A great place to get your tacos if you’re someone that understands Taco Momma is not a taco. 👌🏻 Great tacos, tortas, etc.

Gordos has the absolute best authentic Mexican food in Birmingham! Everything on the taqueria menu is delicious. On the weekends they also serve up authentic Tacos Al Pastor sliced fresh off of the meat tornado. The market has a huge selection of great Mexican products and fresh produce. The bakery has tons of delicious pastries. If I could pick one place to eat and eat until I exploded this would be the place! What a way to go!

Chimichanga al pastor, try it, love it. The lady who works the register on point and great

Only place that makes me feel back in Mexico.This is the place to eat if you want great Mexican food. I’ve loved everything that I’ve tried. Their carnitas and pozole are 10/10!

It’s been a while since I’ve left a review anywhere, but this place was definitely an exception.The food is so flavorful, and filling that it’s easy to eat it all in one sitting, but get any more than one thing, and you’ll have some difficulty putting it all down because you end up as Gordo “Fat” and Happy really quick, after the first, second, third, etc. bite!I’m from Arizona, and it’s not often you find a place within a location that serves as authentic, cuisine from as close to home as you can, all the way out here in Birmingham, AL.I may not visit B’Ham often, but next time I stop through, you know where to find me!Kudos to all of you at Gordos!

Great Mexican food, fairly priced. Stuff friendly and very helpful. Breakfast visit.

The cashier at the dining room doesnt understand quite well English, if you dont speak Spanish it takes a little bit to understand each other but she tries to do her effort, food is good .

Great food! Will be going back.

This place is awesome. They give you the basic taco you want on two soft corn tortillas and you add the extras. Best tacos I have had in Birmingham. Will be going back. Price is easy on the wallet too.

Very authentic I personally enjoyed my experience dining there. There is a language barrier at this location Either know how to read the menu or know how to speak Spanish, I have not heard good reviews from other Latina locals who refuse to ever eat there againPhoto : ASADA TORTAS

I dont know the name for the Mexican man that works there but he was there Saturday and god bless him he always pffer the best service and treat customers the right way

Good tacos and spicy salsa

Very interesting place!

Food and customer service was great

Selection extremely limited. What I purchased was delicious.

Best, authentic tacos ever, especially al pastor (Saturdays only). Tortas and burritos are ridiculously generous and you have to stop in the bakery after your main course. Staff is friendly and service is quick but be warned this place is usually busy! Staff is bilingual so if you don’t speak Spanish, don’t let that stop you from going to Gordo’s.

Its a hole in the wall but the best Mexican food Ive had in the BHam area.. its good for Chicago Mexican.

I wasnt expecting to find a true Mexican restaurant in Alabama but I was pleasantly surprised.

I went in on a sat morning, there was a line but worth the wait, took less than 5mins to place my order. I ordered the small posole and a large togo, bill came out to right under $20. The posole itself was great, a tad bit salty for my taste but after adding lime and toppings, balanced out. Staff was very friendly, I speak Spanish so everything was ordered in Spanish, Im sure they speak English. Definitely going back to try their tacos, they looked incredibly good. Very authentic mexican vibes, highly recommend!

What a pleasant and much needed surprise Gordos has been. From my first phone conversation they were welcoming and accommodating and eager to serve their customer in any way they could. When I visited their store front to pick up my order every employee greeted me and welcomed me to their place. It was clean and fresh and felt like a village grocery store with its glass front meat display, fresh produce and shelves lined with provisions. I even received a follow up phone call yesterday asking how I enjoyed my order of breakfast tacos. This is the kind of business you want to see prosper and grow. Thanks for brightening my day.

We made a cake order for a birthday and they said they didn’t make it

Being Mexican working in Vincent, Alabama I can say its well worth the drive. Feels like a little Mexico there. Food is delicious. Going back next weekend.

Honestly everything about this place is just great. Restaurant is a plus the store has good selection on grocery that one needs. The bakery is 100% authentic in my book, on many events I have ordered cakes. Wedding cake, birthday, baby shower and so on sometimes just for the heck of it we order a cake because its that good. so yes order from this place!!

