I've been to Talking Tacos at SoDo several times now, and they never disappoint. On my most recent visit, I tried the street corn nachos, and they were absolutely delicious. The portions are generous, and everything is packed with flavor. I've only dined inside once, but the atmosphere definitely stands out. The walls are covered with colorful blacklight artwork, and the music adds to the fun, energetic vibe. It's a great spot whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or hanging out with friends. If you're looking for flavorful food, large portions, and a unique atmosphere, Talking Tacos is worth checking out. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu. read more

This is my favorite Taco spot in Florida. Just found out there is a location in New York. My favorite taco so far is the steak. Love the pineapple on it. Lucky for my waistline I can't eat one everyday. Ordering is easy and service is quick. Your mouth will definitely be watering and waiting for that first delicious bite. read more

Orlando is a place we visit twice a year for various reasons so we always have a running lists of places we want to try. Talkin Tacos was a random choice and not on our original plans but my daughter wanted birria and this was close by. This is a cute little fast casual spot in a shopping center with plenty of parking. Inside is dimly lit with various lighted decorations that fit the aesthetic of the place. It reminds me of a club almost. Ordering is either at a kiosk or with a cashier and they offer a wide variety of options. I wasn't hungry but I try churros at every restaurant they are available so I got an order as well as birria quesadillas rice and a lemonade for me and my daughter to share. They weren't very busy but had a steady flow of customers. Food was constantly coming out and we had food within 10 minutes. Everything looked amazing and the birria quesadillas was packed with meat. The rice was just ok, it's a side I love but this wasn't what I'm used to too. The churros were good. Crispy sweet and chewy. A great finish to the meal. If you're close by and want fast not franchise Mexican, give them a try!! read more

WOW! Taco Tuesday is NOT the place to be at this location! I ordered at the kiosk at 7:24 and was sent a text stating my order would be ready in 25 minutes. 45 minutes later, I'm still sitting here!! The place is way too loud, the crowd is almost out the door and this is not fun. They finally called my order number; however, it must not be completely ready as the server is still looking for it. The reason I hate the kiosk for ordering is it asks you to leave a tip even before you taste the food or can judge the service. Never again for me. I'm returning to Gringos Tacos!! Finally, when I got the text, it also stated it would be faster to place your order by using the app. So you place app customers BEFORE sitting customers?!! Lesson learned! read more

What a great lunch spot. The vibe here is definitely night oriented with loud music blasting and a nice dim ambiance. Food is ordered via a kiosk and is pretty simple.

In short: club atmosphere , great service and good flavors. I came here with a co-worker on a Sunday around 7pm. The place was packed and the only seating was the table tops that face the kitchen. I was very suprised how packed it was. I've been to one of the locations they have in South Florida, Coral Springs to be exact. Similar club vibe with music , neon lights , and dia de los muertos type decor . My friend always orders the crunch stack so I did the same . It was good but I was expecting more of a crunch. Chips and a beef consume come on the side . The beef consume didn't do much for me. Cookies and cream churros were Divine!!! I couldn't stop eating them . Service was great .. shout out to Ryan and Riley who were on top of everything and anything we needed! Nice spot and worth a visit. read more

First time experiencing Taco Tuesday at Talkin' Tacos. I ordered my favorite tacos the Caribbean. I love the combo of steak and plantains always a 10 out of 10! I wasn't expecting the guac and chips to be full sized and was pleasantly surprised. Tatiana was quick and friendly; she had everything out as soon as it was ready. Ryan was very kind and was making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying their meals. This location is very chill and always a great stop after a long day. read more

Recently moved to the Belle isle area and I've been making my way through the different spots. It's clear this place is a chain restaurant. And honestly it was a basic lunch. Not my fav so far. The taco shells were hard? The meat was a little dry and it's impersonal since you walk in and order from a kiosk. read more

I just had my second round of Talkin Tacos--first time in Miami, and now in Orlando via Uber Eats. From the photos, the interior looks like the same recognizable franchise setup, so I'll assume the ambience matches the Miami location. This time I ordered the street corn and the Cali burrito. Both arrived still hot, and the flavors were outstanding. Great texture, balanced seasoning, and everything tasted fresh. They even included nachos on the side, which was a nice touch, and great service. Overall, a fantastic blend of flavors and spices. Talkin Tacos delivers consistency--and deliciousness--across locations. read more

