Taco Joint

I have been to this location of Taco Joint twice so far and once to the location in Richardson. The service was great in both places. The food was always prepared in a timely manner.
In all three instances I had the grilled fish two taco combo. It came with two grilled fish soft tacos, rice and beans, and a drink. First off, I must say the flavor of the food at this location was way better than the one located in Richardson. The rice and beans at both locations were the stars of the meal; very flavorful and seasoned the way I like it. The portion sizes are appropriate for the cost. As for the taco itself, I personally thought the fish could be seasoned better on all 3 occasions that I tried it, but it wasn’t all bad when combined with the different sauces they have available.
I went to this location on a friday night and there were lots of kids; it seemed to be a very family-​oriented establishment (which I liked a lot).
So, overall if you’re looking for a nice place to take your kids for a meal, this place has a lot of things on the menu for kids to try. The service is good and the ambience is nice. The food is just ok in my opinion; then again, my review is based on the grilled fish taco combo that I had.

The food was good but expensive for the amount you get. If this were a French restaurant, i would have given them more leeway. There are other great options on the same corner so give Masala Wok or even Chipotle (yikes…am i really endorsing a chain?!) a try instead.

People seem to like this place though I think it’s really overrated. Mediocre at best, these tacos are greasy and lacking ingredient symmetry. I mean would you like some egg with that cheese taco? If you’re a fan of street tacos do yourself a favor and head to Tacodeli in Oak Cliff.

I enjoy having Taco Joint in Preston Square. A different location, but the same great food.
The service is equally present here. The only thing missing for me is the atmosphere from the Peek location, but I guess that’s what makes the Peek location standout. But here, I love the outdoor seating; this helps giving the place it’s own vibe. The food, the service, and the people watching from the patio are unbeatable.
While there are thousands of taco «joints» in Dallas, Taco Joint is uniquely Tex-​Mex, not Mexican street taco or authentic Mexican, it’s Tex-​Mex and it very good at it. The menu covers all the Tex-​Mex favorites and they do inexpensively.
You will find the same menu items from the other locations. All your favorite items are here along with the fresh sauces.
I usually go with the Crispy Tacos and I wasn’t disappointed at all. The fresh ingredients and flavorful seasoning were all there. And if you’re really hungry, you have to try the «Big B» burrito. This thing is huge and stuffed full of ground beef (sirloin) and refried beans and the rest of the goodies. LOL.
Taco Joint just made it easier for me to get my taco fix when I’m in the Preston Square area.

Get The Disaster, great queso with pico de gallo, guacamole and beef. Awesome! We both had the Friday special: two fish tacos with rice beans and a drink. They didn’t put any coleslaw on my tacos and that is very appreciated. Cooked perfect and very tasty. Quick, friendly service. I would recommend and I will absolutely be back

So glad they opened a Taco Joint here. Always loved taco joint and this location has delivered everything I love to my neighborhood. At this location I have had various breakfast tacos, cheese enchiladas and crispy beef Tacos. My wife has had the crispy chicken tacos. All have been perfect and with way less driving involved.
If you like casual quick tex mex, this is the place. Support your local Taco Joint!
Oh I hear the salads are very good too.

Hallelujah — Taco Joint now has a location at Preston Center. This area of town has been starved for cheap, fast, and good food. The employees at this location are friendly, and the food here tastes the same as other TJ locations in Dallas — and this is a good thing. In particular, the breakfast tacos at this location are a good size and tasty as hell. The Disaster queso is still the bee’s knees.
However, the portion size on other items are questionable. The «Big B» Burrito should be called the Little B: there was not that much meat and veggie filling as half of the inside of the burrito was folded up tortilla. I should have said something to staff, but I had my baby with me and didn’t want to cause a fuss. I’ve noticed the portion sizes at other locations have become skimpy, and this happened around the time taco prices went up to $ 3.09. This sucks.
By the way: The reviewer who says TJ is «white suburban culture tacos» gave Society Bakery five stars — LOL.

This place is great! I’m shocked to see a few not so great reviews. I’ve worked in Preston center for years and this is the first place that’s got me to leave the office for lunch. They are quick with your food, the wait staff is super sweet and always the same and the food is awesome!
I’ve tried a BUNCH of different stuff on the menu and everything has left me doing a yummy happy dance. The disaster queso dip is amazing and you should just go ahead and get it with every meal just so you have it to dip whatever taco you get in it! It’s big so plan on sharing with someone. Also their burritos are massive! So just one will fill you up where as the tacos you can get two ;)
Their breakfast is amazing too and totally worth getting. Oh and the side bar that has all the dips and salsa has a jalapeño ranch that is TO DIE FOR! Wish they sold bottles of it cause I would buy some to have a my home!

