    Yelp Fam! I'm back with another review! Over the last couple of years, I've made it a point to go to Chattanooga with my sister and brother-in-law. It's normally a day trip during the spring or summer where we just walk around downtown, sit by the water, and enjoy the outdoors. There's always so much to see. Sometimes, you can even catch a vendor event where folks are selling different items all along downtown. There are always people around--whether it's at the aquarium, on the sand, or just walking around. It's such a lively place. Aside from the activities, there are some great places to eat. My sister and brother-in-law recommended that we try Taco 423. After about 2.5 hours of walking, we had definitely worked up an appetite, and I was in the mood for tacos. The place was a bit of a walk from where we were, but I needed the exercise. The inside was cool, kind of dimly lit, and they had TVs and a bar if that's your thing. The service was really nice and attentive. Even though it wasn't my sister and brother-in-law's first time there, the staff made a point to welcome me and share some recommendations from the menu. Now, let's get to the food. My sister and brother-in-law opted for the tacos with beans and rice, and of course, what Mexican feast is complete without queso? I, on the other hand, went for the chicken enchiladas with refried beans and rice! I order this dish whenever I go because it's always so good! I even got an extra side of queso because I knew one wouldn't be enough. The food was filling--so much so that we didn't need to take anything to go. That walk back to the car came in handy because we were stuffed! Usually, I need a to-go box, but not this time! I would definitely recommend trying this place out. The wall art is amazing, the bathrooms were clean, the inside is spacious, and I think you'll really enjoy yourself.

    This food was not good. Not at all, especially for the price. We were finishing our day at a conference and walked down from the Westin and got food to go. I got a chicken enchilada dish and was charged two extra dollars for sour cream. We didn't wait long and the bartender was nice enough. But getting to our room and trying our food was so disappointing. The chicken was rubbery and cheap, the refied beans tasted off. It's an easy thing to cook but even the rice was cold and tasteless . Not even the sour cream could fix the taste. We should have gone somewhere else especially for the 18 dollars plus tip we spent. Go anywhere else

    So one of the guys I work with goes here 3 times per week. They have his fajitas ready and waiting on hime the same time each of those days. How cool, right? They have really good food and the service is good. Photos are included. Give them a try as you enjoy West Village!

    Wow, the food is still amazing... Service was just kind of rude. And not friendly. I'll still come back here because it's a really cool place to look at and you can't beat the guacamole but something has changed since the last time I was here just the overall feeling of hospitality is gone.

    Service was not friendly but it was fast. Probably because the place was empty. (That should have been warning enough). Instead, I stuck around and ordered Fajita Nachos. Sounds simple, right? It came out extremely fast, BUT... every bite was hard and chewy. Not from being over cooked, it was from the poor quality meat they use. (Explains the cheap prices.) The steak and the chicken tasted identical and each one left a big wad of hard grisly meat in your mouth that was impossible to chew and swallow. This was an absolutely horrendous dining experience. I highly recommend that you avoid. Only cost me $20 for such a terrible experience and within an hour, it's not sitting well. This place looks kinda cool from outside but mark my words, it will not make it in this high rent plaza with such subpar food.

    Service was great, food even better. Birria and carne tacos were delicious, margarita was strong, Pacifico was smooth. Ambiance/music was nice. Definitely coming back!

    Man, the food portions were huge. Flavor was good also. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Great spot close to the Westin Chattanooga downtown.

    Great service, yummy tacos, awesome location! Located in downtown Chattanooga just minutes from the Tennessee aquarium and other attractions. I'm unsure of the parking situation as my family and I walked to this restaurant from our nearby hotel. We arrived on a Saturday evening around 8:30p (family of 4). It wasn't too busy but the bar space was busy due to college sports. We were greeted as soon as we entered and we were seated right away. We were provided chips and salsa, menus and silver ware as we seated. Our server was so sweet! I didn't catch her name but she was very attentive and helpful. We tried the steak tacos and the birria tacos. Birria tacos were delicious! The sauce was lovely. The steak tacos were good but felt a bit dry. I was surprised it didn't come with slices of lime. Overall atmosphere was comfortable and casual. Very cute restaurant with modern decor and furniture. I loved all of the custom murals and wall art!

    Chimichanga with queso, rice, and beans

    The food was really good. The salsa with the free chips was really good. Just a little kick It took forever for service. We waited a long time for our food and finally had to ask for our ticket. It was not especially busy in there when we went. we sat at the bar and ordered a soda and a water, and that took quite a while to get as well.

    Great food and drinks. On a recent trip to Chattanooga my wife and I came across this place. We shared the sampler plater and the margarita sampler. They have a sauce that has the right burn that came with the sampler platter. If we're back in Chattanooga we will be back for another meal or two.

    Unknown Caller was a cute, little fun vibe! We sat at the bar so the wait wasn't too long but I've…read morepassed it before and have seen a line so just be aware. The drinks were really good and the bartenders were super friendly! The food, is just snacks so you may want to eat somewhere before that, definitely more of a cocktail experience. They also have a small Photo Booth tucked away in the corner that's free and will text you the photos so make sure to check that out! Overall, will visit again.

    Great drinks and service, but beware the checkout screen…read more ​The drinks and service at Unknown Caller are genuinely fantastic. I highly recommend the "Bartender's Choice" cocktail option--the staff is incredibly skilled, and the drinks they crafted were awesome. ​However, management needs to fix their highly deceptive checkout flow. The bar chooses not to bake Tennessee's mandatory 15% Liquor-by-the-Drink tax into their menu prices. When the bartender flips the POS tablet to pay, the system completely hides the itemized receipt. It jumps straight to a final total that includes a combined 24.25% in state and liquor taxes. ​To make matters worse, the screen presents ridiculous suggested tip options of 20%, 30%, and 40%--which are calculated on top of that heavily taxed final total rather than the subtotal. If you just tap a prompt, you end up aggressively tipping on hidden taxes. ​Come for the excellent cocktails and great bartenders, but ignore the suggested buttons and manually calculate your tip based on the actual menu price of your drinks.
