Tacos Essen in Essen

The taste of the food was average, lukewarm and very expensive. Interior chic, a little squashed. Music too loud and inappropriate like in most restaurants. Service was good, nice and accommodating.

Today again at Tacos... another cool evening🍹🍹... delicious food... delicious cocktails and great service..👍👍 TOP crew .... running... 👍 try it out.... Current update as of 3/10/25.... I went to Tacos again today Eating.... the spare ribs were top notch... beautifully cross baked and very tender... falling off the bone... delicious... simply a must...😋😋 and a delicious zombie...🍹👍👍 .. again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Food was very tasty and the service was perfect all around. A large cocktail selection, there is definitely something for everyone 🤗

The atmosphere was nice and rustic and totally cozy. Service was very nice and orders were taken quickly. We were very disappointed with the food. Had 2 burgers and 1 wrap. The burger bun was very dark and the taste of the burger wasn't great. Same thing with the wrap - the chicken felt like it had no seasoning. The fries were very tasty. But we didn't think the price was appropriate for the quality. We also ordered a “6 pack” of beer in a bucket… almost 17 euros for 6x 0.33 ml bottles is absolutely not justified. Unfortunately the beautiful Heineken bucket was not included in this price 😒…. However, the cocktails were great - the price was absolutely right and they tasted great😊 We would come back for the cocktails, the friendly service and the nice atmosphere - we would just skip the food next time :) You could eat it - true to the motto “ Hunger pushes it in”, but that was it, unfortunately it was quite bland for our taste

Very good food. Price-performance ratio top. Cocktails, extensive selection including alcohol-free. I can only recommend it. Especially the spare ribs. The meat fell off the bones like that.

Today we ate and drank in this restaurant, the cocktails were mediocre at best, even with extra leaf there are much better ones and the food was an indictment. The chili con carne was neither spicy nor had much flavor, it was very bland, the Takko was cold inside, not lukewarm but cold The salad didn't even have the quality of a french fry, the corn on the cob was just grilled, no butter, nothing and the so-called enchilada had a slight smell of cheese at first and then just of fat in the dough The burrito with grilled vegetables tasted like almost nothing and the meat was too tough. At 65 € the visit was also extremely expensive. The staff was very good and arranged and nice, but that doesn't make up for the bad food and cocktails if I look back on this visit If I had had to pay for the service, I would have given the staff €15 and asked for money for the food, which was unreasonable, especially for this price short note and conclusion half of the Lieferando comments are from another restaurant if you look at the address you can understand that

The atmosphere is calm, but the food is not good at all

Food and cocktails were super delicious. Service nice and quick. Ambiance is good but the toilets could be made a little friendlier and freed from dust and cobwebs.

Veggie Burrito could have used more vegetables, too much rice and therefore very dry. But Polo was really very good. Service 5/5 stars, cocktails really good too.

Unfortunately, the cocktail was almost inedible and the burger was definitely not worth the money. It's better to invest a few more euros and go somewhere else. It's a shame, actually the shop was once known for its good cocktails. But what was even worse was the service. The male service staff stood around quite a bit and had time to chat. The only female service worker worked her ass off for this, was still friendly and constantly apologized because it took a little longer. The only male waitress who was at our table was unfriendly and visibly annoyed because we wanted to order something to drink. I don't have to have it all again. There are enough good alternatives for this.

The atmosphere is beautiful, calm. The food is delicious (the pizzas are great) I will be very happy to come back again and again!

actually very authentically Mexican. the food, the ambience and the music!

+ friendly staff + cozy atmosphere + delicious cocktails + delicious tacos + recommended enchiladas + Seating available outside + clean toilet + good value for money

The service was very nice and the food was delicious! Cocktails are bomb, especially Mango Tai. Highly recommended.

Nice waiters, food is okay, drinks selection is large but the prices go up, well furnished inside, having a drink there in the evening with friends is quite good

One of the best cocktail bars! So much choice for a good price. During our weekend trip to Essen we visited Tacos twice. We had jumbo cocktails, long drinks and tequila shots. Definitely recommended!

Great place to visit for some drinks with friends! The atmosphere is really nice and the decoration is very thoughtful. The food is apparently not that authentic, but tasty nonetheless!

