I love this restaurant and its tacos and salsas. However the volume inside is unbearable. I can only survive outside which is harder on a cold day. Turn down the volume!

The food and service were great! The queso and guac were fantastic. It was pretty dark which made ordering and eating tacos a bit difficult. Some lamps could have made the experience even better!

the fish tacos were the worst we've ever had. deep, deep, deep fried. other dishes may be ok but we came for the fish tacos and will not return unless a friend explicitly says a particular dish is worth trying. a bit disappointing as we were showing a tourist from australia around :( thanks Norm

Honestly, everything from the margarita to the tacos to the salsa, and especially the chips are sub par. You could close your eyes, spin around and find a WAY better Mexican restaurant on Valencia before coming here.

We’ve been loyal customers for years - even during Covid - but this was the worst service I’ve ever had at any restaurant. Sat us inside after making a reservation for outside and then asking twice in person to sit outside - no explanation, just led us to the table. Tacos came way before the guacamole and chips, had to remind the server about the soup, drinks took forever, showing up way after all the food, my son’s fresca never showed up then they brought us two and tried to charge for both, had to keep asking for chips and water to be refilled. Ignored, neglected, it was like they didn’t want us there. For $7.50 a taco, we expect to be treated with a basic minimum of respect.

We love Tacolicious. Great food, great ambiance. Love their patio and happy hour Margaritas. Kids plate is a great value. The only issue we have had is multiple servers who are just not in the mood. Barely saying hello, annoyed to bring over HH menu, disappearing for a bit long. We didn’t ask for anything extra or out of ordinary. I feel badly mentioning this as working in the service industry is not an easy task, but this particular restaurant has more disgruntled servers than not.

I was disappointed in Taco Tuesday tacos. The shells. Were so crumbly I had to eat them off a plate after they self destructed. The sangria was in a small glass and mostly ice. Tiny squares of apple thrown in. Very expensive as price is $17. I got happy hour price of $12 but not even worth that. Too many other good restaurants in the area to go back. Service was good!
