    Taco Mama! Service 4/5 Food 4.5/5 Price 5/5 Cleanliness 5/5 Wait. 2.5/5 The burrito bowl has amazing value and tastes great with the side of chips. The shrimp tacos are quite small but have amazing flavor. Very busy, line is out of the door!!!

    Excellent service. Food came out fast and tasted delicious. Margaritas were fantastic. Husband got the seasonal Watermelon marg, and I tried the Skinny marg since I've been busting my butt in the gym lately. It was much better than I anticipated, which was a pleasant surprise!

    Barbacoa & Chicken bowl - Delicious!

    Great atmosphere! The food was great and the service was spectacular!! I had a group of 11 and they got us in and served us so fast. And they didn't pressure us to leave. We had made an order mistake and they didn't hesitate to make it right. I can't speak highly enough of my experience. I'll be back next time I'm in town!

    Accepted military discount. Picnic tables and Open air seating was refreshing on the cooler summer afternoon. Music is very loud so it's not a place for deep conversation. Chips and salsa and fast Mexican food served to order. I didn't understand why the server girls were wearing short ill-fitting miniskirts. Surely that was not their original idea. It's not a place that I would bring the family, it's an adult atmosphere with the loud music, and mini skirts that need to be pulled down from time to time. I find it quite unsanitary actually. I don't want my servers pulling down their mini skirts and then touching my plate and glass... One way they could improve is that they ask you what toppings you want. Because I was brand new, I didn't understand about the great toppings and needed the prompting. It would've made for a more enjoyable meal.

    Love the place and atmosphere. Margaritas are great, service is fast and friendly. I just can't find anything that is great on the menu. I've tried plenty and none blow you away. But I'll be back to try them again

    BYO Beef Nachos

    Taco Mama is always consistent. I love that I'm able to order unlimited toppings on my burrito, nachos, etc. I feel like there's no other restaurant in Mobile that allows me to get my nachos exactly the way I want besides this place. The staff is always friendly and their portions sizes are great! I'm never able to finish everything in one sitting. All of the toppings are fresh and the queso is really yummy! The only thing I would change is how dry the shredded chicken and barbacoa meat options are.

    Taco Mama has really nailed the ambiance down. Their staff is great, the vibe is on point and the food comes in great quantity. What more could you ask for! The whole place is decorated and has a great look to it. Plenty of outdoor seating on a nice day or inside with the AC. I got the burrito bowl (with unlimited toppings! Including guac!) which was a normal size, but I have previously gotten the loaded nachos...and I couldn't finish it. TONS of food on those nachos. Highly recommend.

    Sampler
    Candiace S.

    Taco Mama was a recommendation from a friend while we were in town. It was a beautiful day in Mobile and the open air concept was nice. Since this was our first time, we ordered the sampler which had guacamole salsa and cheese queso. All three were really good. Usually places make guacamole and have it chunky with tomatoes etc. It was a great consistency with no tomatoes. The flavor was on point and the salsa and queso was just as good. I ordered a Barbacoa soft taco and a chicken taco with corn. The corn was out of this world tasty. It was Cumin infused with a Smokey flavor. The tacos were so yummy too. Why do we not have a Taco Mama in Canton or Woodstock, Ga. ????

    Passing by Mobile, we needed a place to grab lunch. Based on the reviews, we picked this place, and it was a total hit! Thank you, everyone in Yelp! All the ingredients were fresh, and the proteins were well prepared and tested delicious, we got steak on a bowl, shrimp on a salad, pork in a burrito, and ground beef in the tacos. The sauces were nice, from spicy to mild. Ambiance is casula, and the weather was so nice that they opened one of their garage doors!

    Their tacos are amazing and the service is incredible. They play music while you eat and sometimes have their big door open.

I know ala Cocina has a pretty good reputation. I scanned the online menu and it didn't take me long to find the birria tacos. It came with two sides. I decided to try the charro beans and Spanish rice. The email I received said my wait would be about 20 minutes. I drove to the restaurant and waited in my car for a bit. When I walked in the restaurant there was someone attending to some tables. The was a sign to ring the bell to get some service but the waitress saw me. I told her that I had an online order and within a few minutes my food was ready. When I got home I noticed there was chips and salsa in my bag as well as the other items I ordered. I didn't realize my meal came with chips and salsa. I guess that's not out of the ordinary but it was a pleasant surprise. Anyway I started with the rice and then with the beans. There was nothing really special with the rice but I don't think I've had charro beans. They seem to be beans with what seemed like vienna sausage. It didn't taste bad. I really didn't know what to expect. On the to birria tacos. The definite star of the show. Being that my food was take out there was some sogginess to the taco shell but the tacos held up pretty good. I dipped the first taco in the consommé (yes, I googled it). It was very savory and the meat was tender. I don't eat a lot of authentic Mexican food but I know what good food tastes like. I definitely would recommend the birria tacos from La Cocina.

    First off, I absolutely love their salsa, queso, and chips. They are some of the best in the…read morebusiness and they are just absolutely addictive. The chips are served nice and warm and have a light crunch to them, not overly heavy. Their salsa is just addictive and when you pair it with their queso, it's ridiculous. I ordered the chicken supreme dish I think is what it was called. Chicken breast flattened and nicely grilled, topped with mushrooms and onions and cheese. Serve with rice and beans, I couldn't finish at all, but I surely wanted to. The service was very friendly and attentive, mostly comfortable atmosphere. Loud patrons, a couple boot away, put a damp around things, but that's not really the fault of the restaurant, just inconsiderate, loud patrons. The only issue I have, is when we walked in the place just kind of smelled funky. They had a couple of candles lit, I think to mask the odor. And I really can't say what it was, but it was across between maybe garbage and trash smell. Aside from the unpleasant smell when you walk in, the food and service was on point. I would absolutely come back here for takeout.

Parking was easy for the area and well lit. We were seated quickly and the usual chips and salsa arrived pronto. Salsa was very tasty, likely made in house. Menu has almost too many options, everything you could want in a restaurant like this. Made our selections and the food was outstanding. Fresh, delicious, and spicy enough without being crazy hot. Server was prompt with tea refills and attentive to all our needs. Dining room was not overly loud even with a couple of large groups and a kids birthday party in full swing. Nice dinner and dining experience, we will return.
