I loved the tacos that i got! The service was great and i loved how inside looked! The food was given to me so quick!

Amazing .. Service was on point and Tacos were Great .. I will definitely be back ..

Their Margaritas are the BEST. Ask for hector as a server! The best service ever! All of the workers were so sweet and friendly.

The food was delicious and the service was over the top. My friend was visiting from out of town and ordered something by mistake. The manager Zach James went out of his way to accommodate her since she wasn't used to ordering there. He made a special food item for her that wasn't even on the menu since she is allergic to several food items. We will be eating there again for sure. read more

Rusty Taco - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

Rusty Taco was a great food experience. I was visiting from Alabama and wasn't use to the Texas queso (which I could not eat). The manager, Zach James, went above and beyond to make me an entree that isn't even in the menu. Thank you Zach for being so accommodating read more

If I could give zero stars I would. This was the worst taco shop I have ever tasted. The gentleman at the front was kind, but my goodness the food resembled dog food. This is right across another taco place.... I have no idea how this one is still in business. I have never left a review but I downloaded yelp just to warn yall about how bad this place is. Absolute caca! read more

Rusty Taco - $9.38 for very small serving of Chorizo Egg and cheese... Won't be door dashing this again - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

I love Fuzzy's and everyone compares this place to it, so while checking out UNT we decided to give it a go. Tried a fish taco, the rusty taco (pulled pork) and black beans. The smallest amount of fish on a taco I've ever seen. Absolutely no flavor and the corn tortillas weren't even warm. Made for a complete rubbery exterior, so I just ate the inside slaw. The rusty taco, while it had a nice kick of heat, was absolutely nothing special. I left most of it. The black beans were ok, although the sunflower seeds mixed in were weird. Fuzzy's is so much better. The employees here are loud and annoying and you can't speak because they yell at each other. Won't be back. read more

Great casual spot for street tacos and margaritas. The tacos here are small, so you'll need to order two or three if you're hungry. The queso is really good, and they have a nice patio for hanging out. The staff were friendly and the restaurant itself was clean. read more

Probably some of the best margaritas I've had! Also their queso is delicious! I love street tacos, and these were pretty tasty! It does get pretty packed during warmer weather. The wait is totally worth it. If you try this place out you can't go wrong with a strawberry margarita. read more

Rusty Taco - Strawberry margarita, beef tacos, chips and queso! - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

This is a phenomenal taco place that's always packed, no matter the time of day. Not only are the prices cheap, but the food is just as good. I ordered the chips and guac, and two tacos: the fried chicken taco and the fried fish taco (My friend ordered the same thing, just with all the toppings in it). There was a huge amount of chips (chip refills are also free), and while the guac wasn't as seasoned as I would have liked, it was creamy, flavorful, and only $3. The tacos keep me coming back for more. The fried chicken taco had two strips of fried chicken inside, which had a thick breading and a great crunch. The fried fish was amazing - fried perfectly on the outside but soft enough to melt in my mouth on the inside. The sauce it was paired with was also a spicy kick. It's worth it. I would come back to Denton just to eat here. read more

My favorite place to be. The margaritas are fantastic and staff is amazing. I go every Monday for their 3 dollar margaritas.

The tacos and drinks were fantastic. Diana was amazing! She welcomed us and knew our orders perfectly! Thank you so much and thanks to her!

I cannot stress this enough but thier churros are one of the best I have tried so far. I don't care what other's say and judge me about it but it is literaly so freaking good. The caramel inside it is the best freaking part! They also have really good happy hour which is super cheap! I got thier queso which was pretty good. Im not a big fan of margaritas but they make thiers fairly strong which is nice. I got tacos once too which was small but pretty good. A great place to hang out and eat! read more

I would have given this place 4 stars but the tacos are $1.25 more than the Plano location. Also the taco bowl is $9.50 !!! Really that is crazy made more than any menu items! I won't be back!! Definitely note worth the price. read more

Rusty Taco - Too pricey $9.50 for a chicken bowl - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

Had the pineapple habanero Margarita . Very tasty with a nice bit of kick from the habanero. Had to go back in a couple of times to ask about it, but finally heard that they had to make a new batch of the juice. Went on a Sunday afternoon and they had live music. Love that blues guitar! read more

