Don Tacha

Wow-​great tacos –friendly people. Authentic taste. Must try.

Excellent tacos, excellent service. Very friendly. The arrachera is so so good! Every time I come I am satisfied. Also a great outdoor seating area, covered and uncovered sections. The covered area has fans for a hot day. Stop in, you won’t be disappointed!

Hungover and looking for a good place to hit the spot and so glad we came here. The burritos are amazing, they grill the meat outside so the scent just adds to the goodness of the food.

we live in the neighborhood and noticed this place opened up a while back. being that it is in the center of a predominantly mexican neighborhood and that there never seemed to be any customers kept us away from trying it sooner. but, our favorite restaurant is a ways away so we decided to finally give this place a try, especially after reading reviews.
we ordered arrachera tacos, which came with beans and cilantro as toppings. maybe we got a bad batch because other reviews claim the beans to be very good, but ours were totally bland and didn’t seem to have much salt let alone any other seasoning. they also tasted like some had burned at the bottom of the pot. the meat was actually tasty. not delicious, but good enough to go back for more (we only ordered one each to sample and there were two of us, plus the husband wanted mexican for dinner and we didn’t want to drive across town to our usual spot). the tacos were also pretty small and we gone in a few bites but ok for the dollar a piece price.
we would go back again, but only when we’re not wanting to drive to our favorite spot and want a quick and cheap bite that’s close to home, and definitely without the beans!

One of the users below said that if they could give this place 6-​STARS, they would. Well, I didn’t quite believe that at first… Long story short… my mind is changed, I am a full-​on-​convert!!!
This place rocks, simple as that. It is everything you want in a walk up taco joint and is very reminiscent of the taco shops you can find in the Tijuana/​San Yisidro area down south. SUPER LEGIT!!!
There are a few basic check marks that one must fill to be a truly authentic outdoor walk-​up taco shop.
This place hits them all, let’s list them!
1. Outdoor patio half covered/​half not-​crucial for those who want to feel the sunshine and the breeze to cool off your burning lips-​post taco smash.
2. Not overly clean, I am immediately suspicious of a taco shop that us too clean… I can’t really explain why… it just makes me feel like they could be spending that time further perfecting their taco game! (This place is definitely clean, do not take me wrong here. You’re good, no worries lol)
3. SMALL AND SIMPLE MENU!!! In my opinion, this is the most important feature. You find this alot in mexico. The most popular shops are the ones with tiny menus, why you ask… Simple! THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE GOOD AT AND THEY KEEP IT AT THAT!!! I wish more places would take a page from this book. So many spots here in Fres-​burg have huge overly complicated-​super long menus in their attempt to appeal to everybody. It always makes me wonder, how many people could possibly be ordering the Spaghetti and meatballs at the burger joint? Further more, those ingrediants aren’t used anywhere else on the menu. So how how fresh could they possibly be?!
Just cut that shit out, downsize your game, and find what it is you do PERFECT. Then stick to that and you can’t lose. That is what these guys have done here!
Long story short.

Quality ingrediants, expertly prepared, and simply arranged. How the hell can you lose?!
What I love most is that they grill, over charcoal, all of their meats!!! (Not sure about the cabeza but all the others are grilled)
So everything is smokey and delicious
All tacos are topped with peruvian beans as well. Which are so creamy!
Salsa is a nicely put together ranchera style salsa (tomatilla, chile de arbol, tomato, etc.) VERY hot!
Oh, and the tacos are HUGE! The size of my hand!
Listen, just come here and stuff your freaking face.
You can thank us Unilocalers later!!!
Outs!!!

If I could give 6 stars for the taste of food and the quality of service I would. So cheap and maybe the best little hole in the wall in Fresno! We got the carne asada tacos with everything on them and they were fantastic, I would honestly say that you need to go here.

The Abodaba (pork) is the best!

This place is awesome. My favorite is the Abodaba… best pork I’ve ever had! I was introduced by a friend and came back the. Next day for more. The meat is much higher quality than I’ve experienced at most places. This place is a must try!

Fresno’s best burrito and it is not even remotely close. Do not be fooled by the modest downtown digs. A perfectly balanced ensemble with fresh, chewy tortilla, perfect beans and rice, lettuce (not the cheaper cabbage), and most crucially, barbecued marinated sirloin steak. The roasted salsa is labor intensive and a perfect compliment to the burrito itself. There are only three items on the soon-​to-​be-​expanding menu and this somewhat hard to access restaurant on one-​way Blackstone. The taste is something like a combination of barbecue and Mexican, which in my book makes it not only delicious, but particularly suited for Fresno’s tastes. An absolutely «do not skip» burrito. No shortcuts. Be prepared to wait a bit (they do all orders one at a time), but it is worth it.

By far the best taqueria/​restaurant here in my neighborhood. Not going to lie, a bit pricey $ 2.50 for a super taco but very filling and worth it. He just opened 5 weeks so if you are looking for a good place that has good tacos with sirloin steak mixed in it this is the spot.

The downtown area is filled with so many choices of restaurants for the lunch hour, but one thing that helps me determine where to eat is how fast I can get in and get out. My friend and I decided to drive around and see who was not swamped, and we saw a newer business called Don Tacha.
As we walked up, we could smell the tempting aroma of the Tri-​Tip on the grill. The menu is very basic: Tacos, burritos, beans, and rice. I ordered a taco with a side of rice & beans and a can of Pepsi, and my friend ordered two tacos. Within a couple minutes, our order was ready. The portions were right for the price and not too large. The tacos were larger than I expected and piled high with toppings, meat, radishes, and peppers. Wow, the tacos melted in my mouth. Everything that was added to the taco complimented each other in such a mouthwatering way. The rice and beans were soft and seasoned very well.
The food tasted like authentic home-​style Mexican cooking, and I know this may sound corny, but I think a lot of love went into the making of the food.
