Port Fonda

Found this place walking down the street. The smell coming from it was amazing. We went in and the staff was amazing. They explained the bottomless bloody Marys. This is a must try for Mexican food. The food has so many flavors and spice. If you are unsure they gave great recommendations. This place is now on my list for when I come to KC. The atmosphere is fun and energetic and modern. Better than anything I have had in Houston and I have tried a lot. Best Huevos Rancheros I have ever had.

Excellent restaurant with incredibly tasty food, wonderful ambiance and good service. A testament to everything that’s right about Kansas City cuisine. The staff was very attentive and welcoming. My order came very quickly. I really appreciate their innovative menu thats is very flavorful and has numerous options for vegetarian versions. As a diabetic I really appreciated I could get fresh cut raw veggies with seasoning instead of chips for example. I had the Chimichanga del Dia with habanero sauce and a habenero based cocktail. The menu is absolutely delightful. If you’re expecting a typical, boring Mexican restaurant with mariachi music or are afraid of flavor, don’t go. You’re not ready yet. If you want something tasty and unexpected, go to Port Fonda, you won’t be sorry you did.

I'd heard about Port Fonda some time ago and how good it was but had never had the opportunity to go until this last evening with friends. We kiddingly mentioned to the wait staff how we thought we raised the average age at least several decades. The service was very attentive and helpful when we had questions. Their menu was going through some updates so I wasn't able to get my tamale pie, however, my dinner was excellent. We were also able to get a few appetizers and drinks during happy hour which is worth it if you can make it before 6. I look forward to returning and trying out some new summer menu items.

Went for the green chile festival and absolutely loved it! Roasting Hatch green chiles live and live music - what is not to love?!! The food was on point, the margarita flight was delicious, great service, great vibe and we can't wait to come back again soon to try the rest of the menu! In our opinion, what a gem! You have to make the effort to come try it out for yourselves. I don't think you'll be disappointed!

This is a great spot in Westport with a lively atmosphere and great place to start the night. The food is some of the most delicious in Kansas City and has a James Beard semifinalist award to prove it. Would highly recommend the chimichanga and the pitchers of margaritas! Coming back soon!

The chips and salsa sampler was nice and the environment was cute, however, the margaritas are not made fresh and taste very syrup-like and sugary. Everything is aesthetically pleasing, but just not a 5/5 in the flavor department.

Some of the best Mexican food in the city. I love the roasted corn, and their ever-changing chimichanga is always to die for. Also check out their weekend brunch. They have the most delightful avocado marg on the menu currently, and the huevos rancheros was absolutely delicious. Always a hopping spot, and I can't recommend this place enough!

Place is overpriced, and not very good. Drinks were bad. If your going to serve a margarita in a water glass, at least make sure it taste good. Also when the customer has issue with the drink or food don't just say put sugar in the drink and sorry about the food, here's the bill.

Located right in the heart of Westport, this place has such a fun, welcoming vibe and a menu packed with flavor. We started with cocktails -- they have so many refreshing options and every drink we tried was delicious. The guacamole and salsa were fresh, vibrant, and full of flavor, and the street corn was creamy and absolutely addicting. The quesabirria tacos were cheesy, melty perfection and a must-try. We also had a variety of street tacos, and the fish tacos were my personal favorite -- light, crispy, and bursting with flavor. We even tried the pozole, which was hearty and comforting. For something different, the burrito and keto bowl were also fantastic and perfect for any craving. The staff was so friendly and attentive, and everything came out quickly and perfectly prepared. You can tell Chef Fernanda Reyes put so much love and creativity into this menu -- it really shows. If you're looking for the best tacos (and amazing Mexican food in general) in KC, you need to check out Taco Naco. Highly recommend! Follow on Instagram and TikTok for video review: NeyanVentures

