Chicken tikka taco was bomb and so was chicken and waffle taco. Although, it’s a bit sweet for my taste. The chicken was crisp and full of flavour.
Food is always great at Velvet taco, my interaction with the staff was blunt, they need to communicate better. I had to walk upstairs and down 4 times to get the correct code to use ladies room.

Food is so good! Like seriously I don’t write reviews but I had to let it be known portions are amazing, everything is well seasoned I really hope they don’t change & continue to serve quality food & quantities.

October 2025

Some pretty unique taco offerings. The price initially turned me off ($6 tacos?! bffr), but they are definitely high quality tacos. ESPECIALLY the kobe smash burger taco. Super juicy and flavorful. The quesabirria duo was good too, but the kobe smash burger was in another league of its own. Overall good place to try at least once.
