Thursday is 5 burrito day! Had a wonderful meal and the new addition construction doesn’t take away from the charm. Always love coming here with some great people who work there too

Great small place find. I was full from two tacos. The blackened fish taco was unique with a mixture of sauce and fish. I had a local beer. And since I had one taco left, you will be given a classic brown paper bag to go. While i was there there seem to be a lot of business people on their lunch break.

Great find that my family and I just happened to stumble upon on the way to a BBQ spot right next door. Decided to go here instead and did not regret it. Complimentary chips and 3 different kinds of salsa (my favorite was the black bean and corn salsa). Service was fast and friendly, food was absolutely delicious, and the price was amazing (60 for 4 with extra sides and everything). The staff was so great and friendly (they gave us so much cayenne ranch). One of our new favorite spots in West Ashley. 10/10 recommend to anyone and everyone!

Resteraunt was very clean & inviting. We are from Ohio & will definitely return next time we visit SC. Dillon, Jason & the other waiter which we didnt get his name were all outstanding!!!

Absolutely loved it, me and my friends go a lot, I almost always get the shrimp taco and the green tea shot. Blueberry margarita was great! They also have a lil chips and salsa bar, jalapeno salsa is excellent

The Taco Spot is a small establishment, part of a strip mall, and easy to miss due to the traffic pattern in Charleston. If you are in the mood for tacos, the menu has a great mixture of traditional flavors and some original recipes known as “Dealer’s Choice.” They have a bar as well, but I only experienced the food. The steak was well-flavored and paired very nicely with the house salsa. The blackened chicken was delicious as well with just the right amount of kick. Take the time to read the front of the menu. I appreciated the origin story, and it inspired me to hear another business owner’s success story. The Taco Spot is not a “can’t miss” destination when visiting Charleston, but it is very good to satisfy a Mexican craving!

Awesome local place. You have to come get queso and some guacamole. The staff is awesome so say hi to the bartenders. It's the anchor of the neighborhood for 10 yrs.

Between the Food, the service nd the atmosphere I don’t know what to rave about most!!! I stumbled on to this place about 2 months ago nd boy am I glad that I did this has become my favorite go-to spot when I get my Mexican cravings which I’ve been having a lot of lately they also have a “Sauce Table” filled with different flavors of different hot sauces at all spice levels that you can add as much sauce as u need. PS: they have parking in the back of the building if you don’t like the size of their front parking space
