| - No bueno. Hot Taco is just as bad as its ugly twin next door. The atmosphere is great but service and food here is lacking in the quality department.
It was just last Thursday and I ordered two tequila shots... what came out still haunts me. Aside from them coming out warm and not chilled. One shot glass had the usual: salt, lime, tequila; the other...salt, ORANGE, tequila. I literally did a double take and as the waitress saw the horror on my face, which she explained they ran out of limes and thought an orange would suffice. Whatcha talkin' about Willis? This is a Mexican restaurant you can't run out of limes and there is a Publix right up the street, have someone get more. That's like ordering guacamole and they say, "Sorry ran out of avocados, but we have tomatoes!" Just let us know before you make that kind of decision for us, it was insulting and sounded lazy.
The second "hiccup" up of the evening was ordering a side of refried beans. I don't know what is worst, finding out Santa isn't real or the refried beans at Hot Taco. No one does a better job of describing what I received than Outkast. "What's cooler than cool... Ice Cold!" Thankfully I wasn't charged for it, but seriously why was it half frozen? *Insert thinking emoji* The people want to know.
I will say the staff was nice and trying their best that night, but swing and a miss on every other category.
Hot Taco you need to be better, this is South End, stop being an amateur. However, I will most likely be back, not because of the food, service or drinks. But, because it's there.