I ordered delivery the first time I tried Taco Naco. I ordered the mole tacos, potato tacos and chips and salsa. I loved the mole but the salsa was what I actually went back for! When visiting the restaurant, we sat at the bar. There was only one other group there at the time. They were also sitting at the bar. It was too bright for me inside. It gave a sort of sterile feel. I again ordered the mole tacos. We got the chips and salsa sampler. All of the salsas were amazing. I even ordered the Roasted Fuego salsa to go. Yumm. My eating partner ordered the quesabirria tacos. They were gone so quickly that I am 100% sure they were delicious. The service was unfortunately not great. The server never even came to ask how the food was after it was delivered and it was difficult to get their attention to pay. The staff just stood behind the register near the door talking to each other without communicating with any of the guests.

Definitely love the birria tacos here! Like wow so much flavor. The ramen was pretty good, not as good as the tacos but still yummy. I finished the ramen, then dipped the tacos in the leftover brother AND the chipotle aioli and it was eliteeeeeee. YW.

Finally went here over the weekend and it was SO GOOD (and a nice escape from the cold outside). Still dreaming about a taco right now :') Didn't get a picture of my husband's burrito, but they definitely pack it in there! Worth every penny. Service was quick and I LOVED how cute the marg was. Will definitely be back !!

Quality has taken a nose dive in the last few months: they abandoned the burrito XL for a new version that is half the size and tastes mostly of tortilla, they made the sauce you pay extra for come in smaller portions, and their mushroom tacos are mostly just a sugary sauce without any filling. I used to be a regular here, but I'm never coming back.

Loooove this place to death. Past two times they screwed up my order. Same lady lol Food is so good and I come here pretty often.

Was told to visit Taco Naco KC recently for their fuego sauce! We really enjoyed the food. Our table tried the chicken birria, beef, and pork belly tacos. And all of them were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The chicken birria was tender and juicy, with a nice spicy kick. The pork belly was crispy and rich, and the beef was classic and satisfying. We also ordered the churros and queso on the side. The churros were warm, crispy, and just sweet enough without being too heavy. The dipping sauces were a nice touch. The queso was creamy and cheesy, perfect for dipping chips. We brought some home with our fugeo salsa. The whole meal was super tasty and felt fresh. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu. They have large seating indoor and outdoors and stay open late. The shop inside has some favorite treats and bottled drinks you can take home.

We grab a quick dinner here on a Friday night. I rarely come here to Westport. It's our first time at this location. We've been to their Overland Park location. Inside the restaurant it is open and clean. It's a cheerful place with bright vibrant color chairs and deco. We ordered at the counter and they will bring the food to the table. Service was fast and efficient. We didn't have to wait very long to get our food. I had the Baja Shrimp Chorizo and Carne Asada Chimichurri. Both very tasty and made fresh. They also have outdoor seating and a full bar inside.

Taco Naco in Westport?? Yea they ate. This my fave mexican spot rn hands down. Like I'm mad I didn't find it sooner. Food hit every time, ain't no misses. I had the shrimp & chorizo taco and the chicken al pastor. Both of em was fireee. Shrimp one had this crispy lil crunch and the sauce was delightful. The al pastor got that sweet lil pineapple on it so it's givin sweet n spicy in the best way...but pollo, no porque! The chips and queso?? Nah that queso was creamy af and the chips was fresh. Like not stale not too salty just perfect. I also got a spicy mango marg and baybeee it had me feelin real cute real quick. Came with a lil tajin rim and a tamarind candy on top. 10/10 just off vibes alone. Oscar at the bar held it down too. Cool energy, made sure I was good the whole time. Def comin back. Might bring my man or a bestie. Might not. Either way I'm finna eat good.

We came here after we had Frosty drinks next door. We order 2 breakfast tacos, a salsa taco and nachos. We were surprised to see how small the tacos were. The nachos were good. Hubs had a margarita which he said was good and I had a bottled lemonade. Hubs wasn't a fan of the salsa taco and said his breakfast tacos were OK. If we come back, we'll probably stick with the nachos.

