We tried a little bit of everything and it was good, especially for the price. It's a really cute taco/Mexican place. If you sit outside it's amazing especially in the summer. We went during karaoke night and it was great- so much fun. I think my favorite part was the service. They were very kind and attentive. Such a fun spot for the summer for sure! read more

I ordered the Ahi tacos as an appetizer 3 for $12 good deal really small 2 bites. my issue is that 2 of the 3 were frozen, still waiting for those to thaw. I ordered the Korean tacos expecting some good Asian spice... not there This place was much better when it was Tryggs read more

Great happy hour, great patio, food is so so. I'd say great spot to come if you want an app and a big patio, but less so if you're looking for a meal that will blow you away. Staff were super kind and helpful as well! read more

I stopped by Taberna for happy hour, hoping to snag some good taco deals, but ended up being the complete opposite. Their taco menu listed them at $5, but the happy hour price was $5.50, which had me confused. When I asked the server what the actual happy hour deal was, she didn't really give a clear explanation of the deals for tacos, but was able to give a better explanation for their drinks and apps. I ended up skipping the "deal" altogether and ordered the guacamole + queso combo off the regular menu (which somehow was a better value than happy hour as well). The dips were fine, but the chips were stale and crumbly, the kind that break just from looking at them. For my entrée, I tried the birria tacos, but they were greasy and had way more cheese than meat. Definitely not what I am used to. All in all, this was my first and last visit. There are plenty of spots in the Cities serving better tacos, better value, and a better happy hour. read more

I have had 2 very different experiences here. The first time I chose to get the tacos which were delicious, I love their creative fusion tacos and the variety you can get. The second time I was just there for appetizers and just got the chicken wings. The wings were pretty dry, and the honey-chipotle sauce was not very good in my opinion. Overall it's a good spot, service was quick and our servers are always nice! It's a fun, casual vibe with some bar/arcade games so a good place to spend a rainy afternoon! read more

Taberna Street Tacos - Pound O' Wangs, Honey-Chipotle and Buffalo - Mexican Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Taberna is a spot with good vibes and perfectly good food. I wouldn't quite call it authentic but what it lacks in authenticity, it has in fun. Advice: come for happy hour or other promotion times. You'll find good deals. Food: good solid options that will please any crowd. Generally Mexican food but they do offer burgers, etc. too. I wouldn't say it is authentic at all but it's perfectly satisfying especially if drinks and vibes are 50% or more your goal. Parking: there are large lots nearby Service: friendly and perfectly pleasant I recommend Taberna for the vibes, drinks, and food (in that order). read more

The food is generally street tacos, and they do a good job at pulling a variety of tastes together. The staff is attentive, and service is quick. They have a nice patio, albeit hovering over a busy street corner near Lake Bde Maka Ska - guess that makes the "street taco" part more authentic. I had a fish and a pork taco. Both were well prepared, presented, and had good flavor. In all a decent value, I've heard happy hour can be a great value. read more

A fellow Yelp Elite told me about Taberna & how they have a good $2.99 taco deal on Tuesday's. I got chicken tacos and Mexican fries. I believe they promote being on the authentic side but it was more Tex-mex/Americanized flavor wise, wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping. Also wish they had more taco sauce options vs. the sauces paired with the tacos. The atmosphere was giving sports bar & lots of Drake playing. The waitress was pretty laid back but overall nice. Would be a nice place spot to go & grab drinks. They have a heated garage to park inside of w/ a lot of spots, which is nice especially it cold weather. read more

Taberna is a nice eatery for a drink out on the patio. Their happy hour is okay value, and their food is tasty. I've had the bowl and my friend had a cheese smothered burrito and really enjoyed it. Their tortilla chips are very good. Service has varied for me between the different times I have been there, hence the 4 stars. Overall though, not a bad place to stop by. read more

Casual spot for tasty Mexican bites. Went with a group and ordered the meal for 4 which was a great deal. 12 tacos (your choice), 4 elotes, and large bowls of rice and beans for $55. If you just order 12 tacos alone, that's almost $60 so this was a great value. The carnitas, shrimp and al pastor tacos were the favorites. And the elotes had lots of cotija cheese and mayo to give lots of flavor. Not healthy, but tasty! Added a chicken quesadilla since the guys were worried it wasn't enough food but that was only ok. And there was plenty of food without it anyway. We couldn't even finish the rice and beans. Everything came out super fast too. read more

