What our guests are saying

For being in a little building, the food at Paco's Tacos and Sips delivers a giant punch. The tacos were great, with the carne asada meat being extremely flavorful. The beans were delicious and plentiful. Not to mention how spicy and savory the salsas were.

Really good food. I stopped in and had the Quesabirria tacos and they had to be some of the best I’ve had. Definitely worth a stop

Bryan L.

That birria was 10/10 incredible. I’ll be eating here all the time. Excited to try everything else on the menu… if I ever stop ordering the birria.

Matt W.

Queso Birria Tacos were absolutely delicious! On top of that, the beans and rice were the best I've had in a long time and that says a lot! I'll definitely be coming back.
