    Amazing, good quality food. Fresh made tortillas & high grade meats. Mexican is my favorite & its hard to find restaurant in miami with both good food & integrity. Ive been a chef for over 10years & im picky to say the least. I highly recommend Better Tacos to anyone who wants good food, a friendly environment & outstanding customer service. My husband's a friend of Steve & he wasn't lying when he said it was top tear. A Kut Above The Rest

    The tacos came out miniature and I paid like $15 for them and they literally looked toddler sized and the shells were hard. Maybe it was just the tacos that are bad since reviews are good but I definitely wouldn’t pay for it again.

    This was amazing. I told my husband I was shocked it wasn’t packed. The Birria street tacos were life changing! So delicious. The margarita was no frills just a good margarita on the rocks! Highly recommend - super cute decor and friendly staff!

    Delicious! This food is worth its weight in gold! I initially thought it was a little pricey but not once I saw how much food I got and how wonderful it smelled. Trust me, get the birria.

    If you’re searching for good Mexican, search elsewhere. I have to be honest, the only thing I LOVED here was my Corona (not even offered a lime). The food was blah. It lacked flavor and where they tried to add “flavor,” it fell flat. I ordered tacos de birria with pico de gallo on the side and a side of elote. My husband ordered a burrito with birria and a side of chips and queso. The tacos were low on seasoning and didn’t even have a hint of spice (I thought this was a Mexican place? Not even a bottle of hot sauce in sight) and the pico de gallo lacked lime. The elote was even more disappointing… I don’t even know if you can call it an elote. It had shredded cheese, not even a hint of lime, very little queso fresco, no tajin, and some pineapple puree drizzled on top… I took two bites and said absolutely not (heart shattered because I LOVE elote). I took a bite of my husbands burrito which was okay… (he got to build it himself so that’s the only thing I can say was okay). He wasn’t too thrilled about it. The chips and queso are literally Tostitos with Tostitos jar queso. Overall we paid $70 for 4 items and 2 beers, which is the most gut wrenching thing of all. I would’ve been happier with Chipotle or Lime for that price. As MS locals, I’m sad to say we won’t be returning. Maybe if they completely changed their menu, I’d consider trying again, but right now it’s just not worth it.
