CaFé Tacuba

Finally a different Mexican experience. I was hoping for more items like lengua and cabeza, but other than that....Wow. I'm not knocking all the texmex in town, most places do a good job but really it's all the same and pretty cookie cutter. Tacuba has a lot going for it. The dishes were all well composed and well made. Birria was very meaty. The Huevos con Chorizo (which I asked for fried instead of scrambled) was very homey. Flautas were really well made. Fish tacos looked great (I didn't try them) and, not pictured, excellent wings. The star for me was the Street Nachos....wow. Yes, really good queso, melted cheese, nachos BUT tons of greens. It was almost a salad. Really excellent. To top this all off, atmosphere. Not loud, traditional music, mid-upscale decor. Fantastic

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ¡Más sabroso que el desayuno de la abuela! CaFé Tacuba is hands-down the place to start your morning if you’re craving something auténtico, delicioso, and full of sabor. The moment you walk in, you feel like you’re being hugged by Mexico itself, from the colorful decor to the warm smiles of the staff. Speaking of the staff, they’re on it. Attentive, friendly, and always serving with a great attitude, like they actually enjoy being there (crazy, right?). It’s like having tías and primos bringing you food with love. Let’s talk food. The presentation? Fancy enough to make your camera eat first. The flavor? Like angels in sombreros dancing on your tongue. The portions? Generous enough to feed your soul and your cousin who “wasn’t hungry.” And the prices? Let’s just say you’ll leave fu

Wow wow wow!!! This is a delicious hidden gem in Cedar Rapids! The food here is excellent. On Sundays, their breakfast is served until 1pm. This was great for us. We ended up trying their pancakes, coffee, breakfast tamales, a breakfast skillet and the fajita omelette. EVERYTHING was incredible. The pancake was soft and delicate, the skillet was fresh and cheesy, the tamales are stuffed with meat and the omelette just has no words. This was probably the best omelette and skillet we’ve ever had. To top it off, the verde is amazing. You must get this. The coffee section is massive and delicious. I couldn’t believe how great this was. Even the chips and salsa were to die for. The space is smaller, but decorated beautifully and fun. The service was also very good and attentive. The menu is als

Yesterday was probably the fourth time we have eaten there. Pleasant and helpful staff. Nice array of flavorful Mexican dishes. Good chips - got a flight of 3 salsas - great flavors! (House salsa is excellent - the flight was for 😊 fun). Al Pastor was excellent; will try birria next time.

Decided to stop by for breakfast while in the area and was pleasantly surprised. The coffee and drinks were good, there was a wide selection. We all had a hard time deciding on what to get for food, there were so many choices. French toast and Kori Skillet were both great and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. Portions were generous and we all left satisfied. Definitely will try lunch or dinner next time we are in the area. Highly recommend you give it a try!
