Big disappointment – After hearing about this restaurant from friends, we drove there and waited at least thirty minutes for a table. We were told to anticipate the wait, so it was not a big problem. Once we sat down, it took over ten minutes to get a menu. After ordering, it took twenty minutes for half of us to get our food and another twenty for the rest of the group to get their food. The food -- the tortillas were soggy, and the filling was bordering on tasteless. We asked for some Tabasco sauce, and our waitress acted ... read more

Not worth the drive – After hearing about Taco Taco Cafe on the Food Network, we had to take a drive from the Stone Oak area to visit this local eatery. After waiting for 30 minutes in the heat and being rudely ushered to our seats, I found a sugar packet wrapper in my coffee and flies were everywhere you looked. We found the salsa to be grossly under seasoned and the Taco Norteno to be nothing more than an extra large fajita taco. This small cafe could use a huge renovation/expansion as well as a visit from the health inspe... read more

By far the best... – Upon returning to San Antonio (after 7 years) I am impressed. My children and I visit Taco Taco quite frequently for breakfast or lunch at least once a week! I've even taken a customer that wasn't aftraid of trying some real Mexican food. Homemade tortillas just like my grandmother's right off of the comal! I'm pretty picky about Mexican food coming from a border town but the Taco Norteno is AWESOME! Fresh refried beans with hot and steamy beef or chicken, avocado and yummy cheese and some fresh salsa, o... read more

Kind of a let down for the reader's pick of Best Taco In Town – I guess it was all the hype about this joint that may have led to my disappointment. It was breakfast time, if that means anything, and I have never tried their famous Norteno. For me, the measure of a Mexican restaurant is their salsa and their tortillas. Yes, Taco Taco does make their own tortillas, both corn and flour, but I found the flour tortillas to be doughy and too elastic -- almost rubbery. They also tended to absorb a lot of liquid and fell apart befo... read more

Our FINAL trip to TacoTaco – Don't believe all the Bon Appetit hype. In 20+ years in SA, we've visited Taco Taco a handful of times, but have never gone out of our way to eat there. In any case, breakfast last week was our FINAL trip. 8:00 am Sunday. The place is a third full. Several tables need bussing. The staff lingers in front of the counter chatting. My order, chosen from a menu with bent corners and salsa splotches, is taken within five minutes and arrives shortly thereafter. Huevos Mexicana has steaming hot eggs, but... read more

but DEFINATELY not the best, not in san antonio, let alone the usa!! we moved to san antonio last year, and we love trying any of the MANY mexican food places in town. so when we passed taco taco and saw the sign " best taco in america", we just had to try it out! not a good experience! first of all, we do alot of real mexican cooking at home, so we have a basis of comparison. we have learned, you can tell alot about a place by the chile/salsa/hotsauce they present...this one smelled spoiled! they denied it, claimed that it ... read more

Bad Service - Indifferent Management – I have gone to Taco-Taco many many times and enjoyed the experience. A month ago we had bad service and thought it was an anomaly. Last weekend, we retunred and had the following experience: Our waitress did not bring out chips and we had to ask for them. We asked for coffee with cream and she brought us cups filled so high that they spilled on to the saucer. She would not refill our coffee unless we flagged her down. We ordered guacamole to have with chips and waited 10 minutes for a s... read more
