Some of the best, and most eclectic tacos I have ever had. The complex flavors were like that of no other taco joint in Austin. We were there when there was a decent crowd, with a pretty sizable line, and all of our tacos were absolutely perfect in every regard. Yes, the serving of chips was fairly small, but a simple and polite request, and a server brought us another serving without charge.
The tacos were full of flavor, and bursting with deliciousness....I had the Cuban Pig, and the Buffalo chicken!!!
Do yourself a favor, and go here, and bring friends. You will not be disappointed!
Very hip inside, and patio! This is Texas, and we love our outdoor chill scene!
Great beer on tap! I've yet to try the margaritas!
I'll be back soon!
Amazing place went there for lunch then dinner as well and ordered the same Paneer fried 😀 well I am a vegetarian and best Vegetarian Tacos I ever had.. big shout out to the folks working there so friendly. If you are in Austin… stop by this place won’t disappoint you for sure..
First time at Velvet Taco and it won't be my last. Great service, fun location, and seriously the best tacos. Oh, and did I mention they have a curried queso that's to die for? And super yummy elote and chips? I had the Kobe smash burger taco and the Mexi-Cali shrimp taco. Definitely chose correctly!
Every dish you can think of in a taco. Variety of flavor and lots of it. Crazy expensive for tacos but worth every bite. Paloma ranch water to wash it down. Large fans outside to make for comfortable seating ambience.
The red velvet cake really was DELICIOUS. So moist and a great chocolate flavor. The tacos are also tasty and reasonably sized, a little bit bigger than a regular street taco. The queso is also super delicious, would highly recommend! The staff were also really friendly and patient which was awesome!
Reliably good location in the domain for some tasty tacos. Have returned many times and I always find the tacos are good. On my most recent visit, I got a couple of the salmon tacos. Excellent and light too. See photo.
Can be a bit loud with the music blaring.
Meanwhile, I like the outdoor patio area and it's a bonus imho that there's a place to wash your hands independent of the bathroom.
Great taco place in the domain Mall. Its usually crowded on weekends and this place is open late. Great vibe. You order at the counter and they call your name when your food is ready. They also have small selection of bear and cocktails. I got the the ranch water for drink which was good. For tacos I got the buffalo chicken taco, spicy chicken tikka masala taco, Nashville hot tofu taco. Loved the chicken tikka masala taco and the Nashville hot. Recommend trying these two. Services was quick. Place is maintained. The outdoor seating is great and usually full on weekends.
Trendy place to eat. Includes inside and outside seating. They offer a wide variety of customized tacos. The vegetarian mushroom was delicious as all the flavors meshed very well together. The steak was also good. It had a bit too much heat to not have been marked spicy on the menu, and the meat amount was minimal. The shrimp taco was my least favorite of the three (note: shrimp is normally my favorite meat). I added some guacamole dip to it, which made it more appetizing and seemed to round out the flavors better. The street corn and guacamole dip were both delicious. The swiril margarita was a regular frozen margarita with non frozen juice. The flavors together were very fruity and took the bite margaritas normally have away. Overall it was a nice place to eat and enjoy company.
The line moved so quickly and the food was beauuuuutiful! I got a fish taco, a shrimp taco and we also ordered chips and guac. The fish taco was just a little lacking in flavor, but the shrimp taco was AMAZING! Would definitely go back for more. There's not enough indoor seating in my opinion. The tables are communal but everyone who's in a group sits so spaced out that you can't really hop into a table. Overall it was pretty good!
Velvet Taco @ The Domain is a great place to get a delicious and unique taco. The spicy tikka chicken taco is my personal favorite, but there are plenty of other options to choose from. The service is always good, and the location is in a great spot in the Domain. I highly recommend checking it out if you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal.
Vegetarian review: I will start with a shout out to Amane the guy who took our order - so full of energy, style, presence and solid people skills! He has a knack for putting energy into you.
The food at Velvet Taco is superb! the Fresco Guacamole was SO tasty - the only change I would do is ask for more of the 'fresco' sauce to drive the flavor down as you dig deeper through the layers with you tortilla.
I'd say the paneer taco is 'okay' and doesn't really hit the spot for some reason - and maybe that's because it's battered and fried instead of being marinated and 'grilled'. They should have a 'paneer version' of the spicy tikka chicken.
The Nashville taco was my favorite - so flavorful and spicy as well. It was absolutely delicious!
Next time, I will try the red velvet cake - I only heard about it after we left the restaurant.
