    Shrimp Quesadillas
    Kayla M.

    The queso and marg started everything off right. The gringo taco was amazing! The Vic Fil A was not great -- the chicken texture was too tough and tasted as it had been sitting for a while. I sat at the bar and had great service. Recommend this place for a casual stop!

    The food was incredible here! I had the El Gringo taco and it was possibly one of the best tacos I've ever had. The flavor was incredible and it was HUGE. I really didn't need the flautas too, but they were on happy hour deal so I wanted to try them. I would definitely return. The service... was kind of weird. It was our waiter's second shift and he was entirely on his own. He couldn't answer any questions (completely understandable) and he didn't know much about the menu. I just found it odd they threw him in without shadowing someone else first. It made the ordering and paying process very long because he had to keep going to ask questions. I didn't blame him, but it made me question why the restaurant would do that. Also, the franchise at large was promoting a special burger on their website and said it was available at all locations, and he had no idea what I was talking about. He went and asked someone and he said they didn't have that. Just in general it was a little weird.

    Cute spot, easy garage free parking, and our server was perky and awesome. Went for happy hour and dinner. Drinks were good, and I had a fair few gluten-free food options, so that was a plus. Everything was delicious BUT why was my soup served in a PLASTIC TAKEOUT bowl? Eww. Like a cheap airport grab'n'go instead of a sit-down dinner in the upscale Green Hills shopping center. I don't love hot plastic with my meal. All utensils are plastic, btw. WEIRD. Server says that's just how they do it. Boo. Other than that, it was lovely.

    Chicken taco & Birria Taco

    Easily one of my favorite taco restaurants in the city, I have to return to try the steak taco, which was highly complimented throughout my dining experience. Both tacos were filling. Fresh ingredients used and food presentation was visually pleasing. The chicken taco was simply amazing. The birria taco was not as flavorful. Several sauce options were available at their sauce bar to enhance the taste of tacos, which I enjoyed.

    Taco Bamba is a great addition to Hill Center is Green Hills! We dined in on a Saturday afternoon and there was plenty of open seating (including on the sunny patio). And everyone enjoyed what they ordered! TIP: Don't miss the Salsa Bar by the drink station. Would absolutely come back!

    Queso and chips.. yum!

    Stopped in while shopping at the hill in green hills. Unique twist on the tacos seemed Asian infused style. Was very good and reasonable. I ordered the chips and queso, yum.. perfect amount of heat in the queso and fresh tortilla chips.

    Delicious taco spot! This was my first time here, you sit anywhere and then a server comes over to take your order. My server was extremely personable and helped me understand my options and ultimately choose my meal. I went with a fish taco, which was grouper, and a "dirty" carne asada taco. You can make any taco "dirty" which is adding on extra sauces and flavoring. I of course also had to try the Mexican street corn! After ordering my food, I couldn't say no to a margarita so they made me a special spicy one! The food came out so fast, was piping hot and hot the spot. I would have preferred to know ahead that the corn was on the cob, just because it gets all up in my teeth, but it was worth it. The spot is cute, loads of seats inside or outside, menus on every table and servers who really seem to care.

    Great tacos and corn on the cob! Price is very reasonable. Served was amazing and friendly. Service was quick too. I like the low key, casual ambience. They have salsa bar - if you order chips, you can get a variety of salsa to choose from but it won't be home made salsa. Guacamole was ok- a bit heavy on lime. I love the I would go there again for light bites and hanging out with friends!

    Carne Asada Taco (dirty style)
    Joiliana L.

    This is a pretty good taco spot, probably one of the best in Nashville. It has a good design and plenty of seating options (large bar, tables up to 4 I believe, and outdoor seating). All the workers were nice. They have a wide selection of tacos, and even non-taco options, including vegetarian options. They also have an extensive tequila selection. It's clear that they make the tortillas in house as well. Here's what I got: Chips and guacamole: 4/5. Chips were great, good crunch and salty. Guac was okay, made ahead of time and sits in a fridge up front. Birria taco (braised lamb): 3.5/5. Juicy and flavorful. Probably better with toppings. Tinga (chipotle chicken): 3/5. Really flavorful, but a little dry by itself. Carne asada, dirty style: 4.5/5. I substituted the flour tortilla for corn. Really tasty. Well balanced flavors. I just wanted the steak more tender. I would return if I was in the green hills area.

    Let me start by saying the service is absolutely elite!! I've been in the place a few times but it's months in between, and the young lady that works there, recognizes me each time. My order is always quick and absolutely delish!! I went recently for taco week and tried their Queen Bee taco. That thing would make Beyoncé herself bow down. It was sweet. It was spicy.. It was everything I've been missing in a good bite of food. I will be back!! Restaurant also has a bar so wonderful atmosphere for a laid back lunch, dinner, or date night.

    I think 4 stars is a solid rating for Taco Bamba, though there's definitely room for improvement. Their food is absolutely amazing and well-priced for the vibe they're going for. We sat at the bar, so our service was great. One area where they could improve is how they manage guests in the main dining area. The way the restaurant works is that guests would order at the counter, sit down, and then pick up their order when their number was called. The issue was that, as the place got more crowded, the bartenders had to start taking orders at the counter too. This caused confusion, with some guests not paying attention to their numbers being called or picking up the wrong orders, leading to chaos. In my opinion, they need to adjust this process to prevent that. If they do, this place could easily be a 5-star spot!

    Second time here - there's so much flavor in every dish. I love the Nashville specialities - each of their locations offer a special city menu and I find that awesome. Love their salsa too, packs a punch! No wait to order and only a few minutes for the food to come out hot and fresh! Parking can be tricky at busy times but there's the Whole Foods garage close by.

To their credit, Federales' service staff POURS THE DRINKS CONSTANTLY lol. They brought out bottle after bottle, esp for the Mimosa's. We enjoyed it and felt this was part of the experience there - chill out, sink into the vibe, enjoy live music and loosen up while sitting in a modern open-air concept with everyone around smiling and feeling good ... In conclusion, this rivals Adele's for my favorite Nashville brunch spot. The two have very different vibes, and I highly recommend checking out Federales!

This place came recommended from a friend and it seemed exciting to go to the restaurant of a singer! It is right in the heart of the downtown bar area. We had a very large group of people on a Saturday night. We had a bit of a wait as they do not take reservations. They seated us upstairs all together sort of at a row of tables separate but all on a row which worked out ok. We were there to celebrate a 21st birthday. They did say Happy Birthday but nothing special beyond that was given or provided which was a little disappointing but I think everyone in Nashville is celebrating something so I get it. Service was very good. Chips with salsa and guacamole was provided upon seating for everyone. When requested more was provided. We had one person who was Gluten Free and they appeared to take care in explaining options as well as answering any questions people had. Drinks were refilled and kept flowing (alcoholic ones). And for a busy Saturday night meals came out in a good timing. Everyone enjoyed their meal although one person had bitten into something hot and did not like it and they were happy to replace the meal. The meal that I had was fantastic! The steak quesadilla. The steak was tender and extremely flavorful. Honestly I had been a bit hesitant to order steak due to being very picky over steak quality. But I was very happy with it! Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals and at the end of the meal the server actually was ok with splitting up the ticket even tho we were a very large group which many many establishments refuse to do so this made me very pleased! Oh they had a live band playing on the first floor which was nice. There is an elevator at the back of the restaurant which is nice for those unable or just not wanting to climb a flight of stairs . The flower wall with the Nashville name on it made such a great backdrop for photos! They had two unisex bathrooms on the first floor. I would definitely recommend and go back to this place!
