    Joni T.

    We highly recommend this place. Stopped in for the first time because we were visiting Jacksonville Beach area. Had amazing Tacos! The chips and salsa were really good and the queso!! We sat in the bar area and our waiter was Henry...he was THE BEST!!! If you are in the area this is the place to go!

    One of my favorite places ever in jax! The food is always amazing and it's so crave able. I love the vibes with all the tequila bottles as decoration. We showed up at 7 and it was pretty busy but we got lucky and scored seats at the bar. All the bartenders gave us great quick service. If you haven't been, you need to.

    Carnitas taco

    Delicious tacos that veer just enough off the traditional path to be interesting without getting crazy. Built on flavor, not trends. The rest of the menu is stellar, too, including a fun variety of tequila based cocktails. The young, friendly service staff know the menu and make sure you've always got what you need. Decor is colorful, rustic and makes every meal feel like an event. Look for the milagro charms embedded in the tabletops. Valet parking only, but it's fast and efficient - and free.

    Lunch date!!

    TacoLu is definitely a must try spot, even just to say you've been. My nachos were HUGE and absolutely bursting with flavor. The tacos were à la carte but decent in size. The chips, salsa and guacamole were pretty tasty as well. Of course, the drinks are always what get me in a review. They were nice and tasty with a big punch. Our server was fantastic. Very sweet and very knowledgeable. I thought it was hilarious they brought my 9 month old a kids menu and crayons lol. I enjoyed that they offer indoor and outdoor seating options. Indoor was nice and cool and the outdoor seating was shaded. The overall ambiance was nice.

    Probably the best tacos in jax Consistency very very good and reasonable process. $2.50 draft Dos Equis happy hour was nice. This place rivals any spot in jax and the bar area has great energy and every cool bartender in jax seems to have rolled through this place at some point.

    Amazing! They told us it would be a 45 minute wait, but turned out to be a 5 minute wait! The food is delicious and never disappoints. Very decorative and fun inside with butterflies on the walls, skeletons, big stars, and art! Everyone is very attentive and definitely a most recommended for all! (Also make sure to get the Guacamole if your a Guacamole fan)

    Jalapeño margarita
    K R.

    We sat at the bar and had a drink. The jalapeño margarita was excellent!! Very well made and you couldn't even taste the liquor! We also had a mojito which was made from scratch with fresh ingredients. The restaurant is huge, full of vibrant decor, lots of happy gratuitous staff. We had already had dinner otherwise we would have been debating on which meal to get!

    This is my go to Mexican/seafood/cocktails and Keylime pie! I always start with the Mexican corn nachos which are out of this world! The place is always hopping and it's obvious why. The large menu with so many selections makes it so hard to pick. The $10 taco is made with tenderloin beef but I always opt for that with scallops, mahi-mahi and shrimp tacos. The cocktails are crafted with care and the right amount of alcohol. I only need one! Staff is super helpful and friendly and they always leave wanting more

    Bangin' Shrimp Taco, Mexican Street Corn
    Eddy N.

    The Bangin' Shrimp Taco, Bangin' Dilla quesadilla, and Mexican Street Corn all hit the spot with crave-worthy flavor. Service is always friendly and reliable. The dining area is compact but fits the theme. Final take: A reliable favorite for creative tacos and big flavor. Definitely worth repeat visits.

    Pork carnitas taco with pineapple salsa and Salmon taco
    Laura A.

    It's been a while since I have dined here, but was out to dinner here with my daughter, one of her favorite places since college. I never understood why they had valet service, and we always just opt to park ourselves in the connected strip mall lot and walk over. We were able to be seated immediately which was great for dinner on a Saturday. The inside tables for two are really close together and a bit cramped, making it feel a bit awkward with the people on either side of you. I was not a fan of their salsa that came with chips, it had a strong floral flavor, I'm guessing from too much cilantro, but I couldn't eat it. Luckily, we had ordered nachos and used some chips with that. My tacos were delicious, the wilted spinach on the perfectly cooked salmon taco was yummy and I loved the pineapple salsa on my pork taco. Overall, enjoyed our meal.

    Rice - Cheeseburger taco- Deb's Verde chicken taco
    Rich G.

    Lunch today - was up in JAX Beach area found TacoLu. Yep free valet parking was easy. Walked in and seated right away. Waiter (Tristan) was very helpful reviewing the menu and made suggestions. I had the Debs Verde a chicken taco the chicken was excellent. Also had Cheeseburger taco yep think of a cheeseburger on a flour tortilla. For a side rice. Wife had a Carnitas taco and a Carne Asada taco with a side salad. Everything was delicious and service was great.

    Brunch drinks
    Katie B.

    We always love Tacolu! Hadn't been for brunch in a while so we had to go for my husband's birthday! We had an assortment of their breakfast tacos- the Don patrol taco, the magic juan taco, BECheeseburger taco, and egg & tots tacos for the kids. The brunch tacos are full of flavor and very creative. They are great size and have plenty of filling. We also enjoyed mimosas and bloody Maria's (with tequila instead of vodka). Service was pretty good- our server was busy with most of the bar area seating but mostly on top of it
