I always get the tree hugger burrito basket. It's a sizable meal that I always have leftovers from. I enjoy the chips, which are freshly fried, with salsa and guac as my included side. Order at a counter and get a number marker that you bring to any table. Water cups available. There are bathrooms. Probably can street park or park in the Park Happy garage near Jeni's and walk.

This is really mediocre Mexican food for way too much money. I've gotten their chicken burrito bowl a couple times, but $16 for a small-ish bowl that is mostly filled up with lettuce and rice is honestly unbelievable. The bowl itself really lacks flavor, the chicken is shredded and semi-dry, and the queso is completely flavorless and watery. I've had people around me get their burritos and quesadillas, and while the quesadillas are pretty big and standard, the burritos are on the smaller end and the rest of the plate is just filled up with chips. I understand that prices have to go up, but these prices have become outrageous for the quantity and quality that you get here. I would not recommend coming here. In fact, I'd go to Chipotle a million times before suggesting coming back to Taco Mama.

Fun atmosphere. Came here with my son and a bunch of his college friends. It was a great spot for a large group casual dinner. I really enjoyed the thin chips and salsa. The guac could use more flavor but seemed fresh. Skinny margarita was slightly tart but really good! I got two tacos. The classic ground beef hardshell and the steakhouse with soft tortilla. By far and away the basic ground beef taco was the better of the two. It had great seasoning, burst g with satisfying flavor. The gourmet steak taco was a bit flavorless IMO. I'd go back for the margarita, chips and salsa and the ground beef tacos for sure. Lots of other menu items. The line was out the door but moved along at a reasonable pace. Once we ordered and sat down the food came out super fast.

I am a first year at Vanderbilt and so this is a great close location to the freshman dorms. The food is pretty good. I am from San Diego so it is hard to compare these tacos but it is pretty good. Go queso for the side

I wish there was a way to give more than 5 stars because taco mama would get it. The quesadilla is my personal favorite because you can put unlimited toppings. The free chips are a plus too.The pomegranate margarita is to die for. I think about it and salivate all the way over in California.The vibes here are immaculate too. Love the atmosphere and the service is fast and friendly.Overall, sizable portions, affordable and extremely delicious - what more could you ask for?

First time visiting. We ordered the Judge burrito basket(this came with chips, salsa and a side), build your own burrito with tofu, kid's nachos with chicken, elote, ancho chile slaw a regular margarita and their new seasonal blood orange margarita. So everything was ok. Nothing special or really fancy to brag about. Everything kinda lacked seasoning and flavor even the margaritas had no flavor or hardly liquor. So the place was pretty busy you order at the register and they bring the food to you. The atmosphere is your normal restaurant . Not sure if I would go back, there was nothing that made me wanna try other items. There's too many taco places to try . I might . The customer service was great and everyone was very nice though.

Overall very tasty quick service , the only thing that was usual is that way you are served it's kinda buffet style in which I'm not really a fan of but everything else was really good from the service to the food. I will be back!

We have loved Taco Mama in Tuscaloosa and are so happy there is one in Nashville. Think of Taco Mama as a Moes/Chipotle but with even more food customization options. We love being able to build our own dish with a ton of different options to choose from, and they never skimp. Also they get the food out to you almost immediately after you sit down... freakishly fast service. The food: I built my own tacos with barbacoa, shredded cheddar, grilled onions, avocado, ancho chile slaw, and chipotle bbq sauce.... divine casual food. Their queso and chips is always really warm and tastes like a comfort food.It's mostly college students and the like going here, but I highly recommend Taco Mama for a casual Mexican place, and I'd bet you will be a returning customer after trying it!

Need a spot for Taco and Margs? Look no further! Taco Mama has awesome drinks, great margaritas and you will have a good time. Great food options as well. My favorite is the burrito bowl because it is customizable and you can get a lot with building your own bowl because it is basically unlimited free toppings. I opted to build my own bowl with steak, rice, beans, avocado (no extra charge for avocado/guac, which is rare nowadays!!), lettuce, tomato, onions, corn, cilantro, and cilantro lime vinaigrette. There is a whole list of toppings you can add and sauces you can select, all included in the price of the burrito bowl. The bowl and flavors are light, but yummy. I could see why some people would say the flavor is a bit more bland, but it was fine for me and to me personally, tasted more healthy. They also do "extra chips and salsa" for no extra charge, which was very nice. You order at the counter and then grab a table to sit. It's a very casual spot, but a good spot to meet friends.

Taco Mama is a lively and eclectic spot for a fun meal! As soon as we walked in we were met with a long but fast moving line for counter service on a Friday night. We were immediately greeted and had the menu explained to us, which was a nice friendly touch you don't usually get at a quick service restaurant, especially one this busy! We got to the front of the line within 10 minutes, and then got our food within 10 minutes of ordering. I paid $15 for a basket of 2 steak tacos, chips, salsa, and a side of my choosing (I went with the queso). It's not the best value ever, but you can get unlimited toppings and sauces with your meal. If you load up on guac and queso and other things that would be extra at other spots, it all evens out. The chips were thin, crispy and delicious. The tacos and salsa weren't the best I've ever had, but the kind and fast service in this fun atmosphere made everything taste perfect! The Prosecco margarita was so refreshing, and strong. They also have outdoor seating and vegetarian options. Check them out!
