Dining in is a relaxing experience. The staff take your order in the front to take your order. Fresh chips and salsa bar is available for dine-in. Great selection of traditional dishes.

A quick take out for me, however the restaurant itself is always full with happy patrons. The vibe is cantina and does a great job of separating you from the outside shopping center. The food is delicious and always hits the spot. I tend to stick to the carne asada burrito and tacos but they offer much more. They staff recognizes me using their usual, and offer a great variety of salsa and chips. Definitely recommend for a good meal.

Soooo good! From Arizona and I'm picky about Mexican food but this place delivered! Will be going back!

We had an appointment in SLO that had been delayed and we were looking for a place close by for lunch. We had friends tell us this was a great Mexican restaurant. We were greeted by a very nice woman who answered all our questions about some of their items. We ended up ordering 2 orders of the Shrimp Soft Tacos. They were absolute delicious. They were generous with the shrimp and the salad on the shrimp was so yummy. Loved the dressing. Also came with really good beans and rice. We will definitely be returning and probably ordering the same thing.

Note: This review is strictly on their Crispy Potato Tacos, as that is all I have had from here. Not the most authentic Mexican food around, but man.....they make a mean crispy papa taco. That perfect balance of salty crunch on the outside and pillowy soft inside to satisfy all the cravings. Service was friendly and efficient. 10 minutes for a pick up order during a weekday lunch rush is impressive. Another awesome deal is that you can help yourself to their chips and salsa bar. In fact, the salsas here are all delicious and make a great addition to anything you order. Maybe next time I will try the carnitas.

I had forgotten this little Mexican cafe was here, and was glad to reacquaint myself with their meals! My husband and I used to drop by here frequently for snacks when we were running errands around town. We love the Nautical Bean next door, so a coffee follow-up is usually in order after a tasty meal here. We were traipsing around on Christmas errands, and wanted a quick healthy meal. My husband wanted breakfast, and I was looking for lunch. Donald got the eggs with ham and hash browns, and I chose the grilled shrimp taco. We scooped up some warm chips in a bowl, and sat down to munch away on the chips, enjoying the bright and colorful atmosphere in the cafe. We could see lots of tables outside on the sidewalk, and rows of cars parked in front. We had parked around back, since you can walk into this cafe from the back parking. The meals arrived soon, and we were enjoying our fresh and flavorful dishes in minutes. I particularly liked my street-taco style shrimp taco, and the salad that came with his breakfast was very light and refreshing. The little place was constantly busy with all ages of people bustling in and out for the very reasonably priced dishes.

TACO TUESDAYYYS. Come in for either sit down or take out, tacos are served at $1.75 each on tuesdays. I came in wondering if they had any vegetarian options, and they did! I ordered 2 veggies and 2 fish tacos. At the time they were doing a deal so fish tacos were $2.50 each. I got one grilled and one fried, definitely came with a good sized fish inside. The veggie taco came with rice, beans, lettuce, salsa, guacamole, and cheese. Honestly it was giving salad over a tortilla vibes but it was super filling and packed with fresh vegetables! Will be sure to come back again. TACO TUESDAY

Taco Roco is rapidly becoming my favorite Mexican spot. It's not exactly fast food, and it's not a full sit-down experience, but the food is terrific! Plus, there's a Pokemon Go gym in the parking lot, so you can play while you wait. They have two patios now, one in front and one in back, plus an extended dining area in the parking lot due to COVID. They don't appear to be social distancing, but I was impressed with their cleaning game. I saw at least four employees clearing tables, sweeping and mopping, and cleaning the bathroom, all in the half hour we were there. That was impressive. The cashier was friendly, and we ordered quickly. I had three hard shell beef tacos, and my wife ordered a bean & cheese burrito. Her burrito was huge; it was easily over a pound. She plastered it with salsa from the salsa bar, and her only comment was that the "medium" salsa was, in fact, "mild." Otherwise, she liked the burrito as prepared, and took home over half of it for lunch. My tacos were likewise a solid portion. Served on a small tray, they were loaded with beef, cheese, lettuce and tomato. The beef is finely shredded and juicy, and hot enough for the last bite to still be warm. I will be having these again soon! I do wish they had Diet Dr Pepper. I see that Taco Roco is a local chain, so I will look forward to trying another franchise soon!
