“We absolutely love this place!! It is so kid friendly. Both times we have been here has been amazing. The first time, my daughter had a meltdown. I tried everything I could to calm her down. And two of the staff members were able to help calm her down. And checked on us throughout the time we were there. The second time we were there. They were celebrating someone’s birthday and shared some of the birthday things with our kids.I just want to say you are all amazing and wonderful!!“

“I tried a chicken burrito and it was great. The chicken was seasoned well and had perfect char on it. It had lettuce, tomato, cheese, and sour cream on it. The meal came with a spice tray that had 4 sauces and a habenero onion chutney. The sauces ranged from sweet to VERY hot. Having vacationed many times in Mexico I can say that TaColumbus is the most authentic "Mexican tourist" restaurant I have found anywhere in the midwest. The staff was friendly and attentive.“

“I come here often. It’s a little hole in the wall, but it’s very good and the service is good too. I believe it’s only one server, so sometimes there’s a wait which i’m okay with. I love their tortas, and their tacos! The prices are great too. I love how it’s a little garage, it might be old to some people but I don’t mind at all! Everyone there is really nice and kind!“

“It was decent, the asada burrito was a good size and flavor but didn't come with sides, the chipotle shrimp had nice flavor as well as the beans, it was just a pretty small serving size. I did like the soft corn tortillas it came with. I don't remember another time I've finished a whole meal at a Mexican restaurant, and not felt full. Just something to know ahead of time that it's good if you're looking for a smaller meal. They also forgot to give us the guac we bought or any chips, which I guess might not be included. The green salsa was good and the red salsa was super spicy. Smaller place with inside seating, food came out for takeout pretty quickly (~15 minutes).“

“This place does not have a lot of the El Nopal energy that makes El Nopals in Louisville and Corydon great. The NFL playoff games were on the TVs but there was no sound........ the TV sound wasn't on but there was no music playing.There was an entire room being blockes off by stacked tables and chairs.Whole place had a weird vibe. Felt like one of those Chinese food buffets where the workers and super scared of their boss and super awkward.“

“I love Starbucks and I love this Starbucks. I am not sure the exact date but went in a couple weeks ago and was surprised how dirty it was!! Not like someone was messy but dusty like it hadn’t been cleaned in awhile. I have never been to a Starbucks that was messy or dirty. I would give 2 stars but I hate to do that when I know this is unusual! When I used the restroom, I felt like I was in a dirty gas station. The dining room was closed so you would think it would be even cleaner than normal. The coffee was great though!“

“The Tacos Aztecas are where it's at. I got three tacos, two were the Azteca style with nopales, cabeza and lengua. They were amazing. The third taco was a regular pastor. It was fine but not that great. Get the Azteca style ones. They were SOOO good.“

“This is one of my top picks among the dine-in restaurants in Columbus. They are consistently fast, the food is fresh, good-sized portions, and the service is usually great. If you ever have an issue, tell the man at the checkout counter and he will personally make sure that you are happy to be there. He once became our server when we waited 15 minutes with no one to help us at our table. I never knew who was supposed to wait on our table that time, but he stepped in! That was probably the best service I have ever had there! Anyway, I've tried several things and have liked most everything I have ordered. My preference is usually the street tacos with cilantro and onions and tomatillo sauce.“

“Place is great. kids love going or getting take out. Chrezoquaso, Rose compoil, Tamatla pork, Quesadilla Diablo, all on point can't go wrong. yes I know I butchered all the names.P.s. the quesadilla Diablo only get to go and reheat in a air frier or oven because it's a little Greasy. But it's so good because of the grease lol.Also I usually spend 50 but eat like 3 to 4 meals for 2 adults and 2 kids. So compared to other places good bang for buck.“
