If we are rating the tacos, absolutely 10/10 - they were damn delicious! For some reason, any time I visit Miami, we never make it to Talkin Tacos! It's on the list, but time is never on our side lol. Last night I attended a party next door and decided to stop in around 10ish pm to finally give them a try before we partied. My bf and I ordered the exact same trio: Birria, the Caribbean taco & the Bang Bang Shrimp taco. First of all, WOW - all three tacos were some of the best we've had, and I don't give tacos the time of day in the US outside of Texas/Cali lol
All three made my tastebuds sing, but that Caribbean taco was different!!!! I have NEVER had anything like it: steak? plantain???? cotija cheese?!??? Omg a winner. I'm Caribbean, so I eat plantain on pretty much everything, but tacos?! Meats were tender and seasoned beautifully on all three. None of my tacos needed hot sauce/additional condiments - which says a lot.
Upon entering, there are two kiosks where you can place your own order for either dine-in/carry-out. They close late, so the vibe was very neon and bright colors everywhere. The only thing that held this review back from 5 stars was the actual cleanliness of inside. It was fairly empty when we ate with the exception of about 2 tables, but tables were not being consistently wiped down in between service. Our waiter came to wipe down the table when he saw me wiping down with napkins before we sat down. The tables could def use some upgrading.
Besides that, stellar tacos.
Perfect late night eats, overall! This area is pretty busy so expect street parking. Bring your appetite!
