This place is a part of a franchise that started as a popular food truck in southern Florida. When a location came to Concord, NC. I was there. I ordered the popular Birria Grill Cheese Sandwich. It was good but the birria steak was too salty for me. Also be warned you have to eat the sandwich when you get because it gets soggy quick. The fries were too salty for me also but the Tomato soup that came with was the best part of the meal. It was creamy and delicious. The aesthetics of the restaurant was super cute the Day of the Dead murals are a nice touch with the black background. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Next time I am trying the chicken or the shrimp burrito. read more

Ambiance is dark, crowded and loud. The black lights are a choice. Front of house service is good, the servers are friendly and helpful. But Unfortunately all of my food came out cold. I sent the street corn back to get a fresh one and it was the same, if not colder. My bang-bang shrimp tacos were cold as well, but at that point I just gave up. For $33 (tipped $5) I think they could absolutely provide better food, it's a shame. Overall this was such a disappointing experience. I was excited to try this place and honestly left so frustrated. Save your time and money and go to Bartaco. read more

Ugh! The food looks so good but it's so mid. There's barely any flavor. The birria ramen had bo flavor and it was watery. The Mexican corn was awful. The hot Cheeto dip was bland. And the chamoy gummies were served with no chamoy or tajin when I asked they said oh we ran out. I returned those that's the whole point. Other than that the service was good and the only reason I give it 3 stars. read more

The restaurant feel is very cool! There isn't a ton of seating, but we didn't have an issue. I like to do self check out, but as my first time, it was a little difficult. Gary was there at the door to greet us and help us out a bit, so it ended up ok. Actually, the staff all were very friendly and helpful We stated with the guac and chips which was very good. We tried the bang bang shrimp taco, the mahi mahi taco, the southwest chicken taco and the birria grilled cheese. Buyer beware, the tacos are very greasy. The shrimp and chicken we got were really good; the mahi mahi was a little too fishy for my taste. The meat on the grilled cheese was so good, but I think it too was pretty greasy. We got our 3-year old a bean taco, and she did alright with it. They have chicken fingers but that is all for a "kids menu." All in all I want to go back and try the ramen! Especially because the beef on the grilled cheese was sooooo yummy! read more

Food is the best! I come here almost every day. My favorite taco is the Caribbean Carney this place has the best customer service and I hope you guys try it too read more

Very disappointed. This is not authentic Mexican food despite what's advertised. Everything was bland and overly Americanized. Would not recommend if you're looking for real Mexican flavors. If you want some good flavor check this place out "Antojitos Mexicanos Victoria" 5025 N Tryon St read more

I do not recommend the birria pizza. It was soggy and greasy. It had about a pound of cheese, 3x more than a normal pizza has, which was overwhelming and gross. The dine-in has no AC and is hot. Long wait and self ordering service. read more

Food was amazing drove 45 mins to eat here totally worth the hype !!! The food was fresh hot and season. read more

Super cute inside! Food was fast and fresh. Loved the chicken nachos. And their hot sauces were fire! read more

Absolute waste...food is pricey and service is crap!! They took 40mins to prepare simple items like nachos and talking rudely vn asked abt delay!! Definitely not worth the time n $$ read more

It's amazing to me how restaurants with average food and poor customer service think they will survive in today's competitive market. Especially when there is a Mexican joint on every corner in America now-a-days. My first and last visit was marred by poor customer service. Part of their moto is "less talkin'" and they certainly lived up to this. I was barely acknowledged as a customer. The food was ok, but not worth the price. Consume for the birria tacos was cold and chips with the burrito were cold AND stale. $2.50 for a bottled water? Do yourselves a favor. Go to the locally owned, Latino operated Mexican restaurant. I"m sure the food will be much better and they will most definitely treat you like they want you to not only stay,but come back again. read more

This food& service are amazing and Ambiance and Music is a whole vibe You have to try the Churros and Freshly Made Drinks!!! read more

