Guac and Guacamole & Chips Steak Taco Curry Shrimp Taco Pineapple Mezcal
Nikki H.

Love, love, love the guac. Usually if my guac isn't good, that ruins the entire meal for meal. It was really flavorful. The curry shrimp taco was delicious. The steak taco was not as pleasant to me. I think the cojito was too much with the steak, cream a, and pickles onions. It was just a bit too pungent for my liking. The mezcal was awesome! Food was affordably priced!

Wanda T.

Great drinks. Definitely a must try. I had mojitos and tasted like the original. Blue pina colada needed a bit more alcohol. The pineapple mezcal tasted like Cancun, lol. Very good. Salud!!

Checking It Out
Dixie B.

Family members wanted to visit Automatic Taco, so we visited this counter in the very busy food court near the Washington Street (Main) Post Office. There was a line, so we waited for a few minutes to get in our order. After ordering, you walk to a service center to get your water and utensils. The tacos were decent, but they have no brewed TEA? In South Carolina? I mean, I know every culture has moved in, but, please! Allow us our TEA. Strangely enough, no venue here offers a regular iced tea.

Vegan Brussel sprouts and vegan tacos
Nishi S.

As a vegan, I only found a couple of options for taco but liked that they were very accommodating to make some vegan tacos and vegan Brussel sprouts, food was okay and service was great. Since this is a food court there was many options to pick from, was helpful for vegans like us. Our friend got some non-vegans items and they were happy too.

My rating is based only on what I ate that day. Automatic Taco once a food truck, but now at the Commons. My niece ordered a snack of Fundido Cheese Dip and she got the chocolate mousse. The dip was good, but as it cooled so did the cheese, and it was like mozzarella cheese when it has cooled down. It was still chewy but not dippable. The chocolate mousse was tasty too. Planning on visiting again soon.

KBBQ & al pastor

This spot is located within the Commons food hall, you can choose from several vendors and find seating in their common area. We ordered the Mexican corn, pork al pastor, chile relleno, and KBBQ tacos. The chile relleno was the best bite we had, delivering on flavor. However, the other options were average. The Mexican corn and KBBQ tacos seemed to lack that extra zest we were hoping for, while the pork al pastor was excessively sweet. The Commons appeared a tad limited with the food choices so it's not a bad option if you're looking for a quick bite.

Love this place! It's located inside the Greenville Commons (kinda like a food hall) near Unity Park - great location, great food and great service. We were visiting on the Fourth of July and the Greenville Commons area was PACKED, but we ordered and received our food super quickly despite the crowd. We got the grilled steak, chorizo, and pork pastor tacos - all of which tasted like a firework going off in my mouth (SO GOOD SO FLAVORFUL!). We all thought two tacos were sufficient and filled us up for dinner. We also ordered the salsa trio and chips but would love to try the guacamole next time. Really fresh ingredients and would absolutely go back again.

I went for a quick bite on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't too busy but the commons itself was. I was really happy with how easy to read the menu was and how many cool options there are for tacos. I tried the Korean pork belly taco and it was so good and the flavors fit so well together. It had cashews and kimchi but the kimchi wasn't spicy which was great for me preference. The commons just expanded their eating area so there are more places to sit and have fun with friends

Rachel P.

What a cool taco spot! I liked the location inside The Commons food hall, and the taco options are so original. Not only that, but they're executed super well. We tried 7 different tacos, and all of them tasted fantastic. That says a lot in my opinion. If you're in the area and looking for a tasty and quick lunch, try this for real!

Nashville Hot Chicken , Korean Pork Belly , Chips and Salsa
Brianna H.

10/10! The food was absolutely delicious, well balanced flavors and textures. With the Nashville Hot Chicken, you are given the choice of MILD, MED or HOT, which I appreciated. I went with the mild and it was just that, slight spice but so perfect with the crema sauce and the chopped pickles. The Korean Pork Belly was my favorite, it was perfectly executed, and the flavors were THERE!! Savory and somewhat sweet and a nutty crunch, excellent. The tacos were always filled proportionally, which was really nice for the price. The chips were good, but thicker than I typically prefer. So with that, I would 100% recommend eating here and will be a return customer. So yummy, thanks Automatic Taco

Taco menu
laurel s.

These tacos were divine. fresh and healthy and tasty and colorful and fast. I let the staff know I needed gluten free & dairy free and they were so reassuring that this request was easy and normal for them. Wish I could build a little portal to this place into my home in Colorado. Thanks for lunch!

Hands down, the best tacos in Greenville!
Kelly T.

