I love taco mamacita! Such a fun atmosphere and such great food!! So delicious. The queso is my favorite!

Enjoyed some queso on the patio while people watching! The food was great! The atmosphere was fun and casual. Our server, Stephanie, was GREAT!!!

This is a fun Mexican restaurant that is a must try for out of town guests. The atmosphere is casual, colorful and fun. The food is not your traditional Mexican but tacos with a twist and they are all delicious. Their drinks are also tasty, my personal favorite is the Elvez. Their service is very quick and efficient as well. The only downside is if you want chips and salsa or queso you have to pay for it as an appetizer.

They have great seasonal drinks, and their appetizer platter is so good! My favorite taco is the Taco Royale, but they have great vegetarian options as well. I always go for the Tortilla Soup. It's fabulous.

The impeccable customer service is where this place really shines. I have a dairy allergy and the first time I ate here the manager came out to let me know they have a separate station for cooking for allergies to avoid any cross contamination. On a separate occasion a friend was doing a very strict no processed food challenge and again, management came to the table and spent a long time with her understanding her needs and helping her pick a meal. In all honesty, without the above and beyond service, this place is more like 3 stars.

The food is pretty health conscience, creative, and affordable. The execution and taste is a little above average. The decor is fun and "hip" and it's a nice environment for a relaxed dinner with friends or a casual date. It can be hard to get a table here during dinner hour sometimes and other times you can walk right in but that's most decent places in Nashville. When it's busy the inside gets a bit loud so I would recommend outside seating when it's warm enough.

Overall this place has wonderful service, good/affordable food, and a nice atmosphere.

Best margarita in town!! Thy also have delicious tacos. Their tacos are original recipes, not just the run-of-the-mill taco!

Some people claim that heaven contains angels, clouds, and harps. While I have no opposition to any of those things, it is my hope that heaven will also contain a fantastic patio, margaritas, and tacos. Just in case it does not, I plan on taking full living advantage of the fact that Taco Mamacita offers all three (no death required!).

Taco Mamacita is one of my favorite hang-out places once the weather hits tolerable outdoor dining temperatures. Their patio is lovely and shaded, so even when the sun hits its most delightfully brutal Southern stride, I can eat outside without fear of an "Irish tan." Though their drinks are a little light on the alcohol, the atmosphere more than makes up for potentially not being drunk.

Now on to the food. I have never had a bad food experience at Taco Mamacita. Let's start with the basics: tacos. But a taco can be so much more than basic, and the Mamacita does everything possible to ensure that you are aware of just how non-basic tacos can be. Go for their $8.95 deal and get two tacos from their diverse selection, plus a side. Highly recommended are the Korean pork tacos and the royal taco grande. Haven't found that the Caribbean jerk tacos were my favorites, but that may just be a matter of taste.

If you are not in the mood for tacos, or on some terrible low-carb diet, the next stop on the menu is the Peruvian chicken, which is possibly the most moist, tender chicken I have ever encountered. If you can tear your eyes away from the taco menu, this is also a highly recommended choice.

Moral of the story: If you are looking for harps, clouds, and other angelic totems, Taco Mamacita is probably not going to work for you. If you are fine with margaritas, moist chicken, and a damn fine patio, stop on in.

Delicious!!!! Love their nachos! Such a fun little spot! They also have a really great patio! But honestly in the summer hours because they get packed!
