    Tacos and street corn nachos
    Boris M.

    Best place for tacos, you'll never door dash Taco Bell again. After the Winter Classic my son door dashed Talkin' Tacos. After the game ran out of food we were all hungry and happy to see a bag at the front door, what we opened up was so well made, so delicious that I made a lunch stop over there today. We had some shredded beef tacos and street corn nachos. I can't recommend this place enough. A few locations in Fort Lauderdale/Pines area. High quality product right here. Quick friendly service.

    The Talkin' Tacos is known for their heavy fluorescently colored Day of the Dead skull theme throughout. This was post lunch time so it was empty, but thats what I like. The manager gave me a quick tour of the taco menu and chose the Carne Asada for $5.00. The street taco was small (well it's a street taco) well seasoned and two lime wedges that I lightly squeezed onto the beef and onions. Took a light grip of the taco and sadly the shell fell apart in my big paws. So, instead of an enjoyable moment with my pygmy sized meal, I was forced to quickly shove the taco into my mouth in an attempt to save some of the shell's delicate structure. Scooped up the fallen beef with my hand from the bowl trying not to waste a morsel. Aside from the failed composition of the corn tortilla shell, there was a shockingly insane burst of flavor with every bite. The manager (in training) provided me a $10.00 gift card to apply toward an online order, which was a powerful marketing tool. The gender assigned bathroom was clean with a modern deep sink and dark gray tile. Bronze colored skulls lined the wallpaper continuing that Day of the Dead theme which was an excellent touch of detail. The staff cleanliness form on the back of the bathroom door exemplifies a sense of pride by management. Even with the tortilla disaster, which has happened at a few other taco hot spots, but not an excuse, this taco joint has top notch customer service with flavor packed beef tacos. Easily a strong 4.6 star rating and will return.

    Chicken taco covered in oil / grease

    I really wanted this to be a 5 star review. But honestly, I was really disappointed. The service wasn't bad but it just felt like there was no effort to take care of the customer. The chips, salsa, and guacamole was delicious and tasted super fresh. But the tacos....were COVERED in oil. They were extremely greasy and each corn tortilla was soaked in it. I had to ask for plain corn tortillas since both my dish and my friends had so much oil dripping from each tacos. When I asked for them, there was just no effort or haste from the individuals working there to make things right. As an avid taco-lover, I found that I was really disappointed in this place.

    First time here! I decided to try them out for lunch so I picked up the Birria Ramen with a side of Street Corn in a Cup. Inside seems a bit dark. The walls are literally painted black and they have black lighting. Even the floor and tables are black. I am assuming this has a different effect when it is night time. I on the other hand wouldn't eat here. Upon walk in, I was greeted. I didn't see any menus around so the cashier told me to order at the kiosk and I could see the whole menu on there. I don't really have anything negative to say. The food was an instant hit of flavor in your mouth. They gave me a lot of ramen. I could not finish it so I saved the rest for later. As well as the street corn. Overall, not bad.

    Birria Tacos and Horchata
    Nicole T.

    Decided to come in here before work. Have visited other locations. Everything was amazing. The horchata was 10/10!!! I almost drank the whole thing in one go. For food I ordered the birria tacos. They were very flavorful but for me I would've liked more cheese in it. Didn't really get much at all. But besides that very delicious!

    The decor is dark but very nice. We were immediately greeted by the staff. You have to order and pay for your food at the kiosk. I ordered the shrimp Barrito with Fried fish. The burrito was very large and tasty. I also ordered the bowl of Mexican corn. This was my very first time trying Mexican Street Corn, and I loved it.

    Talkin Tacos consistently provides wonderful service and delicious food. The neon skulls are (somehow) inviting and within their many menu options, you're bound to find a favorite dish. Mine happens to be the steak quesadilla, but on this particular day I got three tacos: 2 shrimp tacos and 1 fish taco. The tacos are always PACKED and the ingredients always taste fresh. Plus, you can wash all this great food down with one of their tasty lemonades. Overall, Talkin Tacos does the talk just as well as it walks the walk.

    I had the vegan tacos made with mushroom. It was a bunch of salt. The corn shell was soft. So it was mush on a soft shell. The guacamole tastes like it came from a can. It left much to be desired. The people were very nice and the restaurant was clean. The best part of the food experience was the freshly made chips.

    Mahi Mahi Burrito
    Louis R.

    My sons ate here recently and recommended we go together. Honestly, I was surprised that this may have been the best mahi burrito I've ever had. It came out warm and just as I ordered it. The ordering was super easy through a standalone electronic ordering machine which allowed a personalized order--as I didn't want the mayo or pico de gallo. You enter a name and number and a nice attendant brought it out when it was ready. It was ready quick and the attendant was very friendly and brought out a takeaway container too when requested. The seating was comfortable and there was nice background music too. If I'm in the area, I'll definitely be back.

    Yummmmmmm! Took a Uber to the suburbs to enjoy wonderful avocado dip and birra tacos. Fresher than fresh. Rolled up to a large parking lot share with other businesses. . Found ourselves a kiosk placed our order and paid. Food came out hot fresh. This place does not have a bar. So we did not say long. Loved the decoration and atmosphere.

