Walking up to this place we knew we'd love it. If we lived in town it would 100% be our go-to bar and we'd be regulars. We only order mozzarella sticks because of time restriction but they were amazing. Piping hot when we got them. We sat at the bar, and Rachel asked us how we were doing and was so social. People, this girl wasn't even on the clock. I saw her with her family and she noticed the bar getting into the weeds like most bars do on the weekends and she jumped behind the bar and quickly caught up the dishes and took a couple orders. Not to shame our original bartender...she was excellent and knowledgeable!! I absolutely think you're missing an opportunity for a great time if you don't come here.

What a wonderful little Restaurant in Monticello, Indiana, which is not a very big town but from…read morethe minute we got there everyone was so gracious and accommodating, and we got there an hour before they closed and didn't seem to bother them at all. They treated us wonderful and the food was fantastic. What a great little place I told my family the next time we head down that way we have to stop there for breakfast because I can guarantee you. It's gonna probably be just absolutely wonderful thank you to everyone for being so awesome and accommodating to us and once again the food I recommend everyone to stop there. It was awesome.

OMG! The only reason I loved going to Indiana Beach was for the amazing tacos!…read more I was visiting a customer in Monticello looking for someplace for lunch. I got on Yelp of course! I saw The Taco Shoppe - one of the first review I read explained how the taco stand was no longer in Indiana Beach/ but had opened shop 1 mile from where I was! Trust me I knew this was the place for me!!! Anyone that has been to Indiana Beach must remember these delicious tacos! They are nothing fancy/ just ground beef lettuce snd cheese- with the AMAZING taco sauce! You order at a Windiw- pick up at the next- there are a few picnic tables. I noticed a steady stream of people walking up the steps to place orders! This is a must stop if you have fun memories of the tacos at Indiana Beach!

There's something to be said about knowing your strengths and understanding your clientele. If…read moreyou've ever been to Indiana Beach on Lake Shafer, you've probably had tacos from the now closed Taco Shoppe. It was a staple for years at the amusement park, and gained such a following that when they closed a few years back, their regulars (myself included) were devastated. So much so that the owners decided to re-open the business about three miles away in downtown Monticello, IN. The recipe for their success is a simple one. Keep the menu simple. Find a niche product that differentiates your establishment from the dozens of other taco joints in the area and only open for a select amount of time so that you always leave them wanting more. The Taco Shoppe is a carry-out only and has no inside seating at all. In fact, there's no "inside" of the business. You order from one window and pick up your food from another. There's a handful of picnic tables in the lot next door, but that's it. So what's the secret??? Tough to describe. First of all, the soft shell corn tortillas are flash fried, maybe?!? Whatever they do to them, they are delicious. Their ground beef is also kind of a mystery. It's unlike any beef taco I've had before, and my fat ass has had PLENTY of tacos in my 52 years. They serve the tacos with red sauce (mild) and green sauce (hot). They are both amazing. Their red sauce is on the sweeter side, and I can't compare it to anything else really... Like everything else about this place, it's totally unique. The Taco Shoppe is one of those places that if you know about it.... you know. You get it.
