3001 S Saginaw Rd, Midland, MI 48640, United States
The Taste of Midland is Midland’s newest and tastiest family owned Tex-Mex restaurant! The Taste of Midland is a second location branched off the original The Taste of Bay City in Bay City, MI. There is a full menu of items ranging from appetizers, à la carte items, entrees, and children’s meals! There are also daily food specials seven days a week and a full bar with a variety of speciality margaritas! In addition to excellent food and drinks, there is also lottery and occasional entertainment such as music offered.
We stopped in for lunch. Just as they opened for the day. I was very surprised by the quality of the lunch. Exceeded expectations. But previous reviews nailed it if you get a chance to stop this quiet little bar-esque great Mexican food spot stop by and give them a taste.
Paid over $40 for 6 steak tacos with little to no meat in them for take out. Also got one side of rice and beans and chips and salsa . Chips are burnt, and came in a ziploc bag. Food tasted terrible. Couldn’t even eat it. Service was good. Guy on the phone was nice. Would not recommend for authentic Mexican…wouldn’t recommend for food in general.
First time here. The food was fabulous, and i loved the margaritas and the one to go. 🥰 We will be back.
My mom and I stopped here today based just on review pictures from google. The food looked amazing. We can say, we were not disappointed! First, our waitress Tara was awesome. She was super friendly and went above and beyond. Next was the food. So flavorful and great sized portions. We will for sure be back!!
Don’t let the lack of exterior signage and missing parking lines deter you. The Taste of Midland is amazing. The bar & grill atmosphere is cozy and the wait staff is friendly. And though the name doesn’t immediately bring Mexican cuisine to mind, it is truly a taste worth tasting. The food was delicious. The presentation reminded me of restaurants in the suburbs of Detroit and throughout Ann Arbor. And the proportions were exceptional. We had the Birria Tacos, Carne Asada Tacos (sub Chicken), Double-Decker Tacos and the Burrito Supreme (sub Chicken, minus Cheese & Sour Cream). All highly recommended. Thank you for a great experience. We will definitely be back.
The food was hot and very tasty. The ingredients were fresh. We ate most of our leftovers right after getting home. We cannot wait to go back. The service was top tier.
Food was so good! We did the Valentines Special and for the price, it was worth it!! The portions were huge and delicious! Our waitress Tara was so nice! She was quick and checked in with us frequently! We will definitely be back
Very busy Mexican restaurant just off Bay City Rd. Blockhouse style building is reminiscent of a small family owned restaurant in Mexico. Very good food in portions commensurate with the price was quickly prepared and arrived hot at the table after only a short wait. Darius was an amazing server; super friendly and knowledgeable, high energy, and able to help with our choices. Multiple types of margaritas are available including flights of four are recommended, as well as a full dessert menu. Entree prices run $14-$18. Entrees.come with beans and Spanish style rice. I am looking forward to going back.
Best tacos around!! Love the crisp taco shells and margaritas! Excellent chips and homemade salsa with friendly staff!
Could not get my family members in the restaurant, not handicapped friendly.
Great taco tuesday.
The food was delicious! Our server was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!
Food, bad, just plain bad. Taco Bell is a Gourmet spot compared to this.
Tara was amazing!! And food was perfect!!!! Thankyou
Everything was perfect! Tara gave us great and friendly service, she made the meal 10x better!
Its definitely gone downhill! The margarita flights use to be amazing, now they are just syrup!
Tara was an amazing server! Super quick and attentive!
Tara was amazing!! Super quick and attentive!
This place was awesome. I will make the almost 2 hour trip again because this place has great food and an awesome atmosphere with people that make you feel like family.
Food was really good and came out quickly and piping hot. Our server Tara was the best; were always happy when she has our table. Highly recommend.
Amazing restraunt Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp at the main entrance to allow easy access for handicap people and they have ramp on the inside for them to get out as well Food : 5/5 |
Tara is always excellent when we dine in. Super friendly and positive. Never leave disappointed and the birria tacos are the bomb!
Great natchos.
