Ask Holland-area locals where to get tacos and you’ll hear about more than a favorite restaurant. You’ll get an al pastor order, a reminder to ask for green salsa, and a few suggestions for your next taco night.

We asked local Facebook groups for their favorite taco recommendations. Here are the places people sent us, what they suggested ordering, and the practical details to know before you go.

This informal community guide brings together reader recommendations. What to try includes reader suggestions and options from restaurant menus; check current menus and availability before going.

So…where should you start?

For al pastor: Tacos Borre and Mezkla both received specific recommendations.

For takeout: Readers pointed to Mi Favorita, including its online ordering.

For steak tacos: Try the reader picks at Taqueria Azteca or La Conchita N’ More. At La Conchita, the tip was to ask for green salsa.

For something less traditional: A reader singled out the Seoulful taco at StrEATs in Zeeland.

For a Tuesday outing: Wild Dog in Douglas got a Taco Tuesday recommendation, and its website currently advertises the event.

For a future Saugatuck stop: Save Saugataco for next season. It is closed for regular service for the 2026 season.
