Tho who ever knows these individuals we are a family owned restaurant and everything we do we handle with care however if anyone knows these two please let them know that they are no longer welcomed around our restaurant especially for a few bucks. I know we wont get those few bucks back but its the stealing that is not okay and im sure theyre doing it to other stores they are door dashing at. Dashing under the name Melanie F.

Quién conoce a estas personas, somos un restaurante familiar y todo lo que hacemos lo manejamos con cuidado, sin embargo, si alguien conoce a estos dos, por favor hágales saber que ya no son bienvenidos en nuestro restaurante, especialmente por unos pocos dólares. Sé que no recuperaremos esos pocos dólares, pero es el robo lo que no está bien y estoy seguro de que lo están haciendo a otras tiendas a las que están corriendo. Corriendo bajo el nombre de Melanie F.

Due to the power outage we had to close today 7/27 they were not able to provide us with an ETA on when it will be back on

Debido al corte de energía, tuvimos que cerrar hoy 27/7, no pudieron proporcionarnos una hora estimada de llegada sobre cuándo volverá a estar encendido

In celebration of our ONE-year anniversary and with heartfelt thanks, we’re bringing back our very first promotion—with a twist! Enjoy a free regular-size agua fresca (limit one per order) when you purchase any of the following: Taco Dinner, 3 Quesabirrias with consomé, Cemita Poblana, Torta Cubana, or Arrachera Dinner.

From the Tacos El Vale team and family, we want to express our heartfelt appreciation to all of you. Without our customers, our community, and each one of you, we wouldn’t be where we are today. We’re thankful for the wonderful connections we’ve made along the way and the lessons learned through trials, errors, and feedback. Thank you so much! For any future nearby events, we’re always open to new collaborations, charity events, donations, and any opportunity to support and uplift our community.

A few words from Miguel & Jeni

"We sincerely appreciate your support and love, which have not gone unnoticed. We are truly grateful to celebrate this one-year anniversary, as not long ago it was only a dream. Thank you for everything—through both the good and the challenges, it has all been worthwhile, and we would not change a thing."
