| - I learned two things. 1) do not go alone unless you only want one kind of taco. and 2) "Adobada" and "Al pastor" are the same thing (at least as far as Tacos El Gordo is concerned)... Oh wait!! 3 things!! That these tacos are crazy good!!!! It was a madhouse inside, 4 different lines to get particular tacos, though, we were in the adobada/al pastor line and were able to order a carne asada taco from it. The guy yelled out to another guy, and after waiting a little longer, we got the carne asada tacos without having to wait in another line. (I'm not sure you can do this from all lines, this was my first experience.) We just had the two types of tacos. The carne asada was spicier than the al pastor. I somehow thought it would be the other way around. So, first you wait in line, then you pay at the cashier desk off to the side, and then try to maneuver your way to the soda fountain on the other side. They have all the Ole brand drinks (plus coke, sprite and orange fanta? I think?) I couldn't tell you what they are, I just know horchata is an option, and that's all I care about. I was at the Charleston location, and I noticed they also have a shuttle to offer shuttle service to the restaurant. Yes, it's that good. I get stressed out in crowds, so this was a pretty stressful experience especially for my first time, but so worth it. I've never even been that much of a street taco person. I now know it's because I've never had good ones. Looking forward to refilling my anxiety meds to eat these again. :D
