I highly recommend this place in the heart of old downtown Eagle and open for only a few weeks. I ordered the pollo asado burrito instead of trying their namesake tacos and have to say that it was the best burrito I've had in years! You need a big appetite because the delicious fillings are plentiful with lots of flavorful juicy chicken, avocado, chicken skin chicharrones, which add an amazing crunch to the burrito and more. I also ordered chips and a tamarind margarita. The tajin chips were excellent but I personally didn't like the spicy jalapeño flavor in the margarita. Service was fast & friendly read more

Typical Eagle hype up ... this place is a glorified Chevys (which is only food for beers and free chips). If overpriced white people taco night is your jam ... you've found your spot! Absolute joke this place is as busy as it is ... the California to Idaho crew is so overly desperate for a sub standard taco, it's pathetic. If you love your dog, you'd feed him Taco Bell over this. read more

Busy Friday afternoon. Got seated right away. Fast, friendly service. Patio is enclosed in the winter, bar area was nice. Could use some more TV's but has big windows with a lot of natural light. Beer and cocktails were good. Chips and salsa/guac/warm cheese dip were all good. Guac is fresh and real. Salsa is smoky and was yummy. Cheese dip was also good. Not a fan of the tajin on the chips but to each his/her own. Tacos are good sized and flavorful. The Al Pastor was the better of the two (carne). Big chunk of fresh pineapple and tasty pork. Carne Asada was also good. Would repeat and especially when the weather warms and the patio and balcony open up. read more

Where have I been in life!?! Came to Spitfire Tacos today for lunch and had the best time!! This place used to be an old burger joint. It got a nice glow up! Quite the venue now! It's bright, colorful and exciting. We got sat at one of the booths right next to the bar. They have bottles of spirits beautifully placed. The bar would be fun to sit at for a fun drink or a casual date night. We were here for lunch and this place was buzzin! It's nice to see do many people out eating and having a good time! Our server came and greeted us. She got our drinks ordered and shortly came back to take our food orders. I got a Huckleberry mocktail for my drink. For starters we ordered the chips with queso, guac and salsa. For our tacos we grabbed the quesabirria taco and shrimp taco. My Huckleberry mocktail was delicious! It was sweet and tart. It was garnished with a juicy huckleberry and a dried lime piece. The chips and dip were fabulous! I enjoyed the fresh quac and queso. It was hard to stop eating the tajin dusted chips. And then you add queso to that chip...... so good! The tacos came out a little after and boy did they look fantastic! The quesabirria taco was devine! It's prepared a little differently compared to other birria tacos. They melt the cheese into the meat and not grill the taco itself. It worked! That baby was filled with the meaty cheesy goodness. Topped with a delicious salsa and onion mix. The consume that came with it was savory. It added a good element to the quesabirria. The shrimp taco was awesome! The shrimp was savory and crunchy. The cabbage slaw on top gave it a nice crunchy element. The sauce gave it a creaminess to the bite. Both of these tacos were chef's kiss! I'm happy I got to try this joint out! The staff was fantastic! From the bartender to the server, they were on top of their A game! The food was phenomenal. The venue is fun and relaxing. I look forward to going back to having more tacos! read more

Blatant Dishonesty and Zero Management Accountability I will not be returning to Spitfire, and if you have a family, I suggest you don't either. We decided to bring our family of five (including small children) for an early dinner around 4:30 PM. The experience was a disaster from the moment we pulled into the full parking lot. My wife jumped out of the car to check availability while I found a spot. She specifically asked the host if we could take one of the internal booths, noting that we had small kids and could easily "cram in" to make it work. The host told her that no booths were available, but a table was being cleared. We got the kids out of the car and squeezed into the tiny, waiting area by the stand. While we stood there, we watched a group vacate one of the booths. We immediately asked if we could wait for that specific spot since it was now open. Again, we were told "there is another group ahead of you waiting for a booth"...no biggie, thought we would ask Then the "WTF" moment happened. While we were still standing there waiting, a party of four walked in off the street. The host told them there was no room inside but to grab any four-seater they saw. As the group from the booth finally cleared out, that party of four--who had just walked in 5 minutes after us--asked the host if they could have the booth. Right in front of our faces, the host let them sit down. When I called the other host out on this, he was completely dumbfounded--he knew they'd screwed up. I asked to speak to a manager. I explained the entire sequence: how we were told we couldn't have the booth because of a "waitlist," only to watch a later arrival walk right past us and take it. The manager's response? A cold, dismissive, "I'll talk to them." No "I'm sorry." No "Let me make this right." No apology whatsoever. It's one thing to have a host who is clueless and watches a mistake happen right in front of them without saying a word. It is another thing entirely to have a manager who clearly doesn't give a damn about his customers. We walked out and took our money to an establishment that actually understands basic hospitality. read more