Much needed girls night! I am always in Denton Square and we never stopped by Here . So glad we did this weekend ! The margaritas were delicious! I had the Baja Shrimp Tacos (fried) and the %10 Original. Can't find the words to describe it! They were the perfect taco size and it hit just the spot ! We also ordered nachos thinking it was a smaller portion size - NOPE! Lol everything was beyond yummy and definitely will come back ! read more

I feel terrible for the employees, they work with what they got. This review is for the owners and management, honestly you guys should take a look what is going on in your store. Understaffed is always an issue when I walk in, the employees look dreadful, they always seem to hate their jobs without a smile on their face. Funny enough, I highly doubt the owners will look at this review, it shows the owners just see the employees as dollar signs or replaceable. This use to be my favorite taco joint to come hang out, but the vibe is dead whenever you are greeted with depressing employees who clearly seem to hate their job. I really hope the owners get their crap together but at the end I just feel like they really couldn't care less. Word of mouth will probably kill this place over time. read more

Food is cheap and delicious. Love this place. The people who work here are always so nice. Next visit I'm trying their margaritas because I hear they're pretty strong read more

Rusty Taco - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

Brought my dog to the patio and was immediately told to leave as soon as she barked at a dog that was passing by. Very friendly pup but the employee who told me to leave was INSANELY rude about how he came about it. Didn't even give me a chance to talk to him when he explained they don't "allow reactive dogs". Another customer who brought their dog came to say hi and said it was ridiculous they were kicking us out. read more

So at this point I think I'm a semi-regular. I've been here a number of times, and I think I've had every taco except the shrimp one. Missed it I guess. But I was here for a little food and bar crawl and this was our third stop. Thank you to Heather and the staff at Rusty because they treat our group really well. I am not a margarita drinker AT ALL, but I tasted the watermelon jalapeno margarita and was actually impressed. We all enjoyed our tacos and the general consensus was that the Habanero salsa was the best thing to put on the tacos. They need to bottle and sell it. It was a hot one out but the patio area was pretty decent with the misters going and a few of the group tried the ring ross game.... and no one hooked the ring. All and all, we were happy and stuffed and onto the next venue. Thanks for everything. read more

If you're on the square and looking for decent tacos I would recommend checking this place out. The fried chicken taco and the grilled shrimp taco are both pretty good, but nothing that special. However their happy hour deal is amazing! All appetizers and margs are 1/2 off so you can get bottomless chips, queso, and guacamole for $3. Their margaritas are STRONG (mix of tequila & everclear) and the flavors are great and only $2 during Happy Hour. They're the only place in Denton that I know of that has mango margaritas and they are delicious! Overall there are definitely better tacos places in Denton but their happy hour deal is one of the bests! read more

This is your hole in the wall kind of franchise that you can get cheap street tacos from! And they're delicious! Did I mention cheap already? I've tried most of their tacos and sauces - you cannot go wrong with any of their choices. read more

Love this place! I got 6 different types of taco's and they were all delicious. There is both outdoor and indoor seating. I will go back here the next time we go out to Denton. Only negatice was at 7 oclock at night they did tell us they wrere out of some of their ingredients and were unable to make some of their tacos. read more

I am 52 years old and I have never left a yelp review. I am from Houston and HANDS DOWN...The Rusty Taco not only has the BEST Tacos I have EVER had...and the Queso is to die for! The brisket taco was awesome but the grilled Cod Taco was OFF THE HOOK! The flavor and taste was not fishy and had incredible flavor...I can't say enough. Oh, one more thing...the mango/strawberry/frozen margarita hit the spot! Not too sweet and not too tart...just perfect! You gotta try this place...it will NOT disappoint! read more

I got the shrimp taco and chicken taco. The taco prices were okay for one taco ~$2.50. They were both tasty, but there wasn't much of it. There's also different sauces that you can add to your tacos. The place was busy when I came, so I had to sit in the outdoor area which was nice but it was chilly. The staff was friendly. Overall, I might come back to try the other tacos, or maybe explore some other taco places around. -they also have punch cards, for each taco you buy, you get the 10th one free. (Denton location only) read more

Interesting combos, but the traditional fajita options are their strong suit. I look forward to trying the nachos.

