Counter-service taqueria specializing in al pastor and asada with fast, friendly service, fair prices, and a clean, casual space; best for tacos, gringas, and loaded fries, with minor complaints about small tortillas, occasional dryness, and parking.
Why it gets a B for overall quality
Top Taco delivers solid casual dining through strong food quality anchored by standout al pastor and exceptional service attentiveness that keeps orders moving quickly. Consistency shows occasional variation in seasoning and meat preparation, while the functional but unremarkable setting prevents higher distinction—this is neighborhood taco excellence, not destination dining.
Restaurant Summary
Top Taco feels clean and welcoming the moment you step in. Order at the counter, grab a salsa caddy, and your name is called within minutes. Reviewers rave that the al pastor is "crispy-edged and juicy," and the team is genuinely friendly. Parking is tight out front, but there is extra parking behind. The cooking leans classic street-taco style: focused menu, trompo-sliced al pastor, simple toppings, and bright salsas. Gringas, burritos, and loaded fries round it out. Most praise bold flavors and fair prices, though a few note small tortillas or occasional underseasoning on asada; dine-in speed is usually quick. Families do well here thanks to quesadillas and fries, plus simple tacos kids will eat. No formal kids menu, but the pricing and portions keep it approachable. If your child avoids onions or spice, ask at the counter for light toppings and pick the milder salsa.