Everything from the vibe to the food was amazing. I had the the Al Pastor and Carne Asada tacos. Both amazing. I added mushrooms to it to top it off. Mushrooms are a must try! 5 star service from Noah and Havi!!! read more

Noting some early 5 Star reviews for this newly opened place come from people with only that 1 review in their Yelp history makes me ponder if they may be friends of the establishment to be raving about this so early on. (Looks as if they got moved behind the Yelp filter now so maybe Yelp HQ wondered that too.) I'll offer a counter-balance. This first Idaho location of a CA rooted tacos and tequila themed chain eatery has potential to do well given Eagle demographics but they seem not quite ready to roll and it is an awkward set up with very limited inside seating during cold weather months. They have a long way to travel on the road to earn 5 star reviews, in my humble Yelp opinion. LOCATION & SPACE: On the site of an old Burger Den long time biz in downtown Eagle, this is one of a chain of eateries HQ'd in CA so I anticipated they would be more ready to have things lined up as needed when they opened this Spitfire. Maybe it will work better once warm weather arrives and they can open the downstairs patio and the upstairs (accessible only by outside stairs) deck. But for now one enters via a "weather flap" via the outside patio (see photo) with the inside door open to the outside patio making it awkward in the small interior space which also has very limited seating. Maybe a handful of booths, one accessible - regular height table with banquette on one side and chairs on the other and the rest high seats at a bar. Plus it was SO LOUD inside with music up, even with only the maybe 8 or 10 people seated at the booths and table (but at that a full house for that seating being taken) so it wasn't buzzing crowd noise. No one seemed to want to perch at the bar. Neither did we. They didn't yet offer the food to go. EATS: They are not yet serving all things on the menu given they are newly opened so that's that for the food. Plus, at $6 / taco and $15 / burrito these are approaching Madre Boutique Taqueria prices and it is not in that league for eats. Boise located Madre, helmed in kitchen by Beard recognized chef (also from CA) and FOH managed by his wife who has customer service background in 5-Star hospitality properties, with fabulous food, stellar service and artful ambiance is the North Star for excellence and it is the 5-star against which I weigh others in this dining segment of "gourmet taco". https://www.yelp.com/biz/madre-boutique-taqueria-boise?osq=madre Given time, Spitfire may improve. The people are friendly. LIQUOR: Full bar and so this will likely join the "par-taay" focus of other local restaurants that really press liquor and food is secondary which seems to increasingly fit the Eagle market these days. Different demographics support different focus and this one will probably do well here. (Ironically, the best places for food in Eagle, Bacquet's for French fare, Bodacious Pig for BBQ and Tasso for sandwiches, either are beer and wine only or no liquor as in Tasso.) EARLYBIRD BURRITO: This drive through for breakfast burrito biz is associated with Spitfire. See this 3 star review from someone who posted at EarlyBird name a day or two ago. Looks like they're not quite dialed in there either. No harm in that, things can take time to jell. https://www.yelp.com/biz/earlybird-beakfast-burritos-eagle-coming-soon-eagle Reviews for the drive through breakfast burritos posted on this page are really for the EarlyBird part. PARKING: Private lot with a few spots and this is an advantage in Eagle where street parking can be tough. ACCESSIBILITY: One spot of ADA parking in the lot but it is not compliant with Idaho Code or Federal ADA law as it has access aisle striping on the wrong side for van access. This is the City of Eagle's failing to approve it but you'll see the same error all over Eagle. One standard height table inside meets the mere minimum of ADA. LOO: I wasn't there long enough to check it out. read more

Check this place out - Beers and Tacos! So Yummy! Great vibes whether you sit upstairs on the patio, downstairs or inside. The staff is amazing. Food is cooked to order and so delicious and so flavorful. We ordered Al Pastor Taco, Carne Asada, Alta California Shrjmp, and Mushroom Quesataco. read more

Eagle Idaho 4-5pm 06/03/26. My worst bar experience. poor service. bad attitude - no greeting, just acknowledge you are seating. asked if he should go back to brake my $5 into ones, rather than bring me my change. Mexico City Margarita - watery - no Tequila test !! Will not go back. Not even a mild thanks. Glad I did not try the food. read more

