    The staff was friendly and the food was great. Ordered Birria tacos and steak chimichanga.

    Tacos were good was not a fan of the chicken tacos but the kids liked them. Service was amazing. The guys were great. Space was very clean and they share a space with the brewery next-door. I would definitely go back again to try something different. I do recommend given this place a shot. I've seen it multiple times I've driven past it always how it was. And finally decided to go and check it out with my kids and my kids love tacos so it was a hit with them.

    We came to eat on Labor Day evening and we were so pleased to find them open and not busy. The gentleman at the front seemed less than enthused when he greeted us but he was a bit friendlier when we asked him for recommendations since it was our first time. We went with the special which was three tacos with choice of meat. The chicken was dry but the beef and pork were tasty. The taco salad was hearty and the flavorful and the shell was fresh and crispy. The quesadilla was good and hearty. All in all, we enjoyed the food and the ambiance of the combined real estate with the brewery next door. We are not beer drinkers but it's cool that you can order at Wako Taco and have your food brought to you next door at the connected brewery. I would be interested to come back and give it another shot.

    I have been here twice, and both times the service has been friendly and the tacos good. I tried the Queso Birria tacos and The Mahi Fish tacos. They both were very flavorful and the sauces were excellent as well. Right next to Hourglass Brewery, and they will bring your food to you there as well. I would like to try a few more things, and I will be back.

    Came at 8:00pm on a Saturday. Saw they had a vegan option so husband and I ordered that for tacos: 3 for $9. Positives: Wako Taco is connected to Hourglass Brewing so after you order, you take your order # stand with you to Hourglass. The Food Runner will bring out your order. Nice touch. When the tacos arrived, I saw they were half filled: the bottom basically had a dollop of refried beans, some shredded lettuce and heaping spoonful of pico. When I took a bite, it was all cold... The whole bottom of my tacos were soggy from too much pico. :/ I wonder if anyone else has tried their veggie options. Let me know! Maybe it was a busy night.

    Really delicious quesadilla and love their avocado sauce! This location is open/connected to Hourglass Brewing next door. Hourglass doesn't serve food, so the Wako Taco staff will walk your food over into the pub, or you can bring a beer into Wako, it's a symbiotic relationship going on here with beer and tacos. So back to the quesadilla, it had ground beef, lots of chewy, melty cheese, and I asked for extra jalapeños. It was so good! Their taco sauces were smokey and delicious too. The avocado sauce is a blend of avocado and heavy dose of cilantro. To the person that complained in another yelp review about their "guacamole", this avocado sauce is not guacamole at all, it's a flavor packed avocado concoction, so the color is a bit darker and the flavor is intense. Tried the Namesake Wako Taco too, it was pretty spicy (and I already like it hot), so tread with caution on this item's spice level. The Wako Taco was good, but that quesadilla did it for me. The service can get jammed up a bit, but the people working were hustling to keep up with the demand. Had a nice experience and would come again.

    Stopped here for a quick bite before walking into hourglass brewing. Great fast food burrito!! This will fill you up!!!

    Fish Tacos
    Jonathan L.

    Very nice staff to serve. Fast and easy service! Everything is cooked fresh and the kitchen is small so you can see it being done. The menu is small but perfect if you know what you want. The pork taco was $3 with the works. They found the perfect amount of ingredients to put on the taco. I also ordered the fish taco which was mahi mahi. It came with red cabbage Cole slaw and orange slices on top. They gave us small sauces, one sweet and one spicy. The sweet one was cold and the spicy one was warm. Perfect combo to try out on the fish taco. Definitely worth a visit back! And it helps that it's attached to Hourglass Brewery!

    The Asada, Al pastor and Barbacoa tacos
    A K.

    The Asada, Al pastor and Barbacoa tacos in the homemade yellow corn tortillas were beyond delicious and the green hot sauce was my favorite salsa I've ever had, I literally had to get some to go. It almost had a spicy curry flavor to it. The Al pastor had so much flavor and was exactly what I needed. The asada was my favorite though even though they were all great and I can't wait to come back again!

