Eating at Gordo’s Taqueria in Albany was way more than I expected. The moment I walked in, I was hit with the aroma of grilled meat in the air. The place is straight business no frills, small, a real hole-in-the-wall spot. The menu is simple: tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and bowls. And when I tell you Chipotle has nothing on these guys, I mean it. The line is run by four cooks who all look like they could make you the meanest burrito of your life in their sleep. The meat options are limited, but their specialty is the salsa verde meat which I ordered in a burrito. It was sooo good and flavorful I devoured it instantly. So of course, I had to try their tacos next… and that’s when I got blown away. They crisp up the corn tortilla, melt cheese onto it, and then layer on a hefty portion of meat. I kid you not they tasted like something my grandma would’ve made. It took me right back to my childhood, to those moments where her cooking made everything feel perfect. If food can hit you with that kind of nostalgia, you have to try it. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Ordered take-out. Delicious food. Ready in ten minutes while even they were serving customers who were in line to order their food. Street Parking.

It's a small store front kinda restaurant. Minimal seating. A kind of "on the go" experience. Quick assembly style order and go eatery. A "keep the line moving please" set up. Ohhh but the tacos are delicious!!! Overstuffed, full of meat, and if you dare order extra toppings, you'll need a sturdy plate to catch overflow juices and condiments. Pure bliss! My one suggestion... larger taco shells please.

Tell us what you ordered and what it cost. Two or three sentences about one dish is more useful to the next person than a star rating.
