I keep telling myself I'm not a "regular" anywhere--but Torchy's Tacos continues to prove me wrong. This visit was exceptional from start to finish. Tori and Iesha were nothing short of angelic--gracious, intuitive, and effortlessly attentive in a way that feels almost rare these days. They anticipated needs before we even had to ask and carried themselves with a warmth and ease that made the whole experience feel genuinely special. Service like that doesn't just support a meal--it elevates it. Food-wise, Torchy's just doesn't miss. I had the Baja shrimp taco and the steak fajita taco--both were outstanding. The shrimp was perfectly cooked with just the right balance of crisp and flavor, and the steak fajita taco delivered that bold, satisfying punch you expect but rarely get this consistently. My girlfriend went with the green chili pork taco, and it was just as impressive--rich, savory, and perfectly executed. What really sets this place apart for us is consistency with dietary needs. My girlfriend can't have gluten, and they always get it right--no confusion, no mistakes, just confidence and care every single time. That level of reliability is rare and deeply appreciated. Every bite felt intentional. Every detail felt dialed in. I don't say this lightly--Torchy's is one of the very few places that keeps pulling me back. And after this visit, I'm not even pretending to resist anymore. read more

Delicious Mexican food with thick, fresh tortillas. I got a breakfast burrito and was so happy with the generous fillings which were perfectly layered, especially the beans, which I usually don't get with a breakfast burrito but were phenomenal! My only small issue was that I had rewrap the burrito as it wasn't fully wrapped but this was minor and didn't change how good the taste was! After hearing about torchys a ton from friends who loved their texas chain, I'm glad I had a chance to try it! Ordering at kiosks is easy and they are relatively quick with your order. read more

Torchy's has been a long time favorite and ever since i moved away from Denver, i haven't had it. I was SO HAPPY to see that they had expanded to nashville! All my favorites still apply!! i'm so excited!! and johnny queso was super sweet and helpful!! great job, torchy's nashville!! keep it up!!! read more

Had three different tacos. Trailer park trashy style, chicken fajita no tomatillo, and grilled Baja shrimp but plain. The trailer park trashy was the best one. The fried chicken cooked well, and the sauce added a depth of flavor. It was also very filling. Chicken fajita was okay. Good flavor. Lastly, the shrimp taco needed the other toppings because the shrimp didn't have much flavor by itself. The corn tortilla did hold up really well though, which was a plus. Would go back for the trailer park taco any day. read more

I was looking for tacos since I was in the area and this place was the closest and got 4.5 stars . It's a cool joint with a small bar on the right and a little kiosk screen in the front . They have a wide variety of tacos and other dishes . Most are around 5.40 each . I got the trailer park and chicken fajita . Both were a good size and two were good for me , tho I could have eaten another one . Trailer park was supposed to be flame scale of 3 but wasn't very hot TBO. Even tho it had a hot sauce on top .Was still very good and the chicken fajita had fried chicken with various toppings . Lettuce tomato fried onions and other veggies . The server was nice to explain the menu and match wha I liked . Parking is in the back but it's a pay lot . Looks like a good joint to hang and eat tacos . I'd come back when in the area and a new taco joint for me! read more

We went on Cinco de Mayo so it was super busy. After waiting in line for 15 minutes we placed our orders for food and drinks. The drinks were pretty good, the frozen passionfruit marg was the best and the paloma was good as well. My issue was the food took an hour to come out, for a total of 6 tacos. But they tasted really good and had tons of flavor. read more

Went first thing in the morning and got the steak breakfast taco, tipsy chick and the Mr Orange salmon taco. Couldn't be happier with them, so delicious.

Torchy's is pretty decent! I got their Big Tipsy bowl and thought it was good. Definitely heard good things about this place and I thought it was a good place for a quick bite to eat. The menu had some unique taco flavors so I'd definitely like to try those next time. Service was quick and efficient. Didn't have to wait long for the food to come out.

