We had heard very good reviews from a reliable source for Scarborough food, so we were expecting it to be quite good. It was great! Huge bowls and filling. The Barbacoa Pulled Beef Bowl was outstanding, filled with tender beef, rice, beans, veggies, and more. Great for a lunch or dinner. The eating side is clean and spunky with the signage. Go check it out - well worth a visit or three.

Had a great experience at Nacos Tacos! The food was excellent across the board—the tacos were truly amazing, and the burrito bowl was filled to the top and very filling. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The only minor downside was the nachos with cheese; they were served plain in a bag without any dressing/toppings, which was a bit of a letdown compared to the rest of the meal. Still, the quality of the other dishes makes this a place I’d definitely recommend!

We didn't know quite what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised. While the birria could have been a little more tender, for the price the portion was generous and the consome very tasty. The chips and guacamole were also a generous portion and very fairly priced. A nice selection of Jarritos, too! The washrooms are down some reasonably steep stairs, and they were cold. Side note - I have never before in my life seen a restaurant toilet with a bidet spray hose.

Narcos Tacos in Scarborough is a fantastic spot for anyone craving delicious chicken tacos that burst with flavor in every bite. The ambiance is warm, modern, and welcoming — perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. But what truly makes this place stand out is not just the food, it’s the amazing service, particularly from the employee Manal. From the moment I walked in, Manal greeted me with a bright smile and an incredibly professional attitude. She ensured that my order was taken correctly, answered all my questions with patience, and made sure my food was prepared fresh and to the highest quality standards. Her attention to detail and genuine care for customers are what make the experience at Narcos Tacos truly special. It’s rare to see someone so passionate about their work and dedicated to providing top-notch service. Manal’s hospitality and cheerful personality added a personal touch to the entire dining experience. She made sure everything was perfect from start to finish, and it’s because of her that I’d love to visit Narcos Tacos again and again. Great food and even greater service — thanks to Manal, this place definitely deserves recognition!

Had a great dinner at Narcos Tacos. Ordered the Birria tacos, carne asada tacos and the loaded fries. The tacos were delicious with fresh ingredients - taste and flavours similar to what I’ve had in the west coast. The fries were okay. Typical cheese sauce and toppings. Will return for more tacosssssss!!

Birria tacos were amazing!! Must get item. However the fries supreme was underwhelming, fries were a bit soggy from the cheese or something. Definitely recommend this place. Will return for their tacos!!

Came back to Narcos Tacos after a long time and it did not disappoint. I had the birria tacos and they were amazing. They’ve also upgraded their packaging which look great and make everything easy to take out. The place has plenty of seating to dine in, and there’s ample parking in the plaza. Staff were really kind and inviting. The place is really clean and comfortable have your meal there. Definitely one of the best taco spots in the city. I’ll definitely be coming back again!
