After completely forgetting for a moment that we are in the country in South Carolina and trying to eat here on a Sunday (double points for holiday weekend), my husband and I had the chance to try Taco Grill. First off, it's not fancy, but it doesn't need to be. They have a simple menu with reasonable prices, and while it takes a tad longer to come out than a lot of people may find comfortable, is completely worth that wait. I tried a chimichanga and while it was probably about as big as my head, I did not want to leave a single scrap uneaten. My husband enjoyed his meal and man... now I want to go there for dinner instead of the leftovers in the fridge... read more

So the chips and dips we got were delicious. We got the queso and the mild salsa. I got a tamale and there was barely any meat in it at all. So that sucks. I also got two beef tacos and it was just drenched in grease. Dripping everywhere, so that was gross. My fiancé got a shrimp chimichanga an just kept saying it had a really weird taste. This place was supposed to be more authentic than you can normally get but it was not in any way. Sadly :/ Service was quick and the people were really nice. read more

Authentic! Delicious! I had four Tacos...asada, al pastor, chorizo, and another asada. The hubby had carnitas chimichanga. Everything was super tasty. Friendly people, cheap, what's not to love? Do it, you won't be disappointed! read more

If you're looking for a cheap place to eat good Hispanic food, Taco Grill is hands-down the place to go. TWO dollar tacos, free nachos that come with them, and a real inviting atmosphere. What more can you ask for? read more

We just went to Taco Grill for the first time this evening. We are so happy to have found it! The tacos were fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back. Yum! read more

This is a hidden gem in Boiling Springs. If you love tacos, you MUST try Taco Grill. We sampled the carne asada, brisket, and carnitas tacos, and they were HEAVEN! Try them with the fiery salsa for some heat, and don't forget to add a side of beans and rice. They are delicious too! read more

Authentic, cheap, delicious. This place reminds me of the best authentic taco truck in Kansas!

Dont overlook this little restraunt. Best Dang Tacos in town. It takes a little while to get your food after ordering, but that's because it is made fresh. These are legit tacos! I guarantee if you go one time, you will end up bringing all your friends next time! read more

Some of the best Hispanic food I have ever had. The food is very authentic same as the drink selection. 5 star all the way, eating lunch here every day. read more

Taco Grill is authentic, prepared by people who know how to to cook! And you can really "have it your way" (I know that isn't their slogan but it should be). You tell them what you want and you can choose what kind of meat and what kind of toppings and what kind of sauce and the price is unbelievable! All I can say is that you get good food fixed your way and lots of it for practically nothing! The only reason I didn't give them a five star rating is because they don't have air conditioning and in the summer it is really too hot to eat in the restaurant and they don't take credit cards. read more

Love this place, great authentic food made straight from illegal Mexicans. Couldn't ask for anything better.

I could never say enough good things about this restaurant. He is a hidden gem in Boiling Springs! I always get the chicken tacos, you'll need two hand to eat them, everything is cooked fresh to order, I saw a Torta go out, that was so big three people could have shred it! The gentleman that own it is always friendly and you can tell he enjoys what he does! read more

Great little place. Any taco is only $2. Served Fresh to order. Nice find in Boiling Springs, SC. read more

This place was recommended to us by a neighbor. We have several Mexican restaurants around us, but I'm so glad we heard about this one! The food is real food, with amazing taste. The seasoning on the beef is delicious! They care very much about what you want, and work hard to get what you ask for. We usually get the beef taco salad, cheese quesadilla, and the shrimp chimichanga. They don't bathe their food in liquid cheese to hide everything like other places do, you get to experience many wonderful flavors. Allow a little extra time as they work hard to make sure you're meal is perfect... but it's worth waiting a few extra minutes... believe me. :) read more

Great food, great prices! Warm chips with yummy salsa and whole pinto beans. Delicious! Fresh look and taste with wonderfully seasoned meat. read more

Taco Grill - Mexican Near Me - Boiling Springs, South Carolina

This place is nothing special on the outside. However, the food is simply amazing. For a small town joint, he has beef cheek and beef tongue in the menu. (You don't have to get it, but it's amazing) The beef brisket is my wife's favorite and is a top choice of mine as well. The ONLY downside to this place is the wait time after order. It is not an extremely quick process, but WE'LL worth the few minutes to get your food. read more