Absolutely love the trio dipper! Haven't had a taco I didn't love. Brushfire was wonderfully spicy and had chicken thighs which are 100% better than white meat. Wife goes Trailer Park Trashy. Churros and caramel sauce are a great way to finish. We drive almost 30 minutes to go there at least monthly. read more

Torchy's Tacos - Trailer Park Trashy, Brushfire, The Threesome - Tacos Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Having lived in Texas for several years, I was absolutely ecstatic to hear that Torchy's was coming to Nashville! These were my go-to tacos in college, and a visit to this new location in Midtown was just the nostalgia my tastebuds needed. My husband and I stopped in for an early lunch around 11 a.m. This is a high foot-traffic area, but we still managed to find some cheap street parking a short walk away. The restaurant has fun new decor inside, and a colorful mural on the outside of the building. I was hoping they'd have patio seating, but they still managed to make the most of their space with some large, open window cut-outs. I ordered two of my favorites - the Fried Avocado and the Democrat. My husband went with the Trailer Park and the Brushfire. For some reason, these tacos seemed bigger than I remembered? Either way, everything was delicious, and we paired our tacos with some chips and guac and a house margarita. The service was some of the best I've seen at any Torchy's! We had team members check in on us multiple times while eating - which is rare to find at a counter-service restaurant. I can't wait to chow down on even more damn good tacos soon! read more

You do order at the counter unless you sit at the bar you can order with the bartender ! T took great care of me !! T knows their stuff and is so nice and attentive! It's a cool space very laid back great to come watch the game and hang with friends. read more

Been here so many times, always end up eating the food before I can get any pictures because it ALWAYS hits. Service is always great but would recommend eating in the restaurant as take out can be hit or miss. Will try to visit this spot in any city that has it! read more

The place itself is wonderful. Food good. Drinks great. Happy hour THE BEST!!!! But what stands out is the bartender Aman... He is the type of worker that 100% of owners should pray to have for their businesses. Such a nice guy. Attentive, kind, helpful and recommended the best of everything. I really am the type that goes places for the people and I would come here multiple times a week if lived in town. Place is a 10/10 and Aman is a 1000/10.... read more

Welcome to Nashville Torchy's! Great addition to the Nashville food scene! Parking isn't great but the area in general has limited parking or paid parking. Queso is still the best! read more

So I finally ate at Torchy's Tacos, which, if you haven't heard, is from Austin, Texas -- land of breakfast tacos, live music, and people who say "keep it weird" while charging you $18 for a margarita. Everyone talks about Torchy's like it's a taco cathedral. "Life-changing," they said. "Authentic," they said. What they didn't say is that it might also be a social experiment in how little meat a human will tolerate before snapping. Let's start with the chicken fajita taco. Beautiful presentation, sure -- like a salad bar exploded in a tortilla. But it was 90% toppings and 10% chicken, and I'm rounding up out of pity. Then came The Democrat, which was so greasy I considered reporting it to the EPA. I made it halfway through before my arteries staged a coup. The margarita was delicious -- crisp, limey, refreshing -- in the same way that a snow cone is refreshing. Because it was 90% ice. If the glass were any smaller, it would qualify as a shot. Now, credit where it's due: I ordered a half order of chips and salsa, and it was excellent. Fresh, flavorful, and crunchy enough to make you forget the taco disappointment -- briefly. And huge thumbs-up to any place that lets you get a half order of anything. I suspect you can even do the same with queso, which is basically like saying, "Hey, we trust you to manage your own cheese intake." That's freedom, right there. But overall? Not worth it. The tacos are skimpy, the Democrat's still drilling for oil, and the place was not exactly the kind of clean where you'd want to drop a napkin and pick it back up. Between Velvet Taco and Little Rey's, Torchy's feels like the overpriced middle child of taco culture -- trying hard but not invited to the cool parties. Pro tip: Order the chips. Bring your own protein. read more

Torchy's Tacos always hits the spot! The queso is amazing as usual -- rich, creamy, and addictive. I got the Fried Avocado Taco and the FoSho Taco, and both were super filling. They definitely don't skimp on the ingredients! Great flavors, generous portions, and a consistently satisfying meal every time. read more

