Good food. I love Mexican food but normally not a fan of refried beads. This place I even ate all the refried beans. So tasty!! My wife had the enchiladas en mole and it was delicious. They claim 27 spices and they weren't kidding. So tasty and fragrant. I had the enchilada taxco and ate it all including the aforementioned beans. Ver ... read more

Great spot in downtown Sycamore if you're looking for some authentic Mexican cuisine. The staff is super friendly and hard working, the food is delicious and the atmosphere is fun and vibrant with all the traditional decor. I ordered the Tacos de Barbacoa; the meat was tender and everything was cooked to perfection.

Taxco is not our go to, not because the food is not excellent, however, things do take a bit of time in their restaurant. We do like the food, and GOP when we can. We do recommend, just realize you till be there a bit longer.

The service was phenomenal! I got three refills of chips and salsa and the server was always there to refill me even though I was so needy. She also brought me hot tea, and offered a variety.

Their salsa is great. I have not gone there very often. My latest visit I had the enchiladas. The prices were very reasonable and food was great.

Outstanding food, great service, nice atmosphere, horrible restrooms. Dirty, small, really suprised because the restaurant is very nice. They seriously need remodel and expand the restrooms for a restaurant that size. But if you don't need to use the restroom, it's a really great place.

Best queso I've ever had, meal was delicious and service superb, quick and efficient.

Anna Toltzman via google.com - Oct 30, 2021

Best advice I have is to order the guacamole. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but don't miss out on the guacamole.

If you like quantity and quality and aren't so concerned with ambiance, this is the place! Really nice Mexican with no cheese whiz. Flavors are spot on, not hot but nicely spiced and reasonably priced as well! Wish it wasn't so far from us, but worth the trip once in a while. The interior is tired, hence the 4 stars...

We are from the border of Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico, so we are fairly knowledgeable about Mexican food.

I said no cilantro and they left it out of the guacamole. They didn't take the sauce off of my main course. When the server apologized, she said she didn't know it was an allergy. If I keep on saying no cilantro, why would you assume it's okay to leave a sauce with cilantro on my dish? The manager reviewed things with staff and mak ... read more

Good! Ordered the chiles rellenos with veggies. They didn't have nopales so we mixed the mushrooms from the tacos de hongos dish in with the squash, corn and onion filling and it turned out very good. Just forgot to pick up limes for the salad.

By far the best margaritas in the area. They use good tequila and the have specialty margaritas that taste amazing. Especially the cucumber one. They have a great vegan/vegetarian menu selection. The tofu tacos taste exactly like chorizo and the vegan rice is really good.

Just love this place! Excellent, true Mexican cuisine in a comfortable, homey environment. The owner or greeter visits every table each night and if you are a regular, eventually knows you by name.

Taxco has not skipped a beat since all of this Covid craziness has started. We've ordered multiple times and they never disappoint.

Hit and miss on service, however the food is always excellent. If you do go for lunch, make sure you have ample time. Despite the minor service issue, we do come here regularly.

I tried the vegan cauliflower ceviche tostadas. They were very kind and accommodating on the phone, and substituted soft tacos for the tostadas.
