Really good margaritas and guacamole. Everything I've ever eaten here was good, and the overall feeling of the place is authentic. It's by no means fancy, but it gets the job done well.

In my opinion, Taco Taco (allthough has good corn and carne Asada), does not have good service or etiquette. The owners are the worst I think the delivery guys would do a much better job with politeness and welcoming customers. I expressed to them that the guacamole was extremly bitter and not edible, she proceeded to ask me what I expected her to do about it because to her it tastes fine. I did not think it was necessary for her to be in kissing distance from my face and i also did not thik it was cool of her to speak to me like a child. After our exchange of words she took the guacamole and stood right behind our table and ate the guacamole with the other waiters in view of our table. Personally that was extreme, and should have never been handled in that manner by her (the owner) This is all my opinion and experince, it was good food but the service was what really ruined my appetite, hopefully for others it won't be the same.

I just got my second delivery order from Taco Taco, and both times it was overpriced, and hardly identifiable as Mexican food. The $15 burrito I just ate had very little beef, and the rice and beans were entirely flavorless. It seems they are shooting for a healthy Mexican food, but their prices are gouging, and there food is below average - eat thai food, or vietnamese food, or sushi instead.

There are many more exciting choices on the Upper East side - but if you are low on cash and hankering for a burrtio or taco - this place is no-frills, filling and just fine.
