Taceaux Loceaux

The flavors of the tacos were good, but the potatoes weren't fully cooked, which kind of ruined both of them. He might have exchanged them if I said something, but I didn't. The queso had no flavor, but the salsa and beans were good. The menu on the wall is illegible. It was very quick!

I was bummed reading other recent reviews about Taceaux Loceaux. I went last week and had a very pleasant experience. I went on a Thursday evening and it was not super crowded. I started with their housemade hibiscus margarita with a tajin rim instead of salt. I thought it was good and not too sweet. The tacos, to me, were delicious. I think they have an option for anyone and they have some pretty unique combos. I loved the Korean inspired taco and their classic brisket taco. I did go for the tacos but I did get to try their guacamole and the amazeballs. The guac was not the best and you don't get much -- could've used more seasoning. I liked the amazeballs + they come with a really good chipotle aioli. I think this place has some things to work on while they get situated from reopening but I do think they have some great tacos!

I went to their location in the Saint Roch market. the man who was behind the counter, was on his phone and did not even look up when I was standing there looking at the menu. I understand that probably a lot of people do that and look at different places so they don't always order. However, I had to interrupt him to get his attention to place my order for nachos. . I added meat and beans. The taste was different. I can't say that it was good. As I was eating them I found two french fries in my order. To my knowledge don't serve french fries.

Our server and the kitchen were fully overwhelmed, the air conditioning wasn't working - it was more comfortable outside once we left! They were out of all sorts of things but had no way of designating that on the menus. My friend's food came incredibly late - the apparent manager on duty apologized that the food was coming out in the order it was entered and so couldn't just get a single shrimp taco made when we'd been waiting 40 minutes. And then the shrimp texture was gummy? I don't know how that can happen. They could have kept the drinks coming while everything else fell apart, but that didn't happen. We left aghast at how bad it had all been. I recall it being a good taco truck but this is far from that.

They we slammed and couldn't handle it. Our poor waitress did her best. The ... whatever Korean tacos were one of the weirdest things I've eaten and not in a good way. They put the wrong meat in my burrito. It was 84 degrees. I had an out of body experience. It's like I was on one of those ayahusca challenges but it was just regular dinner I'm still not right.

It was a bit crowded so we sat at the bar. We each ordered a margarita and I preferred mine on the rocks. I had a burrito with carnitas and veggies. I forgot what she ordered. I was very happy with mine.

I really really wanted to love this truck. I followed the footsteps of Anthony Bourdain and closed out my night (albeit a lot early than Anthony) in front of Kingpin, eating tacos. Side note: I took a minute to reflect on the importance of mental health and reminded myself to try and be there for the people I love. Back to tacos. All the elements of a good taco were there, but there were a few missteps that night. The corn tortillas were not warmed property and were dry and hard. The carnitas and carne, both overly salty, didn't have enough fresh ingredients to balance them out. I found myself wanting a salsa bar, or a beer. Maybe this meal would have been enjoyed more with more beer, later in the evening, but the magic just didn't happen for me that night.

I wanted to love it because I had some great tacos during their first existence on Octavia. They were out of the tacos I wanted (brisket) so I tried the carnitas taco and the steak taco. Neither were great but neither were bad. The margarita was nothing special. The restaurant was full so we sat at bar next to window. It. Was. Hot. Everyone was fanning themselves. Also there was a huge spider in wall by me that kept going up and down making a web. I was so afraid it was going to fall on me. The staff was very nice and they were trying.

I hate to write bad reviews because I want the restaurants in New Orleans to always do well, but my boyfriend and I were quite upset about our dinner. Service was great. Food came pretty fast, but I did not think the food was good at all. Needed some salt in my opinion. Lacked flavor. We had 5 tacos. If you were looking for tacos I would prob go somewhere else. It was also a little pricey for tacos. The up charged for gulf shrimp taco when the gulf is literally 60 miles away from us...

Staff was kind and courteous. But an hour wait for chips and queso, not to mention the meal that I never laid eyes on. Not a great look for the grand re-opening. Need to be ready...
