Our waiter was Antonio and he was super nice, funny, and had great opinions about the menu! The drinks are superb, but I definitely was in for a surprise when the drinks came out. Hand for size comparison 😂 definitely eat here it was great! All the dishes my friends got were amazing, great portion sizes. I’ll be back! -
TaTaco is amazing!! It is one of my favorite Mexican taco places in the area, definitely my favorite in Durham. We often drive 35 minutes from our home in south Raleigh just to eat here. We don't know what they to make even simple rice and beans taste so good but it is magical. Our favorite dish is the enchilada verde, but everything else I tried like the Diablo shrimp dish with rice and the chicken soup have been amazing as well. Do not sleep on this place! -
This place is amazing. The food is great quality and the service good. I got the goat birria ramen. The broth is very flavorful. I wish it has some more fresh elements in it such as shredded cabbage or something to cut the heavy taste of the goat. It was very well done tho. Would definitely go back. -
Believe the hype. Its that good!!! Friendly service. Excellent drinks. Wonderful wonderful food. The chips are served with a bean dip to fight over. My husband and I split the taco sampler. You can pick your protein across six tacos. The dish comes with beans and rice. It was the best beans and rice I've ever had. Tacos were excellent. We were too full to finish all the tacos. We will be back. -
We got the guac which was really good, but the fajitas were quite disappointing. The chicken was very dry and tasted mainly of carbon yet the vegetables were basically raw. The corn tortillas were already ripped when I opened them up. The margaritas were alright.