This is a must-hit on every trip to KC. Love the area, love the food... I've never been disappointed. Get here!

This place is pretty decent. I came here with my friend. We were originally headed somewhere else, but they were too packed, so we decided to try this spot instead. The inside is super open, and you order before sitting down. What we ordered: I got a burrito with brisket and no beans (I'm not a fan of beans). My friend ordered four al pastor tacos. We also got a regular order of nachos. The burrito was just okay--lots of rice and meat, but not much else. There wasn't any salsa or anything to add flavor; it was mostly rice with a little bit of meat. I wish there had been more sauces or cheese to balance it out. My friend enjoyed the tacos, though. The meat wasn't too dry, which was nice. The nachos were a bit of a letdown. I know they're simple, but they could've used more toppings--maybe some veggies or extra flavor. It was just dry chicken with cheese and a few jalapeños. On the bright side, the horchata was really good! That definitely hit the spot.

Loved this funky, vibrant, taco place that serves some legit tacos and offers unique salsas! Coming from California, we were craving some tacos and we were glad we came here. We tried an assortment of tacos: Chicken Quesabirria, Baja Shrimp Chorizo, Pork Al Pastor, and Tecate Fried Fish. All of them were delicious. Even the Mushroom Mole taco was unique and delicious. They give you a bunch of salsa to choose from - mild to hot. The Peaunut Macha was fantastic - I've never had anything like it. The service was prompt and friendly. They even accommodated a request that wasn't in the menu officially - Queso con chorizo as a dip without the nachos. Overall we had a great time. Highly recommend!

Bring on the birria!!!! Best tacos and margs in Westport - and a unique spin on Birria Ramen. Counter order service, fast for when you need a quick but fresh and flavorful meal. Stay longer and enjoy their well crafted margs and definitely don't forget to sample the different salsas (my favorite is the creamy habanero)! Lots of windows and natural light so a great spot for happy hour or lunch with friends.

Mexican food is usually served quickly but this was lightening fast. I just went with a $15 rice bowl that was tasty. You order at the counter, get a number and they will bring the food to you. Not the largest menu I have seen but you can find something. An extensive drink menu is available.

I think I found the party. A bright and colorful interior invites you in. A fairly expansive menu of gourmet tacos and Mexican-inspired dishes and beverages gets you comfortable. A loud soundtrack blasting through the speakers and a super cool laid back staff makes you not want to leave. I liked the tacos - especially the Tecate Fried Fish.

Open, vibrant and busy environment. Lots of marg flavors plus top shop tequilas to add. Had the chips n guac, then quesabarrira, plus a delicious pineapple fuego marg. Wait staff was great and food came out super fast.

Love this spot! It is in Westport, so parking can be iffy depending on the time that you go. The ambience was really cute, the service was good, and the food was really good as well. Would come back!

We were very excited to try this place as there had been a lot of hype around it. There were 6 of us and 3 people actually enjoyed their meal. Personally, I had the chicken quesadilla and it was bland and greasy. The folks that had the burritos really enjoyed them. We are not in a hurry to go back. It may have been a lone experience because the place was packed and we've heard good things.

Oh Taco Naco, how I love you. Taco Naco is one of the main reasons I miss living in Westport because I constantly wanted to walk over for tacos. You place your order at the counter and then take your number to a table. The space is surprisingly large inside, and there's tons of bar stools outside. The food comes out hot and quick! They have desserts and other goodies that can be purchased from the small market area to the left inside the door. You absolutely must get an Agua de Pina for your drink - it's the perfect refreshing beverage! The tacos have super generous portions, and the toppings are fun and unique! The breakfast burritos are honestly the star of the menu for me. The delicious fresh tortillas really do it for me every time. A bacon and egg breakfast burrito from Taco Naco single-handedly saved my life during the heat of the Pride Parade in Westport. I can't recommend enough! There really is a reason why Taco Naco is consistently voted some of the best tacos in the KC area!! Taco Naco is close to the U-shaped parking lot off Pennsylvania, but you're mostly stuck with street parking unless you walk from the Westport garage.

