    Taco Billy was a delicious breakfast/lunch spot to hit. I got two tacos: the Migas and the Support Group. The Migas was delicious and filling, plenty of protein and veggies inside. I opted for a corn tortilla, but it quickly fell apart, so I'd recommend a flour tortilla for that one. The Support Group was good too - it was on the sweeter side because of the plantain tortilla, which was unique and fun to try, but I definitely have more a a savory tooth, so I would, again, opt for a flour tortilla in the future. All breakfast tacos come with a salsa, which I chose when I ordered, but they forgot to give it to me, and I didn't realize until I finished my meal so I didn't get to try it. The portions are pretty big - I could have gotten away with eating one taco rather than two since they were so filling and I wasn't too hungry. The service was quick and freshly-made. There were plenty of seats available on a Sunday morning. There is limited parking right in front of the building. They had some coffee, which I opted not to purchase, but good to know if you need a morning pick-me-up. My favorite part about the restaurant was all of the beautiful paintings on the wall with a hidden orange goat painted somewhere into them. I spent some time before I left looking for them in each picture, like Where's Waldo!

    Excellent tacos and very big. Nice to see vegetarian options. The aguas frescas were a little watery but aguas is in the name! Not a fan of the plantain taco but just my preference

    Service and ambiance worked out well. Due to having an extra empty stomach, I got three Mama's Favorites (eggs, sausage, spinach, sweet potatoes and goat cheese on a plantain tortilla). All three were phenomenal in flavor. Mama's Favorite? More like Luca's Favorite.

    Thanks to local recommendation from Clayton at Asheville Jeep Tours. He told us to check out this place and we did for breakfast. Yes I said breakfast! We enjoyed a delicious plantain taco. The mama special had spinach and sweet potatoes in it and it was absolutely delicious very filling very flavorful highly recommend they have fresh greased orange juice. Coffee was good. Service was great. You can sit outside on the back deck in the sun. We'd love to come back and visit maybe for the night time and grab a margarita that's on our list next check this place out thanks Clayton for the recommendation.

    What a fresh take to breakfast tacos!! Absolutely yummy! I had the Bright and Early with veggie chorizo - very delicious!! Just the right amount of serving and extra amount of taste! Next time we need to try their lunch/dinner options.

    we ordered this to go for lunch and i think that was our mistake. i believe this should be eaten as a dine in option bc the tortillas got pretty soggy and the tacos were falling apart. i really liked their typical ground beef taco and while i was excited to try some of their unique flavors, none really hit the spot for me! they were a decent size taco though with a good portion of meat! the inside was very busy but they got me my order really quickly!

    Delicious breakfast tacos! We were looking for a quick, local breakfast spot and came across taco billy. We got lucky and came before the rush. We ordered the migas, billy ocean and bright and early. The migas was my favorite of the three. So flavorful and really delicious! We also got the pineapple agua Fresca as a drink which was so sweet and refreshing. Overall it was a great meal and a good start to our day!

    A unique selection of tacos and drinks! We ate at Taco Billy and were excited to find out margaritas are only $5 on Thursday- that's a great deal. My tacos were generously portioned and two was plenty filling. I got the Support Group, which comes with sweet potatoes, spinach, black bean hummus and coconut crema. It's served on a plaintain shell, which was super delicious. I also got the Santi taco which had a kick too it and delicious flavor. You order at the counter and they bring it to you. We didn't have to wait long. Drinks are self service, as is cleaning off your table, but the staff was great at answering any questions we had. Would definitely go back next time I'm in Asheville.

    Taco Billy came highly recommended but for us it didn't tac-to-me. We went for the breakfast tacos and was a bit underwhelmed with our choices. We tried 5 different types of tacos and as you can see in our pictures they seemed to be just an omelette thrown on top of a tortilla. Not much crafting or food artesian on display here. It was almost a haphazard idea of "let's throw ingredients together and place them on a tortilla and call it a taco". The best way to describe it was taco Tuesday made by white people. The flavor was decent, the sweet potato taco was an air ball but the sausage was pretty good. The salsa that came with it was the saving grace as we had landed on the Sahara desert or flavor, not a raindrop of spice in sight. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was kind. We enjoyed sitting there as people stormed the restaurant but were left very shocked and confused on why.

    All the chicken tacos were the plate to the left and the beef tacos were the plate to the right.

The fast casual vibe was perfect for our energy levels. It is located downtown so parking can be a bit tricky or expensive. They have two single stall gender neutral restrooms here. This White Duck has lots of indoor and outdoor seating. You order your tacos up front and take your number to your table. I was beyond thrilled to see that my favorite taco, the pork belly, was still delicious. I also really enjoyed my lamb gyro taco and Bangkok shrimp taco. I was beyond stuffed. Two tacos is more than enough, but I knew I wasn't gonna be back in NC soon so wanted that third. My friends really loved their tacos too. The street corn wasn't what we were hoping and the bean taco was very bean forward. The queso was a yummy app. It was a beautiful day for their outdoor seating! It's in the back so it isn't too crowded. I highly recommend this taco spot for tasty and unique fusion tacos.

I shoehorned myself in there and asked the guys on either side of me what they thought. One was a regular, the other also a newbie like me. The newbie said his loaded nachos were very good, but too big. I didn't want a lot. The regular told me I couldn't go wrong with the street tacos. The bartender confirmed. She was awesome, but didn't catch her name. Very nice, knowledgeable and attentive. I was going to order two steak tacos, but the bartender thought I should try the carnitas for one of them. They were both good, but the carnitas was excellent. Should have done both as carnitas! They came with a nice serving of rice and beans that were actually good! It's a big place right on Merrimon and like many restaurants on that street, parking is at a premium. There are like five spots on the side street right next to the building, but if you don't get one of those, you be walking either on the side street behind the building or across Merrimon. I was on the side street about two blocks behind the building at about 5:45pm. It's free parking, but plan accordingly. You may be walking a bit.

My only negative was that it took too long to get my margarita from the bar! Had it come sooner, i would have gladly ordered another one.

At first I was a little disappointed, but then I saw how much food I got for my meal, and I'm glad that I didn't get the chips and salsa b/c I wouldn't have been able to eat my meal! For entrees, I got the Grilled Garlic Steak Toastadas + grilled veggies + salad. My husband got the Puffy Wrap w/ Chicken + yuca + salad. It was so much food!
