Tacotaco - Toronto

Great interior/outside atmosphere and beautiful personal. they have very accused our great group for our work. the food came fast and drinks were refreshing!

This is not the typical place you see on open table. It is very casual and inexpensive. Food is simple tacos and burritos but delicious, with excellent sides of spicy cucumber and corn fritters as examples. Ambience is Mexican kitsch, perfectly suited for Kensington vibe. One small criticism: Don't use paper plates and plastic forks, raise the prices a little if that is what it takes for proper plates and cutlery. Service is very friendly and accommodating.

Showed up for a reservation, they didn’t have a table so we waited which is fine. Within half hour everyone left and we were the only ones there. Service was mediocre. No one checked on us to see how our meals were, the girl behind the counter was more interested on her phone. I always heard positive raves about the food, and it was just okay. I was there for a birthday dinner and they took so long to come around when we were done, that we didn’t want to order dessert cause of the “wait”, even though it was just us and one other couple. The service lacked for me. I take pride in good service. I would give them another chance with the food and would hope for better customer engagement.

I held my birthday here but this place didn’t seem organized for a large party. The food and the tacos were great but as for professionalism it wasn’t there. I booked my party several days well in advanced to only be texted 3 hours prior on the day of my event. I had a small amount of time 1hr30 mins and to be moved outside because of a “private party”. I understand double booking happens but you don’t give 3 hour notice when someone has already planned time and sent out invites already. Several of my party guest travelled from out of Toronto to get here. No apologies were given. Me and my party were forced to finish our meals in the freezing cold. This review was left because I was lied to on the phone about a fully covered patio 3 hrs prior to me showing up, by this point I was already annoyed. Your outdoor heaters suck btw if it’s not a fully covered patio. Don’t recommend a patio when the weather is under 15 degrees with wind. We paid our bills in a rush because our time was up and ended up at a better establishment down the road from here which we enjoyed indoors.

Went on their thursday open Mic night. The restaurant had a great vibe and everyone was having a great time. Service from staff was great and prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend getting one of their taco combos and trying the cod taco, shrimp taco or the surf and turf one!
