The hubby surprised me by taking me here for my birthday. What a great experience! The setting is an old methodist church built in the 1800's. The lights are low and the vibe is comfortable. We went for dinner but there were so many tasty sounding appetizers that we ordered 3. Needless to say, that was so much food, we will have to return to try the tacos. Birthday churros were amazing and our server was one of the best we have had in a long time! He was helpful, attentive and kind- Thank you Frank for making the evening so enjoyable! We will be back. read more

Hello everyone, another adventure to get out of the house, we headed over to Phoenix this morning to go see the Heard Museum. We've been here a few other times but we try to visit when in the area, the food has always been very good and with the variety of tacos they serve I'm sure there will be something for you to enjoy, we did start off with chips & salsa before the main dishes, l had the Baja Fish tacos and they didn't disappoint along with that I also had the infused habanero corn on the cob a must try if you haven't had it, Jen went with the Pork Taco and it was a really good choice, just an FYI these tacos are packed so when ordering might want to do 2 rather then 3. The service was good we never had a empty glass and was asked if everything was good. The building is really cool and the interior is very cool with all the stained glass windows, this was once a church and later bought and converted to a restaurant. Well, you heard it from me so all you need is to try it out for yourself and let us know what you think. read more

Love their tacos and margarita flight! Tacos are a generous size. I've tried 4 different tacos during my 2 visits here and they all were pretty delicious. The most recent visit I had the pina colada taco and the new marg flight (choice of 3 from a pretty long list, on the rocks or frozen). The taco had yummy coconut shrimp and diced pineapple on flour. I added hot salsa which really added to the flavor! Complimentary chips and salsas are very good. They serve 3 salsa types (1 mild, 2 hot), and i liked them all. For my on the rocks flight I chose prickly pear, guava and passionfruit. I love prickly pear but this one didn't shine like my other 2 choices. Still tasty tho. My party of 3 enjoyed their tacos and we all agree that the atmosphere adds to the experience! The bar is very ornate and fits well with the stained glass windows. An almost heavenly experience! read more

In Phoenix and wanted to change up the taco scene with a return to an old favorite, Taco Guild. Located in an old church, the interior still is ethereal and the old alter being the bar is innovative. You feel like you need to speak quietly but obviously, that is not the case. The chips and salsa are a good start with three different spice levels. The chips are fresh and perfectly salted. Tacos here are not street tacos and that is evident by the prices, a healthy chunk per taco. We each ordered two tacos that are full sized and stuffed with ingredients. The fried fish taco was lightly battered and flaky cod with Mexican slaw and chipolte aioli. The dry Mexican slaw overwhelmed the dish and made it difficult to taste the other ingredients. The carnitas taco with braised pork, pickled onions and cilantro was juicy. The panko coconut shrimp with diced pineapple salsa and green onion needs more salsa or an aioli for flavor. Our final taco was the shredded duck breast with lemon / pineapple crema, duck skin chicharron, green onions and pear slaw. Again, a weaker flavor profile and no WOW factor. Taco Guild has a beautiful building, interior and layout but the large tacos are lacking real flavor combinations that make you wanting to return. The tacos are stuffed and large but not memorable, it taste to much like fillers not flavor bombs. I hope that a review and tweak of the menu will propel they back to more exciting times. read more

Taco Guild holds a special place in my heart. When I was moving to Phoenix, I came a few months early to search for a place to live. During this trip, after arriving in Phoenix, the first place I had dinner was Taco Guild. Ambiance (5/5): This is one of the areas where Taco Guild shines. This Mexican restaurant and bar is housed in what used to be a church. What cool surroundings! They live up to the vibe inside with chandeliers, stained glass windows, and more. Really cool ambiance. On my most recent visit, I sat at the bar. Service (4/5): Solid service overall. The bartenders were nice, attentive, and my evening ran smoothly. I had a good number of cocktails and they also hooked me up with some free chips and salsa even though I wasn't eating. That was a nice touch. My only complaint? They close pretty early. I would expect a place like this to stay open until midnight or later. Drinks (4.5/5): Solid list of cocktails, with an emphasis on tequila and mezcal as you would expect. I had their shot of the day (which was tequila based), two of their margaritas (their classic and one aged in barrels), and a mezcal Old Fashioned. All of my drinks were elevated and well done. And the best part is they have both a happy hour and a reverse happy hour. I took advantage of their reverse happy hour with a nice discount on my cocktails. Food (4/5): While I didn't eat on my most recent visit, I did the first time. But let me start off by saying their chips and salsa are to die for. They serve you three salsas: red, green, and orange. The orange is spicy, so I stayed away from it because I'm not that life. I tend to gravitate toward green salsa, but here, the red salsa is the star. It's arguably the best salsa I've had in my life! Try it, I bet you'll agree with me. On my first visit, I had three tacos. Taco Guild is the type of spot with elevated, creative tacos. The only downside? The food is a bit pricey. The tacos weren't huge, but they were good. I'm looking forward to my next visit to try more of their food. The chips and salsa will be a given. The deviled eggs looked great too. One of the coolest spots I've been to in Phoenix! read more

