Torchys Tacos is SOO good for a taco chain! They have so many delicious taco options with real, fresh ingredients. The Mr. Orange Taco with blackened salmon is my favorite--I get it every time I go! The wait time is never long and they have plenty of seating inside and outside. read more

Best queso in town! You have to get the queso here if you've never had it before. My favorite is the hillbilly queso which is their regular queso upgraded with chorizo. Whether you get the regular queso or the hillbilly queso, it is topped with guacamole, cotija cheese, cilantro, and diablo sauce. All of this mixed in gives the queso such an amazing flavor and a little kick thanks to the diablo sauce. So good! All of the tacos here are also delicious. My go to though is the green chile pork taco. This taco consists of pork carnitas, green chiles, cotija cheese, cilantro, and onions on a corn tortilla. Every taco here also comes with a sauce on the side. With the green chile pork taco, you get tomatillo sauce. Service at this location is usually fast but be prepared to wait a little for your food when the fall and spring semesters are in session at LSU. Bathrooms are always clean and the outdoor seating is nice and shaded. read more

Sigh. It hurts my heart to give this review because to know me is to know my love/obsession with Torchys! But the experience I had here was very unpleasant. Firstly, I tried to order online but it says this location doesn't accept web orders. No problem. So I go inside to order take out and I'm told it would be 35 minutes. Okay cool. So I sit and wait. 40 minutes, 45 minutes, 50 minutes, 55 minutes.... It also is important to know that I'm sitting right by the register and the cashier keeps looking at me! People are getting their orders and leaving that came after me. So I finally go up to the cashier and I'm like hi... I've been waiting for 1 hour what's going on? She says that they had 2 orders under the same name so they assumed mine was already filled. I'm extremely annoyed at this point so I said to just give me a refund. She goes to the back and says it'll be just a few more minutes. So after over an hour I get my order and when I'm driving back to New Orleans I see that my order isn't even correct! So yeah....this was the worst Torchys experience I've ever had read more

Charlie is killing it today! Amazing, friendly service and delicious food! Tastes just like I remember it back in Houston and Austin! Can't wait to come back! read more

First, I'd like to preface that I have loved Torchy's for years! From the first time I had it in Austin, I was hooked. I've had it many times over years in both Austin and Houston. I was so excited to hear that Baton Rouge would be getting a Torchy's in my home city! This is the third time getting Torchy's from this location, and it will probably be my last. I figured the first couple of times with it being a new restaurant they'd probably have a new restaurant learning curve to get past. This place has absolutely no business trying to be a restaurant. There is no organization to the madness. It should not take 90 minutes for two tacos, queso, salsa, and a margarita. I placed a carry out order over the phone at 8:30 PM. After ordering, I was informed my food would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I arrive in 15 minutes. It doesn't seem too busy/crowded especially since it is past the normal 7:00 PM weekend rush. I pay right away, and am handed my margarita. I am told we'll bring your order out to you shortly. After about 30 minutes, I start wondering if my food will be coming out soon. So, I begin nursing my margarita which has already begun to melt at this point. This is when I begin to take note of the employees, and how lost they seem when it comes to brining out orders as well as taking orders from the groups of people shuffling in. After another 20 minutes I have now finished my margarita, and start to notice people that have come in after me have started getting their food. At 9:30 I go up to the counter to ask about my carry out order that was placed an hour ago. At 9:42 I was given what was supped to be my order. Good thing I always check my orders. After checking I notice I have only been given two bags of chips, and two quesos. Not what I ordered. I inform an employee that my order is wrong, and have not received my tacos. I don't even mention the no salsa mistake as well. I'm informed that there must have been a mix up. Well obviously I think to myself, I ordered tacos and dips and am only given queso. Another 10 minutes go by, and I'm brought tacos, salsa, and more chips. Sorry about that the employee says. I've also given you some extra salsa. Thanks I say, but am really thinking to myself that's not extra, and at least now I've gotten my salsa. After all this time, I'm so ready to get out of here and eat my food. At long last I can enjoy my Luke warm queso, salsa, and hopefully my tacos are hot. Unwrapping the tacos, I discover they are cold. Not only are they cold, but they are not the tacos I've ordered. At this point I'm not going to drive back, inform Torchy's my order is wrong again, and wait even longer for them to get my order right. I begrudgingly eat the incorrect cold tacos, because I've now waited 90 minutes for food. TLDR If I could I'd rate this experience a 0, I would. PS I should've taken a picture of how poorly the tacos were made to add to this post. Stay away! read more

