OH MY!! Let’s start with the queso and guac, amazing. The queso wasn’t runny, so it didn’t drip all over the table. For dinner, we ordered the Tacos de Canasta (shrimp birria style), have you ever heard of this!? Birria style tacos are [usually] always beef or lamb so when I saw shrimp, I had to try. I’m so glad I did. DELICIOUS! Packed with flavor! We also ordered the Moo Moo Tres (filet mignon with rajas). The boyfriend said these are the best steak tacos! From the food, to the service, to the atmosphere, we had a great experience.

Amazing experience. I always love to go to restaurants where you’re able to see the owner with a big smile doing what they love. The birria tacos were amazing, the tortillas were perfect.

Amazing experience at 13 Tacos and Taps! Hands down the best Mexican food I’ve had. We got the birria tacos and the Porky Asia, and both were incredible. The rice was super flavorful and fluffy, and the beans were hearty with chorizo mixed in. Definitely recommend getting those as sides!

The chef/owner came out and chatted with us a few times. He was so friendly and clearly passionate about his food. He encouraged us to try the guac (highly recommend) and even shared the history behind some of the recipes. You can really feel the love and care in every bite. We’ll definitely be back!

Best fish and shrimp tacos in town! We ate there for the first time and were NOT disappointed. Didn’t take pictures because I ate the food too fast! Phenomenal service from the hostess and bartender. We got our food to go. I was also to see they had Salty Turtle on tap to enjoy when we come back. We highly recommend and will be back!

Best tacos that I have had in a long time. Think I spend $200 first time being there. Met the owners as they came around and most polite people I have met. I will definately be going back over and over

I saw this place on Reddit and went to try it this past friday. AMAZING! the cocktails weee adorable (so aesthetic) the tacos were delicious, along with the chips and salsa (you do have to pay for the chips and salsa, but it’s worth it).
Great service, food came fast. do suggest making a reservation for the weekend days.

I LOVE 13 tacos and taps. Service is always amazing, food is consistently tasty, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. My mom and I have made this our regular dinner spot over the last year, thanks to Brittney especially. She is amazing behind the bar and truly cares about the relationships she has with her customers. She makes our dining experience 5 star worthy each and every time. Would recommend dining at 13 tacos and taps, especially with Brittney, a million times over.

This place is just pathetic. Servers were not welcoming at all, our waters were in a shot glass, you can’t make any changes to a meal you want it has to be their way and how they make it… nothing can be modified. You have to guess the prices since they aren’t listed. Someone in my party got steak tacos and they tasted horrible, very fishy. One of the servers was very selfish about the situation like it was the customers fault and not the kitchens. The AC was broken as well. Definitely will not be coming back here any time soon. Good luck!
