so good. Always friendly
Update: i have been back several times since my original post. Still the best place to find authentic oaxacan food. Loved the chicken tinge thus time.
The tacos are fire! Must come by and try it out. good selection of beers to compliment the food. my first trip but not last.
Love this taco joint because they have legit, corn tacos. As good as it gets minus actually being in Mexico. The family is actually from Oaxaca, too, which makes this an extra special place for me. The tacos are so good and served piping hot. ???? ???? ???? Sauces are also yummy! It is super clean and service is always so friendly and on point. This is the taco spot for this area. Go here now!
The place was very very clean!!! The food was very very good!!! The service was adequate. All of the sauces were good. I ordered chicken, steak, lengua (tongue) and El Pastor tacos and they were so delicious I had to order more and I was already full lol So then I ordered the Birria, shrimp, and carnitas next and they were so good too!! I’m currently laying down ready for a nap! Highly recommend the steak, El pastor and the carnitas!! Seasoned very well!! I will be back soon…
Tried out Taqueria el jinete tonight and holy smokes!!!! This is my new taco spot. We tried a lot since it was our first time. Clean inside, counter service to order then they deliver to your table and check in on you.
•Chips, salsa & guacamole: chips were hot and fresh, salsa was tasty (not too spicy), and the guac was delicious. As good as I’ve had off a cart on the beach in Mexico.
•Torta de ceviche: delicious, balanced flavor, tender shrimp
•Tacos:
-al pastor: perfection, my new favorite
-birria: so tender and juicy, amazingly seasoned
-chorizo: best I’ve ever had
•Rice: don’t let the color fool you; it was PACKED with flavor.
•Pina agua fresca: sweet and so refreshing; exactly what I hoped it would be.
Overall I give this place a 10/10. Must try. Everything was packed with flavor. Got all the above for around $40.
Our family really enjoyed this restaurant. It is a family owned and we got fantastic service. We are vegetarian and found enough options for everyone, however I recommend them to add more. Over all love the guacamole and sauces.
Lots of choices that are truly and authentic from Mexico, tacos al pastor were very tasty and well done. The tinga tostada was not as spicy as traditionally.
