For what it is, it's good. Fast Mexican with a cute vibe. Ordering service was kind of slow, but the food came out fast. Would definitely get the bowl again!

Visited midweek for lunch and was thrilled to see so many other locals supporting our neighborhood taco joint! This was the second time I had eaten here and was still just as impressed as last time. Love the tacos with pineapple and the birria tacos. Burritos are great too! Horchata tasted a little powdery...that wasn't my favorite, but besides that we had a great time. Patio is great during sunset. We didn't get any alcoholic drinks since we were here for lunch, but last time when we got margaritas, we enjoyed every single one!

I love the variety of taco choices. Freshly made and tastes very authentic. Kids meals are a great deal there including entree 2 sides and mini churros. Inside is very clean with gender neutral bathrooms. Bar side has fancy drinks in decorative cups that were colorful and had a great fruity taste. Servers are super sweet and interact with the customers.

So glad I gave this place a try! I've driven by the pick up window so many times, and there's always people waiting for orders - now I see why! They're doing take out and online orders right now. It was super easy to place the order online, and we picked up the order at the pick up window less than 30 mins later. Since this place is located right on 39th street, parking for pick up is a little challenging, but we can always find parking on side streets that's reasonably close. I got 4 tacos: abuela pastor, tempura shrimp, Korean beef, and Thai fried chicken. They were all delicious and traveled pretty well in the to go container. My roommate said the jackfruit taco was delicious, and she also enjoyed the esquite. We were pleasantly surprised at the amount of vegetarian options! Overall really great food! Will definitely be ordering more tacos soon!

Vegan Bowl {protein (impossible meat/BBQ jackfruit/grilled mushrooms), rice, black beans, lettuce, guacamole, tomato, onion, cilantro}

Tiki Taco is definitely an ideal summer spot - there's a spacious patio with several umbrellaed round picnic tables. There's also indoor seating but it appears more limited - a few tables and less than a dozen seats along the bar.  All the tables were very clean.   There's a counter/window inside to order at, and your food and drink is delivered to your table.  While you don't have a waiter/waitress there was always staff around to grab you a straw or anything you might need.    To eat, I ordered the "Vegan Bowl" with impossible meat (there was also the option to get BBQ jackfruit or grilled mushrooms), rice, black beans, cabbage, lettuce, guacamole, tomato, onion, cilantro, and jalapenos. To drink, I ordered a Paloma which was pretty good but the best part was the fun pineapple shaped glass it was served in.   Overall, good vibes, good food - excited to return to try another vegan option.

3 stars for The burritos here being really good, but I will say they are so Tiny. 15 dollars for a burrito that should be twice the size feels pretty crappy. If you can go to the Troost location, the portion size match the price.

Don't ever have them cater anything. They'll bring you 10% of the meat you need to feed a group, zero plates and no serving utensils.

Finally stopped by Tacos El Gallo and I wasn't disappointed. I ordered online without issue…read more Parking on SW Boulevard is always a nightmare, especially in that little area but I was able to find a spot after a few loops around. I wish I would've had more time to look around the market because it looked like they had a lot of good stuff but I'll have to go back and see. They do have tables inside that you can eat at. The food was done at the quoted time and was accurate. The one individual I encountered was friendly. The menu was very straightforward-tacos, burritos, and a few other items, all can be customized. I had to get an order of chips and queso. I really liked their queso. It had good flavor and wasn't overly spicy. The chips were fresh and held up to the queso nicely. I'm definitely probably alway going to order this when I go. I also tried a taco with carne asada. The tacos are the street variety but they are really good sized. They don't skimp on the meat. And the carne asada was really good. No gristle or gross bits. It was chopped finely and I'd definitely order it again. I also had to try a burrito. I tried the El pastor for that and added on all the toppings-cheese, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, and avocado. I also opted for extra meat because it was super cheap-like $1, so why not? Again, I was not disappointed. I did throw my burrito on the good 'ol George Foreman when I got home because they don't grill it at all and I wanted some grill marks on that tortilla. Otherwise, the el pastor was flavorful and tender and the toppings were all fresh. Per usual, my eyes were bigger than my stomach so I saved half of my burrito, but it was a welcome leftover meal the following day. Definitely check them out if you're on the boulevard and want some tasty, Mexican grub.

