Guaco Taco
3.5 / 5 (652 reviews)

Description

Guaco Taco delivers a mix of standout and uneven experiences. Its shrimp and fish tacos, fresh crispy tortillas, generous gluten-free menu and acclaimed margaritas draw regulars, while attentive bartenders and a shaded, mistered patio add to the appeal. Service and portion consistency can waver, sauces and coleslaw are sometimes sparing, and chips and utensils feel cheap. Delivery preserves crunch, but some dishes underperform for the price. Overall, a clean, family-friendly Austin spot with strong drinks and GF options, best approached with tempered expectations.

Very poor service. Original taco was same like you get at Dairy Queen. Shrimp taco was good. Some other reviews said regulars had taken over. It 's true. I would have left but I got there real early. There was only 3 customers.

First time dining at Guaco Taco and my family loved it. I had the cauli-quesadilla and it was great! My gf had the fried shrimp and raved about it. Will be going back again to take pictures of the plates!

After our first time visiting last night, we have decided this is already one of our favorite places! The bartender, Haiven, is extremely attentive and friendly. It's very obvious she knows and cares about the organization a great deal. Will be returning at least once a week . Kuddos to excellent mixed drinks, friendly atmosphere and an extremely clean facility. 100% customer satisfaction.

I love their fish tacos. Or should I say I used to. For around $4 they used to give you a big piece of fish. Flounder. So tasty! But someone thought it was a good idea to cut that ONE piece into 3 tacos. No. That?s nuts. Inflation hasn?t gotten that bad.They have an awesome jalapeño ranch sauce but it is a fight to get enough sauce from them. They want you to eat 2 tacos persauce. And the coleslaw is also tasty. The same thing. It?s a battle to get it. This was my go to spot because I?m gluten free.I?m so sad upset.

Decent but nothing outstanding. Unless you like strong drinks. Wife says they make the strongest Capitan and coke ever and she likes em strong, so high praise indeed. Chips and queso were good but chips were mostly small pieces. Not busy at dinner time ona weekday. Shrimp taco was good if a little to much citrus flavoring shoestring style fries were really good. My wife enjoyedher quesadilla. Portions are not super large which honestly is refreshing. Large covered patio with some games.
