Great Service, But a West Coast Palate Had Trouble Adjusting…read more My husband and I decided to try Rustic Taco Bar during Canal Days, hoping for a taste of our former home on the West Coast. First off, I want to give a huge shout-out to the staff. The service was truly great--super friendly and attentive, especially considering how busy it was during the festival. We really appreciated how welcoming they were. However, we found the food to be a bit of a culture shock for our palates. We understand there are regional differences, and for us, this was very different from the Mexican food we're used to. The tacos were served on flour tortillas that, since they weren't freshly made, could have really benefited from being heated or toasted on the grill to give them a better texture and taste. The biggest surprise for us was the filling. We've learned that "beef" on the East Coast often means ground beef, which was very odd for us in a taco, as we were expecting carne asada. It brought back memories of childhood taco nights rather than the street tacos we know and love. The salsa was just okay; for us, it was really missing that punch of salt and a fresh squeeze of lime juice that makes a salsa pop. Overall, the people were wonderful, but the food just didn't quite hit the mark for our West Coast tastes. If you're not used to SoCal-style Mexican food, you might enjoy this more than we did. For us, it was a reminder that we're a long way from San Diego!

Our favorite Tex Mex restaurant recently closed and, to drown our sorrows in margaritas, we decided…read moreto give Guacamole a try... and we were not disappointed! There is a very nice indoor dining area, a small bar and a delightful garden patio with more seating than one usually expects to see. The food was fantastic! Fresh ingredients, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try something else from the menu. To top it off our server was delightful. Helpful with suggestions, just the right amount of chatty and very efficient. Hope to see her there on every visit. So, the search for a new favorite Tex Mex restaurant may be over almost before it began. We will be back again and again

My kids love Moe's burrito and bowls, so we thought it would be good to try a different place. After taking a bite or two, both my kids said their ground beef didn't taste very good and it was very dry. I ordered the burrito suizo with carne asada. The steak in the burrito was very dry and hard to get down without drowning it in the sour cream and guacamole. The tortilla chips were chewy and did not taste fresh. The only positives were the Spanish rice and their guacamole. They were friendly and placing the order of the phone was easy. Overall, I will choose to spend my money at other establishments.

I was lucky enough to come across this food truck when visiting Damiani Wine Cellars. I'm so glad…read morethey were there because my friend and I were hungry and in need of some tasty bites to go with the wine we were sampling. The barbecue chicken tacos from Sabores de Oaxaca were delicious on their own, and they made a perfect pairing with the glass of Riesling from Damiani's! I ordered some pork tamales to go for my family to taste, but I can't review those because they were gone in a matter of minutes, and I never got a bite! I'll assume they were also just as delicious as those tacos. If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, track down Sabores de Oaxaca!

I've been fortunate to travel extensively and enjoy Mexican cuisine in many regions, from authentic…read morefamily-owned restaurants to more contemporary interpretations. While every restaurant has its own style, quality ingredients and careful preparation are what make great Mexican food. Unfortunately, despite its exceptional location on the Erie Canal in the charming village of Fairport, NY, this restaurant fell well short of those expectations. The queso fundido appeared to be made with inexpensive processed cheeses, which resulted in an overly oily dish. The chorizo quesadilla was disappointing as well. The chorizo tasted like a low-quality, filler-heavy product with an artificial heat rather than the rich, well-seasoned flavor you'd expect. The tacos were average but didn't stand out in any way. Service was friendly throughout the evening, but our server wasn't very familiar with the menu and couldn't answer several questions about the dishes. Despite having a reservation, the meal took nearly two hours from start to finish. Our bill came to about $60 for two adults with no alcohol, and based on the overall experience, it didn't represent a good value. The restaurant's greatest asset is unquestionably its location. Sitting along the Erie Canal is a wonderful experience, and Fairport is one of the most charming villages in the Rochester area. I genuinely hope the kitchen elevates the quality of the food to match such an exceptional setting.

Alternatively, fillings with chicken, pork, or beef can be substituted but are similarly priced. The $5 tacos are the biggest hit by most people, who also have to always wait in line to order. Although exceptionally clean, the ambiance should have included better lighting and some Mexican music played over speakers. Additionally, the choices of bottle beverages were limited - they lacked a self-serve soda machine. Viva Mexico Tacos CDMX

Entered the restaurant and saw a line of people waiting to order which is always a good sign. The restaurant itself looked a little rundown. They had seating inside and out. My husband and I both ordered the beef quesadillas which was $12 each. The tacos were five dollars each. We both enjoyed them and found them to be very flavorful and a nice amount of meat. I'm sure the college kids will keep this business busy during the school year. So if you are in town and in the mood for tacos, this is your place.

I love The Taco Place! I have only gone for the Mexican food, but they have something for everyone!…read moreIn addition to Mexican, they have hot dogs, burgers and fries and also a selection of ice cream. Sadly, on this visit they did not have any tamales, but my food was still delicious! I opted to get a surf & turf taco (shrimp & barbacoa) and the governador (shrimp with grill onions). There is a bar with a selection of toppings for your tacos including cilantro, pico, hot sauce, pickled onions & more. It also has toppings for burgers/dogs if you went that way. My food was hot, fresh & satisfying. The service was friendly. There is a lot of covered & uncovered outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. They also have a playground and some hammocks. It is a very nice setting to enjoy your food. One if these days I'm gonna get some ice cream too! I will definitely be back to The Taco Place... Hopefully to enjoy some tamales! :)

At first, we thought it was just an ice cream place, until noticing the taco sign.

We spilt the two taco deal, and ordered a gringo to share as well. All the food was savory, seasoned perfect, delicious and hearty. Goes to show you, smaller towns like Barker, NY know how to deliver for Mexican food, and who doesn't love ice cream !! If your hungry and find yourself in Barker, NY, Golden Hills State park, stop and order, you wont be disappointed, and pleasantly surprised. Thanks The Taco Place....for a perfect Cinco de Mayo!!!

It was tender, not spicy but flavorful, and the coleslaw topping was refreshing (I don't like Pico de Gallo, I know, I'm a bad Californian that is also allergic to avocado xD).

The amount of pork you get alone is worth the price, the great quality just adds to it... but finding them open seems to be a little hard as my boyfriend has been raving about them for a month with little less clear of catching them open, But we found them open during Harborfest, which was a tasty and fun end to a fun day.
