Grilled shrimp tacos with cilantro rice and black beans
Ashley S.

I stumbled upon Heirloom Taco while looking for another restaurant that ended up being closed. So glad I found this place! My friends and I were able to order and sit down to eat right before they closed. The associates were super nice and even though they were nearly done with cleaning, they welcomed us and didn't rush us. I ended up ordering the grilled shrimp tacos and black beans with cilantro rice. My food was well seasoned and the ingredients tasted fresh oh and the shrimp was so delicious. Whatever sauce was on those tacos need to be sold by the bottle!! It was so delicious...I wish I could've taken a cup with me. The bag of duros was also good and well seasoned. This place also has good vegan options. All in all, it was a great meal and I look forward to eating here again.

I have heard so much hype over Heirloom and it truly lived up! This spot is tucked away of the Jacksonville square but makes for the perfect lively spot in this town. We started off our meal with chips and queso and a bag of duros. I've never had duros but they had the perfect lime and tajin seasoning with a great crunch. They honestly made the perfect addition to dip in the queso. For drinks, I LOVE a restaurant that had margarita pitches and margarita flights. If you're like me, Heirloom has both! We got a pitcher of blood orange margaritas. I got a flight with prickly pear, peach and honey, strawberry, and spicy mango. My only complaint with the flights is that there is a lot of syrup that is added to the bottom and If you're not prepared you'll only get a sip of syrup. Even thought I got to try all of these flavors, my all time favorite was the blood orange!! You MUST try this flavor. I also loved the spicy mango if you like a little spice. For my meal, I got the taco bowl with fresh gulf shrimp. This had a nice creamy sauce added to the top with beans, rice, corn, and some other fresh flavors. My sister got the regular with steak, and my brother in law got the nachos. The guac on the side of the regular was delicious and fresh. The portions were great and the food came out hot and fast. The staff also made sure to check on us throughout the meal. Even though you order at the counter, there's no pressure to order immediately. Also, the bar has seating that you can just come grab a drink and chips and dip! Definitely loved Heirloom and so worth the try!

Churro duro

Wow this was a fantastic find by my buddy Jon! We were looking for a late lunch after an afternoon ride on the Chief Ladiga Trail. To start with, any place that gives you free appetizer munchies is already off to a great rating. Here, we were provided a chip-like savory snack. I have never had anything like this - I thought it was pork rinds at first. But it was actually duros, a type of Mexican snack made from fried pasta. Savory, salty, and satisfying - even before the meal. The tacos were fantastic - I got the al pastor, chorizo, and fried chicken. Lots of quality ingredients - the fried chicken one was crispy and big, yet still juicy. The aioli was a great addition. The al pastor and chorizo were very good, but the fried chicken taco stands above these. Good portions of lime rice and black beans. The best part of this meal, however, was not the meat. It was the in-house made corn tortillas! These were really unique - they are different from the fresh corn tortillas I get at the Mexican grocery store. Still great consistency and taste! The tres leches cake is a must-have. I got the fruitty pebbles, and my friend got the cinnamon toast crunch. It was phenomenal. You could easily tell that the cake and the frosting were made in-house. The cake was super moist, sweet, but not over the top saturated with that crappy sugar taste you get from a Walmart Christmas cookies. Good prices especially considering everything is heirloom and fresh, except for the Gulf shrimp. A great find (by my friend Jon) and a congratulations to Jacksonville State for having this in their backyard. One of the easiest five star reviews I've had in a while.

Opened up dining room, awesome weather!

I've been meaning to get by here for a while now. I've got friends in the area that I visit so I finally got to eat lunch. The Gulf Shrimp taco is amazing!! I killed them!! They gave me Duros to try since I drove 70 miles. They are amazing!! I've never had anything like that before and I didn't share since I had them to go! I have another reason to visit Jacksonville more often!!

Taco Date Night, we enjoyed the atmosphere and the outdoor patio since the weather was still mild.  This was before our current heatwave

Local and family owned business! Delicious food We have lived in Jacksonville for 2 years and have never eaten here so we decided to try it and visit the used book store next door and have an after dinner walk around downtown Jacksonville . We enjoyed ourselves. So nice to have a variety of local businesses to enjoy!

My meal! Street Corn, steak bowl, shrimp taco.
Shannon F.

Really surprised by this spot. Great atmosphere! Ingredients were fresh! I have shrimp taco with Corn tortilla, which was my favorite! I had the steak bowl and then some street corn. Everything was very good. I do feel it was a little pricey but I will always pay more for quality. No complaints! Service was fast and everyone was very friendly!!

Visited on 10/25/2023.....food was amazing. I had Chicken Enchiladas with black beans and cilantro lime rice and a diet coke. Also a side order of delicious duros!!! Beautiful presentation! Well worth visiting.

Me, my mom, and my best friend went to Heirloom on a Friday evening. We were happy to arrive and see that the tables were spread out and there was patio/open-air dining. Heirloom operates out of a garage, so there's fresh air flowing through no matter where you sit. After being seated, we ordered pineapple margaritas and our server brought out complimentary duros with tajin to the table. They were so good and addicting. And the margs were amazingggg. My mom and I ordered the birria quesatacos and a side of elote while my best friend ordered a shrimp taco and guacamole. We also got another round of margaritas, but this time I ordered a grapefruit marg - it was good too. My friend said her shrimp taco was delicious. My birria tacos were okay. The meat and consomé were GREAT! But I didn't like the corn tortilla; it was falling apart and their tortillas are homemade, so it was thicker than I'd like. The elote was solid though. Maybe next time I go I'll get birria with flour tortillas and try that out. Regardless, Heirloom is a hit! I'll definitely be back to continue supporting this local business.

The hot fried chicken taco and the vegan taco are packed full with flavor. The horchatas were ok, but the food is solid.

Baja Grill as the locals call it is off on the side of a strip mall, but nothing like a strip mall…read morerestaurant. It features an aquatic theme with a large aquarium and lots of blues and yellows. The food is mostly Mexican fare, and usually delivered quick and hot after you've eaten too many free chips from the chips and salsa. The salsa by the way is delicious. I get the chimichanga when I visit, they, like most locations I've visited over the years pack meat into the chimichanga without cheese (I once worked for a restaurant that put cheese in the Chimmi - was so darn good. But the cheese and sour crème served with the Chimmi is quite good and it's a filling and tasty meal. The Mexican rice and refried beans mix nicely with the Chimmi. I'm often there after attending a sporting event at Jacksonville State, and if you are doing the same this is a great stop before you head home. They have a ton of space, lots of tables, friendly servers and and large menu. Check them out when you're close by.

We have been here a few times and it's been fine. the first time we came it was great, but every…read moreexperience since has gone steadily downhill tonight being the 1-star night! I won't bore you with all the details, but we got take-out to bring to my in-laws. My food was ok. I get the same dish all the time and for sure it was chintzy and ehh. But my husband got a steak quesadilla for $8.50. But what he got was crappier than a taco. He decided to DRIVE all the way back (4 miles) and when he talked to the manager, the manager said, that is what it is supposed to be.. My husband was appalled and said this is barely the size of a taco and there's hardly any steak or cheese. To which the manager replied, "No sir, our tacos are way smaller." CRAZY!!! Then the manager said we can put a couple pieces of steak on it. My husband said no thank you and asked for a refund (We had bought 3 other people dinner!) The manager flatly refused. We cannot believe it. Mostly because my husband is 10 times nicer than me and was kind the whole time. Well our whole extended family will never be back!
