Taco Del Mar

I was craving Mexican so I went here. Great price for the amount of food you get! The only guy working was friendly as well.

I absolutely adore this place. It’s such a simple yet fantastic burrito that you will get with just the right amount of ingredients. It can be a little pricey for «fast food» but it’s definitely worth it if you’re in the mood for a good burrito!

I was working in the area for the day and needed a place to grab some quick lunch on 130^th, the land of the soul sucking power centre. I’d been made wise that Taco Del Mar actually includes the word «vegan» on their menu, so I went in, expecting a mediocre (though vegan friendly) burrito. And, mediocre is what I got.
It was eerily dead, to the point where not even all of the seating was set up. I was given blank stares by the two employees standing behind the counter as though they had never seen another soul in their lives. I was not greeted. I ordered a vegan mondo burrito.
The staff member applied my selections very wrecklessly. However, he was at least knowledgable that I couldn’t have «meat or cheese» and repeated this to himself more than once. The toppings I selected were guac, rice, black beans, lettuce, salsa, hot sauce and it was packed full. The total came to just over $ 8, with no sides or drink. The negligent staff member did not even wait until I was finished paying for my order to grab his phone and start texting. He did not offer me my receipt or EVEN WISH FOR ME TO HAVE A GOOD DAY. I would have stayed in and eaten and read, but I instead headed back to my office as I felt so damn awkward. My burrito, though full of seemingly great stuff, tasted like hate a little bit and was not super satisfying or flavorful. The rice tasted like Uncle Ben’s and there was way too much of it, though I rarely expect much from fast food the once a year that I eat it.

WTF, the name translates literally to «Taco of the Sea!» BRING BACK THE FISH TACOS!!!

Went on Saturday Feb 12^th at noon, and there was no one in the restaurant, that should have been my first hint.
Ordered two soft tacos, beef, and chicken.
Meat quality is similar to Taco bell = bad news. The pulled chicken and runny salsa made my taco a dripping mess.
Management /​staff were helpful, and friendly, which was nice.
Will not go back. Go to mcdonalds next door, or edo, or anywhere else.

The father/​son combo that runs this place is great — super friendly and they’re serving up some good healthy food.
The Mondo Burrito is usually my choice, and they’ll load it up anyway you want. I always get extra Jalenpenos or Gauc and they never charge me. The kids always get the hard tacos, and they love the salsa and nachos that comes with it.
Place is always clean, never too busy (from my 6 – 7 times there) and is decently priced for what you get.
With McDonalds right next door to it, it’s definitely the better choice.

ok. the location is very important in this review!
I love this location. One. the service is great for a fast food place. you always feel as though you got your monies worth.
I love the mondo burrito — it keeps you filled for HOURS. My other fave is the two enchilada platter. for fast food this is so refreshing. it just seems a little more authentic and definitely much more tastier than the Taco-​Time close by.
You gotta try this place at least once. be careful with the hot sauce as it’s quite spicy. and the GUAC — mm sooo goood!
like I said. I like this location. but i’ve tried one by sunrdige mall. I found then to cheap out on the meat and just didn’t taste as good.
I’d say be ready to fork out about $ 10. but that’s the same amount you’d spend at the Edo’s next door. and Mcdonalds on the other side? I’ll pass.
Ps. go with an appetite.
