I just saw this place last week. Unable to find ANY info on it (Facebook, insta, website). Anyone tried it? It looks kinda sketchy, but who knows!?
Where on Stockton is it?
I think it's Stockton and Ernest or Dellwood. It's a bright green building.

How did RAP allow this one to slip through?
OK... I drove by it again tonight. It's called "Nacho Taco", and is a bright BLUE building (with a bright green interior), on the corner of Ernest and Stockton. I'll probably try it out later this week. If anyone has any info or reviews, I'd like to hear about it!
Per their facebook page they just opened this month. Ill have to check it out
That spot used to be the Motor City Grill. I remember it was kind of like a drive thru bbq place. It closed a while ago. Glad to see something new has opened up there.

Is that an old Skinner's Dairy building that's been de-winged?

Sorry about that, was on the work computer with FB blocked when I posted. Pulled the FB page on my cell!

Its in an existing structure, where they used to sell BBQ. Its not as if the owners created plans to gut it and put forth a 200 seat restaurant. Some restaurant owners actually have a brain......and use it!

I think he was referring to the paint color.
Chuckled at them using a Taco Bell promo pic in their menu.
Yes, it is a dewinged Skinner Dairy.
Got take away lunch there today - pulled pork tacos, with more fresh made chips than I could eat.
Was good, will go again.
Ordered the Steak Fajita Nachos takeout for lunch today. They get my sale of approval.
Almost started a new thread because I couldn't find one on Nacho Taco when searching.
So, I just OD'd on the chicken fajuita nachos for 7.99. I'm entering a deep food coma and I still have half of Monday to get through. They were wondering how I found them, I told them MetroJax sent me.
No tables or anything, not yet at least. The lady at the register said they should get those setup soon. Everything else looks good as well, can't wait to go back.
Got the Chicken Cali Burrito. It was huge and came with a lot of chips, queso, and multiple salsa. Delicious!

Paint Color isn't restricted by JHPC
This place almost knows me on a first name basis already. It's not a flavor explosion but the food just taste fresh. Like it's homecooked or something you'd find off of a really good street vendor/taco truck.
And Hah, I didnt notice the tables on the side. This will save me from eating chicken nachos in my car.

So far, so good on the Restaurant Inspection too.

I went yesterday and it was awesome. Huge portions and authentic style mexican. Not a tex-mexy over-seasoned burrito place.
This is where the BBQ place used to be.
Ate there today and it's really tasty. Think Mr. Taco meets Riverside.
I knew it would be good when my taco came in a corn tortilla with fresh onion, cilantro and a lime wedge instead of mounds of cheese and loaded with sour cream.
On the recommendation of the other posters here I just stopped in for a late lunch. Carne Asada tacos. VERY fresh tasting. Rice was fluffy. Refried beans were perfect, not soupy at all. Prices was reasonable. The owners were extremely friendly and very happy about the business. The owner said the chef was from a little town in Mexico... guess that's why the food tasted so authentic.
I highly recommend Nacho Taco. I know I will return... maybe for dinner in a couple hours.
My only hope is that they add Mexican Coke to the beverage assortment.
Got delivery from them last night. First I will say very prompt service, it was under 30 minutes from putting in the order to the driver ringing the door bell.
GF got the chicken tacos, she had no complaints.
I ordered beef chimichangas. Definitely not something I would order if I was at a work lunch but delicious none the same. The dog ended up eating a decent portion because I was so stuffed.
Went this weekend with the girlf. I got pulled pork tacos, she got a chicken quesadilla, and we got a side of guac. The food was more than we could eat, and came with a ton of chips. It was EXACTLY what I've been wanting since moving here a few years ago. Authentic Mexican food that you can't get anywhere else in Jacksonville! Exactly what I'd get at a small hole in the wall true Mexican restaurant on the west coast, not crappy flavorless American style tex-mex.
We talked to one of the owners and his wife for a while. Very nice people. The chef is also from a small town in Mexico, and everything is authentically made fresh and from scratch.
Extremely tasty, filling, and not too expensive. I will DEFINITELY be eating there regularly!
Hey Erikk, are you able to change the name of the topic to reflect the correct name of the place? Not sure you can make that edit at this point.
How about one of you mods?
done.
Erikk,
This place is really good, but if you find yourself craving something similar:
Mr. Taco near Bowden.
That is all.
Does either place have Menudo on Saturdays? THAT would be authentic...
No menudo on stockton
Nacho Taco continues to impress with great food and warm friendly hospitality. Business seems brisk. Hope everyone stops by and checks them out. Good people putting out good product. So far have loved the tacos, burritos and enchiladas.
I went on Saturday and it was fairly busy for 2:00 in the afternoon. Saw at least five people come and go as I waited. We got two taco plates and they were delicious. Can't wait to go back and try something different.

Add the chicken skewers to the list. and the Strawberry Chimichanga dessert. Both were quite yummy.
Pretty hard to please when it comes to Mexican. But.....this place is incredible. Stoked it's here!!
Ok, so I'm officially hooked on this place. I have eaten there the past two days in a row. There are extra vegetarian and vegan options that aren't written on the menu (yet) that my girlfriend loves. The nacho supreme was humungous and delicious. Pork tacos were righteous as well. Maybe I'll report back later when i succeed at trying everything offered on the menu ;)

Well since they have vegan options, I have to go now!
I always feel awkward asking businesses if they have vegan options.
I think he word is getting out about this place. We attempted to order delivery a week or so ago and were told that they had to temporarily suspend delivery service (which is back up now in case anyone was worried) while they trained additional staff due to the high demand!
We picked up yesterday. First thought, large portions. They do not skimp. This includes their tacos.
Second thought, very fresh.
Third thought, middle of the road taste wise.
Fourth thought, salsas were tasty.
Fifth thought, chips could have been better. Left a film in my mouth. Slight taste of burnt.
It's good!
Was in twice this week. They have added staff and are busy training them to keep up with the demand. Some menu changes are coming as well. Looks like Nacho Taco is a hit.
Ordered delivery the other day and it was to my house in 20 minutes. Food was Spot on and super happy they have the vegan chorizo!
