Tacofino Gastown Reviews

Consistently good tacos but I still don't understand why they don't serve burritos in the restaurant side. Might as well put up a wall in between.

Amazing food, not really the best service but it really doesn't matter when the food is that good.

Great service, great atmosphere, and delicious tacos. It's great being able to order them individually, and try out different things. Loved it!

Had the chorizo taco and wagyu taco, both terrific. Enjoyed the jalapeno marg too, though $11 seems pretty steep! Would recommend

Place seem nice and cute although a bit loud. Walked in and they said there was a 45 minute wait. My husband decided to put his name and number down anyways but we ended up getting it to go and eating it by the water. 10 minutes after we orderded, we got a text saying that there were seats ready. We decided to skip it since we already got it to go and wanted to sit by the water. Food got cold by the time we walked there but man was it ever so good! We both got the fish taco and chicken burrito and I m already thinking about having it again tomorrow. A little bit on the pricer side but 1000% worth it! Best tacos and burrito I ve had in my LIFE. Janis does not lie ;)

bad food .... in a nice atmosphere.... but i dont get it why people eat mexican food done by canadians ? it is to much sauce and the chicken i had smelled strange ////

Tasty tacos, fun environment, fast and efficient service. I would definitely be back for the fish tacos. Slightly overpriced.

Amazing food and drinks. Love the lamb taco. Definitely worth the money.

Drinks are awesome if ur into spicy...love the Watermelon and Jalapeno...and very few veggie tacos but good enough to hang out..

Pretty cool space, definitely a popular spot, almost no chance of a table but we got lucky. Fast service, tacos come out quick and are mighty tasty! Nice options of beers, not a bad choice if you have a hankering

Great restaurant in Gastown. Young crowd. Delicious Tacos and awesome alcohol drink choices.

BEST TACOS EVER!!! not a huge taco fan, but I was blown away by the authentic taste, great variety and cocktail selection.

Small place. Great food. Very busy especially around lunch but they do hustle to get your order out! Just wished they had more options

Food was nice!
Specially the lamb tacos!
Seevice was fast and nice!
Price was fair!
Lovely place !

Just OK. Taco shell is too thick and dry. In tofino it's a food truck, in vancouver it's an overpriced hipster restaurant - go figure.

Restaurant portion nice but a bit loud. Our favorite is to get takeout as the burritos are amazing.. and you get a bit more bang for the buck.

Recommend the fish taco, crispy chicken and wagyu beef steak taco

My only complaint that the food was so good I had to buy more. Not overly expensive. Fairly priced based on how good food is. Chicken taco is what i recommend.

I couldn t eat inside with my friend because I ordered a burrito at the front, even though they didn t warn me of that. I won t be going back.

Great service, excellent portion size and friendly staff. Food was marvellous, fantastic flavors and fresh ingredients. Will be back!

great casual place to grab yummy tacos and drinks, the vibe is very relaxed . I especially like the fish tacos, it s not the most authentic but I don t think it s trying to be.

My fiance and I love the food here, the taco's and nacho's especially!

Great Food, attentive servers, and the drinks are fabulous

Great place. It has a long wait, but the tacos are great! Try the fish taco, it's delicious.

Tastes good but the portion size is a little smaller than I'd like.

Tofino's favorite food truck's location in downtown Vancouver. Food is as good as in Tofino. Absolute must eat!

Ugh. I hate doing this. If you are a server.. hygiene is important. Yes some people have issues with their BO .. and not everyone practices good hygiene but it makes it difficult when you leave a noticable waft behind. More than a few people noticed.

Gentrified to the core, not able to order Burritos in the actual restaurant for no good reason. You're stuck with the restaurant menu, which consist of tiny tacos and tostadas, for the price of three tacos but you will only get one lol.

Amazing vibe, great service and amazing fish and chicken tacos. All the menus were QR codes you had to scan on your phone to further prevent covid which was a amazing idea. The best chicken tacos I've ever had. Everything else was very hit or miss. The pork, and the chorizo tacos were terrible. And the drinks were mediocre.

However I will definitely be coming back just for the fried chicken tacos alone.

The tacos are awesome, the service is lightning fast and they have a pretty decent choice of beers. Anytime my colleagues suggest Tacofino for lunch I just can't resist

Awesome food but some of the staff could bring a better vibe.

Food and restaurant facility are both amazing however the location is quite sketchy

I liked the original Tacofino and this one is good too.

ITS MY FAVOURITE.
Best nachos ever. Crispy chicken burrito from the burrito bar is MY FAVOURITE. Also great drinks and staff and tacos and everything.

This was a fun place to go to, didn't look like much on the outside but was a hip looking event in the inside. Our family of 6, including some picky young eaters (9 and 13) and my gluten free wife, all found things they could enjoy. Tacofino was on our list of things to do in Vancouver, and it didn't disappoint.

Nice place with good food and friendly service, but a bit overpriced for a taco restaurant.

The food was awesome and the ambiance of the place is very warm and welcominh

Tacofino is super chill vibes! Like the menu, take out has different options then done in so check both out! Had some happy hour the other day and I was very pleased. Service is excellent!

My partner and I just got 2 of the worst burritos I've ever had. Mine was very cold, the wrap was gummy and completely inedible. Also, they were both mostly comprised of lettuce or cabbage instead of anything of substance. It was horrible and I'll never go back, even though I live in the neighbourhood. Gringo down the street is much much better and cheaper too.

The food was great. The different tacos make for a unique experience for someone who's from Langley and Surrey. Only issue is the music is way too loud and feels more like a club without dancing than a restaurant at 10pm.

