The people at Taco Joint were really nice. We hoped for a nice experience but it was not to be. To begin with we placed our orders at the counter ( it is a taco joint) and used a coupon to get a free Dr. J's chips and queso. (Reg $6.19). We ordered the Spicy grilled shrimp taco, and the Grilled fish taco each. We asked that he replace the flour tortillas with corn. Now maybe this was our mistake- but seriously???!!! First the tortillas were served with corn tortillas that were not cooked at all. Not warmed, grilled,heated in in way whatsoever, albeit they did put two on each taco. I suppose to hold together better. You would think they could have easily been thrown on the grill with shrimp or fish - which brings up another problem. Neither the shrimp or the fish appeared or tasted grilled at all. No marks, not browned, blackened, stripes, or anything to suggest they had ever touched any sort or grill. Much less taste like it. They appeared and tasted as if they might be sautéed or boiled. The fish. No marks or sauce. Topped with salad mix - is just that - chunks of salad mix. We did not like or eat either taco. We ate little bits and pieces wit a fork- the tortillas were inedible. The fillings just gross when added to it. Now to the chips and queso. It is the only thing we ate some of. We left hungry. The chips seemed straight out of a bag. Not a good brand at that. The queso was good. We did like the queso. I might have loved it if everything else wasn't so bad The atmosphere well cafeteria style seating. Light and bright with lots of windows. The music was a little loud for my taste but not too bad. My husband and I had tried their breakfast a few months back. I wasn't impressed but neglected to write a review. It was just a taco joint I would have given 3 stars then. Now, I won't be back. Lesson learned. Yuck read more

We were hungering for brisket breakfast tocos and queso and you delivered! And the churros were warm and delightful! Thanks, every thing was so good! read more

Saturday we ordered for pickup 2 TACO COMBO, THE "BIG B", and a VEGGIE BURRO. The food was ready upon arrival. Customer service was good. All food items tasted bland. We discovered a human hair lodged in the middle of "THE "BIG B" burrito. We definitely have had much better quality of Tex Mex food at other local establishments. read more

Our dentist is right next door to this store, we watched this store go in. Today, we picked up breakfast sausage taco's and Churro's and, it was DELICIOUS~! Lulu was the manager on duty, and, he entire staff is to be given 2 thumbs up. We will be going back. *The parking lot was full~! Welcome to Plano~! Cathy and Larry Allen-Plano, Texas read more

Pretty average food but a very clean restaurant and friendly staff help secure three stars. We started with chips and queso - it tasted like my mom's recipe she picked up in the 1970's (this isn't a compliment). It was watery and tasted like a block of microwave melted Velveeta mixed with a can of Rotel. Don't get me wrong - it was an oddly comforting reminder of childhood but I don't want to spend money on watery Velveeta at a restaurant. The crispy tacos were next and a complete mess. The taco shells appear to be homemade but by the looks of their shape, a class of distracted kindergartners made them. The shells were not standard in shape, challenging to eat, and shattered immediately after one bite. It would have been easier to break the shells apart and eat the taco components with a spoon and fork. To top it off, the beef was bland - really bland. I don't think they used any type of seasoning. After experiencing their Velveeta cheese dip I expected at least some store bought taco seasoning. Alas - nothing but just flavorless, unseasoned ground beef. Overall, in a town of endless taco joints and Tex-Mex icons I would not place the Taco Joint high on any list. This type of menu may work well in parts of the world without TexMex but falls completely short of DFW minimum standards. read more

Great new taco place. The brisket tacos is excellent!! Chips, Guacamole, and Queso very good.. Jim Murphy Tx.. read more

Was waiting for the Plano Pkwy location to finally open and we went today for lunch. Has an order at the counter vibe kind of like Torchy's Taco's.... I actually wish it was a Torchy's. The food was ok... call it a notch or two over Taco Cabana or Taco Bueno, about the same as Fuzzy's. The queso was ok, not as good as Torchy's. Wifey got a gigantic breakfast burrito (ten bucks!) I got brisket tacos. Everything was fine... but not exceptional. $30+ for fast food taco lunch was a little shocking though. The inside layout is a train wreck. Tables right in the main area by the counter where you stand in line to order... so you're standing in line next to people eating. Same with the drink / salsa station, right next to tables. They need to work on the flow a little bit, maybe move some of the tables away from these areas. I can only imagine the chaos when they are full tilt busy like lunch or dinner. Fuzzy's and Torchy's (at least the ones near us) don't have this problem, as the line to the order counter is separated from the eating area. Hopefully when it gets cooler they can put more seating outside, there is a huge patio area but only a couple benches. Staff was nice and polite. I will go back and give it another shot, but I'll probably get it to go. read more