Great food Love eating here But employees need to pull hair back or in net. Not appetizing seeing someone make your food with their hair dangling on top of it. I mean really? read more

Rusty Taco - a woman in a restaurant kitchen - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

Me and my family eat here ALL THE TIME. It's just SO GOOD. The customer service, the food, everything is just so great here. There is even sometimes a cat that lives nearby name Tarzan that will come to visit every once in a while. If your on a trip in Denton, or just passing through, don't leave without coming to the Rusty Taco. read more

Seemed like a hopping place due to the line. Way understaffed was the reason. We got our food after a decent wait, food was flavorful, but my tacos were cold. Best thing about it was the cold Shiner. Tables were dirty, trash cans were overflowing. For $40+ for 3 people I expect at least warm tacos. read more

I liked this place. The taco menu is pretty creative, and two I got (the ground beef one and their signature one) were good. The tortillas are corn, so keep that in mind - I know some people prefer flour. I also got their "cheap" margarita - it's advertised as that, so I'm not being mean! It's $5 and I drank maybe half of it. I thought maybe they were being silly about the name, but no. I got immediate indigestion. They have a pretty good bit going, but I think there are similar setups where the tacos are tastier. However, if I was in the same neighborhood, eating and barhopping, I would probably go back. read more

They are not stingy with the salsa (which is a must for a girl who likes spice in her life)! I walked in with a coupon for a free taco & was assisted quickly. Was not treated any differently because I had a coupon- in fact she offered me a cup for water with a smile! Love that they're friendly here! Not to mention my taco was beautiful I almost didn't eat it :) read more

Rusty Taco - This is their Fish Taco (Fried)! Don't bump it aside until you try it! - Tex-Mex Near Me - Denton, Texas

A fun little place to grab a brew and some tacos. Prices are good , food is great , atmosphere is " college life ". It happens to be a perfect patio day and that adds to the ambiance. I'd recommend giving it a try. read more

Have been here twice now and have loved everything. I turned the club chicken taco into a bowl. The cashier recommended half rice and half salad. Amazing! Everyone who works here is really friendly too. Looking forward to my next time here. read more

The food and margaritas are pretty good, and the happy hour deals are great, but service is frustrating. I spent 10 minutes on hold when I called to ask about when their happy hour was, so I ended up driving there. A woman at the counter said they hadn't been busy all day (it turns out there was no happy hour that day), so I have no idea why no one ever answered my phone call. read more

two cooks were laughing at / talking about me directly in front of me. despite not speaking spanish, i can pick out my name in a conversation food and everyone else's service was absolutely fantastic. but the interaction with the cooks was uncomfortable and rude. read more

I'm only giving this place 3 stars because the tacos were very bland to me. I'm a taco connoisseur so I know a good taco when I try one but their tacos were just Okay. The pLace was pretty busy when I went so maybe I caught them on a bad day but I'm not sure if I will go back. read more

I've had many weird experiences here over the few years I've lived in Denton. It gets so crazy here during happy hour, (crazy cheap drink specials) especially when it's about to end...while university classes are still in session. The margaritas are a hit or miss...literally. The sangria swirl and jalapeño watermelon are good, when they're not completely out of them (which happens almost every time I've been there). The food is below average, especially for the price. If you've been there a few times, you know which tacos are terrible and which ones are edible, at best. If you're vegetarian, just forget about it. You have two options and they're both very weak. Everyone goes there solely for the drinks, which is just about the only thing going for them. I saw that they've tried adding new menu options, but I wasn't too impressed. The staff always seem super stressed, and the front kitchen always looks like a hot mess. Also, about a year ago I saw one of the cashiers cry at the register because she was so overwhelmed by the crowd trying to grab their drinks before happy hour, so much so that she accidentally ran my card 5 times. It all got sorted in the end, but I never saw her again after that day. Like I said, strange things at Rusty's. Come for the drinks, go for food literally anywhere else. read more

Besides part of order missing the tacos really had no flavor and the street "corn" (like the 4 kernels) was the WORST street corn I've ever had. 2 stars because our food was still warm when it was delivered, which really has nothing to do with the restaurant and everything to do with the delivery driver. read more