I had high hopes for Torchy's Tacos after hearing so many good things, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype. I tried the "Hogfather" and the "Steak Fajita," and both were lacking in flavor and overall underwhelming. While I probably won't be back, I do think the concept of unique tacos is a great idea--it just didn't deliver for me. read more

When visiting Nashville, tacos wasn't the first thing on my mind when it comes to eats but lo and behold, Torchy's Tacos blew me away with their delicious take on tacos with a Nashville twist. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted and asked for my order of drinks first. This was ideal since it helped me peruse through the menu while sipping on a cocktail. I tried the chips and cheese dip, chicken burrito bowl, carnitas taco and a shrimp taco. All this was so delicious and flavorful. The cheese dip consistency was served warm and smooth with that buttery consistency. The tacos were stuffed to the brim and bursting with flavor. So filling and delectable. Same goes for the chicken bowl. The chicken was seasoned so scrumptious and paired with all the other rice, beans, cheese etc, it was a very enjoyable dish. read more

I love Torchy's! I've been to a bunch in TX, first time here. Tacos are always great, and I enjoy the variety. Always appreciate the military promo of free queso and chips! Tolo was very helpful when I forgot to scan my rewards app. He found my receipt in the system, printed out, and showed me how to get my points still. Thanks Tolo! read more

This place has a fun and unique take on tacos with lots of different flavor combos and unique ingredients. I really enjoyed my custom burrito and their salsa was super good. Our order also included six tacos, but when we opened the bag after getting back, there were only five:( The attention to detail could use some work, but all food we had was great and I'd definitely give them another shot. read more

I ordered for pick up one night as I heard the place was new in the area and I wasn't a fan of Velvet tacos. So I decided to try it and I'm so glad I did. Torchy's has many unique taco options available and they all taste good. Even the chips and queso was delicious. I recommend the democrat and the republican tacos along with the hillbilly queso and chips. My only issue is that the wait time was very long for pick up. I was notified in app that my food was probably ready and I had to wait another 10-15 minutes after I got there. I think once that is all set, this place is bound to succeed! read more

1. The drinks were DELICIOUS. 2. The food was DELICIOUS, HOT and FAST 3. Our bartender, Pattie, was the actual best. She listened to our plights of the week and was so personable, friendly, and did I mention the drink she made was the best? 10/10- will be back. read more

I was so excited to try Torchys. It went downhill with first impressions when I called to ask about parking- the first call answer was clearly annoyed when she answered the phone from the start and when I asked if their location had parking she immediately hung up. The second call went to an off property order taker who then blind transferee me to the store. When I did arrive the parking lot was full which would not have really mattered as they validate for 45 minutes which is very little time when you have to wait in line to order then have a longer wait for your food- this is clearly a trick to get more parking revenue The taco was decent but $6 dollar price point is questionable especially when even the chips and salsa are also spendy. I had some free taco vouchers from a grand opening marketing event but overall don't see how with poor parking and staff who hang up on guests this place has a chance. read more

Great menu options. Especially like that breakfast options are available all day. Tortillas here are soo fresh, fluffy and good. Breakfast tacos are on point! The wrangler breakfast taco was my favorite. All meats were moist, tender and flavorful delicious. The service cashiers were friendly and staff were efficient. Live music guitarist was also fun. read more

As former Texans, we were thrilled to hear that Nashville was getting its very own Torchy's. We got all our favorites this last time heading into the midtown location, including The Democrat (beef barbacoa), Fried Avocado, and the Hogfather. We opted for the queso tater-tots this time around as an appetizer, and I think this was a mistake: you get much more queso in their original with the option of unlimited chips. The queso coverage was not great for the tots. Management is brand new as is the store, so everything was sparkly and fresh. They are so family friendly, and we were about the fifth young family in there with a high chair for lunch time alone. And yet, the store was still so clean! Staff is so on top of things. We got served within minutes of ordering at the front, and everyone was perfectly friendly. Parking can be a bit difficult in this area, so I recommend parking a bit farther on the free streets near 19th and walking (or just prepare to shell out a little bit for parking). Highly recommend! read more

