"Cute, small place, very similar to his “big brother” MAT. We liked it, but not as much as the tacos from MAT. The Margarita and Paloma were expertly crafted and completed the meal beautifully. Overall, I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quick bite served in a welcoming and lively atmosphere."
"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Al Pastor, a taco restaurant owned by Alexandru, and I must say it was an absolutely incredible experience. From the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere that set the tone for an unforgettable meal. First and foremost, the star of the show at Al Pastor is undoubtedly the food. The tacos served here are hands down the best I have ever tasted. Each bite was bursting with flavor, and the combination of perfectly seasoned meat, fresh ingredients, and homemade tortillas was simply divine. What truly sets Al Pastor apart from other taco joints is the attention to detail and the commitment to using high-quality ingredients. Alexandru, the owner, takes great pride in sourcing the freshest produce and meats, ensuring that every taco is made with the utmost care and passion. It is evident that he has a deep understanding of Mexican cuisine and a genuine love for what he does. Aside from the exceptional food, the service at Al Pastor was top-notch. Alexandru and his staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They were more than happy to provide recommendations and answer any questions I had, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough, and I am already looking forward to my next visit to indulge in their mouthwatering tacos once again."
"If you like Al pastor style tacos, this is the place to go. Recently opened, Al Pastor by MAT has one thing on the menu, and you've guessed it: tacos The beef tacos are really tasty, and they also have options for vegans, which are equally delicious. The staff is really friendly, and as we were waiting in line for quite a while, they brought us some cava to ease our wait. Next time we are craving tacos, we will definitely come back."
"Hands down the best tacos in Bucharest. We have been multiple times and the food has always been amazing but the service by Marina, who is so nice and has such great energy, is at another level! We recommend the pork and octopus tacos paired with some cold C-Side Tonics and, as a sweet treat, the churros are divine! Al Pastor is a must visit if you want to eat something fresh and light and have a great time"
"The pork tacos were amazing and juicy. The chicken ones were a bit dry. The service could've been a bit better and the staff a bit friendlier. The strawberry margarita was delicious. All in all, good Mexican food!"
"I love this place so much, me and my boyfriend adore going on thursday/ friday for the al pastor tacos, they have an offer for this specific item on the menu, but the other tacos are to die for too. Everything is fresh and packed with flavour, the tortillas and sauces are homemade and every ingredient goes very well with the others. This location is smaller than the one on Amzei, but I love it. It feels more intimate and cosy. Also, the lady that served us was extremely kind and friendly, cannot recommend this place enough."
