Pineda Tacos

Excellent food and service! Coming in, there may be a line, but be patient! The food is worth the wait! I love that you can choose from many different meat options in the format you like (tacos, burritos, etc). My favorite dish is the Alambre Mix that has lots of proteins and rice with avocado and tacos. The quesadilla is also cooked and filled well! Sometimes they have specialty tacos (cabeza, lengua) so if you like those, ask if they have them available. There is a salsa, sauce, lime station you can take the sauces you prefer back to your table to enjoy with your order. There is ample seating inside and generally is not too loud for how many people are dining inside.

I hate to downgrade any place but recent history suggests that Pineda has taken a significant turn in the wrong direction. The food has definitely declined in value and quality. My latest large burrito had stringy chicken and few pieces of grilled chicken. In addition it was largely a tasteless mess. The open faced flour taco seemed to taste primarily of raw onion and was small in size.Finally my order of Gaucamole ($5.99) was missing. The argumentative (and admittedly language challenged) person that answered my phone call to report the omission blamed the delivery service. My ultimately futile efforts to explain that the delivery was exactly as picked up from the restaurant, that the issue was not with the delivery but that the ordered Guacamole was originally never placed in the bag by whomever assembled my order, were all for naught.BTW, I wanted to indulge my occasional sweet tooth with an order of Tres Leches but found it was apparently replaced by cheesecake. Alas a sad state of affairs.Accompanying my order were small plastic ramekins of mediocre hot sauce.All-in-All a reasonably filling but in the end an unsatisfying experience. Maybe I happened to place my order on a bad day or perhaps they had a new staff. Regardless and unhappily I will be ordering in the future from alternatives whenever I crave Tex/Mex.

Very fast, to-go authentic Mexican food. The food was hot and packed with meat. Great service. I really liked the self-serve salsa bar. The mild avocado and medium green were delicious and gave my meal some heat. Huge portion and easy menu. Will be going back!

Authentic Mexican food which is delicious and comes with very fast service! This time I tried the two taco combo with rice, beans, tortilla chips and a drink. The steak with onions and barbacoa tacos were excellent as were the variety of salsas to top them.

Pineda is such a hidden gem in Plymouth. Their main location is in Minneapolis off Lake Street, but this is by far my favorite place to get tacos. I've been a frequent here for years and I keep coming back. I prefer this location because parking is a breeze. There is a huge lot and it's way less congested. Service is always prompt and professional. My favorites are the Al Pastor (BBQ pork), Carne Asada (chopper steak), Shredded pork, Pork in Green Sauce, and Barbacoa. I've had their chicken options but found them to be a little bland and dry. The rice and beans are pretty tasty. Nothing too spectacular but it makes the meal whole. They have a few different salsas to try from and they're made fresh in house! They're open 7 days a week 10am-10pm so anytime is a good time for tacos!

No frills Mexican food. They have a variety of combo meals, all of which seem to come with chips and a beverage. Lots of options for meat and salsa. I went with a very simple 3 taco meal, with Chipotle chicken. It was yummy, but the sauce was very messy. Also tried a medium red salsa, green avocado salsa, and mild with the chips. The green avocado was my favorite with just a slight kick. Was also very fast at lunch time.

I love Pineda tacos! The variety means there's something for everyone, and I appreciate the option to customize whatever you want. I absolutely love the little condiment bar and salsa bar that they have in the restaurant so you can add whatever you want to your dish! Service is so fast and the quality of the food is so good, and every time we come in, it's such a fun place to be!! there's always a place to sit and more than enough seating! Highly recommend this place!!

This place has went down hill!! Food is nasty and I wouldn't recommend it! Low quality!

Little hole in the wall taco place. I had high hopes after reading the reviews. Also the salsa bar looked pretty great. I got the Al pastor tacos, rice, and beans. Everything was pretty bland. The beans tasted like they came from a can with no seasoning. Then I got pretty bad food poisoning for a couple days. Not worth the risk.

More Mexican than the chain places for about the same cost. The breakfasts are a deal. And delicious.