I can't really speak on what it's like to dine in, have their cocktails or tacos as this was my first time and I was just grabbing a breakfast sandwich at their pickup drive thru on my way to work this morning. I ordered ahead of time on their website for an easy drive thru pickup. I went with one of the breakfast Sando's (a sandwich with chicken, fried egg, hot honey and some sliced red chili peppers).. it wasn't bad but I'd be lying if I told you it really hit the spot or that I felt it was well worth the $11 I paid for it. The sandwich sounded like my dream come true.. sweet, spicy and combining my two favorite foods: chicken and eggs. I will say the chicken was cooked well and was juicy on the inside but this breakfast sandwich overall really lacked in the flavor department. I feel the chicken and egg could have used some seasoning.. black pepper alone can really go a long way had they put some on there. They only put the tiniest drop of hot honey and there were little red chilies sliced on top which I was excited about as I like a good spicy kick and they added no spice to the sandwich whatsoever. It was bland, boring, it had potential but I expected so much more!perhaps their tacos and drinks are better so maybe I'll give them another chance but I'd rather spend more and have breakfast at Squeeze in than come back here for breakfast items... but sadly, I just found out Squeeze In is closing down permanently this weekend:( read more

I'll say that the last couple times we've gone we noticed a dip in quality of the food. Last night four of us ordered over from the brewery (an awesome service). The order came quick, but was incorrect, and the level of salt in/on the food was wild. Like, at first I thought, it's okay, but by about halfway through I couldn't finish it--just too much. They might just need to QA the kitchen a bit. read more

I waited 15 minutes at an empty bar and no one helped me. I will never go here again.

This place is still growing into itself Tacos are good. Drinks are good. Service is good. The patio upstairs is roasting in the summer, but will be super nice in the fall and spring. Downstairs is loud. Super loud. Both the drink and food menu continue to evolve. Definitely the restaurant is trying to tune for their customers. Spitfire also deserves credit for being supportive of their community! read more

This is my dad's new favorite place so while I was in town, I just had to try it out. It is a small little restaurant on the inside but I believe has rooftop seating as well! The tacos are a bit pricey, but oh so delicious. The service was nothing special but nothing bad either. Overall it was a great experience. Next time I'm in town I want to try their delicious looking cocktails! read more

New spot in downtown, the restaurant is small and for the most part clean. We went in on a Thursday night and our service was average. We had to ask a few times for refills of water. The margaritas are super delicious but the food is lacking for the cost. We had one carne burrito but it had more onion than meat. It literally was shameful the amount of meat to onion ratio. The chips and salsa are pretty greasy. I'm very sad to say, I am not a fan favorite. I am also disappointed they are opening the roof top to 21+ only when the restaurant is very small and located in a small town that's SO family friendly. read more

Spitfire Tacos + Tequila - Mexican Near Me - Eagle, Idaho

It has the potential but fell short. Very expensive for the portion. Tacos are small. If looking for a traditional taco place but this is not it. Drinks are weak and expensive. The restaurant is small and loud. Feel crammed in like Sardines. Could not get in and out of our own seats without hitting the other seats. Needless to say, I hope to never be back. They could be really awesome but just fell so short. read more

I keep coming back. The service is amazing. Constantly having events held to keep things spicy! Spicy food. If you want it. If not let the staff know and they accommodate for you. Smash burger tacos are my favorite! They are a staple! Drinks. Tequila is their specialty and their specialty drinks are incredible. Now for the season of flus they have a drink infused with carrot ginger and turmeric. It's like getting an immune booster in your cocktail! read more

Come here every week or two. Great date night spot. The food is great and the service is awesome! They have a kickass patio too!

Despite this being a Tacos & Tequila joint, I don't consider it authentic Mexican food and thats no reason to knock it whatsoever. They're gourmet tacos that are super filling and full of flavor--i love the smash burger taco, mex-tex salad (with pollo asado or carne), al pastor-carne & pollo asado tacos as well as the Quesabirria. Ive ordered their breakfast burrito via Uber Eats and living all the way in Meridian its nice that its only a $.99 delivery fee (altho the burrito is a couple bucks more on the app). I wouldn't compare it to a taco foodtruck or a similar hole in the wall authentic Mexican food joint. Thats an apples to oranges comparison. I love their mixed Mezcal drink (cant think of the name off hand but it literally comes smoking). A couple suggestions i have (not to be confused with a complaint) is i wish their Margarita soaked grapes came more frozen & that they offered nachos as a regular menu item, especially with their tajin seasoned chips. I love the vibe and the mix of reggae & country music playlist they have playing. If you want cheap $3 street tacos or taquitos, go find a food truck or go to that denny's style "ca mexican food" joint in Boise. If you want filling gourmet tacos & burritos with great mix drinks as a date night, night out with friends or to watch the ballgame, this is the spot. Not a fan of the parking situation but thats largely outside their control. This has otherwise become a go to spot and i live all the way in Meridian. read more

