This place is so close to our house and we finally grabbed some food last night which was amazing! It's a late night taco spot with a wide variety of different food options. I got the quesabirria tacos with consome and the meat was delicious with a lot of flavor. My boyfriend got the Al pastor alambre which was full of flavor. We both got elote which hit the spot per usual. To end the meal we each got a churro, super soft in the inside. Inside was a cute ambiance with a full house of customers, which is always a good thing. The service was efficient as we ordered to go and it was ready as soon as we got there. We will definitely be back as it's so close to the house and the food was amazing.

Taqueria is located on the corner and has parking in the back which is convenient. It might sketchy neighborhood for some however I feel pretty safe. its across from a liquor store and laundry mat. Parking lot is small yet always available 1 hour spots for the restaurant. Food 4/5 Elotes with lime are my go to! One of my favorite spots. Ambiance: Has lots of great seating, natural lighting, window views to the street life and music. Bathroom requires a code, isn't the cleanliest or filthiest I've witnessed however it'll do. Service: Always great service, greets me quickly- whether I dine in or order beforehand.Cost 4/5Affordable with lots of selections however with inflation the cost of one Elotes is now $4.94. Total $10.00 for 2 Elotes. Overall 5/5 Its a great spot!

I was in this neighbourhood to check out the Winter Block Party along W. Lake Street a few weeks ago. There was a food truck selling tacos and more. However, the lineup was long. Across the street was Taqueria Los Ocampo. It had places to sit down and eat. It was time for dinner for me, so I decided to come here.It's not completely clear when you first walk in as to what you need to do. A couple was ahead of me and they were also clueless. You have to walk past the kitchen area where you think you'd place your order (there's a long menu there). There's a small station on the left of the kitchen with a couple of menus behind the counter where you place your order.When it was my turn to order, two women were speaking Spanish to each other. Their conversation seemed far more important than asking me what I wanted to order. So, two minutes later, they were ready to take my order. I got these items:- Pineapple Jarritos- Spicy chicken taco- ChurrascoI paid with a credit card. It was fine.I said that I was dining in. One of the women said that I could take a seat. I ended up sitting at a booth. I got a receipt with a number.My number was called out perhaps fifteen minutes later. I had received my pineapple Jarritos first, so I enjoyed sipping on it. It was cold and delicious.Once I heard my number, I didn't know where to pick it up. I went to the place where I had placed my order.To my dismay, another woman came with my food packed up as if I had ordered takeout. Um, no. I was dining in. I think the conversation between the two women was stuck in their minds that my request for dining in was ignored.I still took everything and sat back at the booth to eat.The spicy taco was a special $2 this Thursday night. I enjoyed it. The spicy chicken was yummy, although there could have been more of it. There was cilantro, tomatoes, and onions on top. There were two soft taco shells. Yum.I got the churrasco mainly because the fried egg intrigued me. It had rice, refried beans, sliced avocado, deep-fried potato wedges, a thin beef steak, and a bunch of tortillas.The tortillas were not yummy. They were hot and bendable, but they lacked interest or flavour. Even adding some of the stuff from my churrasco in a tortilla didn't do a thing. I ended up leaving them alone.I loved the refried beans, rice, and avocados. The egg was over-hard. I would have preferred the yolks more runny, but it was fine. The pounded beef was so tough to cut through with a plastic knife, let alone eat. When I could chew parts of it, it was flavourful.I'd come back for tacos and some sides, but it wasn't my favourite place for Mexican food. I have had better. More attention to customers and their experience coming here to place orders needs improvement.(470)

Late night menu hit the spot. The music is also a vibe. The service is quick. Great drunk food. I got nothing else to add.

This is a good taco spot. They tacos themselves are really good and flavorful. Tortillas and ingredients seemed fresh. I was not a huge fan of their salsas and the rice. The flavor of the rice was decent actually, but I just don't prefer it prepared however they do it. There's always pepitas in it which I've never heard of before. But if you're into that cool. The beans were good. I would come back and try a few more things to get a better idea of my feelings. It's nice there's a small lot. Helps a lot in this busy area.

I ordered two Huarache (one shredded chicken and one Mexican style pork) to go through DoorDash. I put my order in a few hours ahead of time, but it still arrived warm so that was a huge plus! The order came with four (four!!!) different dip options which was super cool. The pros: HUGE. You definitely only need one per person. The meat was very well seasoned and covered in toppings. I'd definitely order the pork one again!!The cons: this is pretty greasy (but that's pretty typical of this dish). The real unfortunate part for me was that all four of the sauces were not great. Three of them were way too spicy (and I have a low spice tolerance so take that with a grain of salt) and the 4th was a cilantro sauce which I am not a fan of at all. None of this is really the fault of the restaurant so I won't go too hard on it, but maybe one of the sauces could be creamy? Just a thought. Anyway, I'd definitely order these again!

You can not go wrong with Taqueria Los Ocampos- big delicious portions at great prices and the salsa verde is amazing (ask for extra!)! i've had the tacos (lengua, quesabirria, carnitas, asada, etc) and all are fantastic every time plus the consume that comes with the quesabirria is so flavorful and comes piping hot. The burrito meal combos are HUGE and comes with chips and guac. You can definitely make 2-3 meals with them. The menudo is also delicious. Overall, i would highly recommend a visit.

Holy moly. The pumpkin flower (? I think this was their translation) tacos at the Minneapolis location are so, so, so divine. They're wonderfully soft, warm, and delicately diverse, with lots of cooked veggies and many good--i think house-made--salsas. Definitely get the calabaza tacos if you see them available!!

Ordered food on their website for pickup on Wednesday night 04/27/22 to pick up at noon on the 28th for our office. 8 items at over $100 worth of food. Getting ready to leave to pickup food and I get an email that my order was canceled by the restaurant. No explanation or anything. What a joke. Why accept my order let alone wait to the last minute before canceling.

Ericka is my favorite server! Thurs-Sun their tacos have never failed not to be AMAZING. Especially when she's working! They have the Best Tacos Ive ever personally had and in Minnesota. While uptown is uptown, you know where to be; this is a nice spot to come with your friends. We're obsessed with their Elotes, Quesabirria, Horchata, and most of all their TACOS!!