Plano just added to the foodie fam. I finally got a chance to try the taco joint on Plano parkway I expect the Orangetheory next door to start suing because there will be an absolute zero gain once you leave fitness to go fill back up on tacos these guys just do good tacos I started off with crispy sirloin pack and for me they're pretty good rival to Taco casa which are my favorite crispy tacos also they're fajita tacos are also really. They have a basic salsa bar with green and red which is really all you need but stay for the jalapeno ranch it rivals Chuy's. When I go next I'm going to try the fish tacos and the nachos I don't even like nachos but they look so good get in on the ground floor this is when you definitely don't want to miss read more

Can they package their togo food any worse? Unbelievable that the bottom of the paper bag busted open and there was grease everywhere. It made a mess and the amount of grease will deter me from eating there again. read more

i love this place, it is tasty and the service is friendly and quick. The Taco Joint beats all the other chains in the area. The food is fresh!!!! read more

Wanted to eat there but they won't sell you enchiladas without it coming with a drink. I wanted to order a margarita, didn't need another drink. "Nope, enchiladas only come with a drink." Went to Rodeo Goat next door and got a margarita with my burger. Silly rules. read more

The service and food portions were terrible. The spicy fried chicken was mostly lettuce. There was barely a sliver of chicken in it. It was so small, it wasn't long enough to stretch across half the tortilla. The lady behind the counter calling names can't pronounce names clearly. She called for Marcel, not Matthew. When she figured out it was me, the food was cold. Three hours later, I was having severe intestinal distress from the food. I will never eat here again. read more

Lemme start by saying that I happen to like The Taco Joint....well, that is to say I like the Taco Joint downtown Dallas. I started going there the week they opened years ago. Always good. Then I discovered that they opened the Plano location and I thought "cool"! Closer to home without all the morning crowds...so went to Plano location a month or so ago and was disappointed. Not by taste but by the build of the taco. If you sell a +$3 breakfast taco it has better not look like a sad flat quesadilla. But whatever, I took my sad little 5 tacos and chalked it up to a bad day cause everybody has them right? Fast forward to today, I decide to pass up my sure thing downtown Dallas location and give Plano another try. I walk in and see tables covered in boxes for large corporate orders and think great! Business is booming for them! I put in my 5 taco order and I have to tell you..sigh...what's going on with this place? $3 for bean and cheese but whatever I like them that's my thing. But my gosh! No lie maybe a tablespoon and a half of beans on these anorexic tacos( and that's me being generous) . There was so much vacant tortilla space on these things I had to look in the bag and see if maybe I had inadvertently squashed it all out, but nope. So, I hope corporate orders keep up because it's a hard pass for me on this location where quality control seems to be on permanent vacation. read more

Very, very good! I had the Monday Special, Shrimp Quesadilla. They brought the HEAT with perfectly cooked and clean shrimp, sauteed with tiny chopped onion and spices, so delicious! Served with guac and sour cream, and a drink. Cool atmosphere and fun music, and the friendliest staff. Three kinds of salsa. Definitely going back! read more

Definitely a regular here. Love the tacos and all the specials. Price is great. Their queso is the best around and this location far exceeds the Lakewood location. Its cleaner, more efficient, and much better food. Manager Scott makes everyone feel welcome. I would recommend it to anyone. read more

Fun friendly environment and food was. Extra spicy salsa available when you special request it.

