Taco Star - Grand Junction: Reviews & Ratings

We discovered them back in September, and I have gone back a few times. I’ve tried their Colorado burritos with guacamole, and their fish tocos and they used to be really good. However, it makes me wonder if they hired somebody from Los J’s recently, because the fish tacos and the burritos I got were full of onions like theirs and it’s quite unpleasant and it’s disappointing. Please go back to how you used to be with piping hot burritos, and more tomatoes and less onions in your pico. The staffs are very kind and helpful so I will come back and continue to recommend you guys to everyone.

Easily the best fast food Mexican restaurant in town! Great quality food that is NOT a gut bomb! It tastes like it is home made and made to order! Meat has never been fatty. Surprisingly has never been greasy. I have now had them multiple times at different times of day and the food is always incredible! Service is amazing, all employees are very nice and most importantly the place is always clean and well maintained!

The Carne Asada Fries were super good! The prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are large. The people working there were also very nice and the wait wasn't very long. I no longer have to drive across town to get great mexican fast food! I would definitely eat here again!

Delicious authentic mexican food! They were very friendly and helpful. I ordered the carne asada tacos as they are my favorite food and they by far passed my expectations! We came in close to closing time and the staff allowed us to eat and didn’t make us feel rushed or unwelcome. They have a wide selection of food and drinks. And the price is very reasonable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone craving Mexican cuisine!

◇◇◇ Updated Menu pics ◇◇◇ If you want a genuine taste of Mexico... here it is. Wow. I ordered tacos and the carne asada was amazing however the Adobada is fire. No one else in GJ do it better. I was mentally and taste wise was taken to a street vendor in Mexico ????????. Also they put guacamole standard on these and gave 2x to 3x more meat than anyone else in town. Best Bang for your buck for only $4 !!! Orchard was large and delicious. Their custom green sauce was awesome as well. I ordered 4 tacos and had to share them with my wife. She got the rolled tacos. They were great. Location was exceptionally clean and quick service. Go here if you want genuine Mexican food.
