Sometimes the best meals happen because your original plan falls through. That was exactly the case…read morehere, and honestly... I'm not even a little mad about it. I ordered the veggie tacos with roasted sweet potatoes (skin on, which was absolutely the right call), pepitas, feta, and all the right toppings. Whoever prepped those sweet potatoes deserves a raise because they were cut into the perfect sized pieces. Every bite had a little sweetness, a little crunch, a little saltiness... it just worked. My dining partner ordered the barbacoa tacos, and I didn't even have to ask if they were good. The involuntary "Mmm..." after the first bite answered that question. Four tacos disappeared in record time, followed by, "I could've eaten two more." That's about as glowing of a review as you're going to get. Now let's talk about these tortillas. Handmade. Corn. Tortillas. Are you kidding me? They're the kind of tortillas that had me question every tortilla I've ever eaten. Soft, fresh, and somehow they manage to steal the spotlight even with everything else on the plate being so good. The chips and guacamole were excellent, too. The chips have to be made in-house and they disappeared at an alarming rate. The salsa that came with them had this smoky, fire-roasted, chipotle flavor that kept me reaching for another chip... and then another... and then suddenly I realized I'd eaten way more chips than I intended. The bottled table salsas deserve their own paragraph because they completely confused me... in the best way. They bring three to the table... a green, a red, and a darker red. I kept tasting them individually thinking, "Okay, these are alright." Then I started mixing them. Game over. On their own, each one was solid. Mixed together? That was the magic. I don't know if that's what they intended or if I accidentally stumbled onto the perfect combination, but from that point on, every taco got the salsa trio treatment. The only tiny hiccup was when we first walked in. We were greeted, asked if we wanted menus, and sat ourselves. We waited for a bit thinking someone would come take our order, only to realize it's actually counter service. Once we figured that out, everything was smooth sailing. Not a big deal at all... just something first-time visitors might want to know. Follow the sign "order here" I also loved the layout. You can actually watch them making the food, which somehow makes the wait even harder because everything smells incredible. Two tacos ended up being the perfect light meal for me. Could I have eaten ten? Absolutely. Those two statements can both be true. Meanwhile, my dining partner polished off four barbacoa tacos and was talking about ordering two more. We only ended up here because another place happened to be closed, and honestly, I'm glad it worked out that way. This ended up being one of those meals we keep talked about on the drive home. Oh and the bathrooms?. I walked in and immediately thought, "Whoa... this is a cool bathroom" The lighting had this pinkish-purple glow that made me feel like I'd accidentally wandered into a trendy lounge instead of a taco shop. I honestly wasn't even sure there was regular lighting in there and I didn't look... because the vibe seemed so intentional. Finally, the music. .. upbeat, dance-worthy, the kind that had me bouncing in my seat while waiting for my food. Between the atmosphere, the lighting, and the music, the whole place had me want to hang out a little longer. Zero regrets. I'll absolutely be back... and next time I'm ordering more tacos.

Outstanding Catering and Service! We recently ordered…read morecatering from Taco Boys for a large group event, and they exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh, flavorful, and a huge hit with everyone who attended. The carne asada was perfectly seasoned, the beans were delicious, and the chips and sides complemented the meal perfectly. The ordering process was smooth, the staff was professional and helpful, and everything was prepared on time. Feeding a large group can be challenging, but Taco Boys made it easy with generous portions and excellent quality. If you're looking for reliable catering or simply great tacos, I highly recommend Taco Boys. Their commitment to quality, service, and authentic flavors truly stands out. We will definitely be ordering from them again! Thank you, Taco Boys, for helping make our event a success!

A late-night taco craving with the hubby brought us to Taco Boys for takeout, and it turned out to…read morebe a pretty delicious decision. We ordered the carne asada tacos, carne asada quesadilla, al pastor tacos, and tripa tacos so we could sample a little bit of everything. The carne asada tacos had that savory, grilled flavor I look for, with tender bites of meat tucked into warm tortillas and finished with fresh onion and cilantro. The al pastor had a beautiful balance of smoky, seasoned, and slightly sweet flavors, while the tripa brought a deeper richness and satisfying texture to the lineup. The carne asada quesadilla was another standout--crispy around the edges, melty and cheesy inside, with generous pieces of seasoned carne asada throughout. The salsa bar was definitely a bonus. There was a nice variety of salsas and toppings, so we could build each taco exactly how we wanted. A little onion, cilantro, salsa, and a good kick of heat brought everything together. For a spontaneous late-night taco run, Taco Boys delivered exactly what we were craving--bold flavors, satisfying tacos, and plenty of ways to customize every bite. Definitely worth remembering when the late-night cravings strike.