Tried the chicken fajita taco and The Evan (vegetarian) taco - both were kinda average

Hands down the best chips!!! Light, crispy and perfect texture! The creamy jalapeño salsa with chips is a meal!!! The service was quick, restaurant was clean and cool!!! It's been too hot to eat outside or inside. I had talk frozen margarita that could have used a little more tequila but with frozen drinks it's a toss up... I ordered the The Hangover it was more than I could eat in one sitting. I should've have asked for corn tortillas... its served with flour tortillas. I'll be back!!! read more

I got a brisket taco combo with chips and salsa. Positives: The rice and beans were really good, they tasted fresh and well seasoned. The red salsa itself was very good as well. The inside of the restaurant was clean and the servers were polite. Negatives: It's insultingly obvious new chips are mixed with the old chips. Some chips were so stale they were chewy. The brisket tacos were mediocre. Their corn tortillas weren't softened at all and tasted old like they came straight off a grocery store shelf. They also had a powdery texture and fell apart as I ate it. Pretty dreadful. The brisket was dry, yet watery and *too* evenly colored to be fresh. It seemed like it was frozen and boiled in a bag. For about $16 dollars, I feel like I got scammed into buying high school cafeteria food. read more

First time ordering from them. Ordered soft flour fajita tacos to go. The tortillas were still chilled from being in the refrigerator. Don't know why they would not have heated them before making the tacos. The meat was tasteless, and one of the chicken tacos had a large hunk of gristle, which took up about half the meat. I would not eat their food again. The only good thing was that the new Plano location is close to where I live. read more

If you are in the mood for yummy tacos, great customer service and fun atmosphere Taco Joint is your place. We are offices close to this location and we always get their breakfast tacos for our team meetings! There are rarely any leftovers because they are so yummy! We get the potato, chorizo, brisket and bacon! Their sauces are yummy as well as the chips and queso. The employees are so sweet too! I went in one of their first days being open and the staff was still adjusting but I was so well taken care of despite that! 1000/10 recommend!! read more

Not even a mediocre taco shop. Food was honestly terrible fish taco was unedable and the brisket taco was just that, dry brisket on a corn tortilla and that was it. read more

I love this place! The food is very good. It's simple, not too expensive and I find myself going there more and more. Rosa's and Torchy's are good simple easy places for tacos as well, but this place is beating them at their own game. They're better tacos than Rosa's and cheaper than Torchy's. The Lester is great, the Spicy Fried Chicken is too, and the breakfast tacos are really good. read more

Great food. Great tacos. This is our go to for morning breakfast tacos. Bacon egg and potato is our go to!

Good food, love the patio, and all the employees had smiles and good customer service.

The brisket tacos are delicious! Moist, flavorful, lots of meat. Delightful! The chips and queso are another must have- just the right consistency and spice level. read more

The BEST breakfast tacos hands down, and their jalapeño ranch can't be beat. The staff is always friendly and food always fresh. This is our go-to taco shop. read more

I have eaten at the Taco Joint 3 times in the past few weeks and have yet to be disappointed. The food is great. The 5 Alarm burrito and the Hangover Plate were not only delicious and well seasoned, but spicy as well. Tad and Matt always have a smile and make all who enter feel immediately welcomed. Will definitely be recommending The Taco Joint to all of my coworkers. read more

Love the Sirloin Tacos and the Manager Tad. Cool to meet and chill with him!Beef Street Taco too!

This is one of my favorite Mexican places in the Dallas area! I love to eat here when I visit. The queso is one of my all time favorites. My go to dish is the State Fair, it's the only thing I order lol! And so worth it! read more

We were so happy when they opened your location. Great breakfast tacos and jalapeño ranch

Went here today and everything was very good. Tacos were great, guacamole was excellent, and my wife really liked her flautas. I used to go to the store down at 75 and Beltline for lunch and was unhappy when it closed. This one is closer to home and (I think) even better than the old store. Staff was great (very personable), and service was excellent. We'll be back! read more

Literally the best tacos in town! Quality is consistent and service is friendly. My collage daughter insist eating there multiple times every time she is home. read more

I ordered Cheese enchiladas with chili con carne at this Plano location. I received Cheese enchiladas with queso. Come on Taco joint. A new location needs to be spot on when building a customer base. Paying attention to detail and delivering what the customer paid for is crucial in this market. A pure service failure. Were the enchiladas good - NO. read more

Excellent food and great customer service. Ask for Josh he will take care of you and knows how to treat customers right. We will be back often. read more

My son took me to taco joint last evening. So disappointment would not go back! I had a fish taco at velvet taco and was delicious. This fish taco had big pieces of cod, a teaspoon of lettuce and that was it! No one welcome us and no one said thanks for coming. They need to really improve. read more