Not sure why there's so much hype for Taco Naco... I didn't feel like the meats were that good, and the sauces were mid. Maybe I went on an off-day? I can see how people would really enjoy this place if drinking with friends in Westport, but I wouldn't recommend this restaurant for individuals really looking for good food.

"Authenticity for White People." The main demographic being catered to here. I will say the to-go containers of salsas are the standout, esp creamy jalapeño. The burrito bowl was bland and did not come with any salsa, which it desperately needed. Extremely expensive tacos. The local, authentic food trucks in Olathe would be floored

First of all the atmosphere here is great. Located right off the main road in Westport, it's a great place to sit outside and people watch or sit inside and enjoy the ambiance. They play great music and have a very inviting staff to welcome you. When you walk it the restaurant is very bright and vibrant with colors. There's a nice little retail area with snacks and other knickknacks you can look through while you wait which is nice. There's also an option to order on a large touch screen which I think was easier due to the visibility and a better menu layout than the board at the counter. One nice thing is that they bring the food out to you so you can sit wherever you want inside or out. The food was really flavorful with great options for everybody. I tried a few different soft tacos including beef, quesabirria and fish. My favorite was the quesabirria tacos. They were super tender and juicy and tasted great with the salsa and a splash of lime juice. The chips and queso were also great. Perfectly salted and the queso clings to the chips very nicely, not runny at all. They also have a variety of Jarritos which is one of my favorite drinks to have with Mexican food. The one downfall of our visit was the margaritas we ordered. There was some sort of miscommunication so we didn't receive our drinks until after I reminded them they needed to be made which was when we were almost finished eating. Once we got our drinks they were super disappointing. My passion fruit margarita was mostly tequila with hardly and flavoring plus it had tajin on the rim, which I hate, when I requested sugar. My friend's margarita was completely wrong. Straight tequila and no flavoring at all plus tajin on the rim again. Not what was ordered at all and poorly made. Overall it was a pretty good experience minus the drinks. I'd go back again for the food and maybe try the drinks again if a different bartender were there.

Taco Naco has the best and most authentic street tacos and overall authentic Mexican food I've had in a long time. The margaritas are a bit sweet for my liking, but the chicken and chorizo are amazzzzzing. You can't go wrong with a taco, quesadilla or burrito. The ambiance is fine, it feels like you're in a market in Mexico, and you order at the counter, but honestly that works great, especially if you want to be quick.

A vibrant, fun and delicious addition to Westport. Taco Naco is serving the basic Mexican staples of tacos, burritos, tostados, tortas...but with a bit of artisanal flair. My Carne Asada Chimichurri taco was topped with cheese and an avocado mousse; and my Shrimp Chorizo taco had a nice Chipotle Aioli drizzle. The side of elotes were the creamiest and cheesiest I've ever had. We also went with the 7 salsa sampler flight with warm crispy seasoned chips. The Peanut Macha salsa was one of the most unique flavors I've encountered - definitely will order it as my sauce of choice on all return visits. Counter ordering, but delivered to your table by friendly servers that continuously checked on us throughout our stay. I was frequently using Shazam to discover some great new music also. 5 stars on food, value, service and atmosphere.

The food here was just okay. The customer service was great and really fast. We ordered to go but the inside was a total vibe. I ordered a pork tostada and a chicken taco. I had 20 minute drive to my destination and the tostada was still crispy. I liked the pineapple relish on the taco as well. But again not a place I would rush back to.

