    2 taco combo with guacamole
    Tom S.

    Awesome vegetation options. I had the 2-taco combo with the beer-battered cauliflower and the weekly special (spicy falafel). Both were delicious. The guacamole was also fresh and yummy.

    Velvet Taco has a fun, upbeat ambiance with a casual, modern vibe that's great for a quick bite or hanging out. The food is fresh, flavorful, and creative with unique taco options that stand out. Service is fast, friendly, and efficient, even when it's busy

    Was in a takeout mood and decided to treat myself after finishing a stretch of nights at work. Haven't had Velvet Taco in quite some time so I decided to try it out again. For my order, I got the spicy tikka chicken, buffalo chicken, and an order of chips and guac. The tikka chicken tacos are a MUST. The flavor is great and, for me, the basmati rice is perfect tie-in for texture in the taco. I got three of them. I got one of the buffalo chicken just to change things up. It was good as well. No complaints with it. I just think the tikka is really the star of the show. Lastly, the chips and guac were tasty as well - I mean, how can you go wrong with chips and guac? Overall, would order again - Velvet Taco is a go-to for fusion tacos.

    It's Christmas Eve! Tacos were on the menu after a long afternoon at the Zoo. Being from Florida I had never visited a Velvet Taco. The variety was intriguing. I opted for Korean Fried Rice and a salmon taco. Upgraded with a side of delicious Guacamole, Chips and Margarita. Service was awesome. Food delicious.

    We try to come in at least once a week. Ash is our server/order taker. He is always jubilant and helpful. The staff is friendly and our order is tasty and flavorful. We've been to several Velvet Tacos (even the new one in Waco. This Fort Worth location is our favorite. Thank you Velvet Taco staff for always making our visit memorable!

    Tacos so good I went 2 days in a row! 1st day was great but the 2nd time they got my order wrong. I turned around and went back and spoke to the manager. I wasn't able to get his name but he apologized profusely and remade my order. The service is fantastic and the tacos are amazing! I recommend the beer battered cauliflower and buffalo chicken taco. Can't believe I always drove past Velvet Taco.

    Great spot with lots of options for both veg and non-veg. The paneer taco and beer-battered cauliflower are must-tries if you're going veg. Nice outdoor seating, chill vibe, and the staff are really friendly.

    Velvet Taco is such a classic spot for unique tacos. A little pricey for a taco, but they're STACKED. You NEED to try their chicken tikka taco if you haven't yet. Their queso is also delicious. I tried their chimichurri steak taco for the first time and enjoyed it, but I unfortunately wasn't too impressed with the crisp tots and sunny egg. It tasted dry and the egg didn't have that perfect runny yolk. The vibes and energy are always lively at this location. It can take a while to get through the line to order when it's busy, but the tacos are served pretty quickly. Seating is first come first serve. Note: If you order an alcoholic drink, you'll need to pair it with food (which can be an order of chips which are $1). Bonus tip: If you sign up for their rewards program, you can get a free slice of red velvet cake on your birthday! There's a small parking lot available, and I believe there's an overflow lot in the back. Overall, Velvet is a go-to spot of mine whenever I'm craving a taco!

    The tacos are very delicious, I highly recommend them. The service is great and the place is super clean.

    Tacos were good and service was fast. Unfortunately I had something weird in my queso and also had a sticker in my guac.

    Famous for their Red Velvet cake!

    Everybody loves this place. You can practically come in sun up to sundown. Lots of tacos to make everyone happy. Patio is good lots of people watching. There is an overflow parking in the back and to the right!

    Salmon taco #15
    Jennifer B.

    Nice and quick even with a crowd! Stopped in on a weekday to catch up with a friend and what a treat. It was a bit busy for a Thursday evening but the line moves pretty quick. I went with a shrimp taco and sangrita margarita w/Tajin rim. Then decided to grab a second taco which was a salmon taco. They both had a little hint of spice that wasn't so bad. (I don't do spicy at all). I was able to consume all that was placed before me. Let me say that I was really buzzed after finishing the margarita. Like what did they put in there? Lol. All in all, it was affordable and very delicious. I'll definitely be back. Be warned that parking can be a beast in this area but don't let that stop you from giving them a try.

    How much for the half chicken?

    Whole chicken meal takeout deal is just $10 on mondays!

    Is making home made tortillas in the foreseeable future?

    One day I'm sure; but honestly it doesn't make that much of a difference. Coming from a tortilla expert 😙

Perfectly seasoned grilled chicken, warm, soft bolillo bread, and just the right amount of toppings to make every bite juicy, flavorful, and super satisfying. It's crave-worthy comfort food that doesn't miss. The portions are generous, the prices are more than fair, and the service is always friendly. It has that welcoming, no-frills vibe that lets the food speak for itself--and trust me, it does.

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