You order at a counter and pick up at another counter. They have a bar with toppings and sauces/salsas available for you to add to your dish. There are quite a few tables inside if you want to eat in. I happened to have been there on Sundays do the shop item area has been closed but it's fun to glance at some of the wares they have for you to purchase as you wait on your order. I've had birria tacos and we usually get a bunch of tamales as well! We freeze some and eat on them later. Yum! Everything is good and authentic. Everyone we have encountered has been nice. We will definitely stop back by when we are in the area!

I just took a swing at it, picked up a menu, and stood there. It took a while for somebody to acknowledge that I was there. The person who took my order was super involved, which is cool, but they needed some help, and the person who came by to help them seemed to be rather impatient, so that was one of the first things I noticed. They do bring your food out in a reasonable amount of time, delivered to your table. You have a number that attaches to a metal wand that they give to you. So the water station is set up in the back, you get your own water, but they were out of cups. They had a really cool aesthetic to it, with like the garage door where you can see all the downtown. The only problem was that the sun went down, and it started to get rather cold. Nobody ever closed the door, but I ordered the Asada fries. 3/5 heavy on the seasoning, but not so much on the flavor, it came across. It's kind of salty. I thought it would be different than what it was. The portion size was fine, and the green sauce that they offer you on the side really makes it better. Also ordered the CHORI queso dip lied on the chorizo for the portion size. The flavor was also a three out of five. The chip that they give you with it has a nice, good texture and reasonable seasoning. My wife had the mushroom Tinga tacos. She gave him four out of five. She really enjoyed them. The atmosphere is cool. The weights staff are really cool. I'd consider coming back on a Thursday. They have this cool thing that you can try new and upcoming dishes, and then they also have brunch, so I'm thinking about giving them a second shot. If you've never been, you should come and see what your opinion is, but really cool aesthetics and great views.

I've eaten at…read moreConchita Tacos (next to /upstairs from Kon Tiki) more times than I care to admit (okay, over 5 times.) I've tried nearly everything on the menu, minus the fries. Ordering is usually at a kiosk or with a member of the staff. It's fast casual, so set expectations that way in terms of service. Kansas City has good tacos (all over KCK especially.) I'd classify these taxos as slightly upscale, but totally worth the extra cost. The quality, care and love from the team shows. The corn tortillas are hand made with a gorgeous masa made from organic corn. You can smell and taste the difference. I usually get 3 tacos and split a side of totopos and salsa molcajete. I usually get the Al Pastor, Pescado (fried fish) and Camaron Poblano (Shrimp). The Salsas also have a wonderful luck of spiciness. Anytime I'm near the Crossroads or Downtown and want a quick bite that satisfies, you'll find me here. Just look for the "Tacos" sign with a lit up arrow!

This delicious spot is right next to or shares the same space as Kon tiki which makes it easy to order food while you are sitting at the bar.

Our food came out fairly quick and more importantly piping hot. Everyone was so friendly and educational about what we could order. Omg, please if you can.. try those fries!

You're right in the KC Live space of the P&L and there are drinks aplenty, so drop in! The food is about it what you'd think, but not 'off the chain' or anything. The house salsa has a firm punch about it, and when riding atop a housemade tortilla chip, it mixes quite well. I highly recommend the Spicy Margarita which is not for the faint of heart but not so spicy that you're calling the fire brigade. Great lime base, solid tequila, and sliced jalapeños make for a refreshing and enjoyable cocktail. The Carne Asada Tacos are a good choice, maybe a touch light on the carne, however, but tasty. Pricing is what it is for the location. A couple could get in & out with a cocktail and dinner for around $60, so that's reasonable. Service is friendly and they turn things quickly, the food comes fresh & ready, and it seems to be well-run. It gets loud in here, so be prepared, but that's just KC Live.
