    Great selection of salsas and dips, great flavor and spice! I enjoyed the steak fajita taco and chicken fajita taco in a bowl. Easy parking and very casual. Friendly staff and food comes out fast.

    Fried avocado taco

    The Brushfire and chicken fajita tacos were good but unfortunately both fried avocado tacos used old avocados instead of ripe and freshly cut.

    If you don't know about Torchy's, it's an Austin concept for quick gourmet tacos. They are soft tacos on corn or flour tortillas, and they have a monthly promotion for a speciality taco. If you don't know, get the Trailer Park taco and get it Trashy...it's the taco they built the chain on! They have even added a Beyond Beef taco for people seeking vegan or vegetarian options. If you are familiar with Torchy's, this is the brand new addition to the Alliance corridor. The margaritas were 3 sips. When I was finished, the glass was completely still full of ice! Need a little more balance for a $10 house margarita, you don't really need to squeeze the profit that bad. The taco's are on point, and the kitchen was very quick, which we appreciated. The queso was yummy, too! The outstanding stars of the restaurant were the cleaning crew. I saw every window cleaned while we were there, and both sets of doors cleaned twice! I'm used to taking my empty plates to the trash, but as soon as I finished, someone was there to clear my table. I know it's new, and they are looking for something to do, but I hope the manager keeps this up!

    Ordered breakfast tacos to go and they were ok. Order was ready and waiting for me at the convenience pick up area. I wasn't a huge fan of the potatoes as they were a bit too fun for my liking. The chorizo was good and had plenty of flavor but the brisket was subpar by Texas standards. I would come back to try other taco options they have outside of breakfast tho.

    Baja Shrimp and Tipsy Chick.

    New location for us so dropped in for lunch today. I ordered the American, the monthly special and the Trailer Park. Both feature fried chicken as the protein and the American adds chopped bacon. Trailer park is superb! Crispy chicken, great fillings, fresh and a great tortilla. Full, but the tortilla never wavered and held together to the end. The American was also fried chicken but added pineapple slaw, Monterey Jack cheese and cilantro with a great chipotle sauce. Very full, a little hard to eat but again the tortilla held to the end. The Wife had the Baja Shrimp and loved it. The only full spot was the Tipsy Chick grilled chicken. She said the bacon marmalade was very hard to eat. I spent 43 seconds at the register and they asked for a tip on the card machine. I never tip when it's asked for electronically. Bathrooms were very clean, serviced, and smelled clean. I like this location and we will be back.

    We were In search of a quick Tex-Mex meal and found this restaurant close to our location based on a Yelp search. After reading the reviews and looking at pictures, we felt it was worth a visit. Being that we were unfamiliar with this establishment, we asked the counter person for some recommendations. She was very gracious and accommodating. She suggested the trailer park as being a popular choice. We decided to have one for each of us. I also had the Baja shrimp while my wife added the fried avocado to her order. We also ordered their chips and salsa and a shot of tequila. Food delivery was quick and looked appetizing. Unfortunately, that was the best of it, neither of us was particularly pleased with the food. The trailer park tacos were overpowered by the cheese which we thought was the reason for the high salt content. After reducing the cheese by one half or more, we found that the cheese was not the only culprit. This carried on through to the other tacos that were also very salty. The heavy-handed saltiness extended to the chips and was almost inedible when combined with the salsa. I ended up having to tap each chip on the tray to reduce the salt so as to partake of the salsa. The salsa was tasty and spicy and would be incredible with some unsalted chips. Overall, the restaurant was clean and well maintained. The staff was pleasant but the food was a touch disappointing.

    Filling Station! Spick-n-span!

I've eaten a lot of tacos in my time. But some bites have a way of humbling you. This one did. I ordered the street tacos with barbacoa. Corn tortillas layered with melted cheese, another tortilla laid gently on top, then crowned with rich, slow-cooked meat. Simple ingredients, intentional hands. The first bite landed heavy -- comforting, soulful, and loud in all the right ways. These tacos slapped harder than Babe Ruth sending one out of the park. And the real kicker? The smile on her face as she watched me take that first bite -- the kind that says, "I told you so," without needing to say a word. She knew she was right. The service matched the food -- warm, polite, unhurried. That small-town kind of kindness where you're treated like you belong, even if it's your first time through the door. No rush, no attitude, just genuine care. Some places feed you. Others stay with you. Taqueria Temo does both. I'll be back.

A slight oversight. No biggie. The chips and salsa were good. Salsa is puréed and tasty. A bit of a kick but not over powering. The chips are on the "thicker" side. Preference for the lighter crispier chips though. I've been wanting to try this place for a long, long time. We literally eat at the Indian rest, Namaste Grill and bar next door and it's the best of the best. When I saw the TikTok reviews I knew I recognized the restaurant and couldn't wait to try it. I inquired about Taco Durangos. And she seemed confused but showed me that they did have "fried crunchy tacos" and directed me to the picture on the front. I asked if I could get one chicken, beef and Pork. She's said NO that they were only available in Beef and Lamb....uggggh. I ordered one with just beef to try it. It's a birria taco...it was good. I like the crispiness of it but normally not a fan of the dipping sauce served with the taco. That was the case here. Not a fan. The little service red sauce also lacked flavor...it was HOT. What's standing out the most is the salsa's, green verde sauce included all lacked flavor. Disappointing. The quesadillas were outstanding! Filling and flavorful. My street tacos were underwhelming. The corn tortillas were gummy and lacked flavor in general. Same with the beans and rice. $43.00

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
