Taqueria Ultimo Taco

This place is great for tacos, but it is always packed.
The seating area inside is tight and small, so if you don't like feeling elbow to elbow with the other customers, you can sit outside or get it to go.
I recommend to go.
But be warned.
The food to go is usually smashed together and not as pretty to look at as when you dine in.
The service is great.
The limonada is so delcious.
But I don't like the drinks that you can't get refills.
You have to pay for a new drink each time.
That's with all the drinks since the sodas are cans.
But the tacos, tortas, chalupas, and quesadillas are so good.
You can get a quesa birria torta or taco.
The best!!! You have a great option of meats and a variety of tacos served on corn or flour tortillas in various ways.
You can't go wrong with any item on the menu, and they are open until 2am!! Even better for those late nights.

I ordered 4 tacos.
Dos de tripa dorada on tortillas de maiz, uno de barbacoa on flour y uno de desebrado on flour.
The tripa was way to dorado to enjoy fully.
Everything else was so good though.
I also ordered frijoles especiales.
I tried a few others from local taquerias & Ultimo has The BEST ones! The limonada was refreshing as well & not too sweet.
My cousin & kids ordered as well & a few items they forgot to bring out because they didn't take the order right.
Overall I'd go back but will skip on the tripa tacos.

Update.....lost stars was 5 across until after meal. So, unfortunately, I came in to edit after waiting an ungodly amount of time for my surver to take our money.
Finally, I gave up and went up front.
I'm not sure if you're supposed to pay up front.
No one said anything.
Lots of other tables sat there, confused about how to pay. Update #2 Food is still great and the begining of service is amazing....until it's time to get the check.....then nothing.....we just sit there endlessly until, for the second time in a row, we gave up and went and found someone to please take our money so we can leave.....what the heck man! For the love of God, someone please explain that tips are better if you take our money while we're full and happy instead of full and irritated for waiting.... Og post below was before the meal was over... Wow! I did not anticipate how much I was going to like the food here.
Hands down the best food I've had in Brownsville. It gets packed and for good reason.
It's clean and well kept.
I don't speak or read any Spanish, and the server was very kind and quick to help me with anything I couldn't figure out.
Menu is in a mix of Spanish and English. Beans are way better than anything I've had in town.
Meat is cooked to perfection.
Nothing is too greasy.
I will 100% come back here.