Just went here because it had good reviews, But it is far from anything of good. Service was poor, Food was disgusting, My kid took one bite of their food and didn t like it and they still charged us, would not recommend, this place needs to be shut down, there were flies everywhere!!
Its a smelly dive bar with terrible tacos.
Dont let the exterior fool you. Fabulous food and super friendly staff. Food was out super fast and complimentary chips with salsa were exceptional. Just beware that margaritas have a lot of ice and not so much mix and read the menu carefully. Meals are priced with beef, so if you want chicken, there will be an upcharge. However, you also get discount for paying with cash! Would defintely eat here again!
Great tacos on point, relaxed local atmosphere. Would venture again
The food is always so different every time I go in. Its almost like they have no standard measurements on their recipes. Every time Im in the food tastes completely different. Sometimes its bland and sometimes its super salty. The only saving grace is most of their margaritas are pretty good.
Salsa was great, waitress was fantastic. The cook could care less about wether your food is fresh or even right for that matter. Because of that I will not return, taco-bells chicken tacos are better!
Food was great! Jess was awesome and took good care of us! Came out pretty fast!
Heather was very attentive and kind
Jessica was as excellent as the meal!
The food was very I recommend the chimichangas an the service was amazing tori was a very kind she came and checked to see if we needed anything at the right times I most definitely will be coming back
Been going to their restaurants since they opened the first one in Bay City! Food is great, service is phenomenal and a great family atmosphere! Tonight we decided to go visit their Midland location! Our waitress Jess was fantastic and Paige worked magic in the kitchen!
Food is very tasty. Chips are really good. Heather gave us awesome service.
Tacos very good. Boyfriend loves the chips. Heather is the best!
Food looks nothing like what they show. The enchiladas were the size of a candy bar and no sauce on them. Had to pay extra for sour cream and salsa.
No problems with the server. Food was very disappointing. Very salty. Something was scorched- possibly the rice or meat? The hard taco and nacho chips are flour tortillas that were fried so dark they were one shade away from burnt. When we expressed our dissatisfaction to the manager she said that this is just how they make it and everybody is served exactly like this; the implication was that they will not be changing anything and she didnt like my opinion. I will not be back.
Definitely at Taste of Midland every Tuesday for the 1$ tacos!!! They have amazing deals everyday!!!!!
Try the Birria tacos. You wont be sorry
Food tasted terrible. One waitress doing all the work. We will never return. Do not recommend.
Great food for the price. Fajitas were the bomb diggity! Staff is always awesome and drinks were nice and strong. Cant go wrong here. Go check em out.
the birria was so stellar. what a charming little place!!
Nachos were greasy and stale. Ran out of guacamole. Tacos were bland. Beer was flat. Only cheap white wine available. Service was friendly and fast.
Cannot say we were pleased with this place. Food was okay at best. Chips were hard and not even salted. Margaritas we got on our flight were overly sweet! This place just missed the mark in my opinion. There are plenty of local places that I would recommend going to rather than this place.
The proprietor exhibited an air of overconfidence and seemed unconcerned about the accuracy of orders. I have personally observed this on multiple occasions.
The biggest issue is consistency. I had the Birria tacos once and the console broth was dark and rich and delicious. Then evey time I have tried it after that it has been different.
The food and service were very good, thank you Heather! We both ordered the jalapeño margarita which was nice n spicy and some freshly fried chips with salsa that was so good we ordered three more bowls for our entrees. The Birrea tacos and wet burrito were delicious with lots of good flavors and textures.The atmosphere, or lack of, is my only complaint. Its still Bushys bar in there - nothing really festive, or welcoming, and like the name Taste of Midland, nothing that says Mexican restaurant,it still just has that industrial bar feel. We will definitely be going back, and I do recommend it, but I hope to see some future improvements with the interior.
Went for taco Tuesday. They dont skimp. Great food.