Cold food, slow service. Staff was nice but had to replace our food after long waits 3 times

Whoever thought of this place deserves a gold medal! Listen the variety of choices are amazing! This food is so savory !!! Yes get the plantains!! read more

I'm not gonna lie, this was too goooddd! I had the Birria taki tacos & the cup of street corn. It was sooooo good! & I love street corn so I'm picky about it. It's good here , the only thing I don't like is how much parsley and garnish is on top. Excessive amount but overall? The food is bomb read more

Food: I got the three taco combo with special request no raw onions. All three were covered in raw onions. Two of the tacos were good, nothing special, but one of them had a white sauce on it that I did not like, and I threw it in the trash. Service: there really is no service. One of the girls who work there was talking very loudly about how the other girl's phone "sucked". You walk in and as other reviews have stated, it's very confusing how to make an order but they have iPads for you to order at. I figured it out but no one really checked on me and it was uncomfortable with the staff members talking loudly amongst themselves. The owner should send a few secret shoppers in and I think you will quickly see that you need to adjust your service standards read more

Ya'll, we were amazed at the flavors of these fantastic bites! So worth it. We went at night. Mad props to the painter of the HUGE glowing wall murals. Food, art, & music made for wonderful vibes. We will be back! read more

The place is cute inside and I like the concept, but the food is a complete miss. I love birria tacos so was excited to try theirs. They were bland and soggy. I also ordered queso, which consisted of a thick, yellow cheese that was lukewarm with very little flavor and did not come with chips. I assume things like salsa and queso would come with chops automatically because how else do people eat them? So once I figured this out I had to place another order for chips. The chips were cold and tasted stale. The temperature of every food item I ordered was lukewarm to cold. The only thing that tasted good was the drink. Blue strawberry lemonade was delicious. I spent $40 and had a completely lackluster meal. Another thing to note is that you order at a kiosk, which is not a bad concept, except that they only have 2 so there is a long wait as people go through and decide on their food, etc. I would recommend adding 2-3 more for better efficiency. One of the worst Mexican or Tex-Mex places I have tried. This will be my first and only visit. read more

Delicious food! Outstanding service by the entire staff with Tatiana going above and beyond to provide an amazing experience for me!The decor is so classic but still trendy. I enjoyed the Caribbean crane taco, although I should've asked for my beef medium well. I also had the southwest chicken taco. Both tacos were outside of my usual preference for ingredients. I'm glad I went with those choices, because the pairings were actually perfect. The highlight is the Birria pizza tho. I recommend eating it folded sideways so you get all the cheese and juice together. I drove 2hrs for it and it didn't disappoint! read more

The food was so fresh, hot and tastes amazing. We placed our order and got it very quick. Servers and all employees are very friendly. Cool atmosphere that we will definitely be talking about and coming back to. We are so fast that I didn't get a chance to get pictures, maybe next time lol. read more

This food was so good. I do food review locally and I must say the service was top tier! The atmosphere was amazing very chill. I will be back ! The best item is the stack wrap and I add the street corn for more kick yes lord . Definitely my new spot on cheat days ! read more

I wish I could give it zero stars. I really wanted to try the birria here. Apparently (I think, bcus no one shared instructions or thought to speak and welcome customer) you are suppose to take your order @ a kiosk. There was a lady and her daughter at one kiosk for over 30 mins.... why didn't I use another kiosk?? Because they only had 2 and one wasn't turned on/working. Finally after 30 mins of NO ONE TALKING TO US AT ALL... NO ORDER BEING PLACED, WE LEFT. read more

Very dirty. Went to go sit down and found an inside-out used sanitary glove that must have come from someone working there. Dining Floor and kitchen area were filthy. We canceled our order and left. read more

Would do a 1.5 star if I could. Was so pumped for this place to open and what a disappointment. Had my usual birria tacos and carne asada tacos. Couldn't even finish - dry with not enough cheese and no flavor at all read more