Really good food and we had one person who cant have salt. This was no problem and they organized this. Brilliant place to eat

Is not a real Mexican restaurant , is more gourmet mix Mexican food what they offer , and all is in big portions so if u want a taco 1 is not possible . I didn't eat was not attractive the menu

The atmosphere in the restaurant is nice, but unfortunately the food wasn't convincing. I had a burrito, you can't go wrong with that. However, it was loveless, unused and filled with dry rice. I wouldn't credit the restaurant with authentic Mexican cuisine if it fails at the burrito.

Food is standard. Staff very nice.

Delicious, cozy, friendly. What more could you want?

Rarely have I eaten something so tasty and inexpensive and devoured too many cocktails

Good food (one dish perhaps could have been a little warmer), very friendly and quick service, delicious cocktail. So everything was great, we'd love to come back!

We always enjoy coming to Tacos. The cocktails are delicious and also super affordable during happy hour. The service is quick and friendly.

Quite ok, very drafty & the food wasn't really hot

Very nice restaurant, delicious food, very nice service. The cocktails are also impressive. Price-performance ratio is right 👍

We did some shopping in Essen and wanted to have something to eat. This was the fourth restaurant and there was just enough room to eat, the last table because we had not made a reservation. Friendly service and a very cozy tent and atmosphere. Garlic bread and taco chips with chicken for the course, very tasty. Main course Hamburger, tortillas and jambalaya. Everything was really delicious and flavorful. A fun day ending with a delicious dinner.

Really slow and disinterested service. High noise level. Can't comment on the food because an hour and a half later, does anyone still know when (or if) it will arrive.

We drove especially from Dortmund for the tacos🙏

Was over charged for my burger during happy hour!

We were on a weekend trip to Essen. In the evening we came across the restaurant. The waitresses are very kind and attentive. The atmosphere in the restaurant is also okay, just a bit too dark for our taste and a bit old. For food: we had cheeseburgers, the burger was very tasty, but the fries were very limp and not very seasoned.

The evening before last I was alone in the restaurant. The service was good. In my opinion it was a bit too dark but otherwise very pleasant and cozy. The food was very tasty. The burrito was a bit dry in taste but very good 👍. Price/performance is okay.

Very nice restaurant. Great, freshly prepared Mexican food. Very friendly, attentive staff. The cocktails are also highly recommended

Super nice, Comfortable atmosphere, very nice waiters and an incredibly great taste experience. Can only be recommended again 👍🏼

The cocktails are super cool, as is the fact that you can take some with you. The restaurant is beautifully designed , the food is delicious and the staff puts you in a good mood

Very tasty cocktails and nice service :)

Very good service, great cocktails, staff just great (especially the work clothes), the candles are beautifully decorated, Ashkan is simply a dream for every woman, would recommend everyone to visit this shop 🫶🏻😘🕯️ if I could I would give it more than just 5 Stars give up

Very cozy in the beer garden and the food and service were really good.

This is a nice shop. Starter very tasty, wheat beer non-alcoholic

Super laden super personal Mega hilfreich beim Essen aussuchen , besser geht’s nicht Mega freundlich Mit freundlichen Grüßen

The ambience and service are excellent. The food there is very tasty and I can only recommend the dessert.

Average store. If you have no talent for recognizing taste and don't have developed taste buds, you can eat well here. It's bland and boring, and if you're lucky, the nachos arrive when they're still a little warm around the edges. The store shines with its alcohol, which you really need to deal with all the disappointments. The service was also rather lackluster and seemed like a mental challenge for the waiter. After all, I really liked the ambience. If you look closely, you could really think you were sitting in a run-down saloon from 1875, except the tequila probably tasted much better back then. If you want quality, I wouldn't recommend this shop but one of the other numerous bars in the city center.

The tacos are the tastiest around! Really flawless, super tasty, I can indulge myself. And the nachos with lots of dips. I have rarely eaten something so delicious... your sour cream, oh my god... delicious 🤩😍 The cocktails are good, nothing really special, but also very, very tasty - I can only judge the non-alcoholic ones :) But it's worth it for the food! Cozy atmosphere, maybe a bit noisy if you stop by at the end of the day and it's full :) It's worth calling, but we've still barely managed to get a seat, even spontaneously. Staff really nice and funny - we love this store! It's been our regular place since it was discovered a year ago :D

Get cold fries. The note to the waiter was of no interest.