    Chicken tacos
    Eliza J.

    Mexican-owned. A blend of authentic and modern/trendy. They make the hot sauces themselves and they are all good! Especially the habanero...yum. The fish taco is decent, the mahi was cooked well! Wish it had a little more toppings on it but I do like that their slaw it chopped finely. Not a huge fan of big cabbage pieces. The chicken tacos were fresh. And though not superrrr flavorful, I don't really mind because I know a bunch of salt isn't being thrown into it. Top it off with their homemade hot sauce and you're good. Nice people, too! Good service.

    4 stars for some pretty tasty food connected to one of my favorite breweries, Hourglass Brewery! I've been meaning to try this place every time we come to Hourglass. I'm a little picky with Mexican but this place didn't disappoint. Our food came out super fast after ordering at the counter. We were planning on sharing a burrito but the photos looked so good for the chimichanga on Yelp so I had to give it a go. I sometimes think chimichangas can be a little greasy since its fried but this was made so well. It was crispy fried goodness without the oil feel. We chose the pulled pork, it was really tender and had a nice bbq flavor to it. All the menu items do not come with chips but you can have a side order of blue tortilla chips for $2, or even better $3 for chips and a dip. I ordered the queso based on recommendation, it was a nice creamy cheese goodness with a good kick of spice. Definitely try the free homemade hot sauce at the counter, there's a mind and hot. I really liked the hot sauce, it didn't seem to spicy at first but it has a after kick, loving it! Great place to check out if you're drinking craft beer at Hourglass, prompt service and all around good Mexican, I was quite impressed by our first visit!

    Steak Chimichanga
    David M.

    Everything was tasty. Shrimp tacos - had to dig in to uncover the shrimp; steak chimichanga - loaded with rice, beans, veggies and chunks of steak; vegetarian wako taco. My favorite was the wako taco - reminded me of chiles rellenos

    Burrito

    A wonderful spot. We got the burrito and taco salad. The service was fast and the food was hot and fresh. Attached to a brewery with arcade machines. The portions were BIG. More than enough for two people. It tasted amazing and came with complimentary hot sauces.

We were greeted right upon entry and there was plenty of seating around. They have a diverse menu with plenty of options for people who both enjoy spicy food and non-spicy food. They also have a full bar if you would like a drink. The overall ambience is very cantina like. They have wooden chairs wooden tables and a bar at the center. They do have some very colorful decor around as well. Staff was friendly throughout. I opted for the burrito and it was ginormous and I definitely couldn't finish all of it. Definitely well worth the price point for the amount of food that you're given. Everybody was very happy with their meals and drinks and I'll definitely be returning to this location.

It is always busy after work because the place is that good. On our recent visit we ordered a beef dip to have with the chips and salsa. They also have a tasty guacamole on the menu. For drinks we've gotten the pitcher of margaritas our last two visits and it really is the perfect amount for 2 or 3 people. Each person gets at least 2 glasses full which is a great value for the price. Things we like: Pastor Tacos, Nortenos Tacos, Tacos Gringos, queso dip, and the rice and beans with the main dish. Service is always wonderful, the staff is attentive and helpful if you want recommendations. If the dining room looks full, try sitting at the bar and you'll be right at home.

My husband gets the mango agua fresca. Just know that if you order size large of anything, it's basically the size of a pitcher, haha. For food, we always share the mixed molcajete which is a giant sizzling stone bowl full of chicken, steak, shrimp, pork, with grilled peppers, tomatoes, onions, and queso fresco. It's also served with rice, beans, guac, lettuce, and tortillas on the side. Ask for their homemade hot sauces if you like more spice (yes, they are HOT). It's plenty of food to share with lots of leftovers to take home. Well worth the $35 since we get multiple meals out of it. We usually get my son a quesadilla, but he's starting to try more of the foods we eat. He loved the chicken! Fiesta Cancún is a vibe -- highly recommend.
