Reviews for Velvet Taco in Fort Worth, TX
Fire! So many unique options. The Nashville hot tofu was bomb. I had the cheese masala taco and the flavor was good but not my... favorite. I wish I had more room in my stomach to have more cause I wanted to try them all. Read more
The velvet taco has some excellent and creative rakes on the classic taco format. The chicken and waffle taco combines crispy... fried chicken with a pressed waffle stepping in for the tortilla. It has a sweet maple aroma paired with the savory chicken andsauces. The Mexicali shrimp taco is refreshing with fresh salsa and Baja sauce paired with seasoned shrimp. Read more
Loved it! The vibe, the food, the ease of it. While it has plenty of seating, this is not sit down. Order at the counter and... wait for your name to be announced. These are not "traditional" tacos, but inventive and amazing use of the concept. With about4-5 offerings in each protein category: pork, beef, chicken, veggie, there is something for everyone! Ingredients tasted freshand flavorful. I tried two different tacos, the shrimp and brisket and couldn't decide which one I was more obsessed with. Theelote was creamy and well balanced without too much of anything to mask the flavorful, crisp corn. Three hard drinks on tap anda large selection of canned beer, including many local brews. This is a chain, but doesn't feel like it, in all the best ways! Read more
Being from California, there is no shortage of Hispanic and Latin flavors from the northern side of California to the southern... end. On my first trip to Texas, this is where my friend took me to get a taste of the flavors with a twist. From the outsidelooking in, this location doesn't look like much. Parking lot is tiny and the storefront itself. But walking in, I waspleasantly surprised. The layout is perfect for the spot however the downfall is that it will get packed, so arrive early orprepare to wait until seating is available. But there is also outdoor seating as well. Everything on the menu looked great butwe settled on four tacos: chicken and waffle, rotisserie chicken, steak, and the salmon. All of them were perfectly seasoned. Iwas really excited for the chicken and waffle and when it came out, very impressed with the shell which was in fact a waffle.The syrup on the chicken was perfect. The only thing I was upset about was that the shells broke apart so easily. This makessense because the tacos were loaded and soaked with flavor. But the one item that stole my heart...now that's the appetizer, theone and only elote x chips with cheese. Great cheese with the sweetness of the corn and the saltiness of the chip.Genius. Definitely a must try. Not in Fort Worth? Don't worry they have locations in Atlanta, Illinois, North Carolina,Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas of course. Read more
I love velvet taco so much. I take a flight from NJ to eat here. This place is amazing. The drinks are absolutely delicious. The... variety of tacos is plentiful. So many veggie options Read more
I have an issue when I?m served a plain taco that has a huge chicken bone on top. It?s not like it was the fastest thing to get... an order out here to not notice that. I?m not sure if he was the manager or not and didn?t catch his name he did rectify thesituation and made me new tacos, so I commend him for that. My other tacos were delicious. I recommend the taco of the monthwhile you can get it was a honey chipotle chicken. Also the beer bartered cauliflower was top notch. Their hot sauce could usesome major improvements, unfortunately that?s gonna be more of a corporate call. Read more
Tacos were fantastic. The menu is diverse, blows away any other taco shop I have been to. Fresh ingredients and large portions... compared to other places. The red velvet cake was great also. Not a ton of seating or parking but even when busy we were able toseat 5. Will definitely go back to try more. Read more
I absolutely love this place. The staff are incredibly nice, the food is always flavorful and high quality, and you really... cannot go wrong with any menu selections. My personal favorites are the Crisp Tots and Local Egg, shrimp and grits taco,Mexicali shrimp taco, brisket taco, and the cauliflower taco. Also, make sure you get their elote corn! To finish it all off,you can't go wrong with their red velvet cake (pic attached!). Special shout out to Madeline, Stephanie, Jason, and Luis foralways providing friendly service and making our lunch/ dinner special. :) Read more
