Taqueria La Promesa: A Flavorful Taco Haven in Pharr, TX

Always has great deals For barbecued plates the taste is great and so are the prices. Great if you don't feel like firing up the grill.

It was hella HOT in there, they need to upgrade their a/c, food was much better then expected, but they also need to hire someone else. There was only one girl doing take outs, cashier, waitress and cleaning. We got the parrillada for 8 for $90. It came with rice, beans, and tortillas. The beans were not fully cooked, everything else was okay.

I highly recommend this place to everyone who loves tacos. This is definitely one place you want to go try out. The tacos de Carne Asada are so good that we have gone there three times in one week. The tacos are extremely well served, full of meat that is cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Every order comes with a side of charro beans, grilled onions, pico de gallo, lemons, salsa verde & salsa roja. We ordered the tacos in flour tortillas which are homemade. After the first bite, you will also fall in love with these tacos. The baked potato is cooked well, served with lots of butter, cheese, and sourcream. The baked potato is big enough for two people to share it.

I enjoyed the "pollo asado" good amount of food on their serving plates. The night I visited it seemed like a slow night. Service was just OK. Carne asada or bistec, fajita can't say the difference between the meats. Beans preparados were very good. I don't like the fact of charging additional fees because paying with a card. I feel that the business itself doesn't make enough money that they need to charge fees to their customers to make their profit. I understand they want all customers to pay with cash. But it's ridiculous to charge additional fees to card payment customers just because their bank might charge them fees. By the way, usually the fees they charged is higher than the bank fees that they usually charges them.

Omg this chicken is the best of the west I asked a plate of short ribs but they weren’t that good .. but the chicken.. you can bet is juicy and delicious!! The waitress were so kind as well

Excited to try out this new joint, not what I expected, NO cilantro or cebolla on the tacos . First strike . The reason for this is because they give you a small side of pico, but unfortunately for me the texture & taste of this side is a couple days old, but the meat is acceptable . Second strike was the expected time frame given, 20 min which turned out to be an ore like 30 min. Third an final is the pricing, for roughly 2 orders & 2 drinks and aguacate add on is in my opinion not the average cost, but I believe if they came with fresh cilantro & cebolla the pricing is just right. Don't forget the cebolla asada on the side Enjoy!!!

Clean area friendly staff good food