When you walk in, the stained glass windows stand out in the very cool decor and atmosphere. We were early on a Friday night before it was too crowded as we had a show at the theater to go to. The server was friendly and informative and in fact sat with us several times to answer questions. Chips come out with 3 home made salsa's. I like hot, but the hottest (I was warned was too hot for me!). The medium was so good we asked if they sold it, but they were out of bottles at the moment to the server brought me a little to take home. FOOD was all for the most part really great!!! When, not if we go back, we will skip the brisket Taco and if I get the street corn, I will get the spiced version not the traditional version. DRINKS were also outstanding. My wife enjoyed one of the Margarita where you get to choose the flavor and I have Both a Tequila and Mezcal Old fashion and discovered one of my new favorite drinks, that Mezcal Old Fashion! Then DESERT. We opted for the Chocolate Cheesecake so we could share and it was Very Good, but my have to try the Key Lime Brulé next time!! read more

Last night was my first time visiting Taco Guild. This has got to be one of my top taco spots. I loved the chips and salsa. But we also got some chorizo queso which was DIVINE. I also ordered a couple tacos, one which was coconut shrimp. So good!!! I enjoyed a great spicy margarita. And our service was great! What a fun spot if you're bringing folks from out of town. It's in an old church and it's beautiful! Thank you a wonderful experience! read more

We came for dinner on a Saturday night and reservations are definitely needed. The staff is very friendly and helpful when picking what to order. I had Barbacoa and chipotle cherry steak tacos, while my partner had carnitas, California and the shrimp fajita. We both LOVED our food. The chipotle cherry steak was such a bold and delicious flavor. Never had tacos like this and I'm so impressed with the flavor combinations! The restaurant is in an of church and the ambiance is so cool. I think they really hit the spot with this place! We did order the churros and didn't love the caramel filling. Otherwise everything was amazing! read more

We are a fan. Love that we can enjoy tacos and drinks inside of this historic church. The complimentary jalapeno house salsa and house chips were great. Loved the green chile queso. Enjoyed the cherry steak taco. We also liked the enchilada, shrimp taco, and california taco. Also, we had the best horchata here! I also asked for a shot of Captain Morgan which they happily gave me so I could add it to my horchata. There was a wait on a Wednesday night so I recommend making a reservation. read more

The Taco Guild is such a cool venue. My mom and I were cruising down the road looking for a place to eat. I spotted a few different options on Yelp, this being one of those options. As we drove by, I yelled, "Turn here!" so that my mom would pull into the right driveway. The building is an old church that has been converted into a restaurant. They have kept many of the structures that make it familiar as a church such as the stone steeple outside, the stained glass windows inside, and pew seats converted into dining chairs throughout the great hall. It is fun to see the full bar positioned where you would normally find the pulpit, but instead of a preacher, there is a bartender serving your favorite libations and large screen television showing the latest game. Tacos aren't the only thing on the menu. While these all seemed delicious, we both enjoyed a chile rellano. Prior to that, we indulged in their white queso with green chiles. It was so addictive we took some home with us. The food is very anglicized. If you are from the midwest, it will probably seem authentic. If you have been living in the southwest and eating any combination of Mexican, TexMex, CaliMex, New Mexican food, this place probably won't be that pleasing to your palette. It's decent food, but if I had a chance to return or try something new in the area, I'd opt for the latter. Although it was a fun experience because of the ambience. Plus the staff were friendly and diligent in performing their jobs. read more

Cool atmosphere and the bartender was pretty friendly however this place is expensive and the taco was mediocre in my opinion. I had the chicken tinga and a side of beans. This was my second stop of the day after going to huarachis downtown, might not be fair to compare the two but.. they're both Mexican restaurants that sell tacos in Phx... disappointing experience here however gorgeous restaurant and like I said the bartender was friendly and changed the tv to the golf tourney at my request which I always appreciate. Margs were good too but I don't think I would return. read more

The holy grail of tacos no pun intended. This taco spot is in uptown phoenix. This location used to be a church but they revamped it to a taco spot. I love confession hour lol pun intended and taco Tuesday! I know 8 bucks is a bit much for a taco but they are gourmet and more than enough protein, toppings, and flavor in each. I only ate two the last time I went. There was nothing old about their old fashion very tasty no cherry. Service was great and they filled up that chip bowl at least 3 times . Great service, nice ambiance you can come here for a corporate event, happy hour with friends or a date. Highly recommend ! read more

Taco Guild - Tacos with a side a plantains - Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Top notch tacos, excellent service, and cool atmosphere. Next time I'm in Phoenix, I'm coming back!

