    The meat was ok, but I was shocked by how small the street tacos are. They are absolutely bite-sized, even for street taco standards. If you come here hungry, expect to spend a lot of money because the portions are very minimal, first and last time we come to this place, we should have know when we walked into an empty place. *the cashier who took our order was very nice and friendly

    Happened upon The Taco Spot driving around running errands. We weren't super hungry just wanted a lite meal. The place is small with friendly employees happy to answer any questions you might have. I got two tacos and my husband got nachos. The meats were flavorful making the tacos and nachos tasty. More items from the menu to try on our next visit.

    Tacos and birria ramen!

    Cute little taco spot in a strip mall in the Home Depot shopping center! We stopped in for dinner and got tacos and birria ramen, and we tried the hot Cheeto birria balls! The tacos were small, but mighty, packing a punch full of flavor - lots of meat inside! I love the texture of the hot Cheeto balls, a really nice crunch on the outside, and hot and spicy and meaty on the inside! Loved my birria ramen too, it was filling and full of meat! Very pricy though - 4 small tacos, 2 fountain drinks, 3 hot Cheeto balls, and a birria ramen was 60.00! It might better to come on 2.00 taco Tuesday! It was cute inside, and customer service was good!

    Loved the birria tacos from here. I did think the prices were a bit high but the food was delicious staff was friendly and the place was immaculate clean. Plenty of seating area inside and outside. If you're near the university try out the new place.

    3 birria tacos with consumé ($15)

    First time trying and I was sooo hungry. The cashier was friendly enough. It was pretty warm inside the restaurant. I know there are a lot of good reviews for this place but I found it to be just average. I think we make more flavorful birria at home. There was nothing off putting about my 3 birria tacos w/ consumé but they were just ok for $15. Not sure if I would go back.

    In the mood for a taco, I heard about the taco spot so I decided to come by today, ordered the queso birria taco, and my taco was lacking the queso, although the meat was flavorful and juicy, I was really looking forward to the cheesy taco, also had a Carne Asada taco which the meat didn't have too much flavor. It wasn't nasty, but it wasn't the best. I may return again to try something else, but that might be a while before I return. Looking into some other taco spots first.

    Chicken taco

    This was the worst food spot I've went too. I ordered birria nachos and they had the smallest amount of meat. Basically ate a few chips with meat and that was it. Still have a whole plate of chips. I also ordered my family food. The birria balls was all rice. Like 1 strip of birria . I wish I can take back my $7 tip. The birria tacos had little to no meat. And the chicken taco you can just look at it and be disgusted. My daughter did not touch it. Asked for a refund and was met with attitude and no help. The time i went in was from 5:40 - 6:15 p.m 4/12/2026. My order was 3 orders of quesabirra tacos. 1 birria nacho, 1 order of birria balls, 1 chicken taco. I spent $63 plus my seven dollar tip. Im really upset and would appreciate if someone reached out to me as soon as possible because when I asked for help and addressed the problems I was met with attitude and Basically ignored.

    Yelp is right again! Looked up best birria Tacos and this new spot.. the Taco spot came up! ha! Fast food looking but made to order fresh! Selling the BEST birria consumme dipping sauce I have ever had and generous size of it, perfect amount. My hubby had a Mexican Bowl and we had horchata, which was so tasty and perfect to wash down the 3 tacos. They also sell the Mexican Ramen (like you see in grocery stores if you like) Trendy place, Kind service and seriously delicious lunch!

    Taste good enough for street tacos but it weren't juicy enough from all meats.... Grill tasting was alright!! services we're good enough... since the foods were more dry even tasted ok... I've the classic coke glass bottle! The whole meal was fast enough but I will consider more different places for tacos shop if more choices available...

    3 birria tacos and consume
    Jenn B.

    Do not miss out on the chance for some of the best birria tacos you'll be lucky to have! The consume is delicate and flavorful, the tacos do not skimp on meat or cheese and nothing is overly greasy. When the girl behind the counter asks if you want salsa, please say yes. Also, please be aware that the red salcita is spicy! I'm going to be going back soon for the ramen & birria.

