Chips and queso
Lauryl B.

Service was great. I was charged for a full price margarita when it was happy hour and the bartender noticed before serving me and gave two drinks in lieu of a refund. People were friendly. Tacos had an earthy/dirt taste to them and for mango being in the name, there wasn't a lot of mango on the tacos. The chips and queso were just not good...soggy undercooked chips and no flavor in queso. Salsa was good with lots of cilantro. Mexican highball and frozen margarita were fine. Cute decor inside

The sauces and a margarita
Emily F.

Love this place! Incredible location, friendly staff, and wonderfully delicious food. The chips' texture is unmatched, and steak chimichurri taco is umami at its finest. Love that they have a variety of sauces. Great variety of seating both inside and outside, and I love the accessibility to other shops and a brewery. Definitely an elite, elevated taco experience.

Food is fantastic and it has an awesome atmosphere with a huge outdoor area with a small playground. We went recently for a birthday party with little kids and it's great for them to run around and play. I got the Baja nachos and they were fantastic and more filling than just the tacos. The food is quality but really the atmosphere is what makes this great.

Steak chimichurri no pico de gallo
Sandra K.

This is such a cool area to hang out. We came here for the Wheeler District Friday night farmers market. We had the steak chimichurri and barbacoa tacos. The barbacoa was flavorful. The steak chimichurri over was good but was lacking the chimichurri taste. Cashiers were nice and friendly. Taco prices did not reflect the prices on the menu posted on the board. They were .50c more. Taco prices were decent, chips were a little pricey.

Steak, chicken and fish taco

We had the tacos, chips and dip and beef nachos. The taco portion was a good size but the value for the nachos was too small for the price. We didn't realize the chips were free refills on the chips and dip. They didn't ask us for refills until we were full. Overall it was decent. Friendly service,

Tres amigos appetizer
Christy S.

Amazing experience at Taco Nation! We loved every bite, and we are already planning to take some friends back with us next week. The tacos were so delicious, and I highly recommend the tres amigos appetizer. Salsa, queso and guacamole served with chips. We got the large order and it was plenty for the three amigas who were sharing it. The guacamole was my favorite, so creamy and delicious. We had a bit of a wait, which is to be expected on a Friday night, but we easily found a table after we ordered at the counter. The cute dining space even offered some games to play while you wait. I'm ready to go back!

We popped in for an early dinner and loved everything! The atmosphere is super chill and relaxed. The employees were friendly and helpful. And the food...the FOOD! The salsa and guac are super fresh, and the chips are addictive. We also tried each of their taco sauces (with chips for dipping), and each was unique and flavorful. We tried the Steak Taco, the Baja Taco, and the Surf n Turf Taco. They all had a ton of flavor and were delicious! Definitely recommend and will definitely be back!

Great tacos for reasonable prices and excellent beverages. Spacious interior environs and also many tables. Service also very prompt and they bring you your food to the table. Got the fish and shrimp taco - both were excellent. Also got their horchata and house lemonade which were additionally exceptional. Highly recommended!

Baja taco
Tony S.

One of the many restaurants in the Wheeler District. Can get packed on the weekends, its a great place for a family outing as they have a large outdoor patio and right next to is the kid's playground. They also have table tennis and cornhole. But the main attraction is the food. Carne asada fries are fire! Definitely a shareable. Tacos are also large. My go-to is Barbacoa and unexpected the fish tacos were a hit. Definitely will have to come back to try the other items on the menu.

Plenty of street parking! When you look at the menu, you might think "wow, $5-6 a taco is kind of expensive", but they're massive. I barely could finish 3. One taco is like equivalent to 2 street tacos. I can't remember the names of each taco, however, they were all delicious!! Their chips and quest were also yummy; you can tell they're made fresh! They have bottles of various salsas at the counter that are self serve with small saucers/ramekins. Having a self serve salsa bar in the future would be a cool concept. It can get a little rowdy, esp for the weekends. Service was fantastic. Servers checked in and cleared the tables/dishes frequently. Will definitely return soon!

NDN tacos were fantastic. Almost as good as mine. Maybe better since I didn't have to make them! Ha!

Is this place only open Tuesday like it's showing on Yelp?

Normally we are going to various locations throughout the week. Our main consistent spot has been Tuesdays at The Big Friendly Brewery. But we are beginning to park there on Fridays as well from 5:30pm-8pm. We still have a few private events that… Read more

Surprisingly not busy on a Fri night for dinner, only 3 tables. But they sure had plenty of to-go…read moreorders. Service was prompt and friendly. One young lady server was running around behind the counter, helping the to-go station, and later helping out in the kitchen. Another lady appears to be dedicated to the to-go station. Then there were maybe 3 gentlemen working the kitchen. Hubs ordered the Grilled Shrimp Tacos and I got the Salad Bowl with Grilled Shrimp. We like it that they use red cabbage for the crunch. And I always get their Horchata to cut through the heat. Hanging tv's were on, but not sure what was playing. Mexican music in the background. Good quick in and out.

I've been to the food truck a few times and finally had a chance to visit their new location…read more It's a nice space inside, even including a bar for cocktails if you want. We came early and the frozen margaritas weren't ready yet, but the regular strawberry margarita was very delicious. I ordered the nachos and my friend got the tacos. I've has the tacos many times and already know how delicious and flavourful they are, I was ready to try something new. I enjoyed the nachos as well. Full of flavor and they give you lots of toppings. The service was great, we were there during lunch, so it wasn't very crowded, but she was still very attentive and checked on us often. I really enjoy this location and it's the perfect spot for family dinner, date night or out with friends.
