201 Buchanan Dr, Charlottetown, PE C1E 2E4, Canada
Taco Boyz mission is to strive to define a new standard for quick serve fresh food ideas that sets us apart from the ordinary. We use high-quality raw ingredients, classic Mexican cooking methods with friendly staff. Taco Boyz sources as much available local products as possible and offers a diverse menu of Mexican inspired street food. Our customers love our signature meat seasonings, sauces, and specialty items. Come see why our Burrito Loco Mondays, Taco Wednesday, and Quesadilla Saturdays are such a hit!
When our burrito was being made they split the side when closing it and didn’t offer to re-wrap it. As a note no extra ingredients were requested and it’s a pretty plan burrito we got.They interrupted us constantly while ordering and telling ingredients wanted on the burrito and burrito bowl. Inconsistent on amount of ingredients on a burrito vs a bowl this from several different visits we have noticed.
I cannot believe i am saying this. Last night i tried tacos it was amazing. It was soft and fresh with lots of lettuce not too much sauce. I dare say, i might do it again next week. Staff was friendly. No lie, i really liked it.
Rude staff, rude owners. Tacoboyz 201 Buchanan has gone downhill and continues to decline. Staff need to find jobs that make them happy because they are all so rude. Food is terrible and they literally just throw the veggies on the food, they don't look at you, they just stare. Its such a miserable place. Don't spend your money there.1 star is being generous.
Had a bad experience at Taco Boys. The staff was rude, and when we asked for extra veggies, they said we’d be charged, which was unexpected. A smile and a friendly hello could have made a big difference. Hope the service improves.
Great service. Taco pockets are my new fav! Delicious cranberry salsa.
Stopped by here for a quick eat and was pleasantly surprised. The price was quite good for the portion. They have lots of variety from tacos, burritos, quesadillas, nachos, bowls, and churros. It was tasty and the topping/sauce options were plenty. Would come back here again 👌
Long line with only 2 staff tonight. No brown rice options but delicious taco bowl had mine with lettuce. burritos are huge and nicely filled and the tacos are also good crispy and soft taco used in one.
Honestly. They make their burritos the "white man" way. With no spice or flavor. The only thing that makes the burrito taste like a burrito is the salsa... I was really hoping for the best because in Ontario we have "Burrito Boyz" and they don't try to fit in with the others around them. They stand out with amazing and authentic Mexican flavor. Something "Taco Boys" is desperately missing. Otherwise, great people! Great setup! Good food and great portion sizes! You tell can't go wrong trying the chimichanga! (Vegetarian option available!)
service is very good specially morning staff
Poor service as management changed and stored is owned by punjabi guy he doesn t care about hygiene and doesn t know how to deal with customers he came in wrong field don t recommend this place at all
Dont recommend this place their owner meet doesn t have sense how to talk to customers he have ego problem guys prefer going somewhere else
Great food. Reasonable prices.
Friendly-staff.
Decent tacos, friendly lady helped us. 2nd time at this location. Definitely be back. Prices were good.
Staff are unfriendly and useless
Excellent tacos with plenty of choice for toppings
Wow. So thrilled there s a taco place this good on pei. First time i ve eaten Mexican food here in over 10 years and and won t be going elsewhere in the future Huge portions too!
Great place Amazing staff
Highly recommend the dessert - churros!
What happened to you guys? Your staff members are so incredibly rude. I ordered a monster burrito bowl and had to ask if the monster got 3 or 4 scoops of meat because she only put 3, and she said she put 4. I also had to ask for beans because she didnt put any on. I almost refuse to order anything else because your burritos and tacos seem to be (and are, Ive seen) literally thrown together. Also the tacos pockets are not even what they used to be. The shell was split and placed in a circle, now its being placed folded together to the side? I worked for this company and this store a couple years ago and the standards are insanely low now and its honestly disappointing.
Food was delicious, service was good!
My go to place
You have to try their Monster Burrito with all the fixins. Hands down the best burrito I have ever had.
Rude staff, filthy tables. Too bad. I used to spend a lot of money there. Won t be going back.
Great service and food
This place was fantastic when it opened a few years ago. Great service, even better food. Every time Ive gone in the last couple of years, its been cold food and rude service. If you want to keep your business around, there needs to be changes. The effort I saw before just isnt there at all anymore.
Wow this place is flavourful, I love the sauce variety and the beef barbacoa is incredible, I also like the Mexican rice in my Burrito bowl...I visit everytime Im on the island, which is often.
