    Carnitas Quesasaladas with Mexican street corn
    Deb T.

    Excellent Food, Great service and very fun atmosphere. I can hardly wait to try a few tacos‼

    Southwestern Street Taco Salad

    Never once had bad service and the food is always amazing!! Definitely recommend! Giving this place a low rating is a crime! Straight to jail!

    Chips and queso

    I had high hopes for Taco Mamacita, I remember enjoying the location downtown. This one in Hamilton Place just didn't do it for me. It was pretty empty on a Monday night when we went. We were sat right away and our server was was friendly. The establishment is clean bathrooms are clean. I liked the feel of the restaurant beautifully decorated. It was the food that's causes this to have such a low rating for me. I don't mind food being expensive if I'm paying for quality. This meal was just expensive for no reason. Started with chips and queso and that was the best thing of the night. The margarita wasn't tasty for being strawberry flavored. The Birria tacos were some of the worst I've had. The shells were fried to the point of being so crunchy you could barely bite through it. The meat wasn't seasoned like with the basics: salt. The consume it comes with lacked flavor so dipping the Birria tacos in it was not helpful. As for the sides the Mexican corn had way too much chili powder on it you couldn't taste anything else and the Mexican rice was just meh also. I can cross this location off my list or hopefully they work through their kinks because Taco mamacita done right is delicious.

    I've been excited about this place going in at Hamilton Place since it was announced. Got to try it out and was so disappointed. The downtown location is one of our favorites but this place is trying too hard and not delivering on quality. It was dirty, food was cold and prices are outrageous. They need to get some help from the Northshore location and revamp themselves. We are not interested in giving this place a second chance.

    Diablo salsa  Mango salsa  Roasted tomato salsa

    This was our first time in and I'm so happy we gave it a try! The queso was very tasty and had enough density to stay on a chip, the mango salsa was soooo good!! I have issues with onions and since this salsa has no onions, I was able to eat it freely! Yay!! My margarita with Xicaru reposado mezcal and an upgrade of Cointreau was to die for delicious! My entree was so frigging good! I didn't take a pic, and don't remember the name, SORRY! But, it had 12 hour slow roasted half a chicken that was flash fried before serving. So moist and flavorful! I chose as my sides the street corn which was very good and sweet potato fries that were maybe the best I've ever had! Noel and Mattie at the bar were outstanding!! Please come check this fabulous spot out if you've not been here before!!

    Chip's and cheese

    I hate to be that guy but not sure we'll be coming back. The gold was very expensive for what would be an OK dinner, nothing to rave about. The Peruvian chicken was basically a rotisserie chicken, nothing to write home about. The tacos were definitely better than the chicken but still, not all that remarkable. The margaritas were very good, but since I'm not a big drinker , they didn't go very far to tilt my opinion of this place. Being from Nashville I had very high hopes. Maybe things will improve but I'll let other Yelpers pass along those updates.

    Food was terrible and portion size to price/value was criminal! $16.99 for some garbage nacho $13.99 for a Cali Cobb with a condiment size chicken to add on top. The Jalapeño Ranch was the only redeeming aspect, otherwise, this place needs to be gone!

    I should have gone to Taco Bell. Resturant wasn't very busy but I was essentially ignored the entire time I was there. I waited with an empty cup for the duration of my meal after one of the many servers told me they would get me more. I think I had 4 different servers over my time there. I think everyone there was just there to celebrate a birthday and those large parties took all the attention. When I actually got the food it was just ok. I've certainly had worse but I've definitely had better. I wasn't expecting authenticity but I expected a bit more presentation and better quality for the price. Good sweet potato fries though.

I personally loved the styling. The first thing that draws the eye is the bar area with what I can only describe as a wall of whiskey. They display literally hundreds of bottles of liquor nearly to the very high ceiling, all tastefully presented and back lit so that warm amber is the predominate hue. Just striking. The entire place was very swank. I immediately felt under dressed , but in reality our attire was on a par with everyone else. The staff was outstanding. Our waiter, Caleb, couldn't have been more genial and attentive. He took the time to explain the menu and highlight the specials. Very good at his job. I ordered Philadelphia Roll with Miso Soup. My wife had the Bluegrass Chicken which made her eyes roll with pleasure. She gave me a taste, and it was, indeed, great. My Sushi was fresh and outstanding. We shared a very good salad. Just first rate fare. Price wise, this is among the more expensive places, but well worth it. Quality costs, right? This will have to be one of our special places when we don't mind splurging a bit. No issues with accessibility with my wheel chair. Spacious, and, as I said, so tastefully appointed. Payment was a breeze with the handy WR code. Highly recommended.

They share the space with Malone's which is on the left when you walk in. The hosts at the front directed me to the sliding doors on the right where Harry's was. I got the Steak Sandwich with a side of crinkle fries. It was good. The fries were crispy and hot when they came out. When our food first came out, I didn't anticipate my sandwich to be pretty small. It was definitely smaller than I thought. I felt like my fries felt more plentiful than the main sandwich. The Steak Sandwich was delicious. I liked the provolone cheese and caramelized onions. And the steak was cooked pretty good too. My only complaint food-wise was that I expected more for the price I paid. I wish the sandwich was larger. Lastly, when me and my friend were in the middle of talking, our server interrupted us to ask if we needed a box and check. Our food was almost done, I was in the middle of eating my food listening to my friend but it was just such odd timing to ask that. It felt like we were rushed to be kicked out or something. After our waitress left, my friend and I looked at each other in confusion for a good moment. Also, we didn't "overstay" in the sense of staying and talking at our table for hours. We were just in the middle of our meal. I've dined in at a decent amount of places, and the waiters and waitresses have always swung by at a good time and sometimes later than we want which is understandable due to busy circumstances. But to ask with half a bowl of fries and a quarter of my sandwich left while I'm still eating and conversing? Maybe she's a new waitress and doesn't understand cues yet, but I've never experienced poor understanding and customer skills from a waitress. Food was decent, the hosts at the front were friendly and helpful, but service was poor. That was my experience and I don't think I'll be back again.
