Taco Mama - Florence

Taco Mama is a staple of the Florence community. Consistent, reliable Mexican food that is always a bang for its buck.Last time I ate here, I got a quesadilla. With all orders, you do get free chips, which is nice. It also comes fast as you order up front and then sit down. Wishing 5 minutes or so your food should be ready, unless it's super busy.The reason I didn't rate 5 stars was because of their sides, they are very hit or miss, and are almost always too small.The Mexican Mac and Cheese was alright, but nothing special. Don't order the Street Corn though, it's doused in mayo and cheese, which leaves little room for the corn itself.Almost anything else from the menu is good though, all of their specials have been delicious. My go to is always the quesadilla, as the flavors blend harmoniously, with the cheese being rich and savory, complemented by a multitude of fillings like grilled chicken, sautéed vegetables, or spicy peppers. Each crunch from the tortilla comes with a burst of flavor with each bite, often enhanced by a side of house made salsa or guacamole.Can't wait to come back.

Loved this place!! Free parking out front which is nice when you're in the downtown area. I got the veggie burrito bowl and it was so nice to find a spot with vegetarian food! The service was super fast and queso was delicious. There wasn't an up charge for topping which was awesome, so I piled it on. Really cute spot!!

This place kills it, in Florence AL,off the beaten path near a baptist church & brewery no less, on Hicks BlvdThe food was great, check out their Burrito Baskets.Can't remember an avocado shrimp burrito, 'The Hippie Fisherman' so fresh and flavorful. Or try the Ahi Tuna-Si! Taco Basket for a change-up.And talk bout value, much much better than your expected Tex-mex chain restaurants.Admit I do have a thing for fresh cooked thin chips for me salsa & guac. They also kind enough to keep a selection of hot sauces on table.. .. El Yucateco Chile HabaneroStaff, ownership v kind & on it

Fresh Mexican food made to order with a modern twist. It's like a partial self-serve but the staff is attentive and friendly. It's located in an old auto repair shop that I was in years ago and they turned it into a restaurant with a lot of style. Quick and good. So if you're in a hurry forget about fast food and go fast and fresh! Give it a try.

#fatjared say...It's unfortunate that 1 mistake can cause this place to not get 5 stars, but I have to stay true to how I grade. That being said, I LOVED this place. I suggest going here.5 stars on yelp is perfect. SO...to get 5 stars from me, you have to be perfect. I will save the complaint until the end, and focus more on the positive than the negative, because there was a lot of positive.The vibe is awesome. Open concept, easy ordering, nice staff, the menu is awesome, especially the names of the meals available, and there is no ceiling to what you can create or do here. A true place that values it's customers which I love. I am a BIG eater. So I decided to build my own burrito. I did not shy away from taking advantage of unlimited toppings. I ordered pretty much everything you see on the menu, and you can see from the pics, all the food was PLENTY to eat.I tried all the food in the pics, and it was all tasty, well balanced, not over cooked, and unique in flavors as well. I don't think you can order something bad on this menu.I don't think the chips are anything to write home about, but that's not my complaint. You can see in he pic I posted, that the sriracha on our table had old crusty yellow gunk in the bottle from being old. NOT ok. Ever. It's not a fault of the restaurant, just 1 employee, but man it was nasty. Sorry but not something I can overlook.All in all, for a local taco bar, this place is WORTH IT. Top notch. I loved it and I left satisfied. It is 5 starts food wise and everything wise, but you gotta be more attentive to details and not put spoiled hot sauce on the table. Overall though, well done!!

Delicious fish tacos tonight with grilled flounder! The chips were light and crispy, salsa mildly spicy, and the vegetarian black beans were also delicious! There is a huge menu and some quite fancy margaritas available as well! We sure hope to return someday and order up a fiesta to carry across the street to the brewery with a bartender who suggested we try the fish tacos. Oh, were we happy to have followed his tip! Thanks for the good eats!

Wow! Best Nachos ever. You pick what you want and they load it on for you. One order is enough for two. You will not leave hungry. They make their own chips. Everything is made fresh daily. I tell everyone about this place. Great atmosphere nice & casual. Wonderfully music top notch sound system. Yummy margaritas. They even give you samples so you can pick a favorite.

This was a pleasant surprise! Service was amazing & the food was awesome! Very flavorful & huge portions... which I gladly took back to our Air BnB and ate leftovers the next day AND STILL couldn't finish it all ! I will be back the next time I come to Florence!!!

Great service, Great food and cool atmosphere.. we had the sampler platter for appetizer, the chorizo, ahi tuna, chicken and flounder tacos. It was ALL delicious!

A wonderful place. The food price is a little high, but not outrageous. The food is delicious and totally worth it. It has a wonderful area, and parking. It also has a cool building.
