This is probably the best Tex Mex around here. Taco King and Express Soft Taco isn't up to par with Taco Place. I don't know if their food is authentic Mexican food. What I do know is that if you want shareable delicious portions at a cheap price, look no further. I ordered their burritos a couple of times and find them to be quite filling and delicious. Most places are cheap with meat portions, but not Taco Place. I also had their black bean taco and found the black beans creamy and tasty. The Tostada Salads are very crispy. If you order by phone and come pick it up, the chef won't put the fillings inside until you are ready to pick up your food. He does this so that the filling doesn't make the crispy shell soggy while you are on your way to pick up the food.
Place is clean and is more suited for take out than dine in. Finding parking nearby can be a challenge.
-1 star because they are so cheap when giving salsa and sour cream. Tostada salads come with thousand island dressing, which isn't a great complement.
A man (or woman, for that matter) is nothing without their dependable neighborhood takeout place but when I want something different than the usual Chinese food, this casual, unpretentious Tex-Mex place fits the bill. Forget the fact that they're actually run by Chinese owners and that the only effort toward ethnic authenticity in this place are the two sombreros and the painting of a flamenco dancer hanging on the wall. You don't come here for cultural studies; you come when you want fast, cheap food. I've never waited more than five minutes for my order, and that's even with the time it takes to grind out the flour tortillas, which are made fresh to order.
The menu seems to cover all of the appropriate Mexican food cravings – tacos, burritos, quesadillas, nachos, over-rice dishes, and tostada salads. Special combo meals, which start at around $7, include at least one protein, 2 fresh tortillas, rice, your choice of beans, lettuce, tomato, salsa, and sour cream. During my last visit, I ordered the mixed vegetable combo and found it fine for a meal, if a little bland. The 'vegetable mix' was a slightly over-steamed and under-salted variety of broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and mushrooms, but with the addition of salsa and seasoned yellow rice, it was more than decent. My meat-eating fiancé found his entrees far more interesting, so it would seem that the vegetarian options (which are denoted on the menu with a red star) have almost been added as an afterthought. Still, we've been more than happy with the prices and the speed with which the food comes out. Another surprising perk is the television mounted in the eatery, so that dining in amongst the humble and faux Mexican décor doesn't seem nearly as unthinkable a prospect.
