I love the flavors, and love how transparent they are with their cooking. U see the actual ingredients cooking and it's always fresh. I love how u can customize ur box. Makes it suit everyone's taste. It's a bit slow service but that's the case in all beach or pool restaurants.

Quick taste:
we tried the burrito, good variety to fill it and the size is good. The only complaint Is the avocado portion small, tasteless and expensive... with 5 dhs I can buy 1 avocado, I won't have it again; anyway overall quality is good. Staff need a little bit more training to be more helpful and understand more the customer, maybe some of them need improve English skills, also about service experience.

So this is going to be a different kind of review. The review here is purely about the convenience of this place. It's difficult to find a decent meal delivered to your home. Dubai is more about the dining experience. But taqado does the trick with their healthy choices of the box. Chicken with guac and portobello mushrooms. That's all you need to keep you going at the office.

Perfect Weekend = Burritos and Tacos for breaky!!
All happiness depends on a good breakfast.
Do people who go to the gym to “feel the burn” know nothing of Mexican food?!?

A definite 5/5 for me, I must be guilty of at least one Burrito Box a week because I live so close! The burrito box is also technically quite a healthy option with a little carb (the lime rice is my favourite), protein and if you add a scoop of Avocado you're getting your healthy fats in too! This is also the best Taqado location in my opinion as the staff are always super friendly and quick to serve and you can take away your meal easily to sit right by the sea for lunch on the beach.

Great location, tried it for the first time after the beach with my friends. I did quite enjoy the burrito, especially cause we got to choose our toppings. The size is also good if you are a bit full but still want something, you can share it with a friend and you can both enjoy it.

I have always loved a decent burrito... But I have tasted better... However taqado has good quality and good taste ... And their medium burritos are hhhuuugggee..Lol as compared to the large... Along with the main dish we ordered a side of nachos.. and drank Mexican cola made from sugar cane and tamarind flavour... Which weren't that sweet but kinda low on fizz.... Being from Pakistan the size of the bottle reminded me of the old Coco cola /Pepsi bottles we used to get back in the day...
If at Kite beach decent place to eat amongst other options..

The Food at Taqado is consistently amazing, I always order the Box but have ordered the Burrito before, everything is awesome and the ability to customise your orders is great for the sour cream fiends :)

Taqado never fails, especially our son demanded order from here. Quesadilla and Torta are my favourites. Both Umm Suqeim and Tecom restaurants are good.

We got our free burritos through the Styck app since we reached the 12,500 steps required. So we decided to take it here in Kite beach branch (umm suqiem). The staff were very kind and approachable which I admire the most in every establishment. We ask them to choose the filling of our burritos since it was our first time to try it. Food turns out good. We chose Al fresco since we just finished running.. Best post run meal.. 😜😜

I've been to a few of their branches, but this branch is easily my favourite! Whilst I always get the same meal whichever branch is visit, the beef quesadilla, I feel like it's best served up here!

Also the servers here are really friendly and now that I pop by the place quite often and consider myself a regular, the servers really take extra time talking to me and making sure I'm comfortable and all is well!

It's probably not the best place to hit during the summer since its boiling hot, but take out should do at this location.

This food at this place feels authentic though it is a quick service restaurant.
The staff is friendly and make your food pretty quick; at the same time, it doesn't feel like they're rushing through to get it over with.

Their tortilla wraps are really good.

One thing which I did not personally find appealing is that they did not have much choice in vegetarian. Also, they have more varieties in beef and less in chicken.
Another thing, when you order the meat option, they give only one choice of vegetable. They should certainly have more.

Whatever you order though, the taste is great. I've also been to one of their other outlets and even that one was nice.

I took the meal in a box. It looked small and I was wondering if it would fill my stomach, but it was really filling.

They have a beverage called Jaritos. It's available in a lot of flavours. I had the hibiscus flavour. It was quite nice.

Disclaimer : I'm not a master on Mexican food, hence I won't comment on authenticity but rather the taste and services and other factors.

This spot is tucked into one of the rows of restaurants along kite beach. We were there during a recent weekend and decided to give the place a try just for churros.

