Torchey’s Tacos did its thing for me and bae.. Our first reconnect spot after traveling, and honestly… the vibes were right. ❤️🌮 Jackie was super kind and helpful, and those Valentine’s Day decorations? Absolutely the cutest… soft, fun, and perfect for the moment. He ordered the chicken fajita tacos and The Democrat… and let’s just say he demolished them in about 2.5 seconds, so I’m going to assume they were VERY good. 😂 Good food, good energy, and a sweet little reconnect moment!! Safe to say we’ll definitely be back.

You know exactly what you are getting when you walk up, and the food and experience do not disappoint. Grabbed breakfast tacos to go here as well and the group was all very happy with everything that was ordered. Bacon egg and cheese tacos were great. Will definitely be back for quick and easy tacos.

Quick service-not busy on a Sunday afternoon. Baja shrimp taco just too wet. Very tasty though. Pork, beef tacos very good. Green chile queso and chips- half size is enough for two if ordering other food. Yummy

First time trying Torchy's and I must say I was not disappointed! The self-service kiosks are pretty standard and the professional was very streamlined and quick. The food is pretty large in portion size so definitely recommend taking each entree as it comes, and not ordering too much at the beginning. Will definitely come back to Torchy's when traveling through this area!

As a tourist- I never heard about this place, and I am not sure why! It was so delicious! I wouldn’t say its authentic but if you were craving good tacos, this is a great place! PS make it trashy!

So good! We loved the democrat taco and breakfast burrito.

Ain't as cool as it was, when they were just a food truck - but their tacos are out of this world. Living in Europe now, I sure miss my almost daily dose (obviously not just Torchy's). Try the Trailer Park Trashy or the hidden from menu, secret Matador. A lunch or dinner will set you back around $20 a person but it sure is like a little vacation. Damn Good.

Michelle is a freaking SAINT. She saved my time and energy after a really frustrating online experience. She was so sweet so kind and handled everything, sent me a copy of the order everything. I can’t begin to express how she saved my rear for this huge catering order for work. She deserves a bonus. Flowers. Raise. A day off whatever she wants. 10/10 Michelle is THE BEST.

Delicious elevated 'fast food style' tacos! They have some amazing flavour combinations and also have some tasty sides too (their variety of queso flavours were very unique and flavourful). The seating area is a cool vibe but can definitely get busy!

Absolutely loved Torchy’s Tacos in Austin TX. Yum yum We heard the queso was amazing and it was! The outdoor seating was awesome and the space was clean. Such a good vibe! Loved that they had cooler drinks in addition to the fountain sodas. Had to grab a Liquid Death to top off the best taco!

I visited this location for the first time the other day. I tried the Taco of the Month, which was The Ronin. It was very tasty. The wait wasn't too long. The restaurant was very clean and was nice and airy, with a lot of natural light, due to having many windows. Service was good. I ate indoors, but the outdoor patio looked really nice as well. Good place to grab a bite. 🌮

Solid choice for fast food tacos. I ordered the democrat taco (barbacoa, avocado, cotija, onion, cilantro) and it was tasty. Chips and queso were good too. Food came out quickly after we ordered. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. There’s a secret menu online with a few extra options so make sure to check that out as well.

Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had, and the service was impeccable. Laurel helped ensure my tacos didn’t light my mouth on fire, and she even checked in when they came out.

On a road trip from CA and are super excited for Torchy’s Tacos! Michelle was super helpful when we were trying to figure out which tacos 🌮 to get! Even told us about the Secret Menu! Super solid choices were made. Best dinner to have on our last full day in Austin! Thanksb

My son just moved to Austin and we discovered this gem. The food was delicious and the lady at the counter was a sweetheart. Who new Texmex was this good. Came a second time to try new tacos and to take some pics this time.

Been going to Torchy’s for years. It’s usually consistent and pretty good. Most recently, however, the quality was disappointing. My family and I agreed that the food was below the usual standards and was not so appetizing or tasty. Recently, Torchy’s also switched to self-serve kiosks instead of a staffed register at this location. I rarely see employees at the register, and it can be confusing to deal with the kiosks. As I said, this place is usually pretty good, but apparently sometimes they miss the mark.

The apps were all great! We enjoyed the guac, queso, corn. The menu is all a great value as the tacos are huge. Our reviews were mixed on them - the shrimp taco and Democrat were both great. I found the Trailer Park a bit salty (but what was I expecting with those ingredients?) This place is a "more is more" type of place, if that's your jam. We shared bites of the enormous cookie for dessert, it was good.

Good place if you need a quick bite. The tipsy chick and fried avocado tacos were very good. We got a trailer park ( make it trashy), and the crossroads was just ok. However the republican was weird and awkward to eat. Didn't pair well together. The street corn as a side was pretty good also.

Decent tacos, better than average queso, needs a sauce bar.

Torchy's, you’ve been breaking my heart for years now with these room-temp tacos :( Please warm the food! This is at every location. I don’t get it. I was between two and three stars but these tacos are good if only they were served hot.

If it was hard to figure this out whether I family of sex because everything is like per item on the menu, there’s no combinations or meals, so that was a little bit hard for us can make things pricey too, but I have to say for the price of like the shrimp taco that we got two of them did fill me up very well I just wanna preferred maybe some rice or some corn. We did get a corn in a cup the portion was small for like 4 bucks it was it was actually pretty small so you know that’s why I gave it like three stars on the food. Food was fresh food was good. Sauces were not as hot and spicy as I would like them, but overall the atmosphere in a place was good. Service was really good. Very patient and helpful

Way overrated. I got a Brushfire and a Matador. There were some gristle pieces in the chicken which made it pretty unpleasant. They were pretty generous with the mango but a bit heavy handed with the sour cream, so it was kind of unbalanced and somehow also boring. The Diablo sauce is nice and spicy but had a weird aftertaste. The Matador (from secret menu) was better. I wish the avocado had been sliced thinly instead of one big wedge. The red onions were pretty mild as far as a pickled onion goes, I'd have preferred a sharper flavor against the richness of the meat. Overall, boring experience that required way too many napkins to eat.

They installed these new kiosks to order. So not only does it feel way less personable but the ordering system is extremely buggy, so it takes 2x longer to place an order. Torchy’s has never had the best food but they were fun and local feeling. Now it feels impersonal and corporate. I can’t see the point, somebody help me understand why Torchy’s exists
