Reviews for Torchy's Tacos in Austin, TX
Always good! Generous portions and reliable curbside during covid times. It always pays to check your order too, as they... occasionally forget an item or include stuff you didn't order. Overall, they get it right most of the time. Update. Droppingtwo stars because they are filling the salsa cups up to about 20% full these days??? What a waste of plastic. Read more
I'm not sure why it seems to be just me as so many other people LOVE this place. The food is great but this place seems to be... incapable of basic customizations to orders. I've stopped ordering delivery (which is best given the savings to my wallet andwaist line) because 2/3rds of my orders would be wrong and it was getting exhausting to often having to drive in anyway forexchanges. I'm convinced most of their staff just don't look at order details. Getting things fixed (as in driving back in andgetting a replacement defeating the entire purpose of delivery and not getting a refund on delivery fees) is also a hassle asanytime someone answers the phone it seems like they're clueless as to proceed and I end up getting bounced to two differentpeople to get assured that I can come in and get a replacement. Every time I think its been long enough and I give them a shotagain I'm still disappointed by the lack of attention to detail. If you're the kind of person that can taste where cilantro usedto be in an item then you're doomed to disappointment here. The hillbilly queso I ordered in the attached picture didn't evenhave the hillbilly part of the queso (no chorizo) though they did leave out the cilantro which is really confusing. Giving thislocation a 2 because that's the closest rating to the ratio of orders that have been correct for me here. Read more
Best breakfast tacos in the world. Really! I've been to many locations and in general, the service can be slow but friendly.... Never had a bad meal here and I've been going since they opened. Read more
Everything in this place is dirty. I was afraid to touch anything, even my receipt. There was a fly circling my head the whole... time I was waiting for my food, luckily I know karate and it didn't get me. I ordered two tacos, the brisket and the pork tacos,both were very dry and flavorless. Two stars because the queso was pretty good and the chips were fresh. However, we're talkingabout basic Tex-Mex so I won't be back. I got Matt's El Rancho to disappoint me a little less. ???? Read more
Torchy's Tacos has a diverse selection of tacos with cute names to boot. They are reasonable prices. I think they are good but... not as good as everyone says they are. If you try the Congress location you will find yourself waiting in a long line for thesetacos. These are not worth the bustle of a packed restaurant. If you can find yourself at this location and have a short waitthen you won't be disappointed. Try the Fried Chicken and the breakfast tacos. Read more
Tacos at Torchy?s are super delicious! Well sized for the price. The only reason for a 4 star rating instead of 5 would be the... tortillas. The best tacos are made with freshly cooked tortillas. The tortillas at Torchy?s appear to be mass produced and arenot served hot. The tacos appear to be assembled by putting the fresh ingredients on top of a pre-bought / mass producedtortillas and then served to the customer. Read more
As Torchy's Tacos shops go this one is an acceptable option. The food was great and service is excellent. The reason it's... acceptable is for those two reasons. If you're craving really good tacos it's worth an hour or so drive for this food. Whatit's missing is a bit of the soul you get at one with a bar and a really nice outdoor seating area. An OD seating area is ahallmark of a great Torchy's, as anyone who has been to the "original" one will attest is a key metric. If you want a greatTorchy's experience it might be worth the extra bit of driving to get to a stand alone Torchy's with a bar and outdoor seating. Read more
Ordered to go: 1. Why do the matadors I ordered look like they?ve been sitting under a warming light all morning? No way those... tacos got a soggy after 20 minutes. 2. They forgot the Diablo sauce. I used to really like this place? Read more