    This is a pretty aesthetically pleasing place, from the pictures online, to inside decor, and the visually appealing menu. I struggled to decide what to order because it allllll looked so good. I ended up ordering 2 street tacos and the taco/fry combo that came with 2 tacos and a side of fries for $11.29. They have 5 options in meat and I chose the birria based on their picture on Yelp that looked delicious.. looking further at that picture while waiting for my food, I'm not sure it's their picture, which I felt was misleading. But I'm hoping I'm wrong and it is theirs. Anyway i ordered my food to go but ate a bit before I left. It came with a red and green salsa, both of which were okay. My street tacos fine, no complaint, but no praise either. The birria were pretty yummy and cheesy. I was expecting to be able to dip them but maybe I dont really understand what birria is lol? Anyway all in all the experience was good and staff was friendly, HOWEVER I'm not sure it's the best value...I didn't not feel that those 2 tacos and fries were worth $12.. it was more fries than anything and the tacos of course were pretty small.

    Good birria! But I was surprised to get a quesadilla instead of an actual pizza with birria on it.

This food was not good. The chicken is fried but tastes like fish.we tried the desert ramen and it was so spicy you couldn't taste anything, and that is coming from people who love spice. The noodles were cooked well but getting the lid off the ramen was obnoxiously harder than it needed to be. Couldn't get over the fishy taste of everything, including the wings and fries.

I got the spicy red miso, small chicken garlic parm, and my husband got the vegan ramen. All were extremely flavorful and fresh tasting and came out quickly. They have a good selection of pre bottled drinks as well to complement the dishes. The red miso definitely satisfied my spicy tastes if you are the type of person who can eat a bag of hot Cheetos without blinking you'll be fine but if you're sensitive to spice you might want to skip that option. On the menu they do have chili peppers next to the items to indicate the spice level. The portions are BIG and definitely worth it. They come in the cutest bowels and have an excellent packing system of the broth is separate from the noodles and other items if you're getting it to go. The actual restaurant is quirky for sure with Easter eggs hidden and anime and Pokémon around the restaurant. This is DEFINITELY better than Obon and Raijen hands down. This is my new favorite ramen spot!

You order at the register and can choose to sit anywhere. Our food came out quickly. We ordered the Guilin dried style and the other bowl with broth. The noodle bowl includes rice noodles. meat-based spiced sauce, spicy pickled greens & bamboo, pickled long beans, roasted peanuts, and you can choose between 2 proteins. For my two proteins, I chose crispy pork belly and pork intestine. I wish they gave a little more because it was so good. I personally loved the dry one because the noodles soaked well with the sauce. The sauce was sooo gooodddd. The noodles were perfectly cooked - had a good soft bounce to it. The guilin with broth was also so good. The broth was perfectly cooked chicken broth. The pickled greens were a nice touch to balance the flavors. I wish this place was closer to me because I literally would go every week. This is one of the best noodle bowls I had in such a long time. Next time when I am in Tucson, I am going to try their other menu items because everything looked so good. Very reasonable price and great portions. There were lots of tables inside. Restaurant was clean. Parking was spacious. You have to try this!!

And as the form shows, they are not nickle and dining you. Most sections allow you to add as much as want, and there is an insane amount to choice from. Plus, you can be super healthy. I got a salad bowl, no rice, spicy tuna and crab, with edamame, pickled radish (highly recommend), red onion and more items that I can't remember. Finished it off with fried garlic for a fun crisp that was nice change of texture. Everything tasted really fresh. The daughter got a sushi burrito, filled with crab, avocado, cream cheese and again, other items I can't remember. Everything nicely distributed. Both were huge, giving us dinner and lunch tomorrow. And such a good price! Mine was $17 because two proteins and hers was $15. It is counter service, get your own water, but they brought the food to us and there are signs saying to leave trays on table, so not total self service. The cashier was very helpful, and gave a great description of the drink the daughter asked about. Thr daughter has a goal of working way through drink menu so we will be back.
