Today I was in Topeka from out of town for a medical appointment and finished late. Taco Tico has always a favorite since the 70’s so when I’m near one I try to stop by. I got there just after 7pm and there was a sign on the door saying that the dining room was closed, so I asked the person locking the door if it were possible to go ahead and use the dining room as I am traveling and don’t have much luck eating in the car. A lady quickly appeared at the door and said go through the drive through and started laughing. Taco Tico might as well shut the doors forever because this is a sign of a company near its end, well especially for me!

The food was okay. The building and seating were very much in disrepair. It was very sad. The employees were nice, but in a rush to close even though it was 7:30pm and customers were still coming in.

It's a little outdated but decent food for the price

Fast food mexican restaurant that's been around for decades. Food hasn't changed a whole in that time but that's good.

Pretty good! Definitely not super authentic, but the food is good and the prices are great! Salsas aren’t awesome though, just not my style.

Food was cold and very little hamburger put on my taco burger and tacos also my tostada's were stuck to the wrapper, and the buns were stale.
I do not know the name of the woman who was working the register when my grandmother and I stopped in, but she was so lovely and kind! We did not realize the lobby closed at 8. It was 7:55pm. Instead of asking us to leave, she offered to ring us up so we could take our food to go rather than wait through the drive through. Super kind & quick service!

This is the only location that I know of, and we have enjoyed their tacos for the last 20 years. They have a small dining area, but they have an ample menu with plenty of options to please everyone. Our favorite is the crispy tacos. Unlike other fast food Mexican food places, they don't charge you more for the tomatoes. They actually fill the taco shell with meat, lettuce cheese, and chopped tomatoes. The prices are very reasonable and they have good taco sauce. My only complaint is that they got rid of the salsa bar. I am assuming that was due to Covid. This is a Topeka treasure, so I hope that more people will try it. It's definitely better than some of the more expensive Mexican restaurants in Topeka. Plus, you get more food for your money. Great for a family on a budget!
The food was pretty good service was really good The atmosphere wasn't bad either and we go there The prices are decent I do suggest that they put more toppings on the food I had chili cheese burrito and it have very little chilly on it and I had some other things I have ordered and the toppings are just very little other than that they're good
