Used to live near the one in round rock. It was my favorite guacamole and queso dip

Their tortillas suck, therefore their tacos suck.

This is why you always opt for the corn tortilla.

The Tokyo Drifter is one of the best hybrid tacos ever.

And don't anyone give me grief about it.. I grew up in South Texas. I know Tex Mex. The Drifter ain't Tex Mex so don't start comparing it to barbacoa.


My issue with Torchy's is that if you order a barbacoa taco, you shouldn't have to specify corn tortilla. That's a given. It's like going to a burger joint and having to tell them mustard only, no mayo, no ketchup.

or like if you walk into a barber they should know you are only there for a beard trim and neck shave.

I love Torchy's Tacos. Their queso used to be awesome. It's been awhile since I've been there. That 900 mile drive is a bit too far for me these days.

I think they have their tortillas paired pretty well with the fillings. The problem is that their flour tortillas are lacking. Good for me I prefer corn anyway.

One of my other favorites is the Matador off the secret menu,

Unless it's a ghetto place on the west or south side, it's not Mexican food.

For me, it's both.

Perfect dog is mustard, onions, and kraut.

Nope. They use Maine Root sodas.

That being said, Torchy's isn't Mexican food
The one in College Station dropped Maine sodas and is now Coca Cola.

I'm done with Torchy's!! About 2 to 3 months ago they took the Republican off the menu and kept the Donkey item on the menu. Austin based company going to keep Austin Weird and Liberal as hell!!

So if you were actually paying attention as to why they did that, it was a supply issue.

But go ahead and throw your faux tantrum, sock

Website shows the Republican is still on the menu.

But who goes to Torchy's for a sausage wrap anyways? You go for the queso.

As long as they don't take the Crossroads off the menu, I'll keep going back.

I would say they need to add an al pastor option, but given that they can't make a flour tortilla right, I'm sure they'd just screw it up.

Really ? Then perhaps the Ace of Spades is as well.

Ace of Spades is still gone

They brought the Republican back when people thought they were making a political statement by taking it off

Chapie,

Shows how gullible you are to fall for the supply thing. Go ahead and stay under your rock or join Biden in his hiding spot.

Torchy's was started as a taco truck in Austin, by a white guy, if that tells you anything.

Couldn't be said any better than this.
why would you go to a chain taco place in san antonio


Is this a serious question? You must not live in San Antonio because it's commonly known that the Mexican food here is complete and utter garbage. You are better off with Taco Cabana or Torchy's than 99% of the local options, especially for breakfast tacos.
