Torchys Tacos

A nice neighborhood haunt with full bar and a great patio. The food is generally consistent, however on my most recent visit the beef fajita taco was over sauced causing the tortilla to be impossible to eat by hand. Luckily they provide free forks at this establishment!

The lady that works there at the cashier is awesome and super friendly! Awesome food but I would love for them to up their sauce game. Many taco places around have awesome sauces

Whenever I’m in TX, Torchy’s is a MUST EAT. Pro tip: order your Trailer Park taco “extra trashy”.

Saturday afternoon, about 2:30. Beautiful day, perfect for tacos. Got front row parking, too! An order of salsa and a order of queso to start us off, with a cold Sprite to wash it down. I got the Chicken Fajita tacos, the fella got the Trailer Park tacos, both with flour tortillas. (Pics of Chicken Fajita tacos.) *Pro tip - scoop some of that yummy queso onto your taco. You won't be mad! I didn't try the salsa, but the queso was the bomb diggity. Hooray for fresh cilantro. Yay for just enough hot sauce to give it a bite without hurting me. A+ for Cotija cheese. I'm not really one to say I love avocado, but the dollop of guacamole was welcomed as well. The tacos were just full enough to be satisfied, but not make a huge mess with everything falling out when ya bite into it. Good ratio of meat to toppings/veggies. It was a bit juicy so holding it over the tray to catch drips was a must, but 10/10 worth the effort. The parking lot was kinda full, but expected for lunchtime on a Saturday. Most of the people I saw were out on the patio. It was super perfect weather for outdoor dining so that makes sense. We stayed indoors, though, because indoors was quieter and less populated. Our chips & dips came out quickly, and the tacos came just a few minutes later. Long enough to enjoy some light snacking, but not get full before the actual meal arrived. The server was polite for the few seconds he was at the table to drop off our baskets. He fulfilled his obligation and left us to eat in peace. It was good. I didn't see but just a couple employees masked up, but there was also minimal interaction between pretty much everyone. Didn't visit the washroom so nothing to report on cleanliness there, but the rest of the dining room was clean, and the drinks station was tidy. Parking lot free of random debris. I liked that the "take it home" supplies were readily available at the drinks station so I could package up what we had left how I like (I'm picky so that's cool...) Was a good visit. I get to Austin a couple few times a month (from Magnolia - 135 miles) so we always go out for a meal while I'm here. Glad to add Torchy's to the list.

A must stop for taco lovers! Torchys is one of my very top fast food places to eat.