This feels like one of those places people hype up more than necessary because the interior and overall concept are undeniably cool. Don't get me wrong, the tacos were good, but the price point felt a little hard to justify. I'd personally rather head to Taco Chelo or Céntrico for a more satisfying value. That said, if you're stopping by for a small bite or a single drink, the space itself is worth seeing. The stained glass and renovated church setting are genuinely striking and give the place a unique atmosphere. The key lime crème brûlée was solid, but it didn't quite wow me but the service was good and I can appreciate that. read more

First time here, landed at this place without really looking. I sat at the bar and walked right in. The service was great, super friendly and attentive. I had the shrimp ceviche plate and a duck taco to go with that. Both were delicious, I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu. The highlight of the meal though was my cocktail, I ordered a Paloma and I was so so happy to find out that it wasn't sweet at all. I was a little apprehensive to order a cocktail for that reason, yet it was perfectly tart and refreshing. I love that I'm finding great places to eat at here in Phoenix, being I just moved here. read more

UPDATE - Taco Guild is truly a GEM! The bartending technique here is better than most upscale steakhouses in Phoenix. The cocktails are not cheap, but they are worth the price especially on HH. The ice cubes are crystal clear and they have a special shaped one for the highballs. I had the Mescal Manhattan and it was properly cooled and diluted before pouring on the beautiful cube. The balance was spot on for me. Our bartender was attentive and accurate with our orders. The complementary chips and salsas are next level. You get three salsas/sauces to sample on the thin and crispy chips. Don't freak out when you see the pricing on the tacos. They range from $7-10 but these are not little street tacos. One could be a meal especially paired with the chips and salsa. Two tacos were almost more than we could handle. The Chipotle Cherry Steak was tasty -albeit a bit sweet for my taste. My wife loved the Carnitas and my favorite was the California or the Shrimp. Just do it! You won't be disappointed if you like well executed cocktails and great Southwest flavors. read more

Ive been back with friends for tacos Tuesday many times since I've enjoyed the salmon taco and steak taco but add to it the spiciest salsa. Two tacos is generally enough food because of the portions. I've heard the lamb taco is just okay. House margarita, mango marg, or the cucumber gin drink are all good choices. CHURROS ARE AMAZING. Caramel sauce and caramel ice cream is served along side it. A must get. Dining room can get loud if you're hard of hearing but staff was happy to accommodate a change in seating. Servers are always kind and upbeat. read more

My husband and I traveled from San Antonio, Texas to enjoy a weekend in Arizona celebrating our anniversary and his birthday. We are very harsh critics of tacos being from South Texas so we wanted to see what Arizona had to offer. We were in desperate need of some food after feeling like we were about to die, trying to foolishly hike the Cholla Trail on the Camelback Mountains. I stayed in the car while my husband ran inside to grab us some tacos and drinks before heading back to our hotel since we had a dinner reservation later that evening. My husband asked the bartender which of the beef tacos which was better, the barbacoa or the brisket. The guy strongly recommended the brisket, so that's what we went with. We also got the chicken tinga taco and the Mexican Coke and we were given a free order of chips and salsa. The beef taco was very good, very creative. The slaw and fried pickle chips were really good, but the brisket was a bit too lean and dry to work well in a taco. We were definitely expecting it to have a little bit more fat and moisture. The chicken taco was insanely delicious, we absolutely loved it! Their tacos come on corn tortillas that are thin but sturdy, and they warmed them up just right, nothing worse than a cold corn tortilla that rips in the middle of eating. The chips and salsa were so delicious, the chips were still hot as if they just made them and the salsa definitely tasted like it was fresh from that morning. The price-point was definitely higher than what we would pay in San Antonio but everyone told us that is to be expected one in Scottsdale. The restaurant itself is an old renovated cathedral and it is so beautiful! There were so many beautiful places to see, I'm definitely looking forward to planning another trip to Arizona. read more

