I head to Rositas or Gueros for tacos al pastor. Chipotle is close by and a great place for good, quick steak tacos, but Taco Deli is #1 for all-around best Mexico City-style tacos in Austin. I grew up in Mexico City, btw. The salsas at Taco Deli could be better and for this reason only, I'm giving them 4... More

This was a fun little trip. The crew is active and pleasant. I tried tacos both cowboy and the space cowboy and it was a good way to enjoy the fine tastes of this place. Whether it's beef or vegetarian, it's a great meal. Next time I gotta tackle some breakfast tacos.

Visited Taco Deli on a sunny Sunday afternoon during a recent visit to Austin.The place was buzzing with activity , pretty busy. Waited in line a short which gave us time to peruse the menu. Several vegetarian options were available much to our delight. We tried several varieties of vegetarian tacos. Don't worry ,these tacos are not enormous so one... More

Food and service are outstanding. The menu is so full of choices and great flavors. I had two taco's along with chips and queso. Salads were a bit weak. Try the Cowboy and Cowgirl taco's you won't be disappointed.

This review is for the SOUTH location on Spyglass (but all put out the same good food). They recently switched to a Non-GMO Corn Tortilla which is excellent and does not fall apart. Great breakfast tacos. And though it can be spicy hot, the Dona Sauce is not to be missed.

Called by here on my way between the airport and the office. It was a great place to grab a snack. Full of people... which shows that it is popular and there is a reason for it with the great selection of tacos. This is going to be a regular stop for me when I am in Austin from now... More

Taco Deli offers incredibly delicious food for hard core meat eaters to vegetarians, from the non-spicy (me - I am a spice wimp) to the love it hot folks. I travel to Austin often and this is always my go to place. Over 100 items on the menu. You are sure to find something you like. Try is all.

I love the food here. I'm a great fan of Taco Deli. I like their salsas. In my opinion, they have the most exotic kind of salsas. Being a vegetarian, i can only vouch for veggy stuff here. "Heather" is my favorite. I can't wait to dine in again at Taco Deli.

The location downtown is a bit better than the North location. The scenery and customer service could be improved at the North location.

Runny, liquid potatoes on runny eggs on a gummy tortilla? Salsa so thin and runny its fed through a tiny pump? And a long, long, long line? Lazy, ironic hipsters? Barf. Go to Maria's. Eat a real meal.
