Best Election Day Comfort Food in Austin | Eater Austin

"I like choosing between the Democrat (barbacoa, cotija cheese, avocado) and the Republican (brisket, barbecue sauce, crispy onions), or going for the golden queso, the fried avocado taco, and many other creative options." - Erin Russell

Kyle helped me by recommending the republican and the tipsy chick as well as the green chilie queso. Loved it all. Great recommendations. Will definitely be returning. Oh love the crunchy bits in the republican.

I'll start off by saying the photos I attached is only one of the items in my order. I didn't take pictures of the other items I ordered to go because I was so beyond pissed I spent 41 dollars on this trash and ate the food in shame and only stopped to take a picture when I literally couldn't finish it... Now to the review. I ordered two republican tocos and a trailer park and street corn. Start with size and presentation. All 3 tacos were about the thickness of a Walmart taquito. So like the diameter of a Costco hotdog. The employee explained them being super filling and having a large portion and only recommended getting two max per person. I would say judging off of the menu photos I would concur. But wait!There's more!!! What was presented to me was a pip-squeak taco that looked like state school lunch. I mean I literally couldn't even finish this crap. Look at the photo and what I received. First of all the taco had a fried fish stick flavor that was strong. Girlfriend agreed on the flavor. That was the only two bites taken out of this. Then the republican tacos. You can find the pictures your self and see. Long story short they looked just as sad and depressing as this crap here. The street corn was the only thing worth eating. It was good but I didn't appreciate the lime being buried in the corn.... So yeah you get these dinky disgusting tacos that are similar to something you'd expect out of jack in the box but instead of charging 99cents they charge 6 bucks. You can't make it up. Proof is in the photo. Gross sad depressing food that is basically a scam when you compare it to the description given by the employee and the menu photos. I hope management and ownership sees this review and realizes the crap they are putting out. Like this is disgusting. Frozen depressed chicken strip wrapped in cheese and a store bought tortilla. Was supposed to have green chilies and stuff but it basically looked like there was a few green chilies skins and that was it. The republican tacos also had barely any toppings or meat on them and were mostly tortilla. Absolutely trash food don't bother wasting your money and support a local restaurant.

Kyle was outstanding!! It was our first time in. We sat at the bar, Kyle greeted us with great vibes, great energy and an AWESOME personality!! He was very helpful, friendly, respectful and knowledgeable. The food was delicious & with customer service like that, DEFINITELY coming back!!! Our new favorite spot for food and some drinks.

My sister recommended this place to me and it did not disappoint The tacos here, while not traditional, are tasty! The chefs creations and the concepts that drive the menu are unique-& what they do, they do correctly! Some of the best flavor combinations for tacos Also there non-soda drinks, their juices and teas are absolutely delicious So many choices here, that I like and feel good about choosing .

Democrat and republican tacos have good flavor, chips and dip are good. Bowls have a lot of cilantro. Churros are sugary, service is generic. I can see why people here like the atmosphere and food. It’s a basic Spanish American flavor and it’s better than Taco Bell but not something I would crave. Good to try

First time coming in to Torchy's, and really enjoyed it! It's a nice restaurant with a good amount seating inside as well as a nice, covered patio for outside seating. TVs around the bar and outside, too. The food here is delicious! The tacos are a little pricey per taco, but they are huge and loaded with toppings. Tried the Trailer Park and Republican - both phenomenal! We ordered the burrito with chicken and it was huge! Tasted great even without any of the salsas that come on the side. Would absolutely get these again! We got an order of the half size guacamole and was a little disappointed. It's very small (I get it being a half size) and pricey for the amount you get, in my opinion. That being said, the guac was so good with a slight kick! Solid kids menu and prices that were better than some other local spots. They do have a full bar and beer on tap, as well! Happy our every week day on both food and drinks. Overall, we will definitely be back to try more delicious options. This is a great Mexican spot in Gilbert!

Quick Service but with sit-down quality. We've seen this restaurant and hadn't visited but were interested. Saw a post from a friend on FB and decided we'd have dinner here. For less than a sit-down restaurant, we picked 4 tacos that were street styled but twice as large as the usual. Don't miss the Baja Shrimp, Tipsy Chick, Crossroads and the Trailer Trash tacos. We also picked Mexican Streetcorn and Chips & Green Chile Queso as sides. They also did not disappoint. We're even more thrilled to learn there's a location closer to home.

