Reviews for Taqueria El Porton in Bloomington, IL
I can?t speak for authenticity but I can say that we had a very tasty and hot meal on our visit to Bloomington today. The salsa... was very nicely flavored (my wife thought it was spicy but I loved it); the guacamole was more her taste. As soon as I saw thatthey offered cow tongue I knew I was going to get that. I had the cow tongue burrito and the meat was cooked PERFECTLY and wasvery flavorful. My wife had the fish tacos and she liked them a lot. Our toddler enjoyed picking apart the tacos, and I had theother one (beef) and it was very good. The service was great as well. Whenever we come back through town we will be 100% be backhere!

Amazing food for a good price! Staff was very friendly. Sometimes busy.
My fiancé and I enjoyed your food very much. We got the steak fajita burrito and some steak gorditas and they were delicious... and filling... the wait for the food was a bit long, but we had no idea they did carry out, now that we know we will call aheadand get our delicious meal that way.

Excellent service and fantastic food, the high rating is well deserved.
Very busy, amazing food, everything Mexican you could want. Definitely a great place for good food
HOLA, so we went right before lunch and got to seat ourselves. La Señora who served us was very friendly and professional (plus... she took my side on a bet at the table. Haha). Anyways, we ordered the Cecina Chimichanga that came with beans/rice/salad mix.It's was very good and filling (as you see in pic i actually took half plate home). We also ordered tacos of chili rellenos/asada/tripa/lengua (never go wrong with tacos here). The only thing i would say is for six tacos only 2 pieces of lime were onthe plate (i suppose some people don't use them and for that reason they do that so not too waste). The Horchata is a MUST! Itried the peach margarita (???? it was in a can) it was different but 10% alcohol def felt it. He had XX dark (it's beer notmuch more to say about that). The entrance is accessible to wheelchairs, however it would be a tight fit to the restrooms (sothat's a so so). Prices are reasonable for the area. THIS IS A PLACE I RECOMMEND FOR GOOD MEXICAN FOOD..

Excellent food. Chicken flautas really good. Fish tacos were great and beef nachos amazing. Place is kinda small. But its... super authentic and very good food. Service was excellent. Definitely a good stop. Pepsi products and ice tea was great! Read more
Terrible experience I didn?t even bother to sit down at this terrible establishment. I placed a to go order 30 minutes ahead of... time and I get there and I get it if you?re busy that?s one thing but to blatantly have a customer standing there For anextended period of time is ridiculous I waited an hour for food there I ordered 30 minutes ahead of time that makes no sense. Ontop of that when I got to the store my food was ready and I was given a nasty attitude from both of the waitresses because theywere busy that does not mean you get to be nasty people Read more
