Taco Escobarr

I’m not one to leave reviews normally but I have to say this place from their drinks to their food is unbelievably delicious. The staff were super friendly and I loved the unique decor inside. I live about an hour away and will be more than happy when I make the trek back there. Worth every penny!

My sister, a friend, and I went to go for outdoor seating around 5:30pm today. They had no 3-4 person tables available outside and we would prefer to eat outside because of COVID. They took down my name and number and said they would call me when the table was available. We all went back to our dorm on Oak Street and waited in the common room for them to call. At around 6:25 we decided to go there and see what was taking so long. We got there and a 3-4 person table was empty. They then gave that table to a different group of 3 people. So I said politely “Excuse me, you were supposed to call us for that table when it was free.” She acknowledged me and then proceeded to give them the table and asked what my name was. I gave her my name and her excuse was “We tried to call you multiple times but no one picked up.” I had NO missed calls and my volume was up the ENTIRE time. I even showed the waitress my calls AND missed calls and my last call was from Wednesday afternoon. So I asked her if she’s sure she called the right number. She read my number back to me (10 digits since I’m not from Maine so it’s a different area code) and I said yes, that’s my number. The waitress then told me that they indeed did call the right number (even though I showed her that no one called me) and said she’d put me back on the list and asked for alternative number. My friend gave the waitress her number but instead of leaving we decided to wait outside. At around 7:00pm we said it wasn’t worth the wait and left to find other food because we were so hungry. At 7:13pm Taco Escobarr called my phone number (and I even looked it up on Google and matched it, so it WAS them) and said nothing. There was a lot of background noise and it sounded like someone was breathing on the other end of the line. I said “Hello?” THREE times and they hung up. And they NEVER call the alternative number/my friends number ONCE. I’m extremely disappointed and frustrated with the restaurant, the waitress, and the service. I never post reviews but I am so disappointed and frustrated that I felt the need to post this. Their food is decent and all we wanted was Mexican food and outdoor seating. I will not be going back for a while. From now on, we’ll just be ordering takeout and eating it at a nearby park instead.

Miya is professional, precise and very personable! We went on a night/weekend that was very busy and many ingredients were sold out. Yet the food was phenomenal. Drinks? Even better. I highly recommend this place. 6/5 will be back

Not the best taco I’ve ever had, but I didn’t really expect to come to Maine and find good Mexican food. The salad and black beans that they serve with the tacos are amazing though. Good job on that!

One of the worst burritos I have had in my life. The fish was grey and dried out. The slaw tasted like it had sat out on a counter too long. Tomato’s had an acrid sour taste. I can’t believe I spent money on that. Did not even include chips to wash out the terrible flavor. I vow never to go here again. Normally I don’t write reviews but had to to save others from disappointment.
