JTN STORE - Tallulahs Taqueria

I was a regular at the Providence store, tried Jamestown today and was very disappointed. Two tacos were put in one small container, everything was soggy, with little to no ingredients. The burrito was very average. Please get better, would like to come back.

Love their burritos, they’re my favorite in the state, but they sure do make it hard to order them. From what I can tell they’re supposed to be open on a Friday night at the end of May (had to ask the Providence store when I was last there because there’s no way to find out when they’re open in Jamestown). The only way to order is to go online, use their app, or go order in person and wait 20-30 mins for food. The whole appeal of the app or online ordering is so you can order ahead and don’t have to wait. The app doesn’t work, nor does their online ordering system, and it is IMPOSSIBLE to get someone on the phone. This is 2 Fridays in a row when they’re supposed to be open for the season. I usually order from them weekly and wish the Jamestown store was open year round, but they’re making it really hard for me to give them business because it’s impossible to order. I’m posting this in hopes management will see it and consider regular updates to hours so public will know when they’re open, allow phone ordering or at least customer service, and better infrastructure or back end support for the app and online ordering. Sorry for ranting, sincerely, hangry burrito enthusiast.

The rice and several proteins are too spicy, and it’s either sit outside or takeout. I personally asked the owner to address the sad kids menu and received no response. Our small children have been disappointed countless times by food that is either too spicy or just too bland (items from the sad kids menu). We have also been disappointed by long waits to pickup food, and cold food when we get home. To boot it’s always been a tick expensive and it’s only continuing to rise in price. If you want a variety and have kids then look elsewhere for Hispanic or Mexican cuisine in RI….

Delicious!

Stopped by for a margarita, was very disappointed with the quality. For roughly a $11.50 drink it leaves a lot to be desired.

I’ve been frequenting this spot for a few years now. I am always happy with the food and service.

Eh. There's nothing to brag about. Good food bad service. They wouldn't give me an extra lid for my drink.

This place operationally is a complete disaster. It's constantly understaffed and the people working there are trying so hard and are so lovely and kind but they are just completely set up for failure. We've been coming here for years, even when they were just a little taco shack on Dutch Harbor and the service and quality of food has been in decline over the last few years, but our most recent visit has been the worst and we've sworn off this place, as well as sharing the total decline of this place with our neighbors.We waited 1 HOUR for two bowls and then when we brought it back home to eat, we found a METAL NAIL IN THE LETTUCE.To make things worst, it took FOUR separate calls (we were told our message would be passed on to management) and follow-up visits to the location over the course of two weeks to get a refund. There was no apology at all during this time and I am just appalled by the total lack of care and food safety at this place.

excellent staff great tacos, hidden gem

Staff was friendly. Tacos were good, but all the food was cold and soggy. Nacho chips were stale and for the amount you get, way overpriced. Margaritas were strong, but lacked flavor. The flavors of the beef and pork tacos were good.

Our first visit to Jamestown and happened fortuitously upon Tallulahs. Food was delicious & fresh; the margaritas were also tasty, not syrupy or over sweetened. Atmosphere is casual and low-key. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a casual spot to hang. Definitely will return when we visit Jamestown again!

The burritos have become like blended baby food. There was no crisp lettuce or distinctive flavors. It was like they threw the chicken, beans, rice and everything else in a blender and then placed it in a burrito. It was mush. This place use to be better.

I don't know what happened to this place. It was so good a couple years ago and the food feels thrown together and just does not taste good anymore. We keep trying but are so sad as this was a go-to spot!

We visited twice during our stay in Jamestown and was so impressed with the dishes we ordered! We used to live in California and miss the fresh Mexican food and veggies. The meat, rice, and beans were amazing as well. The churros were also incredible! While I enjoyed the pickled radishes, each time there were just a few too many slices -- it sort of overpowered the dish. Still, would love to return, delicious!

It was great! Glad they are back!
