I've been to this place twice and friends know my husband and I are foodies so they always ask for a review. The first time was less than impressive, several tries in between were too busy to go with little seating, and this last time I figured they would have improved but I was hopeful for nothing. So, after waiting some time: here is our honest review. Both times: not very friendly service. Only friendly person is the main manager. Those taking your order hardly smile if at all. No eye contact. And don't even know how to answer if the tacos are "a la carte" lol Heads up: the counter is for to go orders only. We ordered and it had no clue. They never ask "here or to go" so they can direct new customers to sit down if they want to dine in. Otherwise, your food is in a bag lol Really, I don't care about patio seating or ambiance. Both of those are fine. The patio heater does its job. However, I come for the food. The burritos with the tots: wouldn't order again. The first time we tried to go they were sold out so technically the burrito time was the second. And they were out of all kinds of stuff. When I ordered a coffee with my breakfast burrito they couldn't even find the cream and finally brought me milk. Food is too expensive for what you get. And I pay for food. No reason a taco should be $7 and be mediocre at best. The birria needs more cheese and less cumin and cinnamon. I literally choked my first bite for cinnamon hitting the back. And I eat habanero salsa. It's not about hot or spicy. It's about the spices being disproportioned. The birria is a complete let down with soggy tacos instead of fried. Al pastor was better but again, no reason we should buy 5 street tacos a la carte and 2 sodas for $50. Unfortunately, we won't be back. However, wishing the best to the owners. I suggest more training or next time soft opening for a week or two and get in your groove before opening and overwhelming your staff. read more

We've been here a few times and the food has been excellent each time. It's similar if not better than Madre's in Boise. They use high quality ingredients and their sauces are fantastic. We've tried the steak and shrimp burrito, the nachos, the chips and salsa, the pork belly tacos, the birria tacos, and several others. It has been hard to identify a clear best item (which is a good thing because they're all good). The pricing is on par for high quality Mexican food and our feeling is that they deliver the expected value. The ambience is nice and we look forward to when the outdoor patio is fully opened up in the summer. Our waitresses have been good and have been helpful in solving problems related to kids at our table. Overall, we recommend it and are glad they're in Eagle - Eagle has needed something like this so we're excited they're here! read more

If you're looking for a metropolitan feel in downtown Eagle, this may be it! Unfortunately, due to being a smallish space with all acoustically reflective surfaces (hard flat ceilings, floors, walls, tables), it wraps you in the ambiance of a New York subway station. But hey, metro! On to the menu... The nose on the Smoked Piña Margarita bordered on burnt versus smoked, but the real issue was the drink itself. Extra heavy on the lime juice, to the point that any mezcal or tequila--assuming some was present--was very well hidden. Especially disappointing for a joint that bills itself as a tequila spot. The pork belly taco was OK. Not great, but OK. It was edible, but I certainly would never seek one out again. The shrimp ceviche was similarly OK. No food poisoning so far, so that's a plus! However, the ceviche's liquid was acidic to the point of unpleasant bitterness, perhaps attributable to over zealous squeezing. It was otherwise one-noted and poorly balanced. Instead of being inviting, fragrant, refreshing, and with a kick of spice--what a ceviche should be--it was just boring. The chips, at least those that weren't stale, were the best part. I'd joke that maybe the food gets better with additional drinks... but what helps you get through the drinks? read more

Man. I've had A LOT of burritos in my life and the carne asada here was top 5 favorites of all time. Chunky meat. A bit different than usual but consistency and quality of the ingredients were tops. A little pricey but the combination of service and ambiance made up for it. read more

Spitfire Tacos + Tequila - Carne asada burrito - Mexican Near Me - Eagle, Idaho

So so good! I've gone here twice and would love to come here again. Their tot-chos are my favorite thing. Instead of chips it's tots topped with pickled red onion, an AMAZING gooey cheese sauce, corn, black beans, and more. I wish I could make them at home. The shrimp taco I did not like that much. The shrimp in general was very good, but I was not warned about the sauce on top that was spicy and burning my mouth. The mushroom taco in the other hand was top notch. Our waiter said it was their most underrated thing on the menu, so I got it and was not disappointed whatsoever! So yummy! read more

Went for lunch recently. Perfect experience, in and out. Two deluxe tacos that were like $7 ea (very affordable for how big they were) and got the street corn app to share which was fantastic! Left super satisfied and not overly full. read more

I was on my way to my daughter's house and really wanted a breakfast burrito - I actually drove through 2 centers where I knew there were taco shops, but both were closed. I finally opened google maps and searched. Spitfire Tacos was the closest and on the way, so I headed over. I was quickly greeted at the counter, and after reviewing the menu board I asked my server which was his favorite breakfast burrito? He said the savory sausage, but he adds bacon, so I ordered 2. Truthfully, I was kind of shocked by the prices and the fact that they use American cheese. I don't hate American cheese and I think it has its place... Definitely in this burrito!!. The subtle sweetness of the cheese worked really well with the smoke (bacon?), I was picking up. I loved the crunch from the tots, the eggs were not overcooked and I appreciated the green sauce inside and that extra sauce was in my bag. I added it to make my bites extra delicious. My only negative thought was that I didn't get any napkins in my bag and that would have been a problem if I was road tripping. The burrito was big; (it was my breakfast and then my lunch!), $12 was a steal! I'll be back Spitfire and thank you for the early bird breakfast P.S. my daughter loved hers too! read more

