Nomada Tacos are absolutely amazing at every stage :) We've ordered online from Nomada's and it's straightforward and simple; we've ordered over the phone and the staff are helpful and wonderful! We've eaten in-house and the staff and service are quick, friendly, and professional (and genuinely kind). The restaurant itself is lovely and clean. We've gotten take out and the quality of the food remains incredible even over the drive to our home 20 minutes away. The food is consistent delicious and they have seriously good vegetarian options with actual nutritious vegetables. We will continue to return here again and again :) Thank you, as always!

Fun and funky interior. I stopped in for the first time for lunch. Met by a friendly fellow who may be an owner. The menu was simple and perfect. I went with the chicken enchiladas. They were outstanding. All nice and fresh ingredients. The habenaro hot sauce put on the table was homemade and a great touch. 100 percent I will come again.

My girlfriend found this place in the summer and she's been meaning to go back since then. We took a road trip today so I can finally try the food. Let's just say I was impressed! We ordered the some elotes to start and then we ordered saily special which was scallop tacos, the carne asada tacos and the hamburger taco. All of them were amazing by the carne asada is out of this world. The flavors in the taco are amazing. The staff that waited our table was amazing and made sure we had everything and always topped off her glass of water. And at the end we ordered some churros to go and those are also very delicious It was worth the road trip there and if you are in the Pembroke area I definitely suggest you stop there for some real good tacos!!

Wow, blown away by this place. I grabbed some chips and guacamole and a chorizo quesadilla and it was some of the best food I’ve ever had. Absolutely check them out if you like Mexican food. The spice level was perfect. I will be coming back for sure

If you are craving salty elotes, look no further than Nomada. I am so happy to have found such a gem in Pembroke. I wish soooo badly they had tamales too, because if their corn is that good, I can't imagine how delicious their tamales would be! I've been 4 times and always leave happy and full.

This may very well be the best taco place in the world - and that’s not hyperbole - it is so good it had me running through not only the best tacos I’ve ever had, but the best food experiences I’ve ever had. I’ve been to all of Rick Bayless’ places in Chicago, I go to Big Star any time I have a 2+ hour layover at ORD, I’ve sought out the best Mexican food in the American Southwest through Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah, I’ve eaten exceptional food from high and low brow places across Mexico City and Oaxaca. Nomada stands up to any of them. It’s such a fantastic little place, with incredible food, an in house hot sauce that’s worth the trip by itself, and an adventurousness that could only happen in a place that doesn’t take itself *too* seriously - I’d never even considered the idea of a scallop taco, but it was perhaps the most delicious concoction I’ve ever had the pleasure to eat.

I should have put up this post a long time, but I do tell everyone this is a must visit. My friend said he didnt like tacos, now eats them all the time. To be fair he had a burrito first.

Got the family meal of tacos last night. (beef and pork) It was fantastic. Got it with a side of guac and tortilla chips. We were surprised how much food we actually got. For four people we had leftovers. The whole family enjoyed it. My only suggestion for Nomada, is to label your containers. After my family taste tested, debated, mixed sauces and finally figured out which sauces go with which meats and toppings, it was 5 stars.

Visited a few weeks back with my three kids and wife. Our waiter couldn t have been friendlier and professional. The food was literally as good at it gets . This is a sensational Mexican restaurant, was totally blown away by the tuna crudo, fish, carnitas and carne asada tacos. We go to our family cottage once per year during the summer from Montreal, and you can bet that we ll be making it a tradition to have a dinner at Nomada s each year going forward!

When they added the tuna to the permanent appetizers.. Oh goodness, I melted. That dish is fabulous. My friend and I go in pretty often and the service is always great.

Really amazing tacos and cute vibe! Worth the price since they load the toppings. Ive tried everything on the menu and its all been tasty. Highly recommend the loco bean dip as an appetizer because it surpassed my expectations. I honestly didnt think bean dip could be so yummy. I usually go for the tacos and 2 or 3 is plenty. The chorizo, carne asada, and pescado are definitely must trys!

First time in Pembroke for work. I had the weekend off and read the reviews about this place and had to try it. I walked into a lovely little spot music was inviting staff were friendly and they were busy. I ordered the Carne Asada and the Chorizo tacos with the platter with beans and rice. Immediately blown away by the freshness in the flavor one of the most authentic tasting tacos I have had. The chorizo had a nice kick but nothing crazy for spice as it should be and the Carne was top tier. From start to finish I was waiting about 15 minutes for my take out order and the whole time I was offered complimentary water and constantly checked on the waitress/batista seemed to be really good at her job and I think the owner hand delivered my take out to me. I would recommend this to anybody looking for authentic Mexican food or just a good eat 10/10 will be back.

We got the family deal that feeds 4-6 people. Wow!!! Absolutely impressed, right from when I put the online order in. They had the courtesy to call me to let me know that it would not be ready for the time I ordered which is understandable because they just opened for the day. The portions where amazing. We had leftovers. The only down fall was not having enough sauce. We took our meal home so I can t talk about the atmosphere other than going to pick it up it was cute. Service was great and they even helped me to the door and opened it for me because my hands were full. Would definitely recommend for families.

