Solid place for Mexican food in downtown Toms River area. Got food to go and enjoyed at the brewery, which I highly recommend. Got the elite and the chilaquiles which were both really good. The price was really fair too. The only thing is that the food took a longer time than expected. We ended up getting 2 orders of drinks while waiting. From what I could tell, we were the only people who ordered food when we ordered in the afternoon. Otherwise the food was amazing, and will be back. read more

Al pastor was super salty and dry! It was chopped up too fine, not authentic at all , the chips were like Doritos, disappointed

Can't comment on service or ambiance as we ordered takeout, this was our third time. The food is just fantastic. So fresh, flavors are outstanding. Picture is my burrito, Al pastor (pork w/pineapple), which was top notch. Chips on side are homemade and yummy. Verde salsa is some of the best I've ever had. Not a bad thing to say about this place. read more

Taco-Tastic - Mexican Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Tacos, tamales and 1 sad lonely elote. Our son and his girlfriend have eaten here before a few times, actually .... and really wanted this for our family lunch over at my MIL's, he was pretty clear when he said, "Mom, it's not your cooking or Nana's recipes and we are not in California anymore sooooo....." Being a Yelper, I go in with an open mind and positive attitude and I really miss goood Mexican food and I don't always want to be the one cooking it, LOL. Was it the best I have ever had, no, not really. Being born and raised in Ca, being Hispanic I have had the best of the best, but for those that may not know better or want to experience as close to an authentic flavor as you are going to get on the East Coast, then this is ok. Tamale was very dry and the masa to meat ratio was way more masa than meat. I definitely used the red salsa to make it more edible. Elote was good but at $7.00 you are better off doing your own as home. Lunch for 5 people over $94.00 but- it's not the price, I'll gladly pay more way more for food that is worth it, this was steep for taste that wasn't there. I prefer to eat at Texas Mexican on Main Street in Freehold. read more

The worst Mexican food I've ever had. The "Mexican tacos" were made with mystery meat horrible tasting and bland. The naco chips where cold and it was obvious it was canned cheese. The tacos where cold and chewy. The fish tacos where heavily breaded with unseasonably batter. The chorros were cold and hard as a rock. The staff could not care nor did the offer to rebook the food. I thought Taco Bell was bad but this place is worse read more

Taco-Tastic - Worst taco ever - Mexican Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Always terrific! We had the empanadas and a shrimp burrito bowl. Hot, delicious and plentiful. We have gotten food from here several times this summer and last and it never disappoints. Consistently delicious! read more

Think twice before ordering here.. The empenadas looked like a can of dog food in a fried shell. It smelled like it too. I asked for a refund as they were not edible and the staff was rude. I've had lots of empenada and never had I had one look like this. Never. I don't even know what was on or because it looked like pudding. I took pictures. Literally brown pudding. Kayla, Fernando and Juan got the manager on the phone to see about a refund and he verbally berated and screamed at me saying I suck as a costumer and he doesn't give a shit if I don't like the food, too bad. He doesn't do refund. Either I can have a tamale or taco. I explained I didn't want anything else and it's not ok to talk to customers that way. He yelled get the fuck out of my restaurant. This is my restaurant you hear me? read more

If you love authentic tacos and Mexican food they will bring you back for more! The fish tacos and golden tacos with steak are awesome with fresh cilantro and of course with corn tortillas! They have a menu you just want to order everything on it ! A+ in my book!!!!! read more

Would have past it but decided to walk in. Best decision ever! Shrimp tacos and they were divine . Recommend totally!

Empamada was packed with chicken but no flavor. Shrimp soft tacos, great flavor, too much cabbage. read more

We did take out and this was such a good meal. Al pastor burrito, chips, beef empanada, friend plantains, and tres leches. The prom was super flavorful and everything tasted fresh. Definitely getting food from here again. read more

Taco-Tastic - Al Pastor Burrito. Tortilla chips. - Mexican Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

I've ordered from this place probably 4 times within the past two months. Each time has been consistently good quality food. From tacos, tostadas, burritos, nachos to the basics.. guac, rice and beans. Definitely one of my top 5 places for takeout. read more

All I can say is WOW! So freaking good. After living in California and Texas for years...where great Mexican food is a given...I couldn't be more excited to find great AUTHENTIC Mexican food here in Toms River, NJ. We ordered the Mexicana Burrito with Chicken and the Classic Burrito with chicken. Not only was it big and stuffed full of fresh ingredients...it was grilled to perfection. The salsa is on point. The tortillas chips were abundant. And the churros? The churros were absolutely delicious. The price was more than fair. And since it's Covid-19 rules...everyone was wearing a mask. Ten minutes after ordering, I ran in quickly for my pick-up (mask on)...the place was spotlessly clean and the staff was super friendly. I have finally found my go-to burrito and taco spot. read more

