I tried Social Taco Wednesday evening and was really impressed. Did a to go order of 2 Carnitas Tacos and and order of chips and salsa. The Carnitas Tacos were really good. The pork was delicious and seasoned perfect. Chips were thin and fresh. Salsa was really flavorful. Since I just picked it up, I can't say much about the service, other than it was ready before they said and everything was amazing! read more

I order from here regularly like at least once a month. I have some dietary restrictions and the menu is so accommodating. I usually get the shrimp quesadilla, elote, and chips with salsa and it's great. Very fresh well seasoned and a good size portion as well. I've only ever gotten take out and everything is well packed. I've also had the flan when it's available and the churros that are mostly good but on occasion are a little too chewy like they might be a bit old. I've had others order with me, the birria quesadilla and all the tacos are well liked This is a fantastic restaurant! Also the tater tot appetizer is amazing! A must try? read more

This is a fun fusion cuisine taco place that I've been to a couple times. It's not particularly cheap, but it's not crazy expensive either. Usually I'll get three different tacos, and my girlfriend will do the same. I'm on a mission to try everything on the menu that sounds good, and that's going to take easily 3 or 4 more visits, maybe more. I'm not going to call out any one particular dish as my favorite, but I've had half a dozen different kinds of taco here and they have all been good. I really don't think you can go wrong here. read more

Really great tacos and more ! Really impressed as we have not found any good tacos or decent take out here. Fast food doesn't cut it. Great Queso , unbelievable tacos and Crème brûlée... If you love Mexican or just Fresh Food this is your next stop. Bypass the chains and eat here. I'm mad I didn't find it earlier. read more

The tacos were great! Ordered the grilled chicken and steak. Atmosphere was nice and tables are clean. Food came out quickly and employees at the front were super helpful with recommendations. Great spot for lunch, I'll be back! read more

I'm from Champaign and I'm just passing through. So glad we found this place on yelp! I am blown away by this place! Wow! It's a hidden gem in Peoria, IL!! The flavor profiles are amazing! It was so fast too! My main dish was the Social Tater + egg. Wowowow. Oliver is a sweet and generous owner! Loves to chat Will definitely come back to this spot next time we come around! Everyone ate 3 tacos and one of my boys ate 5 tacos and a cookie! There's one in Bloomington people! Check it out! read more

Solid tacos! Great flavor. Nice clean seating area. It's an order at the counter type of service. Loved the Pastor Taco! You only need 1-2 tacos per person, they are 6 inch. I had chips and guacamole. Chips were a bit broken up but that was the only negative. read more

Traveled to the area for work and this taco shop was close to where I was staying. I stopped in with my coworkers for some lunch and we all ordered different tacos all of which were super good! The guy who took our order was super friendly and also made it a point to ask people sitting at the tables if everything tasted okay and if they needed anything. Even though it's a small taco shop it's definitely worth coming to. I'll keep this place in mind next time I'm in the area. read more

Didn't realize it wasn't a full service restaurant. But made the best of it, and would return.

I absolutely love this place! I get variety and unique flavors in a taco what's Not to like? I love that the ones I expect not to love are the ones I love the most. For example, The portobello mushroom taco is loaded with big flavors & is my favorite. Birria is always good and so many others! Go give it a shot! read more

Overall decent spot for Mahomet the flavor are different but the portions are large. Have been once but have not been able to go back.

Super great service and tacos! We had the buffalo taco, the roasted chicken taco, and chips and queso. Just got better with each bite! The restaurant was super clean. Wasn't busy when we were there so nice and quite. Music isn't the greatest. But that's the worst thing I can say! For sure will be back! read more

Everything is amazing at the social taco ex. The fish taco's to die for !!! Clean friendly service ,great atmosphere and was welcomed by owner/ manager? Really great service. This place is so nice and the food is so amazing me and my husband were actually talking to another couple there that were very pleasant people and they are talking about how wonderful it was too we usually don't make small talk with strangers like that but they invited us over to their table and it was just the most wonderful experience I can't even tell you I have never been to any establishment that had that kind of atmosphere and great food and such kind kind service! Thank you ! See you soon read more

