El Gallo Giro Mexican - Boise

Best Mexican restaurant in Boise! The mole is exceptional, and the street tacos are fantastic!

I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant, especially the street tacos. I loved the option to choose my own garnishes. Our waitress was excellent—very attentive and friendly. My blackberry margarita was a bit lacking in flavor, but it still had a nice balance. I was also pleased with the prices and I'm definitely looking forward to coming back for happy hour.

This restaurant outshines Matador (the other downtown Mexican restaurant) in every aspect except for their drinks, and it's also half the price. The service is incredibly personal; it really feels like you're at a local family gathering. I sincerely hope they don’t follow through with their idea to turn this place into a taco-only establishment, as the rest of their food is absolutely fantastic!

Staff is amazing, friendly and quick to check on our table making sure we didn't need anything else. I had the special of 4 tacos, they were nice. Not spectacular but not bad at all. You can order wine or beers. Also some mixed drinks, I had the mango margarita, also not spectacular but it was okay. Parking is something to consider, we went around the block to the parking lot that on the weekend charges a flat fee until 6am. We were told not to park in front as we will be towed. The parkimeter was not working. We did the 1st Saturday of the month at 8pm that is latino bohemian night. Anyone who wants to take stage to sign or play can do it. It was fun, we had a great time.

My new favorite Mexican restaurant. Prices are good, the offerings are delicious and well thought out. At least on weekend nights, their pork street tacos are an absolute hit.
