    Limey pork tacos!
    Vanessa D.

    This is my second time here. I came in April or so. I ordered two pulled pork tacos and was disappointed. It wasn't seasoned like other pulled pork that I've had. It was mostly roasted with a dry rub. Some parts of the meat were pink and a couple bites had a mouthful of fat. My husband had the beef and said it was just okay. Both were juicy but my husband and I agreed the tacos lacked the zest and flavour if onion, cilantro and lime usually present in other tacos. Tonight they were also out of crispy fish, which was my first choice. Total bill for 4 tacos came to $14. We brought our own beverages. The server/cook gave us a deal, which was nice. Service was good: it was prepared quickly. There was no seating outside,except for two chairs widely spaced gracing the doorway. A picnic table would have been perfect. Instead if sitting in the blasting air-conditioning we opted for a bench not far on the sidewalk. It is what it is: a quick,relatively healthy dinner, and a chance to still savour the taste of summer.

    Great little hidden gem. Parked to do errands and saw it and popped in to try. Awesome taco. Flavors were great.

    Here's the crappy tacos I got after waiting for forty minutes.

    Waited for a long time for my order got told the new guy "fuckin' left". Then when I was standing there waiting for my order got told "I'm sure standing there will make it come faster though. " jerk. Won't be back.

    So good we couldn't wait to start eating.  Front of the tacolot on Nepean st.

    Fat Bastard Burrito - Small chicken burrito. Was only $5.99 on National Burrito Day April 4, 2024. And it came with a drink! What a great deal.

    TLDR: Fast food Tex-Mex place. Build your burrito/bowls. Tasty, lots of different toppings and no…read moreextra charge for guacamole. Regular prices are a bit high, but they often have specials. Fat Bastard Burrito is a chain from Toronto. Of all the fast food Tex-Mex chains (Chipotle, Mucho Burrito, BarBurrito, Quesada, etc.) I like Fat Bastard the most. They have the greatest variety of toppings and they have more unusual toppings like noodles, lol. They also don't charge you extra for guacamole, and most places only allow you pinto OR black beans, but here you can get both :) Their burritos are consistently tasty and always well wrapped and grilled. They have a Wednesday special where you can get a small taco for $6.99. They also have Cinco de Mayo specials , I think it was $5 or $6 for a small taco. And I discovered that April 4 is National Burrito Day and they had a small taco and a canned drink for $5.99. I especially loved that they had Bubly and it qualified as a canned drink (some restaurants charge you more for flavoured carbonated water). Bubly is my least favourite brand of flavoured carbonated water, but I prefer it over soda pop (regular or diet). This location is small with only 3 tables for eating in (2 tables for 2 and one table for 4). It's in the Hampton Park Plaza. Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot. (57)

    Decently priced, very quick, and super tasty. Hits right when you're in a rush, but is definitely…read morequick take-out food!

    Wow, who would think there'd be such a stellar taco place located in the little city of Ottawa? My…read morefriends and I visited from Toronto and were a little put off by the prices of the tacos but we were recommended this spot by so many locals, so we had to try it out. It did not disappoint. I had the tuna tartare, crispy fish, and grilled chicken taco. Surprisingly, the tuna tartare (the most expensive one) was my least favourite; something about it tasted too earthy and I couldn't taste the tuna that much as the other flavours were overpowering. The crispy fish is a must-try, and the grilled chicken is a pleasant surprise - you don't expect it to blow you away, but somehow it does. I also had a bite of the steak taco which was delicious.

On a Sunday night, it was not super busy but there were enough people that it didn't feel empty inside. A bit pricy but we also got drinks, and most trendy Mexican restaurants are like this these days. To start, I shared guac & chips - no complaints, we enjoyed and it was very fresh. The added tomatoes were nice. I ordered 3 tacos - the beef barbacoa was fine but the portion of dipping jus was tiny for 3 beef tacos. The best taco for me was the tuna tartare crispy taco. Loved the flavours and the fish was just delicious! My friends had the chicken tacos and said they were spicy but they liked them a lot. However, I did not enjoy the ox tongue taco and didn't finish it. I ordered it because all the reviews about it were so positive, but I didn't like how they just put two huge pieces of meat in a taco. It tasted very gamey and I didn't like the spongy texture either. The piña colada cocktail was yummy - I could taste fresh pineapple and it was very creamy.
