Taco Mama - The Summit - Birmingham, Alabama

I am visiting from out of town. Visited during late afternoon this week. Ordered 2 tacos. One with the barbacoa beef and the other with shrimp. The shrimp were completely raw. The beef was great but after noticing the shrimp was raw I couldn’t eat anymore and left.

First timer to this Taco Mama location (second visit to a Taco Mama in all). My mom and I both ordered nachos - grilled chicken with lots of veggie toppings for her, and shredded chicken with rice, refried beans, and all the cheeses for me.

We were shocked when they brought our plates out!! They were filled to overflowing! We laughed and said that the person who took our order should have warned us about the size when we ordered - like, really examine your post-meal plans before you order nachos here - you will be fill to the point of miserable!! Haha!!

No, in all seriousness, the nachos were fabulous!! And this is probably very random, but the fountain Diet Coke is spot on!! Like, some fountain drinks aren’t mixed correctly, but these are perfect!!

We love Taco Mama! My daughter had the Veggie Mix Nachos. It was enormous! It can easily be shared among 2-3 people. I had The Judge Burrito Basket. It was delicious! Taco Mama salsa is definitely my new favorite salsa.

Great spot to grab lunch. Had the Hippie Fisherman with shrimp with the street corn as a side, and some extra chips and queso. All of it was great.

I like Taco Mama for several things. The burrito bowls, little tacos, the guacamole, and the Mercedes margarita. They use fresh ingredients, and have a wide variety of Tex-Mex dishes. I never feel bad about what I eat here.
However, both locations I have been in have been cramped and loud. Even the patio seating doesn’t seem to assist with the din and packed-in seating. It needs more space, especially considering its popularity with families...
Maybe we were there when it was super busy, but there wasn’t a line to order like other times I have been there. Great food, decent price.

It was packed and I can understand why. I enjoyed the food and the service. Both were excellent and even though they were very busy our food came quickly.

Very disappointed. I typically am pleased here but had a bad experience tonight. I called in an order for my son. I ordered the kids nachos with extra beef. I paid, took my order home, and then realized after getting home they gave me the wrong order. I had to return with the food to tell them they made a mistake. I was okay because I understand mistakes happen. I would be fine if I had just gotten an apology, but I was insulted when the woman offered me a card for a free side of black beans next time I order. Black beans have to be the worst side there is. I'm sure they have to throw out black beans at the end of the day. I don't want anything free, I just want what I paid for the first time. If you want to offer me a free side at least let me pick the side, not your left overs no one wants. Needless to say, that is my last purchase from toco mama. Please learn from this and do better to other patrons.

I began coming here as a spot for Hinge dates, but fell in love with coming here alone. I practically live at the AMC next door, and there's nothing better before a good movie than some tacos and margaritas. The atmosphere and staff are amazing, and the food never disappoints! ❤️