Our recent visit to Taco Guild was unfortunately underwhelming. Although the atmosphere is unique and what appears to be an old, renovated church, the service was lackluster, and the food lacked flavor. We were sitting out on the patio and felt that we saw every other table servers 3 to 4 times more frequently than we saw our own. We are commonly waiting 15 to 20 minutes for our water to be refilled. The tacos that we had is our main were OK, but seemed to lack flavor. I was particularly disappointed with the Barbacoa tacos, which I did not feel had lot of wow factor to them. Overall, it was an adequate meal, but not up to the flavor or service standards that I was expecting. read more

Cool place, interesting being in an old church and very good tacos. The chips are light and good. Salsa trio is impressive with a nice variety of tasty, tangy, and spicy but not deathly. The queso was a really generous serving and plenty to share for a group. The house margarita was a little weak for me but perfect for my wife. I had a Maestro Dobel margarita that was delicious. The barbacoa and carnitas tacos were very good. The brisket had a nice Smokey flavor but was overly fatty. The rice was a bit bland. We also got the elote in a bowl. Nice flavor, but clearly not just shaved off the cob. The grilled burrito and quesadillas look good. Something to try next time. read more

Being from So Cal, you know I had to compare the taco scene. With as many reviews this place had, I still have to say Cali reigns supreme. The food and service was great, but the the style of the taco choices weren't really authentic. The building is the 2nd oldest in Phoenix which is a church converted into a restaurant. Really cool vibes, decor, and atmosphere. As for the food, the queso bacon cheese dip was good but felt it was a bit too processed. The chips and salsa were actually really good. The regular salsa was better than the green and habanero. To start, tortillas were amazing and the size of 1 taco has enough meat for 2...but for the meats, the chipotle cherry steak was the most recommended but I felt it tasted like it was marinated in cherry juice and not cooked with cherry wood. The California taco was cool. The brisket taco was lacking a bit of flavor. The duck taco was really good. A must visit if you're in the area but you really can't compare it to true tacos from MX. read more

Hands down the best queso of all time and the trio of salsas you get on arrival are each unique and incredible! A tried and true, my ride or die and worth every penny, the chipotle cherry steak taco on the homemade corn tortillas. Truly an art piece of a taco. These tacos are incredibly filling; especially if snacking on chips, but if you feel like you truly want the whole experience, the guild style style street corn is spicy buttery perfection in a cup! read more

Genuinely I had zero intentions of eating tacos but my friend was begging me to try this place. We went thrifting then went over and OH MY GOD. I felt like I walked into an old Catholic Church. The vibes were immaculate. I felt like I was 5 again attending a mass service. Our waiter Missy was so attentive and so sweet. She gave us recommendations and honestly am so grateful she told us about the ceviche. The BEST I have ever had. Let's talk about the tacos. Listen I'm a big eater and love consuming delicious food and when I heard the tacos are al a carte I was a little bitter until I saw how much was loaded on there. I thought there is no way im going to be full but after complimentary chips and house made salsa, ceviche, and those two loaded tacos. I WAS FULL! The protein and flavors mmm. If you have always wanted to eat tacos in a Catholic Church then I'm telling you GO HERE or even if you want yummy tacos then come too!!!! I shall bring my manz here heheh read more

We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and there was only about 3 - 4 parties seated and no wait time. The customer service was nice because not only did our server tend to our need but the bartender also made sure to come over to personally ask what we would like to drink and made sure that we were taken care of with our drinks. For starters we had the chips and salsa and all 3 of the salsas were fantastic. Beware of the orange one though! It may be habanero but it has a spice that hits your mouth at the back end. We ordered the carnitas and barbacoa tacos on flour tortillas. The tacos were really good to us and better than most taco spots in our opinion. The ambiance is nice as well. I would like to see how it looks at night but the vibe during the day is pretty cool. We'll be back when we're looking to grab a bite with friends read more

So glad someone recommended this place! I've driven by numerous times and so glad i finally stopped by on Cinco de Drinko. Happy hour is from 2pm to 6 pm. $2 off margaritas, wine, and beer and starters. The summer solstice margarita was delicious and so was the mango 1893. The peach sangria was good, but too sweet for me. I had the guac, and the Chipotle cherry steak taco on their homemade corn tortilla, both were delicious. Their salsa was to die for. How cool that this was a former church. I love the ambiance of this place. The bartenders were awesome and cute, too. Lol. The tacos are a bit pricy for 1 taco, but I would definitely recommend trying this place out if you're in the Phoenix area. read more