I always love taco boys its definitely my number one stop when I go to Charlottetown I live in Summerside and its about an hour drive and I go there Once a week Its worth it every penny and the days I go coincide with some of their best specials The only thing I dont like about the place is the fact that it is pretty small and theres not a lot of room for people But thats very minor considering you get such good quality food like you see them cooking the chicken basting it flipping it turning it its so good like it its so fresh its delicious I love it I just wish it was a little bit bigger You feel like youre right next to someone when youre there But the tacos and the quesadillas and the chimichangas all amazing And you can get nachos to go home and cook Its just awesome they have so many choices of what to get chicken beef Stake seafood Fish shrimp And then they have Mexican sodas that are really good and they have churros and oh my God the Bavarian cream Cheryl is like the best thing after you eat a case idea its like heaven And the cranberry salsa oh my goodness so good And I dont even like cranberries lol When I 1st started going there I would just get like plain tacos lettuce cheese beef or let us cheese chicken now Im getting peppers and hot peppers and sauces and corn and green onions and theres just so many toppings and so much to get Its so good I cant say enough good things about taco boys I wish they would get a location in Summerside Its a 5 star food dining experience for me I eat there basically every time I go. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options you dont have to get meat at all So many toppings in the vegetable department to choose from Parking: Theres parking in front of the store and in the middle of the parking lot theres a few other places The little strip but theres always a place to park Kid-friendliness: The workers are always nice always pleasant to deal with Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible You can Pull away the chairs and youre sitting right at the table
Awesome thanks
I was surprised by the flavours and presentation of the food. More of a take out than an eat in decor.
Rude employees.
Sukhdeep was the server, She was fantastic in her job, Much experienced lady to serve customers with a bright smile. Would like to see more like her at other places as well, She deserves a raise in her field.,
I have not tried but have not so far as the app or online ordering doesnt give you enough options to make what you want... something as simple as lettuce you dont have the option to add.. why wouldnt that be an option!?
Always amazing I can never finish my burritos because they re always SO stuffed! Love.
Food was cold, dried out chicken, girl was rude. I have never been there before I guess I was asking too many questions.
The dining area was soooo dirty! I was so excited to try their food, but I got so disappointed as I walked in...
Tried the food yesterday. It was delicious and the staff was polite even though it was too busy.
Food was delicious with excellent customer service, one person was handling everything in very accurate way. Went to eat food today and recommend others to go and grab food of good quality.
Excellent portion sizes at a very affordable price, I personally found the chicken tacos to be a little bland but the carnitas and beef ones were amazing
Delicious! My favourite place on PEI to get American tacos. Cant beat the prices either! Food
Great business! I love trying different quick service restaurants that we dont have back home and this did not disappoint! Delicious and fresh ingredients, very helpful staff, and so many options to choose from! Will be back for sure!
Taco Wednesday is fantastic
Lady messed up my order put super spicy sauce on my quesadilla instead of garlic and also didnt give me a receipt :( Teach your employees to grab the right sauce you absolute monsters (Pic is how I feel) Bro at the front was super nice tho with the beard give him a raise
Always delicious, but they never have the beef barbacoa, which is the best meat there in my opinion :(
Decent tocos. Good service
I had the large nachos and they were huge and super flavorful. Lots of different topping to add and the price is good. Tables out front weren t the cleanest looking but the staff were nice and patient.
Such a big surprise we were looking for a place to eat that was still open even though it was late and stumbled upon Taco Boyz. The tacos were really good and so was the price! The service was exceptional, dont sleep on this place
Went to the Peter Pan location. After my first bite of my burrito, I thought I must have just hit a bad spot because it tasted like burnt cardboard. So I took a second bite from a different angle... something seemed off... took one more bite to confirm... and yes, it smelled and tasted like burnt dog kibble. The last time I was at the original location (Kirkwood Mews) it was so delicious, I felt like I was ashamed to be seen enjoying something so much. But that was actual MEXICAN FOOD! Aside from the posters on the wall, there was nothing mexican about this place at all. What I had today was essentially Subway with rice... with, for some reason, a final step that burnt the outside of the wrap... Not in a grilled sort of flavor-adding step, just burnt. The rice was tangy, but not in a good way... more of a Mr. Clean kind of way. The chicken was cat food... they dont have actual chicken strips (or beef) just shredded cat-food-looking pieces. I got home and through it in the garbage. Mistakenly, I took it inside the house to chuck it, and now the whole house smells like burnt dog kibble. Ultimately I had no choice but to induce vomiting - yes, it was THAT bad. The lingering stench of the burrito is still gagging me. The attached pic shows what my +$20 (including 20% tip) got me. At least Subway has bacon.
Good efficient service here food was good and fresh too. I ate almost 5 days a week here when visiting PEI for work keep up the good work!
Amazing variety at a low cost!
I want to like this place, but the three times Ive been here there have been issues. Today I ordered online, a 30 minute wait, and after the 30 minutes they had forgotten to make it. No apology, no discount, that equals no tip. I wont be likely to try again.
