Torchy's Tacos - Tulsa

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

Coming soon -- 33rd & Peoria. The old Hop Bunz location.

 

[Been Jammin]

Yummy

But they are very proud of those tacos.

Yeah, $4.50 for one taco. No chips and salsa included. Then they have those weird drinks.

 

[giddyup]

That spot is jinxed, hope they make it

Pucks was bad, food was not impressive, so I can see why it went out

I liked hop bunz

Can't remember what was there before pucks

Delta Cafe.

Torchy's is the real deal....even by Austin standards it's right there near the top of anyone's lists.

 

[TheRedSon]

There are only two reasons it could fail in Tulsa: (1) people in Tulsa hate tacos or (2) people in Tulsa cannot be trained to make tacos.

 

[SlingBlade]

Torchy's queso is the bomb diggity.

I didn't think Wolfgangs what bad. And from what I hear, the only reason it went out of business is because the Wolfgang group did not like their local investor and had no way to get out of business with him other than to shut it down.

 

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

It has seemed that location is hexed. Realistically, it is a VERY good location and Torchy's should flourish. I'd be a little worried if I owned Cafe Ole, however.

 

[squeak]

Coming to 2nd and Bryant in Edmond, too.

Maybe the problem with that Tulsa location is too many hills and trees?

 

[cactusjackosu]

Us rich folk in Edmond laugh at $4.50 tacos. That's a great price.

Meh, it's not near the top of my list. The queso is good, but I'd go many other places here in Austin before Torchy's given the choice.

If their tacos were a dollar cheaper I'd likely think they were better. I love torchy's but I do think they are overpriced. Wish we'd get a taco deli.

Agreed though. I'd rather do one of the trucks like las trancas, Pueblo viejo or Veracruz. Taco joint is pretty legit too.

I just prefer my tacos more traditional. Just give me some al pastor and cilantro on homemade tortillas and you can beat Torchy's any day for me.

 

[cactusjackosu]

Meat, white onions and cilantro on corn tortillas. Everything else is American shit.

 

[Ostatedchi]

Cilantro tastes like soap. pass

 

[mseabolt]

Only to you weirdos with the anti-cilantro gene

I love me some Torchy's but as stated before .. give me Al Pastor, onion, cilantro on a couple corn tortillas

 

[TheRedSon]

Cilantro tastes like soap. pass

And this is why you can't trust anyone North of Waxahatchie with a taco.

 

[HD Poke]

Gotta love the Dirty Sanchez taco at Torchy's...if nothing else just for the name

 

[kjcba8101]

Glad to see something take over that spot. Was not impressed by Hop Bunz. It seemed way overpriced for such average food.

 

[gipraw]

I like a little cilantro. Most places use a lot, and it sucks.

 

[SlingBlade]

I ask for extra cilantro...

 

[N. Pappagiorgio]

Cilantro should be banned.

 

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

I can see from this thread who can and can't cook.

 

[Ostatedchi]

Some of us are just more evolved than the rest of you. Coriander is like stinkbug soap.

 

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

Actually faulty genes.

A lot of folks think the same of Torchy's in Dallas with several other taco shops being better choices.

 

[Cowguy]

Newish place in Edmond called "Mattachine's". Tasty al pastor tacos for 1.50 each. Also fry chips up fresh.

 

[squeak]

Had Torchy's tonight in Norman. 5 tacos, kid's quesadilla, kids taco, chips, queso, 3 cokes, one F5. Total price, $50. Excellent but expensive.
