Stopped by after doing a Pedal Pub tour. It was getting late but this place was still open!Most of us tried the spicy tikka taco which was delicious. Prob the best taco here! I also tried the kobe taco while some of my friends got the steak taco or the fish taco. Decent. Really Didn't care for the kobe.This place is handy if you need a late night bite. We had parked in the gravel lot next to it so it was easy to walk over.

Most of the time when I come here I feel like I have to wait for a few minutes and I get it maybe they are busy however this time I get here when their app tells me it's supposed to be ready at 8:02. It's now 8:25 and two people have asked me for my name and still no food. I'm about to just ask for the refund and never come back. This is starting to get ridiculous. I went back to look at the time to screen shot it to post but now it shows order complete and no longer shows the pickup time or 8:02. Note it's now 8:26 I'm standing in the pickup area and no one is acknowledged me in several minutes. This will probably be my last time coming here. Update it's now 8:28 only 26 minutes past their pickup time on their app. It's as if they completely discarded my order until I asked the second time and then they finally started working on it. This is ridiculous and I will never come back to any of these establishments after I collect all the rewards I've collected.

Enjoyed my first time at Velvet taco! It is in a nice location right around the corner from apartments and bars. Each of us got the "Say What! Combo" which is a good combo deal. Two tacos, a drink and a side? Yes please. I tried the Korean fried rice and spicy tikka chicken tacos, side of elote, and free chips and queso (if you download the app for the first time). I'm not a huge queso fan but this one here has a nice kick to it.

I've never been to Velvet Taco before. I knew there was a location in south Florida where I live, and have been meaning to check it out. It worked out great because when I visited my brother in Charlotte, we passed by one and he was raving about it! I see what all the hype is now. I loved that they had a lot of options to choose from. Since I don't eat beef or pork, sometimes it's hard to find places that have chicken options. I didn't have that issue here! My brother was raving about the buffalo chicken tacos. We had a couple of those and paired it with their frozen drinks! Talk about refreshing. I highly recommend visiting this location! Not only was it super clean, but the staff were friendly and the service wasn't bad at all. We didn't have to wait long at all for our food either

Visited Velvet taco for the first time and I was very impressed. The venue is in one of the cool neighborhoods in Charlotte with a lot of bars and fun place to hang out, so it is ideal for dinner or after hours snacks.You order at the counter and they take your order and your name, which will be called on the speaker system when ready.We started with the red curry queso, which was really interesting and a combination of flavors that I would never had thought would taste so good. For the tacos, I tried the chimichurri steak and the fried paneer one.Both of them were very good and the tortillas were warm and tasty as well. The food comes out rather quick which was a great plus. I really enjoyed the concept, the mix of different flavors and the fun open and welcoming environment. Can't wait to go back!

Uber Eats driver was fantastic.The first order didn't arrive from 6:49pm. I reordered at 9:04pm. The restaurant gave the driver the order from 6:49 in place of the new order. The bag has the 6:49pm receipt. They did not make a new fresh order and gave me 3 hour old cold stale food that could have caused health issues

This taco place is so good! Very small but great service. You go up to the counter to order and it got busy so it does take a while was the only downside. We did tableside order with qr code but they seemed a little confused by that. Food was so good! A little spicy but delicious! Definitely would come back.

Loved this place! It's counter service with a variety of places to sit both outside and inside, love the decor as well. There is a variety of tacos from chicken, beef, pork, fish, and vegetarian. I went with the smash burger and rotisserie chicken and both were SO flavorful. My husband got the spicy tikka masala, Korean fried rice and chimichurri steak. I tried each of them and they were all good, chimichurri had more of a kick than I was expecting but still good! they have a kids menu and my daughter got the cheese quesadilla. They also have high chairs for both the low top and high top tables which is great! Will definitely be back!

I was surprised this was a fast casual price upon walking in but it sure was quick and delicious! I had the chips & queso that was the perfect portion. I also tried two of the steak tacos and the flavor was fantastic. It is a bit pricey but it checks out in taste, so definitely want to come back. They also have deals on Tuesdays!
