Taco Mamcita's former location was one of my go-to spots for Tex Mex fare. I was very sad when they closed and ecstatic to hear that they reopened.I started with the skinny margarita which was good but had a fairly strong chemical aftertaste, which is uncommon compared to other skinny margaritas I've had at other restaurants. Regardless, it was still good (and I ordered two).For an appetizer, we started with a trio of salsas (fire roasted, fresh mango and diablo). As someone who likes super spicy foods, the diablo was my favorite. However, I appreciated how fresh and flavorful the other two were. We also ordered the white queso, which was delicious -- the perfect combination of rich and creaminess.Moving on to the entree, I ordered the two tacos and a side combo. I'm a vegetarian, so I selected the avocado and black bean tacos. Both were very good. The avocado taco packed a punch with the chipotle honey hot sauce, but it was offset by the cool avocado slices. Those two flavors were elevated by the pico, pickled red onion, and the jalapeno lime aioli. The black bean taco was also delicious. The crispy black bean veggie patty was cut into slices which made for an easier to eat taco. It was supported by avocado, pico, salsa verde, jalapeno lime aioli, feta cheese and cilantro. Those all combined to make a divine taste profile. I don't know which of the two I liked more.I chose the Mexican street corn for my side and it was incredible -- creamy, tangy and packed with flavor. I could have eaten an entire bowl.The service was great, and I really liked the ambiance of the new location. I'm so glad it's back. I look forward to many more visits in the future.

I was interested to see what Mexican food was like in Nashville, coming from California my standards are fairly high. The location was very cute, ample seating and very modern. Our server Alex was extremely attentive and nice! Provided suggestions and made my friends birthday special, got everyone to sing for her!As for the food... maybe my taco selections weren't the best. The birria was lacking meat and not very flavorful. The fish taco was more like a fish stick... very disappointed. The best thing on my plate was the esquite side! So tasty! Also, the mamas hot sauce on the table was AMAZING! I would buy some for my home if I could.

When I tell you this food is *IT*I moved to Germantown just under a week ago and have already been here twice. The food is flavorful, unique but also somehow familiar, and portions are generous. The Quesalada Suizas may have changed my life. Probably dramatic, but also very truthful. The rotisserie-style chicken absolutely hits.The seating style is unique with lots of curved booths intertwined and the building itself feels like a converted warehouse which is very industrial-chic. It's an interesting vibe with very cool artwork, too!On both visits, the staff was friendly, informative, attentive and helpful. We brought family by on our second visit and my in-laws, who eat Mexican frequently, were blown away. My father-in-law wanted to know what time they opened in the morning so he could come back my mother-in-law was raving about the flavor of her tacos and also feeling her margarita authentico. They're not inexpensive, but they pack a punch! Both my husband and I love the skinny marg. It's so light and refreshing. A unique margarita flavor but somehow familiar -- almost like Fresca. Noteworthy sides are the charro beans and the street corn. Salsa isn't complimentary here, but the selection of types is cool and the flavors are on point. Our favorites are the mango and fire-roasted.If you couldn't tell by now, we'll be back for a lot of reasons. Do yourself a favor and check out this Germantown gem!

Taco mamacita is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants that feel healthier and cleaner! I always get the Peruvian chicken with sweet potatoes and plantains. You get a lot of food for the price and the sauces are the best!

The service was very attentive and knowledgeable about the food. We ordered Chips & Queso and added chorizo, which was excellent. Three of us split this comfortably, and since it was filling enough, I went with the Tacos Authenticos meal. Both were good, but I think the Barbacoa was far superior compared to Mezcal Shrimp. The street corn was also pretty good. Overall: it was a good experience and I would go back if we visit Germantown again. Nothing over-the-top incredible, but a solid taco spot in a very walkable part of Nashville. The server was also very knowledgeable about allergies, and it was very gluten free-friendly

I was looking for a place for dinner during a work trip to Nashville, this place popped up as close to my hotel and I love tacos, so I made my way over.It was packed! Which you love to see, I was lucky to slide up to the bar.I had a delicious avocado jalapeño margarita, a ranch water which is topo Chico tequila and lime.I had the pineapple habanero salsa, the Nashville hot chicken and avocado taco, everything was delicious! I had a great time and would come back here if I'm in the area again. A fun modern twist on Mexican!

We came into Taco Mamacita for the first time, and Sarah S was our server. We had some tacos and sloppy queso, which were amazing. I love a spicy margarita and she suggested the el Diablo and it did not disappoint. We will definitely be back!