Lunchtime treat and since I had eaten a light breakfast, this ended up being a big lunch. I went for the three taco combo and looking back, two would have been enough. Fish, pork belly and carne asada. Huge portions and well topped. And delicious. Served with both rice and Taberna elote (Mexican street corn), this was a large meal. Thoroughly enjoyed it, sitting at the bar and having a great conversation with the bartender who kept my soda refilled. Five stars for a great lunch. Parking can be a challenge. I'm not sure if this is or isn't part of the Greenway Lakes Commons but we parked there anyway successfully. YMMV. [Review 20735 overall - 146 in Minnesota - 1717 of 2023.] read more

Denisse was a wonderful server, very friendly, funny, and bubbly. Making our experience a little bit better because it was not the best. This location is tex-mex style, and the prices are not bad. There is a free parking lot located to the right of the restaurant. The music was very loud, and all the food came out of the kitchen at once. However, we purchased the tacos for two combo but did not get our tres leche cake and our server didn't mention anything to us. Maybe it's not offered anymore? If so the menu should be updated. The pastor tacos didn't come with pineapple so that was disappointing for me, my husband prefers no pineapple so he didn't mind. Rice and beans were a bit bland but the Mexican fries were good. This place is okay but all things considered it's not somewhere we would see ourselves coming to more than once. read more

Food: 3 Service: 5 Drinks: 5 Atmosphere inside: 3 Atmosphere outside: 5 Inside feels like a sports bar with arcade games and big tvs, large middle bar and lots of high and low tables. The hosts are quick, bartenders friendly and waitresses attentive but not too much. The only downside is the tacos themselves and the beans and rice are not good. As a typically non-meat eater I would love to see some black bean tacos and less watery side of beans with less smokey meat flavor. The cauliflower taco is a little chewy and difficult to eat so I usually go for cheese curds or french fries to share with friends. Pairs perfectly with the Taberna Margarita, a deliciously premixed, always perfect, margarita. Happy hour and margarita Mondays are the way to go for sure. Lots of us neighborhood folks frequent this place for the quality service and delicious drinks. read more

Taberna Street Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I've been here twice and I'll definitely return. It's friendly and spacious and the food has mostly been good. Both times I've gotten the 3-taco combo, and I think that's a good deal. You get three street tacos with doubled-up soft corn tortillas, plus mexican rice and an elote. I don't see elotes too often, so it's very cool that it's included in that combo. The service has been very fast and professional, although both times I've come, I've had to wait a few minutes for anyone to appear at the host station. This is in the same spot as the classic burger joint Porky's, which my mom has fond memories of from her childhood. And to honor that, they have Porky's Onion Rings on the menu, using the same recipe that my mom loved decades ago. My mom was delighted when she sunk her teeth into hers; she is certain that they are the same old onion rings! Unfortunately, the first time we came, they had run out of them. That was the main draw for us, so we were very disappointed. Also, this last time, the rice that came with my combo was not fresh. It seemed like it had been under a heat lamp for a while. But my tacos were good and my mom also liked her quesadilla. NOTE: Be assured there IS parking! It might not be obvious, but if you turn in to the right of the building, many of those spaces are posted as exclusive to Taberna customers. I think there is even overflow parking in the garage of that apartment complex. read more

The food is ok, not good, not bad. But the management which in turn affects the service is terrible. I have been there several times, and every time I noticed that the number of service personnel is very few, resulting in late orders and slow service. The last time I was there, I waited 95 minutes until I gave up and left without getting any food. Very bad experience. Will not return to this place!! read more

Service was amazing, very fast. Anthony was super awesome and very nice, great server. The vibes were immaculate, the outdoor patio is gorgeous. Elote: 5/5 that baja sauce on top really tied it together well. I suggest adding some lime and maybe asking them to add tajin too just for a lil kick but overall amazing elote. Avocado Marg: 5/5, not much avocado flavor which I liked because it tasted more like coconut. Carne asada taco: 5/5, good amount of steak, perfectly cooked and well seasoned. crispy shrimp taco: 5/5, the breading was super flakey and thin which was perfect. pork belly: 3.5/5, had really good flavor but the sauce overpowered the taco and I couldn't really taste the pork belly to be quite frank. Korean bbq taco: 5/5 stellar! I was weary about this taco because I feel like it could be a hit or a miss but i LOVED it! The kimchi on this taco was so perfect with the rest of the ingredients. read more

Still one of the best spots in town to grab happy hour! They have a ton of tables so it makes it easy to meet friends for a drink after work, without having to worry if you'll get a spot. The parking is ideal, with a free parking ramp attached. I've always been pleasantly surprised at the service: professional, speedy and kind.

