Taqueria Taxco — Restaurant in Fort Worth

07/18/23--I'm censoring myself outside while writing this, but today was the second time I've gone to this store since it's opened sometime this year. The last time was sometime in the last week or two, and it was only to use the restroom. Today I went in to simply fill up my water bottles in the restroom. I didn't want to bother with the ice machine and the changing costs of ice cups at the stores–despite ice water just being better, overall, for me in this new pattern of triple digit weather in North Texas. The man and woman working behind the counter immediately responded to me entering the store with gestures (waving frantically with big eyes). I wasn't moved; I was waiting for them to communicate verbally and civilly, which I didn't think is silly. It's common decency. The man said that "this is not welcome", and pointed down. So, I had to assume he was talking about my tote bags–not my testicles (cue the rim shot). But I asked him directly? And he said in a few words or less that he was talking about both my backpack and my open tote bag, which has a broken zipper and, therefore, stays open. So even if I was going to steal (which I wasn't), that would leave more of an opportunity to see what I had taken. So, I don't know what else to do but to leave this review for this brand new store that hopefully other people might read and reach their own conclusions based on.

I've been a customer, but I've also worked behind the counter at locations that served all kinds of people, including people who look homeless and are actually homeless. I didn't care about their bags. I worked at a train station, but even at other stores where there weren't customers with luggage regularly, I didn't care about the customer's bags. It was my job to sort of watch the scene and see if they had taken anything. And so if I, as a low-level team member, missed that they took anything, then I simply missed it. That means they got away initially. And furthermore…something tells me that reports and studies I could probably find with a quick Google search would show that it would be people who look the most unassuming and wholesome who do most of the shoplifting in their bags that they're never checked for, such as purses. So, humiliating–even if that's too strong of a term–me today was a moot and futile thing to do. It's an extreme, over-exaggerated reaction. I've got to know when it's time to be mad.

I'm Christian, but being half-humorous and half-serious, I don't know what the "matrix" subconsciously told those people to profile me. I don't have a "pattern" of shoplifting from any kind of stores. They harassed and turned away the wrong person. Shoutout to the people walking in right now…and the next day and the next day and the next day and the next day…like Mr. Krabs and Plankton, who are...

I had an absolutely terrible experience at Taqueria Taxco off Elderville Rd. The lady behind the counter was incredibly rude, had a terrible attitude, and was mumbling the whole time. I ordered a carne asada burrito, and she initially told me they couldn't do it, only to change her mind after talking to someone else. Super confusing and unprofessional.

I also ordered a chorizo breakfast burrito. When I got home, I found that I had been charged $15 for what turned out to be two tiny tacos, not burritos. The tortillas were soggy to the point of being slimy, and the carnitas was dry and tasteless — not carne asada like I ordered. The chorizo had no flavor at all.

To top it off, when I asked for extra salsa, she literally tossed one towards me. I asked for one more of the red salsa, and she flat out said "no." At that point, I was ready to leave and not even tip her, but I was going to leave $5 initially when the “burritos” were ready. Not a chance after that encounter.

This was an absolute waste of money. The food went straight into the trash. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. Highly do...

Well.. you're going to wait a while for your food. Got two breakfast burritos. Flavor was okay. They were more like tacos than burritos. Think they need to get bigger tortillas to be able to fold them up properly so they don't spill when eaten. Was a bit messy to eat. Added bacon to one of my burritos and didn't really see it, but found a tiny piece. They're just getting started, so I won't be too harsh.

Two hard-working guys behind the counter. They only have one size drink for the agua frescas. I think it's a 32 oz. Was going to get an horchata, but didn't want that big of a size.

There is one table and two chairs for seating. Pretty decent for the small space, but maybe they can get just a couple more chairs since you have to wait a while...