We loved our experience at spitfire. I got the Al pastor and shrimp tacos and my husband got the Al pastor and fried chicken tacos, which was all very good. The margaritas are also great and they have a good variety. Everything was delicious and our server Suzy was amazing! We will definitely be back. read more

The quality of the food is horrible. Our service was subpar as well. The restaurant was something I had high expectations for and the tacos tasted like saucy soup. $7 for chips salsa and guac ???? This is a restaurant I would expect to not be in eagle. Very disappointed. Will not be returning. Save your money and go to a taco truck! Where your burrito will also be wrapped in tin foil but taste 100 times better ! read more

I am not sure where to start. The food: 1. There is Tajin on almost 80% of the menu. Tajin green salsa; Tajin crema; Tajin dusted tortilla chips; Tajin rims on all drinks. Why??? 2. The flavors from the salsa to the birria ramen to the tacos to the guac were... off. Not slightly off, but very, very off. The birria ramen at first bite was all cinnamon and cloves - not balanced at all - and very little consommé was given. They added purple cabbage to the birria ramen which was not necessary. Unbalanced flavor profiles across the board. 3. Portions were inadequate. Period. $7 for a chicken taco that was about 2.5 bites to finish. The ambiance and service: We sat on the rooftop patio - it was nice out so we enjoyed that. However, this was brought down by the staff. They were steeping in chaos. Had to grab our own silverware and napkins after having our appetizers delivered. The bartender STRUGGLED to open a bottle of wine. I always give folks the benefit of the doubt when it comes to little things, but holy heavens it was as if the cork screw had just been invented. She was delightful; her ability to deliver good service was lackluster. Think twice. read more

Tacos were amazing! every little detail was spot on! Ambiance - upstairs patio made me feel like I was at a resort. Great relaxing chill vibe! We will be back. read more

The good: you can order online ahead of time, the size of the burrito was good, good salsa, great ambiance inside the restaurant. The bad: There were literally 5 pieces of steak in the whole burrito, there was not much flavor overall (other than great salsa), tacos were very small for the price Overall: Probably won't be back. Nothing super memorable except the overpriced items for the amount of meat you get. read more

New addition to downtown Eagle. The patio would be amazing if it weren't for the construction but that's not the restaurants fault so I can't wait to come back after that's all finished. I had the chips, salsa, guac, and queso all were fantastic. Then I had the Al Pastor taco. The marinade and grilled pineapple were quite the combo. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. read more

Food was great. Low score simply because of price. $45 for three tacos and two iced teas (at lunch). Again, food was good. Service was average, flies everywhere. I just won't pay those prices. read more

The food at Spitfire is fantastic. The service was impeccable as the staff works in unison and consistently checks on the customers. All the servers are very enthusiastic and personable. The smash burger taco is absolutely fantastic and that should be a staple on the menu. Please!!! Hopefully the GM considers leaving it as a full time option. The atmosphere is fun and the restaurants layout is awesome as you have outdoor options and an upstairs patio. Great vibe and amazing cocktails especially the Mexico City Margarita. It's a must try and believe me you won't regret it. read more

Cocktails were great...food not so much. Ordered a Quesadilla and street corn to start. Both served cold and lacked flavor. Mushroom taco was loaded with mushrooms but also served cold and flavor was bland. Will not be back. read more

Delicious tacos and guacamole! Drinks are very well crafted and unusual. We will be back very soon.

Delicious food, fantastic service and all around amazing vibe. I love the carne Asada burrito it had such a crunch that I savored every bite. All the servers are super friendly and amazing sense of humor. I felt like I was eating with my family read more

If you're looking for flavor and fun, this is the place for you. Spitfire in Eagle has a gorgeous roof top balcony and friendly staff. It's always clean and you're well taken care of. You're going to definitely spend some money though. The average alcoholic mixed drink is about $12 and you're looking at $7/taco. So this isn't going to be your meal on a budget. But the food is delicious and the experience is likely to leave you satisfied if you have the cash to spend. read more

Decent food but what is that "salsa" it tasted like those cheap taco seasoning packets and chipotle sauce ground into an un appetizing mush and it had no spice to it just tasted sour and I'm a big baby when it comes to spice black peppers spicy to me and that had no kick at all. Sweet girls behind the bar and great drinks would come again just not order the salsa read more

Everyone was kind and service was fast. But unfortunately the food was giving airport dining if that makes any sense.