Best tacos in town. Compare them to a fancy place like El Barrio. Gordo’s taste better and cost a quarter of the price

Good service and quick ordering a 3 milk cakes

Great AUTHENTIC spot.

Amazing 😋

I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a cup of coffee! Went back to order another breakfast sandwich same kind i ordered before, & was charged more for the sandwich the second time around than i paid with the breakfast & coffee the first time! Didnt say anything, I knew why! I just smile tipped them & i will never return! Great food though!

Authentic Mexican cafe and bakery with great prices. A cornerstone of the community. Not for Taco Bell fans... This is a taste of the varrio 🇲🇽

One of the best and authentic taco places in Birmingham!

The food was so delicious and was served so fast! Definitely try it out! Not expensive at all. They treat you so good!

Counter service but excellent food. This mom and pop grocery offers a good selection of traditional south of the border eats. The counter service is no frills but the servings are substantial. The only reason this isnt 5 stars is the limited seating and no water available on the day we visited. I would happily return it despite this.

Best taco spot in town...

Amazing tacos and delicious pastries!

Yummy $2 tacos, warm casual atmosphere, and nice people. Gets kinda loud sometimes, but they have a big porch to eat outside. The bakery and store attached are also great.

Authentic Mexican food. Forgot to take a picture but lots of food for the price. Very well seasoned meat. Excellent taste. LOVE IT

Great service... Great food... If you really want to know how tacos taste in Mexico this is the place... The best part of the store is the bakery, they have a huge selection of pastries... If you have a sweet tooth this is paradise...

Nice place good person

No one in the store was wearing there face mask and they asked their customers to where one

All of the greatness youll find at a taco truck in a bar-style eat-in environment. The Al Pastor is the best Ive ever had, and the staff is super friendly. Not only does the restaurant serve street food, but the bakery has plenty of yummy desserts. Prices are reasonable, too.

Great food and stafff give this place a try they have AUTENTIC Mexican food .Menudo is my favorite dish there 😋They have a grocery store and a bakery there as well I love this place

Good food but they dont always have what you want.

Best al pastor (spit-grilled pork) tacos. Attached is a bakery with the freshest bolillos (baguette) and 3 leches (3 milk cake).

Great carneceria, good produce, Milagro tortillas, super nice people!

Authentic Mexican food - no Tex-Mex here. Just no frills great Mexican food!

Best Mexican food around!!! Love the market and the bakery as well. Their homemade tortillas are SOOOO good!!

Those people know how to cook Mexican food 2 👍

This is where I go in Birmingham to get my favorite Mexican food. I love this place. Have had nothing bad. Plus the market and bakery are terrific.

Real Mexican food, great taste! You will enjoy all that they offer if Mexican is what you are looking for.I got a huarache, fresh and good!The kids had a burrito really good as well.They have a bakery and we tried the peach tres leches, fresh and very distinct from what I had try before.

This is my favorite Mexican food spot by far. The food is incredible, every ingredient is quality (especially the meats!) and its always prepared very well. The staff is also awesome, great people that do a great job. I try to come here for lunch at least once a week, never disappointed!

Great food

Food is delicious and fair priced

Bread made fresh every day, go get your favorite breads...

Delicious food! Would be helpful to know a little Spanish when coming in, but if you dont then it wont put a damper on the eating experience. The meat is deliciously tender and as fresh as fresh can be!

Great, authentic Mexican food. Plus there is a fantastic bakery attached, as well as a small store with good produce selection if you are cooking Mexican at home. Love this place!

The real deal for Mexican and South Western food. Lots of choices of meats and sauces. All tasty. Plus a nice market and pastry. Will return for sure.

Bakery, groceries,and food,really good

Anytime Im near Gordos Ill stop in for something out of the bakery,resturant or market the tongue tacos are fricken awesome

The restaurant is awesome and the food is great and it comes at a very low price. This is a good lunch place

Best tacos ive had in Birmingham area. They also have a better variety of meats to choose from, with authenticity.

