" I have mixed feelings about my recent visit. While the tacos did taste good, I felt that they were more on the expensive side for what I received. We had to wait a bit longer than expected for service, and while the staff was friendly, they could be more attentive. The place felt crowded and slightly noisy, which might not be ideal for those looking for a quiet meal. Still, I could recommend them for a casual bite. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Tasty Tacos was just okay. While the flavors were decent, I was disappointed with the meager portions I received. It felt a bit rushed with too many tables filled, leading to a noisy environment. I might try another taco shop next time, as some areas could use improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tasty Tacos has been my go-to spot for years when I travel to Des Moines! The tacos are authentic, and the fresh ingredients truly shine through. I love their crispy tacos best, but the service can be hit or miss depending on how busy they are. It's not fancy; it's a straightforward taco joint that knows how to deliver on quality and value. Definitely a keeper on my list! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time dining at Tasty Tacos, and I had high expectations based on the reviews. I ordered the chicken taco and was underwhelmed by the portion size. The taco was tasty, but I anticipated more filling. The service was ok, and it was quite crowded that day. Nonetheless, it’s worth trying for the unique tacos they serve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful experience at Tasty Tacos! Everything we ordered was bursting with flavor, especially the beef enchiladas. The quick turnaround on our orders was much appreciated since we were on a lunch break. The portions were generous, making it well worth the price. Plus, the bright ambiance made for a pleasant dining atmosphere. It’s definitely a must-try if you’re in Des Moines! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a fan of Tasty Tacos for years. They consistently serve up delicious tacos and enchiladas that make my mouth water. I appreciate that they are a local chain, focusing on quality ingredients without the filler that some places offer. However, I sometimes feel that the service could be a tad friendlier. Still, the food is what keeps me coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings after my recent visit to Tasty Tacos. While the flavors were good, the portion sizes weren't what I hoped for. The restaurant was bustling with activity, and it took longer than usual for our food to arrive. The staff was pleasant but could have been more efficient during peak times. I might give it another chance in the future for their famous tacos. " (*Curated Review*)