First time here, super cool vibe. It’s like a casual taco spot, but with a little bit more upscale vibe with the bar area. Tacos are really, really big and good so bring an appetite

We stopped by Torchy's for lunch today and were sad to learn that the fruit juices have been discontinued! Our churros came out a bit overcooked, but the staff member was so kind and had them remade. We love the queso dip there (it has a kick!), and I always get the grilled Baja shrimp. We ordered using their kiosk--I love how many customization options they offer! The restaurant got even busier after we sat down, but the service remained great and it wasn't very noisy. Don't forget to download their app to earn rewards!

We visited Torchy's today, Wednesday evening, at 4:15pm. We've been to Torchy's many times, mostly the San Tan Torchy's and we enjoy it very much. Not only are the tacos wonderful (at both locations), but we've always had such a great customer experience with the team members. That was not the case today. I realize we arrived before the dinner rush, but there was no one at the counter to greet us as in the past. There were two team members at the bar talking to the only customer in the restaurant. We waited for a few minutes to be acknowledged and have someone take our order, but we soon realized that they must be expecting us to order on the kiosk. We began our order on the kiosk and it was pretty user friendly. We are just slower than when we have assistance. We put in our Torchy's rewards info and as we finished up our order, we were asked how much tip we wanted to give. At this point, we were tempted to give no tip since we'd been there 10 minutes with no interaction from anyone. We chose the smallest tip option, assigned ourselves a pager number and went to a table. Our food came out within 10 minutes and our server was pleasant. While eating, the only other customer left the bar and it seemed that all of the team members disappeared into the kitchen for at least 10 minutes. We joked that maybe they had all been taken hostage and we should go check on them. We watched as one woman came in, waited at the counter, and then left a few minutes later as no one came out to assist her. Another gentleman arrived and waited for over 5 minutes before someone finally came out and helped him. Another couple came in and placed their order on the kiosk and saw a team member at the bar and kept waiving to try and get her attention for help. I understand that they were lightly staffed at this time, but it seems that one of the staff at the bar could come over and greet new customers and ask if they are ok with placing their order at the kiosk or if they need assistance. I'm glad we've been to Torchy's many times and had really good experiences. Did I mention we love their food! But, if this was our first time, I'm not sure we would return.

Disclaimer: I am not an old guy who doesn't like spice or seasoning. I went twice this week to really solidify my opinions. As far as sides: I tried the beans, the queso, and the street corn. tried 4 different tacos. The Baja, the tipsy chick, the seasonal "The American" and the trailer park. I found all of these dishes to be a tad oversauced and/or overdone as far as their flavors go. In my opinion, everything was just a tad saltier than it should be, and just a tad over seasoned. The result is an experience that was really heavy and ever so slightly gross. Service is great, food came in a timely manner. Cool ambience. By all accounts this chain seems to aspire to really be a foodie's taco joint. Unfortunately they haven't learned that often, and especially with tacos, less is more.

I like this place.. you only need 2 tacos they are huge! It's a nice little bar/quick/sit down mix, I've been 2 times and it's been good both times. The people are pretty cool and it's always clean.

You can order at the cash register or order on a screen. Super unique menu, so if you want a twist on a taco, come here! Lots of seating inside and out. There's also a full bar with draft beers and speciality cocktails. I just opted for a Dos Equis, but definitely want to come back for a margarita. The dip trio was delicious. I liked the queso, guac, and salsa. Chips were warm, light, and salty, just like I like! Both the tacos I ordered were good. Generous portions too. Food came out quick! Overall a good experience and I'll be back!

First visit to Torchy's with some family who had been there before. It was Friday around 11:00am with a decent crowd. You can wait to order at the counter, or order using one of two kiosks to the left, which was convenient and easy to use. I liked that you could add modifications for each item on the kiosk as well. My family recommended the Green Chile Queso and Grilled Baja Shrimp Taco, so I tried both. I'm not typically a queso person, but I enjoyed this one! It has the green chile flavor but isn't too spicy, just a slight kick. Their tortilla chips have just the right amount of thickness and salt that makes them addicting. I really liked the taco, especially because I love Chipotle Ranch. I also tried the Mr. Orange (salmon) taco, but it was way too salty for me. My family also ordered a queso to go, but they served it for dine-in. The server was so nice - She checked the order again, realized it was her mistake, and gave us another queso with chips packaged to go. So we ended up with a total of 3 queso orders! Tip: Download the app & sign up, then you'll get a free queso! You can earn points toward rewards every time you make a purchase. You'll also get a free queso (with a minimum $1 purchase) for your birthday!