Everything was delicious, even my foreign friends liked it.

If you love tacos and a great place to socialize come here

Great casual atmosphere, great appetizers and tacos.

Get the nachos and burritos, the tacos are just too small and expensive!!!!

Fabulous taco's! Worth it to check out and dine in.

Had takeaway food ... And the Tacos were great. Freshly prepared and ingredients made fresh.

Definitely worth the visit ....

The Bar and Restaurant looks great as well but I'm the evenings long waits maybe best to make reservations before a visit

Chorizo Burrito was filling, not to spicy. Hot sauces were a nice complement. Fish taco was good. We did take out for the fireworks.

Awesome tacos! Good prices, friendly staff, great crowd. Thumbs up!

A lot of nachos but delicious! Both fish tacos and chicken tacos are delicious, but I recommend fish.

Oh man, this place is so much better than Taco Bell!

Fast service. But not a big fan of food. I have a feeling you don't get food like that in Mexico. Just seemed a bit pretentious for me as a whole.

Some of the best tacos in Vancouver. Fast, efficient and friendly service. This place gets busy (deservedly) but they always keep up.

A hidden Mexican treasure in downtown vancouver .... unreal atmosphere, amazing food, topped with a truly friendly service

Tried the whole menu over time and it's all satisfying... great beer taps as well, and don't ever miss trying their margaritas!!!

Don't expect actual Mexican cuisine....not even in the tacos. It was more of an upscale bar and grill place (like a Chili's). The food and drinks were overpriced and we had a lot better at other restaurants in the area. We ordered the nachos...which everyone raved about online. They featured "chorizo", which was nothing more than poorly seasoned hamburger meat (not real chorizo). The chips were not your traditional corn chips, but most likely fried flour tortillas...these weren't bad. The best part was the green salsa that comes separately. Overall they lacked flavor. We also ordered their wings...these were actually really good. They were seasoned well and the dipping sauce went well with them. The drinks were okay...but again, overpriced. If you are expecting real Mexican cuisine in Canada...this is NOT the place for you.

Fantastic tasty food! Always busy so get there early.

Litetally everything was delicious. Just pick any taco on the menu and you'll like it. Also, hands down the best nachos I've ever had!

Food is so damn good and the service always friendly

Extremely loud dining area made by the music and people. Nachos (the cheese) are on the salty side. Fish tacos were great though.

The taste is fun. Service is good.
I had a silly percussion coin ratericae fish. Get rid of erection.

Looking for mexican dine in.. we landed at this place.. I wanted burrito and my colleague wanted tacos.. We were surprised to know the place just serves tacos but no burritos for dine in. The server told us 'you can order burrito, stand out and eat but cannot dine in' i.e. one can order burritos for take away only but can have tacos for dine in.. decided to not eat because of such wierd policy..
Tacofino = No burritos dine in

Came in here with my whole bunch of people from work for takeout. They have great vegetarian and gluten free options. Delicious tacos for a great value! However, I would recommend the fish burrito. Thoroughly enjoyed, plus loved the music playing. Cheap prices and fast service, too! The downside is the parking and area around the place is not the best.

Have you EVER had a server order themselves a menu item in order to accommodate you?? Our server ordered himself wings in order to give us the the wing portion rather than the drums! The kitchen took both orders and separated them for us. The atmosphere, the music, the service was fantastic. But the food was beyond amazing. The server suggested a few of his favorites, we ordered them all and couldn't not decide which was the best. A little walk out of the main Gastown area is really worth it.

I consider myself VERY lucky to be walking distance to this place! I originally fell in love with the OG Tacofino in Tofino and thank the good lord this place exists close to my office haha. The staff is always friendly and accommodate my weirdo special order adding this and that to the chicken burrito. So good. It's a must!

Food was stellar. Service and drinks amazing as well. A must if you're in GasTown.

Really the best tacos and burritos I've ever had and I consider those some of my all time favorite foods.The fish burrito/taco are excellent, as is the crispy chicken taco.

To be honest I thought I was going to hate it but I decided to give it a chance. Once I tried the food.. it was like BAM!!! really good, friendly staff and clean. Would def go back again and again....

I've tried nearly every burrito on the menu and the Crispy Chicken burrito here is the best in my opinion. The chicken is always tender and juicy and always has a very nice crunch with the chicken skin. The burrito is loaded with toppings and fills you up completely. Its slightly pricey but a nice cheat lunch once in awhile.

The fish tacos are nice and light and the fish has a nice crunch to it along with a tender flaky inside.

There are several locations and all are outstanding and serve up some of the best taco's, burrito's and bowls in town. My favourite is the location 1050 West Pender a hidden gem, great happy hour and fantastic staff.

My fav place for tacos in the city. Nothing compares to the great flavours of these tacos! Been back many times and always get good service, good prices, and killer tacos. The nachos are also delicious and great to share, even better with the added chorizo sausage.
They also have a good beer list and cocktail menu with daily specials.

Yummmmm!!! Great service, really friendly staff. Chicken taco was DELICIOUS.

Cool vibe helpful staff. Pretty good tacos tho the veggie combinations were a bit out there!

Hands down best nachos I've ever had. Damn good fish tacos as well

This Taco fino is a must.. The service is outstanding from when you walk thru the door being greeter by the hostess to the excellent serving staff. The hostess Erin was superb and super accommodating.

Will be back next week!

Great food, good to share it, good atmosphere, uncomfortable seats. The waitress dropped by mistake a full glass of water on my and got absolutely soaking. As an apology she removed my orders from the bill. I thought it was a nice thing to do as I was pretty soaked and it was very cold outside.
