Reviews For Don Beto's Tacos - Raleigh

Wheelchair accessible with a small bit of trouble manuevering intonthe restroom. A Mexican chick at 401 Par Golf told us about this place...Dios mia!!! This has to be one of the best Hispanic restaurants we have ever eaten at. We ordered fajitas, flautas (for the kids) and a wet burrito. Definitely order horchatas...I am tempted to visit later just for the drinks..wowzah. The service was fast and super kind. We spent 35 on our food and horchata drink and still brought some home. There are booths which make this a wonderful place for a date night. If you have kids, I recommend not sitting in the booths with dividers bc they rock everytime kids move. Will def visit this place again and again. Also, take a stroll to the bakeries next door and the large international market. Such a nice experience. Muchas gracias y bendiciones!

Mexicans eat here so, it must be good and authentic. Habla espanol (try)...it helps with order accuracy. There is no chips&salsa service and no queso dip for gringos; it's a walk up counter, don't over complicate things. However, everything is fantastic and priced properly. Must try, simple digs amigo!

I always order DoorDash from Don Beto’s and they always go about expectations. Lots of places to go near by this should be your first choice. Always delicious and happy with my order. Thank you - Jose

Loved the food here. Came here for lunch. The place is a self service place. Go to the counter order your food and someone will give it to you at your table. The salsa was really delicious. Ordered the quesadilla fajita. It was delicious!

Flavorful and filling lunch for a great price and quick service. Not sure what the bad reviews were about but I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. For those not sure, there is no wait staff so you must order your food at the counter and they will call your number once ready and deliver to your table.

Best Authentic mexican food spot in Raleigh! Amazing taste, the meat was juicy, the portions were right. Not sure why it’s rated so low, this place is it

Perfect spot for soup when feeling under the weather. I had a cold and didn’t have the energy to cook up my own soup so I ordered the “Caldo de gallina blanco” (clear broth chicken soup) from Betos. It was soul soothing. They also have a caldo de gallina roja (red) but I wasn’t sure if my throat would be able to handle it so I played it safe and got the clear soup. It was loaded with veggies and bone marrow flavor. It was the right choice. It even came with a large house made tortilla and I loaded up at that salsa/saladish bar. Well worth the .

First off, do not walk in here expecting chips and salsa or whatever you get at the water down "authentic" Mexican restaurants. Do expect to come in here and eat real, true, and motherland quality Mexican food. From the moment you walk in it smells of a Mexican house with the aroma of tortillas and grilled meat. You walk in to a hand crushed green salsa in a giant Mexican stone salsa dish. Even my daughter said "it smells like grandma's house" when we walked in. The food is simply to die for ... if for only a brief moment, I thought I was back in the motherland eating my grandma's sope and huarache at the table. They have a very broad menu with Mexican style seafood, tortas, huaraches, sopes, tamales, quesadillas, tacos, and other dishes that include grilled steaks or chicken. They have several flavors of fresh waters (we had the pineapple) on top of the regular sodas (Jarritos and such). Come with an appetite and a desire to eat great food. I would give it 10 stars if I could!! This place has earned my taste buds and my business. A must try for any Mexican foodie that loves to eat.
