“Amazing food! The lady who works there is super friendly and service is always very fast. Cali native, so I know a great taco truck. Even though I'd love for them to have more and more business, I can't help but selfishly hope no more people move to this area! :P“

“The Taco Bell on robinson Rd in old hickory has a Great atmosphere,always on point with no corrections needed.I have a family of 6 so it means alot that you actually see some fast food places still take pride in what they do.This taco bell is probably the only fast food around here that actually gets the orders right.“

“So delicious. We’re from out of state and we’re looking for a dinner away from the center of Nashville, that wasn’t a chain. We literally saw it on Google maps right before we passed it and decided to stop. SO glad we did. I’ve been missing the good pupusas I used to get in NW Arkansas, and was so happy when I saw them on the menu. We also had a sope al pastor, chorizo tacos and a new-to-us dish called pollo con tajadas. I recommend ALL of them.“

“I didn't do the food truck, I tried the new location off of Saundersville Rd next to the gas stations.....SO GOOD! My husband moved from KY when we got married and they had a place like this there but we have been unable to find a similar one here. 10 out 10 would recommend!!!“

“We enjoy eating at Dos Margaritas! Great food and friendly staff! They are also great neighbors.“

“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!!“

“Went to Mercado just to try something new and I was very impressed. It was during the afternoon so it was too hot to be outside, but the inside was great and comfortable to be in.

Food: I had the queso and chips for the appetizer. 5/5
I also had the oak-smoked brisket with the fries. 4/5 (the fries weren’t that good, but the brisket was GREAT)
The +1 had the Fajitas with rice and beans. 5/5.
The food was fresh and hot.

Service: We had the benefit of going when there was a lot going on, so our server was very attentive, professional, and friendly. The food came out quickly.

Atmosphere: Really vibrant and relaxing. Great place for an afternoon meal or dinner date for sure.

What really stole the show, was the bartender the drinks were PERFECT. It didn’t taste watered down, it was definitely a drink drink. Cheers to the bartender!

9/10 overall would recommend and tell a friend“

“I woke up starving and there was nothing to eat in the fridge.

I hit Google maps for the nearest open place to eat within walking distance and this place pops up.

Don't let the Shell station fool you, this place is legit Mexican taco stand type food. Trust me, I know, I live in MX part time and this place makes it right. Fresh ingredients, home salsas, simply amazing.

If you're looking for real MX cafe style food at a great price this is it.“

“Authentic Mexican options full of flavor. Fair pricing, big portions, great service. It's a little place, but the experience was great. Bright and vibrant on the inside.“

“Stopped by for breakfast today. The lady behind the counter was so nice and extremely helpful. She was very attentive and patient which made my first visit very welcoming. The burritos were huge and they did not skimp on anything. The horchata was delicious and very well balanced. It was cold but not watered down like a lot of other places. They have a little cold bar with various toppings salsas, fresh made hot sauces, radishes, lime, jalapeños, cucumbers, and you get warmed chips too. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu.“

“I door dashed the Quesabirria with guacamole added, and a side of Rice and a Churro. It was so amazing I didn't even think about taking a picture once I smelled the food. The Quesabirria... Wow. Loved it. The Churro had a strawberry jam type of filling, which I wasn't expecting but I ended up loving it anyway. This was my first experience with them but it DEFINITELY will not be my last. SO GOOD. 😋 Highly recommend this place!!“