After being so hesitant to try what looked to be a real authentic taco place in Pembroke , let me just say... I am not even joking when saying these are some of the best tacos Ive ever had. The flavour on the carnitas in particular, was phenomenal. Each taco is dressed individually to complement the flavours of the meat, authentic corn tortillas, even a cold Jaritos on the side. I can say with certainty I will be a weekly visitor at minimum . Absolutely delicious.

I was in Pembroke this past weekend for the Ontario Winter Games and fell in love with this town and Nomada Tacos. Our friends went the day before and told us we had to go, so we brought them back as well . All 6 of us shared the Salsa and Quacamole and chips, soooo tasty. Then we all had some tacos and Coronas. It was the coldest day this year, but we felt like we were in Mexico. Small cozy place with loads of flavour. I envy those that live close by. Id eat there every week i i did.

Food does not disappoint. So nice to find a great place like this in a smallish town. Better than a lot of tacos we have ever had anywhere else. We came back twice before we left town just to have them again. They are on the more pricey side but for what you get its well worth it. 3 was almost too much!

This is hands down the best taco place, I, my girlfriend, and my friends all from Toronto originally, have ever been to. The food is excellent, tastiest tacos I have ever had. The prices are extremely reasonable, with the portions on the larger side. The service is better than most restaurants in the GTA, possibly the best I have experienced as well. 2 tacos is more than enough to fill for a good meal, 3 and youll be stuffed. As soon as youre thinking you might possibly need more water, drinks, w/e soon, without fail, the server shows up to top you up or ask. They have the timing down to a science, I was and have been seriously impressed every time I return. The servers are polite and friendly, the outdoor patio is nice compared to what else is in the area, the indoor atmosphere is cute and run, if a little hot during the summer - though they mentioned new AC was being installed so that may no longer be the case. Their house made hotsauce, available at every table complimentary during your meal is phenomenal. The flavour is very good, and the heat always gets the the point where it would be about to hurt your mouth and then it stops just shy of it. My girlfriend who cant handle spice loves it as well, and its available for take home purchase for about 12 dollars. All in all, if it wasnt clear from all I have written, I would highly recommend visiting this restaurant. Whether youre from the area, out of the area and visiting, or even not near by at all, its seriously worth the trip. You will not regret it. The chips and guacamole are excellent too, and we received free top-ups of both throughout our meal on multiple occasions. The beef they use tastes so much better than any I have had in Tacos. The seasoning and quality is excellent. Dietary restrictions: They are extremely willing to adjust menu items to fit dietary restrictions, though when they are busy they may not remember to remove or adjust all toppings requested. This happened once to me, however the majority of times I have been were perfect. Parking: Parking is available nearby on the street or many parking lots, or directly behind the buisness.

I have eaten here 4 times in the past month and I cannot get enough. Having been to Mexico a few times myself, I can say that the food here is a nice reminder of my travels. The service is excellent and very fast. The atmosphere in the restaurant is casual but clean and comfortable to hang out in. If you re ever in Pembroke make sure to eat here! My favourite tacos are the carne asada and the fish taco with lots of their diablo hot sauce. Don t skip the ceviche either.

So. I have made alot of reviews and I dont like giving bad reviews but.... I have tried Nomadas and I was disappointed. The al pastor tacos were dry. I think they use a center cut instead of a pork butt of shoulder. It lacked the flavor that al pastor should have. I guess I will have to make it myself and share it with them. Not going to lie Im kinda a taco snob now. Thanks for the reply. You did have al pastor tacos 2 years ago. I have actually had your tacos 3 different times. I always give a chance. All your tacos are dry. You charge extra for salsa. Come on... be authentic. And yes I will bring you al pastor. With a double tortilla with minimal pineapple. The way it should be. The picture I posted is my chicken al pastor. For reference. I also added a picture of my al pastor.

Ordered from here for the first time tonight, got an assortment of tacos & I thought I had ordered a quesidilla but I accidentally ordered chicken enchiladas instead. My husband had the fish & chorizo tacos, he absolutely loved the fish! I had the pork & beef tacos, both were so delicious. The enchilada was so flipping good! We were bummed that I messed up the order & we didnt have a quesidilla but the enchilada made up for my mistake, were excited to order again & finally get to try that quesidilla. Absolutely will be back!

Just felt like some tacos. Pork, Chorizo, Beef and Fish! Surpassed expectations! The tacos were excellent!!!

December 22, 2023

Absolutely not impressed that the waiter added the tip to the bill without my consent on the amount I wanted to pay ! When he was asked to correct that so I could add the amount I wanted, he was rude so I hit no tip. As far as Im concerned you dont add the tip automatically. That is up to the customer. The attitude received was not 100% satisfactory and not to mention we had to ask for napkins, cutlery and everything. Not once did our waiter come to our table and ask us about our food. Definitely will NOT return !! Way way too expensive. $63.00 for two quesadillas and guacamole and chips and two drinks is ridiculous. Attitude was piss poor !!

This place screams authenticity. From the homemade salsa to the ingredients meticulously picked and prepared, every bite I took of my burrito shot me back to my vacations in Mexico. Extremely friendly staff and a great atmosphere makes Nomadic Tacos my new favourite spot for Authentic Mexican cuisine in Pembroke, and possibly all of Ontario. You pay for what you get and I got nothing but quality with lots of care and love put into my meal. Will definitely make this my spot for when I have a hankering for delicious mexican food, which I admit, is very often. Thank you Nomado Tacos!
