“Despite being a chain, Our experience at Taco Deli exceeded our expectations in terms of both allergen safety and flavorful offerings.”

Intrigued by the positive reviews on the Find Me Gluten-Free app, we decided to give Taco Deli, a Texas staple & fast-casual taco restaurant, a try. While not a dedicated gluten-free establishment, Taco Deli offers corn tacos and an array of gluten-free options. Our experience at Taco Deli exceeded our expectations in terms of both allergen safety and flavorful offerings.

Upon arrival, we informed the staff about my gluten allergy, and they assured us that precautions would be taken to prevent cross-contact. They said they would clean the preparation area and had also clearly marked our tacos as allergy orders. Moreover, we were delighted to learn that their corn chips are prepackaged, ensuring their gluten-free status. To accompany the chips, we sampled their salsa verde and salsa roja, both of which were exceptional. Both salsas provided a delightful balance of flavors, with a touch of heat that added an extra kick to our taco adventure.

Having so many GF/DF options at a chain restaurant was pretty cool!

Over the course of our visits to Taco Deli, we had the opportunity to try a variety of tacos. During a breakfast visit, we ordered the Barbacoa Madruguera and the Vaquero, which unfortunately fell short of our expectations. The eggs weren’t seasoned, and the cheese on the tacos was just placed on top and not melted at all.

I would say, they regular tacos are really good though! Among their extensive selection, the Puerco Verde emerged as a clear favorite. The succulent pork and vibrant flavors of this taco made it an absolute delight to savor. As enthusiasts of pork tacos, we couldn't help but appreciate the quality and taste of Taco Deli's Puerco Verde.

One of the standout features of Taco Deli is their diverse menu, offering an array of tacos to suit any mood or craving. Whether you're in the mood for traditional flavors or feel adventurous enough to build your own taco creation, Taco Deli provides ample options to cater to your preferences!
