Twisted Trompo

On a night out in Dallas, we searched for unique places to eat.
This place popped up and sounded good. Basically, I can say everything was incredible.
The menu is actually quite open and flexible.
It is a build your own taco set up where you choose your tortilla, choose your meat, and then add whatever extras you want.
Multiple sauce options are available.
Also available are street taco varieties, tortas, quesadillas, and burritos.
After this visit, I would love to come back for their breakfast selections. As an added bonus, they have a full bar with bar seating. We stuck with build our own, and I can't help but order barbacoa whenever I see it.
We sampled six different tacos, each done to our requests.
We added the queso, and went for the loaded version (no description). Weather was nice, so we sat outside, which is a little rare in the heart of downtown. All I can say is: WOW! This is the best loaded queso I have ever had! I don't think I can even list all the ingredients.
There was so much going on in this queso that it's almost hard to see how they got the queso in there! It starts with base of barbacoa (not just boring ground meat), then guacamole, roasted corn, onion, peppers, tomato, what appears to possibly be minced potato (might be wrong), and even small pineapple chunks (not a guess, and yes this surprisingly works wonderfully)! As you can guess, there was no chance of anyhting left to take home. The tacos were all wonderful.
Pastor can be a little dry, but that's in the traditional preperation standard.
The staff was exceedingly friendly to the point that one of them apologized that he didn't get to the door soon enough to open it for me.
Unecessary, but nice. I also paid close attention the the Manager on duty, perhaps GM who was inspecting sections of tables and booths.
They were closely examined, booths straightened to be in exact alignment, and cleaned thoroughly.
Impressive to me and comforting that there is pride and attention to detail.
One unique note, there is a large, very tall wall over the drink machine that was full of a collection of beautiful candles.
Considering how high they were, I assumed at first they had fake lighting, but they don't.
Pretty cool touch. This is one of the most pleasant surprises I've had in a while, especially since we just dug on Google Maps to find something.
Hopefully this review will help you decide to try it.

Awesome taco options with variety of meats and sauces. Very good especially the twisted chips. There is a bar inside next to the food ordering section where they make solid margaritas! Price is good too for food:portion ratio. Good service. Clean.

Placed an order online for pick up; I ordered the Cuban torts, I’m aware that it’s a FF chain and this ain’t Miami but this was a bad spin to a 🇨🇺 torta.
The meat was dry and Not at all fresh or seasoned correctly.
The sandwich was soggy AF and messy.
The veggies were hidden and bland.
Not to add that the fries had a sour after taste I stop eating them out of fear that they would give me a stomach bug.
Not wasting my money on this again.
