Taco Bien - Veseli

Noted in the Star/Trib that Taco Bien was voted the top Mexican Restaurant in Minnesota for 2023. With that lofty recommendation we decided to give it a try.We tried the Quesadilla w/chilorio, Birria Tacos and Pork Al Pastor. All three had wonderful authentic flavors that are hard to find in most of the “Americanized” Mexican restaurants in Minnesota. Certainly delivered quantity and quality!

Taco Bien is such a gem hidden in a small town. Could not be happier with their food the dozen or so times I’ve been there. The tacos are amazing but their bacon cheeseburger is one of the best I’ve ever had. Chris and crew know what they are doing.

Today 7-20, my husband and I stopped there for dinner. It was full of people. We sat down, there was one waiter that was running around like crazy. We sat down, he greeted us just fine. He has multiple tables front and in the back.We ordered our food, Katie brought it out and we were in awe. It looked so good!I had the Birra Grilled Cheese... Let me tell you, the taste that melted in your mouth was something to die for.Thank you to the guy waiter not only for being personable and not showing your disgust of how busy it was!!Amazing!

Driving up to the place from Google maps on our way home, we assumed something was wrong. This is an American Legion. Luckily we saw the tiny paper sign that said Taco Bien in the window and went in. The menu was amazing, the service friendly, and the food was delicious. There are tacos, burgers and more, with some delicious brisket options, and lots of tasty sauces. What a hidden gem!Dietary restrictions: Menu is clearly labeled for dietary restrictions.

This was a great place to eat. We had the Birria tacos. There were 6 different sauces to choose from where the range was from low to high heat. My wife and I thought the Birria tacos were best tacos we’ve ever had and we go to a lot of taco places. I also had the brisket taco and it was delicious as well. However, I thought the Birria taco was so much better. The taco shells we had are corn based and soft shell.For dessert we had the Tres Leches cake and was crazy delicious. My wife and gobbled it down so fast!The owner was great to talk to as well. He was very easy to talk to and provided us with great places to check out.I gave the place 4 stars because it was hard to find in Lonsdale. The restaurant was inside the VFW and there was just a little piece paper on the window of the door.However, the place was a real gem of a find and I highly recommend the place. We will be going back to try many of the other dishes offered.