Absolutely fantastic food and drinks and service. The Mexico City Margarita was unreal, the Mole and Carne tacos were fantastic, and the Street Corn dip with chips was top notch with perfect medium spiciness. Will be back, probably tomorrow read more

Way overpriced. Quality is good, service is good but prices are excessive for what they serve.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Is the best word to describe spitfire. The food, service and atmosphere was so great that we will definitely be returning. Our server Jordan was absolutely also so amazing and made our visit one to remember. read more

I've been here twice. First time I had the pollo burrito which was good. The second time I had the carne asada burrito which was EXCELLENT!! I am seriously obsessed with the flavors in this thing! I gave 4 stars because my friends cup had lipstick on it which was not appetizing to say the least. I also wish they would have gave her a discount or something. read more

Food and drinks were all delicious!! We had the smoky margarita, classic margarita and 2 of the Cabo San Fresa drinks. So good! For food we had ceviche and queso to start then Carne Asada, Al Pastor and the Mex-Tex Salad. Everything delicious!! Service was great. No complaints!! read more

The drinks are STRONG! Good service. Good food. Clean little place. Love the high booths. I wish with the chips and guacamole that they came with way more guacamole, it's totally not enough, super small bowl. So I hope they work on that part. Will be back to try rooftop! And hopefully I get a bigger bowl of guac! Fun place. Fun people. read more

Traveling thru Boise on a vacation tour of WA, ID & home then to Oregon. Our family loves a good bfast burrito and we were completely blown away by the quality, size and sauces (red and green). Highly recommend these gourmet bfast burritos! read more

We sat right down! Service was amazing! Susie was wonderful! She gave us great recommendations. Our food came out quick and was delicious! We will definitely be back! read more

The place was crowded and noisy, the food was too spicy and I like spicy food. The service was ok nothing special.

This place is amazing!!! It's an open bar concept. It's great on a nice summer day. The staff is awesome. We go in there a lot we can even call the staff our friends. They know our drinks and what we will order. The Smashburger tacos are the best, they can't take them off the menu. read more

Mediocre service and they are trying too hard to make "foodie" food....not good food. It's really not that difficult to make great tacos. We tried the carne asada nachos and one of all of the different tacos. They were ALL just ok. This is walking distance from my office, so I wanted this to be good with all of my heart, but sadly it's just meh. I haven't tried the breakfast burrito yet but I'm am not hopeful based on my first experience read more

Came here with a friend for lunch on a Sunday. Glad we arrived when we did because it got busy. The service was quick, maybe a little too quick. Made me realize that the food is already pre-prepared. I ordered the Al Pastor taco and the carne asada. Neither of the tacos were amazing per my tastebuds. The tacos and my friends salad came out in like 2 minutes (which would be great if the food was good). The meat on both of them tasted a little old to me, like it was just sitting waiting to be put on a taco. The salsa for the chips was just okay, almost seemed like a sauce vs a salsa. Personally I'm not sure that I would visit again. read more

We stopped in for lunch. I had the. Chicken tacos and they were delicious. Service was prompt and friendly

Not the worst definitely not the best. Chipotle's guacamole hands down is tastier, and the salsa was meh. That being said tacos were ok. Felt like they were trying too hard to be foodie destination , how about just make good food. read more

I really wanted to love this place when I saw it being built so close to where I live! Especially since they have 2 other restaurants in San Diego, which is where I am from so I'm assuming owners are from San Diego as well. Anyways, the food in my opinion is way too spicy. I love spice but the spice is so Intense it almost makes the food not edible. The pork belly taco is the only one I can handle spice wise. It's good, I love the pickled veggies that come on it. We have asked for the spices/sauces on the side and the tacos still come out spicy. ‍ I was super excited about the birria ramen but unfortunately it was too spicy for me to eat :( I think since they aren't cheap tacos or burritos maybe offer different spice levels when ordering. Mild, medium, hot. Just an idea! :) read more

We stopped by this new downtown Eagle hot spot for a Thursday lunch. This is a small place with patio seating and some booth seats in the bar area, and the restaurant was already crowded at 11:45am but was able to nab a couple of bar seats. We were promptly waited on and ordered prosecco while reviewing the menu. They have a few appetizers such as ceviche, chips & salsa, street corn, and buffalo chicken tenders. The bulk of the menu is $7 ala carte tacos or $15 burritos. I had a quesabirria taco, my friend the mushroom taco; we shared the shrimp ceviche. The birria taco had plenty of meat, but the tortilla was thin and was not crispy like a traditional birria taco. It was served with a consomme, which was tasty, but it was difficult to dip the taco into consomme because the filling fell out. The taco had the right amount of spice. My friend had plenty of portobello mushrooms in her taco, and she liked the flavors. The shrimp ceviche was served with chips, but the bowl was too big and deep, and it was too hard to dip a chip into the ceviche. The shrimp, vegetables, and mango were not chopped to the same size for easy dipping. It could have used less mango and more shrimp. The flavors had a smoky curry flavor. Overall, this is a nice gathering place; it will be fun in the summer when rooftop seating is open but dread the parking. I would like to see more shareable options. Serving 3 street size tacos for $7 may be perceived to be a better value than a single full sized taco for the same price. read more
