Come on! How is this place even real?! The food is the freshest. I basically can just stop cooking or buying groceries and just head to Taco Heaven. Beware the nachos — large enough to feed an entire marching band. Sooo good. The guac on the side came in a 16 oz cup!

It was our first visit to Taco Heaven and we’ll definitely be back. The customer service was top notch and the food was fresh and delicious. Z and his family are great and they go the extra mile to make every customer feel welcomed!

Excellent experience! The food was freshly made after our order and the quality & quantity was wonderful. We ate in the front area of the restaurant near the windows close to the serving counter and enjoyed several conversations with the owner Gordo who was attentive and genuinely kind offering samples of other dishes as we enjoyed our experience. We started with the chips and guacamole. The chips were hot and the guacamole was authentic and freshly made. While we were enjoying this, Gordo offered us a sample of the chunky salsa, which was especially good. One of our dishes was the "Pastor Burrito" which was large enough to serve as another meal and truly among the best burritos we've ever eaten. We also had the "Lockport Quesadillas" which were especially good and plentiful. Another sample we had was the horchata which was freshly made and really good. This was our first visit to Taco Heaven and it will not be our last. Well done Gordo and thank you!

Came across here when I went to a local bar, it was my first time here and when I say the customer service was outstanding I truly mean that, the food was so flavorful you can tell it was fresh and made with love and then the owner came and sat down with my and my husband for about an hour. The way they run their business and how good they treat their customers and employees along with the quality of the food is reasons I will make the 25 min drive. Also the competition taco is hands down one of the best tacos I’ve ever had and the strawberry horchata is so amazing, it’s actually fresh and doesn’t leave a sour aftertaste in your mouth like most I’ve had in other places. If you all stumble across this spot please give them a try you won’t be disappointed

The food is absolutely amazing!!!! The steak was so fresh, and full of flavor. The owner; "Z" is definitely about customer service. He came out to check on us multiple times, and made us try the bean taco. I'm a meat eater and this is probably one of the best tacos that I ever had. "Z" said that the bean taco is his recipe, and you can taste the freshness in the taco. Great food "Z" I appreciate the hospitality!!!!!

My partner and his friends ordered for 5 people to go and every single thing was made correctly! Even with substitutions. The staff there were super friendly and accommodating, and very sweet. Haven’t been here since papa joes was in this location and I ADORE what they have done with the place! There is plenty of space and the atmosphere is phenomenal, will definitely be returning to eat and sit down in person with my partner. Happy to have an addition like this in Lockport!
