They specialize in greasy food. Don’t come here and except high quality meals. Their burgers are very sloppy and they fall apart but I love the tacos. I couldn’t tell you what the meat mixture contains but I can say that it’s mysteriously delicious. For a small town, it suffices.

Stopped here on a whim with the family and went in the drive through. I ordered a, a couple of tacos and a fishwich. Yes i did say a fishwich. The burger was so so. Tacos were decent but the fishwich was absolutely horrid. As we were sitting in the drive trough you can see them popping food in the microwave. That’s where i knew it was going to be bad. The service was ok I guess but the food can not be overcome. I will not be going back unfortunately.

Worst burrito I’ve ever had in my life. Salty, over priced and empty. All you get is meat in a tortilla and I asked for everything. No beans, no rice, no cheese, no sour cream no nothing. Almost $ 8.00 for that and a soda which had a bug in the glass. I guess they charged extra for the bug and they charged me $.50 to use my debit card. I will never go there again.

worst burrito I ever had in my life. Beans had ZERO flavor. I’ve had tastier beans out of a can from the local grocery store. Not only that, whoever put it together, did not know what the heck they were doing. Could not wrap a burrito to save their life. One bite, and the bottom end opened up and the contents spilled out. One bright-​side, the onions inside the burrito were tasty.

Five out of five stars for a bargain burger and fries. For a few bucks, you can get yourself a nice cheeseburger with tomatoes, lettuce, onions, and spread as well as an extremely generous portion of French fries, and either a small milkshake or a large soft drink. Given that it’s a few bucks for some fast food, I couldn’t ask for anything more. To be honest, it tasted just like an IN N OUT burger to me. Yum!
In addition to their selection of burgers, Taco Grotto also has a wide variety of other food, including – you guessed it – tacos!
If a Kobe burger is what you’re looking for, Taco Grotto is not for you. However, come on by if what you want is yummy and generously portioned fast food.

It’s good ol’ small town fast food. A bit over priced, but if you’re in the mood for some good junk food, this will hit the spot. I actually prefer their plain burger with sauce over other menu items, and they actually have a decent selection of food. The patties are thin, but it’s packed with flavor because of that.
It’s been a tried and true stop for me when I’m in the area, and I recommend it!

Great only if you like salty food. I got two beef burritos and I think there was more salt that meat in them! The flavor was so so, but I just can’t get passed the sodium overload.
They have burgers to corn dogs to Mexican food.
No chicken either. I’m a chicken burrito guy so I was a little disappointed.

Only drive thru in town!
I think it’s owned by the same people who own Don’s. The burgers are pretty similar (thin, greasy but plenty of LTO and a sturdy bun). I think most of the meat dishes are a little greasier than la ideal (the other Mexican place) but they’re good. They double wrap their tacos, so you can actually split them up if you like.
We like to order 2 soft carne asada tacos and split them into four. The meat is juicy and they use plenty of cilantro to garnish. And the tacos are only about a buck each!
Best part, Diet Dr. Pepper on tap!
