The food is pretty solid, but the drive thru is a nightmare. I usually get the enchiladas with chips and salsa and chips and queso. The restaurant is slightly gross, but I mean big families take their millions of kids here and they're always screaming and making a mess (not that it's the restaurants fault.) but despite all that I still enjoy their food.

Amazing food. The barbacoa was amazing. Service can't be beat. Friendly and fast. Attentive. No picture because I ate it so quick. Delish. Try the Low carb plate with barbacoa!

Place was the worst! We have been here few times but this time definitely made it our last!! Waited an hour and a half JUST for tacos and when we finally got our food it was disappointing! Definitely won't recommend unless you want to be held hostage!!

I have been eating at Mr. Taco since I was small, and never had a problem with them. Chips and salsa are always super fresh! i love going to grab some breakfast tacos on the weekend with my family. crowd levels can get out of control on weekends, and wait/drive through staff does their best to accommodate. The parking lot gets pretty packed and can be tricky to maneuver, but that is due to location and the fact Mr. Taco is not a huge restaurant but very popular. There is additional parking in the back, but everyone tries to get a spot close to the entrance. Mr. Taco is a hometown favorite for me, and I will keep giving them my business.

We stopped on our way home to Houston, we were looking for something else besides BBQ, well we found it, this place was the best home cooking, just like grandma used to make. The service was great, everyone was very friendly.

DON'T STOP - Driving through and looking for something that looked "less big box or chain". This place has potential via its location and it's embarrassing that it looks as poorly kept on the inside as it truly is. I wish we had checked reviews first. Service was ok. Food was terrible. No flavor. Nothing authentic about the food that came to the table.

if you go through the drive-through make sure you check your food before you leave, on top of being so expensive! they charge extra most of the time they do not add the sides you order and still change you for it!!! . They have messed up my order four times already. I will never come back to this place ever again! They do this to every single one ! I talk to the owner and it seems like he didn't even care all he care about is making money. Still cannot understand how this place is busy in such a small town, and with a very high price meals they're not even worth it !

I know this post may cause some locals to be upset as Mr. Taco has been a favorite of many for a while but after visiting this evening I will never be returning. As we sat down to have dinner with our family and on our second serving of tortilla chips sitting right on top of a chip was an object that to the naked eye looks exactly like a rat dropping. My 5 year old daughter actually grabbed this chip and showed it to me thankfully before biting into it. I took the chip from her and my mother removed it off of the chip and onto a napkin. She smudged it a bit with the napkin and it smeared. (As shown in picture) . We brought this to the attention of a waitress who was disgusted but stated she didn't believe it was a rat dropping because it wasn't very black but likely a bug but still showed disgust. (As if this was much better). The napkin with the dropping was left with waitress but I eventually requested it back because it just didn't sit right with me. We chose to keep our order in place since it was late and we still weren't sure if this was in fact what it appeared to be (we eventually regretted this). Our table was the table closest to the bar area which was closed to the public for the evening. The occasional staff member would go back and forth inside this area which could be seen by customers as it has a glass door and several windows. At the end of our meal and while paying we sat and talked a bit while waiting for our card to be processed and 3 of us saw a rat in the bar area running and going underneath the fridge. Total shock but so disgusted because this just confirms our suspicions that likely it was rat dropping on our tortilla chips! We notified our waitress who had already informed us that the manager was not on duty but would be in the morning and we could contact her then. She apologized deeply but we know it isn't the staff's fault. I will be contacting the manager at Mr. Taco in the morning to address this but also the health department to see if they can test this napkin with dropping to confirm whether or not it is what it appears to be. I'm beyond disgusted. Both my kids, myself, my mother and step dad ate the chips. My mother was visibly disgusted and threw up outside their restaurant. Not to mention they have at least 3 rat boxes outside of their building so it's clear they know they have an infestation problem. Just beware, as we get more information I will update this post. ***Update*** State licensed, well known and reputable pest control business in San Marcos, TX has confirmed from what the inspector can see that it was rodent droppings. Even suggested to the type of rodent it may have been, Norway rat. SMH! Local health inspector has been notified, investigation to follow. *** Last Update*** City health inspector performed an inspection on 11/29/22 and I was informed of their findings. Many violations, confirmed presence of rodents, two live rodents stuck on glue traps in kitchen, rodent droppings and rodent dropping contamination in storage area where to-go containers, Styrofoam, etc., are held. Restaurant was provided with a number of compliances that must be found met upon re-inspection on 12/2/2022.

Gotta love the drive-thru especially on a Saturday morning. The breakfast tacos were tasty and filling. They definitely load that s***** up. Pico de gallo has a kick since they have jalapeños in it. They give full strips of bacon and slices of avocado. Definitely come with an appetite you won't be disappointed.