Yummmmm love the breakfast tacos here! Visiting some friends in Dallas and they brought us here for breakfast, love having a quick breakfast option that’s better than other fast food. Had two breakfast tacos full off eggs, potatoes and sausage and a side of guac. Also really loved their salsa bar, the Rioja had a nice kick! I guess this location is newer and the staff was all super nice and friendly. Wish we had one of these in Chicago!

So just tried this place on a whim.
It was clean, even the restrooms, so that was awesome. The employees were friendly and the prices were reasonable I just wasn’t wowed by the food.
I got the spicy fried chicken taco and the beef fajita taco. The chicken was hard and overcooked. The fajita taco was mildly warm, at best.
It wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t great. Probably wouldn’t go back.

Love Taco Joint! Every location is nice, and I tried this one the first day it opened. They were ready to go!
The food is always tasty, the staff courteous and prices reasonable.
It made for a nice bike ride from my Oak Lawn condo.

The overall experience was fine. The staff were friendly. The location is clean (even though this location has had at least 2 – 3 restaurants a year in the past 2 years.)
I just don’t know about Taco Joint in general. I went in with all these high expectations… but every time I eat at one, I am just so underwhelmed by the food. Honestly, much of the ingredients seem either very ordinary, if not completely store bought. If you are going to do cheap taco fair, at least give it some personality.
Dallas has a million mexican restaurants, and about a thousand Taco places, some are great. Taco Joint falls in the unfortunate list with Rusty taco where everything is just kind of mediocre and gentrified to accommodate for the imaginationlessness of white suburban culture. Nothing is remotely challenging or unique to the palette. This went all «Zoe’s Kitchen» on everyone. That is not a compliment at all.
If you are into that, I guess this place is serviceable enough. Honestly, I just feel like this whole chain is very forgettable. Don’t waste your time or money with Taco Joint.

I have not been to other taco joints, so this is my first time to visit. There is such an abundance of taco places in DFW, this one is very forgettable. I came in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, the menu extensive, the local beers on tap, clean dining area, patio seating… All sounded great.
That’s where this review takes a turn, the ordering process was slow to say the least. The wait for two tacos and a salad seemed like they must be hand sculpting them in the back.
The food was average at best, the fish taco, not fresh. At least fish should not smell fishy! We tried to return it, only took about 15 to get the new order to us.
Needless to say, I won’t be coming back. There are plenty of other joints that have fresh tacos and excellent service.

Bout time we got Taco Joint in the area, it’s only a couple blocks from my job so I’m pretty happy. First time I went was in East Dallas off peak street and it was quite busy. Looks like this place will attract just as much business. I only wish the flour tortillas were homemade, but my favorite are the crispy beef tacos. The queso is awesome!
Great music and love all the album covers on the walls.

This location has been host to several restaurants that have quickly come and gone. Now that Taco Joint is here, I’m pretty sure they are here to stay.
Everyone in the area is tired of Chipotle and the one thing that makes us get into our cars to drive away from our workplace, is tacos. Rusty and Torchy’s are great, but a little bit of a hike from this location. We’re all very relieved to have a popular taco spot in our neighborhood now. The place was packed by 12 so we were glad that we got there early.
Try The Disaster which is basically a loaded version of queso with guac and beef added. The chips are super thin and delicious… they could only be better if they were warm. You get a HUGE basket of chips with any of the appetizer (salsa, queso, guac, disaster, etc) orders so be prepared to share.
As for the tacos, the table tried a wide variety and mostly everyone was happy. The brisket taco got one «yay» and one «meh» from the table so the jury is still out there. The beef and chicken tacos were satisfactory to everyone and they are of a decent size so you don’t need more than 2 to end your hunger.
The place currently smells a bit strange inside, it’s brand new so I’m sure they are working out the kinks still. Wall is covered with Willie Nelson albums and artwork. There are condiments up front like jalapeño ranch and salsa.
They really need to ditch their «order ready» buzzers. Those are incredibly annoying. They beep and buzz and cause such a disturbance to everyone around them.
We will be back.