Good place to shop and eat

Its a good place to get a meal, but the food can sometimes be greasy. The service is great though. They have a market and a bakery which are cool.

Great tacos and u can buy it by the pound

Awesome place. Very friendly staff and crew. I highly recommend.

This is a small local Mexican restaurant that serves simple delicious food. There is also a bakery and a grocery store. The bakery is upstairs and the grocery store is downstairs. The prices are reasonable.

Authentic place for delicious tacos. Im vegetarian so I get egg tacos. theres a toppings/ salsa bar. they do not fool around with their salsas. try them cautiously or youll have steam coming out of your ears! I also LOVE the pasteleria next door. they have a huge selection of tempting desserts that are delicious without being overly sweet. theres even outdoor seating.

Awesome food and fun enjoyable atmosphere.

Worst service the cake don’t even look like the picture. This is second time I had bad experience. Never again

The steak burrito was big. I ate it all.Great COOK.

I order tres leches cake form this place for almost every events. The cake here is really awesome.

Good food just need to upgrade tortillas they fall off easily they get stuck to your hand

When I got there, there was this rancid smell. The Burrito they gave me was poorly made. The tacos were really good though. The bathroom were nasty with mold. Overall a bad experience.

Love their tres leches cake and bakery

THE place to go for genuine Mexican food. You can tell because the place is always full of real live Mexicans eating there. Gringos like myself are more than welcome, however. Love it.

Fast service, large servings, low prices

They dont know how to make Mexican food here for some reason

El pastel de tres leches is on point. (So is the rest of the food tbh)

Awesome

Very friendly staff. The al pastor is the best in the city. We finally found authentic gorditas!

Great Food!! Good Place to get authentic Mexican food!!

I love their cakes and they have plenty of products for Spanish cooking. A great store, restaurant and bakery!!!!!

Baller torta and dope as heck chimichangas. Defs recommend this place. The bakery also looked pretty nice.

Been eating here for years. The lengua taco is the best I have ever had. Authentic and good.

Bakery, Market, and Grill - This place has a very high reputation with my friends and me. Food from the grill is genuine Mexican cuisine that will make your mouth water the second you walk through the door. Staff is polite and kind, food is ready at taco truck speeds, and the place is kept pretty clean. The Bakery is a delight too: competitively priced goods that taste so good you feel like a kid in a sweetshop. Cant speak for the Market section of the place too much as I mainly go for the Bakery and Grill. Bakery Items are paid for in the Market. Overall I really love this place and I eat here whenever Im in the area.Steak Tortas are to die for!

Good Mexican food very authentic, staff are friendly just had very hard time communicating

Great food. Big portions. Super friendly staff.

Best place ever especially the bread 😍

This place is the bomb! Only place in Homewood to get legit street tacos, Gorditas, tortas etc. Great for lunch, dinner can be hit or miss

The people are courteous and the food is so much you cant eat all. Better than Taco Bell!!!!

The best gorditas. Cant wait to get back.

The best authentic Mexican in Birmingham. Try the horchata!

This place was dirty. Pan where they keep the food was crusty looks like they never clean it. Very greasy. Never go back again.

This place has a special meaning to me. It was the last place me and my buddy ate before he passed away. Love the tacos.

Too many roaches crawling everywhere,and people attitude has to change.

Tasty tacos and nice people

Good authentic mexican food.

Great taste and choice of tacos! Also Laura and Salvador, my wife and I cant thank you enough for donating the whole roll of butcher paper to us and Brown Elementary for our Hispanic Heritage Month celebration!!! After calling five other stores, youre the only ones who came through and saved the day! Muchisimas gracias!

The food in this place is very good

Best authentic Mexican/tacos in Birmingham

Gordos is an amazing authentic taqueria and carniceria with some of the most meats for tacos and tortas. Barbacoa, pastor, lengua, it has it all. The staff are so amazing and kind it feels like youre at a family gathering. When youve had your taco craving filled, you go up stairs to the panaderia and get some awesome chores or other pan dulce. Prices are very affordable and its all very filling. All in all, one of the best taco spots in Alabama
