13/09/2026: There is a better restaurant hiding in here... We came to The Taco Shop with absolutely no history with the place. No memories of how it used to be, no expectations based on previous owners, and no nostalgia to defend. Just hungry people and tacos. So this is simply about what landed on our table. We tried two burritos. The vegan version was unfortunately the weakest part of the meal. Rice, beans and tomato sauce wrapped in a perfectly okay tortilla — but the overall impression was basically tomato sauce and canned beans. It filled the stomach, but didn't give us much reason to remember it. The beef burrito was better. Perfectly fine, actually. But “perfectly fine” is probably also the most enthusiastic description I can give it. The tacos were where things became more interesting. The tempura shrimp was okay, although the tempura itself had a very familiar food-service feel to it. The pulled beef taco had plenty of flavour and was surprisingly juicy as a whole. Digging into the meat itself, however, it was a little dry and not particularly exciting. Still, there was enough going on around it to make the taco work. And then came the chicken taco. That was easily the best thing we ate. Juicy, properly flavourful all the way through and simply a good taco. More of that, please. We chose soft shells. They didn't crack or fall apart, but they weren't particularly soft and supple either. Somehow they managed to bend while still feeling rather dry. The nachos I left to my wife. I don't eat nachos. It involves my youth, nachos and a considerable amount of tequila. We don't need to say any more about that. Jarritos for drinks — exactly what you expect from Jarritos. No complaints there. Service was… quiet. Very quiet. The young guy behind the counter was perfectly nice and brought the food to our table, but the whole interaction had more of a counter-service feel than restaurant service. He spoke English and was extremely reserved. Nothing wrong with the service at all; just don't expect the staff to become part of your evening. So, three stars. Not because anything went terribly wrong. It didn't. But apart from that very good chicken taco, not quite enough went memorably right. And that chicken taco is also why I wouldn't write this place off. It proved that the kitchen can absolutely get it right: juicy, flavourful from the first bite to the last. If they can bring the rest of the menu up to that level, there is a much better restaurant hiding in here. I genuinely hope they do — because the chicken taco says they can.
