I went last week. I enjoyed talking with one of the owners and listening to their vision for what they want to do. You're going to get quality tacos with fresh chopped meats and some imagination you would get from a food truck.


I had the steak, buffalo chicken and fish tacos. Also tried their homemade salsa and chips which didn't disappoint.

You could really tell how fresh the ingredients were in the steak taco. Probably will be my go to taco. The fish taco was amazing and they nailed the west coast flavor.

I was probably the lowest on the buffalo chicken taco. The buffalo sauce was a little too creamy for me.


I'll be back often when I'm in the mood for tacos. Hope this place catches on.

Sounds like my kind of place and I would like to try it but I can't find an address. With all due respect to the owners, how the hell (in this day and age) do you have zero Internet presence? Nothing came up on Google or Maps. ????

Can someone help me out with an address? No. I don't know where the post office is out there so I really need a numeric. Might mention to owners when you return that requiring detective work to locate their business is probably counterproductive.

I did find them on Yelp finally but it isn't like the majority of people outside of FDB use that app.

What type of service was it? More like an Izzo's or a sit-down restaurant with a server and everything?

Only negative I've read in reviews is that everything appears to be store-bought: the tortillas, salsa, guac, cheese, etc. Doesn't really appear to be an authentic street taco.

I love this concept.

There is a chain here called Twisted Taco. They have about 20 different combinations. Greek, Buffalo, etc. etc.

For some reason they are struggling though.

I can't think of a better platform for creativity and sampling than a taco. You can literally put anything in one and make it taste good.
