| - Everything I imagined a Korean taco could be! I have dreamt of Korean tacos, and 9091 is kinda like a dream come true. From the cute Dr. Seuss-esque building to the complex flavors delivered in corn tortillas, the details add up to a winner winner kimchi dinner.
The menu is simple and reasonably priced with tacos, burritos, tortas, and salads. I ordered the spicy chicken tacos. They came heavily dressed in cabbage! Bravo! I love greenery. The flavors were definitely Korean, enhanced by two sauces on the side. One sauce reminded me of bibimbap dressing; the other a galbi marinade. Yum and yum. Plus, I am a huge fan of corn tortillas, and they double 'em up here Mexican street style. Last, but not least, the tacos are served with sweet potato straws. The needle-like nature of this side might not be the best, but even in slivers, the flavor is banging in a big way. I found myself greedily stuffing as many into my mouth as possible to capitalize on the flavor punch. Perhaps shoveling them onto the taco would be smart call, kind of like the old chips on a sandwich trick.
They crank the music for atmosphere. The day we visited it was country! Talk about a culture collision: Korean tacos while listening to Tim McGraw. Hey, as long as they keep the tasty kibbles coming, I'll listen to whatever they like! Hopefully, they'll get more seating in the near future. I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of country-humming taco eaters real soon.
