"Lane's Quickie Tacos is the taco hero we all need. Visitors here from NY and we were at the Museum of the North and needed a lunch that satisfied. Quick search of what is nearby and I knew immediately how badly we needed a quickie...taco. We zoomed on over to the small and adorable hut which had seating outside and in, very limited though, and were welcomed with a fun and expressive energy. We ordered our tacos, took a seat and boom the tacos were ready in about 5 to 10 min. Incredible speed for everything being so delicious and fresh. We couldn't try everything and seeing as we fly back to NY tomorrow I can't tell you if everything is great, but with what we had I'd safely assume it is. They are able to accommodate dairy free which is great too, if you have that type of dietary restriction. And if you read this far that's wild because I don't know how you aren't already convinced. Tell your friends and your enemies that Lane's the best tacos anywhere....in the world!?!?! Enjoy!"

"We were visiting from Hawaii and stumbled on to this place. Lane was an awesome guy. Very friendly and took the time to explain the menu and recommended items. Not just that he talked story and made the place feel super homey. It was nice.
As for the tacos, they were great. Better than what we have at home. Massive bonus points for making tortillas from scratch. I recommend the Texan. The homemade salsas were spot on too. Really enjoyed the spicy one. Soo good. They also have beer too. Prices were right on par for what you expect. Great experience. When we visit Fairbanks again, we would 100% come back."

"I used to get these tacos back when he was at the farmers market and we moved before he got into his permanent place. I waited 8 years to have these things again! They are still absolute perfection! I’m from Texas and his sweet tea is 10 out of 10. Nailed it! Queso is fantastic!! Just hope they don’t get tired of me showing up every week!!! 😂"