Downtown location. Overpriced for not a lot of food. Ordered a side of guacamole and it was $6.00 for a medium. I can only imagine the size of it if I had ordered a small. The medium cup was the size of a take-out ketchup cup. Ridiculous. I'm assuming for $10 the large would not be much larger. read more

I can't even speak to the food yet, but I can speak to the way I was treated by the person at the counter. I can tell you that no matter how good the food is I will never return here. I was treated like a complete a****** that told no over and over and over again even after I show them my order on my phone. Then I was forced to wait an extra 20 minutes even though my order was supposed to be ready 5 minutes before I walk into the door. That's definitely going to be it for me, I will not be coming back. read more

I did pickup, so can't speak to delivery, but everything tasted very fresh. Fish for the tacos, hand battered, to order. Saw them making the kettle of rice for dinner service and it looked divine. Had a ground beef burrito and flavors were on point. Guac was creamy with just the right amount of Serrano and not too much onion. Wish chipotle mayo was a side option on the menu. Would also like a true habanero sauce option. But otherwise, wish this place opened a location in my town. read more

Things happen and its how a business responds or does not that shows its character. We ordered on-line $80.00 of food which we were looking forward to getting. We ordered from their website, not Door Dash or Grub Hub. Unfortunately the driver dropped the food in the driveway when the overstuffed bag tore. The food spilled on the driveway and was now inedible. I helped the driver clean up the mess and contacted Tacotastic 2. I spoke to several people, including the owner. I asked them to remake the order and we would wait or pick up. The owners response was "we made the food, not our fault the driver dropped it". Really? Was it my fault? Did I overstuffed the bag? Did I put too much weight in it? Did the driver forget to support the bag? So, the owner never bothered to call me back. Basically sticking me with the bill for food that was dropped on the ground. Really? Taco -Tastic? Never again. There are a lot of Mexican food places around. No longer is this place on my list. You guys lost a good customer. read more

We ordered food for Cinco de Mayo today. We purposely ordered before 5pm fully expecting it to be a long delivery time due to the holiday. The time kept getting pushed back further and further - which, again, we were fine with. Then about two hours from the time we ordered, they cancelled our order. Awesome. read more

Toms River is halfway between our house and NYC so we like to stop here and eat at Tacotastic 2. Food is really really good! We like everything but I especially like the burrito bowls. read more

This isn't a popular opinion but (telling from the other reviews) but I am unimpressed with Taco-tastic. Their ingredients always seem unfresh and spoiled, the longest waits and not really good service. But the Churros are the best thing I ever had so I'll give it 3 Stars. Also to mention, don't comment "If you don't like Taco-tastic then you have no right to be a food reviewer." I'm honestly not a person who likes Mexican food so you can't expect much. read more

Horrible, I ordered Borrila that comes with the three tacos in the dipping soup so I was going to get to go and I decided to eat it there I started eat half a taco. It tasted horrible, had no flavor. It just did not taste fresh at all I complained to the lady they're working at that she goes oh my God and then I see myself wow and then I told the cook in the cook says oh wow so I was like all right you know I was like OK they wanna offer my money back or get it or make something else OK let me get to go so we go OK we got to talk to the owner. We got to tell the owner so you get your money back. I have to win taco so two weeks later I call my phone as I hear you guys never called me back and I go oh we spoke to the owner. The owner doesn't want to refund you or fix the problem saw Michael I want to talk to the owner so I gave him my phone number. The owner calls up a child answers the phone and the owner start screaming at the child, telling him to go F*** himself you ain't getting nothing from us. They just ruined there business now. Now nobody wants to go there. So if you wanna be insulted dirty food this is the place read more

Taco-Tastic - Carne asada( grilled steak) fries, with queso cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gio. - Mexican Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

So delicious!! I've tried my fair share Mexican food and this place is amazing! The staff are so friendly and kind would 100% go back.

I ordered lunch today and said that I would be in to pick it up .the woman answering the phone took my order and my phone number and that was that. However, when I went to pick up my lunch it just so happened that I Called it into Taco Tastic on Main Street and not Fischer blvd . I was told that South toms River location we're dropping it off to them on Fisher and that I should have it within the hour. That's for I apologize profusely for placing my order at the wrong location but it also wasn't happy that by the time I got it it would be cold and not fresh I asked if I could just re-order with them and pay for it immediately. This courtesy was not extended to me and when I tried to ask the girl at the counter how that was OK for me to accept. The woman behind the counter got very angry and said well who is supposed to eat that one in toms River on main street. I said I didn't know but that I also felt this was not a good practice for a restaurant I had every intention of tipping them. The woman would not change her mind and began yelling in Spanish little did she know all music that I was bilingual and was raised speaking both English and Spanish she said I was stupid and I lost it and told her to go to hell what kind of services are those I mean I understand the courtesy of dropping it off but now I have to wait an hour and receive a meal that is cold and which by the way isn't cheap well in the end she refused to make me a fresh bowlAnd I had no choice but to leave. read more
