What User likes about Snap Taco (pacific Ave):
We were very happy with our first visit! Tacos are expensive and are made with good ingredients. They are a little underseasoned for my taste, but I know I like exceptionally fat and spicy dishes, so I am sure that their flavors appeal to a wider amount. They are also more child-friendly! The Good Fortune Pork taco was the only one that seemed to be filled. All the others were generous with the help of meat. They off... View all feedback. What Amy D doesn't like about Snap Taco (pacific Ave):
This restaurant is not a good choice. The decorations are unusual and the prices are high considering there is no table service. I ordered a mushroom taco which was overloaded with dried, overly salty refried mushrooms - it should be a part of the dish, not the whole thing. There was no salsa or sour cream to balance out the saltiness. I would recommend avoiding Snap Tacos and going to a traditional taqueria instead.... View all feedback.

This place looks really unique at first, but overall, it's very rundown and the food is very unsatisfying. I found it hard to finish my meal

The service was amazing and the tacos were incredible. Our server even gave us a complimentary drink. Definitely try the 10 taco special!

Very average. Chips, guac, black beans were under seasoned. Ceviche was tough. A little concerned about the cleanliness of the establishment. Will not return.

Snap Taco seems to struggle with overcomplicating their vegetarian taco offerings, resulting in disappointing dishes like the Sweet Potato and Mushroom Tacos. Although the atmosphere is pleasant and the staff friendly, the bizarre bathroom decor and lack of professionalism from some employees detract from the overall dining experience. On the other hand, positive aspects include a variety of seating options, good prices, and well-labeled gluten-free menu items. Despite some missteps, Snap Taco has potential to improve and become a more appealing dining option with adjustments to their menu and service.