We came in with A group of 14 and it took 2 hours to get food and out of there. We didnt eat together at all. 1 group of are table got there food and finished before the next group of our group got theres. The bathrooms were nasty and it wasnt clean in there at all. The waitress was rude. She couldve got A 50 percent tip because Im A server and know how to treat people and how to serve! We traveled 45 minutes to try this place. Dont waste your money! The only thing good was the drinks!!!
Why did my enchilada sauce taste like coney dog sauce??
Food was OK not great. Staff was friendly, place is a dump. It has potential if they clean it up and fix it upba but and use better quality ingredients... i could tell the cheese was like cheap wraper cheese.
Mandi was so helpful explaining the unique things on their menu and the food was yummy. The rice is to die for! Best EVER!!!
Mandi took good care of us. First time here so her recommendations steered our choices. Food great - chili and Beria tacos. Yummmm. Music a tad loud though for old ears.
Food was amazing...cant wait to come back beeria tacos on point n carne asada chimichanga out of this world good
We always have a great experience here. Food is always amazing and fresh. Drinks are great. We love it. Penny Jo is a fantastic server. So helpful and friendly! Highly recommend!!!!
This makes me sad bc I come here at least once a week but I have to say something. Called 30 mins before my lunch to order 9 tacos for my coworkers and I. They said it s a 25 min wait. I wait 30 mins and go in to pay for my order. I waited for another 25 mins in store before I asked for a refund, bc I have a 30 min lunch and needed to get back. When i asked for the refund she went in the back and immediately grabbed my food. Do they just wait for people to get angry to grab their order?? There needs to be a better takeout system or just don t do it at all. This has happened to me and multiple other people before. They have messed up my orders so many times but I ve never cared bc I loved this place so much. I know it s taco Tuesday but why tell me 25 mins when it s gonna be an hour wait? For 9 tacos that are like 4 ingredients? Very unprofessional, I will not be returning.
Quick place for lunch near the Midland iPark.
Food has no flavor. I always try a restaurant more than once and try different dishes each time. Three visits all the same. Meat had no seasoning, refried beans tasted like they came right out of a can and chips are icky. Had to keep brushing flies off my food. Margaritas were good but not worth suffering thru a meal to have one.
Not a fan of 5 staring places usually I. An fins something to complain about. But man is the food and service good
Food was amazing love the flaco tacos and the service was fantastic as always
Taco Tuesday
Very tasty..
Food and service have been phenomenal both times Ive been there. It has become my new favorite restaurant. Cant beat the $1 tacos, the jazzy jalapeno poppers are a must have and Im working on trying more of the menu, the sample plate was an amazing start to that. My server is always in a great mood and keeps sodas and waters filled without having to ask her. Food always arrives at the table hot, fresh, and delicious. Looking forward to having a driver one time to try the margaritas as well. The atmosphere is great, its also about the only restaurant Im comfortable in even when its busy. Other places are unbearably loud and with hearing issues and tinnitus coupled with anxiety at times its the only place I can hear the conversations at my table and my head isnt in a swivel the entire time Im there.
Food was delicious and waitress was beautiful
Loved the food, drinks were great! Service was great, Val and Tara took great care of us
Every time we come here it s always great! Tara is so sweet and knowledgeable of the menu, and food and drinks always come out so fast!
First time at the Taste and I loved it! Great food, great service, definitely will be back. Our waitress Tara was 100 percent!
Been here 3 times never had a good meal very disappointed nice place just bad food
The food was alright, service was good. I had fajitas and they were over cooked. I did enjoy that their chips were homemade and so were the tortillas and the salsa was great. Good place to go, I would go back again.
$1 dollar tacos on taco Tuesday. Cant go wrong...
This is the best place for Mexican food I have ever been to. From service, to drinks, to food. I recommend everyone check it out
Food was cold and not good. Service was underwhelming, although I think the waitress was tending bar and waiting on all of the tables. Small servings of sour cream and guacamole were outrageously expensive. Queso was expensive and not good.
Very impressed with this place!! Food was absolutely delicious and the service was amazing! Will definitely be a new favorite in town!!
