I tried the shrimp and fish tacos. Both were massive and had to be eaten with a fork! I'm guessing there were at least a dozen jumbo shrimp in one taco. The decor was definitely 'unique' but that's not why I was there. I went because of the great reviews I found here on tripadvisor. My Cabo friends are now... More

These are the best tacos you will EVER have. I love Mexican food, so to actually go to Mexico is a real treat. These tacos are authentic, and no matter how simple they may look, you won't be able to make them yourself, so don't even try. Ok, so I wouldn't rate the decor an A+, and chances are if... More

Simply the best tacos around! We hate leaving our beach loungers to go into town in the day time but Gordo Leles tacos makes it worth the trip. Javier is such a sweet guy and always remembers his customers. A bit off the beaten path but I love his little hole in the wall spot and enjoy looking at all... More

The place is not much to look at and certainly might be passed up by most, but it is truly a hidden gem. If you don't give it a try, you a missing out on some simple but delicious and inexpensive food. Highly recommend the shrimp taco. You wont be dissappointed. More

As usual Javier and Gordo Lele did not disappoint! My husband and I brought our kids here for the first time and they loved it. Not only were the tacos great as usual we had chips a guacamole that were also very good. This is THE best place for a taco in Cabo San Lucas. After we ate Javier serenaded... More

Gordo will provide you the best tasting tacos or tortas you will have in Cabo for a great price. Take out is available and you will see the locals streaming in here for their lunch and dinner take out. More

While the service was fine (as I was the only person in the restaurant), the tacos were pretty much tasteless. Fresh corn was fine but that was the overriding taste. Too many other quality choices in the area to return. More

Gordo Lele's is like no other taqueria in the world! Senor Lele is obsessed with the Beatles and the walls of his tiny place are covered in Beatles memorabilia as well as some that have his face included. Food was great, super tasty and very big but overall very cheap. Loved when Senor Lele came out at the end when... More
