Taqueria El Lugar: Authentic Mexican Flavor in Tyler, TX

really delicious very good tacos i am very picky when it comes to places like this but i really like the carnesata tacos really good would come back here

Prices high. Food good. Cuisine acceptable. It's only tyler.-/-:///-/ eat her if you want to impress your Yankee visitors!

I grew up in Texas and the El Lugar family has been around for decades. In my opinion the #7 super quesadilla is one of the best quesadillas you will find ANYWHERE!!! The corn chip quesadilla salad is fire also. Plus they make your food from scratch right in front of you! I was in my teens when I first tried the #7. Hooked immediately. Back then there was only one location and now I think they have 5 or 6. Trust me waiting in line is definitely worth it. Do not let that deter you. I don't know their beef recipe but it is meaty goodness. 7 stars out of 5 stars lol. Very friendly service and cute waitresses. Watch out for the green sauce unless you are brave enough.

Anyone who gives this restaurant less than 5 stars is delusional! This is the best food in Tyler! I highly recommend the #7! The service and food is awesome!

I have come to El Lugar off and on for over 20 years. I used to live in Tyler so it was easy to get to but now I detour off the highway so that I can have the most authentic Mexican food in Texas. I would like to single out one or two favorite menu items but that is impossible. I have loved everything I have ever tried. The ingredients are so fresh and the service speedy. This is not a sit down and order from a waiter, this is a order at the counter, wait around a few minutes with my mouth watering kind a place. I am going to make a special trip this weekend!

When I need authentic, I come to El Lugar! When I just want whatever... the "Bell" might work.

Pretty good burrito. My sister picked us up two beef burritos. The green sauce was spicy and amazing. She swears they have the best burritos.
