You can also indulge in heart-shaped taco platters, perfect for sharing or treating yourself to a fiesta at home, with prices starting from $19.99.

Tacos El Único doesn’t stop at tacos. Their tortas are a remarkable revelation. The Torta Telera, filled with your choice of meat, beans, and fresh toppings, beckons at $13.49. Opt for the Breakfast Torta, a delightful morning treat with a mini telera roll at $9.75, featuring grilled eggs and guacamole — a flavorful way to kickstart your day.

If you’re a cheese lover, the Quesadillas are a must-try. A crispy 12-inch flour tortilla filled with Jack cheese starts at $7.55, and you can add meat for a mere $11.05. The combination of gooey cheese and perfectly grilled tortillas is pure bliss.

My personal favorite? The roasted chicken paired with their delightful rice. There’s something magical about the way the chicken drippings meld with the rice pilaf, creating a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate. No wonder customers like Roo M. are raving about it!

Before you dive in, just a tip: watch out for the creamy garlic dip that packs a surprising punch! It’s delicious, but approaching it like a butter might lead to a pleasantly jolting experience.
