Trailer Park
Devon G.

Amazing tacos! Started off with the Queso and it was great! The churros came next to out of order we ate dessert next and they were amazing! So so so good! Now onto the tacos when they came out it took a little while but they were fresh and amazing! I loved both of the ones I picked which were the "Democrat" and the "Trailer Park". So good I can't wait to go back and get more!

Nachos
Amber C.

I really enjoyed eating here. I had a grilled shrimp taco and chicken nachos. The taco was really good! My nachos were great as well. The staff were very nice and friendly. The wait time wasn't long either. Although I did think the prices were a bit high for what I consider fast food, I'd definitely eat here again! I dined in and the atmosphere was great.

The Big Tipsy Bowl

I was in town for a conference and decided to give Torchy's Tacos a try. Since it's a chain, I was skeptical, but it was some of the best food I've had in a while. The chicken was crispy and the flavors of the bowl were amazing. The queso dip was perfectly seasoned and spicy. It's pricey but I definitely think you get your money's worth. I liked it so much I considered going back the next day. The reason I deducted a star: my order got forgotten and I waited over 30 minutes. I placed an online order and went in at the given pick up time. Pretty soon, a worker politely asked my name and went to check on my order. She came back and said it would be a few minutes. About 15 minutes passed, and I watched dine-in customers who ordered after me receive their food, as well as multiple take-out customers. Finally, the worker asked me again what my name was, and checked on my order. She said they were still working on it. After 5-10 more minutes, she checked again and brought it out. This whole time, I could see into the kitchen and my order had been sitting on the counter for at least 10 minutes before I got it. It happens, and the workers were friendly - I just would've given them a bump if they'd apologized for the wait or acknowledged it. It is a bit of an awkward set-up for pickup orders, as the only place to wait for your order is basically in the dining room near tables where patrons are eating. I definitely think that's something they could re-evaluate and improve on. Overall, I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area!

I haven't been to Torchy's in a a long time. Since I was here last, they added in kiosks where you place your order yourself. I ordered the grilled baja shrimp taco and the mad cow (off the secret menu). These tacos are loaded down, which I appreciate since they are pricey, $6 - $7 each. I found both flavors to be very tasty and the two tacos to be filling. Overall, if you're wanting the classic taco, this is not the place. But it is a good place to try some unique variations of the classic taco.

Jerk chicken taco

Torchy's is located near multiple other businesses in a shopping plaza. There is indoor and outdoor seating options at the restaurant. The employees that we engaged with were nice. Orders are placed at the counter with the cashier or a kiosk and then brought to your table. It did not take long for our food to be brought out to us. I love their queso. The Baja shrimp taco & jerk chicken taco, are also good. The churros are served warm with a caramel sauce.

Breakfast Burrito and menu
Debbie B.

This is the best authentic Mexican food that I've had in Raleigh. Even better than the larger restaurants. I will definitely recommend it to everyone I know because they will not be disappointed. The service was welcoming and the the whole place is clean and attractive

Rice & beans, chicken fajita taco, brisket taco
Gloria M.

The chicken fajita and brisket tacos were delicious! These tacos are huge, I would have been fine with just 1 since they are overfilled. I ordered from the touchscreen and then the bartender brought them over to my table. All the staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. The bartender was especially polite and gave me a bottle of soda and had such a sweet interaction with one of the kids sitting at the table beside me.

Started off with the Hillbilly queso and it definitely comes with a spicy kick but flavorful and every thing you need from a queso including guacamole. I also love that you can get a half size which is perfect for one person. I was stuck between the Baja shrimp or democrat tacos. The bartender recommended the Democrat, a beef barbacoa, which can be on a corn or flour tortilla. Solid taco, which you should get with all of the toppings for the most authentic flavor. And of course went with a midday watermelon Red Bull margarita, I didn't get much of the watermelon flavor but it did the job. I went around 3pm on a Saturday and it was pretty slow but the staff were friendly and the tacos came out very quickly, within 3-5 minutes of ordering.

Order trackers and placement for outside dining
Jessie C.