This was really pretty great, and I say that even with the caveat that we ordered it from a delivery service, which doesn't always provide the best version of a restaurant. The tacos here held together really well, and were perfectly sized, perfectly portioned, and, well, perfect. I tried the al pastor which is sort of my gold standard, as well as a baja shrimp taco that includes chorizo and a chipotle aioli. That one was good, but decadent; I'd compare my order to getting a sushi order where I got a few simple ones (comparable to maki) and one decadent one, like those rolls with fried bits and cream cheese. Their chips and guac were tasty and also well portioned. We have another spot that we order from and sometimes it's an almost literal thimble of guac, not the case here. We also ordered a side of verde salsa that was great. Nothing not to like here, and even though I haven't been in, I think this is a spot that's earned some time in the rotation.

This place is local but seems like a franchise. I'm from Alaska and we have some good taco places but this was by far the best I've had in KC. I appreciate the workers honesty by saying how the burrito was good and recommended a different place for the tacos I initially wanted. She lowered my expectations and the carme asada burrito turned out better than I thought. 8.5 out of 10.

I happen to stumble in here with my friend because we love tacos. My over experience was amazing the staff was knowledgeable, personable and friendly. Food: all my food was really good the only thing I didn't really care for was the tecate fried fish taco there was nothing about it I like. All food items are picture's except the chicken Al pastor which was really good. Drinks: the spicy pineapple margarita was good and I had frozen swirl drink also that was pretty good.

I came here for a quick bite with a friend and was pleased surprised! I would say everything is fairly priced and would come again to try more menu items. Food: I got a chicken tostada. It was a bit dry for me but still delicious! The drinks were really good too. I recommend coming for happy hour. Service: The employees were nice and helpful. They were always cleaning tables and making sure you are doing good! Love Ambience: super cute vibe and esthetic! Really inviting atmosphere.

What boring folks do on Tuesday, is a weekly outing my family posts on TikTok. We reviewed TACO NACO KC in one of our outings. It was fabulous, we review tacos at a different Mexican restaurant every week and Taco NACO KC has been our favorite. They fill the tacos with fresh ingredients. We got one of each style they had.

I am not sure how I feel about the dinner I had tonight. It wasn't bad. But I am not "wow" by it either. My friends ordered a few tacos, and they said it was "a-okay." I got the chicken quesadilla because they only have corn tortilla. And I prefer flour tortilla. My quesadilla was soaked in oil, and the chicken was a bit bland. The salsa came with the quesadilla was also bland. It was missing that "kick" I am used to other places. Service was quick and friendly. We did not have to wait long for food to come out. And they all thanked us for coming in a we were leaving. I think this place has a lot of potential. I will come back to try out other items.

I d been hearing so many good things about this spot. So when they took over the former port Fonda space, I was excited that it was now close to me. Reasonable prices for tacos. I wasn't very hungry so I only ordered a couple of items. One was the Best Fish taco in the city. Yep. Hands down. The tater tots were also very tasty. Zoe our bartender was very knowledgeable and super friendly. Actually all the staff were friendly. The bar has more than 30 tequilas. They also have mezcals and other popular spirits. This spot is bright and cheery - and offer booth, table and bar seating. This is a great addition to Westport. They have a good Happy hour.

Wow!! The food was incredible here! We loved the chips & queso, and I went out of my normal comfort zone and tried their special - the Brisket Quesabirria Tacos!! We loved the ambiance - music, tables, etc. too! Food came out so quickly and we couldn't be more pleased.

Another week, another carryout issue. Might be time to fix the pickup system you have in place. In today's episode, my girlfriend placed an online order that ultimately had to be remade. When we arrived to pick it up, apparently someone else had made off with it. My previous issue with TN was that someone merely pointed to my order rather than handing it to me. Seems that's still happening. This is a simple fix. Make everyone coming to retrieve carryout orders check in, check the ticket and HAND them their order.

It's a quiet little hole in the wall that of you blinked you would miss it. But the food is amazing and the people are very friendly. I was not disappointed in the least. I will be coming here again. Very fast service.

food was dismal. soggy nachos, loaded but not well balanced. Cheese was generic canned velveteeta spread. Quesadilla floppy and not crisp filled w dry chicken. When I called I was offered 4 weak words then put on hold until I finally hung up.