    Decided to visit Talkin Tacos for Taco Tuesday. This place was formerly another taco/mexican place with a similar format. Upon arriving I was greeted by the staff, which were extremely helpful and nice. The two ladies working the floor are doing an amazing job. The restaurant has a cool/dark vibe. Some people might find a bit too dark but I didn't mind. I actually had to use the camera flash for my pictures. I felt the place was actually cool and pretty clean, including the bathroom. I ordered my food using the kiosk station, which is very nice because you get to see photos of how each dish looks like. I ordered their taco tuesday special, which was 2 tacos of choice, another second dish of choise and a drink. I choose the birria tacos (Corn Tortilla, Chihuahua Cheese, Beef Birria, Onions and Cilantro, served with consome). I thought it was very flavorful but on the small side. Would order again. Also ordered the birria burrito, (Flour Tortilla, Mexican Rice, Refried Beans, Chihuahua Cheese, Lettuce, Pico de Gallo, Takis, Avocado Salsa, and Sour Cream. (Served with Chips). This one was pretty decent size but less flavorful. For the size of it, there should have been more of the meat and the other ingredients and less rice. Wouldnt order again. To drink I chose the passion fruit drink, which I found out later it was a bottle of jarrito. This was a huge meal which could be shared by two people. I only ate half and to the rest to go. I'd come back again to try some of their other dishes.

    So expensive, poor quality, bland churros. Only thing that was good was the street corn. Tijuana flats was so much better!

There was a large party that seemed to cause major delays, and we ended up waiting about an hour for our food. Thankfully, the drinks were strong, so we had a great time catching up while we waited. We started with the guacamole, which was incredibly fresh and addictive. I ordered the Fresh Herbs Swai, and although they were out of the coconut rice, the dish was still flavorful and delicious. We also tried the Cuban 4 Leches cake and flan, and both were pretty good. Despite the long wait, this remains one of my favorite low-key spots. The food never disappoints, and I plan to return whenever I'm in the area.

    We came here after the World Cup final match expecting to have a nice dinner. The first couple of…read moredishes, including the nachos, were actually pretty good. Everything changed when our fajitas arrived. We ordered the Mixed Fajitas with beef steak, shrimp, and chicken. After we'd been eating for a while, my husband suddenly said the steak smelled and tasted spoiled. I realized I had noticed an odd smell when I ate a piece earlier, but I thought maybe it was just me. Then one of our friends said she thought it tasted bad too and had actually spit it out into a napkin. We immediately called the server over. He took the entire cast-iron fajita skillet back to the kitchen and said he would check with the chef. After a long wait, he came back and told us that both the chef and the prep cook insisted there was nothing wrong with the steak because it had been cut just yesterday. They claimed the "smell" was coming from the sauce. We asked them to bring us the sauce separately. We all tasted it, and the sauce had absolutely no bad smell at all. It clearly wasn't the source of the problem. Even then, they refused to acknowledge that anything was wrong with the steak, but they could remake the meat if we want. We then asked to speak with the manager. A young manager came over, we asked if any of them has tasted the beef steak left in the fajitas skillet, she said she believed us tasted and smelled it but she simply repeated the same explanation. She said they were a family-owned business that cared deeply about their reputation, so the meat had to be fresh. Her solution remained unchanged, she can bring us a remake of the meat. By that point, we had already finished most of the meal. What good would another plate do? We weren't asking for more food--we wanted them to acknowledge the issue and handle it appropriately. The ending was honestly unbelievable. They took just $6 off the entire bill, saying they had removed the cost of the steak from the fajitas. I've never experienced a resolution like that at any restaurant. The only conclusion I can come to is that this is a tourist area in Fort Lauderdale. They saw that we were visitors, figured we'd be leaving town soon, and simply didn't care about making things right because we'd probably never be back anyway. I haven't left reviews at Yelp for many years, but I'd like to share this experience. Hopefully it helps others decide whether they want to take the risk of dining here.

We sat outside and watched people jogging up the A1A and frolicking on the beach. It's a good spot to people watch. Once we were seated, we were instructed on where the food was located, and our drink orders were taken. The worst part: There are NO scrambled eggs in a heated pan to serve yourself. That leaves you with no choice but to wait in the egg line where the chef makes your eggs for you. Boooo! What if I just wanted plain ole eggs? Or, I don't feel like waiting 30 minutes in a line to have an omelet made? It's brunch, but it really serves more of a lunch menu. It is a Mexican restaurant, so that's what you'll find. There's a make-your-own taco bar, ceviche, chips & guac, etc. But I'm a breakfast person. The waffle strips tasted store-bought (and came with syrup in a little jam container), and the mac & cheese was an afterthought. Again, probably Kraft. Luckily, once you drink enough mimosas, nothing else matters. So yeah, that's where the DJ saves the day. They also had endless margaritas, but them joints tasted TART. Those little cheesecake squares were pretty good. Otherwise, I don't think I'd come back for this brunch.

It's so good I've already gone two weeks in a row and I'm pretty sure it's about to become a regular thing for me. One of my favorite parts about this place is that the owners are actually the chefs in the kitchen, preparing all of the dishes themselves. They're incredibly friendly and even come out to chat with guests, which makes the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. The barbacoa tacos are hands down my favorite. The meat is unbelievably tender literally falling apart and so juicy and flavorful. I also tried the campechano tacos (a mix of chorizo and steak) and they were sooo good. Perfectly seasoned and packed with flavor. And let's talk about their chipotle salsa... I'm obsessed. I was putting it on everything on the table. It has the perfect smoky kick and just elevates every bite. The guac and chips were good, though they didn't quite stand out compared to how incredible the tacos were. But honestly, those tacos alone are reason enough to keep coming back. Safe to say I've found my new Taco Tuesday spot . Can't wait for my next visit!