I came in here on Thursday and was blown away by the taste of the food. It was awesome. Loved the chips and salsa and my Bowl tasted great. I was so impressed that I went back today [ Saturday] and the food was not as good. I did try something else this time and wish that I had gotten the shrimp bowl again. The chicken was good, but not as good. Service was once again very good. The gals that work there are very helpful. I did have to clean my table, and I can say that it was cleaner when I left, than when I got there. For the most part, the place is very clean. I'm going to give it another shot and see if the first time was a fluke. Staff is very good.

First timers at Torchy's This vision started with their founders as a food truck in 2006 in Austin, Texas. Today there are over 125 locations throughout 14 States & growing. Neat concept as you walk in to place your order at the counter and then grab a table or take it to go! They have a nice bar area offering margarita's and few mixed cocktails and beer. We sat at the bar and grabbed a few drinks and an appetizer. Their Threesome for 4! It's a half order size with fresh chips, green chili queso, guacamole and a choice of salsa. We wanted BOTH the Roja and the Tomatillo. Little extra charge for that, but perfect for sharing & really tasty, yet a little salty. Enjoyed a Mexican Candy Margarita which is Don Julio Blanco Tequila, Grand Marnier, Watermelon purée, dash of hot sauce and a generously rimmed topped with Tajin. They offered a Mango Cart beer on tap by Golden Road Brewing out of Los Angeles, never had it before and really liked it as it paired well with the Tortchy's chips & dips. We'll consider coming back to explore more of their menu. They have a wonderful Happy Hour Monday-Friday from 3-6 PM even though their website states 9PM (?) unless they do a reverse Happy Hour at that time as well but, unsure about that. Enjoyed our experience and our bartender was very pleasant. Note-All their tortillas are made from scratch in house. *Didn't realize this until now (and doing a little research) that unfortunately, they do use MSG in their food. Which makes me a little more leery to return for food anyway*

Always love me some torchys. Food tastes great and service is good. Queso and some tacos is the best way to do it. I haven't done any of their drinks but I go every few months. Great decor for torchys too.

Great tacos but horrific wait and poor service. Not sure why it took an hour to get 4 tacos. Went through the "do we wait or try to get our money back" debate. We were not alone either and a lot of tables went hunting for a manager, or anyone, to talk to but no response. Torchy's... dunno but it seems like you may have a problem store here.

Torchy's Tacos is the kind of place where queso dreams come true. Their queso and chips aren't just good; they're the stuff of legend. Imagine golden, melty cheese mingling with a perfect blend of spices, topped with guacamole, and served with crispy, lightly salted fresh chips that practically sing with each crunch. One dip and you'll understand why this queso has a cult following - it's like liquid happiness, but better. Mix it all together to see what I'm talking about. The a service at Torchy's is a bonus as well. The staff is attentive, ensuring your taco experience is top-notch. And speaking of tacos, they're on point - bursting with flavor and creativity. Don't leave without asking for the secret menu; it's like discovering the hidden level in your favorite video game, but tastier. Torchy's Tacos is where your taste buds get a VIP treatment, and trust me, they'll be thanking you. Love this place I have been going at least one a week,just needed to share my experience. Almost forgot to mention they have a bar with good beers on tap. Enjoy.

Happy to find one of my favorite TX tacos joints in the Phoenix area! The tacos are always consistent and they have a hidden menu here as well! This location also has a bar area with a few beers on tap.

Scam!! They tell their rewards on their app yet when I went into the Gilbert location he said that it's some special rule that they don't apply on the app that the rewards on the app and some other BS. Do not support businesses that lie and try to lower you in with tricks that don't even have the decency to put it in small print but feed you some line of trickery and twisted words just to get you in the restaurant. Will never be coming back here again and will advise against dishonest practices from other restaurants very disappointed. also, this is completely false advertisement. A complete lie I ordered some food went in to pick it up and then an attempt to redeem what they profess to offer on their app. I was fed the above lie by this restaurant. Completely dishonest organization.