Best cocktail bar in NRW. Good prices, good deals, good food and good service. We have been regular guests for years and very quickly took to the conditions. The service was always friendly, courteous and never left any wish unfulfilled. In terms of price-performance ratio, there is no better bar/restaurant in Essen and North Rhine-Westphalia. 100% recommended and also affordable for students. Gladly again

Nice, cozy bar in Tex-Mex style with typical Tex-Mex cuisine and a well-stocked cocktail menu. The cocktails were all excellent. The selection of dishes is based on typical Tex-Mex cuisine. The selection is sufficient and well coordinated. I found the quality of the food to be okay, rather mediocre and aimed at quick, simple cuisine. The portions are sufficiently large. All in all, a visit is recommended. It is best to park in the Central Parking Garage under Kennedyplatz.

Best shop in NRW! Cocktails taste good! Food is good! Just baba!

Tacos ist der beste Laden, den Essen zu bieten hat. Das Essen schmeckt und die Cocktails sind ein Gaumenschmaus. Das Personal ist der hammer. Nett, freundlich, aufmerksam. Ein Laden, den wir gerne alle paar Wochen besuchen!

I visited this taco restaurant in Essen and was completely satisfied. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, perfect for a relaxed dinner. The tacos and burritos are simply sensational – fresh, spicy and rich in flavor. The service is friendly and efficient. A must for all taco and burrito lovers in town.

We were served very nicely. The taste is quite ok

Zupa! Everything is fine! Everything delicious!

By far the best shop in downtown Essen. Great service (my special thanks go to Ashkan - a really great, nice, courteous young man!!!) - food is always fresh and delicious & the cocktails will blow your socks off! Simply a feel-good atmosphere that you can't find anywhere else...Thank you for the unforgettable evenings!!!!!

Great atmosphere, nice staff and incredibly delicious food, especially the meat. It's just not the fried portions. Overall a 9/10

Unfortunately the food was just bad. The vegetarian tacos were only filled with carrots and zucchini, everything seemed bland. The cocktails were good

I ordered a burger that was super juicy. The included fries also came out of the deep fryer fresh and crispy and therefore tasted even better. The waiters asked regularly, but not too intrusively, whether everything was OK, which I really appreciated. The ambience is Mexican Western style. Mexican food makes you even more happy. All in all highly recommended! 😁

The food is delicious, nice atmosphere, and the best waiters/waiters! Especially the waitress with the black long ponytail 10/10! Recommended

The waitress saw where you were sitting, unfortunately you weren't served and you could see that she was busy with her cell phone instead of taking care of the guests! Disrespectful

Super nice service. All drinks were top and arrived quickly. The location was a 10/10. The music selection is completely to my taste😍 I can only recommend it!!

Great and fast service Delicious food and pleasant atmosphere Recommended! :)

We were disappointed with our visit to the restaurant. The waitress was busy with her cell phone and completely ignored us, so we left without being served. Very bad service.

Great location and ambience, great service, large portions and everything tasted great with delicious happy hour cocktails

Awesome shop! No more words needed...

A great shop. Cozy atmosphere and very tasty food. Conditions always nice and accommodating, can recommend this bar to everyone.

Best location in Essen! Highly recommended, especially all the staff are super friendly and nice (especially Fev!)😉

Has become our new favorite spot! The service is always good and all the staff are very open and accommodating, especially Yev!

Everything perfect!!! Service and food, would love to come back!

One of the best places for Mexican and American food in Essen.

I love it here, the ambience and conditions are great 🫶🏼🫶🏼 love it

A popular restaurant in the heart of Essen. The food is good but unfortunately also prepared with conventional products. I would have expected more, especially with the sauces. The meat is already prepared but it tastes good and is fresh. The drinks are very good and fresh. The cocktails are very tasty and are also on offer during happy hour from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The waitresses are very friendly and attentive. Wishes are fulfilled immediately if possible. The ambience is getting old but the place is well maintained and clean. The toilets are also very clean. Conclusion: If you don't expect 5☆ cuisine but want good and inexpensive food and drink in the heart of Essen, then Tacos is the right place for you.

Food super tasty, staff always friendly. Nice atmosphere, highly recommended.

Very tasty food, super good cocktails and a great ambience. Only recommended!

Truly the coolest and best shop in Essen! Great atmosphere, great local people, food and cocktails very good. We will be back!

The store is just great! Marc best man

Really nice here and great food, great service and good happy hour! Highly recommended ❤️

I love it here!! The food is amazing and the service is outstanding. I just love this place for my monthly get together ♥️

Klasse Restaurant, gutes Essen und top Service! Waren die letzten Wochen mehrmals hier und war immer super. Wir kommen wieder

The restaurant has a nice Mexican decor and the food is very tasty. Cotails invite you to linger.

