I love the original location downtown. Myself and a couple of coworkers were at the airport area and needed some supper. I had to take them here. The location isn't as cool as the original, but huge and the food and service just as great! I got 3 tacos and street corn. General Homeboy, Thai shrimp and a cali chicken or something. All were phenomenal! My coworkers got a bowl and nachos. They were very happy also. The tacos here are unique and always the star of the show to me! Service was great. I would not hesitate to come back at all. read more

We have been to Taco Mamacita's on several occasions. We prefer this location over the original for several reasons. The host was incredibly friendly and quickly guided us to our table. The place wasn't busy so it was nice and quiet enough to converse. Our server also arrived quickly, was friendly and took our order for the app as well as drinks. We chose the chips and queso. It was tasty. We each had the two tacos with a side. We chose two Sloppy Jose's (our favorite, made with sloppy Joe meat instead of taco meat) and Mexican street corn. Excellent!! We enjoyed our meal so much. Will definitely return. read more

5 stars -- Do yourself a favor and order the Birria Tacos with Sweet Potato Fries. The food was outstanding -- bold flavors, great portions, and everything came out fresh. Washed it down with a Blue Moon and it was the perfect Friday night dinner. Highly recommend! read more

Taco Mamacita - Southwestern Street Taco Salad - Tacos Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I am not sure why this is currently a 3 star review. We had no negatives. From cocktails to service everything was perfect. My daughter says the music play list was "fire". The Diablo margarita was also fire, great heat. All the food was solid. We can in late on a Thursday night so wasn't busy. read more

I had high hopes for Taco Mamacita, I remember enjoying the location downtown. This one in Hamilton Place just didn't do it for me. It was pretty empty on a Monday night when we went. We were sat right away and our server was was friendly. The establishment is clean bathrooms are clean. I liked the feel of the restaurant beautifully decorated. It was the food that's causes this to have such a low rating for me. I don't mind food being expensive if I'm paying for quality. This meal was just expensive for no reason. Started with chips and queso and that was the best thing of the night. The margarita wasn't tasty for being strawberry flavored. The Birria tacos were some of the worst I've had. The shells were fried to the point of being so crunchy you could barely bite through it. The meat wasn't seasoned like with the basics: salt. The consume it comes with lacked flavor so dipping the Birria tacos in it was not helpful. As for the sides the Mexican corn had way too much chili powder on it you couldn't taste anything else and the Mexican rice was just meh also. I can cross this location off my list or hopefully they work through their kinks because Taco mamacita done right is delicious. read more

Good food great service ambiance very good we enjoy this place very much and go their frequently

I've been excited about this place going in at Hamilton Place since it was announced. Got to try it out and was so disappointed. The downtown location is one of our favorites but this place is trying too hard and not delivering on quality. It was dirty, food was cold and prices are outrageous. They need to get some help from the Northshore location and revamp themselves. We are not interested in giving this place a second chance. read more

I hate to be that guy but not sure we'll be coming back. The gold was very expensive for what would be an OK dinner, nothing to rave about. The Peruvian chicken was basically a rotisserie chicken, nothing to write home about. The tacos were definitely better than the chicken but still, not all that remarkable. The margaritas were very good, but since I'm not a big drinker , they didn't go very far to tilt my opinion of this place. Being from Nashville I had very high hopes. Maybe things will improve but I'll let other Yelpers pass along those updates. read more

This was our first time in and I'm so happy we gave it a try! The queso was very tasty and had enough density to stay on a chip, the mango salsa was soooo good!! I have issues with onions and since this salsa has no onions, I was able to eat it freely! Yay!! My margarita with Xicaru reposado mezcal and an upgrade of Cointreau was to die for delicious! My entree was so frigging good! I didn't take a pic, and don't remember the name, SORRY! But, it had 12 hour slow roasted half a chicken that was flash fried before serving. So moist and flavorful! I chose as my sides the street corn which was very good and sweet potato fries that were maybe the best I've ever had! Noel and Mattie at the bar were outstanding!! Please come check this fabulous spot out if you've not been here before!! read more

Came in a waiters five minutes to be sat down. Asked us for our food twice and still got the food wrong. Waited for the food for forty minutes and watched the waiter named Jake Q struggle to get a singular check for me and the people sitting beside us. That service makes me wanna never come back. read more

Food: Roasted Tomato, Mango, & Verde Salsas were all good. Mango and Verde were my favs. Roasted tomato was just ok. I had BLT taco, luau taco & street corn. They did not skimp on the shrimp or pork. Both were excellent. Street corn was delicious too! Service: Our server was Mike R. I believe is the last initial. Excellent service! Restaurant was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We have had excellent service at all restaurants during our trip to Chatt! read more

Super affordable and delicious food. It's great to have a restaurant like this in the Hamilton Place area.

