    chips and guacamole
    Anne Marie H.

    My friend has been mentioning this place for a while, so I finally decided to try it on a Saturday evening around 5:30. The first thing I noticed was the fun decor and an easy-to-read menu on the wall. Although Taco Nano is the kind of place where you order, sit down, and they bring the food out to you, I was impressed that there was ample seating, including booths. I ordered a Vegetariano Al Carbon taco, a side of rice, a side of beans without cheese, and guacamole and chips (all vegan). The chips and guac came out first, and we both enjoyed them. The portion size was ample, and my friend appreciated that we could order it mild so it didn't have a ton of onions. I also liked the rice and beans. The taco was dry (I should have put some guacamole in it), but it tasted good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The taco was served on a reusable metal tray, but I did not like that the rice and beans came in throw-away plastic containers.

    Margarita And Vegetariano Al Carbon

    Had to check out another place in Northfield we heard good things about. It seems like all these are in strip malls, ironic for a pretty fancy suburb. Taco Nano has gotten lots of good reviews, and there's even awards for these on the walls. Lots of good choices for any preference, including margaritas. You can also get you drink on as well as eat on, and there's lots of choices for protein. A very casual place where orders are taken at a counter. It's then brought over. The prices seem kind of high for this kind of thing. High on the drinks especially. It's $10 for a Margarita. These come in pretty tiny cups, so not worth it for these. As for the tacos, there's a lot. We got some of the Vegetariano Al Carbon, the one without any meat. It's $4 each. These had carrots, crispy carrot strings, grilled portobello, red peppers, salpicon de serrano, and zucchini. Good flavor combination. These had texture and weren't all mushy like some vegetarian tacos can get. Good even though it's not authentic. It's more like a place for lunch than it is for anything fancy. The tacos mostly have meat except the one for vegans and vegetarians.

    Chopped up rubber band

    I used to love their tacos until I almost swallowed a piece of rubber band that holds vegetable bundle. But that wasn't the only issue. I called to tell them about it and they asked for pictures. so I sent few pictures but I didn't hear from them. So I called back and they said the manager will call me back which never happened. I called few more times asking for a manager, and they told me to call certain day certain time to speak to the manager. I wasn't asking to get a hold of a president. why does it have to be this difficult to get a decent customer service? They simply ghosted me and leave me no choice to write this review.

    Came on a recommendation from my coworker to try tacos. Being from NY, it's been rough trying to find decent mexican food with good flavor. The lady at the front was welcoming and helpful. The menu looked great with a good variety of options. The restaurant was well lit and welcoming. It had a nice ambiance with good spacing. We ordered the chicken taquitos, 6 tacos - pollo gringo, beef barbacoa, pork al pastor, carne asada, sea of cortez and the old el paso, as well as a Horchata. Chicken taquitos - was good. I wish the chicken was a little more moist and had a little more flavor but otherwise good with the 3 sauces they gave us. Out of the tacos, the pollo gringo, beef barbacoa, pork al pastor, and carne asada were a bit flavorless and dry in our opinion. They tasted okay but just seemed bland. Our favorite were the sea of cortez and the old el paso. They had a bit more flavor but was still mainly okay in our opinion. The horchata - was good. Wish it was a little less watery but had a nice cinnamon flavor. Overall, thought it was okay. Food was okay but nothing amazing.

    5 dollars for a cold carne asada taco, 5 dollars for a side, too expensive for non authentic tacos

    This place was good, but lacking a little flavor. It was also pricier than it should be for the…read moreportion and taste you get. Our server was nice, and the chips were all right, but I don't think I'll come back here again. Parking is either street parking or behind the building in a garage.

    This place was recommended by Diane at Lifetime Fitness as I'm always up for trying Mexican places…read moreespecially in the North Shore. I have to support el gente! Unfortunately they didn't support me. My son and I came here for lunch and we were really greeted as the bartender served as the host and a few other employees were doing stuff around the restaurant. We were seated and my son was hungry so I ordered his food right away which was Quesadillas con Queso. They came out quick but it would've been helpful to let me know the rice was a little spicy. If you need a high chair for someone at the table, you should probably let them know about the spice in the rice. Other than that, he ate the food. I asked for milk as well. I ordered the Carne Asada (yes a heavy my lunch order) but obvs I was hungry. It was very good and had some sort of marinade but couldn't figure out what it was. The rice and beans were bad as the rice didn't taste fresh and the beans were blah. Also I had to ask for more corn tortillas since I only got 3. The service was ok and I was never asked what I wanted to drink. My biggest beef was when other patrons (all Caucasian) walked into the restaurant, they were greeted immediately and made a hell of a lot more welcome than us. It was weird to hear how over accommodating that same person who was on his computer when we walked in, jumped off his seats for the other patrons walking in. The nicest person by far was a women who brought me more tortillas and actually engaged with my son. No need to come back here but cmon gente, get it together when fellow gente walk in.
