Excellent experience, we had five courses starting with corn chips and guacamole, baked corn, and sweet potato wedges (TRY THESE). Ordered three tacos each, all were flavoursome with a great touch of fresh salsa and lime. The churros were nicely crisp on the outside while still soft inside.
Incredibly impressed!! The fusion of flavours at Tacocat is out of this world and it's great to see culinary imagination combined with awesome customer service, all brought together to result in such a terrific outcome. Each dish that was presented last night was to savour and highly recommended, with special reference to the loaded con carne nachos which were absolutely divine - it is hard to believe that a bowl of nachos can be so flavoursome and remain so crisp throughout the meal - not one of the corn chips turned out soggy by the end of the meal. The regular size that I ordered was perfect for one person.
The soft shell crab taco was great, leaving a very warmish tinge in the mouth, but the special taco of the week (a kangaroo taco) was to die for and should be added as a regular item to the menu!! This taco was a work of art and an amazing blend of barbequed meat with citrus crumb that was incredibly thought out by the chef and crew.
Will certainly be back and am incredibly surprised that this venue is not more popular.
Love me a taco, they can really hit the spot. These are good & the combinations are new which keeps things interesting BUT i found the beef one a bit dry and in my opinion the price a bit exxy.
Fantastic real Mexican with a twist, what a delicious playful menu. Grasshopper tacos, Beef Pho tacos & an incredible tequila dessert. Yum ! Will be back
Drop everything! How have I not been here yet?? The food is outstanding! The service - outstanding!!! Everything.... outstanding!!! We all loved it, and cannot wait to be back!!! Highly recommend the prawn taco!! Oh and ceviche is so good! Do it!!
If you think you’ve tried it all when it comes to Mexican food in Melbourne, then think again. Tacocat is Windsor’s newest taqueria, serving Mexican-inspired street food but not as you know it. Tacocat is located at 118 High St, Windsor in the space formerly occupied by Korean café 9 ¾, just a block or two from Chapel Street. Step inside and you’ll find rustic style tables, an open view into the kitchen and a Day of the Dead inspired wall mural painted by Melbourne Graffiti artist, Awes, of local studio 90 degrees.
Taco cat offers authentic Mexican with a slight Asian twist at extremely reasonable prices and high quality. We thoroughly enjoyed all dishes we tried- the nachos were delicious and generous in toppings. The corn was tasty and had a lovely combination of toppings. The raw tuna taco was fresh and light. The mushroom taco was extremely flavorsome. The Japanese chicken taco was crunchy and great. Our only hesitation was on the beef pho taco which although presented beautifully (like the rest of the food) seemed extremely chewy and dry. We can't wait to see them develop their alcohol and dessert menus which we assume will make them even better. We believe that good Mexican is hard to find in Melbourne and Taco cat has done a great job!
Sadly On our visit the Tequila bar was not yet open as Licences were not finalized, that is ok though as it was BYO and water was also supplier. The tortilla chips were tasty and quite buttery deliciousness! To accompany this was 2 salsas one red and one green! the green was so nice full of spice, freshness and it made you want to go back for more. The red one was chopped onion and tomatoes that tasted like they were soaked in something which was nice but i think if it was a bit more saucy it would be greatly improved. The Corn, Looked great and tasted as good. 2 small pieces ideal for sharing! Full of great flavors sauce and texture.
Went on Tuesday night with a group of friends and the food was absolutely delish!! Between us all we had nearly every starter and taco on the menu and loved everything...special mention to the Grasshopper Taco! Even better was the fact it was 2 for 1 Taco's and BYO so on top of the great food was even better value. Will definitely be back soon!
I love seeing new exciting street food style eateries opening about the place. This is no exception! Speedy service and friendly staff get a tick as does the decor and menu. I am always nervous heading out to eat because I am on (and not by choice) a low FODMAP diet so no wheat, gluten, fructose, sorbitol, mannitol or lactose. The menu was transparent and ingredients were clearly listed which put my mind at ease. I had the Pho taco on a Tuesday night so thats 2 for 1! Very tasty. I also had the sweet potato twice cooked chips which were awesome. I would definitely recommend popping in for a meal that wont break the bank. I look forward to trying more of the menu.
Excellent place for tacos. They definitely have some interesting fusion tacos which make for a very interesting meal.
Be warned though, it can get pretty pricey. You would probably want to head over on a Tuesday for the 2 for 1 deal if you want to try out everything
This place is an undiscovered gem ... Great Tacos and very friendly service.
The tacos are not the typical you would find elsewhere.
Definitely the ceviche is a favourite!! Great DoD artwork with TacoCat!!!
Absolutely delicious food, served by friendly staff. The taco combinations were unique, well presented and tasted amazing. Great cocktails too with fresh churros to finish. We'll be back!
Really good tacos and great service! I really enjoyed the fish and grasshopper tacos but the others were super good too - Try it!
Bloody awesome!!! The food, service and ambiance is fantastic... perfectly tucked away from the madness of chapel, this is a wonderful hidden gem that can't be missed!!
My new favourite local. Delicious, creative Mexican food, great venue and absolutely lovely staff.
