Okay, I come here all the time. I support local restaurants rather than your chains (and you should too). There are a few Chipotle or Qdobas in the neighborhood, but then as like everyone else, they’re mission styled and it never sits right in your stomach… and I forgot to mention, pretty freaking expensive.
This is here why I’m giving a little promotion to Taco Bandito, it’s quaint, clean and you pay for just the right amount of food.
Taco Bandito
Where: 325 Eighth Ave
(Btwn 26th & 27th St)
Genre: Tex-Mex
Price Range: $
What was in it?:It comes with 2 flour tortillas, Mexican rice, black/pinto beans, sour cream, and salsa/salsa verde. Not bad right?
My usual is the Grilled chicken with guacamole.
How much did you spend?: I usually order from the lunch menu which everything from that menu is $5.45 and tax is somewhere $6-7, depending whatever you’re buying to drink too.
Within my budget?: Yes, I still think it’s a little pricey because most of the time I am broke, so I can’t really complain on being broke, well I can, just not here.
Thoughts: I like this place a lot. They’re quick, the owners make good conversation. The food is not that bad. Whatever you’re paying for, you get a good amount of food that is not going to give you problems at the end of the day. I only eat chicken, and it’s not bad; it could use a little more spices but how are you going to complain if they give you everything and under $8?
The only complain is that when you eat from the lunch special, it can be pretty messy, where you physically have to put the rice, beans and everything else into the tortilla.
useful information. It’s the best
