If you want to sling tacos and tequila you have to be in the right place. Bourbon Street comes with a long history of being the centre of West Edmonton’s restaurant and nightlife scene, so we knew it was the perfect spot to plant our taco flag (yes, we have one in the back) and open up “shop”. Walk down the bustling promenade and let the energy of our cantina draw you in. Come check us out and let us feed you tacos and tequila!

    Authentic guacamole made at the table. I had the Blackened Salmon - lots of food and very flavourful. Highly recommend😊

    It was ok. Service wasn’t great. The table wasn’t cleared till the bill came. Had to ask for napkins, cutlery and more drinks a few times over. Server maybe just had too many people in her section and not enough help.

    It was the worst experiences of my life, we waited 30 minutes and we had no service at all. People around us were sifted after us and they got there orders taken right away. We didn’t stay, I will not be going back to Thai place and I will let my friends and family know about this experience as well.

    Terrible service. Server was friendly but never available. Waited an hour for drinks. Wasn’t even offered water. When I asked another server passing by, it created tension with our original server. Tables for two are tiny and don’t fit all the food and drink when eating. Lots of people unhappy waiting for servers. When servers are available, very friendly.

    This is the second time for us at Taco Shop, and this time we brought out of town friends. Everyone loved their food. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Very cool looking restaurant and lots of seating. Will be returning for a third time.

    Second time here. Loved it again. Very accommodating for a family with a stroller. Service was good, just felt that our server was a little over busy so a few things were missed but it was Saturday. Food was amazing, could have had another serving. Again, outstanding place to go.

    Food was very good. Pretty pricing for Tacos. No substitutions allowed which was disappointing. We’re out of 1/3 of the drinks at 5:30 on a Saturday and the frozen drinks were not frozen at all. May try again as the food was good but service was lacking.
