Customer Reviews
Decided to give this place a try considering I pass by it all the time. First off, the employees are very friendly. They have great energy and are professionally friendly. They menu has a pretty good selection of items to chose from but just keep in mind the portions are a bit on the smaller side so if your hungry, chose a plate option. I think even though the servings are smaller, the price is appropriate. I got the 2 chicken taco plate that comes with beans and rice on the side. I got a small soda and with tip it was about $15 total. They have beers if you chose to partake but I didn’t want to drink, I was tired haha. The dining area is small but very clean. They have a few tables and Booths and a few tvs. A basketball game was playing and an Animal documentary show. The food was served
My boyfriend and I ate dinner here last night, and we will be back for more. The tacos were amazing! I had the calabacitas, which were tasty and especially good with the green salsa. We got the plate with our tacos, but did not receive the rice and beans initially, which were promptly brought out after we let the staff know, who were nice and friendly. I also ordered chili cheese fries, but the cheese was not melted. Overall, we had a pleasant first-time experience.
1st time trying this place. Amazing food and friendly service. Definitely coming back soon
I tried Casa Taco for the first time and it was fantastic! I ordered the Calabacitas Tacos and the Puffy Adobo Chicken Tacos, and both were delicious. The Calabacitas Tacos were packed with perfectly grilled veggies, fresh lettuce, and juicy diced tomatoes — super flavorful and satisfying without feeling heavy. The Puffy Adobo Chicken Tacos were a real standout — the shell was crispy on the outside but soft inside, and the chicken was seasoned so well. Everything tasted super fresh and homemade. The staff was friendly and my order came out quickly. Definitely a new go-to spot for tacos in Albuquerque! Highly recommend if you’re craving something fresh and flavorful.
Every time my friend comes into town. This is our lunch go to spot. It’s been a while since we’ve been here. But they’ve expanded their dinning area which is nice and doesn’t feel cramped. On this visit I ordered the “puffy” verde beef combo and a Gulf Shrimp Taco ala cart. Anything off the menu is pretty good. But I would recommend at least try any one of the puffy tacos.
