This is a Tonawanda staple! An institution! A tradition! I don't know if I've ever had food here sober so my review may be a little skewed. This is definitely the best place to get food after midnight in the Tonawanda area. The steak they use on their subs is the chopped up kind - not the sliced kind. I prefer the chopped kind a lot. It's very greasy but in a great way. Their shoestring fries are great as well. All of their fries are great, really. You have to wait a little bit for your food but that's not a problem. It's also not the cleanest of places but if you're wasted and hungry, that's not much of a problem either. read more

Whenever I find myself in Tonawanda, I make sure to stop by Colosso Taco for their chicken fingers. They are some of the best I've ever had in this area. Crisp on the outside and incredibly juicy on the inside. I never even bothered to order anything else when I come. The place itself is on the small side and definitely has a dive feel to it. There are several arcade games and a pinball machine to pass the time. It's definitely a place to go after you've had a few drinks. If you aren't the drinking type, they have takeout so you won't have to stay for long. The service is quick and the guys who run the place are very friendly. Anytime I have to wait longer than usual they have always compensated me with a free drink or some fries. If you're craving some late night food after a few drinks, it's hard to beat Colosso Taco. read more

I ate the food here once when I was sober and had to give most of it to my dog. come here after 10 drinks and it turns into a 5 star feast for drunkards. Order a stinger sub hot with blue cheese, side order of mini tacos and shoe string fries. Those were the days.... read more

Went there for the first time today. Very friendly staff and great food! I got the stinger sub and it was delicious. I also like that this place is open late. Would recommend! read more

Colosso Taco - Stinger Sub. - Pizza Near Me - Tonawanda, New York

Great food Good if you have been drinking The staff could stand to be a little friendlier and perhaps pick up a rag or mop to clean up a little bit but I guess the hole in the wall feel is part of the appeal read more

absolute WORST customer service i have ever experienced. waited an hour and fifteen minutes for my food, when it got here half of it was missing. Gave them a call and let them know and they insisted that i was wrong. person on the phone hung up on me. Whoever works the night shift needs to find a job that doesn't involve customer service :) read more

I absolutely love this place's pizza. The wings are hit and miss. Taco salads are okay. Nice size but once I ordered the chicken option and it was appalling. Like they used shredded watery chicken from a can. Their saving grace has to be the taco pizza though. This is the type of item you end up craving a week later. Its like deep dish taco pizza. One piece will feed a small army. Service can definitely be improved but I've never had a serious issue. They need to figure out their tipping system though. Some ask on the phone some don't. But I don't like being pressured to tip if it takes longer or the driver is rude and asks for a tip. They run great weekly specials and are open super late. read more

The lady was rude and acted like she was doing me a favor and It reflected in the food which was mediocre at best. The place was empty so its not like they where overwhelmed. Was better with old owners. I've heard their place in falls is equally as bad. read more

I wish it was possible to leave no stars at all. I have ordered from them I would have to guess maybe over 100 times. I am a creature of habit I order the exact same thing every single time, a chicken finger burrito hot. On Thursday 6.20.19 I did just that but what I got was a shredded chicken taco. I called and said I think maybe I was given the wrong order, I got a shredded chicken taco and I had ordered a chicken finger burrito. "No, you were not given the wrong order, you ordered wrong on the phone, and if you want a chicken finger burrito you have to pay for that too, its not our fault" is what I was told. I thought maybe she was kidding and it was like a spoof, hahaa just kidding, come on back we will make it for you no problem, sorry about the mix up Sir! Nope, she was dead serious.. "Yes or no she said". Ya okay sweetie, right after purple monkeys dressed as Elvis fly out of my! read more

Same old reliable that it was 30 years ago. Beef & cheese burrito cannot be beat anywhere despite what a couple of these drunk snobs have posted. Makes Mighty Taco look like they are serving dog meat. Best taco place ever. read more

Whatever you order it's always good and fresh. It's been around for years. The only place nearby open late. If they mess something up they always fix it... love their tacos, taco salad,pizza,wings gotta try the mango haberno so good. I have nothing bad to say they stay open til 4am read more

While staying in Niagara Falls, NY we were looking for a mexican place to eat. This came up as an option, though a little out of the way. We were not very happy overall. The place is beat up, the employees were innatentive, and the food was nothing worth praising. It seemed that people that live nearby come in to get some food, but our impression was that it's not very popular. I'd pass. read more

Hands down the best late-night restaurant in the Tonawanda area. Whether you're coming home from the bar, a late shift at work, or just want to eat something late at night this place has always been exceptional. read more

Pretty dirty place, but their food isn't too bad. The food is pretty cheap and they have a big selection of tacos. There are cheeseburger tacos, stinger tacos, and even pizza tacos. The large tacos are pretty big, but I still need about three to fill up. Haven't tried their pizza yet, heard it's good. read more