My friend and I were very pleased with our meal. The meat was cooked very nicely and you c an choose what toppings you want on your taco, torta or tostada. You won't be disappointed!! read more

The best real Mexican around! Fresh cilantro, homemade corn tortillas and salsa with flavor! Had the carne Asada tacos and chimichanga! Don't let the outside storefront scare you - this is the real deal! read more

My first time trying the Taco Grill. To all my Boiling Springs neighbors- you have GOT to eat here. Absolutely the best taco I have ever eaten. Amazing food for a great price from very friendly owners. We will be back! read more

Great find! Food was fresh, delicious and inexpensive! I had the burrito with steak it was so big I couldn't finish! Will definitely be back! read more

Prices are really cheap here but the food is just not good. No cheese on almost all of our entrees, bland meats that are chewy and grisly and staff that look a bit sketchy. We ordered to go for two families and no one was really impressed by their food. They are nice, though. read more

A coworker told me about Taco Grille and I'm just sad she had not told me about it sooner. Sooo incredible fresh and authentic for a mere $2. Best little secret in Spartanburg. read more

The food here is really good. You get good portions and all reasonably priced. Problem is you never know if they are going to be open or not. And God forbid you want to call in an order. You might get someone to actually answer answer 1 day out of a month. And half of those times they will pick it up and hang up on you. This is very unprofessional. read more

Yummy food and very kind service. We were made to feel like family.

hella bomb. went in here today and ordered a beef taco salad, chicken chimichanga, and beef tostada. It was all under $20 and was such a good proportion. It's very authentic for sure. The ingredients were very fresh and the flour tortilla was so flaky and not to soft or hard for all three items! This place is so great for munchies or dinner because they are very filling sizes. read more

This place is incredible!!! Everything that I've had there is delicious! Their carne asada is to die for. Plus their prices are so low! I constantly find myself overtipping​ because I feel like they do not charge enough for their quality and quantity of food. The service takes a little time, but it's sooo worth it. read more

I have stopped here twice for a quick to-go lunch of two soft tacos (one chicken, one beef). Both times I have been 100% impressed and satisfied with the fresh ingredients and taste. The prep time can take a little bit, but it will be worth it! read more

The food is fantastic here. Authentic Mexican. However they should offer chips and salsa. They also should have icewater as an option for a drink. If they fix these two things this place is fantastic. read more

So so so good, they load you with food and the prices are affordable. It is actually Hispanic owned so it's authentic and not that "American Mexican". Food is seasoned to a tee and delicious with every bite. Now that we've got that out of the way, let's look at the bad stuff. Please don't go in and order, your food will be ready 1 hour later and that's minimum. The wait is long, like Cheesecake Factory long. When you call it in, they don't ask for a name, so hopeful someone doesn't order the same as you and they give them your plate. Sometimes the cashier can't speak English but that's no biggie because it is a Hispanic restaurant. Plus someone who does speak English will usually step in. Just the wait is brutally, shoot order this when you know you're lunch break is 2 hours away. read more

Only problem is his hours. I have tried to take clients on no less than 15 times at 12:00 and the doors are locked and no one is there. The hours posted on the door are not correct. It is usually around 12:30 if you are lucky. By far the best true Mexican food in Spartanburg county. This is coming from a guy that lived in California for 10 years where you can get true Mexican food not TexMex food read more

This was a very nice little authentic Mexican tacos restaurant that myself and two of my coworkers stopped into about 30 minutes before closing time on a Sunday night. The staff was very nice and helpful and the food was superb! read more

Been coming to Taco Grill since the first week it opened and I have *never* been disappointed. The food is great and it's totally worth the wait for fresh tacos, burritos, nachos, etc. Staff is very welcoming, they almost seem like old friends now! If you're in the area stop by and try it out, you're going to l read more