Ok tacos ..bad service
Its good.
Usually I would give this place 5 stars but tonight I had a large chicken burrito and it was terrible. My daughter ordered it for me and we couldnt sit in because every table was filthy with food crumbs on them. We went home to eat it and there was virtually no veggies and I get everything on it . Really disappointed...
Bland and flavorless
Its good but sort of bland somehow. The employees kept speaking to eachother while making my food and barely seemed to listen to me
Order took over an hour to be delivered and when it got here it was a complete mess in the bag The delivery driver was peeping in my door window because my dogs were barking but very Erie nonetheless
The food is really more like 3.5 stars, its pretty good but not mindblowing, but I give it an extra star for being consistent, reliable and affordable. Many other restaurants in PEI vary in quality from visit to visit, but Taco Boyz is always good. Its a go-to.
Excellent tacos, great value for your money!
its very avarage place to eat burritos. we ordered veggie burritos but they dont have anything like Guac mexi girll or bar burrito for vegeterian. Even spicy sauces are not spicey here. they give you lots of cheese but i think its too much for burritos i believe. staff did their best but there was lack of everything.
I am giving two stars because the server in the middle (she handled the veggies and stuff to be added in the Taco) was nice enough. Overall, the other employees and the taste make this an underwhelming experience. 1.) They wrapped hard Taco within a layer of soft Taco. Real Authentic Taco should either be pure hard Taco OR pure soft Taco.Hard Taco and soft Taco should not be mixed together. 2.) The guy at the cash register gave me a very discomforting look when I said I am paying for my boyfriend and my own Taco. 3.) The guy at the cash register used his bare hands to touch the Burrito. He should be putting gloves on !!!!! Please train your staff to be polite to customers and follow food safety guidelines and protocols.
Me, my sister and cousin showed up at about 10 after 11 really really wanting tacos but didnt realize they were closed. The two lovely ladies working saw us outside pleading for tacos and they told us they had limited toppings and depending on what we wanted we could come in, we said literally anything they could make so they let us in!!! Literally the nicest people ever, everyone please go here and tip them well! They didnt have to do that at all and made our night!! :))
Lots of specials here for given days of the week. Good is standard. Staff are super nice and you can tell are hard working people. Found it interesting that they had a brown rice option. Not bad.
Definitely hitting this place up next time Im in charlottetown. So good. Nice clean restaurant. Friendly staff. Just overall a joy to definitely take in.
Chicken burrito is very tasty
The bathroom is DISGUSTING.
Good daily deals
Always love getting tacos here, tho it would be nice to have the sauce evenly. Every time I ask for insane sauce, they barely put any on. But overall one of my favorite place.
Server couldnt understand what we were trying to order, taco shell was soggy and meat was dry. Ingredients didnt taste fresh. Used to be a huge fan but this experience threw me off.
Love the loaded nachos! Incredibly huge and delicious!!
Their sweet chili chicken is amazing!
Always love to get Taco boys, specially every Wednesday when they have their tacos promo 3 for $6, the only downside to taco boys is that they never seems to make my tacos correctly. They never give enough hot sauce, always have to ask for extra, and even sometimes they dont give it extra. And I always ask for insane sauce.
Excellent tasting food, friendly service and reasonable pricing! Loved it!
Healthy and delicious, Wednesday is best for taco.
Probably the best taco franchise in all of canada! A must try!
I forgot my airpods pro at taco boys. Mick was the one who put a lot of efforts to find me cause of my engraved name on it. Such an honest worker. Thank you man. Taco boyz is definitely my stop everyday after work from now on. And a great customer service thanks for everything.
Good burritos and bowls, et.al. really good service today.
Best tacos and overall food around
Awesome local Taco spot
Really really good food. So many sauces to spice it up.
Quesdillas are amazing. Salsa is too spicy .
First time eating here! I will definitely be back
I have ordered from here 3 times now and all 3 times, my order has been wrong! How is it hard to make nachos with beef??? I mentioned the beef 3 times tonight.... 3 times.... but guess what wasnt on it? Thats right.... beef! I definitely was still charged for the beef though! Last time, I ordered chips and salsa... guess what was missing? Yup...... the Salsa!!! And dont even get me started on the tacos! Im honestly just really disappointed because i really love the menu and the food could be great if the people working werent rushing through all he orders all the time. I doubt i will be returning a 4th time. I feel as though they had enough chances.
Good food, slightly inconsistent based on who is making it.
Great food at fair prices!
The chimmichunga is strongly recommended
No one knows the WiFi password. Tables were dirty. Trash bins were full. The food was decent.
Love it
TACOS ARE AWESOME, writing this review makes me want TACOS.
