It's been several months since we ate here for the first time so I don't remember specifically what we ordered, I just remember not being impressed by the food or the service. I remember wishing we had gone across the street to Marble City Market instead.

Tasty escape from the usual chicken, beef, pork taco. Very creative menu. Very good beverage selection. Definitely worth a stop in Knoxville, TN.

The most recent visit i had to this place was completely different from my last visit. The menu was more digestive friendly and most everything is made of ingredients that don't contain any gluten. A fully gluten-free place except for maybe a dessert or two is super rare. The management and the servers were so fun and friendly. I couldn't believe I was in the same place as last time. What a delightful menu with lots of interesting flavors and tastes. The mole sauce is to die for. There's so many good things about this place. I can't wait to go back. You must try the empanadas.

Tako Taco food and service are top notch. I love their constantly changing specials and the house margarita is delicious! Their chips are amazing and the queso is sooo good. Perfect spot if you're headed to a show at the Mill and Mine.

First, let me just clarify that the ONLY thing I've eaten here is the chills & guacamole. So my opinion is very limited. However, I was highly disappointed with the quality and taste. It was bland and very watery.While I definitely do not recommend the guac, the staff was great; friendly, charismatic, professional, and helpful.

The staff at Tako Taco are its biggest asset, especially the bartender. Their drinks have a creative flourish with the flavor profiles to back it up. We found the food, though, to be just ok. We've tried all their tacos, and the only one worth ordering is the chopped roaster pig because of the spicy honey mustard sauce. Otherwise, their meat is bland and their flavor combinations are unremarkable. The tako taco is novel, but we wouldn't order it again, and we advise steering clear of the shrimp tacos. The queso with the crispy corn tortillas is definitely worth ordering; we actually went back the second time only because I had a craving for it. Barring another random craving, however, I can't guarantee we'd go back unless they revamped their menu. There are too many truly good places in downtown Knoxville to go back to somewhere just ok.

Super cute place with a great vibe. Drinks were great, not watered down at all. Food was great with the perfect sized portions. We shared their chips and queso & each got chorizo smash burgers with all the toppings and our side was their Duck Fat fried fiesta potatoes. Everett was our server and super amazing and attentive. Would definitely recommend trying this place if you're searching for a Fusion style restaurant. Don't sleep on that habanero honey mustard it is delicious! We definitely can't wait to return.

Right next to the venue for a concert we went to see. Easily walkable, nice atmosphere, tasty food, and incredibly fast service. I would definitely eat here again. We also got a delicious mocktail called the Dratini that I'd highly recommend. :)