...Hidden Diamond in the Rough Needs Big Flashing LED Arrow Sign Out Front Near Street to Point and Advertise "Great Food 4 Cheap!"... Found this remarkable little gem by accident the other day, as I turned around in their parking lot. Hadn't noticed it before. Hadn't even heard of it before. I have lived in Boiling Springs for the past 11 years, only a mile and a half away. I know Route 9 like the back of my hand. Unless you know it's there, you will miss it. If you do know it's there and you are looking for it, don't blink or you will still miss it. Hint: it's in that little strip mall, along with VooDoo Tattoo, Mi Raza Mexican Market, and Money Tree. Right across the street from Panda Chinese. My family and I absolutely LOVE Mexican food (especially authentic!), and we have enjoyed Los Mexicanos just down the road, for many years. However, we have no desire to go back. Not since discovering our new favorite, Taco Grill. The food there is amazingly tasty. Perfect, actually. The price cannot be beat. They could easily charge more and no one would complain. I can cook Mexican, but I could not make it this good, nor for less money. Seriously delicious and ridiculously affordable grub. I was born/raised in New York, where we had plenty of authentic Mexican food choices. I have Hispanic friends whom have fed me home-cooked meals on many occasions. I spent Christmas Eve a couple of years ago at my son's girlfriends' house (who is Mexican). She, her Mom, and her sisters had cooked all day long just to feed us. It was all so very good, don't get me wrong. But the food at Taco Grill is the best Mexican food that I have ever had. Hands-down. Sure, it's not the prettiest place, but it's clean, well-lit, and it's in a safe location. Not the friendliest place, either. The girl at the counter really should smile, but I hear the owner guy is a doll and makes up for (her) lack of personality. There are no funky odors, the temperature is comfortable, as is the seating. If you are worried about the 5-10 minute wait while your food is skillfully prepared for you with FRESH ingredients and crafted by hand from scratch, well then you might just want to try one of the many fast food joints offered in Boiling Springs. Otherwise, just be quiet and wait. Bring a book or magazine. Relax for a few minutes or catch up on texts/email. Not a big deal. You will be happy you did.. it's so worth the wait. And with $2 tacos stuffed generously with your choice of meat, cheese and veggies, who cares!? read more

The food is authentic, not Americanized... it's a small informal place but that's ok because the chef / owner has a great personality and speaks to you personally. The food is FRESH not microwaved, made to order (worth the short wait). EAT HERE. read more

In a very small strip center. You will miss it if you are in a hurry. Speaking of which: don't be if you plan to eat here. Everything is cooked to order, so patience is a must. I ordered two corn tacos and the queso. Totally worth the wait. read more

Being originally from Southern California I have been looking for an authentic Mexican "street taco" since moving here. Today I found it at Taco Grill. These are the real deal. The restaurant is clean but very boring to look at but the authentic food makes up for that. The menu is limited but sometimes it's best to stick to what you do best. I had the carne asada tacos "Mexican style" with just chopped onion and cilantro and some verde salsa. They were fantastic. The rice was light, fluffy and flavorful and the black beans were good also. My only complaint was that I originally ordered pollo (chicken) tacos but by mistake got steak instead but it ended up being good. We were the only ones when we arrived but the food still took about 20 minutes to arrive. The food made up for it though. I will definitely be back here. read more

Such an unexpected little food joint! Really good and inexpensive. The owner is nice as well.

I'm always a fan of authenticity and this place is definitely authentic! It's a family run business, so you should expect to wait awhile for your food (because everything is made from scratch and there are only a couple people working), but you should also expect to feel like part of the family. We ordered a sopes, 3 tacos, a burrito, and a chimichanga (an large amount of food for only $21). The menu is simples (which I usually prefer), but by no means limited when you consider the number of combination possibilities. Things we loved: (1) The spices on the meats (ground beef and al pastor), (2) The tortillas, especially the corn ones for the tacos (best I've ever had), and (3) The freshness and quality of the ingredients (beans, tomato, cilantro, onions). They also have these fruit ice cream bars that were an amazing dessert. The only hiccups were that (1) we ordered rice with the burrito and they didn't have any at the time, which actually was not a problem for us because even though we ordered the burrito with rice, we usually get them without; the cook also came back out at the end of the meal and said he had more rice now and offered to give us some (so sweet!), and (2) the meat was a little dry for my preference, but I've come to learn from several experiences at similar restaurants that a little dryer meat is typical. Overall, a great find and I will definitely be going back. read more
