Its a typical Taco Bell with its unhealthy fare. Their ground beef seems to be of low grade and is often pulverized to bb size chunks. There are plenty of local mexican places in the area to choose from and avoid this chain that will only increase your waistline and decrease your life expectancy.

We were the first customers of a weekday evening in search of authentic Mexican food when we dined here. The waitress was pleasant and attentive, but her limited English created glitches such as delivering flour tortillas when we had ordered corn, and a very spicily sauced meal for one diner who had requested "not spicy" in both English and Spanish. The food itself was ordinary. My Daily Special of three Fish Tacos contained only one piece of recognizable fish between all three, but two other diners were happy with their Gorditas Rellenas and Molcajete. There are weekend only items on the menu, such as Menudo, Pozole, and Barbacoa de Res. One of our party of three would return and recommend to friends.

This relatively new location has the best and most authentic tacos I have ever had. The carnitas were moist and flavorful, and the bistek was nicely marinated. As with all true taquerias, the tacos themselves are small; it takes 2 or 3 to make a meal. But at $2.25 each, you are still getting cheap eats. There is a nice toppings spread available, with veggies and fresh hot sauces of various flavors. The atmosphere isn't much to get excited about, but the food is truly the star. Simple, cheap, and delectable. There is what appears to be a decent butcher shop in the front, and the food is served in the rear.

The menu is classic mexican but the specials are a wide range. The food was prepared to order and was very good.

One of the Good Food Vendors in Liberty Place. This provides great fresh Mediterranean flair to all things on its menu. With a fusion of flavors in their bowls that allow you to select it the way you want. Parking at Liberty Place is sometimes difficult in the lot but once inside there are plenty of tables near Kaboburritos.

Stopped in after a day at Longwood Gardens to get a quick bite to eat. The quesadillas and "Red Sombrero" burrito were delicious. There is a salsa bar so that you can try many different heat levels and flavors. Also, try the hibiscus water... yum yum! Reasonable prices.

It is in the same shopping center as the DK Nail Salon and Subway, near Walmart.

Reviewed By Ashley M

This used to be our favorite restaurant in the area for good Tex Mex food but no longer. Went last week and were totally dismayed at the food. It is like a new owner or manager has taken over. I wondered why it was almost empty at lunch time but once we got our food I knew. Totally bland plus they got the order wrong. I ordered a plate with a burrito and an enchilada. Instead my plate had two enchiladas and no burrito. I was hungry so didn't bother to send it back. Worse part is that within 3 hours I was paying homage to my porcelain throne. Such a shame that this restaurant has gone so far down hill. Won't go back.

My husband a I went here on a Saturday night at about 7:30. We were the only ones in the restaurant. The restaurant does a lot of take out orders. Our service was great and the food was delicious. We had drowning chicken chimichanga and enchiladas. They were stuffed with meat. Not a lot of filler with beans and rice. Loved it.

Stopped here with my son after visiting a vinyl record store in Newark DE. It's just a single block off the main street in Kennett. Unassuming and friendly, the taco selection is small but good. We had a few different types, and they were all good, but the fish tacos were something special. Really, a fish filet fried on the grill in each one. Toppings are great. The place is clean and friendly. Go here for tacos.
