Taco Bamba is always amazing and this location is great. It has a bar with happy hour and nice outdoor seating. Nice service too from many folks working here. A classic.

Best taco bamba in my opinion. Plenty of parking spots. Fast service. Food is goodVegetarian options: Depends on the menu, they have a coupleDietary restrictions: Ask the employee, they would be better helpParking: Open space parking lot, unique shopping center but enough parking spots if not the weekend or busy dayKid-friendliness: Clean and friendly environmentWheelchair accessibility: Not really accessible
The tortillas on several of our tacos were hard in spots, stale, not soft, hard to chew. Some of the meat was fatty, had a couple bites we had to spit out. It's fast casual, and our order took 25 minutes. People who had been in line behind us got their orders first. The music was turned up so loud you had to shout, gave a headache. Expensive for what you get.

Consistent quality always hits the spot. Food is quick to be made even when it's busy. Whenever I'm in the area, I try to get a meal here. Love the veggie options. As a non meat eater, it's great to have more than just one thing to choose from. Sitting at the bar is my preference. Their bartenders are friendly, cool, and on point with recommendations. I know it's got its haters, and it is on the salty side, but the flavor combos are on point, so just get a tasty beverage to balance that out. I've been a fan since their first location in falls church but this is the spot to go to for the bigger menu.
Food is ok, nothing special. The service is awful. In one case, my guacamole was missing and the servers ignored me trying to wave them down until someone finally stepped up. The ambience is miserable it has always been heavy metal at a high volume every time I have been there. These experiences have been consistent over several visits.

If you don't know about this place then stay away because I don't need the competition when I place my order.

So all that hype around this place… and OK, so maybe we went there on a wrong day at a wrong time - Friday night, around 5:30pm (which was still a happy hour I think) but it was one of the most unpleasant experiences we had in a long time. The place is very small (a couple of tables inside) — and so combine it with an EXTREMELY loud music, A LOT of people, almost no separation between the tables and the bar with a lot of loud-talking adults and you have a disaster. My drink was mostly ice with very little tequila in a small glass (again, probably happy hour thing), so that’s minus a point. A lot of take-out orders, seemed going a bit slow… Cannot emphasize it enough- the music was so loud, we felt like we should’ve brought noise-canceling phones with us and to order a drink at the bar my husband had to get soooo close to the barman that he won’t care to admit, lol. We just wanted to have something new, not necessarily traditional tacos and let me tell you - believe them when they say “hot” - they really are super ?️ !!! The mushroom one I couldn’t eat, it was so spicy. So if you like basic but very spicy food, you may enjoy it; we won’t be returning though.

This was my first time actually eating from Taco Bamba. I heard rave reviews from friends, but sometimes their judgment can be questionable lol so my new colleague is going and I decide to order a bowl. AMAZING!!!! Everything is fresh, delicious, and it feels healthy...is that even a thing? Okay I am making it a thing...a delicious gym in a bowl. I will be back here for more.
Food was good and the staff was really nice. My only issue was that the music was too loud and it took away from the dining experience. Besides that, I would really recommend. The mexican street corn was SOOO good!

Had to threw it away because it was too salty. It was not edible level. Falls church location is much better.
