New Location! If you haven’t checked out El Milagros new location, you must go! They have a wonderful authentic menu, the service is always friendly and nice.
Came in early one morning for some breakfast. Had the veggie fajitas with a couple fried huevos. Great food. Great service. Great prices. The market was really cool. Had some interesting items that you don’t see everywhere. Had to get some of the cotel vampiro. Bought a bunch of seasonings as well. Cool selection of Mexican drinks, snacks, and candy.
This was my 1st visit but definitely not my last! Of course they start you out with free fresh chips and salsa, the chips were hot and super fresh! Absolutely the best tacos I've Ever had in my life! I chose the steak tacos with a side of rice with cheese. To my surprise the tacos come with a large charred jalapeno on the side..Absolutely perfect! And at 1.99 per taco, you can't go wrong! Beautiful atmosphere and our server was a lovely sweet lady, she was on top of things! Highly recommend a visit. They also have a small store inside. I'll be checking it out very soon.
Just ate here for the first time. Enjoyed a Gordita (JUST like the ones we’ve had in Mexico) and the Tacos de birria. Absolutely FABULOUS. Our waitress was super helpful and kind. If you are looking for a cultural experience, definitely come here. Be prepared for some smells outside if in summer. There was also less AC in the restaurant part but it was still very comfortable temperature-wise. The restrooms are not something I can recommend but it was worth it for the food and cultural experience. Edited to add: Plan to get a bottled drinks. The cups of water taste a little like mold. Edit: At their new location the water tastes great and there are no offensive smells! I’m changing this to a 5 star review bc their birria tacos are just the best EVVARR
Literally my go-to authentic Mexican restaurant in town. Plus the market is absolutely amazing and I love to explore and try new things there. There byria consomme is life-changing
I've visited multiple Mexican restaurants in Cookeville and El Milagro has one of the best birria tacos. Their consome is excellent. Also, very convenient market. We are able to find a lot of produce that you cant buy anywhere else like: platanos , zapote, certain cheeses and chorizos
We checked out the market today. It was great finding items we haven't seen since leaving Tucson a few years ago, and missed. The place is clean and has a nice selection of goods. By the way, if you've never had a Coke from Mexico (glass bottle, real sugar), go get one!
Great food and service. Really like the new location. Will be coming back very soon.
