    Funky dining room
    Steven B.

    The best description I can give of Cap'n Taco is "Old School", it has been there a long time and just seems like nothing has changed. A small store in which half is the take out counter and kitchen and the other half is a small dining room. The decor of the dining room has a bunch of old flying memorabilia which makes for a cool atmosphere. The menu is nothing special, an assortment of the basic Mexican items; tacos, burritos etc. I was there on a Thursday and they had a buy 1 burrito, get 1 at half off special so I went with a bean and cheese burrito and a crab burrito. The burritos came out fairly quickly wrapped in paper with little packets of salsa on the side. Both burritos were rather small. The refried beans were ok, but nothing special I was disappointed with the cheese, which seemed to be processed cheese rather then using real cheese. The crab was the the artificial crabstick, no surprise at the price, but still disappointing. Overall the food was decent, just not very flavorful or special. There are so many other options that I would prefer. I was especially disappointed to get salsa packets, clearly the cheapest, easiest and worst option. About the only thing I can recommend is that you stop in and check out the memorabilia in the dining room.

    Chicken California burrito and ground beef tacos

    If you are looking for cheap Mexican eats...this is the place! Went here on a recent weekday (Taco Tuesday no less!) with a co-worker to give this post a try. Given the day it was, of course I gave their tacos a try and threw in a California burrito for good measure. Table service was pleasant and efficient, and i also noticed they did a fair amount of take-out business as well. The theme of the interior is kind of like straight out of the movie "Top Gun"...tons of fly-boy memorabilia, pictures of airplanes (both old and new), lots of military stuff. Kinda cool! For lunch I had two ground beef hard-shell tacos and a shredded chicken California burrito. The tacos were served with several packets of taco sauce (that i did not much care for as they were on the sweet side) and the meat lacked any real zip/flavor so i would put them in the Meh-category...but they were only $0.79 so that is a big bonus on the cheap eats side. The California burrito was molten-hot, even almost all the way until it was completely consumed...that fryer they've got in the back must be a rock star! The burrito has a good amount of shredded chicken inside as well as a nice compliment of Mexican spices and melted (white) cheese. It was tasty and filling. My co-worker ordered a taco and the Conquistador burrito that looked to have everything but the kitchen sink inside as smothered in chili. He said it was really good, so that will be my "go to" next time here.

    Cap'n Taco has been here since 1976 and has always been the place to get great Tacos CHEAP and Delicious. Taco Tuesday is still under $1.00 and it's well worth it... Wednesday is Taco Salad Specials.. 0.89 for Taco Tuesday now still cheaper and better then Taco Bell. Well worth it if you're looking for some delicious food.

    Eh..okay... for starters, it's a $10 minimum if you want to use a credit card. I didn't really want to eat $10 worth of food but there wasn't anything else nearby, and I do enjoy a good taco. I ordered two chicken soft tacos, one beef soft taco, nachos and cheese, and a diet Pepsi. I thought the nachos had an odd taste, and there was something sprinkled on them, some kind of brown seasoning. The cheese tasted very oily and after a couple chips that was it. I threw the rest away. I was underwhelmed by the beef and chicken tacos. For one, they were half cold when I got them. and I just felt the flavor was bland. It was no different, or better, than what you can get at Taco Bell. I would have liked more selections of sauce, instead of the little packets they give you. I should have known when I walked into a taco place and saw all white people working there. Nice folks, but this is a one-and-done. I won't return. $12.00 = three tacos, nachos with cheese, and a diet Pepsi.

    Cap'n Taco is a cool little place situated on Brookpark Road. I came here with my brother for the $.79 cent taco Tuesday special. He got some of the hard shell tacos and I got the chicken California burrito. I really liked the California burrito, the chicken was perfectly cooked and juicy inside a deep fried shell with cheese. The hard shell tacos were basic tacos with meat, lettuce, and cheese. They came with packets of taco sauce which give the tacos a bit of flavor. The sauce is not spicy at all. My brother also got a side of rice and it was sort of dry and bland, nothing the taco sauce couldn't fix. The inside of the restaurant was colorful and clean. The people working were really friendly and happy which is always a good thing. Also, the prices are really great! Overall, we will return. There's a lot of other items on the menu we can't wait to try, especially the desserts.

    The Pancho's Southwestern Grille is located on Massillon Rd in Green. This has been a family…read morefavorite since I was a kid when their other location was off Dressler Rd in North Canton. One of my personal favorites is the Tex Mex Combination options. You can choose 1-5 items with a side of rice and beans on the dinner menu. If you go during lunch time until 3pm there is a reduced priced Tex Mex Combo menu with the choice of rice or beans. The Tex mex combo options include, but not limited to: tacos, enchiladas, flautas. My pictures show two of the Tex mex options ordered at our table. The one plate shows a Tex Mex 4-item: 2 flautas, 2 soft tacos, with rice and beans. The other plate shown is the pictures is: Tex mex combo 4- item: 4 enchiladas topped with jalapeño cream sauce including rice and beans. My personal favorite is 4 enchiladas: one chicken, one cheese, one beef, and one creamy seafood topped Jalapeño cream sauce. The jalapeño cream sauce is a must try. The sauce does have a jalapeño kick to it and may be spicier at various times. The longhorn colby queso dip is absolutely amazing. I highly highly highly recommend you ask for the queso to be extra hot (temperature wise). Just a tip: just because there is steam coming from the queso at the table doesn't mean it's hot to taste. Test with a chip or fork. The chips are phenomenal especially the saturated seasoned ones. Staff is always friendly and willing to give recommendations. I can say I don't think I've had a server who hasn't liked or been able to recommend a favorite. Panchos Southwestern Grille is a twist on Mexican food. If you are looking for traditional Mexican food, keep in mind Southwestern grill.

    The food was not for me personally. A little on the bland side…read more The pre-meal chips were seasoned which to me was not good. Some people though may like that. The lighting in the restaurant was pretty dim. Again some folks may like that ambiance but not for me. The chicken was a bit coarse vs tender but some chicken is like that. Service seemed a bit rushed.
