Taco Mama Tuscaloosa

Despite the long wait to be served—likely due to the restaurant's popularity—we had a wonderful and enjoyable lunch here. The staff were very friendly, and the food was not only reasonably priced but also delicious, with generous portion sizes. I highly recommend this place and would definitely return the next time I'm in Tuscaloosa.

Food was amazing. Everything came out quick. Nice atmosphere outside. I decided to try this place on a whim when I got done with my job early. It was close by and had good reviews. Since I travel a lot for work, reviews are important when it comes to picking places to eat. I want to add to the good reviews on this place!

Will be back on the next visit to see oldest. Ordered a shrimp quesadilla and it was the best one I've ever had. I'll definitely get a pic next time. We inhaled our food and drunk our drinks quickly.

My wife and I had quite the challenge finding a restaurant open on a Monday night in Tuscaloosa, which was surprising given that it’s a college town. Our first choice closed at 3 PM, so I wandered around until I spotted Taco Mama. It has a charming dive-like atmosphere, which I personally appreciated. The service was friendly, and I enjoyed a local IPA while waiting for my order. The food came out quickly, and by the time we got back to our hotel, we were ready to dig into our meals—a veggie burrito and a cheese quesadilla. Everything was delicious; the salsa tasted fresh, and the guacamole had a lovely cilantro flavor. We were very satisfied with our experience. While I’m not sure if I’ll ever return to Tuscaloosa, if you find yourself there and enjoy Mexican food with a welcoming atmosphere, I recommend visiting Taco Mama.

The food was excellent, and I don't have any significant complaints. The prices were somewhat steep, but I attribute that to inflation. Dinner for me and my young daughter came to $27, not including drinks. Despite that, it was a very enjoyable experience, and I had a great time. I highly recommend it—delicious food!
