I've been going here for years, and I even drive out of my way 20 min sometimes to get the tacos, usually breakfast. But they serve barbecoa and chili con carne tacos at 9am, and they are some of the best around. Try the flour tortilla when asked.

My favorite place since 9th grade and I am in mid 30s! The spicy beef taco the best! The tortillas and tamales when they have them soooo good! This place is truly a hidden gem!

Ok ya'll, this place was recommended to me by a number of people, but when a family member told me about it I had to try it! The people are Very Kind & Friendly. The food was Authentic & Fantastic! I immediately went back for 2nd(s) The structure is small, it only sits about 7 people total. So most people I witnessed would order take-out. If you want Authentic Mexican food in Denton this is the place to get it! The food will take ya to Mexico & back! Great Job ya'll! Ps. Here is a pic of Menu! Happy Eatin

Came to Denton for a school competiton for my child from SA and was looking for tacos of course! Well, when there's a line, you know it's good! Line was quick and let me tell you, the food was delicious! Took me back to my grandma's mexican cooking with love, flavor and just homemade. Barbacoa taco, Machacado w/egg and pap con chile, Yummm! If I am ever in town again, it will always be one of my stops.

Veronica's has the most authentic tacos with tortillas made from scratch throughout the day. Wonderful menu for breakfast and lunch. I highly recommend the nopalitos and scrambled eggs on flour tortilla.
