A long time ago, in the bustling town of Austin, Texas, a man named Mike Rypka bought a food trailer and a red Vespa. His dream? To start a taco joint. Like all great chefs, he filled his first menu with more experiments than meals — and thanks to some trips around town on his Vespa, and overhear...

Torchy's is the best taco place in Austin. There are multiple locations and they all deliver great food. The Democrat is my go-to order, and the burrito is wonderful as well !
Huge tacos with some delicious and fresh ingredients , eat outside and make friends with the ravens, also THERE'S A TAKEOUT WINDOW DO NOT WAIT ON LINE INSIDE WOWOW!
The devilish imp reigns supreme over the Drag's taco scene, with inventive combinations that appeal to the masses and salsas that are like crack to the endorphin-deprived.
Just go already. Some of the best Telmex tacos money can buy, and a great balance of creative and classic, Dublin DP at the fountain and an awesome staff . Parking sucks, tho. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Such good tacos !! Handful of vegetarian options . Amazing queso and super friendly staff . We also got a sample of some deep fried cookie dough balls that are fantastic!!
Tacos . I mean, there's a ton to choose from, and they're all delicious. Try the democrat and the monthly special.
Every taco has a uniquely magical flavor, and with each bite you will feel your inner smile grow! You can't go wrong with the fried avocado taco .
This outpost of the local taco empire is one of our favorite places to grab a bite near UT-Austin.
One of my favorite places to get tacos ! Get the Baja shrimp . Brushfire is spicy , like get-me-water-now spicy .
If you're looking for an amazingly, greasy, delicious, absolutely-bad-for-you taco that will blow your mind ask for the Ace of Spades- not on the menu and guaranteed to ruin your diet!
Delicious! Highly recommend the baja shrimp and the brushfire!
Don't forget to always get queso when you go! Torchy's has some of the best queso in Austin! Even ask for them to make it a little less spicy if that fits your tastes!
Try The Democrat and Trailer Park along with a Dublin Dr. Pepper . Your life will forever be changed. Don't forget to top your tacos off with the delightful sauce. My fave is the diablo !
Once I saw the fried avocado taco on the menu, I had to have it! I don't know if I'll be able to go again & stray from it. Also, excellent chips & queso with a kick!
Old fashion chicken and beef fajitas tacos . The Maine root sodas are good too.
The fried avocado is off the chain! Best tacos ever.
Get the queso . If you order at the bar , you don't have to wait in line !
My favorite is the brushfire tacos ! Ask for it trashy. These tacos won't disappoint and the restaurant was just remolded. Looks great.
If ordering to go, order it "for here" anyway and they will load it up for you. You can always get a bag later. Otherwise, your taco will be puny because they try to wrap it up all nice and neat. :)
The soda choices are great! Chicken fajita taco was very good too.
Unbelievably and unnecessarily long wait (40 min for 3 tacos )... but they were absolutely tasty and very filling!!!!
They have a secret menu : order the Hipster :, guac blackened fish bacon cotija cheese plus some spice. So freaking good
Perhaps the most delicious tacos I have ever tasted! "The Democrat " taco was my first choice and continues to be my top pick! Amazing taco place .
Migas taco is the best deal everrrrrr and you can add anything you want to it! I always had potatoes :)
Get the queso ! Gives Kerbey Lane's a run for its money.
The food here is outstanding! There will likely be a line . This isn't Taco Bell so 'suck it up' and prepare to have you taste buds blown!
Everything is good here, damn good.
Wow. The Baja Shrimp taco is tangy and delicious!
When ordering Torchy's be sure to say you're eating there and not taking to go. They give you more for your money and stuff your tacos with filling more than they would if you were eating to go.
Everything I have had here has been awesome! ????????
Trailer Park Taco was Nice! "Make it Trashy" -- street corn is a perfect addition
Fried avocado taco ???????? I’m glad it still tastes great while city is on “lockdown “
Queso . Guacamole . Ranch hand taco (2)
You cannot go wrong with the green salsa . Just order it with anything you are having.
First place we went to eat in Austin...it did not disappoint! Get the Trashy Trailer Park or Fried Avocado tacos .
The queso is the best part.
Eat here at least once in your life. #bucketlist #whatsleftofmyTrailerPark @torchytaco
Don't forget to remove the wedge of lime before enthusiastically biting into your Baja taco .
You like salt? You like flavor? You like sauce? Well we don't have taste buds so here's a ton of it on your food
Baja tacos are a must
Baja shrimp taco is great, green chili pork was a favorite but has been way too dry the last few visits. Queso is a toss up you'll either love it or hate it.
The fried avocado taco is amazing for vegetarians and meat eaters alike!
The Democrat & Fried Avocado tacos are deeeelish! Jalepeno ranch also to die for. Great music , cool people, tasty iced tea .
I may say this is my favorite taco's place in the US, a Mexican say this :D
Their queso and guac are both to die for!!
The Skallywag is awesome, it's sweet and just little spicy , very impressed!!!
I am a fan of the corn . Ask for extra lime .
NEVER had a bad taco here. The Brushfire is phenomenal!
Call in or order online, it will save you a good amount of time during the busy hours.
Order something. Wait for something heavy metal-ish to play over the speakers. Headbang while you eat. Extra points if you can guttural-sing along to the music . Hail Satan! Read more
The Otto is awesome! The Doña sauce is fantastic, but not for the faint of heart. It's spicy enough that when I'm feeling stuffed up, I opt for that over decongestants. It's a delicious alternative - Matt Charnitski
So good. Some of the best tacos in Austin. Huge menu and super reasonable prices. Love it here. - Maddie
Fast service at this location. Not stingy on their portions and the Suaza margs are amazing!!! - Joshua Garza
You do not want to visit any other shoe store. This is the top of the line. The staff is excellent and the selection is amazing. A must stop if you visit Austin. - Social News Network
Great selection of toys, you’ll always find a perfect gift here! - Anders Mellbratt
The rotunda is stunning. I basically was able to just walk in after going through really quick security. The whole place was welcoming and beautiful! - Jackie Mann
