The owner actually served us. Took our order, brought us the food, and followed up to make sure we enjoyed it. He was a great guy and super down to earth. We had 5 different tacos between us, beans, and a beet salad. Everything was absolutely phenomenal! Fresh, distinctive flavors and flavorful without being too heavy. We loved the vibe and the fact that it was a cozy little underground space. If you're considering it right now...go!
Very nice place! Both meat and vegetarian tacos are really good, I really liked the crunchy saucy tofu. The food was cooked quickly. Since the restaurants is in a basement, the vibe is a little cold, but the food is worth it. Also I didn’t know you could pick different tacos to order in trio, I will come back to try other vegetarian options!
I most enjoyed the oyster mushroom taco and tofu taco. Friends recommend that I try this place for tacos, especially because they have diverse vegetarian options. I ordered the Chickpea, tofu, and oyster mushroom as a trio. Initially, I most liked the tofu taco because it had a great variation of textures, crispy tofu, soft tortilla, creamy sauce, etc. But, then the oyster mushroom grew on me. It was hard to get a distinct bite that didn't pull additional mushrooms out of the taco, but the flavor was great. I tried the Chickpea taco and wouldn't order it again. It was just okay and not as memorable as the tofu or mushroom tacos. The atmosphere is cozy and the vibes are good. Definitely a whole in-the-wall type of eatery, but with food that you'd come back for.
This little hole-in-the-wall spot proves, once again, that the best food often comes from the most unassuming places. The tacos were outstanding! I tried the trio— tofu, coconut shrimp, and fish — and each one was bursting with flavor. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting them to be that good, but they blew me away. Highly recommend!
We visited Tiki Taco because of the good Google reviews. First of all: the food is really good. We had extremely good tacos, a large portion of chicken wings and a vegetarian poke. Unfortunately, the ambience is not really great. The restaurant is located in the basement, accessible via a small staircase. It only has a few seats and no toilet. Our table (the only one for more than two people) was unfortunately very sticky, we had to clean it first.
