Twisted Taco is over by Town Center Mall on Busbee Pkwy just off of Barrett Pkwy.
The first thing you will think when you walk into Twisted Taco is that this is a large, national chain. But, you would be wrong. There are only 5 Twisted Tacos and they are in Midtown, Roswell, Kennesaw, Perimeter, and Buckhead. This means it qualifies as a Friday Firsts location because it is a local chain.
The menu offers a unique “twist” on classic Texas/Mexican food with a emphasis on their Twisted Tacos… go figure! I ordered the three taco meal (includes rice & beans) with a water for $9.49 before tip. My tacos were:
- Buffalo Bill: Taco with breaded chicken tossed in wing sauce. I love anyting with wing sauce on it but I felt that a little more wing sauce would have made this better.
- Crawfish: I had to try this since it sounded so weird. It was! While it wasn’t bad this was my least favorite taco of the three.
- Monterey Taco: Grilled chicken, jack cheese, crisp bacon, guacamole, tomato, lettuce, and ranch dressing… enough said! By far my favorite and I would order it again.
If you are looking for a new take on the old taco then with 19 options to choose from this is the place for you. Overall the experience was fine and the food was good. But, for lunch, nearly $10 with water and before tip is a little on the pricey side.
