Solid, fast-casual tacos with standout green salsa and friendly counter service, but inconsistency, small portions, and occasional service hiccups mean experiences vary.
Taco Pros delivers solid casual Mexican-American fare with standout green salsa and reliable tacos that keep regulars returning, but inconsistent execution—particularly the new chicken recipe and variable portions—prevents a higher grade. Fast counter service and convenient patio seating make it a practical neighborhood stop rather than a destination, landing it squarely in the grade C+ range for everyday casual dining.
This Taylor Street outpost runs on fast-casual speed with counter ordering, a clean, bright room, and a small patio where the lunch crowd rotates through. Service skews friendly if brisk, and more than a few diners call out the zippy green salsa as the thing that keeps them coming back. One reviewer summed it up: "The tacos hit the spot and my order came out fast." The cooking leans everyday Mexican-American comfort: tacos, burritos, bowls, and tortas with a choice of meats and either American or Mexican topping styles. Expect solid asada and barbacoa when they are on, but the new chicken recipe splits opinion and several diners needed salsa to wake things up. Portions can feel mixed—generous nachos for some, but a small burrito for the price for others—so value depends on what you order. For families, this is a practical stop. There is a kids meal (taco or quesadilla) and plenty of friendly choices like cheese quesadillas, fries, and churros. If your crew prefers classic taqueria flavors from 26th Street, set expectations accordingly; if they just want simple tacos and chips after school or before a game, this fits the bill.
