We ate here on a Saturday afternoon after touring Northwood campus. The location is great, and there is plenty of parking behind the restaurant or on the street. While we had a great time, the food was just okay. The people were awesome and we had a great time. They have put a ton of time and effort into the atmosphere, decorations and the naming of their dishes. It's a super fun place to walk around and chill. The nachos were amazing, but our tacos weren't really all that great. I like the soft shell corn varieties, but the pork tacos were not good at all. The chicken varieties were decent, but the chicken meat was dry. Overall, it was a good experience but the food was not as good as we were expecting. We will try it again next time.

Two tacos are placed on a black rectangular serving plate on a wooden table. The taco on the left contains seasoned ground beef, lettuce, diced tomatoes, and is topped with chopped green onions and a lime wedge. The taco on the right contains shredded meat, lettuce, and is topped with chopped green onions and corn. A small piece of food is on the plate near the tacos, and a black bag is partially visible in the background.

We recently had a team outing and Proper Taco was a hit! All of my colleagues loved it, and I am excited to bring more people to experience the food and atmosphere. I was very pleased with the Gluten and Dairy Free options, and the cashier had great recommendations! Highly recommend The Cleveland with Chicken.

Great Tacos! Cool little restaurant in downtown. Awesome staff with trendy decorations.

Nachos

The restaurant is clean and the staff are very friendly. We ordered vegetarian items and were very impressed by the number of vegetarian and protein options on the menu. Would love to see some seafood options in the future, but perhaps those are seasonal. The nachos were our favorite. The spicy guac is actually spicy and the queso is really good. Probably the best place in town for solid nachos. Unfortunately we weren't impressed by the tacos. We felt like they were overstuffed and bland. We tried several vegetarian and vegan tacos but weren't huge fans. Maybe the meat tacos are better? We asked for a straw and the gentleman said they charge for straws so that was interesting. We would definitely come again for the nachos though!

Great atmosphere, kind staff, amazing food! Stopped in for a late lunch and were delighted with the staff kindness as we started at the menu. The food was prepared quickly and tasted amazing!

Nathan Nachos - A plate of nachos features tortilla chips topped with melted cheese, sliced green onions, and crumbled cheese. The dish is served on a patterned tray, with additional side dishes including a bowl of coleslaw and a bowl of salad visible in the background. The table is made of wood, and utensils are placed on a napkin nearby. The setting appears to be a casual dining environment.

Awesome menu with tons of options for carnivores and herbivores alike! Nachos were layers of deep flavor and a touch heat. Tacos perfectly cooked and toppings plentiful! Proper Taco is a must!

Trio of tacos Remington, Brittnay and Pollo. - A rectangular tray with a black and white pattern holds three tacos with different fillings. The top taco contains shredded meat, lettuce, onions, and pink onions, garnished with cilantro. The middle taco has shredded meat, yellow peppers, and herbs. The bottom taco features a piece of fish or meat with sauce, onions, and sliced green peppers. The tacos are served on corn tortillas, with visible sauces and fresh toppings.

This place is amazing I had Remington taco, Brittnay and Pollo. Could only eat two they were so full and flavorful. Husband had the Beetlejuice from the Halloween menu and loved it especially the pickled beets. Salsa and chips were phenomenal they chips were seasoned with a taco seasoning. We got the hot salsa. We will be back for sure. I want to try all the tacos.

Delish! Got a variety of tacos, nachos, chips and queso and everything was great. Also picked up some silly gifts for Father's Day.

Tacos are huge! I may have picked poorly, but one was too spicy for me. People were nice and quick.

I highly recommend the Oden with braised pork. I mean, where else can you get Taziki on a taco?! VERY messy, but delicious!

New to Midland. We enjoy trying out new restaurants/bars in the surrounding area. This place was…read morerecommended to us by a friend so we thought we'd give it a try. Staff is not friendly, food is average and overpriced. Tried to pay the bill and apparently they only accept cash so the waitress just pointed to the ATM machine. Thanks, there are plenty of other options, we will spend our money other places. I never leave reviews but I am so tired of paying for food/service that is subpar and just accepting it.

Do you ever wonder how there's some people you meet in life that you've never spoken to before and…read morethe first time they say something to you it's out of pure hatred despite never interacting with you before? That's the overall feeling of this place. There's only so many places I've been to where I've felt threatened by stares and could tell that nobody wanted me there just for existing. The owner who I can only assume I haven't seen sober yet has been very rude and off putting each time I went to that bar, at this point since you clearly hate your career why not sell the place and take that money to some other investment? Maybe if you have a kink for feeling uncomfortable and unwanted I'd see the appeal of this place and honestly if it was just this owners attitude I wouldn't even make this review. But it's not, the beers for some reason are $6 if not more for a bottle and there's only few select cities I've been to where I've paid that or more, so people clearly don't come here for cheap beer. I don't mean to disrespect the cook here either but considering how expensive that food is and having half of the menu be Mexican food is beyond me when it's not good either. At this point I truly feel sorry for the workers that have to stick it out at this place. So lastly we come to the fact that the bar only takes cash. I don't know any bar in the entire United States that only accepts cash, I have a feeling if you told the IRS to stop by the 702 would be no more. Last time I was there I decided not to drink alcohol and the owner looked visibly pissed, I got 2 pitchers of Diet Coke, soda, and I was charged $30 in cash for it. So clearly that's not normal and the owner hates me even though I haven't done a damn thing to anyone there. Truly this place fucking sucks and I wouldn't know why anyone on god's green earth would ever want to stop by
