    Tellez Taqueria is absolutely the best!!! The food is not just well made but delicious!! The attention is always on the excellent service being given to you, the customer!!! Thanks to everybody there from the owners to all the staff!! Haven't been to a place with such qualities in a long time, they rarely exist now!!!

    Family owned and operated. Excellent tacos, gorditas, and more. Classic street vendor inspired offerings. Available individually and as a "plate" served with beans and rice. About half the customers during our visit ordered carry out. The rice was excellent. Well seasoned and not over cooked. The beans, unfortunately, were not up to the standards of the other culinary offerings.

    Addendum: We have ordered and enjoyed the refried beans in successive visits and found them to be quite good. Apparently, the batch referenced above in the original review was an anomaly.

    If what you're looking for is excellent food, this place is for you! There's no dress code or need for reservations. Bring your appetite and tastebuds and prepare to enjoy your meal! If you want fancy, you'll need to go ahead and drive into the city. I guess you could get the deliciousness to go and take it back to your fancy place? 😉

    A hidden gem in plain sight.

    Wow!

    Tucked back on the Square in Leonard, this was an unexpected and unassuming surprise. This is so much more than a taco shop.

    Beyond the expected fare when you go for Mexican food, this menu is interesting and divine. Everything is made fresh including the corn tortillas. The breadth of menu items reaches into lesser known but scrumptious regional dishes and they offer two unique dishes each day.

    It is family owned and operated and they are delightful people.

    I had a mouth-watering squash dish with a variety of peppers; poblano, jalapeño, red peppers, mild yellow peppers, two types of squashes, and a medley of other vegetables drenched in a perfectly simmered garlic and cream sauce It had the perfect pop of a spice profile. The presentation was clean and thoughtful. Sorry no photo, I happily slurped it up before I thought of that.

    My diet is low-carbohydrate and they were so accommodating and eager to prepare for me foods that fit my plan. I added a side of fajita chicken. Delectable!

    What's a Mexican restaurant without fresh salsa? My first taste yielded a balanced mix of flavors; tang, tomato, onion, garlic, and more. I thought - hmmmm- very mild. But wait. After a minute it had the most memorable and subtle spicey sensation without the burning lips.

    A gem.

    Truly a gem.

    Thank you, Jose and family!

    Excellent place to grab an authentic Mexican meal. No watered down Tex-Mex here, just good home-style Mexican food with friendly staff and a peaceful atmosphere. Prices are good and they have specials for each day of the week (Taco Tuesday anyone??)
    Highly recommended! One of the best, hidden little hole-in-the-wall places in North Texas.
    ** Ask for their Birria Tacos, they're not on the menu, and you won't regret it !!