Took a drive with my daughter to try Torchy's. After a bit of a wait the manager personally came to our table (without being asked) bec she felt we were waiting too long..she then personally delivered our food. Amazing! I love good customer service. Added bonus was the trailer park tacos we ordered...so warm and delicious..we had the queso version and it was amazing. The chicken was crispy and flavorful and it was well packaged. The pico was delicious and fresh as well...great experience.. yummy food. Great service! read more

So so good! There's a variety of options and they're very flexible as far as customizing your meal. Almost everything is good here. Literally get anything except the fried cookie dough thing. Not only does it have a terrible name, it was nasty lol. It's coated in a corn flake type thing before fried and that totally ruins it, in my opinion. Other than that, go nuts. The place is clean, the employees are nice, and the wait times usually aren't crazy. read more

Torchy's Baton Rouge is now as good as the one in the Heights on Houston! The first time I came here I was a little disappointed in comparison. I'm not sure what they've started doing different but whatever it is, it's working! Maybe even better than the one on Houston! Super fresh, delicious flavor combinations and all the new menu specials I've tried are incredible. read more

Had the Salmon taco which was delicious! Most places I've been to don't offer salmon. The service was excellent, food served quickly. Salsa is the bomb, very authentic. Highly recommended read more

Delicious taco! I got the Brushfire flour tortilla. It had Jamaican jerk chicken, grilled jalapeños, mango, Sour cream and cilantro with Diablo sauce. The sauce was delicious. Tasty, very hot but tasty. Yummm!! It came out quickly, but my sisters came out almost 10 minutes later. Mehhhh, only down side. Great space near campus of LSU. !!! read more

Went back on a late Saturday afternoon & ordered a variety of tacos with queso to go. Quick line & waited about 30 mins for my order (happy to have gotten a cup for water while I waited). No big deal though. The disappointing part was eating the tacos at home--all mediocre. I'll admit that I've eaten at Torchys in Houston & Austin at least 20 times since about 2009 and have high standards for what the tacos should taste like (it's literally a favorite for most Texans). This Baton Rouge location really just doesn't compare unfortunately. The queso is still spot on at least and is the only thing I'll be getting from here in the future. read more

Stopped here after touring the Magnolia Plantation. Employees were all super friendly. Clean restaurant. And our taco's and queso were delicious!! I had the Fried Avocado taco (and others had the chicken fajita taco, Trailer Park Taco, Brush Fire Taco. We all thought they were good. I only gave four stars because they did not get my order right...I ordered the fried avocado Taco but they gave me the fresh avocado Taco. Maybe they were looking out for my health! Well... then they should get five stars!! This is a great little Taco shop!! read more

Ordered lunch online today and although they screwed up the order a tiny bit (forgot the sour cream) everything was still delicious.

Horribly decision to go there for lunch today. I walked in at 11:20, and there was no line. I ordered then waited for 40 minutes. No good. No refund. Complained twice. Got no estimate on how long it would take. I had to leave or I would be late for a meeting. They said there was a large phone order ahead of me. But no one told me that when they took my money. It must be badly managed and not equipped to handle walk-in orders timely. Unless you have 90 minutes to kill for lunch, don't go here. read more

Honestly, I forgot to take a photo of this food because I was THAT excited to eat it. I'Ve never left a review on anything before, but Torchy's was so incredible that I just have to. 1. When we walked in, we were enthusiastic greeted by both a Torchy's team member and the team members behind the register. The initial team member greeted us, checked us in, checked our ID's, gave us our wristbands, and told us where to proceed next. We got to the register, where we were greeted again by the team members behind the register. They answered any and all questions we had, made recommendations, and were very thorough to ensure our order was accurate. Once we ordered, they explained how we would receive our food and what to do with the pager. 2. Management was ON POINT. There was a manager behind the register that was giving feedback to team members on their performance. Another manager came over to us while we were sitting to check to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Management and team members were constantly walking around in the dining area to assist any guests and clean up if necessary. As I'm typing this, someone who I'm assuming is the GM, asked us how everything was, asked what we got, told us about how the food's made--just incredibly friendly. 3. Cleanliness. I know this place just opened, but it is SPOTLESS. There are team members diligently cleaning all areas all the time. Everything looks and smells like perfection. 4. The food. I have friends from Austin who raved about this place, and I didn't really believe the hype. I assumed this was some undeserved "In N Out" hype like you get from people on the west coast. I could not have been more wrong. The guac was incredibly fresh and tasted like it came straight from a 5 star resort in Mexico. I ordered a Trailer Park Taco, made it trashy (comes with queso) and kept the lettuce, and the Beef Fajita Taco. I couldn't tell you which one I liked more. Fresh, quality ingredients on a handmade flour tortilla. The food was honestly incredible. 5. The service was impeccable. Not to mention our food came in less than ten minutes. It's high end restaurant caliber food with the efficiency of a quick service establishment. 6. I ordered a Paloma, and it was fresh with a hint of spice--absolute perfection. I literally have nothing even remotely related to a complaint about this place. Everything is fresh and made in house. I could go on forever. I never get this excited about a restaurant; The service and food are perfection, and we will definitely be coming back on a very regular basis. This beats out any Mexican restaurant in town. read more