I was hopeful that this location would be just as good as the OP spot and it definitely was. I wish I would have gotten more pics of the space because it is just so fun and inviting. I love that they still have the little storefront. Order at the front and they bring it to your table and everything came out pretty quickly. We were there for breakfast, but couldn't pass up the tacos. I highly recommend the pozole. They definitely don't skimp on portions. OK

Just Stopped By Here To Get A Drink. It's Pretty Early But It's A Calm Cool Vibe. Oscar, The Bartender Is Super Cool And Was Willing To Answer All The Questions I Had. Would Come Back Whenever I'm In Town And Try Their Food And Get More Drinks!

I tried the brisket quesabirria tacos and life feels worth living now. That's the only appropriate way I can describe how good they were. You really do eat with your eyes first. Everything from the food to the interior was so vibrant and colorful and it was a very warm and welcoming environment. Very nice staff and my order was ready very fast!! I'm already ready to go back.

Cute location and clean store. Food selection was large and service was fast. Food was hot and fresh. We will be back. Little pricy for what it is since it's a self serve restaurant but food was tasty.

Lots of Mexican food choices, tacos were well served, good salsa's variety, crunchy chips and cold beer, what else could you ask for a taco joint!!

For Valentines, we went to Taco Naco in Westport. I love that they added Valentine's balloons and roses in mexican coke bottles to their already colorful aesthetic for the special day. They are a counter service spot offering a fresh, modern take on Mexican food and are known for their street tacos. Usually I get their Santa Fe bowl but to make it an extra spicy Valentines, I got the salsa sampler. We had fun trying every single salsa from mild to VERY spicy. It was serving... feel-the-burn. With my favorite salsas being the Cantina Roja and Tomatillo. Thankfully we had delicious palomas and margs to cool off and tacos for our main meal.

stopped by here while enjoying the westport art show. really good margaritas, nachos were okay i don't believe they were worth the price just kinda of expected more than cheese, sauces, and brisket. they were very filling though. i'd definitely go back to try those birria tacos because my boyfriend loved them!

Very clean restaurant with freshly made Mexican food. Tried the brisket tacos, salsa and queso dip. Very good, but tacos were small. Went to the late happy hour from 9p-11p and drinks were cheaper. Service was friendly and food arrived very quickly. They have various Mexican foods, salsa and other items for sale as well. Inside and outside dining available. This place is definitely worth a visit.

I had the best bar service from Kat this taco Tuesday! Taco Naco is the Westport spot that I had no idea was there. Thanks, team!

Maybe the best tacos of my life, and I'm a taco fanatic. Absolutely fantastic Conchita Pibil. I would eat here every day if it was closer!

Very cute taco shop. Got three tacos and an agua fresca for about $20. Salsas are nice and wait time was very reasonable. Not the best street tacos I've had but I'd go back again if I was near here.

We just moved to Westport/North Plaza and are slowly checking out all the restaurants within walking distance--this place was near the top of our list of places to try and it did not disappoint! The woman who took our order, the woman who made our drinks, and the woman who brought us our food were all friendly and fast. This is a counter service restaurant so it is pretty casual, but it was clean and busy but not overly so. We ordered one of each of their signature tacos except the ground beef because my husband is from southern California and a taco snob. All the tacos were good, but the pork al pastor and the brisket tacos were top notch. We also ordered chicken tamales, my husband liked them because the masa was silky smooth, I wanted more meat. My frozen mango margarita was gorgeous and delicious and they had an IPA on draft so the hubby was happy too. We sat outside at the little bar that overlooks the street for top notch Westport people watching. We both highly recommend this place & especially the mango margarita, the pork al pastor taco, and that brisket taco--they were soooo good.
