I had to try this spot out since I have gotten so many recommendations. It definitely was super good, I got the steak quesadilla, a suadero, tinga de pollo, and pastor taco. All of it was super delicious. I will say be aware they have a 10 euro minimum to use your card. The line is a little bit longer but you get your food almost instantly after. I’ll definitely be back at some point to try the margaritas!

You have to queue to place an order (today on Friday afternoon it took us 15 minutes). But once it's done, the rest of it is super fast. You get your drink right after the cashier and almost the second you occupy a table they call out your name and deliver your food. The stuff are super friendly and fast. The food is good and super affordable. The only downside is the toilet which is not taken care of. And it might be pretty cold in the entrance part of the restaurant. If you get your table there, you might need to keep your jacket on. The place is for a quick bite only but definitely worth it. Paid 16 euros for 5 tacos, cesadilla and a drink

Tacos were delicious we visited two times. I had the pork and steak. It's gets really crowded there is usually a long line but it goes quick.

We had a five-day holiday in Madrid and visited Takos Al Pastor twice. I tried everything from tacos to alambres and quesadillas but the tacos were my favourite. I highly recommend the Arrachera Takos; they’re delicious. For a new beer flavour, try their spicy beer.

Absolutely incredible experience at Takos Al Pastor. I’m from New Mexico, so I have high standards for Mexican flavors, and this place really delivered a true taste of home. * The Food: The tacos were authentic and packed with flavor—especially the al pastor. * The Value: You can't beat the price; it’s rare to find such high-quality food for just €1.50–€4.50 per taco. * Pro Tip: Don’t let the line out the door intimidate you; it moves fast and the service is super efficient. A must-visit in Madrid! They have a wide range of alcohol drinks and beer.