The ambience and furnishings are very harmonious and take up the theme of Mexico, Texas and the Wild West very nicely. The service was friendly, competent and quick. The cocktails were great too! The food was served quickly, hot, and nicely. The food was also very tasty in terms of taste. The price was reasonable for the overall package. All in all great! We would love to go here again.

Nice service, cool atmosphere, delicious food, highly recommended

Very tasty, you can eat everything👍👍😋 And cocktails happy hour 🍹perfect, we'll always come back

The service is really courteous and very friendly. The food was very tasty, especially the cheeseburger was excellent. I can really only recommend the food.

Great shop, I felt totally at home there, delicious cocktails, nice service, I never had to wait long for my drink, the waiters were very proactive and offered me something new to drink quite quickly. All in all I give the store a 10/10. I have rarely been so convinced of an entire package. Greetings go out to the owner, you really convinced me and it's difficult 👍

Authentic taste, friendly staff, and best vibes in evening

The food was very tasty and the quantity was commensurate with the price. There is an offer for every day. Mondays, for example, are very good for a cocktail evening. The service is also super friendly and regularly asks if everything is ok. I can definitely recommend the restaurant for food and cocktails.

Nice vibe, nice service, relaxed bar in general. Drinks are solid but not exceptional, therefore only 4/5. Still highly recommended for a relaxing evening.

One of the best place to have Mexican food

I liked the atmosphere! Cozy and interesting! Services were very friendly and really quick. However, it was still very empty. Food was delicious and value for money was given. Toilets are tiny but clean. Toilets are absolutely not barrier-free. You can try it out.

It's not the best when it comes to tacos, but the staff is kind and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Student spot, chill and noice. Toilets good as well

The waiter was good and spoke English also.For drinks and snacks with friends a good place to hang out.The only area which needs improvement is food.I ordered Qasadillas and they were cold.

We've been there a few times. Always received a friendly welcome. Even if you want a table on a Saturday evening without a reservation, every effort will be made to solve the problem. So the service staff are really great. The ambience of the store is really great. Only the toilets could probably use a new coat of paint. The food is really very tasty. Unfortunately the tacos are sometimes a bit soggy and some parts of the food are only lukewarm but overall what you get there is fine. As I said, the food there is really great. The large selection of cocktails is also recommended. Overall, a great bar with good food that invites you to linger with friends.

I haven't read anything, but it should be a 4.7 and not a 4.2 in terms of reviews. Price performance super fair, service Vince goes out of his way to improve the rating ;) Food comes slowly, everything else comes super fast. Thank you for the great hospitality, the delicious food and the delicious cocktails.

Very nice restaurant! The service staff was very friendly. The food was great 👍 Absolutely fair prices. Will be happy to come back.

Friendly staff, delicious food, delicious drinks and just a very good atmosphere there. Been there twice so far and it won't be the last time!

Very cozy Mexican style bar. You can really endure it here and the cocktails were very tasty and perfectly mixed. Happy hour seems to be standard here, so the drinks are really cheap! The food looked great and was really tasty. Everyone has had enough. Nice atmosphere and friendly service Update January 23, 2024 Since Corona, prices have increased - like everywhere else. Happy hour is Monday through Thursday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Very large selection of cocktails - with and without alcohol. Mexican style menu plus burger menu. The burgers including fries are under 10 euros, otherwise enchiladas, fajitas, quesadillas, tortillas, nachos, also vegetarian. The atmosphere is very cozy and the service is really nice. Unfortunately the food was just mediocre, that's a real shame!!! By the way, dogs are allowed in here. 😃

Sind spontan rein, super freundlicher Service und tolles Essen!

Sehr schön dekorieren, sehr leckerer cocktail 🍸.

Sehr leckeres Essen, super Cocktails, schönes Ambiente und sehr nette Bedienungen also unbedingt weiterzuempfehlen. Hat auch nichts mehr mit den Rezensionen von vor einigen Jahren zu tun.

Leider ist es nicht mehr das, was es mal war. Nämlich kein mexicanisches Restaurant. Das Jasminreis mit Möhren und Brokkoli typisch mexikanisch ist , ist mir neu. Die Tortillawraps waren kalt, der neue Sourcream Dip hatte was von Zaziki. Der Fleischanteil bei der Fajita- Platte ist auch deutlich geschrumpft. Eigentlich war es eher eine Paprika - Zwiebel Platte. Schade, wir sind immer gerne gekommen. Jetzt müssen wir uns einen anderen Mexikaner suchen.
