Taco Boy

Came here at the end of their happy hour on a Thursday night to celebrate a friend's birthday. Parking was easy to find on the street after I circled once. I found out they do validate if you park in the garage too. Service was speedy and the server did a great job of getting our order in before happy hour was up (the button disappears and you can't order after 6pm). I ordered the firecracker and americano tacos on soft corn shells. I wish I would have done a hard shell for the americano because the soft taco just didn't do it for me. The star was the firecracker shrimp taco on the soft corn shells. Great flavor and almost made me want another one! We also got margaritas and chips and queso and salsa for the table. It was perfect to share 2 things of each for all 7 of us. The seating and inside was intimate enough and open enough to see the tvs and the rest of the room without feeling like you were on top of the table next to you. Definitely will be back to try more!

Quesabirria (4/5): Good birria flavor with a perfect amount of cinnamon. The meat was tender and the tortilla had the perfect amount of crispiness. Trio of Salsas (4/5): Good chips. Salsa roja was my favorite, but would've been even better if it was spicy. Creamy avocado and Verde were good as well. I liked the black pepper flavor in the Verde. *Service was pretty slow when I went on a Sunday afternoonRATING SYSTEM5 - Great (Need to get this again)4 - Good (Would get this again)3 - Ok (Might give this another shot)2 - Not Good (Won't get this again)1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

Server was very nice. I sat and ate guacamole and chips for a while, the birria burrito was delicious! Tacos are great as well, liked the pork the least.

I've been here several times before writing this review so here it goes: The food is really good, tacos, burritos, quesadillas...it's been consistent with no complaints. The drinks ..eh. I've sent drinks back because one tasted like juice...no alcohol was detected. Another time, the glass was barely filled and again it didn't taste like alcohol was present. I had no issues with getting my drink corrected. Staff is pleasant and friendly. Ambiance is great especially at night on a nice evening. There's outdoor seating with plenty of space so everyone is not bunched together.

Nice spot in LoSo! Definitely a vibe in the evening!Food is okay but very clean and service is pretty good. More of a mainstream flavor vs authentic Mexican. Would be a nice go to for a lunch or night out to catch up with friends, have drinks, then food.

Chick peas instead of chips and salsa! It was a NO for me. The best thing about eating tacos is starting with the chips and salsa, so that was an immediate disappointment. I'm sure there's a story behind why, but I'm not interested in hearing it.I had to get my chip fix by ordering nachos, which were presented well and plentiful but on the bland side. The star of the show was the Hibiscus Margarita! Perfectly crafted! All in all, the service was quick and professional. However, not having chips and salsa or food full of flavor, I will admit it's not a spot I will be in a rush to come back to.

Came here for brunch with my friends and it didn't disappoint. you start with complimentary garbanzo beans which are okayI ordered some tacos and rice and beans and everything was heavenly . I truly enjoyed the birria tacos on flour tortillas.The appetizer of guacamole, cheese, and salsa is very good. Everything is fresh. The margaritas are good too. I cant wait to return

Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience at Taco Boy. We came here for a quick lunch and sat at the bar. I ordered the 2 taco lunch platter that came with rice and beans, with a carne asada and traditional taco. The carne asada taco was pretty good, the rice was also very buttery and fluffy. However, the refried beans had no flavor and were almost inedible to me. The worst part: the traditional taco had lettuce and I found a bug in it. That really kind of ruined the rest of the experience for me and it was hard to enjoy the rest of the meal after that. Thankfully, the server was very understanding and she had a new taco without lettuce brought out to me and I didn't have to pay for the platter. I was very thankful for such understanding and great service from our server, but as you can imagine it's just difficult for me to want to come back after that experience.

Came here for a midweek lunch with friends and after visiting, eating and drinking I don't think I'll be rushing back. Street parking was available at the time and we came in to a pretty empty restaurant and were seated at a booth which was small and uncomfortable so we switched to a high top. The house margarita was good, not overly lime or sour mix flavor. Everything felt slightly grimy as there were crumbs in the booth we sat in and one of the silverware rolls at the second table was stained. I got nachos and everyone else got tacos, overall everyone enjoyed their food but just the sheer price of things will keep us from coming back.

Food was great. Place was super cute. Waitress was fantastic. Pitcher of Margs was well worth it!!! Will go back !!
