To this spicy meat mixture, we add grilled white onion and sweet grilled pineapple, it’s finished with cilantro, radish and lime wedge.	$6.50

Taco De Carnitas (C) We start by coating tender pork shoulder in a dry rub of salt, bay leaves and garlic; Letting it cure for at least 24 hr hours. After its cured we confit the pork in seasoned Manteca (we love Manteca, if you couldn’t tell). Then, this scrumptious pork is slow braised in a mixture of oranges, Pasilla chiles, Arbol chiles and cinnamon. When plating this yummy taco for your guest, we top this lip-smacking meat with our Housemade Guajillo Serrano Salsa, diced white onion, fresh cilantro, radish and a lime garnish.	$6.00
Taco De Cauliflower (C)	$5.00
Taco De Chorizo (C) Its packed with two styles of spicy Chorizo sausage, our house-made Ground Chorizo sausage and Chorizo links we cut into half-moon pieces. From there, we keep piling on the goodness. That spicy chorizo gets sautéed with diced skin-on white potatoes and roasted Poblano peppers. We top this mixture with our Housemade Guajillo Serrano salsa, Pepitos, toasted sesame seeds, shredded Chihuahua Cheese, diced white onion, cilantro, radish and of course, a lime!	$6.00

Tostada De Mexico The Tostada de Hongos (hongos means mushroom) is a tasty treat served on a piled high on a crispy, house-made corn tortilla. We top that crispy shell with our savory mushroom mix (comprised of button and shitake mushrooms), stewed with onion, garlic, tomatoes and jalapenos. Piled high on that are succulent greens(marinated in our house-made Cilantro-Lime vinaigrette), savory goat cheese, Salsa Fresca, roasted poblano peppers and finished with cilantro, and radish. The tostada is held in place by our spicy pinto bean spread. LLS – Although the Tostada de Hongos appears vegetarian at first glance with it not containing a protein, but wait, our spicy pinto bean spread makes it not so. This dish can easily be made vegetarian by swapping the bean spread with our fresh, house-made Guacamole. To make it vegan friendly, just omit the goat cheese!	$7.00
Taco De Papas Con Rajas (C) Potatoes with roasted poblano peppers and Rajas sauce. This delicious sauce contains queso fresco, cotija cheese, heavy cream and rajas chipotle (or strips of peppers). Its adds a creamy compliment to the crisp potatoes and spicy peppers. Topped off with diced white onions, cotija cheese, sliced radishes and cilantro. Its garnished with a wedge of lime. LLS – The Papas Con Rajas is completely vegetarian but not vegan. If a guest requests no cotija on the Papas ask a follow up question: “Are you vegan or do you by chance have a dairy allergy?? The dairy elements in the Rajas Chipotle are not listed on the menu. Guests who are vegan or have a dairy allergy may think the removal of the cotija cheese will make it a safe option for them.	$5.00
Taco De Papas Vegan (C) The Papas taco can easily be amended to become a vegan option. It is hearty, filling and full of flavor. Roasted poblano peppers and crispy, skin on white potatoes are still the base. Instead of the creamy Rajas Chipotle sauce, we add spicy Salsa Roja to the mix. It adds a ton of great flavor, spice and sauciness. Wait, there’s more! We add our hearty mushroom mix, sprinkle on our spicy fish seasoning (don’t worry – no fish were harmed in the making of the seasoning, it just what we call it and still vegan friendly) and add some fresh sliced cabbage. This taco is then topped with sliced radish, fresh diced white onion, cilantro and a wedge of lime.	$5.50
Taco De Pescado (F) Our Grilled Pescado Taco is given a healthy dose of our spicy fish seasoning and grilled to perfection. Our hearty Crispy Pescado Taco is given a dusting of salt and pepper, dunked in Dos Equis Amber Beer Batter and crisped to a delicious golden brown. Both tacos are served on our house-made corn tortillas and given a healthy portion of our delicious, savoy Chipotle Mayo. Both Crispy and Grilled Pescado Tacos are dressed with a generous portion of fresh cabbage slaw, mixed with crisp shaved red onion, sprinkled with salt and pepper, tossed in our Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette finally topped with cilantro, radish and garnished with a lime wedge. LSS – The Crispy Pescado taco is contains gluten and cannot be amended to be without.	$7.00
Taco De Scorpion Taco The Trinidad Scorpion Pepper was, for 3 years, ranked as the hottest pepper in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records! Bean puree, grilled chicken breast, Scorpion sauce, ghost pepper cheese, jalapeños, habanero slaw, scorpion dust, cilantro and radish, served bean luchador style.	$13.00
Taco Pollo Pibil (C) Chicken thighs are marinated for over 24 hours in our special chicken marinade, which contains achiote paste and habanero, which lends to its spiciness. The Pollo is then prepared in a very Old World way, steamed in banana leaves. This spicy chicken is then topped with pickled red onions, cilantro, radish and lime wedge garnish.	$6.00
Taco Pollo Verde (C) Pollo(or chicken) breast is slow roasted in our delectable New Mexican Green Chile sauce. Though, Chile is in the name, it is mild in flavor and a great option for a guest looking for a less spicy option.