Service Its terrible You never come here with anymore money
The food was ok, lots of garlic though. And the service was HORRIBLE!!!! Wont go back.
Southwest chicken the best.
New place so we stopped in. It was really good the server Tara was great and recommended the jalapeño margarita and my wife loved it. I had the chicken fajita salad and she had a chimi. We both agreed it was good.
The gauc was too much lemon juice, the nachos were pretty bland and basic, carne tacos came out smelling like bad cheese and tasted like nothing even though the meat was bright red. The server started out great until we said something about the guac and then just seemed annoyed we were there but did ask if we needed more drinks. The strawberry margarita tasted like mix with no tequila. All in all the food was not worth the price and the jalapeno margarita was the only thing that I was happy about when I left. Get some new cooks and it could be greatly improved. The servers were definitely not the problem. Parking: Parking was easy but they had one other table when we went.
Second try. Service was lackluster at best. Waited almost 20 minutes for drinks for 2. Only 2 other tables seated so not busy at all. Food was ordered, waitress brought incorrect order but quickly remedied. Food was not great. Steak fajitas were covered in some red sauce and it was excessive. Not tasty at all. Overcooked and chewy. Queso was ok. Margaritas were good. Will perhaps revisit for drinks and queso but the meals have been sub par.
Delicious food! Love their queso sauce. Great atmosphere with tasty margaritas and Keno too. We will definitely be coming back.
The waitress was very polite, and attentive to us. The food was very good, with large portions. We went at lunchtime and it was very relaxing.
Excellent food
Decent food, very bad service! Went there tonight with a group of friends and our kids. First off, kids are not all that patient. We got our drinks but no straws. After having to ask for straws it took at least 5-7 mins just to get the straws. All the while my nephew is whining cuz he wants to drink his pop. My husband never even received his drink at all. Food came out and it was pretty decent. The rice was a lil burnt and beans were dry. But when we recieved the bill it was incorrect. The waiter had put some of the other groups stuff on our bill, including my nephews drink. But he had gotten the kids meal which is supposed to come with a drink! Then we got charged for chicken with the wet burrito, but the waiter never told us there would be a upcharge after he asked us if we want chicken or beef. Then my SIL ordered queso, which was supposed to be 1.99 but was on our bill for 3.00. I would definitely consider a different restaurant
Tried for the first time today and the last time. Not authentic Mexican. It was cold and no flavor.. after 2 bites I threw it away... if I wanted taco bell Id go to taco bell..
Salsa and chips werent great, wait was long and food was adequate but not worth the trip.
Food was just so so! Nothing special. Was really hoping for something better.
Thought we try another Mexican restaurant in town. Steak fajitas were terrible. Meat tough, very little onion. Tortillas burnt. Queso yucky. I just wasted $50!!!!
Very Friendly staff, cold in the restaurant, great margaritas!! Food wasnt bad, but we went for the drinks. $25 for the 4 margarita flights, well worth it.
We had a great time. The atmosphere was quiet, perfect for catching up. There was more than enough Margarita flavors to choose from and they were all tasty. Id like to thank the wait staff especially Darrius who was friendly and knowledgeable about everything on the menu. Everyone enjoyed their dish and the price was reasonable. Cant wait to go back.
The Birria tacos are my religion.
Very disappointed. 1 churro, hard as a rock and was $8.00! Seriously!!! The rice taste smoked/burnt. The enchilada is decent. Tostado she ll overcook and I asked for soft corn and got flour.
Best Birria tacos and margaritas
Good drinks, only 1 star because I gave the waitress $60 and she came back saying I only gave her $40 when the other two people in my party said they watched me set $60 on the table and then hand it to her when she came to pick it up. And when she came back I had to give her ANOTHER $20 first and last visit.
Tuesday tacos were good. I could only eat one, I had to take my second one home. Our waitress was very nice. I go back.
The Mexican food is not bad for a northern state.
Always good margaritas, was really sad the patio wasn t open. Their pretzels and cheese are great too!
Need new drink glasses, chimmy cold and lam sides Service ok. Booth seat was hard,plate rocked on table.
