Korean tacos had a bad balance. The beef somehow tasted more crunchy than like beef and the ratio of pickled veggies/salsa to meat was off, needed more freshness to deal the crunch from all the beef? Ended up just wading the top of the tacos to get the balance and leaving the rest. Not good tacos

This place is fantastic in every aspect. We got the street corn app, chicken and Al pastor tacos, and cocktails. All were amazing! I could rant about it all, but the flavor and char on the chicken was mind-blowing! Service was exceptional and food came out super fast. As we dined, we admired the beautiful decor and wall paintings. Great atmosphere, great service, and amazing food. Don’t miss this spot!

I have been to Tako probably 50 times since they opened. A solid choice and I am always grateful they serve food on the later side when most restaurants are shutting down at 9pm. My one wish is that they would offer a vegetarian taco as one of the daily specials because the mushroom one on the menu is not their best work. They had a carrot taco that was divine - bring it back forever! Subbing potato for the meat in the other tacos is offered as an option. Always good service.