What can be said about a place that serves $9 tacos (tax included) and $19 burritos? 'a fool and his money are easily parted'. Actual residents of Eagle are being fooled. They want a real world taco place and what do they get? Fake stuff with fake reviews. They refuse to accept US currency to pay for food. Would they prefer Yuan? Very limited seating and no reservations are available. Unfriendly, unskilled staff. Where did they find these people? Doubt that they are Idahoans because they have ZERO people skills. They are getting desperate by asking friends who have no or virtually no other reviews or friends on Yelp to post 5 star reviews for them. Real FAKE stuff that everyone should see as fake. This is a FAIL. Wherever this bunch came from, they should return to it. read more

Great service and friendly staff, we ordered the chips and guacamole and holy mole, they don't skimp. Their guacamole & salsa were fantastic. We ordered 3 tacos, smash burger (wife said it was sooo good) pork belly and the shrimp. Both were really good tacos but the shrimp taco brought the heat! My lips were on fire for a solid 10 minutes after finishing it. Thank god for the cool glass of H2O. Cool spot, nice outside seating and tasty tacos and cocktails. We'll definitely return. read more

Waited over 30 min for a few tacos, only to have them come out wrong and cold. Plus asked for Guacamole and did not get it. And we found this out after we got home. Unacceptable. Ok I have to say we ended up going back and they very nicely took care of everything. So I have to say I was wrong. Thank you for making it right read more

Korean Bbq taco unreal. 7 dollar tacos had me suspicious, but man were they good! Made a slight error in my sweetheart's order, but fixed it fast with a sincere apology. Try it, it's pretty darn yummy. Also had the smashburger taco, and yeah, it tasted just like a smashburger. read more

I love their chips, (dusted with Tajine before baking) salsa and quac! I've tried several tacos they are way above average ! $8...only complaint was my sons burrito. He said if he had a restaurant and a cook prepared a burrito like that he'd be fired! It was stuffed with too much potato and the ingredients were separated . It was dry in spots and meatless in others. He suggested they put the ingredients in something a mix them all together so you get a good bite every time. He lives in Eagle and would be a regular but you lost him on that burrito. I may get him there again because I've lived it every time I go. The margaritas are the bomb too!! read more

I was very impressed with the new Spitfire Tacos and Tequila in Eagle! I think it is a great addition to the downtown Eagle area. I had heard great things about their breakfast burritos so I figured I would grab one on my way to work. On the drive I wondered if they had order ahead, and sure enough they did! The whole process of ordering online was very easy. I placed the order, it gave me a wait time, and upon arrival there is a drive through pick up window. The whole experience was pleasant. I got the bacon bird, which was delicious! The mix of the brown sugar bacon with the other savory ingredients was to die for. The burrito was huge and was enough for breakfast for me for two days! I can't wait to go back to try their other food! read more

I recommend you try this place out if you are in the immediate area. Here's my review of what we ate: Chips with Guacamole and Cheese: Delicious all around, small servings. About one scoop of guacamole. ($9) Tacos: Quesabirria taco = needed more cheese, Carne Asada taco = onion and cilantro too heavy coulda used more meat, Al Pastor taco = good, Korean BBQ Pork Belly taco = coulda used more meat ... they were all delicious across the board and I would value them at $4 each, not the $6 they are charging. Reef N' Beef burrito: good and tasty ($15) Churro Cheesecake: it is served in a mason jar, avoid ($6) Summary: I found the greatest value at the bar, my Old Fashioned was about $10 with Makers Mark. We are 1.5 Mexican people here, grew up on authentic Mexican and cook it at home. We understand this restaurant is Mexican fusion and appreciate that they are here. We hope and believe they will be successful in this area. I wouldn't drive here from far away. read more

My friend and I wanted to try spitfire last night and we were so happy that we did. Our drinks were tasty and had great flavor. We also got chips, salsa and guac for $5 and it was also tasty with great flavor. I got the Al pastor taco and it was filling with a lot of meat and complimentary flavors as well. My friend got the carne asada burrito it was so huge that she shared some of it with me because she couldn't finish all of it. The host greeted us promptly and sat us at our table and our server, Kyle, took wonderful care of us and made sure we were happy and had everything we needed. Will be back in again to try more off their menu! read more