Food is awsome ,workers very nice ,love the atmosphere...fun with friends.
Awesome daily specials
Second time here, to see if it had improved from when they first opened and the verdict is, not really. Its kind of strange that the enchilada sauce is greatly over-salted yet the refried beans are beyond bland. So, the food is two stars at best, but the margaritas are great and rate at least four stars. So go and drink, but be wary of the food. There are better places to get your Mexican food fix.
Tuesday tacos !
Get the Birria tacos! They are like no other Birria that I have had. So flavorful and delicious! Parking: Parking is weird right now, the two businesses have shared a lot for many many years and now it is barriered with cement walls. The other business is vacant so Im not sure why it would matter.
Food quality seems to be slipping. Great staff that work there, very kind and friendly.
We order take out The food is always great and ready togo when we get there.
Tara is the best waitress! So positive and fun! Very patient and helpful with food and drink choices!!! Excellent first visit drove an hour and I was not disappointed! We will be back!
Our waitress Tara was amazing!!! Fun and full of smiles! Very attentive!!! Worth the hour drive!!! Absolutely will return
Great food and atmosphere! The servers are also awesome, especially Tera.
Great food! Tara was an amazing server who customized everything down to the salsa. Try the queso burrito with buffalo chicken, its fantastic!
Im just gonna say this . IF YOU HAVENT BEEN YOU MUST GO IF U LOVE TACOS. n DRINKS . GREAT ATMOSPHERE SO RELAXED .... thank you guys from Ohio Birra taco fantastic...
I LOVE the food !!! I used to live in San Diego and I am so happy that there is a good Mexican Restaurant in Midland. The Taco Salad, the Wet Burrito, the Refried Beans, Rice and the Flautos are all great. The portion size is large. If you love Mexican Food I suggest you give it a try.
I come here most Tuesdays for the 1$ tacos. There s always so good and filled up to the top. 10/10 Recommend!
Ordered take out. Very fast and friendly staff. Had the Nachos and Tostada, both where great. The chips and the tostada shell was awesome, very light and crisp and not salty like some places.
When theyre busy they take the phone off the hook. Inconvenient for trying to place a carry-out order
I work down the road and visit about once per week. Its the one thing I look forward to!
First time trying this place, we loved it. 5 stars for sure. Food was amazing. Very well priced. And the service was about perfect. We ll be back for sure!
Had the chimichanga, which was good, the margarita flight which was great. A fellow dinner told me their taco shells were a little overdone. Food : 4/5
We went for a late lunch. We both had the nachos, very good.
Let me start by saying our server was alright. However, this place advertises margaritas and tequila. Unfortunately, this is just another place that serves you premade mix for an exaggerated price. The barria tacos were okay but overcooked and overloaded with cheese. They would have been okay if they were not overcooked. My wife got a tostada which came loaded with cheese and not meat. For the price of a meal and drinks it was not worth it at all.
The food is ok - it felt dry and warmed rather than cooked fresh. The service staff was friendly and helpful, but it felt understaffed. Its definitely an upgrade from the dive that used to inhabit the building, but still super generic and kind of bland decor. Parking is stupid, but i didnt get towed so i guess its ok. Id eat there again, but probably not as a first choice.
We went for dinner and margaritas as a large group for ladies night. Our waitress Tara was great!!!! She was efficient, right on top of refills and everything. The drinks were excellent! The food was so yummy, everyone at the table was very satisfied. Keep up the great work and service!!!
Met a couple friends here for lunch, the portion sizes were good. Unfortunately the sign and building are easy to miss. The refried beans were pretty salty but my burrito and my friends nachos and tacos were pretty good. Nothing particularly stood out to me as amazing but I would stop in again.
Great place especially taco Tuesday
You get so much it is well worth the prices.
Good Mexican restaurant, great margaritas.
I always love going to the taste of midland the staff is always helpful and kind they have great food I never leave disappointed in the meal
I had heard so much about this place but after eating here with my fiance not as impressed as I had hoped Parking: The parking lot is horrible and pot holes plus in the winter its very icy and NOT salted or well maintained
Great food! Awesome Employees!
