    Tacos are solid. Guac is fresh but you can taste the onions Chips are hot out the fryer The lab tacos with chipotle were good The restrooms are outside and around the corner The Biria taco was fine soft and tender but not the best I've ever had Kids said chicken quesadillas were fine Overall the food is fine

    The best flan ever!!

    Such a cool spot with great menu. From tacos to quesadillas and bowls, everything super tasty!! The seafood tacos are so different from everything that we had ever taste ,so fricking good!! I even had a vegetarian bowl that was off the charts with black beans that are made in-house from scratch, and marinated mushrooms, so good!! And they also have natural juices lime tamarind, horchata and floral de Jamaica. And dont forget the most delicious 3 leches and flan.. believed me the flavors are unique! Un lugar genial con un menú buenísimo. Desde tacos hasta quesadillas y tazones, ¡todo riquísimo! Los tacos de mariscos son tan diferentes a todo lo que habíamos probado, ¡deliciosos! Incluso pedí un tazón vegetariano espectacular con frijoles negros caseros y champiñones marinados, ¡delicioso! Y también tienen jugos naturales de tamarindo, limón, horchata y floral de Jamaica. Y no olviden las deliciosas 3 leches y el flan... ¡Créanme, los sabores son únicos!

    Tried Taco Lab on a friend's rec and wow totally worth it. * *Food*** Appetizer: The "Elote Fire Starter" (off the cob) with a surprise chicken taquito on top?  So good. Chips and salsa were free. salsa wasn't my fave, but I'm picky. Tacos: Not your typical tacos. Homemade tortillas with crispy cheese edges are amazing. Loved the "Tulum Experiment" (shrimp!! best I've had). "Pollo Alquimia" was good, but light on the pineapple sauce, the sauce is too good to be lost within other flavors. Drinks: Horchata & tamarindo agua fresca = super refreshing, not too sweet. Yes! Please. Prices: not the cheapest but totally fair for creative, high-quality tacos, the area and prices overall! ***Vibes:***Didn't get pics (ugh, I know!) That kind of service keeps people coming back.Small, super clean, has a sink to wash up (love that). Best for small groups 4 to 6... or grab-and-go. ***Service:*** Marco (owner) is the sweetest. Helpful, welcoming, truly great service. Would def go back. Highly recommend!

    The Front Counter lady was nice and the food was really good 10/10 would recommend.Flavors were good

    Very fun and flavor tacos. I was impressed by how well the shrimp was cooked. Very sleek inside which was surprising for this style of restaurant. The food runner was extremely courteous and attentive. More than I would have imagined. Only need a more parking and patrons.

    My husband and I arrived within 30 minutes of closing, unsure if we would be able to order but it was no problem. I wish we had given ourselves more time to enjoy the food while they were open, but we still had an excellent experience. The service was top-notch, the manager was extremely friendly and happy to answer any questions we might have! The food was prepared fresh and let me tell you everything was freaking delicious. I can see now why this place already has so many five star reviews. They also have a happy hour on Tuesdays that I will definitely be checking out in the future! The street tacos were fantastic, as were the sides, and the queso and chips were 10/10! They also have a back patio that will be enjoyable once it cools down a bit!

    The former King Bao on Fairbanks in Winter Park has been transformed into the absolutely lovely Taco's Lab and I could not recommend it more highly! You have to have something special to open - just 3 months ago - down the road from Hunger Street Tacos, and Taco's Lab is just that. Special. The staff are very friendly and my food was fresh and wonderful. Everything - including their chips and tortillas - is homemade. I had maybe the best horchata I've ever had in my life here today. The elote was sublime! My birria taco and another with shrimp - fantastic! I could not rave any higher about Taco's Lab and I recommend it to every Yelpers...and then some. Gracias!

    Tacos!

    Wow. Every single one of the tacos were fantastic. This is our new taco spot. It looks like a hole in the wall but dont let the outside fool you. The food and service were excellent.

    Traditional Taco with chorizo and the Tulum taco with shrimp. Both were excellent.
    Candy R.

    We stopped and had Taco Lab bases on the reviews, and I'm so glad we did. The tacos and service were excellent. If you love tacos like I do stop here.

    Sara D.

    We were really happy to stumble upon this place! Everything we ordered was delicious and I can't wait to go back. I had the veggie taco and rice - both were very good! The service was quick and everyone there was friendly! I'd definitely recommend and will be back!

    Cute little spot in Winter Park with delicious food! Loved the bowl and quesadilla, service is fast and the staff is friendly and accommodating

    Tacos done really well. No gimmicks, just quality ingredients, prepared precisely, and served with a smile. It refreshing to find a business that understands the basics!

    First, the service was on point. Very friendly staff and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing! This is probably some of the best Birria tacos I've had. The quesadilla was off the charts. The shredded chicken was so juicy and delicious. The shrimp in the rice bowl was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The place was just a few months open and they are working on adding an outdoor patio which so far is coming together nicely. This can be a perfect ambiance for when the weather is nice outside. I'm already thinking of going back next week again.

It was a speakeasy-esque vibe and I loved it. We ordered an old-fashioned and espresso martini which were quickly brought to our table. They indicated that the espresso martini was the best one in town, so naturally I had to try it. I would definitely say it takes top five. We sat outside and had a great evening at this place. We will definitely be back and look forward to it.

We got a dirty martini and negroni to start. Awesome presentation and they came out pretty quickly. We were also given a free glass of prosecco, which was an excellent touch. For appetizers we ordered the Crispy Bang Bang Lion's Mane, which had a great texture and was extra crispy, and the Citrus Spiced Carrots. This sat in a bed of ricotta cheese and hot honey. The perfect balance of sweet and salty. I'd order this 10 times over again. For our mains we got the Fresh Grilled Fish of the day, which was a snapper with mashed sweet potato and broccolini and a pan to pour a lemon sauce over top. This was a perfect portion, the fish was grilled perfectly, and I could have eaten an entire bowl of their sweet potatoes. My husband got the Bronzed Florida Grouper, which had a risotto with shrimp in it. Both of these dishes were INCREDIBLE. To finish, we got the Sky High Citrus Meringue Pie.

There's a giant ice cube and a bamboo leaf or something and very little drink to drink. Not sure what to make of this because as soon as I was deciding if I liked it or not, it was gone. Wouldn't order this again. Second, I tried a $17 Adam & Eve. I wish the matcha was much stronger. There's a place in Tampa called Tori Bar that has a super duper matcha tasting cocktail. This one was much lighter. It was fine, not my favorite. Maybe I'd bring a date here sometime, but wouldn't go out of my way to come here.
