    Mr. Blonde with Queso & Chips (VE)
    Lauren R.

    J&J were landing at RDU and headed to Greenville, so we met at our favorite place for tacos! Mr. Blonde is the May special and it's fantastic!! The salmon is perfectly blackened and the flavor combo is perfection! I'd love to see this as a permanent menu option! We love the quick service, especially as they needed to get back on the road! Plenty of outdoor seating, love the patio! We'll be back soon!

    Nachos

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

I remember it being really different before they remodeled. The inside is so nice now. Big and open. They have great line management--you order and pay for your food and then they bring it out to you. All of the food tastes authentic and comes out so fast. This place is great for groups as they have a ton of big open seating and they turnover the place really fast. You get your own drinks and bus your own table.

When you arrive, there is plenty of parking around the building, and entrances in the front and on the right side. Once inside, you'll walk up to counter and place your order. Your then given a order number and it's open seating. Your number will be called out in Spanish when your food is ready and you'll pick it up at the counter. I ordered an al pastor taco which unfortunately was not good. It came out extremely cold and needed a lot of salsa for it to have any flavor. I also ordered a steak burrito which was much better and was served with melted cheese on the top. There were fatty pieces throughout the burrito but this was far better than the taco. Lastly, I ordered a horchata but it tasted like grainy and wasn't great. If I'm in the area again I may give this a try but I'd definitely stick with a burrito so your food is hot.
