Danny's Tacos & Grill

I have been coming here for 10+ years and I refuse to eat anyone else's tacos! The way Alma and Danny make you feel like family is unmatched! The food is amazing!!! I love it here! Go try Danny's Tacos! You won't be disappointed

I was skeptical about a gas station taqueria but this place is my go to for lunch now. I usually just ask Danny to make me whatever he wants and pay and am never disappointed. Would recommend the mojado burrito, tacos al pastor, and all of their guisados

As any frequent reviewer of my posts know, I like to periodically (annually) re-review my reviews as things can change. Sometimes businesses close, get bad, or sometimes, better. This is one of those posts. Yes, I know I've been bad about checking in, but I just had a son, so I've been a bit busy. Plus, since the Pandemic, we've been getting deliveries from here more than actually picking stuff up.I. STILL. LOVE. THIS. PLACE.If I like you, I've told you about this place. If you're from out of town, I've taken you here. If you've asked me for a taco recommendation, I've told you about this place. I've had tacos all over the country, and I still say that Danny's is the best. So, what do you think is on the top of my list now that I'm back from Boston, Danny's!While Danny's Tacos & Grill is in a gas station, do NOT let that keep you from checking this place out. In my humble opinion, Danny's has the best authentic Mexican food in town.Be warned though, Danny's Tacos & Grill is a small place with a small crew (three people, maybe), and it is popular. As they have such a small crew, they normally only have one person on duty, with the occasional two or three person crew for busy times. This small crew style is both good and bad.For the bad, this means long wait times. For example, if you're looking for tamales, you'll generally have to call ahead, maybe even days ahead. They're worth it and better than your grandma's, sorry. If you get there when there are others waiting, you may have a long wait to get your food, especially if only one person is taking orders and cooking. You'll have to wait for them to cook that person's food, clean up, take your order, and then cook your order. At peak times, they have a bit more of an assembly line going. I came during lunch one time to pick up some tamales, and they seemed to be going pretty quick. But, they had two or three people there.The good side to such a small shop is that your food is getting personal attention. It really feels like you're going into someone's home, and they are making your food for you, hot and fresh. I love that.That brings me to the customer service in this place. Danny and his crew love what they do, and they want you to as well. If you have questions, ask. If you want a recommendation, ask. And, if they ever mess up, Danny will fix it. They once accidentally sold my tamale order because they had a huge order, and he had someone drive another batch to my house the next day!! You are not going to get that kind of service from anywhere else.Now, on to the food. Their tamales and tacos may be the best I've ever had and certainly some of the best in town. Again, better than your grandma's. Their green sauce is mind blowing, and it makes everything even better. Oh, and the beans, they're pretty amazing too as they are both equal parts creamy and flavorful. I normally do not mention beans, but Danny somehow has managed to make me like beans, which that alone is pretty incredible. I've had just about everything on the menu and never been disappointed. Though, I always find myself coming back for the tacos and tamales.I agree with some of the other reviewers that the rice lacks flavor, but I always assumed the rice was just for the sauce to be poured on, to reduce some of the heat from the food, or to thicken up the beans. Sometimes, the beans are too thin, and the rice is the perfect thickening agent without distorting their flavor. I never really looked at the rice as a stand-alone food, but more of a condiment for the rest of the food. I agree that the food does tend to be more on the spicy side, but for me, I love that too.I do have some pro tips though. Mix the rice and beans with some green sauce. This mixture is a great standalone addition, and it tastes great on the tacos as well (with more green sauce, of course). Start off with the tacos and tamales (if they have some left) before moving on to anything else. These two items are the stars. Once you've had these, then move on to the rest of the menu. Explore the menu because there are some hidden gems. Get to know Danny and become a regular! He just comes up with new stuff because he loves his food. If you're a regular, he'll offer you some. He even makes a ghost pepper sauce that will wreck you (in a good way).Oh, don't forget to ask for extra green sauce because they never include enough. Have I mentioned the green sauce? It's awesome. As for price, this place is crazy cheap for the quality and amount of food you get.Do I recommend this place? Yes. Even if you live on the other end of town, get your butt here!

Reviews about customer service are definitely true, RUDE. I asked what does the burrito come with and she was very disrespectful in response (An old lady who looks sweet but IS NOT)Hard to support small local businesses when they treat customers like $#!t*UPDATED*Food itself was good, the owner himself handed my food & he seemed nice & funny.His wife (I assume) on the other hand is going to bring him down. She should not be handling customers.3 Starts, would've been 5 if that lady wasn't so rude.

Awesome food and professional service. The employees are very polite and go beyond what is necessary to make one feel appreciated

Located inside a shell gas station , authentic Mexican food to go or eat in a few tables inside the store .. super delicious food

Always amazing food! We have had all the tacos and tamales.....Tough to pick a favorite. Always friendly and cooked with love.

Danny's is always a hit! Don't let the gas station front fool you, the food is amazing! Danny is very nice and helpful!

Been coming here for a minute and gotta say it's always great. From the times where they have everything and you sit down and devour the tacos to when they only have half a tortilla and one singular baked bean left, it's always a hit. Just remember if you actually want to eat here you have to go before 12 or you'll be eating nothing but the place and some ice lmaoo

They never have full menu availableFood is mediocre at best. Would not recommend to anyone that likes good food
