The food is really fabulous! Unique flavors, adventurous food. You can tell it's good based on the line to get in! The restaurant is noisy, but it's not surprising given the crowd. I wish there were more places to sit while waiting for a table. read more

HOLY TACOS. We had literally been trying to go to this place for years with our friends who told us about its magical-ness but were never there when they were open but it finally happened!! Their food was so incredibly fresh and full of flavor I wished I had a bigger stomach so I could have had 6 tacos instead of only a measly 3. Their carnitas and vegetable taco were so amazing and I would highly recommend adding at least those two into your taco rotation if you decide to go (which you absolutely should)!! read more

Pros: well crafted tacos with quality ingredients. Extensive wine list and a full service bar. I appreciate the above par chips and salsa even if you do have to pay extra for it. Cons: plastic sippy cups for my water, and a non-alcoholic beverage menu that is lacking. read more

The tacos at TacoVino taste exactly what I'd expect tacos to taste like from a Wine Bar/Taco restaurant in Corvallis, Oregon to taste like... In my opinion, the tortilla shouldn't detract from the overall taste of the taco. It should either add flavor or stay neutral. In the case of TacoVino, the tortillas were so bland that it actually took away from the flavor of the ingredients inside the taco. It's almost remarkable how bad the tortillas were. I found the carne asada tough -- strips of carne asada should be tender so that I can chew through it and not pull the whole strip out when I try to take a bite of my taco. Finally, it's kind of pricey for mediocre tacos. There are plenty of hidden gems in Oregon for great tacos, and, unfortunately, TacoVino is not one of them. Also, I find it extremely amusing that critical reviews are being responded to with song lyrics and YouTube links. I can't wait to see what song I get sent! read more

"Service was not on Flick" I was really excited about this new restaurant that opened up in Corvallis but honestly it wasn't anything special besides the DIY Guacamole! We waited for 30 minutes for a table when there was three tables that were opened but had dirty dishes on them and needed to be bused. Once we got seated we ordered right away because we didn't want him to leave!! So we ordered the DIY Guacamole that was AMAZING, especially with that peanut sauce but it took them 30 minutes to bring it out to the table.... then I got the fish taco and the spicy squid taco. The spicy squid was interesting but it I felt like it was missing something. I think it really needed some avocado and sour cream to balance the heat from the verde sauce. The fish taco was HORRIBLE. DO NOT GET THIS TACO! As a pescatarian I have few options and this taco really disappointed me. The fish was completely over cooked. It was like cardboard which really suck. Also, the lack of a creamy, cilantroy, lime sour cream easily could have saved this taco. Honestly wouldn't advice going to this place again for lunch unless you are prepare to have it be a 3 hour excursion! read more

If you're a taco fan, go here. If you're not a taco fan, still go here. The cocktails are great, tacos are great, and service is quick. Tip: get the DIY guacamole, it's fun and tasty! read more

Nice!! Went back today to get the Korean BBQ beef taco again! Same reaction!! EXCELLENT! The MARGARITAS WERE GREAT TOO! Service was awesome! Can't wait to visit Corvallis again! I'll be back! read more

Did not have good service, and the homemade tortillas were not good, and the fish tasted funky( aka to strong fish which in my experience means it was cheap and not to fresh) Was just disappointed after being excited about this place! I'd come for happy hours chips and salsa and drinks but that's all :( read more

Very unique restaurant for Corvallis! That building has always provided a unique dining experience but the restaurants have always been "meh". I had the curry chicken and fish taco. Both had very fresh ingredients and great flavor. The "DIY" guacamole appetizer is awesome. Would recommend as well. read more

Very friendly staff, insanely good food, excellent selection of drinks, and good decor.

I've been going to this restaurant for awhile and I was very disappointed with the last visit. The DIY guacomole keeps going up in price and we thought the salsa came with it, which it does not so had to pay extra for salsa. We ran out of chips and the waitress asked if we would like more and we said yes and then she proceeded to help more tables and we waited and waited and finally someone brought the chips. The taco was very greasy, like grease was dripping from it. I will not be going back, I was very, very disappointed. read more

Updated after receiving insults upon posting review. Original - Very underwhelmed. Compared to Tacovore in Eugene or any of the many of places we frequented while living in California TacoVino falls flat. Fish tacos, chopped up, over cooked and BONES in the FISH? A wait time of 40+ mins once ordered? Why 40+ minutes when there were so few tables? 20 mins to receive chips n salsa. Not enough tables and on and on. Friendly server isn't enough bother with a return trip. Tacovore? I'll see you next week and drive past TacoVino. Update - Flavors themselves were so-so. Service and chef were very friendly. Hate based message sent by either friends or family of founders are very inappropriate and do not warm heart or interest in returning. Deeper dive: Prices are above market for Tacos, drinks are SF Bay Area prices (in Corvallis?) and plate prices range to $18, once again in, in Corvallis? Seriously? read more