Torchy's was a decent taco spot that isn't authentic, but definitely has some unique options and it a nice location to dine-in near Santan Village. They have a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating, and also offer a full kids menu and bar. They offer a wide variety of tacos with beef, pork, chicken, seafood, and plant-based options. The prices are pretty good at $5-$6.50 per taco and the sizes were decent based on what taco you order. The house salsas that we tried were very good and they do have a full bar. I thought the value was fair overall and the flavor were decent to good. In Phoenix it is tricky because we don't need chain taco places, however this place did have a nice vibe and I would like to go back and try some other options. The staff was energetic and helpful as we worked through the menu options. Overall, a solid 3.5 to 4 stars and worth checking out!

We have always been a fan of torchys growing up in Texas. The space here is difficult due to the lack of parking available in such a busy area. It's als0 much faster to order on the machine as nobody was staffing the cashier. Carryout did take longer than quoted even though it was not crowded. I do wish there was designated parking for pickup as this was a real struggle to find. Food was okay not as good as the original. I do love the amount of options available and being able to order on corn tortillas. Their queao with chorizo is one of our favorites and the tacos are usually very loaded.

Six friends and I planned on meeting up for dinner. We even made a flyer with the address and time just for us. Unfortunately one of our friends shared the flyer with Ami, a manager, and she promptly messaged us on Instagram calling us disrespectful and to go somewhere else. Incredibly poor customer service from leadership before even setting foot in the restaurant. I did inform Ami's boss Jake Shaw and the area manager Tony Belter of this poor customer service via e-mail and never received a response. Ultimately, the individuals running this location do not care about their customers at all. **Update** completed link for feedback provided by owner

My friend and I went to Torchy's Tacos for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn't busy at all, so we were able to order quickly and grabbed a table to dine-in. Our order came out pretty quickly after, they have self-serve soda which I had ordered. I had ordered the chicken bowl with potatoes (extra charge) and a side of chipotle ranch. The different ingredients that made up the bowl were pretty salty, rice was mushy, chicken wasn't very flavorful. I did like the chipotle ranch sauce as a dipping sauce. My friend had gotten a fish & a shrimp taco; she also said both were pretty salty. We also got the churros, they would've actually been quite good if they didn't taste burnt. Overall, not likely at all to come back. The tacos aren't cheap, neither is the bowl so given all these factors, I'd say they need to step up their game!

Visited Torchy's Tacos for dinner one night. We've been to the Queen Creek location and enjoyed it, so decided to try the Gilbert location. It's located near the SanTan Village, which is closer to us. The interior is large and spacious. Just like the QC location, Gilbert also has a full bar. I ordered one baja shrimp taco, one Mr. Orange, and the street corn. Hubs and I shared the green chile queso and chips. The baja shrimp taco comes with fried shrimp, cooked cabbage slaw, pickled onions and jalapeños, cotija cheese, cilantro, and chipotle sauce while the Mr. Orange comes with blackened salmon, grilled corn and black bean relish, cotija cheese, cilantro, and avocado sauce. Between the two, I liked the baja shrimp taco the most. I enjoyed the textures and flavors. I remember enjoying the Mr. Orange at the QC location, but not so much this time. I actually wished I got two baja shrimp tacos instead. Next time. The street corn and queso were also great and I would order them again. The staff was pleasant and helpful. Glad to have a Torchy's Tacos close to home!

Wow !! Place was packed thought we would give it a try since this isn't our normal stomping grounds . DAYUM the wait was for days .. the chips were so so pretty flour tasting -salsa was bangin tho-- the organic drink options a total PLUs. Then our food came out: I had a veggie taco that was limp tasteless ingredients at best. (Couldn't stomach it) My grilled shrimp taco had two tiny pieces of shrimp ( 2 ! ) and a sad sliver of avocado. My husband had a veggie burrito that again was limp and came from canned veggie ingredients. Just sloppy . But hey we tried something out here.

This was my first time going to torchy's on a walked in. It was very welcoming, clean and comfortable. We just walked up to the counter and ordered our food and found a table and sat down. We had ordered chips and the queso dip and it comes with guacamole, which is absolutely delicious couldn't get enough and then I ordered the taco that was a salmon and it had a black bean salsa. I believe on it and it was absolutely delicious. I would've ordered two of them. I will be coming here again. You won't be disappointed come try torchy's. I recommended highly!!

A classic TexMex chain from Texas had started to branch out, even to my second home in AZ. I was surprised seeing the Torchys logo again and grateful they are closer to me than Texas now. This location in particular seems pretty new. The staff is great and attentive and the overall restaurant is well kept. The food is classic as always, served fresh and seasoned well. The queso is to die for and their chips are always a hit with anyone I'm with. Overall, I'm glad Torchys is in AZ now so I can visit more often. This location represents the franchises in Texas well!