We have been going here alot since they opened.Yesterday we. Purchased 10 chicken tacos (no sour cream) get home they all have sour cream but didnt have time to travel back there contacted them they said they would replace them but had to wait till next Tuesday because thats when there on sale,it shouldn t matter and we shouldn t have to wait another week for them to replace them when we paid for them so we are probably just going to stop going there
What a hidden gem! Food was incredibly simple and authentic! Great portions and made to order. Nothing came out of a box or a bag...! Service was amazing. Do not let its location (its a little off the beaten path) fool you. I wish we had one in Cincinnati. Keep up the great work.
We ordered fajitas. We could not bite through the meat. It was like a rubber. The beans tasted burnt. The tortillas were really dry. First time in our lives that we left after one bite of food. The waitress was friendly, and the service was good. We paid our bill. We tipped the waitress and went to a different restaurant.
It was a Taco Tuesday, about 5:30. I expected a table wait, but lots of empties. Not much effort by staff. Ordered hard shell tacos with beef filling and pour margaritas. The Margarita arrived without the usual slated rum. My guest and I both agreed the beef taste was off. Presented the bill and discovered they had raised the Margarita price by $3. Apparently change in promotion. Did not get a copy receipt either. Did make a small profit in Michigan Club Keno! We are postponing future trips for an extended time.
Tuesday 1 dollar tacos cheap lunch dinner
The taste is terrible. The food was bland and not close to Mexican food.
Well sat down waited for 1hr and half for food. And when we got the food it was wrong also watched other guests who came in 30min after us receive there oders before us. We did enjoy the margaritas.
Tara was so friendly,present & helpful. We waited a bit because our receipt didn t print for the kitchen. She gave us our guacamole free and apologized. She made the experience great! The food also tasted amazing! The guacamole was so fresh!!! Wheelchair accessibility: Low bathroom sink and ramp coming in!
Pretty decent but nothing really special. The nachos were very middle of the road, no queso or guac. Beer was a little on the warm side. Again it wasnt bad. Just lack luster Wheelchair accessibility: Perfectly accessible through both doors and plenty of room between tables.
The absolute worst Mexican food that I have ever tasted. Probably the worst food that i have ever tasted. And i have tried it 3 or 4 times. And the loudest restaurant I have ever been too. I dont think of this place as a restaurant. More like a bar with regulars, that serves food. The regulars that were there when I was the first time were very loud, obnoxious, and annoying. Its just bad bar food.
Beef quesadilla and Flacco Taco dinner was fantastic. The wet burrito is very good also. 07/01/23: Visited on a Saturday. She had 2 tacos, I had the Barilla Taco dinner. Fantastic! The spice is not for the uninitiated. So good! 09/26/2023: Visited on a Tuesday late afternoon for a birthday celebration. The Flacco Taco dinner was tasty. So good!
Good food good service beats the heck out lascos for service!
$1 taco Tuesdays!!! What
They make their own chips. Yes the chips are amazing. The ingredients were obviously fresh and made at the restraunt. If you have not grabbed lunch here take 45 minutes out of your day. You will be happy with the food. I saw a good number of people picking up take also.
Had cheese enchiladas with onions. I thought the onions would be inside and not raw on top of the dish. Beans and rice were average at best. Home made chips and salsa was really good. No refill on my water.
The only thing that saved it was the margarita samplers. And even those tasted like kool-aid mix.
I was not impressed at all
Took the family for Tuesday taco night chips were great salsa great and tacos best I have had. Waitress was thought full and made the atmosphere great. Next time will not sit next to the speaker for me it was little to loud, but looking forward to going back
Good. Fast.
Im kind of disappointed with this restaurant, I ordered through doordash, a take out taco salad and it states that it comes with tortilla strips, I get my food and theres no chips. I dont know about you but every taco salad I have had has chips all through it so I called there to see if I could get the tortilla strips and they told me they were just going to remake the taco salad for me my wife goes to pick it up comes back there was maybe seven of these tiny tortilla chip strips on a full take out box of lettuce and meat.