As soon as you walk into Talkin' Tacos, you feel like you have walked into a party. The inside is dark, with colorful lights and beautiful Day of the Dead paintings on the walls. We were greeted right away and once they found out it was our first time, the server explained the menu and showed us how to order at the kiosk. We chose the App Trio to share and then each selected the Taco Trio. I got a Sunrise Lemonade (Mango and Strawberry) while my mom got a Horchata (cinnamon rice drink). There were also other fruity drinks and bottled drinks available. We sat down at a table and before long, our drinks were delivered. We both really liked our drinks, very flavorful. Our App Trio came next. It was over $20 so I was initially concerned about value but each dip was in a very large bowl. It comes with Guacamole, Jalapeño Taki Queso, and Pico de Gallo. All were delicious and the queso wasn't really spicy. There were 3 of us and we couldn't find the appetizer so we packed up more than half to take home. Our tacos were delivered next and all of mine were fantastic and very different tasting. The Steak Al Pastor had the pops of pineapple, the Caribbean Carne Asada had the big bites of plantains and avocado and the Mahi Mahi was perfectly fried. I would definitely come back to try the other tacos or other items on the menu. read more

Ordered late night through UberEats, delivery took a while which left me skeptical. However these tacos were way better than expectation! They arrived still warm thanks to all the of packaging. Ordered a trio to try a few flavors and southwest chicken was the best imo. Tacos were absolutely stuffed and thick tortillas did a great job of holding it all together. Not a single taco ripped! And the pico was fresher than if I made it myself. read more

Ate lunch here today while visiting Orlando and it didn't disappoint! You order at a kiosk, pick a table and they bring it out to you. It's a smaller restaurant but there's still a decent amount of tables and everything was clean. The employees were so friendly and pleasant to interact with. The group got a trio dip as an appetizer with spicy queso, guac and salsa and it was really good! We devoured that as quick as they brought it out, haha. Literally three out of the four of us went with the birria tacos and they were incredible! The shells were crispy and the consommé was flavorful. The meat was so good. I went out a different route and got the cali burrito. I got chicken for my protein and it was so good. I loved it! The flavor was off the charts. We also got some of their lemonades and they were all delicious too! I would definitely visit here often if we lived here. I would recommend to anyone in the area! You gotta try it! read more

There are many great taco spots in Orlando, but Talkin' Tacos' consistently exceptional food quality and service makes it my favorite. Their fun ambiance is just a plus! The Steak Al Pastor tacos are my go-to. The pineapple and pickled red onions compliment the steak so well, resulting in a taco that's bright and savory. I also can't visit without ordering the Birria Tacos. The ratio of cheese and meat is always perfect, and the consome is always hot and flavorful. I find myself craving these dishes quite frequently, and highly recommend you give Talkin Tacos a try if you find yourself in the SoDo area! read more

I've eaten at Talkin' Tacos in Orlando about 4 times now, and every time the food itself has honestly been worth the price. My issue is with the customer service. I recently placed a pickup order for birria tacos, and they forgot the consommé that's supposed to come with it -- which is part of what you're paying for. When I called, they told me I could drive back and pick it up, but the restaurant is already about 15 minutes away from me. I asked if there was any other way they could make it right, like maybe letting me pick up a small gift card another time for the inconvenience, and the employee basically laughed it off and said it was "just a minor issue." To them it may have been minor, but when you pay for something, you expect to receive the full order. A little understanding and customer care would've gone a long way. The food is good, but customer service matters too, and unfortunately this experience makes me not want to continue going to this location. read more

Location is small but a convenient spot. You use a kiosk to order but there was an employee present, delivering food to tables. She acknowledged us and told us to let her know if we needed help or had any questions. Once we sat down it didn't take long for one of our items to hit the table. But the downside is we had to wait another 15 minutes before the rest of the order came out. I understand the food comes out as it's made but I was pretty much finished with my bowl by the time my daughter got her tacos. The food was great. Chicken was well seasoned and the portion on the chicken bowl was good. We will definitely go back. read more

I enjoyed Talking Taco's in DC so I figured I would give Orlando a try and they did not disappoint! The food was amazing, Birria Burrito with takis, WHAT!!! We also had the taco trio (bang bang shrimp, Mahi Mahi, and chicken street). Yummmmm!!! But I also have to give a shout out to the staff. UBER friendly, greeted me at the door, gave advice on what's good and even let me sample the drinks! The restaurant was super clean, and they were on it cleaning tables as soon as people left. Really cool vibe, Awesome job guys! read more

These tacos were amazing!! I got the chicken achiote and I cannot stop thinking about them!!! The flavor in the chicken and the tortilla is top tier!! I was thrown off by the sauce a little because I hate white sauces but it was bearable. I actually had ordered online, so I cannot wait to stop by in person & try! read more

You order food from a computer screen, food was good but way overpriced, they gave you chips with your meal but did not carry salsa. We had to pay for a cup of queso dip $10.00!! It would be a great place if they actually had a salsa bar you could get yourself, if you're paying $18.00 for a burrito at least have salsa!! Also no service, they just bring food to you and leave. Would not recommend unless you like dry tacos and dry borritos, They had their own Topatio hot sauce, tasted like vinager. 1 cup pico de gallo $5.00!! read more