I often heard of this place but never had the pleasure of a Colosso Taco until I started dating my husband. It's a tradition for us to go every New Years Eve. Now, I don't think I've ever had food from here when I've been completely sober, but I think I would love it just the same. There is something about a Colosso that's like no other taco. You would never guess by the looks of things when you walk in.....it's riddled with a few booths and video games up against the walls. The menu above the counter is old school and hand written signs advise customers of new offerings. They offer more than just tacos of course. There is a full menu of subs and other pizzeria food. There's nothing fancy about this joint. But, I dare you to try one......you will be hooked forever! read more

After years of hearing about this place from my friend, I finally got a chance to try it while visiting Buffalo for a wedding. The ambiance is a bit shady (but nothing bad), but the food was insane. Loved it. I wish there were a place to get chicken finger subs out West... read more

I never regret ordering from here. Great food, not expensive, good service! I especially enjoy their chicken wings! Although you can never go wrong if you order a taco! read more

It's a great place -- if you pick your food up and THOROUGHLY INSPECT IT first. I ordered my food at 10 o'clock. Apparently having a rush in Colosso Taco means your order is NOT important. After having my order read back to me, twice, they failed to mention that they had written the chicken dinner down wrong. So after waiting an HOUR for a half-hour delivery, I open my box and see my chicken -- not cover -- but DROWNING in barbeque sauce. Despite my telling them two times that I wanted my chicken PLAIN with barbeque on the side. I will not be going back here. It's bad enough it took an hour for them to get my food to me, in spite of me literally just living down the street (About a 10 minute walk, 2-3 minute drive). I'd hate to see how long it takes them to fix an order they fucked up in the first place. DO NOT RECOMMEND. Go to Wally's instead -- at least their delivery guys know the area. read more

Great food! Great owners that take pride in what they serve and care about the community. I worked there back in the day and still come there frequently. read more

Taco roll ups don't go with mozzarella stick sauce nice job colosso I'd rather go to the one in Niagara Falls on pine Ave!!!

This place is one of the few places you can go every time and get the same meal, greasy, calorie ridden, saturated goodness.

I don't understand the bad reviews on this place. Maybe you didn't like it because you were drunk?? I've been going here since I was a kid. I've loved it ever since. The staple for me is the hot beef contrasting with the cold cheese/produce. I would go here any day over mighty or Taco Bell for sure. It's not a place to compare to authentic Mexican restaurants. It's also a dive. I get that but every time I visit they are cleaning and the kitchen is clean. The burritos are my favorite. My friends and I text a pic of the place to rub it in each other's faces that we are going there. I'm dying to get the recipe to make the tacos at home. They serve good food. Period. read more

The worst. Better off getting a burrito from a gas station. Ordered here once and got cold tacos had to reheat in the oven. Tried one more time and got the same. One positive is at least they're consistant. If you want something horrible come here read more

they were at one time a great place to eat but not now I ordered a colosso pizza and it comes with olives told the girl three times no olives she even read the order back no olives had it delivered to work and guess what olives and its not half the topping it used to be won't eat there again read more

Colosso taco is good anytime of day. They have a great selection from tacos, pizza subs and more. Try them some time you won't be disappointed. read more

Went for a walk with my girl along the river and stoped by here for the first time on a Sunday around 6pm. Food was a decent price and tasted 7/10. Definitely could have done with out the attitudes from the workers there. It seemed like they didn't want to be there. read more

This place can not get their prices straight. Ordered a small chicken taco once and it was over $5(didn't mind) next day I ordered two and the price was around $4? Didn't make sense why each person working there makes up prices as they go along. The food isn't too bad but the attitudes of the employees definitely will be keeping me away from them. Good riddance. read more

Choosing to eat here was a colossal mistake. I wasn't expecting anything special, and we were in the mood for something kind of fast and greasy. We stopped in after a concert at about 10 pm on a Tuesday. The look the cashier gave us upon arrival was one of pure annoyance and disgust. She did not once smile, and rolled her eyes at us when we asked any questions. We really should have walked out at that point. We ordered a stinger, a fried shrimp plate, and a veggie taco. Our food took over a half hour to come out. We watched several groups of people get their food before us, Including our friend who was with us and ordered separately- her food came out about 20 minutes before ours. No explanation from the cashier, or even a simple "you're food will be out soon" was offered. The shrimp was tastey, and my husband enjoyed the stinger, however the taco was cold and inedible. We will definitely not be back, and I truly hope the cashier will consider a career path where she doesn't ever need to interact with people. read more

Great place to go for taco cravings. Not very clean though. They are open till 3 am which is great for me.