Coke De Mexico 12 oz Glass Bottle Also know as “Mexican Coke” Where It Comes From: No surprise here. Mexican Coke is from—you guessed it—Mexico. What It Is: Believers claim Coke de Mexico is a superior version of its American counterpart for several reasons. Some say it has a superior taste. Some like the cool, glass bottle. And still others claim it isn’t the container, but rather what’s inside. Coke de Mexico’s ingredients include cane sugar rather than the high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) generally used to sweeten the American version. And that is a good thing, according to its admirers.	$3.50

Atmosphere..they are really going rustic here, toilet barely flushed & sink didn’t drain while ants crawled on the wall. All queso flavors were not even slightly good. That was all served for 5 people, no plates or napkins tho so just rough it. Steak was dry w/ a bad flavor and to put a cherry on the cake, let’s get dessert nachos (thinking one edible thing). 15 mins to come out with no ice cream on them. Can we buy a scoop of ice cream. $5.00 for a scoop, 12 min and counting we left w/ a plate full of nachos left on the table and still no ice cream (which we did pay for). Horrible all around. The girls did like their tacos w/ pork & pineapple that’s about it. Save your time & money, go to moes, taco bell, or mighty taco.

Service here was not good. Menus were dirty from previous customers. It took about 20-25 minutes for the waitress to get to my table and I ordered a shrimp iceviche appetizer; about $12, which took about 10 minutes to arrive and for it to be the size of my palm. I’m 5’4 and I have small hands… The tacos I ordered which was about $7 were also small,very dry and not very flavorful(Mind you it was the same size as the shrimp iceviche). Majority of the people here were white as well and I was one of the only few poc here… The water that also came with was regular tap water and the cups were not washed properly since I had to scrape off dried up after wash and lip crust from the rims. There was particles in the water and the silverware that they provided me was still dirty and greasy from previous use or just improper wash.

Deep South and our amazing server Trevor accommodated 15 of us on a Thursday night around 8:30. Everyone had a blast and left happy. The restaurant itself is so neat; we sat outside and even though it was 55° out the heaters they have made it feel like it was a summer night. I will definitely return!

Went for #tacotuesday. Fun atmosphere and tasty tacos. Drinks were lit. Service was splendid. For every $20 you spend, you get to spin a wheel to win free swag. I’ll definitely be going back. For the adventurers out there, try their Scorpion Taco if you dare. Have 911 on speed dial if you are faint hearted. Lol. All in all. I’ll give this place a 10/10.

Tacos in Chorizo and Korean BBQ were absolutely magnificent. The chicken Pilbi I didn’t like to much but it was made well. Just to chunky for me. Pastor Taco pretty good too. Nice staff. Quick take out ordered on site and packed very very carefully and while order correct down to the Salsa. That’s saying something.

Atmosphere is very cool. Huge open patio will be awesome for the summer. The food however was just ‘ok.’ Definitely more of a bar trying to also serve food than a stand alone restaurant.

I am from New York City, living in Buffalo for 4 years. In my quest of finding a good taco place, I went to their Hartel location last night, with my wife. Let me start with our server, she was aggressive to a point where I was feeling scared that she might start yelling at me, which she did, at my wife, for changing table. Now the food, this place sreves good taco for people who have no idea what a taco is. I ordered one stake taco and two “new age” Korean taco, that the server suggested as their good brisket taco. They serve taco with no salad topping or salsa topping. Just few pieces of meat on one tortilla. When I asked the server, she said “that’s taco”, like I have never seen taco before. The stake taco was edible. Their Korean taco is the absolute worst thing, I have ever put in my mouth, I felt like throwing up. Out of two Korean taco I ordered for 14 dollars, I just took one bite form one and left the rest untouched. The server never once tried to resolve the situation. I would give them 0 star if it was an option.
