0 stars if I could. Besides the tacos tasting like absolute trash, the employees also suck. We got our food and had to wait an additional 5-10 minutes for the employee to pour a pre made drink when nobody else was here because of how stoned he was. Then 5 minutes to figure out how to ring up a side of sour cream because the tacos were more dry than the Saharan desert, which the sour cream didn't even help with how bland it was. Anyways, rusty taco is a hell no taco go next door instead. The beef tasted like an entire gallon of salt was poured on top of it.

Shout out to the staff. They saw a mom with two little kids and got that queso out to us immediately and before the rest of the food was ready. Many thanks! Also, the queso is fantastic.

Tacos were cold, quality was low and taste was bland. $4-$6 per taco and it was not worth it.The ground beef is in very large chunks and it was filled with gristle and it was cold. Very little seasoning.The fish tacos smelled off and it was soggy probably due to the oil not being hot enough or it was reheated.The chicken tacos used dark meat and that was still cold as well.The guacamole, flavor wise was good but there were brown chunks.The steak fajita tacos didn’t have much flavor and all you could taste was the oily green peppers.Lastly, the tortilla shells leathery and tasted like what you’d get right out of the package from a grocery store.Pretty disappointing. Items were served cold, bland flavor, and low quality meats. I see other reviews have had the same experience here and I wish I knew what it tasted like in its heyday but now, I would not recommend.

Great taco restaurant for a quick bite. If you are a fan of a variety of tack meats and toppings, this is a place for you.The service was fast and the staff was pleasant.I enjoyed my food and the atmosphere was nice.As a note: the price you see on the board is for a single taco. The tacos are on the small.side, so plan for more than one during your order.I will go back.

Awesome tacos!!(Addendum to my first review) I ordered a fajita to go on New Years Eve night. The bowl had hard clumps of rice in it (probably old) which made it hard to eat. The toppings were sparse. The worst part is, I paid for guacamole but they forgot to add it to my order, even though the receipt clearly says I paid for it.I have sent 2 emails to this establishment but they have gone unanswered. I was sent a text message the night of my order, asking me to answer 2 questions about my experience for a chance to win $100. The link does not work, instead giving me a Uh-oh! message.I won't be back.

The tacos either had no flavor or too much salt.

I had the Rusty Taco and chorizo breakfast Taco. The corn tortilla for the Rusty Taco was cold and felt like they just pulled it out of the package. The filling was okay but the Taco fell apart because of the cold tortilla. The breakfast Taco was very salty. Tacos from Taco bell would have been a better choice. The tacos on the menu were not traditional. They failed to improve or enhance the taco.

We order here for lunch as a company and didn't realize the St Paul location was closed. No biggie, we pick up the food and go on our way. The only problem was they didn't give us half of what we ordered. One person was missing an order of nachos (but they gave us the queso for food we didn't receive??) and any add-ons we had also weren't in the food. It may seem like we're just complaining over little things, but having to pay extra for things we don't get and having food missing can really wreck someone's afternoon. Definitely disappointed.