Came here for dinner on a Saturday! Very short line and plenty of indoor seating. We ordered a frozen passion fruit house drink, a variety of tacos (beef, pork, grilled shrimp, fried chicken), and the queso and chips. The queso was pretty good, though small in portion size. The tacos tasted more like a bunch of separate ingredients rather than a fusion of flavors. I think there are a lot of better taco options in Nashville (especially the Nolensville area) for a better price than Torchy's! read more

I was there opening day. It was crowded, but the food is definitely worth the wait! The employees were all working hard, making sure that everybody was happy. My favorite was the Damn Good Tots! They are tater tots with queso and bacon. How can you go wrong? I could eat those all day long. I also had the steak fajita, which was very good. I cannot wait to go to the Orlando location! read more

We had the chance to try the new Nashville Torchy's this evening. I fell in love with Torchy's on a recent trip to Texas, and I was so excited to hear they were coming to Nashville. They were quite busy on a Saturday evening, but the line to place your order moved reasonably fast. We tried the Trailer Park, Baja Shrimp, and Republican tacos, as well as the salsa, guacamole, and Torchy's famous queso. I love the guacamole and green chilis in the queso, and it's great that they are happy to supply you with fresh chips when you're ready for a refill. Everything was a hit! We are looking forward to many return trips to Nashville's Torchy's, and I'm sure Torchy's will earn many new fans in this area. read more

This new Torchys is a very welcome addition to Midtown Nashville!! I had never tried a Torchys before and was very excited to attend the soft opening. They LOADED up the tacos, the meats were flavorful and toppings plentiful. The chips were super hot and fresh and the dips were all delish. Service was phenomenal, shoutout Miguel for refilling our chips without us even asking! The dining room has a really cool vibe and a unique aesthetic, it could get a little loud but that's a given considering how many people will be rushing to try this food! read more

Stopped in during the week for dinner. The menu seems a bit intense at first if you're not a fan of spicy food; however, the staff can help you with making a good choice to minimize that. We ordered the "Tipsy" bowl and it was great; definitely enough for 2 meals! The Mexican Candy margarita was fantastic, a little bit of a kick to it. Fun and upbeat environment with very friendly and helpful staff. Will go back! read more

I've been to Torchy's a thousand times over in Texas prior to moving to Nashville, and my first time in on the opening date reminded me so much of home, and made my heart and stomach smile because the food tastes exactly the same! I brought 2 of my friends with me to have them try it for the first time and they loved it as well! The portions are pretty big for a taco, which is helpful because the cost/taco is a touch on the higher end. We got the brushfire, trailer park trashy, and chicken fajita, 2 full orders of the green chile queso, and 2 margaritas- one wild berry strawberry swirl, and one passion fruit wild berry swirl. The drinks were a decent size, and it being happy hour was extremely helpful! The jerk chicken on the brushfire tacos was flavorful, and the diablo sauce definitely kicks up the heat (use sparingly!!). I advise you mix the queso up with a chip and go crazy from there, it's some of the best queso I've ever had. There's a touch of spice from the diablo sauce, creaminess from the Guac, and texture from the Chile's and cojita cheese. Literally a chefs kiss. I'd also suggest you sign up for the rewards program to earn free tacos! The staff was friendly and able to give suggestions based on your palate. Def recommend coming here for your taco desires! read more

Worst service experienced in a long time. Bartender hangs out in the back instead of at the bar. Watched customers come in and leave because she wasn't here. When she is here, she's constantly running her fingers through her hair or has them in her pants.. the one refill I got, was the wrong drink. This kid isn't done being raised and has no business running the bar. Whoever hired her definitely done it because they thought she was attractive. Still waiting to ask for a check. A lot of people would've already left without paying because she's nowhere to be found. Food was pretty good. I'll never return due to horrible service. On a Monday at 4:00. Not a weekend read more

I was greeted immediately upon walking in a very open and roomy restaurant. I ordered at the counter took my drink and locator. I ate a half order of queso with chips and a democrat taco. All the food was first rate. I was checked on by staff twice during the meal and my table was cleaned before I left. The regional owner stopped by and visited which was a nice treat. I highly recommend a visit! read more