They appear to do soft tacos here. Which is fine. When I looked at the menu, I figured they would be reasonably large tacos since they were all over $5.00 each. I got the green chile pork. What I got was a tiny little taco (see photo). Maybe only half or 2/3 the size I was expecting for the price. Gotta deduct for value here. The taco itself was very good. If someone brought me a bag of these, I would be very happy. But I wouldn't go here and pay full price on my own. There are other places where I can get really good tacos for a lot less. Some of them even have an abuelita in the kitchen (i.e. someone's grandma is making them). It was very crowded. They appear to be very popular. And the one taco I had was really good. But you don't get a lot for your money. I should also mention that they have standard soda fountain drinks, and then they have another fountain that has craft lemonades and such. The lemonade also was very nice.

So we came here for a late dinner, probably showed up at 8pm Saturday night and they were busy! Love it, always a good sign. My wife ordered 2 tacos and she said she absolutely made the right choices, I ordered the Chicken Fajita Burrito, it was amazing. We also started with chips and salsa, we got both the Rijo and Tomatillo Salsas. I ordered one on the side because I didn't know which one we would like. We really enjoyed both of them. They give you a lot of salsa with your chips so we brought some home. I'd totally get both salsas again. This place is a lot of fun, the vibe was great, and the employees even looked like they enjoy working there, which is refreshing. We will definitely be back!!!

Get here early to avoid the rush and line. Torchy's has been a favorite of mine since long before them coming to Arizona and I was very excited for them to come here. This location is definitely better than Queen Creek's but still not quite what I had hoped for thinking about my memories of Torchy's. We have visited about 4-5 times. First time was for the grand opening 5 stars. Even waiting in line for over an hour we were pumped food was delicious and everything was perfect. Second time we visited it was a 4 they messed up our order and my husband had to wait 20 min after I had gotten my food to eat. Third visit was a 1 my kids chicken tacos were served raw and we never got churros so we had to go to the counter multiple times. They did give us 3 free tacos cards but we learned we could only use those one at a time not all at once. The frozen margs are exactly as we remember and the restaurant is spacious but overall it's very loud inside the ambiance of the outdoor patio is better and they have fans outside to help with the heat during the warmer days. Overall I would love to see the location be a little cleaner. Seems like it is a bit dustier with each visit. Go during a less busy time or right at opening and enjoy the amazing food Torchy's has to offer.

Torchy's has become a family staple! Very rare does it seem that a new flavor comes to this Cesspool of chain restaurants but Torchy's was a welcome chain! The staff are friendly, the restaurant is clean, and their food is good, barring a few of their tacos. I would recommend a "Trailer Park Trashy" (fried chicken tender, some veggies, sauce, and queso, served on a flour tortilla) I would stay away from "The Democrat," it's barbacoa and some other things served on a corn tortilla (not a good flavor). And of course, you HAVE to get the chips and queso, absolutely legendary! 4 stars for a few mediocre menu items and the price as it is a bit expensive.

Brushfire Taco and Fried Avocado are a must!! The sauce for the brushfire was HOT and I loved it. Fried avocado was good and creamy but added the diablo sauce to make it spicy. The drinks were good and the chips and queso were even better, service was pretty good for being such a busy night. Must try!

Was excited to try out Torchy's new location in Gilbert. Came by on a Friday night and was packed! Line out the door. Luckily it moved pretty quick. Food was decent. Queso is a must. I liked my breakfast taco but didn't care for the green chili pork taco. My husband didn't care for his either. I was mostly disappointed in the tortillas and salsa. Service was top notch. Tables were cleared immediately after finishing, staff was super friendly. For how busy it was, I'm surprised how quickly we were able to order and eat. Food came out quick and piping hot. They seemed well staffed all around. Parking was tricky. We were surprised by how full the lot was. Will be interesting to see how parking is handled once some of the new neighboring restaurants start operating.

After weeks of delays and wondering, this place is finally open and I am so happy, as Torchy's is my absolute favorite! I waited in line and was one of the first 100 people who came away with a free tshirt and free Queso for a year! Plus a fan and koozies! Gotta love free swag! Plus the staff here is on point and amazing! I can't say good enough things about this place! The dining room is so clean and inviting and well put together! The food as always is superb and the ambiance is hopping! I love Torchy's! Maybe I should celebrate my birthday here on Monday.

