Taco Zone — Restaurant in Fort Wayne

Went here on a whim while working in the area. These are some pretty great authentic tacos (which are hard to find in Indiana) at an economical price. So if you want some good authentic tacos near the airport, please stop here. See update for torta and chorizo queso, which are not quite as highly recommended.

I got four tacos -- 2 steak, 1 carnitas, and 1 chorizo -- all Mexican style. All of the meats were flavorful and came out quickly, with the chorizo being my favorite. Ask for the salsas to add additional flavor. I should've asked for the hottest sauce, but the verde (green) sauce still paired well.

The individuals behind the counter were kind and quick, making my to-go experience better.

Update: I went back to recently. I ordered over the phone and my food was ready in 10 minutes. This time, I ordered the steak torta and wanted to try the chorizo queso as well.

Torta- it was descent. The bread was light and the steak wasn't too chewy. I do wish that there was a little heat, lime, or tajin, in order to add some additional flavor. Not bad, but not memorable.

Choriqueso - this was a typical monterey jack and white velveeta-based queso with a scoop of chorizo thrown in. There was definitely enough for 4+ people, so I wouldn't suggest getting it for only one person. It didn't have anything extra tossed in to add heat or additional flavor, so I would say that it was run-of-the-mill.

My one major issue...the fries that came with the torta. This establishment is RIGHT by an Arby's and the fries were identical to Arby's in every sense of the word. I've had fries that taste similar to Arby's from other establishments before, but never an EXACT replica. It was so uncanny that I just couldn't trust them.

Overall thoughts: the tacos were great, but after trying some other options, I'll probably keep with only the...

This place is the epitome of a hole in the Wall restaurant. What it lacks in size and classiness is made up for by the outstanding tacos you're going to get. It's odd that they don't sell fountain drinks, which are the cash cow of most restaurants. Instead they sell cans and bottles of American and Mexican sodas. But you could probably get away with bringing your own drink without anyone saying anything. Your order also comes with a very small portion of chips and salsa. It's good enough to warrant purchasing a full basket. Go ahead and do it when ordering your tacos so you don't have to wait in line a second time...

Definitely not worth the hype! I ordered Asada Nachos, my husband ordered tacos. There was no flavor to anything. The beans tasted canned, the guacamole definitely not homemade. I had maybe an ounce of meat on my plate and it cost about $7. My nachos were mostly lettuce and sour cream. The chips were stale. They charged $2 for fountain drinks, about 20 ounces. My soda was warm. They offer a small boat of chips and liquidy salsa that also tastes like it's from a can. We were so disappointed as we saw so many positive reviews. Maybe it was an off day but I won't be back...
