    Better Taco for a good reason. Stopped in one Thursday night after picking up family from Miami airport, so happy to find this spot. The owner takes pride in his restaurant, friendly great service and staff, and the food and drinks and dessert were excellent. Really loved the extra details like homemade Horchata that wasn’t overly sweet like is common to find in other establishments. The guava cheesecake was just right also, light and refreshing. We loved the birria bowl and street tacos, the smoked plantains were nice touch of Cuban-Mexi fusion. Also liked that the bottled water was 9PH Alkaline water. These are wonderful little details that to me and many others make a BIG difference in the dining experience. The Better Taco really lives up to its name. 👍👍

    This place has great food. The margaritas are well done and the guacamole was fresh. The pricing was not too bad considering the food was fresh and tasted good. It is only 10 minutes from MIA airport.

    The tacos were a little small but pretty good. Guacamole was great, and so was the cheesecake. My only complaint is it was fairly expensive and we asked what pico is and the woman just said "it's pico", and not being familiar with some of the menu names, we weren't sure what to order.

    Awesome customer service. The food choices were great. The portions were great. I really enjoyed my first visit to The Better Taco. My group enjoyed the Taco platter, Nachos plate and a salad. The margaritas were also good. I wouldn't highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to my next visit.
