My Trip to Eh Guey Tacos – Glendale AZ

Eh Guey Tacos is a small Mexican Restaurant located in a Mobil Gas Station on Union Hills Drive in North Glendale Arizona. They offer breakfast plates, breakfast burritos, Tacos (shrimp, cabeza, pastor, quesataco, cactus, pollo, and asada). They also offer tortas, quesadillas, rolled tacos, salads, bowls, and flauntas, enchiladas, and combo plates.

Yes Eh Guey Tacos really is in a gas station. I look up on how to translate Eh Guey Tacos and I can’t say for sure if I translated it correctly but my best guess is that it means…….Hey Tacos Man or Hey Tacos Dude.

They do have some seating inside but most people we saw do take out.

Here is where you order and pick up.

Today we tried-

pollo (chicken) and Shrimp tacos

Chicken and shrimp tacos came in corn double shells that were lightly grilled. The shrimp tacos are presented different from the other tacos with shredded lettuce, cheese, grilled peppers and onions.

cabeza tacos (beef cheek)

We also tried cabeza tacos. You can’t see but the cabeza has some guacamole on it under the onions.

asada tacos

steak tacos

quesataco

What they call a quesotaco. It’s birria beef and cheese. Usually they come with consommé…..not today

We added on a side order of guacamole, rice and beans, and got a few salsas.

Some tacos today were better than others but none were bad…….As you see they are good sized tacos and not all but maybe the average eater can only eat two because of their generous size. Most were average and not bad. We mutually both thought that the chicken taco was one of the stand out tacos here today. It was dark meat tasty moist tender delicious chicken with a lot of flavor to it. The other best my husband thought was the shrimp taco. The shrimp were fresh tasting and prepared perfect. Maybe I am too fussy here but I didn’t care for either beef…(but then again I do note I am normally not a beef person)…..The asada was too chewy for me. I thought the cabeza had a better flavor but was too fatty for me and gave me the heebie jeebies. Rice and beans were average.

That was my trip to Eh Guey Tacos.
