On a recent trip to San Antonio, Texas, a friend suggested that we eat at a well-known Taco joint. After hearing the legend of Taco Taco, I was in! We arrived to find a line OUT THE DOOR! I get excited, and even call my Dad, a Food Network fanatic, to let him in on the taco celebration that's about to occur.
We get in, and get a seat.... this place is pretty small, and doesn't really look too awesome on the inside... so I start to get nervous. They bring us our drinks, and one of our cups had FRESH lipstick on it! Nasty, but overlooked in excitement. CRAP! My DP is flat, but I can handle that, lets' get some food! I went with Migas, always a pleaser, and our table ordered a pretty good variety of menu choices. At this point in time I begin to note the poor punctuality of the wait staff, and the excitement is gone. Starting to get cranky, I look around with a much more detailed inspector-eye. Greasy Mexicans, nasty plates, dirty floors, cafeteria cheese, questionable sanitation, it's a Health Code violation NATION!
Finally, Juanita brings us our nationally-recognized, multiply mentioned tacos. Nothing looked too special upon arrival, and I can ASSURE you that mine did not taste special! Kel's queso was ferosh, and the breakfast tacos were not really anything to jump around about. The boys liked theirs, of course, but "the legend" had me expecting to be blown away.... Flabbergasted! Not in the least!
I just don't understand how anyone could think that place was so incredible. There are taco-shacks in Austin that would WORK Taco Taco. Food Network, and whoever else, you are retarded. That place doesn't even deserve ONE Taco. Taco NOTco.
