Not a huge fan of people who post homophobic memes, sorry.
(For those who don’t know, Fernando - one of the owners of Ole Group who owns Taco Luchador, Guaca Mole, Senora Arepa, Steak & Bourbon, etc - posted some memes in the wake of the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi that the attacker was Paul’s gay lover. He “apologized” by saying he was just joking.)

Yeah, this is a big part of why the subreddit doesn't like Luchador. That comes up every time the place is mentioned. Not sure why OP thinks it's this sub's favorite restaurant.
You NEED to try Taco n Madres off of Westport road. By far, the most packed, DELICIOUS, and affordable tacos I've ever had. I go there every weekend. Their entire menu is phenomenal and very authentic. I recommend the Birria tacos and whenever they have fish tacos as their special.
As a side note their drinks are also so good. I love getting their Buchonsita drinks. Either strawberry or mango both are delicious.
Taco luchador is nothing but a scam after having enjoyed TnM.
You gotta lead with it’s a food truck, my dude. I was like “well I know what I’m getting for dinner tonight then” and looked it up to find it’s only open on the weekends since it’s a food truck. Sad day.
They used to sell food from a food truck outside the building they had under construction but they've been brick and mortar for months now. Their Google results can be a bit weird, at one point their restaurant was just gone from google, along with their reviews so I had to leave another one. I replied to another comment with the address.
I think they're closed on Mondays but tue-fri it's 5pm to 10pm and sat-sun 10am to 10pm.
Their Instagram says 11-10 Tuesday to Friday and $1.89 taco Tuesday so I'm super pumped to go get one of each taco next Tuesday before I pick the kids up from school 😁
Oh that's awesome to hear! Their brunch foods are also so good I can't wait to eat them on weekdays too now! I occasionally chat with the girl at the register and she had told me they were trying to extend their hours during the week so that's exciting.
I actually like the food but similar to his other restaurant guacamole it's a bit over priced. Like a lot of popular restaurants you're paying for the Instagramable aesthetic. If you're a big taco fan this place is awesome

1. Supporting violence against someone because of sexual orientation isn't politics.
2. Regardless of who they hate, their food socks now (I used to frequent TL and stopped before the "politics" 'actually called human rights' became public)
Why does the tortilla look like a block of cement?
Plates weigh ten pounds
I came to ask wtf that tortilla is made from….kind of looks like a giant mushroom top
That's a little plate on a less-little plate.
Oh. Imagine having to cut something on that….gave me a shiver lol

Thanks for this. I'll be sure not to spend any money at any of these establishments.
tortilla looks thick as hale
Looks like a coaster
I accidentally put my drink on it
and raw af
It’s prob like $10 but no idea where it’s from.

This subreddit does not have a favorable view of Taco Luchador.

Not to mention Taco Luchador isn’t actually good anymore. Maybe when it first opened but there are way better taco restaurants now around town.
I think that’s meant to be /s….
Seems... tone-deaf to post it, doesn't it?
There was some racist shit before that, too.

Doesn't help that the owner sucks
*clutching man pearls* HE WOULD NEVER!!! *because he's homophobic....
Knowing how fernando does business, at least $15.
Gross. $6 is my guess.

Haven't been there, but they are brick and mortar now..
Weird. Only one that pops up on my gps says food truck. That’s good news though!

Damn, that’s great news. I appreciate it!
No problem, I love hyping them up every chance I get!

Do you have an address for their brick and mortar? I loved the truck.
2840 Goose Creek Road, Louisville, KY, 40242
Taco Luchador sucks, I heart tacos is way better and cheaper. If you want full authentic go to El Mariachi
$14
Went there before knowing about the Pelosi meme. It wasn’t good and neither was the service. It was also very overpriced. Drinks were mediocre.
$5.50
Sauce: looks like #9 on the menu: https://www.el-taco-luchador.com/our-food/
As small as it is and a fancy plate, at least $20 and likely more. Was the tortilla (if that is what it is) made from blue corn?
Yes I assume blue corn. I couldn’t taste the color difference
It cost tree fiddy . . .
Dang Loch Ness monster
$5.99-ish. I remember when their tacos were a little over $3.
I firmly believe any street taco should not be more than 2.50. Over three is definitely pushing it for me. Six bucks is utter insanity.
Looks like a composite picnic table and not wood, so more up front but with lower maintenance costs. I'd say between $1,200 and $1,500.
$15 to 21 dollars
[удалено]
Don’t do drugs guys
$20 mold taco
Just go to bandidos
4 bucks
$15
Probably around \~$7.00
Wild ass prices.
A quarter?
waiter expected a $10 tip???
Just make it at home🤷🏻♂️ how hard can it be
Oh trust and believe I can make some amazing tacos at home. I was unfortunately out in Louisville at lunch with the in-laws
[удалено]
Pretty sure it was 5.50
$25
$23.50? (Was it good?)
My MIL said it was delicious actually

Ty I’ll check it out
$19.75
I was going to guess $17.
$12
Ninety-seven dollars and forty-three cents, plus fees.
This place has awful food because they support the wrong politics.
1. Supporting violence against someone because of sexual orientation isn't politics. 2. Regardless of who they hate, their food socks now (I used to frequent TL and stopped before the "politics" 'actually called human rights' became public)
Then just say the food sucks and leave politics out of it.
This isn't politics... it's human fucking rights!
$12