I've been to Social Taco a couple times to meet a colleague for work lunch. today I came with the Honeybun after shopping as we were both famished. Today I ordered the shrimp taco, he got the Philly beef and we had the guac and chips. That shrimp taco was delicious. the shrimp were plump and juicy (battered and fried) and the slaw was cool and crunchy. Honestly it was perfect for a hot humid day-very refreshing. he said his Philly Beef tacos were excellent and he would absolutely come back and order them again. The beef is likely the birria meat with a cheese sauce topping along with grilled onions and peppers, just like a Philly beef should be. The guac was nothing to write home about. I love a fresh guac and this was "fresh". To me it tasted like a packaged avocado product vs fresh avocado. (there was a lot of citric acid in it to prevent browning). I personally will try a different side next time or order another taco. So far, I'm really pleased for a quick lunch-- sit down but fast casual service. I can see meeting friends for a casual dinner. I haven't tried their takeout service but I'd imagine it's every bit as good. staff is very friendly and the service is excellent. The location is very clean. 80's music on the speakers. we will be back!! read more

Immediately greeted upon entering which was so nice! I ordered the Birria Quesadilla and chips and guacamole. Food came fast and was very delicious and flavorful. There was a lot of different types of food on the menu other than tacos which was interesting. Inside is clean and has lots of LED signs and bright colors. Would recommend and come back! read more

We have never walked out of a restaurant after taking two bites of food before today. Our order started out with queso that tasted like it was scraped from the bottom of a burning pan. The only flavor in my chicken burrito was the taste of it being canned meat. Major disappointment! read more

Social Taco has been the highlight of our week. The staff are incredibly friendly, especially Fred. The restaurant is very clean and organized. We got the chicken quesadilla and surf and turf burrito. Both were delicious, but the birria meat in the burrito is out of this world. They have such a fun taco menu with so many different options. I would wholeheartedly recommend Social Taco to anyone looking for a good meal. read more

We stopped in Peoria for an overnight on a longer trip. We happened upon Social Taco and decided to try it. So glad we did! The staff who greeted us was friendly and explained how to order. Once we had time to peruse the menu, we ordered at the register. The staff working the register was friendly and helpful. Between four of us, we tried the birria, carnitas, gringo, Philly, and a walk in the park. Every single one was delicious. My personal favorite was the birria. We also got the social tots, which was a hit with the table, and margaritas. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this restaurant! Go there! read more

Amazingly deep, complex flavors! Tons of meat in the steak and beef tacos. Large, creative menu. The pozole soup is fantastic!

Pretty close to authentic as it gets. Refreshing to have this in this town. Staff is so friendly as well.

Very good food and generous portions for the money. Restaurant is very clean and friendly staff.

I stopped in on a Thursday night and did the special, Chicken nachos. The portion size could have easily fed 2 people. I have heard others compliment this place so I decided to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed. It was clean and the staff was friendly. I will be back read more

Literally the BEST taco's I've ever had, without a doubt!! I told the cashiers we need this place in Charlotte, NC. It would make a killing! Everything was a la carte. The prices were great. Honestly I would pay $6 for each of those tacos vs the $4.50 they're charging. The staff were great and attentive the service was fast and everything tasted fresh! Definitely coming back here the next time i'm in town. read more

Amazing little place!! I can't say enough good things. The food was so tasty. Not your typical Mexican/taco place. Not only good food, but reasonable in cost and unique variety. I have never been to a fast food type place where the owner came over to chatted with us for so long and to make sure of a good visit. Oliver, you have a real winner!! We enjoyed talking with you about the Skokie/Park Ridge area, as well as your background in major Chicago restaurants. This is a must go to place for us for our Peoria visits. I think the college age kids are trying to keep this a secret!! Thanks for providing a place like this for everyone. read more
