"Excellente"

- L G.

"Yo, gas station tacos are somehow always better than restaurant.. this place is a hidden gem! Yes its in the gas station but Taquito Potosino is the real deal -- no frills, just straight-up fire tacos. Service is excellent and very clean. I had the carne asada and al pastor, and both were on point. The tortillas taste homemade, the meat is juicy, and the green salsa? Dangerous in the best way. Super chill vibes, friendly folks behind the counter, and the food comes out quick. If you're craving authentic Mexican street food, this is where you wanna be. Don't sleep on it. if you're anywhere close to Buford, do not miss a chance to have some of the best tacos in this area and that is no cap."

"This authentic Mexican restaurant in Chevron made me realize how Americanized our Mexican restaurants truly are. Ruined me! Lol. Absolutely perfect flavor. I get 1 steak all the way, and 1 steak naked. I love the Verde (green) sauce, too. Everything is super fresh, they have the proper cheese and grilled steak is perfection. I am happy my bf found this true gem!"

- Christina P.

"A hole in the wall restaurant nestled at the back of an unassuming gas station, Taquito Potosino is a must try. Don't let the location fool you - the food is fresh, cheap, generously portioned, and delicious. My favorite item is the steak burrito - it's massive, the meat is tender, and somehow it's only $9. Don't come here expecting a decadent meal - the food is simple, a bit greasy, and the atmosphere is well... gas station, but I still find myself coming back for more."

- David

"Woah! This gas station taco spot is definitely my daily go to for breakfast and lunch. It's fresh, fast, convenient and delicious. Oh....I forgot to mention...I eat here at least 3 days a week. I also order without tortillas and use my own zero carb tortillas "

"One of the best hole in the wall spots. I think everything is great. I saw other people ordering all sorts of items. Recommend paying with cash, if you have a credit card you just need to pay at the front counter (gas station part)."

- Alex F.

"$7.50 I'm 2-12-24 gets you a massive burrito, probably best I have ever had. Gotta get their jalapenos sauce"