LOADED tacos! In fact, for most folks, two tacos are plenty here. We enjoy coming to try the special tacos of the month when we can but every taco on the menu is solid and comes in layers of flavor. The breakfast tacos are also not to be missed. We didn't get it this time but the queso is indeed "damn good" and comes with a few toppings like cilantro, guac, and cotija cheese. This trip, we tried the churros which were excellent because they were freshly made. The service has always been great for us. If you would like to there is an option to use a kiosk to order but you can also always order from a cashier. As someone with food allergies, they allow customizations easily and when you order online, you can select all of your allergies. The place itself is casual but you also get your food brought to you via the food tracker. Bathrooms are clean too which is a plus. Fun Fact: Every Torchy's is unique in design and has its own vibe!

Mad cow
Autumn R.

My family dined in. So nice and modern inside. We ordered the Mr. Orange, grilled Baja shrimp, democrat, mad cow, and grande steak burrito. We enjoyed the food every thing was super tasty. It was pretty empty when we arrived but it took about 25 minutes for or 8 tacos. I have seen people discussing the price personally I just felt like the price is the price. If it's not enough food for the price to you go elsewhere.

Baja Shrimp and the Republican
Nichole C.

Sooooo the tacos are delish! I wasn't expecting them to be that feeling, but I didn't know what I was getting myself into. Haha. Both tacos were really good but I think I could just eat the sausage on its own. Waste of calories with the tortilla lol. The churros were awful. Barely any sugar on them and the inside was just too mushy. Oh well. Stick to the tacos. But I wish they explained the sauces to me more.. because I like sauce buffets hah. I'm a dipper!

The democrat and the naughty Santa taco
Alana H.

Clean eating area, tacos came out super fast. The food was great quality. Would recommend this place.

Alana H.

Nice place.. it's a simple order at the front then take your number to your table and they deliver it to you. The food came fairly quickly.. the portions are a bit small but the food was delicious. As a visitor from Texas e we have many Mexican places to choose from and this place comes close.

It's so unfair that the best Taco Bamba location imo happens to be the one farthest away from me…read more We have friends who came to visit us in the DC region, and fell in love with Taco Bamba when we brought them to the Vienna location. They would then make a point to come visit one of the locations (Springfield, Landmark, Vienna) anytime they were visiting. It was simply meant to be that they happened to relocate to Raleigh where a Taco Bamba location exists, so that now WE get to visit THEIR Bamba. Their Raleigh location specific tacos are truly amazing. The Queen Bee and Sweet Baby Jesus are delicious. It's also nice that this location has a really nice outdoor seating area. There's ample seating both indoor and outdoor, and despite it usually being busy we always manage to find a table.

I ordered a side of guac to go with my chips, 3 shrimp tacos with beans and rice! Just an FYI, everything here is 'a la carte.' I also order the white peach margarita - which was delicious! They also have a sauce bar with medium and hot salsas! They also have a patio for outside dining with corn hole games as well! I will definitely be back - hopefully Teran will be working when I return. SIDE NOTE

I visited Little Rey for the first time recently for lunch with a few friends. It is located in…read moreIron Works, so be mindful of parking. When we went on a Friday at lunch it wasn't initially too crowded but quickly got busy at 12/12:30. You order at the counter. I grabbed chips and salsa, the El Diablo taco and Steak Al Cabron taco, and a soft drink. In total, I think was around $20. As I mentioned, the place got busy quick so it took a little bit to get our food out to us but no worries because we had our chips and drinks to enjoy. I found the tacos to be amazing and hefty. I am torn about paying $6 for a single taco. That being said, I would pay for these $6 tacos again. Definitely a fun little spot to grab lunch with friends. I would encourage you though to give yourself 1.5 - 2 hours in case you come during a busier time like we did.

My new obsession is this restaurant. I always came by the area to have coffee or a sandwich and…read morefinally decided to come in and try the food. I went for a half chicken with the rice, beans, and a side of corn. This also comes with your choice of flour or corn tortillas. I also got 3 tacos- chicken, steak, and shrimp. I had everything with flour tortillas. The total for all- which could've fed 2-3 people, was around $45. The quality of the food was AMAZING. The steak and chicken tacos were sooo juicy and good that I've been wanting to go back just to get it again. If you try any taco, get the steak. There is also a salsa bar, and the first greenish/white sauce (cilantro crema?) was so good on everything so don't forget to grab a cup or 2. I later had the chicken with rice, beans, and corn and was extremely satisfied. I probably won't eat at another chicken spot other than this now. In addition to great food and good service- the restaurant is so pretty and modern inside. It was surprisingly empty and had so much seating inside and outside.