It is seldom to find a Mexican place that serves hard, soft and medium shell tacos. Taco Tuesday was a unique find. I recommend the food but cant understand why they would use such a strange name for a restaurant?
The food was prepared in a timely fashion but my wifes was burnt and she had to send it back. A replacement was brought to the table within a reasonable amount of time. There was a lot of food for the money. Overall, the restaurant was clean and neat, and our server was great!
I came all the way from Florida had to get the margaritas and most definitely flaco tacos!!! Soooo yummy. Denise Gunn
This is the worst place ever!! My husband and I just left there and we should went with our gut instinct, food was disgusting, chips and salsa were nasty tasted like the chips were deep fried 10X, I ordered 1/2 order of Nacho Supreme hubby ordered 3 chicken tacos, the ONLY thing good was the chicken... I would NOT recommend this place to ANYONE..the waitress was ok but very forgetful.
The food was not as good this time.
This was the worst food Ive ever had and beer was close to warm. We spent $50 and left hungry. We were really bummed.
We hosted our staff holiday party here and had a phenomenal experience! Gabbi D and Tara S were our servers and they were able to stay on top of our group of 32 with ease and kindness, kept our drinks full and all our plates came out hot at the same time. Food was amazing - the fried pickles were the highlight of the night - our whole staff loved them! Gabbi and Tara were excellent hosts, all praise for the two of them keeping up with us! Thanks for an amazing event!
Love it here ALWAYS The margaritas are the BOMB Food is always quick and delicious Food : 5/5
Drinks are way too sugary and unbalanced. Food is good, a bit salty
My friend and I visited the other evening after I found the restaurant online. It was our first time there. Service was attentive and very prompt. The food was outstanding. It has a quaint friendly atmosphere.
Amazing food, drinks, and service!
Tara was very attentive to our large group and did a wonderful job. The food was great and done quickly for lunch.
I came in with a group of co-workers. We had Tara. She was absolutely awesome! She was very attentive to our table and very friendly! Food was excellent!
Excellent service and food! Tara was attentive, friendly, and all around an excellent server.
Great food, great service, location a little worn but still cozy. The price was great as well had something for the whole family. I would say a must if you want mexican food in midland. Bonus is a full bar too.
Great little place glad they had an outdoor place to sit it was kinda loud inside but we went on a Thursday evening when they had karaoke the staff was very nice and friendly the food was really good Im so glad they turned this run down bar into something really amazing
Food was amazing when it first opened, seems to be a little worse everytime I visit. Hope it was just a cooks off night because we used to really enjoy this place as a family
Best Mexican restaurant around! The lunch specials are . Keep up the good work
Friendly bar atmosphere..a bit noisy. Food came out pretty quick and is moderately priced given the large portion size. The food has an excellent presentation but it all seemed pretty mild. The salsa was mild and the enchilada had no spice to it. Cheese was bland. Beans were average (like from a can) and the rice had an odd smoky flavor too it. It was a bit dry too. Will try other Mexican restaurants before visiting again.
Just want to say that this is the best place for taco s!! Just was there for taco Tuesday had a lot of fun of course. The service was very good!! And of course will be back next week for more!!!
It looked like a dive but some of the best eats come from small hole in the wall places and the reviews were 4.5!! The seats were ripped and duct taped- which I understand- unless 3/4 of the booth seat is duct tapped I ordered a Tostada rice, and beans, the hubs chicken fajitas, rice and beans. Outside of the rice- the food was nasty. My husband is like Mikey- he will eat anything- but not this, he ate 1 fajita and was completely grossed out. He said the orange sauce on the chicken was disgusting (which fajitas chicken is usually Marinated- not sauced ) Super disappointed.
