Owner or manager was nice and the girl that took my order. Food was great and drinks were ok. I wouldn't order that spicy tequila drink again but I'd definitely come back to try something else.

What a very interesting place oh and name. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff was friendly and the restaurant was very clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This was my first visit here and I was happy the menu was easy to understand. Although I'm not a taco girl this place was pretty good, with its unique twist on tacos. I ordered the San Antonio and the Al Pastor tacos and they had a pretty good taste to them. The tacos are small so you may want to order a few. We also ordered the street corn which has a unique flavor as well.

The daily special, Curry chicken taco, the OG with Grilled chicken and the Steak and Queso.

Strange Taco Bar in Lawrenceville is one of those places that immediately makes you wonder why you waited so long to try it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space itself is swanky in a relaxed way, cute, well decorated, and open and inviting without trying too hard.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From the moment I walked in, the staff were friendly, welcoming, and somehow already knew exactly where my to go order was, which felt like a small but impressive win. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was spotless and the parking lot deserves its own shout out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was a decent size and easily handled my honkin big truck without any awkward maneuvering or silent prayers. That alone earns points. Now let us talk about the food, because wow. Everything was made exactly how I ordered it and tasted incredible. I went with three tacos and each one brought something different to the party. The daily special curry chicken taco was bold and flavorful in the best way. The OG with grilled chicken was classic and perfectly executed. The steak and queso was rich, savory, and downright dangerous in how fast it disappeared. The flavor profiles were spot on across the board and each taco held its own. Ordering online was quick and painless, which made the whole experience even smoother. Between the great food, friendly staff, clean space, and easy ordering, Strange Taco Bar absolutely nailed it. I will definitely go back and will continue to regret not trying them sooner.

Chicken + Queso

Food was good 4/5. Service was fast, [[HIGHLIGHT]]place was clean and nice setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One thing sucked, the Guacamole was not good, the chips were nice and hot. Also the Nashville Hot chicken was not hot at all it was only honey sauce on it, what happened to the spice? I would return though, good cheap eats.

Buffalo (red) and Mushroom (black)  tacos
David G.

Came here for a quick bite and was not disappointed. The chips and queso were average, but the tacos were on point. I particularly liked the mushroom taco, although the buffalo taco was not bad either, but not as unique. Basically tasted like a buffalo chicken wrap you'd get at any sports bar. Service is standard fast casual. Inside there's a little spunk in the decor, but it basically feels like a fast casual place.

Love love love love this place! I came here on Taco Tuesday and loved the kind service and the easy sitting and menu. This place is very chill and easy going. The margaritas were just okay, but a great addition to the tacos. The tacos were definitely the STAR OF THE SHOW. My favorite was the taco Al pastor, the pineapple was the perfect addition to the taco and the shrimp taco was amazing. I was pleasantly surprised on the tastiness of the tacos with it only being $3. 10000/10

This place has been on my radar and I'm so glad I finally got a chance to try it! This is very similar in aesthetic to Velvet Taco so if you're a fan of non-authentic tacos you'd really enjoy this place. There is such a wide range of taco options ranging for pescatarian, vegetarian, and even some vegan options which is very commendable for a business. They're solid options too, not just bland boring options. Portabella Mushrooms 7/10 -- decided to try a veggie taco bc the description was just that enticing. I actually really enjoyed the taco and I loved the goat cheese edition. I could actually see myself trying this meatless option. Coconut Shrimp 8/10 -- cannot go wrong with a coconut shrimp option! The pineapples and sauce complimented the taco very well! Southern Pork 9/10 -- this was hands down my favorite taco! Perfect combination of sweet and spicy! Ordered a strawberry frozen margarita. Not strong at all but it was still pretty good to sip on, especially for $8. I think next time I come I'm going to try their 9% canned vodka for the same price.

Quick service. Great tacos. Strong, yummy margaritas. Cute little place with enough seating to eat in.

This is one of my favorite Taco Tuesday spots! $2 tacos are a hit! The OG Taco is my go to order.

Fried fish taco and O.G Original Gangster Steak Taco
Kadie M.

My new fave taco spot! I've been twice since discovering this gem, and both experiences have been great! Tacos and margaritas were delish, and the service was good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Indoor and outdoor seating available, very chill![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Fried green tomatoes, steak and cheese, Buffalo chicken tacos
Jason H.

Been by this place so many times and didn't realize it was even there. I finally decided to check it out. Like the name implies they have some unusual tacos. I had the Buffalo chicken, steak and cheese, and fried green tomatoes tacos. I also ordered the chips and queso. Overall everything was tasty. I will say of the 3, my favorite was the steak and cheese. The chips and queso is a huge portion. Seating is a mix of indoor and outdoor, not a lot of either though. Parking is a bit limited too as it shares a very small parking lot with foggy bottom.