Food was terrible and portion size to price/value was criminal! $16.99 for some garbage nacho $13.99 for a Cali Cobb with a condiment size chicken to add on top. The Jalapeño Ranch was the only redeeming aspect, otherwise, this place needs to be gone! read more

Where to begin....We waited over 25 minutes for queso & chips/salsa - and that involved several servers & 1 manager. We saw 4 other tables order after us & eat before our entrees arrived. The server was new & apparently forgot to "send" our orders to the kitchen. Management blamed her, she blamed kitchen. Either way, the service was absolutely terrible. They comped us 10% which barely covered the cost of the 30 minute queso dip. The food was actually very good so I think the kitchen knows what's it's doing. read more

I should have gone to Taco Bell. Resturant wasn't very busy but I was essentially ignored the entire time I was there. I waited with an empty cup for the duration of my meal after one of the many servers told me they would get me more. I think I had 4 different servers over my time there. I think everyone there was just there to celebrate a birthday and those large parties took all the attention. When I actually got the food it was just ok. I've certainly had worse but I've definitely had better. I wasn't expecting authenticity but I expected a bit more presentation and better quality for the price. Good sweet potato fries though. read more

Taco Mamacita - Tacos Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Let's start of with the service, the service was the best I've ever had they were so friendly and welcoming. The vibes of the place were also very good very clean and comfortable place not disgusting in any meaning. The main problem was the food. The food wasn't good at all very little choices when it came to different Mexican food, mostly just the tacos there. The salsa was also not so good very sweet and not flavorful at all. read more

The food and drink menu is very enticing but overall experience was a disappointment. Drinks were overpriced, the margarita tasted like Minute Maid lemonade. The signature taco menu is unique but the tacos are kind of just thrown together and dry. We had a group of 7, 3 people were served first. Ten minutes later they remembered the other 4 orders.... Probably will not be going back read more

First thing you notice is the atmosphere. It's joy and excitement. The smells are amazing! This location feels bigger than the most their location. The food is top notch! Their queso is one of my favorites. I have had most things on the menu and can say they've all been amazing. I tend to gravitate to the tacos or nachos. The staff at this location are new but do not lack because of that. They are all doing an amazing job! read more

Everything was great! Great service! Great food! Great drinks! Hadn't been in a while and was impressed at all of the improvements.

I have been wanting to try this place for so long and I am so glad I did. And what better day than taco Tuesday The restaurant was pretty full when I got there at 630 but no wait. We were greeted right away by Sam to take our drink orders. She was awesome! I will definitely ask for her the next time. We started with the salsa trio and guacamole with lots of chips. We all had tacos -so good! We each had different sides- the jalapeño slaw was spicy and delish, plantains- wow!! Great selection of beers and margs read more

We sat on the patio and loved our dinner. Tacos were delicious, they have the BEST sweet potato fries, and churros for dessert was the perfect ending. I was a little hesitant due to some reviews but it was as amazing as I had hoped it would be from dining at other Taco Mamacitas. read more

My husband and I just tried out the new Taco Mamacita at Hamilton Place while meeting up with a good friend of ours. We realize they just opened, but they could make some improvements for sure. The waitress was sweet and kind, so this post is not targeted at her. We got seated and the manager (I'm assuming) said he's not going to be our server, but took our drink order and appetizer. Once we ordered our appetizer, which was $8.00 just for chips and queso; that took 30 minutes to get out to our table. We then ordered our entree's and that took FOREVER to come out. We spent 2, almost 3 hours here. 45 minutes waiting on a table and then we had to wait what seemed like forever on our food, which was just mediocre. It cost about $95 for everything, including drinks. Unless they do some major improvements, we will never be back. Highly unfortunate. read more

My son and I attended the Grand Opening yesterday and were really pleased with the food and the atmosphere and decor of the new building . It has a huge wrap around bar with two huge TVs mounted behind the bar on both sides. Outside is a large patio as the weather warms up I'm sure it will be packed and very popular with the locals. I had a Sloppy Joe Taco / with a Salad my son had a huge Beef / Cheese Queso as an appetizer. The food came out hot and delicious. We will definitely be back. read more

Taco Mamacita @ Hamilton Place BEWARE OF THE CHICKEN BONES‼ Wife and I went to the TACO on 4/14/24 I ordered the TACO ROYALE: double-stacked taco with, roasted chicken, Surprisingly to find a BIG Chicken BONE‼ In the Middle of the first TACO ROYALE that I was eating... Thinking WTF when I bit into it‼ The Waiter asked if everything was good. I pointed to the Bone he said "it's a Wish-Bone... for Good Luck" being sarcastic!!! I told him "it wouldn't have been Good Luck for y'all if my Granddaughter had gotten choked on it‼" I requested to talk to the Manager. He wanted to give me a couple of coupons to use when I come back. I asked if he could do something about today's CHECK thinking to myself that I would not be back to use the coupon... After that question and being ignored for several minutes by the manager and the Waiter. I finally got up and walked up to the manager to confront him again the General Manager basically cut the price of our meal in half!!! read more

