Want a variety of tacos, this is solid fusion taco choice. It’s unauthentically American on purpose.

We ordered the fried fish, chicken and pork tacos. At first the food looked great, colorful and with many different veggies. However, we immediately discovered that the temperature of the tacos were way too cool. Especially the fried fish and fried chicken taco, apparently they had been cooked for a while. We finished the corn at last, and ironically it was still warm. Also the tortilla was way too dry. I won’t say this is the best taco place in St Louis as mentioned in some reviews. I’ll recommend Mi Rancho nearby if you’re looking for some real Mexican foods. I wanted to give 4 stars, but I really value the quality of foods.

The Jodhpur tasted good! The combinations including pieces of fruit were unique and the prices were affordable. Fried avocado was yummy. There weren’t as many vegetarian options as I expected. The service was very friendly and chill but rather slow, though it was busy. I enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere on the nice day I went.

Loved this place. First of all the staff is super friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious and you could tell how fresh the ingredients were and the care that goes into the preparation. They also had some of the best margaritas I’ve ever had. Will definitely be back.

My first visit to Taco Buddha started so-so and improved with the tacos.

This is my favorite taco joint in STL! I went for the first time last night, and although expensive, The tacos were worth it. They’re fancy pants tacos. Unique and creative recipes and they’re beefy tacos too so tasty and satisfying. The one that stood out the most to me was the Nashville. That one was super tasty.

So I sat outside because the weather was kinda nice today. But I instantly hated the choice because of all the flies though they try to combat them with these nifty looking fly fans. It’s just not enough to keep the flies from swarming you. I ordered the Baja fish tacos and del Rio and avocado one. The Baja Fish saved the day of this whole experience being a nicely batter fish with a cool lil sauce. The del rio has some good seasoned brisket but everything else was rubbish. To top it off they put this unripe avocado slice on the taco that was as hard as an apple. Just nasty business. The guacamole was really good tho.

My wife and I chose to come here after I’d been reading about it for awhile. Not disappointed! We are already talking about what we will get next time.

Very atmospheric “sidewalk” taco joint. The food was amazingly delicious. Loved my margaritas. If you like street corn, get theirs. It was delicious.

Austin in St. Louis is the best way to describe Taco Buddha, which is more than a welcome addition to the metro area. Having spent more than $150 in a night and tried a few tacos/dips short of the entire menu (yes that includes two different pitchers of margaritas) I can say Buddha does it well but could be a smidge better.
