Taco Casa

The food is great and the staff is friendly and courteous every time I visit. The taco salad is rated the best in the city for a good reason!!

It's American style Tex mex so don't look down your nose because "it's not authentic Mexican." Not trying to be. Sort of a craft version of Taco Bell, I'd say but lots of differences between the two. Taco salad still a classic and best in town. I love their beef enchilada pie and their beef tacos. Ambience is nothing fancy but it works. Pro tip: eat in, don't carry out or use a food delivery service. It's waaaaaaaay better if eaten on the spot. I think a ton of these places have suffered too much because the food delivery services (1) take too much of a cut off the top of the profit and (2) deliver food too slowly, which makes quality suffer. JMO!

I don't go to Taco Casa for the high quality food, but I'd at least expect some bit of courtesy. I'm a firm believer in spending my money at locally owned businesses, and I do so almost exclusively. People seem to care (usually) and it (usually) shows. So if I get a craving for crappy "Mexican" food, I usually hit up Taco Casa over Taco Bell. I'd never been to this location before, and probably won't ever again. I ordered at the counter to-go (a large taco salad), and I'm used to the point of sale computers where you type in the tip, but the order taker was like, "do you want to add a tip?" Even though I usually do, two other people waiting for food were right there watching and it definitely felt obligatory. So I wait to the side until my food is put on the counter and I immediately say, "can I get some of the extra hot sauce?" But she had already started small talk with the next customer. So I waited for a lull in the conversation, standing awkwardly with my $18 salad as they seemingly flirt together. I tried waving, holing my finger up (as if I'd like to make a comment--because I DID). Finally I convey to her that I'd like the extra hot sauce they only keep behind the counter, and I tried to ask for two, since I ordered a large salad, but she was already chatting away again. But she had gotten the word to the guy in the kitchen and I heard a verbal response. I even saw him pick up one container and fill it with the extra hot sauce, cap it, and put it on the prep counter. He makes one taco salad, bags it up, he makes another, bags it up. He makes a third salad, bags it up. He was starting on the fourth food item when it became brutally obvious that neither employee had any intention of walking my sauce 10 feet and handing it to me. Almost lost on me was the irony that the cashier was too busy messing around with the tip jar and half-joking with the chatty customer saying he needed to tip more with paper bills than coins. Still my extra hot sauce just sat there, 10 feet away behind the counter. After waiting at least four minutes, looking stupid in front of the Door Dashers, I just walked out. If you're intentionally trying to ignore and alienate your customers you're doing great! Maybe I didn't tip enough?!

Delicious!! Unique!! Quick!! If you're wanting ambiance, this is not your place. If you're wanting good food, at least what I get, this is the place. I get a small burrito bowl with extra sauce, a small tuna bowl and an order of chips. And the sad thing is that I eat it all. It's a LOT of food and it's sooooo good. I live out of town, so I don't get it that often, but I surely enjoy it when I do.

Their Taco Salads are AMAZING. Been going to Taco Casa since I discovered them in the mid 1970's in their Clifton location.Great food, no frills, reasonably priced!

The best little secret!! This is a 4 times a month restaurant, do not let the simplicity fool you ,the food is excellent!

This place is a hidden gem. It is the definition of a hole in the wall place, located in a small strip mall. Staff was friendly and helpful. Pruces were good, food was great. I will definitely be adding this place into our regular rotation. I can't wait to try a few different things. Yum. Great food! Try it. Highly recommend!

Best taco salads around. Their staff is always friendly. The restaurant is clean. We always get lunch here when we're in the area.

Been eating Taco Casa since I was boy in the late '60s when it was Taco Tico on Erie Ave.. For me, they are the definition of Mexican fast food. To their credit, they have maintained the food quality for all these years. Same great taste today. Highly recommended!

I truly don't want to damage a business and hurt innocent workers, but I don't want another family to spend a lot of money eating here without good info. We had unwittingly purchased an Amazon gift card for this place, which they refused to honor. The food was truly bad. Extremely rancid taco shells, all of the food was microwaved but still cold, refried beans and taco meat were very bad. I don't have high standards for fast food, I can eat just about anything but couldn't eat more than a couple of bites. Maybe it was just an incredibly off day for them, try an appetizer first like chips and queso and then decide if you want to try more.