They use the term food real loosely at taste of midland, got the protein bowl and had to struggle to choke it down with its mushy rice and rubbery shrimp i came when they first opened and had the tacos the meat is litteral dogfood AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST!!!!!
speedy service, large menu and lots of different things to try. tasty taco salad, had half to take home so it was a pretty large portion. great prices for the great food you re getting.
Delicious food, great service, highly recommend.
Great service. Drink prices were very high from the size of the drink you get. The beers on tap were not as cold as they should have been so they tried to compensate by giving a cold glass.
Small hole in the wall place from the outside AMAZING FOOD and drinks inside! Friendly staff!
No too good not too bad
Parking: Lots of parking. Room for an RV or Trailer.
Been to the one in bay city many times. This one did not disappoint. Great food, good drinks. Server was friendly. Thanks yall
They use too much taco seasoning. And the boxed rice was not good at all. Food made me sick embarrassed to say but like non stop toilet sick. I am Mexican and never had this experience with mexican food. Ever!
Very good food and friendly staff. Will go back again I loved everything about this place
Everything from the atmosphere, food, and staff was awesome!! The ground beef is SO flavorful and the Mexican rice is good! There is a ton of food and drinks to choose from! Parking: A ton of parking, even for huge vehicles!
These guys are always fast and courteous
Been there 1 time taco Tuesday awesome!
The burrito supreme was dry and barely had any toppings on it so when I asked for a little more lettuce tomato and sour cream, they charged me extra for it. Just put the normal amount of toppings instead of being a Scrooge. Do not recommend this place.
Fast and friendly service.
Service and food was okay. I was sat at a dirty table but there was a bug party there at the time. Charging for more chips or salsa was upsetting. The options were pricey so I just ordered a few tacos.
Fantastic food!
Good food and great service.
Amazing staff with amazing drinks and food. They have child changing tables in the bathroom too. Monica and Tera treated us like we were family and friends.
We go on Thursdays for karaoke and the food is always fantastic they have great specials as well as the staff is excellent always caters to us. The DJ Trisha is amazingly talented as a singer its like going to watch a show theres about four or five singers that are all good enough to be professionals its a great food great atmosphere and always a good time
Dinner was great. The chips and salsa were the best. I don t know if I ve had a taco that good in town!
Food hasnt been top notche last two times Ive been there. But overall food is decent foe the area and decent prices when compared to competitors
Ordered via door dash a few nights ago, it was our second try with Taste of Midland. The first, several months ago, wasnt the greatest and the food arrived luke warm. This try, we ordered the meals, myself having the 3 tostada meal and my wife the 3 taco meal. Via the app they should of come with beans and rice, neither did. They were also not even luke warm, very much on the cold side when they arrived. Packaging was fine, and it isnt a far drive, about 7 minutes during rush hour. So not sure why both meals were cold. Lacked any seasoning as well for the beans/chicken/beef. I heard the Bay City location was really good, and this one has quite a few 5 star reviews. So far, it is a bit below average at best.
Good food and decent prices.
Food is good. Service is good. Their taco Tuesday is a lot of fun.
We went here cause we were looking for a new go-to Mexican restaurant in Midland. Online it looked good. The restaurant and bar were pretty nice and we were hopeful that we would love it. We first ordered classic margaritas on the rocks. I thought they were pretty good, my girlfriend thought they were mostly mix and not much tequila. We ordered guacamole and you can tell it s handmade. It looked good but it was super heavy on the lemon. I ve had lots of guacamole in my life and it s always been made with lime, not lemon. With that said, it wasn t terrible, just different. Next we ordered dinner and thought we be safe and get steak fajitas for two. But were we wrong. When our fajitas arrived at our table they were not sizzling, and they didn t look like fajitas even though they were on a fajita plate and came with tortillas and all the fixings. When we tasted them, they weren t fajitas at all, they were more like very salty stewed beef. They reminded me of roast beef from when I was a kid. But don t take my word for it, look at the picture. That is not what fajitas are supposed to look like. It was beef stew on a hot plate.
Really great local restaurant. Out of the several times we have gone, all staff members are incredibly friendly. Best tacos and best queso in Midland.
