50 Best Taco Restaurants in Nashville

The first day we tried it, the girl in front told me I would be back, and she was right. We came back three times; the food was great, the price was right, and the customer service was amazing.“

“We are at BarTaco Nashville in 12South and while I’ve been there many many times, tonight was my husbands first time. He has a lemon&lime allergy. When we alerted the waiter of this to make sure we weren’t ordering something with them in it, he confirmed a couple items we planned to order would need to be mine since they had lime. Then 2 separate managers came to our table to double check the allergy and need. Primarily to confirm tacos ordered where some ingredients also had lime. They were so attentive and made sure that his food came out on a separate plate with no lime or lime garnish. So incredibly impressive how much they cared his experience was healthy and positive. Much thanks to the staff at 12South for superb customer service and care!!“

“Boyfriend and I came to Nashville for the first time for an airsoft tournament and only had the day, so this place checked all the boxes when it came to deciding what to eat and make the best of it. Was not a major fast food chain, their East truck happened to be close to where we were attending, offers low prices, and delicious food! After experiencing I’d note there’s also easy parking, a welcoming environment, fresh ingredients; I had carne asada fries and two chorizo tacos. 100 out of 10 would recommend.“

“Pie Town taco truck came to our American Legion Post 82 for a private event last night. I had a few tacos and the rice. Absolutely delicious. Great flavors. Friendly staff!“

“These were some good tacos I’ve had in a while. My absolute favorite was the BBQ taco, it was packed with so much flavor and so juicy! The steak taco (tender) was good as well as the pollo (it was ok) but the BBQ taco was the highlight of the meal. I also ordered a asada quesadilla and it was delicious with the green sauce.I wish I was given more limes. The tortillas was dry but when you top it with the sauce everything came together.Very clean food truck! Was impressed on the cleanliness for it to be located outside a gas station. 9.2/10“

“Great food always get the lengua tacos,this time I tried the torta and it was really good!!“

“Very cool place with delicious food and friendly, helpful staff inside Nashville's Assembly Food Hall. In the multi story food hall, you can get gourmet grilled cheese, poke bowl, pizza, drinks and desserts... but the outstanding favorite for me is the delicious Chilangos!
Several varieties of tacos on the menu, and quesadillas with different meats or veggies, but you can't go wrong with los nachos! A heaping pile of tortilla chips layered with cheese sauce, verde salsa, pico de gallo, and your choice of meat. It is very filling and flavorful, with a medium degree of heat from the diced jalapeños in the mix.
Very friendly people delivering fast service. Even with a consistent line of people, I think my meal took 5 minutes or less to arrive. Also the Food Hall is an enjoyable environment to find seating inside or outside, in a quiet spot or in the midst of people mingling and visiting. The Assembly Hall offers a convenient spot for a variety of food choices, even if one person in your group loves Mexican food, like I do, and someone else wants to try authentic pizza, or an Asian meal, etc. An enclosed seating area with plenty of fresh air and a team of hardworking staff do a thorough job keeping the place clean!
Visit Chilangos for smiling faces and delicious Mexican food - then you'll be smiling too! 😉“

“Great tacos and good customer service!“

“Velvet Taco satisfied my need for tacos!
I appreciate how they have vegetarian options that are creative and delicious - if I have to eat one more mushroom or grilled veggie taco I will scream.
The Nashville Hot, Fried Cauliflower, and Paneer tacos are all delicious - my favorite was the cauliflower.
The nachos (sans brisket) are also tasty and I highly recommend adding guac - their guac is very good.
For 5 tacos, nachos, and elotes we spent less than $50 for a full dinner for 2. The food came out fast and you can take it to your desired seating within the food hall and enjoy.“

“Had an awesome meal tonight (tacos) with friends! Our server Sarah was terrific! I highly recommend it!“

“We had a little extra time at the airport and grabbed a great meal at Vino Fiesta. Nahom was super attentive, engaging, and predicted our needs before we had to ask. He made recommendations to fit our dietary needs and it was super tasty. We’ll try it out again next time we are coming through.“

“Had an awesome time with friends. It was great really look forward to doing it again.“

“My bash grew went to the market and discover taco chela we had the best shots ever bartender is a pro.“

“Unbelievable tacos inside Bar sovereign. Can't reccomend this food enough these guys kill it. Food came quick and everything was amazing. Got the sample box to try everything and I had to go back for more it was so good. 12/10 food and service.“

“This was a hidden treasure this was the best soulfood I ever had in Nashville TN. The only thing that was off was the fact that I was served more bones than meat on my oxtail sweet potatoes and macaroni and cheese were the best.“

“I've traveled all over Mexico and I speak Spanish. When I found this place, I honestly felt like I was on the street in Aguascalientes or some place similar. Now be braced people. This is not what we think of when we go to Las Palmas or any other conventional Nashville Mexican restaurant. This place does NOT cater to gringos. It is 100% true Mexican and this is where the local Mexicans go to eat. Even the help doesn't speak English, so take your translator app. Seriously, for anyone that would like to know what it's REALLY like to eat in Mexico, this is the place. And the food is fantastic. There will be Mexican music playing on one end of the place and a Novela on the TV at the other end. The other customers will be Mexicans complete with their work clothes and straw western hats. I love it here and I promise that I'm going to be a regular customer.“

“Best quesadilla I've ever had!!!“

“Special food with fast service with outdoor dinning. Be sure try out all six places to get the full experience.“

“The best place to eat in Nashville. No one comes close to these tacos.“

“Pie Town taco truck came to our American Legion Post 82 for a private event last night. I had a few tacos and the rice. Absolutely delicious. Great flavors. Friendly staff!“

“Hands. Down. My. Favorite. Place. In. Nashville.

The tacos were so good that I made it a point to visit again before leaving. I was able to try all (4) tacos over the course of two visits. The Asada were my absolute fave, especially when adding a little of that homemade green sauce on top.

Having traveled and lived in many states across the US, it was a pleasant surprise to find a vegan taco shop that reminded me a bit of my SoCal roots.

While my research for restaurants in Nashville were primarily focused on vegan options and proximity to the conference site, I was delighted to partake in the unexpected atmosphere of this Farmers' Market. Between the great food, eclectic selection of venders, and eco-friendly set up, this Farmers' Market was a big highlight of my trip. I would highly recommend to other traveling professionals, especially if you are attempting to grab a bite with others who have different dietary preferences.

It was also a huge bonus that the Bicentennial Capital Mall State Park was right outside.

I will always go out of my way to visit Succulent Vegan Tacos when in Nashville. It is just that good.“

“I always get the pollo a la creama with a large side of cheese dip w/ chips and it’s always sooo good! Definitely worth the money, everything is fresh and they have great customer service.

Parking: Shared parking lot with the gas station“

“Great food! Authentic Mexican. large portions! Fast service!“

“It was good. There are two picnic tables in the sunoco parking lot. The food was good. Rice and beans were good. The only thing is the language barrier, so if you are bilingual, that's plus. But they still can understand you. Cash only.“

“It is located inside the gas station. When you walk in, you want to go to the left. Now you have your cashier in front, and to the right, you'll have the options yo get snacks and drinks like any other gas station. If you want a hot meal. They do have, but if you want a little more for your money, I do recommend eating here. The prices are good and the food will put a smile on your face.“

“great food...great service!“
