Taco Zocalo

Nachos: Picture this. It's my wedding day. I am about to walk down the aisle and join my fiancé at the altar, as we begin our new life together. It's one of those moments in life I know will replay in my head before I die. It's the. moment, the most special moment of my life. I couldn't be more excited. The doors open, time slows down, "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon starts playing in the background. All eyes are on me, every emotion is heightened, I've never felt so alive. I lock eyes with my soon-to-be-husband, and begin making my way towards him, towards our new beginning. I make my way to him, we join hands, and the officiant we hired from Craigslist begins the ceremony. As he begins, my fiancé and I are beaming with excitement, and we chuckle as the officiant routinely asks "does anyone object to this uni-", but suddenly, and shockingly, he gets interrupted by a familiar voice in the crowd. Sudden gasps emerge from the crowd. In panic, I drop my fiancés hands, and my eyes search the room for the voice that made my heart stop. It's him... it's my first love, my first spicy toxic relationship, it's the one that got away. It's the plate of nachos from Taco Zocalo. He repeats "I object", and it echoes across the room, across my heart, and shatters the reality of the present moment. Tears rush down my face as I look my fiancé in the eyes, he knows... he knows I'll never love him the same way. I utter a staggered "I'm.. sorry..", I pick up my 2004 Vera Wang gown and I make a run for it. A run towards the one I always wanted. The crowd rises in uproar and disbelief, but none of it gets to me. "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon plays again, the adrenaline rush blurs out the chaos around me, and the only sight I am focused on is the plate of nachos from Taco Zocalo infront of me. I run into his arms, I kiss him and he tastes like homemade mango habanero sauce. I have found my forever love. We escape from reality, we kiss in the rain, and we find the nearest courthouse to join in unholy matrimony. All else: work wife said these were the best tacos she's had in a while and I couldn't agree more. Everything was cooked to perfection. The staff ladies were super sweet. The food here is worth all your money.

I came to Taco Zocalo with high hopes for some tacos, but unfortunately, the experience left me a bit disappointed. I tried the steak, chicken, and barbacoa tacos, and while the presentation was nice, the flavors just didn't hit the mark.The tortillas were dry, like super dry, but maybe that's because we came within the last hour before closing? The meats were underwhelming--they were also a bit dry and lacked seasoning, leaving it feeling a bit bland.I appreciated the variety of sauces available, but I found myself needing to rely on them too much to add flavor.The atmosphere was casual and inviting, but overall, the tacos didn't quite live up to the hype. I'd be willing to try them again, but maybe earlier in the day.

Tacos were great! The flour tortillas were really soft and filled up with meat and toppings. The lunch special is perfect. The jarritos bottles are a little expensive at $3.50. I would absolutely come back for tacos and try the burritos!

This location is perfect for a quick lunch or to-go orders with drinks in a refrigerated case. The beef barbacoa tacos were filled with fresh veggies, and the meat, what flavor! They were the best tacos, hands down, I've ever had. Then you've got the chips, chunky, thick salsa and refried beans. So yourself a favor and go. The server was friendly and asked questions to make sure she had the order correct. Hopefully I'll find a location close to MI.

Came here for lunch on a weekend and it pretty busy, we got the last table available. I ordered the lunch special which I don't think is worth since it's around the same price as 3 tacos and the beans and rice aren't super large. I think that 3 tacos would have been better. The tacos themselves were pretty great though. I got the steak and the chicken since that's what I usually get and both were excellent

This place was great once years ago, I was in the area came to have some tacos. Not even 30 mins later, playing paint ball with toilet... spoiled food

The tortillas for the tacos were very thick and it was very dry. The chips and salsa was very good. The burrito bowl was good as well. The price was reasonable.

I was in Mexico a month ago and every time I was getting tacos over there, I kept thinking how in the heck is Taco Zocalo back home tasting better than most Mexican tacos?? I eventually found a great taco place in Mexico but Taco Zocalo still beats most of them. I cannot recommend this place enough. Every time I'm craving tacos, it's Taco Zocalo time for me. Taco Bamba, Bar Taco, nah nah. It's Taco Zocalo! Insert Drake meme here. The downside of tacos being so good here is that I don't know what else on their menu is good LOLNote that the one by Wiehle Ave is the OG place. There have been a few branches opened since they are doing so well. I've been getting tacos at the OG place for years now and it tastes the best in my opinion. The new branches are great too but the OG place always takes it up a notch consistently. The place is quite small so if you're planning to dine in, it may or may not have open tables. However, know that people usually pick up or get delivered most of the time. My go-to order is a three-taco combo with 1 steak and 2 fish. I switch between flour and corn tortillas from time to time. I like them both. Don't forget to get the chips and salsa. The salsa here is out of this world. Pair it all with tamarind soda! You must know that pictures cannot represent very well the way they taste. You just have to try it. Did I forget to mention it's CHEAP?

I have loved this place since it opened but I have to be realistic here. Their expansion has been the downfall of their quality. The biggest complaint is the new corn tortillas they use. They just are not good. What used to be the best corn tortillas are now my least favorite. They used to yellow. They are now orange. They used to grill them which just made the taco experience the best, now they don't. And the corn tortillas are now soft and squishy and even fall apart when not grilled and when I asked to have the corn tortillas specially grilled they became very tough and chewy which ruins the whole experience. I am sad. I do not want gringo flour tortillas. Double sad. Triple sad is that the tacos are now smaller than they used to be. Boo! Additionally, the meats which were once so tasty and succulent are now dry and almost tasteless.

Really good tacos! This place is better for takeout but the quality is so good and the tacos are a pretty decent size. I tried both the chicken and steak and loved both of them.