Automatic Taco just keeps getting better! We are enjoying expanded food and drink menus (excellent margaritas in pretty glasses!) and also their location at The Commons. Great options here of indoor and outdoor seating or taking your food to go for a picnic nearby at Unity Park. Go now!

Pastor, Nashville Hot Chicken, butter chicken and a spicy margarita.

Quint and quiet little place that is hidden away off the main drag. Awesome cocktails, and you…read morecan't just have one :-) Darken and cozy place with comfy chairs and booths. Good friendly service table side and at the bar area.

Vault and Vator was our last stop of the night, and finding it was a little confusing which is part…read moreof the fun of a true speakeasy. It is found tucked behind the building with only a small, letter-sized paper sign marking the entrance. No flashy signage, no obvious storefront, which adds to the appeal if you're into that kind of hunt. Walking up to it late at night can be a little intimidating but it is well lit which I greatly appreciated! Once inside, the space is dimly lit and small, which makes for a genuinely intimate setting. I'd say it's good for a quieter, more conversational vibe rather than a loud night out. We went with the bartender's choice: pick a base liquor, then two words to describe what you're after. I went with vodka and "slightly sweet, refreshing," for $18. The bartender nailed the brief but it wasn't a drink I'd think about again or specifically order by name. Solid execution, forgettable flavor. Service was the real standout. Our bartender was excellent at walking us through the concept and translating vague requests into something that actually worked. That, plus the atmosphere, is enough to bring me back to see what else is on the menu since we made it there just in time for last call so I ended up only having one drink.

The name is written UP, in capital letters, which I appreciate as a safety measure. In lowercase,…read moresomeone could wander in off River Street assuming this was a ground-floor operation and be startled to find themselves on the eighth floor of an Embassy Suites. The capitals settle it. You are up. You are on the roof. Nobody is confused. I ordered There's a Lettuce Wrap!, exclamation point and all, which arrives as seven honey-soy glazed fried chicken wraps. Seven is an odd number to commit to, and I respected it. The chicken was crisp, the glaze landed somewhere between sweet and salty, and the lettuce made me feel like I'd ordered something light. I would eat it again tomorrow. The Reedy River and the Blue Ridge sit out past the railing doing their scenic work, and plenty of rooftops figure the skyline can cover for a mediocre kitchen. This one didn't need the cover. Mrs. W. was along, and UP earned her approval, which I never assume. She has standards and they are not up for negotiation, so watching a rooftop restaurant clear them felt like watching a long shot come in. The elevator ride back to the ground floor felt like a demotion.

5 star view 4 star drinks…read more2 star food Seems clear. Apps, or a quick bite, or a long day and just need food...it's great. Looking for a meal to remember? Move on. Cocktail and a view! Must do. If I ran this place I would stick to appetizers, flat breads, and cocktails. I would also make the sunset a bigger feature, more accessible (that side of the patio is as roped off and signs prevented you from even walking over to get a photo)....also the patio seating need to be smaller and more broken up. Anyhow view f the city is great and the staff is so kind, and helpful! And bartenders are good!

IIIII like good food and I cannot lie…read more.... I will preface this all by saying I have been coming to Greenville for almost 15 years for work. maybe only once a year but still... I love the city and the people. Fall for Greenville is fantastic!! Onto my review -- I was visiting Greenville for work this past week and was staying at the Aloft. I did a quick online search for a new food / dining destination when i saw ABYSS... Since it is right beside my hotel I decide to give it a go! Wow, what a treat. I sat at the bar. Bartender was top shelf Ali i think... She made me a paper plane without having to look it up . The happy hour menu was a pretty amazing value so i tried a couple of pieces from it. Bluefin "nachos" ie wontons.... Great!! Scallops and bacon sliders.. great!! Then I decided to also add the Wagyu - crispy rice. Also great!! But you know what else really sets this place apart? The Fries! Crazy but here's my take. Everyone is doing fancy pretentious, parm, truffle garlic blah blah blah.... These fries had a unique slender (thin but wide) cut, seasoned lightly. and cooked to perfection. you can tell they take it all very seriously here. from the Chefs all the way to the greeters. It's like they all took Yes chef training at "The Bear" IYKYK...Fantastic attentive service. Highly recommend and look forward to visiting again!

I don't know where to start. Love this place! Love the atmosphere. Love the servers…read more Absolutely, love the food!!!. Restaurant is attached to the Aloft in downtown Greenville. I got the raw oysters (3/$9) during happy hour where everything was 50%. Also got the bang, bang shrimp, burger and fried chix sandwich. All of the food was HOT, as it should be, and PERFECT. CANT MISS SPOT FOR HAPPY HOUR. LOVE IT!!!
