Yummy tacos and friendly staff. We ordered 7 tacos and all of them were delicious. Lots of flavor, stuffed with meat and toppings, and very filling. Couldn't pick a favorite as they were all so tasty! The guy taking our order at the counter us was great -- he was super friendly and gave recommendations and made sure the tacos were made how we like (I'm not a cilantro fan and after telling him that, he made sure none of my tacos had cilantro on them). We went at 8 pm and it's always a gamble going somewhere this late with how fresh the food is, and I was pleasantly surprised by how great it all was. The inside has lots of tables and seating. We will be back and would recommend this place to others. read more

Food was decent. 1/2 hour wait for four tacos was ridiculous. Staff up or comp or something. Never had that kind of wait at any of the locations. Pretty sad read more

I get to Salt Lake City for work a few times a year and the last time I went, back in June 2025, somebody recommended I try the new Smoked Taco location. As it turned out, it was right across from my hotel. The overall vibe is casual food. Nothing fancy. The staff was pleasant. I got a range of tacos to try and everything was good. Nothing out of this world, but it was overall a good experience and, particularly since it's a short walk from the hotel I stay at when in town, I'll be going back again. read more

The Smoked Taco - Tacos Near Me - Murray, Utah

I have been to several smoked tacos in the area so when I took a friend here who had never been we walked in and the smell of dirty dish towels overwhelmed us so bad we could eat here. I was super disappointed because I had told her the food was good and the service was nice. This new space is bigger than the outside suggests and to my surprise people were still eating here even though the smell was bad. Tacos I recommend are the shrimp and carnitas. Chips and queso were a little too thick for me. Chips were great, get the guacamole. read more

Food was great. I am not a cilantro fan and forgot to ask for no cilantro. It was difficult to scrape off due to the small size of the cilantro. I would definitely come back and next time as to omit the cilantro. The queso sauce was a tad spicy but had great flavor read more

We love The Smoked Taco & have been to other locations so we were excited to try the new location in Murray. This location is big inside . The employees are friendly. We ordered The Fleeing Californian , The Hot Chick & The Memphis . These are all delicious tacos . Order them as they come with all the good stuff on them . They are amazing ! The tacos come with a lot of meat & are very filling . The Hot chick is my favorite . It is a chicken tender with smoked hot honey , biscuit crumble & green onions. We got the chips & salsa . This was really good too . They have Coke products . We can't wait to go back ! read more

I wanted to ensure I got this review out here immediately after eating. I've had The Smoked Taco before as we have catered a few times for work. But since we were in the area I figured I'd take the family. We all not only loved our food but the service was outstanding. I had to ask Jordan what his name was so that I could mention him in this review. Great food. Great service. I highly recommend not only stopping by but definitely for catering professionally as well. read more

Great food, the most friendly service, convivial environment - way better than grabbing fast food for the fam :)

Tried The Smoked Taco and went with two of The Smoking Pastor tacos -- pulled pork with pastor sauce, fresh onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. The flavor was solid, pork had that nice smoky tenderness, and the crispy cheese shell had potential to be fire. Since it was delivery, the cheese lost that crunch I was hoping for, but that's on the travel, not the kitchen. Can't really rate service or ambiance since it was DoorDash, I'd say 3 as delivered, probably a strong 4 fresh in-house. Definitely feels like one I need to try again straight off the grill. read more

The Smoked Taco - THE SMOKING PASTOR pulled pork + pastor sauce + fresh onion + cilantro + fresh lime - Tacos Near Me - Murray, Utah

Another place that was right across from the hotel. I ordered chips and guacamole and the chips are endless. Nice and crispy. The guacamole was nice and fresh. I ordered the Californian (?), I think. Everything about the taco was very good. The counter person was helpful. The restaurant is clean and good amount of indoor seating. They also have some outdoor seating too. read more

The Smoked Taco - Tacos Near Me - Murray, Utah

The front desk person/cooks were friendly and welcoming. Prices were reasonable. The tacos had interesting flavors but were not hot. The smoked pork was especially good. The beef was tough. The quacamole had an acidic flavor, so it didn't taste fresh. The shrimp were tiny and spicy. The serve-yourself drink bar oddly had no garbage can for straw wrappers and other trash. Crappy drink tops, empty hot sauce bottles, and cheap napkins. I doubt we'll return. The Smoked Taco has the potential to be great. C'mon, owners! read more

Smoked Tacos sells street tacos but with more types of toppings then onions and cilantro. Their tacos are more expensive than other Taco shops. My food tasted too sweet. I really didn't like it. The employees were really nice. They don't have salt packets and he put some in a cup for me. read more

Oh boy, I have had my eye on this place for quite a while. My husband and I went for a lunch date and got 4 different kinds of tacos and they were all good. The cheese in between the tortillas- so good. The meat, so good. The service was awesome and the dining areas both in and out were nice! Definitely check it out read more

Got 2 smoking pastor tacos. The name is very deceiving. They were not pastor, they were more like carnitas. They were also drowning in onion! Other than that the tacos were a good size which I was hoping they would be since they're $5 each. 2 were plenty for me. Friendly service and they're pretty quick with prepping your food. Big sitting area and finding parking was easy. read more

