FRESH MEX RESTAURANT

985 West Fifth Street, Reno, 89503

Locals are just beginning to discover this hidden gem on Fifth Street near Keystone. It serves up great tasting Mexican food, and tacos start at $1. That’s right, a buck for some of the best tacos in town! This is a fast-food type restaurant, so don’t expect a lot of ambiance inside. However, if you like tasty tacos, complete with homemade tortillas and all the trimmings, you won’t be disappointed here. Many people make the mistake of thinking Fresh Mex is a chain, but it’s not. It’s locally owned and operated by Jesus Gutierrez, a chef who worked in casinos before he had the opportunity to own his own restaurant.