Food was fine. I had no problem with that, although it came out in 5 minutes. So it makes me wonder how much of it was premade. They actually have delicious salsa. I especially liked the carrot salsa. The experience was kind of strange. I expected a Mexican style restaurant and it felt like I was inside of a renaissance cathedral, but with lame 90s pop music, and a couple of TVs above the bar to give off a sports bar feel. What really got me was when the server brought the check over and told us that we would actually have to pay for the side order of rice that she originally told us was complimentary. That is such a bad look, and it makes me feel like crap when I speak up and say that it isn't right to do that to customers. Also, restaurant need to stop showing the tip percentage amounts on the receipt with the sales sax already added in. Really? You want me to tip on the sales tax? read more

I've visited this restaurant a few times before for special occasions and previously had very good experiences, which is why this visit was especially upsetting. This was also my first time bringing my children, who had saved up money to take me out for Mother's Day dinner. Unfortunately, almost every item we ordered had quality or preparation issues. We started with the Guild Fries appetizer, which arrived completely drenched in what tasted like a bland mayonnaise-based sauce with almost no flavor besides an overwhelming cumin taste. On top of that, there was an excessive amount of guacamole dumped over the fries, making them extremely soggy and unpleasant to eat. My daughter ordered the Chipotle Cherry Steak Taco in a lettuce cup and specifically requested blue cheese, which was completely missing. The lettuce itself was wilted and brown around the edges, which honestly made it look like it was going bad. My husband ordered the duck taco, which was supposed to include crispy duck skin, but the amount served was barely larger than a fingernail. There was also no cream included, making the taco dry and very unsatisfying overall. I ordered the Jackson taco, which was sloppily plated and absolutely drowned in grease. It was nearly impossible to pick up without everything sliding apart. I was also surprised to see repeated menu spelling issues. The menu repeatedly uses the word "consume" instead of "consommé," while online it correctly says "side of consommé." It gives the impression that there is very little attention to detail or proofreading happening. The overall experience was extremely disappointing. The quality of the food has declined severely from what I previously experienced at Taco Guild, while the prices continue to rise or remain high without the quality to justify them. This was honestly sad to experience on what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day dinner with my family. I felt dissatisfied to the point of being genuinely disgusted by parts of the meal, I did take the time to also email the manager who's email is listed on the website and so far I have gotten no response or acknowledgment. read more

When a friend came into town and wanted tacos, I thought of this place. I have been here before but it has been 10+ years. The location is lovely. It looks like a church, with huge stain glass windows. Parking is limited, but the neighborhood has street parking too. It was fairly busy on a Friday night. We made reservations ahead of time just in case as well. They had live music, which was quite loud. It made it hard to have any sort of conversations. He took a break and the noise level was so nice. He was great... Just very loud. Service was pretty good. Our server was lovely and informative. He made up for a late drink with a free dessert so that was nice. Now for the most important part, the food. The tacos are a bit pricey, but they are bigger than typical street tacos. I had the lamb and the cherry steak. The lamb was not my favorite honestly. I would have rather have 2 of the steak because it was delicious. The chips and salsa were good. The spicier options were spicy, but not that tasty for me. I got the street corn off the cob, and it was good. I've had better, but I've also had worse. Overall, I'm glad I came back after so long. I just might not come back on a music night, or request outdoor seating instead. read more

My husband and I frequent Taco Guild at least once a month for the past 8 years. We went on our second date here when we first met so this place is near and dear to us. Our Favorite taco is the chipotle cherry steak we get it on lettuce cups. Eating the whole bowl of Chips and salsa is the very reason for lettuce cups instead of Tortillas. ( which are also very delicious btw) The green salsa in my opinion is the best. If you are looking for great service, atmosphere, tacos and brunch on the weekends in a historic church you must try. read more

First, what a beautiful place. Worth going to just to see the inside of this old church - gorgeous renovation to current restaurant. We went on a late afternoon during happy hour, around 4 pm I think on a Monday. Not very busy at all, maybe 6 total people. As we left later, was a little busier and I could tell if it was fuller it would be really loud and difficult to hear which is a big negative to me. 8 of us total, but 4 arrived first and were served chips and salsa, but not warned about how spicy the orange one was - beware! Even the red and green had a bit of kick but not too bad. Great chips! Margarita's were on happy hour special, so several of us had some of differing types. Very yummy but a bit small and less alcohol than what we were used to. The one beer on tap i had was ok. Food - we all had a variety of taco's and one person had a pasta dish. They varied - some good, some great, and some meh. A pork one was good; fish based one was fairly good; others so so overall. We also got rice on the side and it was very bland and disappointing - more than one person said this. Street corn was good overall - one spicy and one not and we liked both. Sad about dessert - a coffee brûlée sounded fantastic but they were out of it, so we left without any dessert. Service was great overall; value ok overall. Might be back but only possibly for the views and a little food. read more
