Cafe Aroma

this restaurant is epic. super homie vibes and amazing service. i ordered al pastor, asada, and chicken tacos, and the al pastor was freaking delicious and definitely my fav. overall though, all the tacos where consistently gas and i would recommend this as one of the best mexican spots i've had in louisville.

Had this place on my list for a while! We ordered for lunch then came to pick up.It looks like they also sell snacks, drinks, a few other groceries, and hats. It's a small space but it wasn't busy when we came. There were booths open inside and a picnic table with two guys sitting outside.My friends got tacos. Carne asada, pollo, and chorizo. They thought they were decent. The pollo and carne asada were a bit dry. My sister thought the chorizo was the best out of the others. The salsa and sour cream helped though. The salsa was very spicy! But super good and flavorful. Loved it!I got a carne asada burrito. It was large! I only ate half. It had rice, cheese, beans, lettuce. It wasn't bad. But the carne asada was a bit dry for me too though the filling helped to combat that.Prices werent bad though. $11 for the burrito and $4 per taco isn't terrible for inflation.Parking was a little odd. They share the parking lot with other businesses. There were lots of spots open but it's not a large lot. It could get filled pretty fast.

Food is excellent, portions are big, prices are not high at all. I love their tacos, tortas , I consider myself a good connoisseur of Mexican food since I am. Mexican born and raised in Mexico City. That is why also only mentioned tacos and tortas. Burritos were introduced into my diet until later in life. I would say that their flavor still awesome. Their service is the best I have experienced in the US after 30 years. They are always smiling and welcoming. I love that place. It's a diamond in the rough!!!

Ordered tacos here and it's pretty good! Fast, affordable, and easy. I'd order here again!

Great authentic Mexican. Simple and done right. I had 2 chicken tacos with onion & cilantro on corn tortillas; squeeze bottles of hot sauce and a cilantro crema were brought to the table. Service was very friendly, the place is very casual and small. Looking forward to going back soon (and perusing the small selection of Mexican condiments/groceries they have)! (Tab for 2 tacos + soda was just over $7 - can't beat that.)

Delicious, fast, authentic, and affordable. Love this awesome family owned cafe. Very friendly service as well.

Cafe Aroma is a little eatery located in a small building which is also a small grocery. And its all just...OK. Everything is geared to a very bland, white person palate.The beef nachos were just ground beef with some standard queso, tomato and lettuce. No peppers? no salsa? No cotija? Nope, nothing to give it a little oomphMy chorizo quesadilla was OK but the chorizo was dry and not spiced in any way, so it was basically ground beef. I did borrow some hot sauce from the next table and that helped it immensely, but nothing had been given or offered when I was served.Its just OK and fine and perfectly acceptable for 90% of the Louisville population, but I will continue to seek out more authentic Mexican cuisine

Called in a pick up order on my way to work-quesadillas and tostadas. There was a little bit of a wait and it was a little awkward (as is everything right now) but it was worth it. The crowd started gathering to pick up their food when I was waiting so I figured I was at the right place to get good food. One of the gentlemen waiting asked me if I had eaten there before and I told him it was my first time and he said it was really good. And he was not lying. We also ordered cheese dip, which I requested because it is not on the menu online. So good.Large chunks of beef and fresh toppings. The cheese dip has the right amount of spice and they give you a huge container of it. One serving would have been good enough for sharing but I am not sharing anything! The online menu states an order of tostados is two and I received four. There were a little messy but only because they were packed full of toppings. I am glad this is close to my home.

I doubt you'd be able to find less expensive tacos ($2.50-ish) anywhere within the 264 perimeter, and I'm also certain you'd have to head a few miles out on Preston Hwy to find a taqueria/bodega with this sort of authentic look-and-feel (which, admittedly, isn't for everyone). Also, going a step beyond being a mom-and-pop, this is a full family affair: I was waited on by the ten(ish)-year-old son, and the mom brought out my food with one hand while carry her toddler in the other.All of the above is sufficiently charming, and my chicken tacos (street-style and minimally adorned) and rice/beans were tasty enough, but weren't quite as hot and fresh as I'm used to at my favorite spots (Panchito's and Taco City Louisville). Regardless, I'm a fan, and it's possible the small gaps in quality would be remedied on a second visit.

very good food in the señoritas are very pretty, there's nothing like authentic Mexican food I could eat it every day don't change anything
