I’ll be back soon! 5 stars.

Had to stop into White Duck Taco while in downtown Asheville and wow, the steak and cheese taco was so good! Super flavorful and cooked just right. The place has such a chill vibe and the staff was friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in town.

Great lunch option. The tacos were yummy and the casual setting made for an easy in and out experience. They stay pretty crowded but we had no trouble getting a table. The steak and befall tacos were my favorite!

Wanted to come back here while we visited in downtown Asheville. Not as great as the previous river side location but still enjoyable. This is our go-to lunch spot for tacos. They come a la cart so order as many as your hunger allows.

A local recommended this place and it was rated high in reviews. And we agree! Loved the tacos and the environment. Delicious unique flavors and so filling! Highly recommend. I had the shrimp and fish tacos and the Zorba. And we kept the fun cup for a souvenir!

Great tacos and great experience. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We got the chips and salsa trio and ordered five different tacos just to try as much as we could. Top two were the Pork Belly Taco (phenomenal) and the Bangkok Shrimp Taco. I also really liked the Steak & Cheese Taco. The Zorba (Greek) Taco is great if you don’t want meat, it was like eating a Gyro on a corn tortilla. Very good. Highly recommend, would go back again.

So let’s start this review with saying, they are POPULAR! We got there when they opened and there was instantly a line. And there was a long line during our entire time eating, so if you plan to go keep that in mind. Now I looooove me a good taco and these are pretty good. My favorite place is still DGT in Colorado, but this spot has looooots of options and are vegetarian friendly! We were able to make substitutions for any meat taco with jackfruit. We ordered the Mexican street corn, watermelon with mint, cherry wine slushee (non-alcoholic), banh mi grilled tofu, Bangkok shrimp (subbed with jackfruit), zorba falafel, chicken tikka masala (subbed with jackfruit), and Thai peanut chicken (subbed with jackfruit), and the chocolate pot de creme. The street corn was very bland - I don’t recommend. The watermelon with mint was delicious, but I love watermelon! The Bangkok shrimp was my favorite next to the zorba taco. I loved the seasoning and balance of flavors. There was an issue with our Thai peanut chicken (they gave us chicken)… so we did have to send it back and they quickly prepared a new one. The chocolate dessert was soooooo dense and rich, I’d skip unless you really have a sweet tooth. Overall really good spot for some unique tacos!

We stopped in to have some lunch. Surprisingly fast service and the fish taco was the best. We also had a tofu and black bean taco.
