A couple friends decided to check out this local little taco love spot because we also love tacos! It was a Wednesday night around 7:30. We walked into swirling lights, bass pounding and a full on musical rave…yet there wasn’t a single person there. We yelled over the music for a little while until we asked to turn it down. We ordered tacos and chips and guacamole. I tried the pork taco with pineapple which was good. The carne asada taco was decent. The restaurant is large and if it were full of people, the loud music would have been cool…maybe a Saturday night? Hopefully they can read the customer experience and alter their game plan…I’m giving 4 stars with a plan to go back and give them another try.

First I wasn't sure if they were open because it was the middle of the day and no one was there, but once I went inside the rest was history. I got the shrimp tacos and they were amazing. The presentation of the food was great and the service was nice. Highly suggest a visit. ?

2 jack fruit options only, both $6 per taco, both super briny. Wouldn't go back without some menu changes. Service was good tho.

There are much better options for tacos than this place. Go anywhere else,No manches. I'm born & raised in Mexico and these tacos are not good and very overpriced.The tacos: I got quesa-birria, my friend steak-You can only order 3 tacos at a time, no single tacos. (This is for delivery in-store may be different)-Tortillas we're crumbling and soggy, totally fell apart you will need knife and fork, (which they didn't include in to-go), this defeats the purpose of the tortilla.-street corn (9 pieces) - $11The pieces are small spears of corn and not very much in quantity especially at that price.-horchata $4You only get a small cup for that price and it's from concentrate and left bottom full of undiluted concentrate, not fresh made.I had decided to give this place a 2nd chance but was once again totally disappointed.I originally dined in the restaurant with my wife, we both agreed the food is overpriced and underwhelming neither of us would recommend it.My friend who ordered the delivery (steak tacos) when I tried them again for a second chance said he gave it a 5/10.Como un Mexicano la neta no rifan estos tacos mejor buscate otro lugar mas sabroso...

I hate writing bad reviews & I went bc I only saw the good reviews on happy cow for some reason. Tacos were $6 EACH with a 2 taco minimum. They only had jackfruit it still tasted very briney & had absolutely no flavor. I ordered agua de jamaica (hibiscus) it came in a margarita glass with a bunch of ice,tasted super watered down & had no type of sweetener which I finished in like 3 sips. Also no refills on drinks. Sodas we ordered were flat & I believe we were also charged for water that we didn’t get or ask for. My non vegan family got tacos Al pastor & said they were good & authentic but the price for ridiculous even for their vegan options as I’m sure a lot of us are used to the up charge ?

So we loved the atmosphere, it was inviting. The food was good, and the margarita was delicious. Service was excellent.Only issue is we went on Taco Tuesday, unfortunately there is a discrepancy in pricing and items with the on line menu versus the menu at the restaurant.We politely brought it to their attention but they were dismissive.We will give it another try, since it seems like a nice place to chill. They had a nice bar and the place was different, I like it. Can't wait to try the salsa classes. They only been there five months, so we will give it a few more tries.

Disappointed, to say the least. The wait staff was friendly and their drinks are amazing. Their food, however, left a lot to be desired. As a vegan Mexican-American, I love tacos, when I saw that their menu offered a variety of vegan taco options there was no other option but to drive an hour to check it out.I ordered the jackfruit pastor tacos ($16 for 3) and a side of rice, and beans ($4.00). When my food came out it was warm/room temperature at best - and to my dismay, they brought out white rice cooked in a rice cooker and canned beans and absolutely no flavor, just plain white rice. I couldn’t pick my jaw up from the floor.The tacos did not have the “pastor” flavor I was expecting, they had more of a weird cheesy flavor. Since the tacos were flavorless I asked for a side of salsa, they brought out a side of bottled hot sauce...? ? You can't imagine my disappointment.We tried to brush it off so we ordered their vegan oreo cookie cheesecake, I mean, what could go wrong, right? Wrong. To my disbelief, the cheesecake was still frozen in the middle - we couldn’t even cut through it. We sent the dessert back and asked for our check which ended up being $87. $87 for below-average food. Sadly we will not be returning.

Great vegan options with jackfruit and vegan cheese, brunch options, try the nachos. Restaurant itself kinda has weird lighting. Could use a paint job and some new lights. Would be good for takeout or a casual meal.

100% authentic, delicious, top quality food/ingredients, kind staff, and the best margaritas that always hit the spot. Yes!, you get what you pay for and it is worth it. We are SOO happy to have this quality restaurant in our neighborhood and what a fabulous addition to the rising 49th Street South Corridor. Whenever friends are in town this is one of the top spots where we take them. Support local! Support this family that chose to invest in our neighborhood. Support Tacos My Love! You won’t be disappointed. ?+♥️=????
For a taco place this place is super expensive! The vegan nachos were huge and really good but the tacos disappointed. The jackfruit still has the weird tangy taste that wasn’t properly seasoned and soaked out. We tried the vegan Carnitas and birria. The birria didn’t have the dipping sauce u expect to have. And 16$ they only give u the three tacos, no side of rice or anything or even free chips and salsa.My mango drink was great, I had them hold the alcohol bc I’m pregnant but it was the same price even without the vodka which is odd.

Some of the best food Ive ever had. I dont get all the reviews bashing the prices. Their prices are pretty in line with all the other quality restaurants in the area. If you don't like the prices you literally have the power not to eat there ??? Anyways, give it a shot. It was delicious.

Love their food.. perfect vegan food. However they could add soy products to their menu as well. I would go back there again just to enjoy their food. They have wonderful service as well.Update: I went to the restaurant again. Ordered guacamole- too salty. They could make it without salt and let the customer add if they wanted. This is the second time asking for the vegan quest dip and again they do not have it made. Kind of disappointing!