Food is pretty good. Its not my kind of place though. Came for happy hour and you have to stand in line and order then sit and wait. They bring ur food out to u but if u want another beer etc back in line you go. I had the August taco of the month which was Baja fish. I liked it a lot and the corn tortillas were delish. The restaurant was very loud. Staff friendly.

I tried the MoFaux taco made with Beyond Beef. This is their only plant-based vegan taco. It came with a side sauce. I wasn't sure if the side sauce was vegan because it was creamy, but it was way too spicy anyway so I didn't use it. Their tacos are very full and very hearty which is awesome! However the Beyond Beef was very salty. My husband had the Beyond beef in the burrito and he also said his was super salty. Very grateful for these plant-based options, but they'd be way better without so much salt. Margaritas were great, but were expensive. Fun, hip, loud atmosphere with friendly servers.

The Grande Burrito was just as advertised: Grande haha. It was huge, filling and delicious. The restaurant was very clean, spacious and the warm lighting was comfortable. The staff members were also friendly and patient. I'm not really one to fret over a service worker's smile but the girl who took my order felt like she was giving me a genuine one even at the end of her shift.

The place looks great and has a great atmosphere. The staff was really great. The food was awful. Maybe if you live somewhere they don't Mexican food it might be okay but being in the southwest this food was a disgrace. I had tacos that looked good but tasted like cheap mexican food made by someone that had never had mexican food. Taco Bell tasted way better than this place. If you want a cocktail and hangout this might be your place but a school lunch Cafeteria has better tasting Mexican food then this

I decided to give this new taco place a try last week. I've been meaning to try for a while since they opened. I will say that every time I drive by this restaurant there is always a pretty good size crowd at the restaurant. I use the online ordering option which you know I absolutely love doing. I was a little surprised how expensive the tacos were. I ordered two of the green chili pork tacos. They were very good and a nice size. I was impressed with the flavor and I like the salsa too. What I did not like was the price. They were $5.30 each. I did order the chips and guac which I thought were very good also. A lot of chips and they were light and perfectly seasoned with salt. The guacamole was delicious. Not sure if I will go back in the future just because of the price issues but a solid effort on the tacos for them.

First time trying this place and it was pretty good. Interesting combinations of products for something a little out of the ordinary. Not fast food.

We ordered carry out and we were less than impressed with our order. I came when the food was expected to be ready, only to have to sit and wait in the restaurant for another 20 minutes. Our food was just okay - I've had Torchy's before but this one missed the mark. They messed up a couple of tacos for my family and we were disappointed with the service and our order being mixed up. The queso was the saving grace but I'm not sure if it was enough to keep us rushing back unfortunately!

The food was good, I selected the grande burrito and paid extra for the green chile pork burrito. What received was a tortilla filled with beans, sour cream, and guacomole, with 1chunk of meat! I kept expecting with the next bite... but it never happened just beans. I explained to the cashier my concerns, she said without the burrito as proof she could do nothing. I wasn't looking for a replacment, I was letting her know there was a problem. she wasn't interested so I did the Google review instead. I probably won't be back.

Food is amazing, definitely get the chips & queso. This location unfortunately is suffering from loooooong wait times. The last 3 times I was here, I had to wait over 20 minutes for queso and one taco. The Camelback and Tatum locations don't take anywhere near as long to get their food order out, so I'm not sure what's going on with this one. Even when the place isn't busy, it's still a long wait. I'd recommend ordering ahead to-go.

One of the many great taco places in this area of Gilbert. Every time I order the Green Chile Queso + Chips, because cheese is always a good plan. I love the cocktails here; they are made fresh and served over nugget ice. I have had many tasty tacos, a recent favorite was the Taco of the Month, The Washingtonian. Every worker I have been in contact with was helpful and happy. This place is definitely in our taco night rotation.

The food was pretty good and the portions were really good, but the prices were way high for tacos. When I came, I think it was almost closer to $20 for one taco. I thought one order consisted of like 2 to 3 tacos.

Always a favorite. The green chile queso and chips is a must get at this restaurant. My go-tos are the tipsy chicken and the trailer park and maybe the taco of the month if it sounds appealing. I personally haven't had any of their alcoholic beverages but I've heard the Paloma is good The team there is great, everyone is friendly and helpful and the restaurant is very lively and fun. Can't wait to be able to sit outside when the weather is nicer.
