Taco Mora — Restaurant in Tallahassee

Food is amazing. I went this afternoon and plan to have dinner.

Update: my last visit to Taco Mora was not great. The food no longer rose to the level of my previous visits and the customer service offered by the staff as a whole was not pleasing. I could sense some tension from one of the cooks towards the waitress who was assisting me both were Hispanic or LatinX but from different regions. As the waitress was assisting me speaking in English and then relaying the comment to the cooks in Spanish the cook asked her in a condescending manner "so your from Puerto Rico," or some other latin country. It made me uncomfortable. Also, I got there late to pick up my meal which included a desert with ice cream. Instead of waiting to until I got their to put the ice cream in the bag, since ice cream melts, they placed the ice cream in the bag with the hot food on top of a hot bar. The ice cream melted and was soupy. They were going to charge me for another scoop of ice cream until I pointed out to them that the desert they provided was not what I ordered. They give me Churros instead of Xanga. When they made the Xanga they did not put enough cinnamon sugar on top. I asked for more cinnamon sugar, the waitress gave the box to an older Hispanic or LatinX lady who did not have a mask on and was speak over the food. I cringed as she was talking over my food but wanted to get out of there quickly because I was soo unhappy with the service I was receiving. I use to frequent this location but will not be going back for a...

I walked into Taco Mora and immediately smelled destiny — destiny fried lightly in oil and salted by the gods.

The chips? Fresh. Fresh beyond fresh. Fresh like rain on Mars. Fresh like a baby owl discovering jazz. Fresh enough that when I bit one, my past regrets evaporated into a fine mist.

I ate another chip. And another. Each one a hymn to freshness, a crunchy thunderclap of rebirth. By the fifth chip, I wasn’t a customer anymore — I was a willing disciple of the Great Chip Priesthood.

The tacos were incredible, don’t get me wrong — meat wrapped like secret wishes inside a tortilla blanket. But the chips? THE CHIPS. They could lead revolutions. They could fix marriages. They could teach plants how to love again.

In conclusion: Come for the tacos. Stay for the chips. Ascend because...

Upon arrival on a Tuesday the restaurant seemed really nice and great staff. After ordering and not liking a meal that I only took 1 bite of, I asked to switch out my meal got something else. I was told I would have to pay 50 percent of the uneaten meal and also pay for a new meal. After making it clear that I didn’t eat the food and it was nasty I finally got a new meal. After ordering dessert , asking for more water and the check , it took 45 min for me to just hunt down the waiter to ask for these items again. After waiting another 20 min I had to go inside to ask for the items again. Very disappointing experience. I don’t recommend going on a busy night or if you don’t want to be told you have to pay for a meal you...
