We saw this restaurant on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, and we knew we were coming to Tennessee, so we figured we'd try it. When we got there, being from out of state, it was hard figuring out where to park. And yes, there was a review that mentioned the homeless, and they are right around the corner. It took time to find where to park and then where we could park, we had to pay for it so I wanted to make sure it was worth it.
I checked to see if they had an online menu, and they did. We looked at the menu and the prices. One taco for $3, and it only came it onions and cilantro? Yes, authentic, but a lot. We considered the bowl, but we didn't know what all came in the grilled veggies, and we wanted more options. So as not to drive off with regrets, we just got two chicken tacos and ordered online. You can see from outside that the location is small, and once inside, it's pretty much where they cook and you order. There is another add-on out back where you can sit and eat.
Got the food, very light container. If you have not had street tacos before, they are the little baby taco shells, and 4 or so inches wide. That's what we got. Two filled with chicken and very little onion and cilantro. It was gone very quickly. What we had was ok. Would I go back, no. Would I recommend for people looking for a real meal, no. If you just want a...
Read moreNEW FAVORITE TACO PLACE !! Seriously so flavorful and incredibly filling ! I am pescatarian , but I NEVER like catfish , so I was definitely skeptical and only got one , but wow that was incredible !!! Should have gotten more ! I also got the tofu bowl , which I loved the flavor of , but I’m a texture person so I will get it in a taco form next time or add lettuce if that’s possible bc the flavor was AMAZING … and it’s easily made vegan !! The taco shells didn’t break despite being piled SUPER tall with fish, cilantro, and pickled onions which was amazing ! Really seriously get the fish taco even if you aren’t a fan of catfish — it’s life changing
I could not be more excited to have a new place for solid affordable to-go options ! Oh and free EASY parking !! The seating there is really cute (it’s a lot bigger and brighter than you’d think) but I live super close so I didn’t stay to eat but wow 10/10 !
TLDR : delicious flavorful lunch under $10!?! With free & easy parking?!? In Nashville!?! It’s like magic! I’ll be...
Read moreSolid spot for authentic tacos and soapapillas.
Food I tried every street taco and the Nashville hot chicken and fish taco as well as the green rice and the desserts. Overall I think the food is solid. I agree that it's authentic except for the Nash tacos. The meat is well made and juicy - large portions on the tacos. I will say this is a preference thing but I thought it was too much meat on the tacos which can make it dry when eating it especially since it's on a small tortilla. I think the birria tasted good but once again personal preference I like my birria tortillas to more cooked on the outside and less wet/floppy. Aside from that the tacos and birria taste good!
Service The staff is welcoming and polite. All smiles when you walk inside. Went during lunch time and it wasn't much of a wait. They don't take long to call you up for your food.
Ambiance there is an inside seating area that's cold and feels good if it's really hot out. I like the patio/deck area. Very normal place to...
