Tink-A-Tako

If you want an alcoholic beverage at 6:35 in the morning, this is the place for you.
The place opened at 6:30, I was the first one in as I work nights and wanted some tacos for dinner. While I was seated, looking over the menu… someone who I would refer to as a regular due to rapport with the staff… Sat down, had chips and salsa delivered (I didn’t get offered any chips and salsa :/​) and an alcoholic mixed drink brought to them without requesting it. I admit I was a little jealous cause i would have liked an alcoholic beverage as well, but I didn’t ask, so maybe I could have gotten one as well…
Anyway, tacos were good.

The tacos here really suck. Don’t get me wrong I love a greasy Mexican taco but I wouldn’t consider their tacos greasy more like buttery. They are a decent price which makes them desirable but I wouldn’t recommend any taco from here. I have also tried getting some of the lunch plates and have always been disappointed. I keep trying to give them a chance but I am at my wits end.

Honestly… I have had better food at Taco Bell, the refried beans taste like they come out of a can with no flavor, the taco shell was terrible and hard… the waitress could not speak English… the best part of this meal… oh there wasn’t one!!!

I did not like the Migas. The menu clearly stated what was on the plate and to my surprise there was globs and globs (more than egg) of white cheese. Now some of you may like globs of cheese on everything. I do not. I enjoy a normal portion and really enjoy authentic Mexican food where they don’t mask the food with greasy cheese. This was not to my liking at all. Next time I will go to Martha’s Mexican Restaurant like I should of done to begin with. Next time the waiter should firstly not assume I speak Spanish, and second be aware that the cheese is not described in the menu and should ask me if I mind cheese at all. Luckily for her I never send my plate back nor complain. I made the best of it, paid, and tipped. Ok with a negative, I have to give a positive. The chips and salsa was very good; and the layout is very spacious.

One star is too generous. Can’t wait till this $hit hole goes out of business so something better opens here. Ate here once and it was so greasy. Did drive thru today only because I was in a hurry. How did they mess up a measly three taco order when they don’t even have business? Not even close to what I ordered.

If you are heading out the door and/​or on the go then this place is for you. I’ve dined in and picked up tacos from the drive thru and I would say that their tacos are a bit decent nothing to rave about. I usually order the potato and egg taco and chorizo and egg taco. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is loud and dirty. I’ve never ordered their lunch menu but my parents have and they say it’s not that great either. The drive thru is pretty long no matter what time of day. Today I went thru the drive thru and the waitress did not repeat my order so I moved up and was stuck there for a good 5 – 6 minutes hoping they got my order correct. Eventually they did. They made a mistake on the drink I wanted which was an unsweet tea. Thankfully they corrected it. You have to ask for chile cups in your bag. The most they put is one cup so make sure you tell them exactly how many.

Food: Nothing amazing but not terrible. Standard breakfast tacos which can be an occasional miss. Queso also an occasional miss (too watery) but still decent. Nothing sticks out. I do really like their green salsa though (also sometimes an occasional miss– too watery).
Ambiance: I’ve only ever picked up to go inside or through the drive-​thru. The drive thru can get backed up a bit, so sometimes the line moves pretty slow. (Sometimes it even backs up to Babcock Rd, making it difficult to turn into the parking lot.)
Service: Service also varies. There’s one lady who is just has a terrible attitude for food service, rude, curt, doesn’t like if you have to ask for anything (like extra salsa). Other times, the service is quite friendly!
The main reason we come here so often (several times a month) is because of proximity to us. If not, we’d probably not go out of our way to eat here. But if you are nearby, it’s decent food that’s not pricey.

Tortillas were great but honestly I would stay away. Restaurant is old and there were bugs crawling out of wall where my son was sitting. Menudo had a horrible smell.
