An award winning taco spot in the middle of a trendy ally, what more could you want! We had the Angry Brid and Uncle Al tacos. The street taco portions are generous and the flavors are so balanced, you can taste every ingredient. All of those items feel really rare. The corn tortillas were great, but mine did break under the load of the fillings. Be careful when handling or it can be a mess. The restaurant itself is high energy and has a really fun decor. A great spot and it comes highly recommended.

Not your typical taco, for sure. Different in a GREAT way! First time here, I tried the Jimmy Churri & the G.O.A.T with caritas. Awesome flavor and the meat was perfect. Highly recommended. Definitely not your grandma's taco joint! 😂 I will be back!

Not a typical Mexican taco shop. ROCTACO serves a variety of fusion food tacos with inspiration from many different cuisines. I was apprehensive initially given the price point but it ended up being worth it. If I wanted just a regular taco, I could grill up some steak at home or go to one of the many Mexican joints across downtown. Instead I felt each taco was much more interesting with great flavor profiles. I tried the K-POP bulgolgi, Holy Kalbi beef, K.C. Pig and Uncle AL pork tacos. Favorite was probably the Kalbi followed by the K.C. pig. If I had the KPOP again, I would probably get it with extra meat, the egg kinda masked the other flavors. Make sure to try the house made Serrano hot sauce by the fountain machine, it's a hearty heat but not overpowering! Honestly might ask to bu

It's definitely an acquired taste and a one-time visit for us. The food reminds me of Chipotle. This is an Americanized Mexican food not your traditional Taqueria, so don'texpect tacos alpastor with an amazing salsa taquera lol. The menu is not easy to follow or understand (it's super busy) oh and be ready to get neck pain because the menu is way above the oder window and the space is small. The rice has a lime flavor that I didn't like. The meat is good--tender and juicy--but the sauces they use are an acquired taste. I like the carne asada. Not a fan of chimichurri. They grill cheese on the tortillas--this is good and definitely adds flavor. IF we go back I will ask for no sauce to the carne asada. I tried one chimichurri taco and a carne asada taco. My wife had the carne asada burrito--

So I tried this place for the first time today and I was very impressed. One word flavor!!!!!! Sadly downtown it's kind of hard to find if you don't know where it is. It's by the liquor store!! I got the food within about 2 minutes at 1:30. I had the Jimmy Churri, rude bull and the al pastor tacos. The flavors are wild. They don't have a huge selection, but it's good enough that you can eat there probably most of the time. Yes these are not like the real deal tacos but they are executed very well. The corn tortillas were cooked correctly, not dry and actually tasted good by themselves. All the ingredients were quality a fresh. The lime juice popped, the al pastor was good, tender and deep flavor. The beef was very good, not dry at all. Even though I had three different things they w