Love the boss and all the employees here, you guys are awesome neighbors. Hopefully soon I will be economically viable enough to eat here, but GREAT PEOPLE to SUPPORT! read more

This was wonderful healthy Mexican food!! The service was excellent!! If your looking for good food and great service I highly recommend. The price wasn't to bad either. read more

We ordered a variety of tacos, a bunch of carnitas tacos which were drenched in oil that we could not even enjoy it with all the grease dripping from the soggy tortilla, we also ordered a bunch of the korean bbq tacos and truly, I have never tasted something so foul. I can only compare the taste of the korean bbq tacos to what manure smells like. It is overpriced, poor quality, and an odd mix of flavors. Nothing traditional. $20 for a small jar of margarita. People were nice and maybe we caught them at a bad time but would never go here again. read more

I can't recommend it enough! Great food! Definitely get the DIY guacamole, it's huge (enough for six people) and delicious! The sangria is a gift from the heavens. My favorite tacos are the Carnitas and the Curry Chicken. If you like spicy, ask for a side of the spicy peanut sauce and put that on everything. So good. The atmosphere is really fun, the owners did a great job creating the space. The staff is all really friendly and accommodating. They are getting really popular, so be ready to wait for a table if it's their busy dinner time. It's worth it! read more

Definitely recommend eating here! The food is always delicious and tastes so fresh. I particularly love their salads, but the tacos are all fantastic. I was informed by our waitress that the food is organic and I actually think fairly healthy all considered. I will say I have had several waitresses attempt to "upsell me", meaning they ask if you'd like something added but make it sound like it just comes with the meal. I wonder if they are pressured to do that by their management to make extra. With that being said, the staff is still generally very nice. Another shot out to the lychee sangria, sooo good. read more

I'm really not sure where to start with this review for TacoVino. I love this place. Everything about it; the food, the decor, the people.... the mescal. TacoVinos tacos are innovative masterpieces. The combination of flavors dance from the sublime to explosions all in one bite. They pull flavors from across multiple cuisines to create a menu that is inspiring. Their "specials" are always wild and fun. TacoVino is my favorite restaurant in Corvallis. Nobody in Corvallis is creating food like they do here... we are very lucky. Oh.... and the mescal selection. Wow. read more

This place was fantastic! The staff was very friendly and the food was amazing! The Nacos with bacon was delicious and very flavorful...it was devoured in minutes with my family. The animal style taco and Korean taco was savory and packed with protein. Would recommend those two hands down! The kids meals were very creative. They were on backs of books. I read the books to my kids which provided entertainment for them and a quiet movement while we waited for our food! Loved this place and will be definitely be back with the family! read more

I loved everything about this place. We had to wait at 2pm on a Wednesday but it was worth it. The staff was friendly. They don't wear name tags or uniforms and I liked that. It's casual. It's relaxed. Order the guacamole for sure. They don't add tomatoes or weird stuff. The chicken curry taco will blow your mind. The mushroom taco is divine. My husband loved the short rib taco but I can't say I tried it. I would definitely make the 75 minute drive to Corvallis to eat here. Seriously, the food on the coast mostly sucks. Bravo! Taco Vino! read more

1 hour wait to have my food be extremely bland. My partner and I went to dinner at TacoVino with the hopes that it will be amazing (all of our friends have been raving about it). I ordered the pork pozole rojo and it had zero flavor... ZERO!!! I had to ask for salt and some salsa to make the dish taste decent. The place was crowded and smelled funky. We won't be coming back. read more

AMAZING tacos!! The jackfruit was the best one I had, and the queso is to die for! Super fun drinks too!

Finally--delicious, innovative Mexican food in Corvallis at a ridiculously reasonable price. This place has only been open for 2 weeks, and already they're hitting it out of the park. Atmosphere: Love the funky graffiti style art and the music! Staff: The best. The staff is so friendly and both of the owners are great. John was greeting everyone at the door when my friends and I came for dinner tonight. There was already a line outside and Jason (the other owner and chef) was personally coming out to give bowls of chips and salsa to the groups that were waiting. Pure class. Food and drinks: I've eaten there twice. The first time was during the soft opening when only half the menu was available. First of all, they make their own corn tortillas, which are excellent. At the chef's suggestion I tried the tempeh tacos (not my usual deal but hey, chef's choice!), and I couldn't believe how good they were. My husband and I also loved the barbacoa taco. Tonight when I went back and ate those chips and salsa....I would come here just to eat these. I am seriously picky after growing up in the southwest, and really--this is some of the best salsa I've ever had. Freshly made chips, and the curry chicken taco was also a surprisingly delicious twist. And don't even get me started on the ginger-cardamom margarita... In all, my bill tonight was $15 for two delicious tacos, a margarita, and chips and salsa. It's happy hour prices all day long. Taco Vino, welcome to Corvallis. You'll be seeing a lot more of me! read more

