“We always have a great experience at Taco Time and will keep going there we love it. www.aandnhandyman.com“

“My daughter and I ate here the other night, we thought the restaurant was closed due to no cars in the parking lot, and it was 8pm. But we were surprised, as the service was great and the food came super quick. It was really good, I'll be back to try more things on the menu.“

“Fantastic food, friendly waitstaff and great atmosphere. Did I say FANTASTIC food. I was ogling over the other items being served also.“

“Everything is very delicious, all the sauce, the chips, the roast meat, uhhh delicious, but the prices of the dishes are a little high, if you go as a family I think it is not convenient, much less with children, who can and do not eat, not yes. you go with your partner yes, well, I loved it!!

Parking: There are many stores and a lot of parking, I went with my semi, left the trailer at the truck stop and went to eat

Wheelchair accessibility: If there is, very good access“

“Delicious food and friendly people. Our current favorite Mexican restaurant.“

“Breakfast service is always perfect! My breakfast crunch wraps are always full and folded perfectly! Y'all should really have your morning crew train your evening crew how to wrap a crunch wrap though. Every single time I get one in the evening, they are flat and folded horribly. There is always a giant hole in the middle and its impossible to eat them without them just falling apart.“

“I had the Poblano Cashew Enchiladas, my husband the Gordo Burrito. We also had a Mexican corn appetizer. The flavors were outstanding, however, everything was very lukewarm. They offered to take it to warm, but it would have changed it too much I believe.“

“So so good and very nice people. Will go again.“

“So glad we found this place!!! Everything was amazing, from the fish tacos to the margaritas!!!“

“We have traveled all across America, moved to another state, and all I could think of when coming back to Washington was getting to eat at the Mayan and once again enjoy a peach margarita! The staff is friendly and still known to me. Jose and Nick are the best. Thank you, thank you!“

“Fantastic lunch the other day waiting on a glass chip to be repaired. got to talk to the owner and just had an overall wonderful time. Will be back!“

“Some of the best Mexican food and best tacos I've ever had. 10/10 recommend“

“It has definitely changed since I was last here ( pre pandemic). The setup is slightly different, but the food has not changed! They have however, added a lounge area, which is so cool! My husband and I ordered a vegan burrito to split.... and it was still too much food! Very generous portions, and the FOT staff are amazing!“

“Attentive service, plentiful, delicious and fresh food. They even have a great vegan menu. I highly recommend and can’t wait to go back!

Vegetarian options: Great vegan menu.

Dietary restrictions: Totally worked with me on my dietary restrictions. Since they make mostly everything, their were no hidden ingredients and they knew what I could eat.

Kid-friendliness: Great place for kids with a good kids menu.“

“One of my favorite new spots in Olympia. The space is beautiful and the food is stellar, classic Mexican dishes with beautiful fine dining presentation. The service is very welcoming and the staff are kind and attentive. Olympia needs more restaurants like this.“

“This Taco Time is the BEST!! I always order 3 hard shell tacos with meat & cheese ONLY & it is always filled with meat & cheese to the top other places give a very little amount of cheese & EVETYTHING is fresh. I live in Chicago now but came home in 2018 & got to Taco Time when they were closing they stayed open for us & made it very pleasant for my boys who made a mess! I come home every year & ALWAYS make it to the Olympia Taco Time!“

“This is one of my go-to spots for when I'm craving latin-american food (or street food in general) in Olympia. Great food, fair prices, friendly service. To top it off, there's a charming outdoor seating area, with two other food trucks and a cider taproom to try out.“

“Love this place, fresh flour tortillas are always delicious“

“Excellent food! Best refried beans I have ever had!“

“You make the best lingua and tripa tacos EVER! Gracias!“

“Tacos California Inc. catered our company event at the WA State Capitol Campus, and they were absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, Savili was quick to respond to my cold inquiry about reserving their food truck. She even invited me to a tasting of their delicious food and stayed in constant contact (in a good way) leading up to our event.
We were initially worried about serving over 100 people in a short period of time, but Savili and her team had the food flying out of the truck! The line never got too long, and people raved about the food. Tacos California knows how to make simply delicious food and serve it quickly without compromising on quality.
We even had people who were not invited to our event find out about how good the food was and leave their events to join ours. We will absolutely hire Tacos California again for future events. If you're looking for top-notch catering with exceptional service, look no further than Tacos California Inc.!
Thank you, Savili and team, for making our event a huge success!“

“I have stopped by here a few times for some tres leches slices and other goodies, and it's always been delicious. Last time we were there they told us they do full sized cakes by order now so my partner ordered me one for my birthday. Totally blown away by the cake, it was enormous, beautiful, and tasty!“

“The regular burritos are great! I could personally do with maybe a little more veg in them, but they're 100% a solid option. I have yet to try the other burrito option though, so maybe that's what I need to go for, as the other one comes with avocado & sour cream.The carne asada plate was also devoured quickly, so that's great too!“

“This is a great little store, lots of real mexican products here and fresh veggies. They didn't have fresh flour tortillas, that I was looking for. Not sure I am going to be able to find that in Olympia. They have a very large selection of yummy cheeses like oaxaca. The butcher has a ton of selection. I don't understand the negative comments on here. The butcher and cashier both smiled and were friendly, but I also can speak some spanish which always helps.“

“We do girls nights at West Side El Sarape on a monthly basis. Last night, the chicken was dry in the fajita salad that I ordered. Definitely over priced for a typical salad and some chicken. My bill was $61 after ordering 1 drink, fajita salad and to hold off on the order to go, fajita quesadilla. Instead, she brought it to the table a good hour before we left and said its still warm. She never asked if I was ready to have it made or even leave. When I got home, the to go order was not what I requested, instead, fajitas. Very over priced and disappointed. Did price changes happen on the menu that do not reflect online menu?“

“Absolutely the best Mexican food in Thurston County.“

“Excellent tacos. Carnitas were bomb, would recommend.I've been going back a few times in 2023 after finding it on a trip in 2022. Each time I loop past Olympia I end up at this truck.There is covered seating. Biggest downside is it's right next to the road, very accessible.“

“This is the only Taco Time in the Olympia area you should be going to. It's the one in the Hawks Prairie area and it's the best. They take you back to when Taco Time cared about quality and service. They don't skimp on your portions, and the food is always fresh like they advised. Every time I have visited I've always been greeted by the most friendliest staff! Will always go to this location even if it's the furthest from my home.“

“Loved the interior. I had the creamy garlic chicken with rice and black beans, husband the chicken enchiladas. We both loved the food very well seasoned and good portion sizes. Staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere. 10/10 will go again“

“They have a variety of dishes and for me everything is good.“

“Leaving a review since it surprised me. I must have come when the meat was freshly cooked because all my tacos were really good. For me you have to have well seasoned meat, a good salsa and good tortillas for tacos to be good. This place hit all those categories for me. I got the asada, cartitas and pastor. All super tender. They're tacos de olbligo so they're not huge. Street taco sized. Giving 4 stars because I would have liked more meat in each taco.“

“What a Taco Truck!Highly recommend trying ‘Loco Burrito’. Beefy and big sized, sometimes it lasts a day for me!Staff are friendly, priced reasonable. Condiments are readily available.The morning menus are quite awesome, too. American style with slight hint of Mexican flavoring!“