I dont know what happened with this place..... I used to love this place so much that i was eating from hear everyday. Now the new staff is so lazy and rude that do neither follow instructions given in an online order nor verbally This week i ordered 2 times and it came after more than 80 minutes and its not that live too from the store.... Distance is just 5 minutes drive. And when you call them for order update, they says, we still have time we will deliver and this was after 50 minutes have been passed. If Mandy(Owner) you are reading this... Please pay attention to this. Thank you.
Like the Boritos.
Not a good staff but nice food:)
Wow! Now I understand what all the hype is about. My dad got me two tacos for my birthday supper. He told the employee to just put whatever most people get on them. The employee knows her stuff because them tacos were amazing! The takeout dish was piled with ingredients, so much so that I can make at least one more taco out of it since they also included extra tortillas. If I had eaten lunch today, I probably could have gotten two meals out of them because they are so filling! Taco Boyz is going to be my new go to when in Charlottetown!
The barrito I had was absolutely delicious. If to go, do yourself a favor and get the Jarritos cola. Its Incredible!
Disappointed
Great food and fast service
Food was great
Good Food, but seriously work on your staff. Their Attitude is really bad.
Really good!
I would like to enjoy more this place because tacos are good and cheap but is really annoying how they NEVER have pork and they dont seem to care about solving the issue. I went five times there and only one time they had pork.
Good food ilfor a fast food joint. If you want okay fast food go here. I dont care if you do or dont. Thanks Elliott McNeil McInnis
nice and spicy sauces.
Buchanan location issues gift cards but doesn t accept them. Service is great in store. Management needs work and customer service doesn t seem top priority. I really enjoy their food but I d rather drive the extra 5 minutes to the kirkwood location that gives better customer service. Upper line management needs a lot of work though, doesn t seem to appreciate customers willing to pay as long as the money is coming through. Pretty profitable business too so maybe invest in a better management team.
Been here a few times, and it is consistently delicious. Lots of flavours to mix together for a different mean every time
Not amazing but not terrible, adequate.
Friendly staff, great deals on Wednesday and Saturday
I was pleasently surprised overall. The food and choice was excellent. It was well organized and clean. Bathrooms were also clean. Through the lunch hour it remained quite busy but the line up moved quickly. Also, parking was good.
Food was mediocre at best.
Now that is what I call good food. This will be definitely a need to go every trip now! We are down visiting from Nova Scotia & we got a burrito and a burrito bowl and it had so much flavour and just was perfect. Thank you again!
Quick and delicious
Amazing food and love their . Will be back for sure
It was pretty good
You can usually find me here once a week
Took my wife twice to this place. Their food is really delicious. My wife loved. So when you are in the area pay them a visit.
Love love love we one in Pictou county NS.
Food is amazing. Never had a bad meal from taco boyz
Pretty great food, not the cheapest but its fast, greasy goodness and probably some of the best food to eat when your absolutely zooted or drunk, the only reason for 4 stars is the aftermath on the toilet later that night or the next morning. 100% recommend
They were very busy this evening but handled it with speed and efficiency. The food was REALLY good! Very pleased and impressed... we will be back!!!
Felt rushed and pushy...didnt even get to pick a sauce for my burrito. White rice only. Didnt get a bag for my food to go.
Havent really had a great experience yet. Food is good but customer service is very much lacking. Employees can be rude and questioning towards customers.
Good food, line moved well despite lineup. Burrito bean bowl was rasty. Hot sauce was actually Id like to have seen kidney or pinto beans as choice as well as black beans. Chips and salsa were good.
Best salsa and quesadillas Ive had in a long time. Highly recommend the deep fried cheesecake.
ux
Good food .
Food was not good, was not the same taste as what I had before. Will not be going back
Great food, plus you can tell how good it is, by the length of the waiting line.
Great experience and really good quesadillas.
Great food ! Always fresh ingredients .
always the best
Ill be honest. Island burritos didnt appeal to me. I once went to order from their first location. I was met with an overly eager guy calling me Bruh. I hung up. But I was naive. The staff are polite, good at their jobs, and the food is good (also they grill unlike some other places). This is the only place Ive eaten where 14.00 dollars fills me to where I cant finish my meal. Im a big guy and an even bigger eater, and they won... this time.
Great food.....good prices....and pretty fast with it being busy most of the times!!!
Awesome..Love this place..
Slow workers
Great food a little slow at preparation sometimes but always a great place to get a chimichanga
Good food and amazing service.
Food was good
I swear this place will be the death of me, its too good.
Everything on the menue is delicious and fresh..have never had a bad experience..staff are great and very pleasant
Nice food but good only for to go
Decent food, but slow delivery mid day, and they forgot my extra sauces I ordered.
Great taco
Love it...
Such great fast service. Always happy to be there and they make a mean meal. Fill you for days. Thank you
