5/2/07 -- OKC, OK - I'm one that loves to eat at those out of the way tiny places that most people wouldn't bother to stop at.I find these mom and pop type establishments are a real treat and the atmosphere often cannot be beat.
South Oklahoma City is literally overflowing with small locally owned restaurants.
One that I recently discovered is TacoVille.
Locally owned, I believed they opened in 1967, and have been serving up South OKC's best burritos, tacos and their signature hot sauce ever since.
I was introduced to TacoVille a couple of months ago, by my mechanic, and have made it a regular spot for a quick lunch.
TacoVille is located in a strip mall area in SW OKC where Newcastle Road and SW 29th intersect; 3502 Newcastle Road to be exact.
Looks to have originally been a small convenience store as an entire wall still contains a long row of refrigerated coolers full of soda-pop and beer.
I personally prefer the hard tacos and the burrito supreme. Their hot sauce is unbelievable and should be used with caution.
Speaking of caution; two words of warning.... One, the neighborhood is a bit scary (okay it's downright dangerous) and two, get there early as patrons tend to be lining up the walls at lunch waiting for a seat.
If you are ever in the neighborhood and your looking for an adventure, give TacoVille a try and you'll be hooked.
TacoVille Review:
Service: 4/5 (You order/pick up at the counter, but the mostly female staff is great.)
Atmosphere: 4/5 (Laid back, loud and packed with blue collar types.)
Food Quality: 4/5 (Hey, it's Mexican fast food at its finest.)
Price: 5/5 (Most everything on the menu is from $.99 to $3.00.)
Overall: 4.25/5
Recommendation: TacoVille is a great hole in the wall Mexican fast food treat.