Dropped into Smoked Taco on a whim and it did not disappoint! My husband and I ordered four different tacos to try plus the nachos, and everything was fantastic. The flavors were great and it was the perfect way to sample a few things from the menu. Jordan was especially helpful and super friendly, which made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back! read more

Smoked Taco catered a lunch for us for 60 people. The delivery was on time, the delivery person completely setup the buffet for us. And most of all the food was prepared perfectly and everyone enjoyed the meal. Thank you Smoked Taco. read more

I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone close to me only because I'm all about authentic tacos warm shells and warm fresh meat ordered 7 different flavors and only 1 was good 3/10 read more

The food was passable but expensive for what you get. Everything is covered in either a sweet or extremely creamy/fatty sauce. Very little meat for what you pay for and the flavor of the meat is hidden by the mountain of sauce they drench the tacos in. The tortillas were fried and double stuffed with a cheese in between, more eye candy to distract from the lack of flavorful meat on the tacos. Not a fan of how sweet everything was either, after eating a fair amount of different dishes I was left craving some real Mexican, not whatever this is. This felt like dressed up costa vida for almost twice the price. To management, tone down the sweetness and add some more protein. There's good bones here but you're hiding it behind candied jalapeños and fatty creamy sauces. read more

Fast and easy with a great outcome. Food is delicious and pricing is the best part. Can feed 2 for less than $20.00. Unbelievable! A well deserved 5 stars read more

The Smoked Taco - Two taco plate - Tacos Near Me - Murray, Utah

The food was terrible but it wasn't the staffs fault, its the food chain in general. Their "al pastor" tacos aren't actually al pastor. The pork isnt marinated in adobo and it tastes like they use liquid smoke. The tortillas are weird and didnt taste pure corn or flour. The chips were cheap and low quality and the salsa was sub par. The atmosphere is corporate and manufactured. If you want a crappy inauthentic taco then this is the place for you... otherwise steer clear. read more

Smoked Taco did not disappoint. The food was delicious, full of flavor, and cooked perfectly. What really made the experience stand out was the service. Jacob went above and beyond to make sure my order was exactly to my liking. He was attentive, friendly, and genuinely cared about getting everything right. It's rare to find service like that these days. I'll definitely be coming back--great food and great people. read more

The Smoked Taco - The Bird with chips and spicy queso - Tacos Near Me - Murray, Utah

Best Tacos!! Great service. Family friendly. I will definitely be coming back and bringing friends!

The staff was very friendly I have been to this place twice. The first time was decent and I took my son back for the second visit and it was not good. I got what was supposed to be a spicy buffalo chicken taco and it was almost not edible and the corn in the Elote was old. My son did not care for his tacos either. We won't be going back. read more

I came here with a friend from work. They were very busy and the store was a complete mess. We ordered our food and waited quite some time before our food was ready. The tacos were a little sweet which I am not a fan of but they were a great quality. The tacos were a good size and the nachos were a great value. I wish the nachos had a little more meat on them though. I decided to bring my wife the next day. I ordered the tater tots and they were great. These guys do a fantastic job with their sauces. We tried the churro fries which were good. The quesadillas were not very good and I have to admit the chicken tacos are not on the same level as the tacos I got the day before. That being said the second day they were not busy. The store was still a complete mess. The tables need to be cleaned. All in all I thought the non chicken tacos were fantastic but the store has been consistently dirty. read more

Cool place, great tacos, excellent service. We'll be back. Ask how to get the free drink.

The food was such a wonderful surprise. Taco's are pretty much the same everywhere but these with the diversity of flavors, are spectacular. They are so good, I insisted that we have them again so that my husband could experience them too! I plan to return often even though we don't live close and I have already highly recommended them to friends. What a wonderful taste experience. read more

This place was great! Would definitely recommend. Had the OG taco and it was off the wall! Jacob was such a great representation of the company. Amazing customer service. read more

Great food! Was just passing through Murray and stopped for dinner. Food was great and service was impeccable.

I was visiting SLC for a couple days of skiing. I saw The Smoked Taco and never heard of it but sounded good. I could not have been more correct. I told Aurora (who greeted me) I was a total newbie. She explained the menu and all the meats and even had a few recs. I went with "The Gringo" and it was absolutely awesome! Thanks Aurora for the rec and hospitality! read more

Interesting twist on tacos and the meat. Just could not taste what meat I had ordered. And expensive per taco. $5-$8 per. If it wasn't drowning in cheese sauce maybe could taste the meat flavoring. Had smoked meat nachos too. Large platter (Tray sized). But again swimming in cheese and sauce. Could not grab hold of a soggy chip so didn't finish. Any cheese and sauce needs to be served on side or at a condiment buffet. $30 lunch repeat will have to wait as I save up my lunch money. read more

It felt like there was a bunch of kids working there who didn't really care about the customers, so the ambiance is not the best. The tacos weren't great either, the chicken in the bahn mi taco was very dry. Probably won't be going back. read more
