I knew of this place from a friend, and after seeing it on a foodies socials, I decided to stop in. Shelby was an our server and was sweet and attentive. She also read us through the specials. The Real Dill- even if you aren't a pickle love this was so good!! The battered fried chicken was delish and the pickle slaw was so good. The Cilantro Chicken taco- it was good, decent flavoring but I definitely preferred the Real Dill. I had both in a corn tortilla! Delish! The chips and queso were great! The chips came out HOT and seasoned well! I would definitely be back!! read more

New small chain taco spot in the location of an old favorite downtown. You enter into an opened up space that has a bar and a few TVs to watch the games and you can see back into the kitchen. Good amount of indoor seating so when it gets hot hot hot there are choices other than the lovely outdoor patio Staff was attentive but a bit reserved but they looked like they had just survived a major brunch rush. All Good and very good at explaining the menu items and making recommendations. All of which were spot on. We had the trio of "food before food" and at first I thought the portions in the plastic cups were going to be small. But for the two of us just right. And did not fill us up too much before the food came. We tried four different tacos. In order of preference for us after sampling them. 1: Steak was very flavorful and a good portion of protein. 2/3 tie: Fish and shrimp. Both had a good blackened flavor although the fish was cut up pretty small. Not the "fish taco" you get in CA. 4: Chicken. Good portion of shredded chicken. Not sure if the fixing made it cold or the chicken wasn't as hot as I would have expected but the last half of the taco was kinda cold to eat. Definitely coming back to try the specialty items as part of brunch. Protip. Military and first responder discount available. read more

Great lunch today. Super cute and BUSY, thriving location. Many of the reviews mention the excellent and attentive service and they are SPOT ON with that. The drunken burrito was good; would like to see maybe one or two other options for burritos not involving tater tots, but still good. (Definitely order that with extra salsa and queso...I regret that I didn't). The salsa trio was tasty, particularly the green "hot" salsa which definitely seemed homemade, though the guacamole was likely not. Nice sturdy hot and salty chips. Of the 3 tacos we tried, the shrimp was the standout. Not certain if they have a full bar. Very nice addition to this neighborhood & we will be sure to come back. read more

**UPDATED REVIEW FOR CONSISTENCY** After coming here multiple times, enjoying their mainstays on their menu, and experiencing experimental flavors on Fridays either they be a knockout, a-okay, or meh, Taco Dive has definitely earned its fifth star for consistently being an amazing Tex Mex dive for taco connoisseurs, such as I, to enjoy. Before continuing, all the details from my initial review are still in effect. Just updating for the fifth star. Probably the one minute detail that amazes (and frightens me to some extent) is that one of the co-owners, Danielle, seems to remember me whenever I step in. I purposely don't make a scene as I want my experiences and critique to explain my pleasure or displeasure of a local restaurant I partake in, but apparently I get around. Must be the connections to the chambers or all the geocaching and letterboxing I do. As for the other time I actually had wait service, Gia did a great job, too. And now she is another server who knows how to make a Melbourne, Florida Cocktail. Besides that, the tacos are, as mentioned in my initial review, priced fairly and very delicious. You can actually enjoy a filling meal on two tacos, which comes to around $11 to $14 if you stick to the three most popular tacos they have: steak, beef, and Cajun shrimp. I also have to stress how delicious the burritos are. There is one kind of burrito you can have called the "drunken burrito" which is your choice of protein wrapped in a warm flour tortilla, filled with diced tomatoes, creamy queso, shredded mixed cheese, and crispy tater tots. Protein choices include beef, pork, fish, steak, corned beef, chicken, shrimp, rice and beans, or no meat at all. You can also get a burrito bowl version, too, which removes the tortilla and automatically comes with rice. Ultimately, I am happy to give Taco Dive its fifth star. They've been consistently good and haven't dropped the ball every single time I have been there. Still, if they did, I would have averaged it out because no business is perfect. My suggestion, is to come on Fridays, order one of the popular flavor tacos and pair it with the special flavor of the day. Make sure to say hello to Danielle, and enjoy the deliciousness you will surely be thankful for. read more

Everything was great. I got a bowl but would get tacos if I went back. The medley appetizer was very good. Great guac & salsa. Apparently, the shrimp tacos are to die for per my son. The bowl was ok. Mostly rice. Overall we really enjoyed our food & would go back. The tacos should come with a side read more

Stopped in for lunch with hubs. Cute spot with indoor and outdoor (covered) seating options. Staff was friendly and welcoming. We started with the trio of dips, medium salsa (fresh, and not too spicy), guac (also fresh, buttery and refreshing) and queso (the white kind, my fave). The chips were crunchy. Then I had a pork taco, with pineapple and their special sauce. This was yummy, a take on Al pastor, though less traditional and larger than a street taco. I'd order it again. Hubs had the steak taco and a cajun shrimp taco. He would go back, but he wasn't blown away. He said "not the best I've had, but they scratch an itch" The waitress told us these were the 3 most popular tacos on the menu. We ended our meal w churros, served in ~2 inch pieces with caramel sauce, a nice sized portion for 2 to share. These are also worth going back for. Welcome to the area taco dive! read more

Great food, great service. Indoor and outdoor seating with a nice vibe. Love the vegetarian options! Food was made fresh to order. There wasn't anything I'd change. So good! Stop in, there's great food here!! read more

It was empty on a Saturday afternoon when we arrived. We were greeted by the girl at the counter. We've never been before so the waitress explained the menu to us. We went with the trio dip and chips - only con was the queso dip was super salty. Our food was good, fresh. It's a cool spot! Would come back again next time we're in town. read more

