   I very much enjoyed my dining experience at Tacolicious. Loved the marina girl salad, vampiro taco and mezcal margarita. Would recommend!

   A good, casual place to grab some drinks and tacos and meet friends. It was extremely HOT inside the restaurant, so I'd aim for outside seating if you can. Tacos were all solid - the Spicy Shrimp was a favorite, thought it's really spicy! And I liked my Pasion cocktail (better than the watermelon, which was ok). We did keep running out of water (likely because it was so hot) and the delivery of the tacos and which was which was a little confusing, but overall enjoyed.

   Good tacos. Pricey. Service was poor. Pretty empty, but took 10 minutes to order, only checked once during the meal, and we were done and waiting for the check for a solid 15 minutes.

   One of my favorite places to eat anywhere! The food is wonderful though expensive. The service is always wonderful! All of the staff are kind & helpful! Most of the outdoor tables are under a covered pergola so it is pretty nice year round. They have heaters when it is cold. The inside of the restaurant is lovely but with COVID, I do not eat inside any restaurant. Overall, I just love this place!

    Nice selection of tacos that were all quite good. The tacos are pretty small so 2 is a bit on the lite side, but 4 is definitely plenty. My favorites were Vampiro and the Baja cod and Carnitas was very good, but a bit plain (e.g. wish there were more interesting toppings included). The chorizo was too spicy for my taste. Outdoor seating was nice. It was a bit too loud indoors.

    Tacos are really good. Tasteful, good quality tortillas, beef, shrimp and fish were delicious! They offer a large variety of salsas and chips and salsa are on the house. Service is above and beyond! Congratulations on the team! Cocktails were not that good.

    This is one of our favorite places - especially when they have the seasonal strawberry margaritas. All of their margaritas are the best anywhere, but the strawberry is phenomenal! Ask for the "dip trio" or "holy trinity" even if it's not on the menu. It's queso, guacamole, and refried beans - a little bit of everything to go with the chips. Add the drinks and a few tacos, it's the perfect way to end the week. And try the buñuelos too, if you're looking for something sweet.

    The restaurant was short staffed. The restaurant charges mandatory service charge of approx $5 that all restaurant charge . However it was surprising to see that Tacolicious, unlike other restaurants charge tax on this service charge. All other restaurants charge service tax after they have added the tax to just the food and drinks. I believe this is not right and they are making money off of the customers visiting their restaurant and should not be allowed to do this.

    What do I love most about Tacolicious? The super fun atmosphere? The wonderfully attentive and friendly servers? The great beer selection? Or the incredibly delicious tacos and salads? I’ll have to keep,coming back to try to answer that question.

    Food and service is good! Not amazing, but solid. Really great for groups as you can order lots of different tacos and they automatically give you discounts based on the total number of tacos.

    The service was slow. The orders were put on two trays instead of giving each person their order. It was confusing and made it unenjoyable to figure out who ordered what.

    Tacolicious - Palo AltoResponded on April 15, 2022Hi Shea, Sorry to hear this. We do plate food family style which should of been explained to you at the start. I spoke with the team about this and hopefully you will give us another try and see the improvements that we have made.

    If you love tacos with a twist, this is the place to go. The tacos are prepared just right and packed with flavor. They didn't skimp on the fillings. We haven't been back since the pandemic and we're glad we did. The salsa and chips are SO delicious. We'll be returning for sure!
