    Great food and drinks. My beans were so good I ate my husband's! Steak was seasoned well. Ingredients fresh! You can smell how fresh the michelada was when she brought it out. The aroma ah! No complaints here

    I asked for tacos de carne asada, with white cheese. Even stated queso fresco. Paid $7 for 2 really small tacos with nacho cheese ? Looks like a great place to drink. But first and last time I order from there. Probably the furthest from ACTUAL Mexican food I've seen since being in Arkansas. I only gave it a 2 star because the salsa verde was actually good.

    Birria en Consome

    I went to their Fayetteville local for takeout. I try to stick to low carb so I ordered the birria plate which comes with a side on onion, cilantro, consommé, and tortillas if you want. The meat had a little crisp to it and was very flavorful. Some of my favorite birria I have had so far in NWA. My dad ordered the quesabirria tacos and was also impressed. The staff was welcoming and the to go order was ready quickly.

    Great food! Birria is fantastic! Service is very good but they do get busy! The ultimate Mexican French Dip!

    Quesabirria tacos with chips, salsa, and consomme

    Don't sleep on this place! The best birria tacos I've had in this part of the country! Whether you miss authentic birria or you've never had it before, you should come here and help make this restaurant a neighborhood staple. We had the quesabirria. The meat is rich and flavorful, and the consomme is divine. The hot sauces are delicious as well -- look out for the green one, it's nuclear! My only small complaint is with the chips and salsa, the salsa was tasty but could stand to be a bit chunkier. Fantastic overall!

    Beautiful decor, authentic atmosphere

    Went here for a team building work lunch. This was my first time dining here and I really liked…read morethe decor and overall ambiance, but it was really busy and fairly loud inside. There were 8 people in our group and they ended up seating us outside which wasn't a problem as it was warm and sunny. Once seated our server took our drink order quickly and followed up shortly with taking an order for appetizers. Which also came out fairly quickly. Our server then took our entree orders. He returned three or four times to replenish/refill drinks for the females in our group but ignored me and the other male in our group, until we asked for a refill. Our entree's took about 20 - 25 minutes to come out and there were several minutes between the first and last to make it to the table. In the business district of the town where most of their lunchtime weekday customers are workers on lunch break they need to be getting the food out the kitchen quicker. As for the food presentation was nice. Everyone's dishes looked really fresh and appetizing. Two of our team had the shrimp taco's and they was so much moisture in them they ended up eating them with a knife and fork. Another two on our team had the Quesabirria. They said it tasted good but had more cheese than Burria. As for my own dish, I had the poblanos with steak, which is three enchiladas covered in a poblano sauce with a side of rice. The portion was a reasonable size but the steak was chewy and while it wasn't bad the poblano sauce just didn't impress me. It was just plain in flavor, with not much poblano flavor. Like I mentioned earlier we were seated outside. I was about two thirds the way through my meal and found a small black hair in the sauce. Where we were sat was pretty breezy so I cannot say if the hair came with my meal or if it was blown onto my food, but it was not the best end to what I would call a lackluster meal.

I ordered the chile relleno and my friend ordered a tamale and some chicken taquitos. My friend endorses the taquitos and reported that they were flavorful and crunchy. Salsa and chips are complimentary and the salsa was pretty decent. The tamale was okay, but not the best she or I have ever had. As far as the chile relleno goes, the salsa was flavorful, but the batter was pretty soggy all around. The rice was flavorful and had a great texture to it, though the frijoles refritos tasted like they were possibly from a can or mass-produced. The beans felt and looked like soup. I also noticed that the shredded cheese placed on top of both the chile y tamale was not melted. When reheated, the cheese held its position. Several birthday parties were being celebrated in the restaurant while we were there, and the staff and owner made sure that the birthday party crowds were celebrated by clapping and singing which was sweet and made the whole place feel festive! I intend to go back and try some other dishes to determine if some authenticity shines through other dishes/plates.

After a quick elevator ride up to the second floor of the building, the entrance to Taco is very quaint and welcoming. They have a very nice patio area with about 5 tables that overlooks the Main Street that runs through downtown Springdale. We were seated inside, and served very quickly. The queso dip was absolutely amazing, and the margarita flight was an absolute banger. The reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the aisle size and not being the most kid friendly. The aisles are quite thin and we got bumped a few times by passing patrons.
