Reviews for Taconeta in El Paso, TX
Food was good. It wasn?t busy when I went however, by the time I left, there was a line waiting to get inside to place their... orders ordering is à la cart. One taco per order so order more than one. the drinks were decent and the bar area could be alittle bigger, but it was OK. you place your order and they give you a number to take to your table and then they bring the foodout to you Overall the food was good and I?ll visit again if I?m ever in the area.

It was a little difficult to read the boarded menu at the entrance. Some of the words were smeared and tiny. Would prefer to... have menu in hand. Perfectly priced food. The service was good, except for having to stand outside to order our lunch. Would notlike to stand there in bad weather elements. The staff was very nice and always smiling. Helped create the positive vibes. Choseto sit inside instead of the patio to avoid the passing car fumes The food was very tasty except for the quinua salad a littlebland until we added some of their salsa! ???? I especially liked the fish tacos and sweet potato wedges. My taste buds lovedthem! Nice bar and good drinks. Not a bad Taco establishment! I will be back next time I come downtown. Read more
Try everything..... nothing has ever disappointed. Yes you wait in line outside to order, yes they bring you your food as it's... made, not all at once. These things make it unique, it's neat waiting for the next part of the order....kind of a what's next?I don't knownif this is normal, or just how it happened since we ordered a lot of different items, bit it was cool. Great staffamd service...well minus the one gentleman talking on his phone when he dropped off the mushroom taco.... but easily overlooked.Didn't change how great that taco was. The sweet potatoes were amazing, so unexpected. The char on them makes them amazing, thenut salsa makes them out of this world! Read more
Shrimp, fish, saudero, and chicken tacos. Girlfriend loved the fish tacos. Great flavors all around. My favorite was the shrimp... taco. Soft tortillas, crisp cabbage. The batter on the fish and shrimp is light and helps augment the flavor. Bummed theydidn't have horchata as we LOVE it here. Next time. Read more
Had to get some tacos before boarding a flight in the afternoon, so Taconeta was an obvious choice for us. The tacos were... amazing, and they had side options that everybody liked. Definitely try the fried green beans. It sounds weird but it?s to diefor. Portion sizes were about what I expected for this food concept, everything was flavorful, and they had some greatdrinks. Only thing I didn?t like was the outside order situation which forces you to order outside on the patio before walkingin, potentially waiting in a line in the hot Texas sun. Read more
Unimpressed. Pros and cons... Cons: I was just expecting to get a meal and feel satisfied but it's cocktail hour style portions... no sides. Hey I'm a big boy who has to run a tab on food in these places. The other thing was it's not family oriented. Don'tbring toddlers or picky children there's not much you can order for them. Pros: On the positive note. We found that the ambiencewas very nice and the drinks are worth returning to visit. Order the hibiscus tea. Next time I will try new drinks and thedesserts. Maybe I'll have a better experience. Read more
One of my favorite places to stop and have authentic Mexican tacos. The ambience, music, and food is great. It?s like walking... into a eclectic restaurant in Mexico City. I recommend the sopa azteca, elote, and fish/shrimp taco selection. Read more