One word... delicious! We went when it just opened so it wasn't busy, service was quick and food was great. The only thing I would have liked was for the queso to be hotter. read more

Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. The staff were very attentive and willing to help if needed! I ordered the birria burrito, birria ramen, elotes, and Cali burritos. Birria meat was on point and the consommé was very hearty. The elote was well seasoned. The Cali burrito was different from what I'm used too I could barely taste or see the avocado salsa but the flavor overall was pretty good The vibe of the restaurant was welcoming and the music was tasteful and fun! I will definitely be back to try more of this enormo read more

Oh man, where do I get started on this review. This place honestly has the best Mexican food I've had in a long time. My fiancé and I had a bit of everything because it was so hard to choose from all the amazing options. 1. Loaded Nachos (with chicken) - they aren't joking about them being loaded! These nachos were HUGE. They forgot to add guacamole and the kitchen staff handed us a FULL side a guacamole for the mishap. Way to make it right!! I would say these reminded me of nachos bel grande from tacobell but a WAY upgraded version that experienced a glow up. 2. Elotè Corn - was expecting a small side for the price but NOPE, this was enough for 2 people to split - easy. Very flavorful. They incorporate taki dust in basically all their dishes 3. Mixed tacos (got 2 shrimp and 1 mahi mahi) - all super great. Reasonably priced. 4. Loaded Queso - honestly best queso we've had. Perfect mix of flavors. Must have if you stop by. At this point, we realized we ordered way too much as the portions were very generous. We kindly asked the kitchen staff to make the rest of the order to go. We ate the next items below for lunch the next day (and were full) 5. Mushrooms tacos (vegan) - super solid. As a former vegetarian, I would feel supported eating these tacos as they don't skip out on flavor with these tacos. 6. Chicken crunch wrap - this was a crazy menu item. It was coated in cheese and taki dust. We ordered a mixed lemonade and it was super solid as well. I found this place on google and went because of the amazing reviews. Needless to say, every time we have tacos I will think of this place. It really really is that good. Understand why they have so many locations & to top that off, their hours are very accommodating. 12/10 recommend this spot read more

We also ordered The Taco Trios, I got shrimp, mahi and birria of course very filling got full with the trio. We also got horchata, it was sweet. I'll keep coming back for more delicious food.

Was able to experience this restaurant through Uber Eats and was not disappointed. Food was very tasty and fresh. My favorite was the Birria Grilled cheese. It was huge and loaded with meat. The shrimp burrito was a close second. It too was really huge and filled with shrimp. The flavor explosion in my mouth was fantastic! The taco trio was my least favorite but it wasn't bad at all. I recommend and would eat from here again. If the food was this good off uber eats I can imagine that going there in person would be even more awesome and fresh. read more

Honest review. Good for what it is. Definitely not worth the $15 for 3 "street" tacos. As a Southern California native and with Mexico being next door from there, street tacos are like the life line of the state. You'll find some of the best.. if not the best tacos there. So I am dubbing myself Miss Taco Connoisseur. Talkin Tacos is the kind of spot that you'd stumble into on a good night after hanging out with friends. The restaurant operates perfectly. In synced. Fast and efficient. Food is subpar. Would I go back? Probably not. Just so happens they're halal and I was craving tacos, so I gave it a try.

I tried their Birria Ramen at the Pembroke Pines location about a month ago. It was outstanding. The flavor on that consommé was incredible and the amount of birria (beef) was very generous. This is one of my to go places when I'm in the area for business. So I fly back home to Orlando , decided to do a local search for a Talkin' Tacos and boom! There is one in the SoDo neighborhood. I went there as soon as I could and got the Birria Tacos. They were delicious stuffed with a ton of birria. The consommé tasted just like the one in Pembroke, so I can truly say that consistency is a serious matter for this chain. That broth was so good that I ordered an extra cup. Their name brand hot sauces are pretty good to! So happy that they are 10 minutes away from my place. Their staff is great and the decor is very nice. Music was a bit loud, but that's okay. This place will be another favorite for me! read more

What a fun spot! It is a small location and you order from a tablet that has photos of all the food which was really nice! There is still someone at the front of the counter to assist if you have any questions. The highlights for me was being able to sample the tacos with the pick 3 trio. I didn't love the marinade on the carne asada( was a little salty) so probably wouldn't get that one again but would come back solely for the bang bang shrimp! Wow was it good! The birria taco was great too so glad I got to try multiple tacos. The quesadilla was also really yummy and we got two cups of the barría sauce. The street corn was delicious! We shared and still had some to bring home so it was definitely a good amount. The food was fresh and very flavorful and I can't wait to go back and try more items! To go seemed very popular as well as a lot of to go orders were going out while we were there. read more
