Early bite before a show downtown. Very nice spot, terrific service, and the tacos were creative and well prepared. We also tried the margaritas and the queso, both of which were excellent. Nice, relaxed vibe, and a great spot to try some alternative tacos. Highly recommend!

The new brunch menu is INSANELY good. Latin twists on brunch classics. The cornbread waffle served with the chicken & waffles was a borderline religious experience. Some really tasty drinks too. The Don Q pina colada was perfection - not too sweet. We're petitioning for brunch to happen more often than Sundays cause I'm not sure we can wait a whole week in between.

Great dinner. Just a random night we were looking for a new place to try and so my daughter, wife, and I decided to try KC Taco Company. Our server was fantastic as well as the food.

We had a fabulous time. Lee was amazing from the start, setting up our table to celebrate a friends birthday. The winter sangria was AMAZING. Can’t go wrong with any of the tacos. We will be back- no doubt!!

Wide variety of Tacos, the Korean BBQ was delish. Generous fillings. Be aware the parking lot behind the restaurant only takes cash (blame the city!) & gives no change.
