Sometimes people fall in love something that might only work regionally. I’d probably have smashed some of those after a hard night of drinking though.

TBF, all torbee ever hears from ya'll is complaints about his Mom's taco. He's bound to be a little bitter and lash out thusly.
Tasty Tacos is east side genius. It's state fair food available 6 days per week all year except for important Catholic holidays.
Assuming you name it something super ****ing dumb and charge people 32 bucks while calling it artesian, you will crush.I’m going to open a specialty burger place in Des Moines.
Will serve this:
And make millions serving it to Des Moines rubes.
Edit to add: *West Des Moines.

This is true, it is operated by an authentic Mexican American family. Some of the most successful carneys in Iowa history.
I highly recommend a side of Tasty Taters and a super nacho.
Not gonna lie, those tacos in the first post do not look great....at all.
That is a pic of actual food and not food fluffed for a commercial shoot. This looks totally different.*
*or not. They actually look quite similar.

Well that explains it. They’ve been subjecting trashy white folk to bad fried food for a living for generations. It’s all starting to make sense now.

It’s like someone who had just learned about both gyros and tacos tried to make a combo of both and failed miserably.
I will admit though, that I enjoy using the Tasty Tacos seasoning packets when I make smoked queso. It's better than other seasonings I've tried.
Torbee isn't gonna bang you dude. I don't think anyways. On the other hand, might as well keep going and see what it leads to.

I think I will order some of the seasoning packs. How hot is their hot sauce?

I can't speak for the seasoning packs - I would skip it. The sauce is pretty good, for what you can get in a store.I think I will order some of the seasoning packs. How hot is their hot sauce?

Didn't used to be. I'm suspicious of the bottled stuff but I tried it and it was fine. The sauce you used to get with carry out orders would go bad after two days in the fridge.
Hey phuckstick, the West Des Moines resident refuses to eat Tasty tacos. They are terrible. Saying that, at least we don’t get a hard on for the bison bridge like sum1 we all know around here! Hi Torbee!

You know, I agree. Samesies! Seriously, Nasty Tacos is fuggin turrible. Worse than Casey Pizza bad. Not even shittin ya.
I would still eat it anyway, authentic or not.
7.6 on the fast foot taco rating scale. The shell was good, but a little too puffy. Meat was perfectly seasoned and had good flavor, they also give a good portion of it. The sauce was good at first and had good flavor, but mouth is on fire now so that took it down a notch.
Overall experience was good and would definitely recommend.

I find their pork tacos to be far superior to the original. It's a decent tex mex joint that I find to be really consistent between locations.

GFY and go to Lachele's Fine Foods on Ingersoll for a smash burger. You will thank me.
Never had the hot sauce. I'm also a hot sauce snob so I'm guessing I probably wouldn't be a huge fanI think I will order some of the seasoning packs. How hot is their hot sauce?

Gotta say after reading this thread that torbee‘s food critic skills seem on par with IFBbbtrackgolfetc.
You have to cut filthy river town inhabitants some slack. They are basically inbred.
