I ordered through Uber and it arrived cold and late. Also 4 of the items were no rice. Guess what, it had rice in them. That is the last time I will be going/ordering from here.

I love taco del mar however tonight wasn't quite on par. I get it whatever it's gonna taste the same however, the eyes eat first. And yeah they aren't happy.

I ordered a Burrito and was truly let down with the quality of the food. The was wrapped poorly and the options were very limited. The wrap itself stale and gave a not so nice "crunch" to the burrito.

★★
July 13, 2024

So disappointed. The food was ice cold upon delivery. The food prep was even worse. The corn taco shells weren’t warmed before they prepped my order so they fell apart as they were wrapped up. The pork was cold and the lettuce I asked for was non existent. The side of pico was somehow fresh but the pico on the tacos was pickled and bad. I’ve never had such a bad meal from Taco Del Mar.

Staff were nice, portions of food large, but all 3 of our meals were cold and we at in. First bite, cold. I got the wet burrito and the meat, rice, beans, all the inside ingredients that should be hot and food safe were completely cold.

One of the standout features of Taco Del Mar is their wet burritos, which are generously filled with meat, beans, cheese, and other toppings. The sauce is what really sets them apart, as it is perfectly seasoned and adds a delicious depth of flavor. Whether you prefer chicken, beef, or vegetarian options, the wet burritos at Taco Del Mar are a must-try.

I tried Taco Del Mar for the first time today. Please note that they don't offer table service and don't have a liquor license. Therefore don't harass the staff regardless of which side you support in terms of the PHO. They offer a lot of vegetarian and vegan options. I bought nachos for 11.75 and I added every topping I could on it for no extra charge including Beyond Meat as my protein base. It was so big the lady asked "is this for here or to go?" I said "here" and she said "OK thank goodness because a lid won't fit on this." As a fast food Mexican place in Vernon, it is pretty good at filling that gap within the community. Hand sanitizer is at the till and at the entrance which is a nice touch.

Pulled up to the parking lot with another car beside me, alcoholic cans of something beside their car. Two young people. The car backed out, running over the cans, and took off despite me looking right at them in disgust. I go inside the Taco Del Mar. The Owner/person working in the back has a thick-non Canadian accent. The employee who is going to take my order is a young rather large girl with short blue hair. I ask her if a young couple just came in and told her about the alcoholic cans in the parking lot (WHICH I PUT IN THE TRASH!) And she said I know those people And left it at that. (they were friends). I got the two-burrito special that is on Saturday and (I got guac) it came to $36.50 Canadian!!! It was the special! Absolute crap experience start to finish. And all the portion sizes were smaller than when I had gone before. The ground beef ladel was TINY. The medium soft drink cups were smaller too, as was the rice/beans. If Im not being clear, this amount of food is not worth $36. The food was okay and every other aspect was awful.

Just had a bad experience with staff and likely wont be back. Been coming here for years and gave a good review before. I went inside and ordered a enchilada platter with a taco. The girl working was new and didnt know she shouldnt add guac and sour cream to the taco. The guy work long hair was giving her a hard time saying it was wrong but when he gave tips just sounded so annoyed the girl got flustered. Once that was done I asked for gauc on the rice like its normally done and was told no I cant because they accidentally added it to the taco earlier. At that point I didnt want to eat there since there was a few minor mistakes but the employee acting so annoyed and bothered makes me not want to come back. The girl was flustered but the guy with long hair needs to chill out and give the customer what is listed on the menu item

Great experience. We placed a large order for a family of six: they then had an oven failure. Without skipping a beat, the manager offered us an upgraded menu choice in place of the daily special they couldnt make for us, at the price of the daily special. All the staff as well as the manager were excellent, friendly. The food was *tasty*. Good job and thanks to the staff here.

I went with the idea of getting seafood I mean the places name del mar but you get same lame 4 options of tacos and freezer supermarket fish, with lots of American topings they just use the mexican Hook to make you paid a lot for cheap can food. Service is quick, not friendly or happy but they deliver. For me the tortillas are the closest to real but is a waist because what they put inside is bad

Normally this is a wonderful place to get quality food for great value... until lately. I have been ordering kids meals for my children for years and its always been a generous portion for them. The last few times Ive noticed the portions getting smaller and the prices being raised (and the staff being quite argumentative when I pointed out that they charged more than what was in the menu board) Today, we ordered for pickup and the burritos were not much more than tortillas wrapped and steamed. They were difficult for my children to chew and had no flavour ... mostly because there was no filling. As you can see in the picture, the burrito is not much wider than my thumb. The rice and beans container was less than half full as well. Not sure whats going on but I certainly hope they can sort it out.

Good food, bad plastic. I eat here often and love the food, fair pricing, and prompt service but I always feel a bit rude eating with plastic cutlery on plastic plates. I wonder how much, if any, of it gets recycled. I wonder what sort of impact it would make to their bottom line to offer normal, washable, reusable cutlery for dine-in customers.

Haven t been to Taco Del Mar in many years. Ordered two hard shell tacos (one shredded beef / one pork) and their baja chicken bowl. Tacos had plenty of filling, and good crunch. The medium hot sauce, failed in the department of being spicy (that just might be my taste). The baja chicken bowl, is deceiving in that there s a fair amount of everything. Would even go as far to say it is balanced with variety. Goes very well with their spicy hot sauce, that has just enough kick, to liven up the flavours. The only negative, would be the price. Yes, it s better quality ingredients than Taco Time, but let s not get carried away. Thank you to the staff for a quick and friendly experience.
