Government Taco is closing at the end of the month. What the heck happened? Food was good even after JayD left. Anyone have any insight?

No surprise really. Food is overpriced and honestly terrible. Went about a year ago and spent way too much money on small, bland tacos.

I always thought it was very overrated

That should be no surprise to anyone.
The drinks kept that business afloat. I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did though. Dry tacos. Way too imaginative on some of their taco selections as well.
As mentioned above, Barracuda is a much better option for both quality and price. It doesn't help that they're basically competing next door to Superior.

I was never impressed with the food there. Yes, Barricuda is a much better option.

I never went after they moved from White Star. They have to have been struggling for a while though. There is never anyone in their parking lot.

the food was terrible and took them forever to get it out

Good. It wasnt good any more. Rock paper taco much better. And now there is another taco place with better outdoor area right down government.

Government Taco is a ghost town.

What the hell happened?
There wasn’t even a bartender there at 5:00 on a Friday!
I’ll often pass by at peak hours and it’s reliably deserted.
Food seems decent enough
People like to complain about $5 tacos but they sure as hell eat $15 wraps at Beer Garden or $20 entrees at Elsie’s. Superior has always been really expensive but they’re packed every weekend.
I will say this. The booths had crumbs on the tables and seats. But why? It’s inexcusable.
What gives?

I went to Gov't Taco once and got one that tasted absolutely awful. I have never had a taco where I could not at least finish it. I don't even remember the name of it, but either something was sour/bad or they just needed new recipes.

If you like tacos with a side of roaches, that’s your place

Jay left for a reason. Too much interference from corporate and unable to staff his kitchen.

Praise god, they had the worst fricking commercials during off the bench in the mornings.

Not surprising. Barracuda is Shakespeare and Govt Taco is Dr. Seuss

Barricuda has the closest thing to a San Diego fish taco. That's why I go there. This town needs to up its fish taco game.
