Reviews For Dora Taqueria & Cantina - Rochester

I purchased the fiesta platter, queso, tres leches cake, and churros. Everything I had was about damn near perfect. All the food was fantastic, and the queso was the best I’ve ever had. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. Service was impeccable, the food was prepared swiftly and was ready precisely when they had told me it would be ready, I didn’t dine inside however I did really like the decorations and atmosphere from what I could tell too.

Found this place while searching for another business in Rochester, and very pleased I did! The food was awesome and the staff and service was equally so!! Coming from the southwest I am always looking for good Mexican food, and this fits the bill! Do yourself a favor and pay My Cielo Taqueria a visit. I recommend the street tacos. Enjoy!

Great food! Finally, we have a good Mexican food place here in New England which I feel had been severely lacking, at least coming from former Texas residents. The drinks are NOT just mixes splashed with cheap well tequila, but are actually created to order and very delicious with a perfectly placed kick. Can be a little bit pricey but not by a lot and certainly worth it. Highly recommend, cannot wait to come back. :)

I had the street Tacos with shredded beef, onions & cilantro, spicy salsa. They came with a side of rice and beans. Everything was Delicious, Can’t wait to go back and try some different items.

Yum, tired this place on our way back from North Conway. I got the Birria Tacos and my BF got the 3 Carnitas Tacos. Portions were excellent. His came with tacos rice and a shell w. Beans/cheese. All the food was so delicious. My Birria Tacos were cheesey, juicy, and meaty. I would definitely try them again.

Amazing food. Great atmosphere. Great service. If you're in Rochester don't sleep on this place. The lengua tacos are to die for. If that isn't your thing.... they have so much more. If you never tried one.... they are a must if you are feeling adventurous. I had such a good experience I tried looking for negatives and I Have Nothing!!!!! 5 stars. More if I could. KUDOS GUYS. Keep up the great work.

Great lunch spot. Service was super quick and atmosphere was nice inside. There’s a patio outside, although the street is busy I think the atmosphere is fine for a quick bite to eat and place to enjoy some sunshine and fresh air! Food was great, a little on the spicy side for me on the salsa and sauces but authentic Mexican and that’s what matters!

I found Dora’s Taqueria a few days ago, and it was fantastic! The tacos are full of flavor, the ingredients are super fresh, and the guacamole is on another level. The service was incredible too. I especially loved the street tacos and the margaritas. Easily one of the best taco spots around. 5/5!