I am very impressed by Torchy's! I have heard how all my Texas friends love it so I was excited to try! I had to try their queso because of how many good things I've heard about it and yes it was so good! The guacamole in it is a great addition and gives it nice flavor! Now, for the tacos, I got a Baja shrimp taco and a chicken fajita taco both on corn tortillas! The shrimp taco was so good! It came with a chipotle aioli sauce that gave it a nice spice! I also really enjoyed the chicken fajita taco! I will definitely be back to try other tacos! They all looked so good! read more

Okay so I really really love the brand, Torchy's but this location is really terrible. I've been more than enough times to make the assessment that the kitchen/bar tenders/cashiers all don't know what they're doing. Firstly, everyone who works here is rude. I've experienced every thing from unhelpful bar tenders, the young girl that's the cashier waiting on people who've come in after me, my food just sitting on the shelf on the front while no one called my name or notified me that it was ready and the like. It's pretty damn awful and the girl who's the cashier everytime I go on is T E R R I B L E. Second, the food. The tacos are always so poorly constructed. This is NOTHING like the Torchys you get in TX. The queso is good. But that's it. Bartenders suck, cashiers suck, and food sucks. Avoid. read more

Had the bayou pirate! Fried crawfish was amazing hit the spot. The flour tortillas were definitely scratch made. Had amazing bartender Emily!! Place was very clean and took precautions seriously, this was communicated with a very sassy tone which is right up this businesses personality. When I stop by LSU. This is my spot to chat and catch up. read more

Ok, so let me be the bad guy I guess. I read all the reviews & asked a few people & this was supposed to be a hit. Let me start by saying, it was a cool vibe, had superb frozen margaritas & the chips & queso were great! Customer service was amazing and they were so helpful & made the ordering process easy. Guy delivering the food described our whole order! I'll start with the street corn. If you're ok with canned corn, you'll probably like this. I am not a fan. I suppose it is too much to ask for fresh scraped corn off the cob. Anyway, the first taco I tried was the Baja shrimp. Ehh, it was tasty but I've certainly had better. Next I tried the trailer trash? & made it "trashy". Cute, but still not impressed. Ugh, it's just me because I'm a really picky taco eater. I know this. read more

This Place is Great!!! So yes there is Hype about Torchy's and I see why. The Manager Emily made the experience complete. I had the Queso, Rice, Corn, And Democrat. I also had a keeping it 100 Margarita. Everything was impressive and great portions, my advice is to save a little room for the cookie dough dessert. read more

The food was pretty good! This location doesn't have happy hour specials and on game days they only sell large margaritas and those cost $10 (not even that large). 3 stars because the food was cool, my taco was good but kinda cold, and I didn't really like the vibes. read more

Love Torchy's! The Green Chili Queso + Chips is a must try. Queso topped with guacamole, Cotija cheese, cilantro and Diablo sauce. Delicious! Go on Taco Tuesday for a deal. The trailer park taco is also discounted on Tuesday. If you are trying to watch your fat and calories, ask for grilled chicken. If you want to be bad, ask for it "trashy." It's good either way! read more

Great concept and nice vibe/ interior but it would be so great if the food matched up. Burritos were cold, tacos barely warm. Food flavor - meh. Chips and salsa not brought out until long after the food was delivered. Tables were covered in trash and residual food left by previous visitors. A real bummer if you ask me. This "just off campus" eatery has a TON of potential but something isn't lining up. It's time to step up your game Torchy's. read more
