About Fast Taco By Lupita's Mexican Restaurant And Grocery Store
Fast Taco By Lupita's Mexican Restaurant And Grocery Store in Manitowoc is a combined restaurant and grocery store serving a wide area. The business offers fresh produce, spices, Mexican bakery items, fresh meats, and other ethnic foods, along with a small boutique. Reviews note the friendly demeanor of the staff. The horchata is called the best in the city, and the tacos and tamales are praised as great and the best in town, with one customer pleasantly surprised by the carne asada tacos. The food is described as really great authentic Mexican food, fast from the drive-through, and exceeding expectations for the Midwest. However, the quality can vary greatly, sometimes with overcooked meat, and the place itself is seen as pretty dirty and run down. There is a noted language barrier for non-Spanish speakers. Pricing, especially for tamales, seems inconsistent. Despite these issues, many customers return regularly because the food is more often than not good and decent, recommending it for its authentic items that are not easy to find elsewhere.
They are good but not as good as the one in Chilton. They also do not have anywhere to sit and eat. That was frustrating because it's getting cold and crappy out. We both had the authentic tacos.

The tacos are awesome! Taste like someone's grandma/abuela made it 😋

Really good tacos a little on the expensive side. a dollar for extra hot sauce is a bit excessive but I do love the place and I do love their hot sauce!