Wow!!! My friend and I ate here this past Saturday, and it was absolutely perfect!! We were greeted by an extra friendly hostess. She let us know there was a wait (not surprising for a Sat.) She also let us know we could wait at the bar in the meantime, which we did! We had mojitos (so fresh and refreshing) and skinny margaritas which can sometimes be "fake" tasting, but not these!! The bartender was busy, but just as lovely and accomodating as could be. She told me her name and I can't remember it. We ordered quac and queso at the bar that was super yummy!! Their quac is my fave. Once we were seated we had a sweet server named Shae. She was attentive, without being overly so! I had the Mexican chopped salad with rotisserie chicken added. I am somewhat of a "salad expert" LOL, and this one is on point!!! It is really fresh and the chicken is amazing!! I also had an order of beans on the side...yummy!!!! The food came in a timely manner, which was also a plus. Overall, a fantastic experience, especially for a newer spot - way to go Taco, great food, service, and vibe...you've done it again!!!!!! Oh, and sorry for the lack of pics, we were too busy scarfing it down. read more

I believe this was their second day being open but Im going to start with 3*'s. Although the food was amazing & our server was very good & did all she could, this was a very disappointing night. We had family who were driving in from Memphis & met us there. We were quoted a 30-45 minutes wait time, got seated an hour & forty minutes later. At one time, I could see more empty tables than seated ones. They did not have their beer license yet. Getting our food took forever and when it's explained that "we don't want to crash the kitchen" is why it's taking so long, just doesn't sound that good. The deal breaker for me is having to pay for chips & salsa. I have been very excited about the opening of this place but it was such a let down that we spent over 3 hours here & $145 for 3 margs & dinner for 4 people. Not the best night for our guests. Bottom line, they obviously didn't have the staff to support an opening so why force it & disappoint people. I am sure I will go again, but believe it will be a long time as to let them get up and running properly. P.S. when they have a decent crowd, parking is impossible as well. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch looking for some good Mexican food. Taco's were $5 each a la carte and came out quickly from the kitchen but were pretty bland and not anywhere near good Mexican food. Crossed this place off our restaurants to go back to. read more

Food came out cold, we mentioned it and they apologized then they brought us one of the two was good the nachos came as the the same ones they took back and they just added meat and heated up. Frustrating. But I get it they were busy. read more

Service in particular from Destiny and Ben during our meal was excellent! We had the Pollo con Mole, Chips and Salsa, and a variety of tacos. If heat is too much a concern, I may suggest against the Baja Fish, but if you're a spice hound, the red jalapeño has some nice bite. Quite reasonably priced in addition. Very trendy and modern interior as well. read more

The food is always solid here. The front staff at the new Hamilton Place location could use some serious coaching on hospitality skills; the sullen "We'll get to you when we want to" approach is not helping the brand. It's a pity because Taco Mama is good. read more

This location is nothing like the downtown location. The food was ok didn't taste bad but.. definitly not the same as the other location!

Great service and food! A friend suggested we (a group of 10) meet here for lunch today and I was a little apprehensive because of some of the negative reviews I read. However, the staff was very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to work with one of our party who has gluten and corn allergies. They even offered to check the ingredients in several sauces to find something that was safe to eat - it's hard to find service like that these days! Our tacos and cheese dip were very good, and everyone enjoyed their orders. Be advised, there are a few items that are very spicy though, so be sure to talk with your waiter if you don't like the heat. We enjoyed our visit and would eat there again if we're in the area. read more

Food was mediocre. Service was slow. Hostess was very unfriendly. Food way overpriced! Will not go back and will not recommend.

Well the first time I came here everything was great. The nachos and the service. Today I wanted to take a friend so she could experience the food and everything. From the moment we walked in until the minute we left it was a horrible experience. The hostess acted like she was being inconvenienced while asking us how many in our party. Got seated in about five minutes. The whole vibe in there was off. All the servers looked miserable. Ours was no better. My friend wanted to order a taco with fries but the server said the taco couldn't come with fries. So as my friend was then trying to hurry to make another order the server looked a little agitated. She ended up ordering a taco that came with a tiny bit of meat, cilantro and one piece of bacon laying across it. Weirdest thing I've ever seen. The food didn't come out for about 30 minutes and it was cold. Both orders were cold. It obviously was sitting up there for a while. When I told the server our food was cold and it probably was sitting too long she said oh ya probably. Then she said oh sorry I'll make a note of it. Then quickly brought back our receipt. We never once saw a manager walking around and she never offered to get one. We paid full price for our cold food and we will never go back. I don't understand people these days who don't take their jobs seriously and managers who also aren't on top of things. A manager should be on site and noticed by patrons while running a restaurant. If there was one we never saw them and we were there an hour an a half. read more
