Taco Dirty St. Pete - St. Petersburg

I haven't been here in over 8 months. I came back because I remember the food being tasty. And it was ! The tacos were filled and yummy. They have kiosks where you can order your food. People are complaining about the kiosks but I actually prefer it I can take my time and look through the menu. You can still dine outside or take it to go.

Used to love this place until they went “contactless.” Now it takes longer to place an order on their electronic pad than to just walk up and tell them what I want (similar to chipotle) like it used to be. Prices have also increased and portions have gotten smaller. Better off and faster to just go to fresh kitchen next door. Great concept for the food hall if they didn’t make all of these terrible changes.

Every part of my experience at Taco Dirty was disappointing. Their juices and teas were so watered down and tasted like soap, really upsetting considering we paid almost $4. We waited over 20 min for a soggy burrito that had the insides spilling out and tacos that were overfilled with rice and 3 small dingy pieces of steak. Not to mention the $2 sauce cup of guac when i could get a way bigger (and probably more appetizing) portion at Chipotle. $30 down the drain. If you’re looking for a delicious taco place, turn around, this ain’t the one.

I came in on October 21 at 9:10pm to get some dinner. As i walked in everything inside was turn off. I was told by the staff that they were already close. Their sign outside clearly says open until 9:30pm. Its really upsetting because i work late every day and i was hopping to get a nice late dinner and i wasnt allow get anything to eat tonight. Its false advertising. If the restaurant is close early they should have a sign out saying they are closing early and explain why. Im super disappointed i will never come back again for dinner.

We used to love this place but it’s now a “virtual kitchen” only so you can only place an order through their website or Uber eats. Very confusing as you have customers standing around wondering how to order. The restaurant looks disheveled… I’m not sure what happened to this place? We did not realize it was “virtual kitchen” now so placed an order using Uber eats while we sat outside and waited. App said our food was ready but kitchen staff said it wasn’t so we needed to wait another 10+ minutes. All in all we were waiting over 25 minutes for the food to be ready and nobody at the counter communicates what’s going on.
