TACO GUY — Restaurant in Norwalk

If culinary perfection had a name, it would undoubtedly be called "Taco Guy". This gem of a place is where exquisite Mexican cuisine harmoniously meets an ambiance of casual comfort and genuine hospitality.

From the moment I stepped through the doors of Taco Guy, I knew I was in for a treat. The restaurant's lively, welcoming atmosphere drew me in, but it was the memorable food and drink that truly stole the show.

The journey began with their Carnitas Taco. It was an absolute delight to the senses. The slow-cooked, tender pork carnitas nestled in a soft, warm tortilla held an explosion of flavors that felt like a celebration on the palate. Complemented by a medley of pickled onions and fresh cilantro, each bite was a balance of zesty tanginess and earthy tones. It was nothing short of a masterstroke, an elegant blend of tradition and innovation.

But it was the Suadero Short Rib taco that elevated my dining experience from fantastic to phenomenal. Rich, savory suadero, meticulously marinated and slow-cooked until irresistibly tender, was cradled in the heart of a tortilla. Accompanied by slices of creamy avocado, a hint of cilantro, and crunchy onion, the combination was as visually appealing as it was delicious. Each ingredient sang in perfect harmony, creating a symphony of flavors that danced gracefully on the tongue.

As if the sublime tacos were not enough, the mezcal mule was a revelation in itself. A perfect mix of smoky mezcal, ginger beer, and lime, this refreshing cocktail was the ultimate beverage to cut through the richness of the food. The attention to detail and balance in the mixology was apparent with every sip, the smoky sweetness of the mezcal blending seamlessly with the sharp ginger and citrus flavors.

Service was exceptional - friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being intrusive. It's evident that Taco Guy places great importance on ensuring each guest feels valued and well taken care of.

To put it simply, Taco Guy isn't just serving food and drinks; they're crafting experiences, creating memories around shared tables and good food. If you're looking for authenticity, quality, and an unparalleled dining experience, Taco Guy is the place to be. A night here isn't just a meal—it's a culinary journey through the...

Don’t let all of these 5 star reviews trick you. Simply put, the food was inedible. As we’ve been trying to find a decent Mexican restaurant in the area and had heard nothing but great things about this place, we jumped on the bandwagon and ordered takeout from here. I will never distrust my food-loving gut again.

We picked an array of menu items, including the chicken tinga quesadilla, birria quesadilla, fish tacos, and guac. While I enjoy my fair share of heat, both quesadillas had an absolutely ridiculous amount of seeded jalapeños in them, completely zapping my taste buds and stinging my lips to all hell - not to mention jalapeños were NOT listed as being in the quesadillas. Also, I ordered a chicken quesadilla, not a soggy pile of unseasoned substance that even my dog would turn his nose at. As for the fish taco…if you can’t even simply season a piece of fish before you deep fry it in whatever prison-quality toilet beer batter you have on hand, I’d stay away from this profession at all costs, as to not disappoint another poor soul that happens upon this incredibly over expensive, stale, embarrassment of a “Mexican Restaurant”.

If negative stars were possible, this one would have an...

Awesome tacos .. reminds me of a quality food truck tacos . Burro Locco cocktail is fire . Everyone should definitely try it. But then … after paying for service and finishing up our last drink… we decided to order another round. It’s cinco de mayo, the vibe was great. Drinks were on point. But then… We were asked if we were able to pay our bill .. we said yes, but we ordered another round. With that being said, the hostess said to us, “we need the table back”. She did say we could stay , but she was going to need the table back… How do you push away a paying customer ? how do you push away a first time paying customer ? how do you push away a first time paying customers who tipped and was not rude in any way. Very sad to experience this for the first time. Is this normal ? This review may be irrelevant , but I hope these words may encourage Tacos Guys to treat their...
