    I am used to the original rusty taco in Dallas since that is where I live so when I saw they had one here I had to stop in. The tacos were good but a little lighter on the toppings than I am used to at the original one. The queso was great. Chips were a little old but not too bad. It was super busy but only took like 15 minutes to get in and out with my to go order. The green salsa is my favorite.

    We went here for dinner on a Saturday night and it wasn't too busy. We thought the tacos were good but not great; they go really heavy on the sauces and there was a lot of filler (like cabbage). One of our group is lactose intolerant so we orderer no cheese on his and they still put cheese on it (it was the bean taco which could easily be their vegan menu item if they'd make just one taco without cheese and cream based sauce). So they cant accommodate any changes to an order obviously. The grilled cauliflower taco was probably the worst one and we normally love grilled cauliflower tacos. The cauliflower was brown mush which was really just concerning because cauliflower isn't brown inside...Not sure what they are using for their cauliflower but it was really poor quality (or rotten). They really need to work on the bar. There is no bar menu yet and the bar tender couldn't tell me what was on tap or what beers they had. when I asked what local (texas made) beers they had he motioned for me to read the taps myself and didn't really want to give me the time of day. When I asked what type of beer was on tap for specific beers (ie a blonde or an ale from a specific brewery) he didn't know if it wasn't written on the tap handle which was annoying and he wasn't giving me his attention at all to take my order. When I did order the one I picked was empty when he went to fill it so I had to pick another one. I don't drink often so picking a nice beer is a treat for me and I ended up getting a generic mass produced beer even though it looked like they had at least 5 texas based beers on tap but the guy just wouldn't help me out at all.

    We both got 1 Baja shrimp taco and 1 Dynamite shrimp taco, chips and Queso, and the watermelon jalapeño margarita. Seriously one of the best margaritas I've had since moving to Midland. We both preferred the Dynamite taco over the Baja if you want to try their shrimp tacos when you go.

    Food is pretty good, and I appreciate that they have gluten friendly options. My family and I come here pretty frequently.

    This is a small taco shop that hits all the marks…read more Their 4.5 stars are well earned. I hard the coconut Shrimp tacos. Fresh and tender. Owner talked us into trying the corn on the cob. Super delicious! Richard, the owner enjoys giving incredible customer service.

    If you're looking for authentic tacos, taco di vino has a little different spin on their cuisine…read more The tacos are really pricey for what you get as the finished product in opinion meat portions are good but, the tacos are excessively packed with toppings that are either too bland or too sweet. I ordered 3 different types of tacos and a side which I did not believe were worth the price of the food. 1).The flank taco was salty and not a flavor packed salty. 2). The coconut shrimp taco was good as is with just shrimp and a little bit of cabbage pineapple on the taco bad it excessively sweet and cabbage filled the taco more than shrimp. 3).The pastor taco was also really sweet but I would say has to be one of there best in my opinion. And finally the side 1). The corn was loaded with cheese and mayonnaise and butter but corn was not sweet at all. All dining aside the service was excellent, server was polite and informative. The dining experience was not bad I just felt like the inside of the restaurant smelled a little rancid but the dining experience outside was nice and gave off a really fresh and cozy aesthetic. Overall I believe there could be better improvements on pricing, flavor, meat to toppings ratio, smell, and inside compact dining.