Best sangria I've ever had! I prefer the red, but they're all good, and the tacos aren't bad either! I'd love a few more options for vegetarian tacos, but overall I can't complain! Update: Was here over the weekend, and they had a (vegetarian) roasted beet taco! Made my day! read more

I had been very reluctant to try Taco Vino as I grew up in New England when Mexican food was nowhere! I never developed a taste for hot, spicy food. I was pleasantly surprised with the recommendation of our pleasant server! I found the fish taco delicious, but a little clumsy to eat; I used the fork to cut away and eat some of the fish filet before picking it up to eat as one usually eats a taco. I especially enjoyed the vegetarian taco, which was slightly sweet with crunchy veggies. Obviously, they have an interesting wine list, but as a beer drinker, I found more than a few I could choose from and be happy about my choice. We had two rambunctious young boys with us who enjoyed their reasonably priced cheese quesadillas and there were many other children and families present. The atmosphere is a bit chaotic and loud, but has a celebratory mood about it. There was not one open table. My hubby kindly got in line at 5:00 pm, 1/2 an hour before seating time to insure we got a table. The line was still forming as we left. Definitely a place I'd go to again as long as hubby is still willing to do the quae wait! Only reason for the missing star. read more

This is a unique restaurant in Corvallis with a wonderful vibe. It is casual enough to bring my children yet also has a warm atmosphere to sit and have a sangria and taco later at night. I have tried most of their tacos; I have yet to try the entrees. The taco menu is very diverse, non-traditional and affordable. You can't miss ordering their vegetarian tacos - they are especially good! My favorites were the Delicata Squash taco and the Hongos (mushroom) taco. Did I mention the sangria?! The white and red sangria on tap is delicious. This new restaurant is a welcome addition to downtown and the waterfront. I will definitely be back. read more

Incredible food and absolutely incredible service!! We got there and there was a wait but the owner made sure we were able to order drinks and chips while we were waiting. He went out of his way, while he was seating people, to make sure that we got the drinks and chips we ordered while we were waiting for a table. The fact that he took the time to make sure we got our chips and drinks while he was running around proves the quality of the service. Then we ordered the flaming cheese and that did not disappoint! The tacos topped it off and were great as well! If I could rate this restaurant higher I would. You have to check it out if you are looking for great food and great service!! read more

My family and I were on a road trip and passing through Corvallis and decided to have a quick dinner stop. I am thrilled to say that they have Very delicious tacos and selection of salsas. Unique flavor profiles for all the tacos, and are all equally as amazing! Service was quick and timely. Waiter/ waitresses were friendly and respectful. Would highly recommend and will be coming back as soon as possible. read more

The tacos that we got from here were at best, mediocre. I know this isn't supposed to be a Mexican restaurant, but I think it needs to have tacos served with rice and beans. Also, the price for a single taco is a little too high, but that's cause I am used to street tacos. read more

Tacos were delicious! On the spendy side considering smaller portion size. Atmosphere was fun and upbeat.

This was a great find! Amazingly great tacos! Liked the variety. Friendly staff. Highly recommend. And if you want a cocktail - highly recommend Danny Ocean! read more

The food is amazing, however the only owner is very condescending and misogynistic. He is so disrespectful every time I have came here.

We had only been here once during the soft opening and thought it was just okay. I have eaten here twice in the past week and was gobsmacked. Best tacos I've ever had. Their standard offerings are good (and include plenty of vegetarian options and unique flavor combos), but I recommend trying their specials. One was a chicken skin taco. Who does that?! TacoVino, that's who. That delicious fried chicken skin we're not supposed to eat anymore dressed up with crema and pickled carrot. Divine. When I am having my inevitavle heart attack, I will remember that taco and be at peace with my decision. read more

In town for work and too many choices just on this block, but I don't regret my decision! I'd go back if I lived here... probably on a weekly basis to test out the whole menu. I chose 3 tacos ... Korean, curry, and duck. I loved them all but would say the Korean short rib was my favorite. The duck was sweet and delicious but maybe a tad over cooked. The curry was piled high and drool worthy. Such unique taco flavors and great combinations! I've been in a lot of taco shops and they usually aren't the friendliest of folks, but this was the exception. My server was all smiles with a helpful demeanor and positive attitude. The entire place had a super fun, welcoming vibe. read more

Absolutely fantastic. We ordered the jackfruit and tempeh tacos, chips and guac and a peach tea. Everything was so flavorful, fresh, and filling. Literally every crumb on the plate tasted amazing. The server was very friendly and helpful, the music was fun and the atmosphere was good too. We were so glad there were vegan options- and not just afterthoughts at that- the tempeh was perfectly spiced and crispy, the jackfruit was juicy, the tortillas were so fresh (they make them fresh everyday!!), the garnishes were seasoned and cut just right, the salsa was the best salsa i've ever had...i just can't say enough good things about this place!!! Will definitely order one of the delicious-sounding cocktails or a pitcher of homemade sangria next time! read more
