What customers say?

“ We had the Burquero burgers and green Chile fries. Excellent burger, one of the best burgers (if not the best) I've had in Albuquerque! The Green Chile Cheese fries had good flavor but undercooked so make sure you ask for extra crispy fries if you don't want them remotely soggy. That's the only reason the food didn't get 5 stars. Service was okay - food was slightly cold due to them possibly not writing the phone number down correctly to text us when the order was ready. We had take-out next door at the brewery, hence take-out. ”

“ Wow! Get a bang for your buck at this taco shop! The fries were crazy good. We had the Saturday shrimp special tacos too. Comes with 3 tacos and a drink for $9.75. Fountain drink selection is pretty limited though. But we will definitely come back to this place for some tacos. The atmosphere is light, with low, upbeat music in the background. There are tons of decorations and stuff to read about on the walls. Great place to hang out, the seating is nice a comfortable without being overcrowded. Many different unique salsa flavors to go with your tacos. ”

“ Tako Ten is... fine. The tacos exist and are served to you on plates, sometimes even warm. The menu has things on it, and those things turn into food that is generally taco-shaped. Flavors are there, but they don’t shout... they sort of gently wave from across the street. Service was friendly in that way where you’re not sure if they remember you ordered or are just being nice. The decor is modern, or trying to be. I didn’t regret going, but I also didn’t tell anyone I went. Solid three stars, bumped to four because the salsa bar wasn’t sticky. ”

“ The food? The service?? Outstanding to say the least. The food is so reasonably priced and delicious. We are visiting and want to come back to eat every day!!!!!! 10/10 across the board. Victor was especially helpful! ”