Stay away! Automatic 20% grat. Added to every meal. Used to pay their employees. Shady practices. Firing of employees for standing up for themselves(respectfully)via text message. Most employees don't realize they're getting paid min. Wage till their 1st check appears. Food is ok at best if you feel like waiting an hour and part of your $$ going towards paying their employees. read more

This place was so nasty , it took so long for our food to come out. The customer service was unprofessiona. I don't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Was psyched to finally try this eatery. Don't mind the kiosk because that seems to be the direction of where things are headed. Went to the E Sunrise Blvd location in Fort Lauderdale. Found out that this Talkin' Tacos don't serve any fountain soda whatsoever in their locations. When I asked for a diet beverage option, was told I could get water. A real turn off...what kind of eatery doesn't have a diet beverage.? Food was ok, but for the money, a disappointment. A queso, and two orders of carne asada tacos....$52. Was so disappointed because there is a new location opening up less than two miles from my house...but I won't be visiting after this experience. They should have left Tiajana Flats there. read more

The food was not that good. Everything came out cold unfortunately, the street corn was extremely cold. My fish taco was cold. The birria taco had absolutely no taste to it. I was the only person in there so was unsure why it didn't come out fresh. I won't be coming back read more

mel was super helpful -- great customer service and even better food recommendations! 10/10

Went here for lunch with no expectations and the first thing I noticed was a kiosk to place my order. I was greeted and was shown how to navigate through it, which was simple enough. The decor was is typical for a chain restaurant and it was nicely done. I ordered birria ramen but for the price, quantity, and flavor, it was a bit of a disappointment. They need to adjust the price for the amount of food & the taste they offer. Stick to locally owned restaurants if you're looking for an authentic meal at a better price read more

customer service was amazing! the birria tacos were amazing! I will definitely recommend these tacos! read more

Ordering system was chaotic and annoying. The menu isn't posted anywhere on the wall, so the only way to browse the menu is by navigating one of their two kiosks while everyone stares at the back of your head. Every chair and table in the place was sticky. Not just normal restaurant sticky... we walked all over the place until we found enough lightly-sticky chairs to seat our party. One order was completely forgotten about and took so long to come that everyone else had eaten most of their meal. When they delivered the food, only a lucky few received silverware. The food was okay, but there are better, cleaner, less annoying options within a five minute drive of this place. We won't be going back. read more

I had no issues ordering but it took eight times longer to get my food than expected. When you place your order you get a text that says x number of orders ahead ... approximate wait time is x" my wait time was 8 minutes. I've been standing waiting for my to go order for 40 now and the people in the kitchen are playing around with each other grabbing each others feet/shoes not washing hands before handling food. Someone came in ordered just now and got their food before we did. Will not be coming back. read more

Great food & wonderful service will be back! The beef birria was amazing! It was super tender and juicy and the consume that it came with was flavorful as well. read more

I have ordered food from here a few times over the last two months and i ordered the shrimp tacos each time. The first two times were via delivery. I kept trying it because I wanted to give it a chance. First time the shrimp and toppings were great, but the tortillas were hard (I attributed this to the long delivery time). I also ordered guacamole (which there were no chips for) and rice and beans. All were good. Second time they were so much better and it was great. The third time was a pick up order, shrimp tacos had little to no bang bang sauce which was disappointing. My boyfriend's chicken bowl he really enjoyed. I ordered take out myself for pick up and everything seemed fine. I found out while in there they are under new management in the last week and the issues I had previously made sense. What is confusing to me is my first pick up order I used the talkin tacos app, the second I did at the kiosk and found out the store uses a different app. It's confusing that there are two apps that use two separate rewards programs. I'll definitely be trying again the food has been great when everything is there, and I think they deserve another chance with new management coming in. read more

solid street food, good service from staff. great atmosphere with decent music as well. overall, a great spot for food and worth the price.
