Gaona’s Kitchen

Burnsville (Steak and Chicken)

Today’s taco stop took us somewhere unexpected — the Burnsville Mall food court. But don’t let the location fool you — Gaona’s Kitchen is serving up tacos that rival the best in the Twin Cities.

We tried both steak and chicken tacos, and each bite was packed with flavor. The steak was tender, juicy, and loaded with bold, extra seasoning that took it to the next level. The chicken was just as impressive — moist, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection.

And for those wondering about the price? It’s right in line with most taco spots — $20 for five tacos that are absolutely worth every penny.

But the real star of the show? The red sauce. This isn’t your average taqueria salsa roja. There’s something deeper, richer going on here — I picked up on what tasted like subtle Indian spices woven into the mix, giving it a unique, unforgettable twist. It’s the kind of flavor that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate it.

Beyond the food, the vibe at Gaona’s is just as inviting. The staff treats you like family — genuinely warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they’re serving. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back before you’ve even finished your meal.

So next time you're at the Burnsville Mall, skip the chains and head straight to Gaona’s Kitchen. It’s a taco experience you didn’t know you needed.