Swordfish tacos were tasty. Prices are decent. I guess the portions were reasonable. I'm not sure if I'd visit again. I only saw shrimp & fish tacos to be interesting. I do like that they have FL lager & other options on draft. Service was timely. Establishment seemed clean. The have outside seating. I do prefer other taco spots to this one. read more

I like their veggie taco with fried tomatillos. I usually get the lemon aioli since that seems to brighten it up. My husband got one steak & grits taco and one shrimp & grits taco from their brunch menu (served until 4:00pm). He enjoyed both but the egg was really runny on the steak one. He said the shrimp one was slightly better. We got tots smothered in queso too which are always good. Friendly servers, lots of outdoor seating, just a bit spendy. $45 after tax and normal tip for 3 tacos, tots, and 2 waters. read more

When I think of a "dive" I think of a run down place that has great food and/or drinks. This place has great food but is far from run down. The industrial-chic vibe is clean and inviting. The staff is helpful and friendly. It's got good prices and is a great place for the whole family. read more

Service was actually amazing! Best service we've had in the area! We tried the brunch menu and were lucky enough to get the last Dixie chick taco! I also tried the raspberry lime Rickey which was delicious and so refreshing! I loved the casual vibe and how delicious the food was and I will definitely be back! read more

Second visit was fantastic! We sat inside at a table for four. It was clean and nice. We ordered the Trio appetizer which had the best tasting guacamole, queso and salsa. The pork taco was delicious, filling, and reasonably priced. The Thai sauce that goes on it was so good. Harley, our server, was very good. She explained the menu and gave us some suggestions. Definitely coming back again. read more

So, I'm used to going to CantinaLouie in Melbourne, awesome Mexican restaurant great value, taco dive you buy whatever taco you want, they are good tacos, however, they're very pricey. I had two tacos, the pork taco and the steak taco and I had two beers and my bill was $31.50. Value for what you get, definitely try CantinaLouie. I wanted to give a small business a shot, but this will definitely be a one and done for me. CantinaLouie, you get much more food and free chips and salsa, which are delicious. Here if you want chips and salsa it's an extra seven dollars. I would have given taco dive 3 1/2 stars but I can't give half stars. read more

Taco Dive - Beef and pork tacos - Tacos Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

Taco Dive is amazing. The franchisee of this location is a passionate and hands-on owner who has created a great team; I admire the work ethic. My favorite taco is shrimp on a single corn tortilla (usually comes on 2 corn shells, but flour shells are also available) with: sauce on the side, add corn and bean salsa, side of medium salsa, large side of guac. These shrimp are beautifully cooked, tender and plump, four to a taco. (Yes, I'm in love.) Appreciate the option to put any taco on a lettuce bed, too. The steak tacos are fire, and the corned beef option is equally fantastic yet totally surprising. Tater tots rock (yes, you can get them in a burrito, I know you thought about it too.) There's really something for everyone. I can't do it justice. Just ate lunch here today, and I'm still thinking about it. I never get sick of the food because of the wonderful variety, stopping in tomorrow to try brunch menu for the first time. Shrimp and grits tacos are a Sunday special. read more

First time at Taco Dive and it won't be my last! I had a craving for tacos and decided to make a quick stop for a to-go order--so glad I did. The fish and shrimp tacos were both fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The relaxed, comfy vibe and upbeat music created the perfect lunchtime atmosphere. Gia provided exceptional customer service with a warm smile, and her recommendations were spot on. I can't wait to come back and dine in soon! read more

Let's start with the service. Our waitress Haley was extremely attentive, ready with recommendations and was amazing over all. Never did my Coke Zero go empty. The food was absolutely delicious!! Fresh, HOT, flavorful and sooooo good. Had the fish sandwich. Bread was warm, soft and the fish was cooked to perfection and loved the slaw. Flavors were on point. Such a cute little restaurant. 10/10 completely recommend. read more

My wife and I have three kids ages 4, 3, and 11 months. I was skeptical of taking the family to what seemed to be a high end taco place, but limited options on New Year's Day forced my hand. What a pleasant and delicious surprise! The service was great. The waitresses were so kind to my kids and even gave a small stuffed animal to each of the older two! The food arrived quickly (big plus for small kids) and was delicious (big plus for parents). The prices and portions were what you'd expect from a fancy taco place. My wife and I especially enjoyed the Irish and the fresh fish tacos. They are also conscientious toward those with food allergies. For example, they use a separate oven for gluten free options, which is a big deal if you have celiac. We will be back! read more

Overall I was disappointed. I liked the vibe of the restaurant. The waitress was nice and attentive. We thought the prices were high for what we got. Husband had 3 tacos and I had two. The waitress said the tacos were larger than normal. We disagreed. We walked away paying $50 for 5 tacos and 2 drinks--and we are both still hungry. There was so little in my first taco ( mahi) that my first bite was only shell. The blackened shrimp was super salty. Not impressed. For a restaurant that specializes in tacos, I thought there would be more variety. Sorry taco dive, I probably will not go back. read more

Taco Dive; small place, outdoor patio with most seating. Little noisy with traffic. Staff cannot be more friendly & attentive. Street parking only. No taco specials for Tuesdays. Being vegetarian, I ordered; one each - portobello, mahi & veggie. All loaded & very flavorful. Each it's own distinct flavors too. The tostados were browned & warm. Guac app came with chips, & was fresh & tasty, with plenty to bring home! No free chips & salsa. They're an app also. Modelo was cold & refreshing. I'm very satisfied! Bill total was without cash tip. I will gladly go again! Oh, & place was pretty clean. https://tacodive.com/locations/melbourne/ read more