This is one of my favorite places to visit. They have nice patio sitting. It is pet friendly if you just left the lake you can hop over. There is parking along the side and garage. The nachos are good, as well as just the red salsa and chips. Service is quick and pleasant. read more

I love the patio! Plus happy hour is pretty great. My last visit I ordered carnitas and carne asada tacos - and the carnitas had a heavy cinnamon flavor which wasn't for me. But the carne asana tacos were out of this world! I also am a big fan of the churros for dessert. Overall it's an easy dinner spot in a great location with a very fun atmosphere. read more

I have been to Taberna a few times and have enjoyed it every time. The service has been good even when Taberna has a busy day. On this trip, I got a spicy watermelon margarita and a coconut margarita. Both of the drinks were delicious but did not seem strong. For a meal I got the impossible chorizo and flower power tacos. The tacos were flavorful and all of the ingredients tasted fresh. I was very pleased. One of my favorite things about Taberna is their happy hour deals. You can leave satiated without spending too much and it is a great location to connect with friends! read more

What a fun place to enjoy drinks, guac, and friends! With happy hour, you can get a margarita, chips & guac, and 2 street tacos for under 25 dollars! On Tuesdays their tacos are on an even better deal. I tired the southwestern and chorizo tacos. Both were so yummy with excellent flavor combinations. The house margaritas comes on ice or blended (50 cents more for blended). They have great indoor and outdoor seating and tvs for sports viewing. Our server was so kind and the rest of the staff was friendly! Bonus parking attached to the apartment building! read more

My friends and I always have a fabulous time at Taberna Tacos! We always get the Tacos for 2 which includes 6 tacos, elote, rice and beans, and tres leches cake for $38 total- an amazing deal!! My favorite tacos are the carnitas, they are delicious. The elote is my favorite elote in the twin cities area- they always char the corn perfectly and put the perfect amount of cojita cheese on top. The ambiance is pretty casual and they have a wrap around bar with a great happy hour which is fun. It did take a long time to get our food and service was pretty slow but other than that it was a great night! Parking: make sure you park in the underground parking lot for free connected to the restaurant! read more

I really wanted to love this place but it fell short of my expectations. The food was just a miss for me. The tacos to me were kind of bland and were not fresh. Also, the first bartender that served us was not attentive. The bar was not busy and he was in his own world watching tv, putting beer away and talking to one customer the whole time. However, the 2nd bartender that took over was great! They do have great happy hour specials so if you're looking for just drinks I'd recommend still going here. I got the spicy watermelon marg and it was delicious. read more

I have come here before and got takeout and was underwhelmed. Very meh. However, we brought the family here this week and had a great experience. It was Taco Tuesday and tacos are cheaper. I got 2 pastor tacos and my wife got pastor and carnitas. We also got nachos. Maybe it is the walk home that ruins things, but sitting in the restaurant this week, the food was so much better. Juicy and tender meat, great tortillas, and the nachos were also very good. Our server was always visible and accessible as kids can be unpredictable and we were able to eat, get the check and keep it moving. I am way too old for the scene here, but if you're younger, this place is very lively, lots of 20-30 somethings having drinks with friends, etc. read more

Used to love this place, but last few times have been lack luster. The server we've had a few times isn't friendly and regularly forgets items. Also, they are discontinuing the impossible chorizo, which is so devastating. Now there are only two vegetarian options: A cauliflower one and a cheese curd one. Very disappointing. Impossible chorizo, you will be missed. read more

This is my secret Happy Hour Mecca. If you haven't been to Taberna for their happy hour and you like margaritas, wings, burgers, or quesadillas, get thee to Taberna on Lake Street immediately. Happy hour is like, 3.5 hours almost daily and everything on the HH menu is under $10. We usually end up getting 4 drinks (omg please get the margarita), maybe an app, and 2 entrees from HH (pound of wings is $8, chz quesadilla is $5 and a burger and fries is $8) and our total normally comes out to LESS THAN $50. that is INSANE. please never change, Taberna. I have honestly never ordered something not on the Happy Hour menu. Ambiance is a general sports bar vibe and is varying degrees of busy - the service can also be either strapped and you see them twice, or very attentive with a few visits. Don't expect super authentic Mexican. This is a very American Mexican spot with big sports bar vibes. I've come with a group of girlfriends and go with my husband, and every time it's a hit. read more

The 3 taco combo. A PERFECT lunch or dinner. The meat was so incredibly well seasoned, and included the right mix of sweet and savory crunchy and soft toppings.