I arrived here after searching for taco places nearby and after reading some reviews I thought this…read moreplace must be good. I told the nice man at the counter this was my first time and asked for his recommendation on what people order the most. Without hesitation he said the carne asada taco and the fried fish taco. So that's what I ordered. Food was prepared promptly, the restaurant is small, only 1 other table of guests were there. They have a small topping bar with sauces, pico, pickled onions, cilantro & onions, etc...I picked up the sauces, touched the bottom of the plastic squeeze bottles and non of them felt cool to the touch. So I passed on those. While waiting for my food, I noticed the place could really use a cool cleaning. Old, dirty and empty containers that hold utensils looked like they have never been scrubbed with hot soapy water, the floor between the counter and topping bar had a pile of grim and dirt. The windows were dirty and the worst part... the wall AC unit was draining water down the wall and onto the seat at my table hitting me with overspray. When I used the restroom I noticed it could use a good cleaning too. The door had dirty hand marks, the wall tiles were dirty, etc. just overall the place looks like someone has lost their drive to keep up on it. The food... the three bites I took of the carne asada taco had to be spit out, so much fat and gristle it was unpleasant. So I tried the fried fish taco he recommended...it had a very generous portion of fish on two corn tortillas. The fish batter seemed old and dirty. The batter was mushy and a very dark brown color. I took a bite and nothing resembled fish. I broke open the other piece of it and it was a mushy ball of batter, no fish. I dug around and broke open another chunk to find a piece of white flakey fish. I took a bite and it just did not taste good at all. I tossed everything in the trash and left. My advice to the owners...have someone come in with fresh motivated eyes and help you update the untidy things, change your oil more often, and wipe the cutting board off that's used throughout the day to chop the carne that's visible while anyone is standing at the counter. It's gross to see pieces of meat left on the board and who knows how long it's been there and what pieces will be included in our tacos . Disappointed. Won't be back. Hopeful they improve from my feedback and continue on.

This review is just for the burrito because that's all I've had…read more The tortilla is top-notch. Honestly, it's probably the best burrito tortilla I've had from any Mexican spot in Arizona. The problem is the meat. The meat is just average. If they upgraded the meat, this might be the best burrito in Arizona. That's how good the tortilla is. But because the meat doesn't match the tortilla, it ends up being just a really solid burrito instead of an amazing one. I haven't tried anything else on the menu, so I can't speak on the rest of the food. But if we're talking burritos... Best tortilla I've had. Average meat. Good overall, but it leaves you thinking about what it could've been.

We ordered 2 different types of burritos (Cali and chile relleno) and a carnita taco/ birria taco and asada taco. The food was just ok. The meat had no flavor at all. The birria taco is supposed to be crunchy and it was soggy. It just was pretty mediocre tasting and I really wanted to like it. Personally the best part was the crepe that was served at bread and honey

It was stuffed with tender and juicy shredded beef! It was packed with flavor and the dipping sauce was so good! The taco was so cheesy and fresh! Definitely a must get! Horchata ($4.64) was good and refreshing. It had lots of cinnamon on the bottom so definitely needed a good stir prior to drinking.

After attending a performance at the Phoenix Theatre Company, I was on the prowl for a small meal…read more Taco Boy's was in the area, so I made my way. Located on Roosevelt Row, Taco Boy's has a parking lot. It's not big, but I found a spot on a Thursday evening. Ambiance (3.5/5): Taco Boy's is a little chaotic. You order at the counter and then they call your name when your food is ready. It's not a large taco joint, and it's a popular taco joint. Which means you'll see a lot of people cycling in and out, as a lot place to-go orders too. Not the most calm experience, but not an issue for me. You'll also come out smelling like meat lol. They have an open kitchen, and it smells fantastic. The downside is that it sticks to your clothes, too. Service (4/5): Service isn't a big part of the experience, but for what it is, it's pretty smooth. They took my order quickly, I paid relatively quickly, and my food was ready in a reasonable amount of time. Drinks (5/5): I'm a sucker for agua frescas. Taco Boy's delivers. They had four flavors available. I went with the pineapple/mango. It's served in a large cup. Good stuff. Food (5/5): I wasn't terribly hungry so I got a small barbacoa quesadilla. Outside of quesadillas, they have tacos, vampiros, and burritos. Your choice of meat including usual suspects like carne asada, al pastor, chicken, etc. They grill all of their food right in front of you and it's absolutely delicious. Fresh off the grill. Flavorful. Well marinated. Quality meats and ingredients. At the complimentary salsa bar, you can stock up on various sauces, limes, cucumbers, etc. I can't wait to get back to have a heartier meal and try out more of their items. Hands-down, the best Mexican food I've had in Phoenix so far (after a year and a half).