Unfortunately we had a very unpleasant experience this time. The food we received was burnt and overcooked, as seen in the pictures below. One order of tacos was actually a quesadilla instead. When we proceeded to call the restaurant to inform them they insisted that we drive 20 minutes back with the burnt food and the receipt in order to receive compensation, however due to the distance from us that was impossible for us to do and they could not provide us any other alternatives. The manger we spoke to was also very rude and unapologetic of actions and proceeded to encourage us to dispute the charge via our own bank accounts. Very unpleasant and rude staff which was disappointing considering we order from here multiple times. Would not recommend for corporate lunches and was disappointed in the lack of empathy or apologetic manner from the entire staff.

I just made sure to ask for extra pickled onions because they are delicious. My husband had a beef burrito with cheese dip, rice, and beans. Alejandro did bring three sauces for us to try with different levels of heat, but I opted not to try any of them after I tried one and I didn't like the taste. I was good with just the salsa that came with the chips. I ordered a flan to go and I would give that a six out of 10. I don't ever have to have that again. The bathrooms were clean and really smelled nice. Whatever air freshener they are using in the women's bathroom is a 10 out of 10. Parking here is free and is first come first serve. There is a lower parking area available if the top level is full. The parking lot is shared with other restaurants and businesses in the same complex. I would definitely come back here to try something else recommended by the staff.

Heavy on the tequila choices for sure! I had a Baja fish taco and a side of rice with queso on it. Both were delicious. My server was super sweet and had to card me so she took my wallet out (my nails were wet) and I instructed her to where my license was located. She looked at my dob and exclaimed "no way"! I'll be 65 at the end of this month . I told her that doubled her tip!

It's part of a gas station property but no importa!…read more We felt like we were sitting in a local restaurant in Ensenada (not the tourist area). The facilities were modern, very clean and the staff, very kind and helpful. The food was delicious with the majority of the patrons being from Latino descent. We ordered chips with queso, 2 tamale and taco meals and a Carne Asada. Tasty, moist and flavorful tamales (one chicken and one pork with mild red sauce) as well as delicious tacos (Al pastor and birria). I've heard good things about the mole sauce but they were sold out of it. The steak was a little tough but the flavor was delicious. Honorable mention to the rice and beans and guacamole! Wow wow wow. The portions were really great also. So much so I needed a box for my taco. Overall great value with a lunch meal for 3 with an appetizer for about $50 bucks. Great experience!

We stopped by at breakfast-time and ordered: breakfast burrito: flavorful and good, plus easily split into 2 meals. comes with chips or fries. Fries were perfectly cooked and had a tasty seasoning on them. $13-14 breakfast plate: This was ok. It's billed as a scramble but is griddle scrambled and the eggs were very very hard cooked. I would prefer an overdone egg than a soft egg, so that was ok, but I would order them differently if I returned. There were lots of tomatoes, peppers and onions which was nice for flavor, but there were so many that there weren't many "curds" of scrambled eggs if that makes sense. The refried beans might be the tastiest I've ever had. The rice was "ok". The soft corn tortillas were very fresh. If not housemade, these are coming in every day for sure. $13-14 Rajas and cheese tamales: Didn't try these because of the cheese, but they were medium sized and smelled good $4 each Vegan black bean tamales: These come in banana leaves, which I've not had before. I could do without the flavor of the leaf, which is actually pronounced (this surprised me). The masa was lovely and the black bean filling was delicious and well seasoned. I like to pan fry my tamales to reheat and they were stellar the next day. $4 each The staff was friendly and handled accommodations (no dairy, corn tortillas instead of flour) smoothly. I would go again if I was in the area.

I was disappointed to learn they were out of tea in the middle of the day, so I ordered a mocktail instead. The atmosphere was wonderful, and the food was excellent. Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the restaurant. Brandon only came to our table about three or four times during our entire visit. He never brought us plates for our appetizers, water, or eating utensils. Our food was delivered by another staff member, which is understandable, but we still had no forks or spoons when it arrived. My sister eventually had to get up and ask for utensils, and she also had to go to the service window to request water because no one brought it to our table. As our server, Brandon was simply not attentive and didn't seem engaged with us as customers. I love Tacos & Tequilas and visit the Poncey location two or three times a month, so I know the level of service the restaurant is capable of providing. This visit was a major disappointment based solely on the customer service. Despite the lack of attentiveness, we still left Brandon a generous tip. I truly hope this was just an off day because the food and atmosphere were fantastic. I would definitely return, but I hope the service is much better next time.