I like the place and it's simple set up and quick turnaround. Some folks would say it's limited menu doesn't do justice, but honestly, you are in the beach and want to quickly grab a bite and walk around. This is a perfect option honestly. The decor was pretty nice and rugged. There is a small area to sit outside.

Service was friendly and pretty quick.

As for the food we had the churros. They have two varieties, chocolate and caramel. The chocolate comes in three sticks and cup of chocolate sauce whist the caramel is one thick stick with the insides full of caramel. I think they could have served more for the price they charge. Taste wise, I loved it. Crunchy and perfectly balanced with a good hit of sugar to go along with it.

We also tried a quesadilla (chicken). They have a variety of fillings for it (marinated chick, normal chicken and beef) as the marinated chicken was over, we tried the normal chicken with spicy filling. It comes with sides of sour cream, guacamole and a salsa. Once again, I think it's too expensive for a simple item as that. But it tasted great and I loved the spicy heat of if.

We also got ourselves a bottled lemon juice of sorts. Once again over priced I feel, but it was alright.

Overall, it's a good place with decent food, which is think is pretty Mexican in terms of taste (not an expert opinion), easy feed for a beach walk. But, prices could have been a bit better.

We got to this place with my partner in crime on cinco de mayo or 6th rather lol , and we were nicely surprised seeing they were giving away free burritos for cinco de mayo celebrations. 

The service was friendly and festive. Everyone was wearing a fake mustache or those wrestling masks /  hat and singing and cheering.. good spirit.

The service was fast and efficient although the place was packed. Great burrito, nice and filling, very soft and juicy. Love taqado.. 

Place is a lil small for a crowded beach day, and their drinks are quite limited but food is worth and healthy too.

I've mixed feelings about this place. I enjoy going to Taqado and I'm normally very happy with their food but for some reason I find this branch not that good. The ingredients aren't as fresh as normally are, but the service is good. This branch barely fits 2 people sitting in their indoor area but there's quite a few tables outside.

Had a good breakfast here a couple of weeks ago. Disappointed that they didn't serve decaf coffee. It's not table service however the food is hot and fresh and great quality no matter what branch you visit. The founder of not one of them is Mexican and is very passionate about his food, and this has shown in the brand which has gone from strength to strength.

I'm sure weekend its always busy for them.. I tried this place this weekend in kite Beach. Their nachos wasn't good though ..the sad part thy don't put melted cheese which very imp part in nachos... We paid 5 dhs extra for cheddar cheese. Their chicken quesadillas were yummy ..again if you ask for sour cream they will charge separate :( fast service so even if there is queue won't take time for ur turn to come. I will try their difc outlet next time for better taste next time ;)Nitin Bharwani

My friend & I were out looking for the "Perfect" cheat meal yesterday. Went down to Kite beach & stumbled upon Taqado Mexican Kitchen. The place was packed ! Perfect setting, small yet effective, you want a place to look full & crowded, that's how you attract customers. ;)

Stepped inside & got an awesome warm welcome from all the friendly staff. They were more than helpful to explain the items etc. We ordered a large (they have 2 sizes) Barbacoa burrito, topped with Spanish rice, guacamole, spicy salsa, sour cream, black beans and and and ! 3 x Taco's each with different fillings, sour cream, guacamole etc. The only downside was a Coke/Water is 20Dhs ! A bit pricy guys...

Anyway, back to the food, each & every bite was bursting with flavor, my taste buds went on a rock 'n roll mission ! I've got to admit, it's been a VERY long time since I've found a meal that actually hit the spot to reach 100% satisfaction level ! We will most definitely be back ! Keep it up !!!

PS: Perhaps add more spicy options - Jalapeños ??

As you would expect, the location is amazing. Great view of the beach and even though there is a shortage of tables, you're only seconds away from a beach side bench looking out to the azure Gulf waters.

The procedure for ordering burritos is pretty straightforward. Select a tortilla size matching your appetite and pick the toppings. Old complaints of staff shortages no longer seem to apply. There were 3 in place today and all were friendly and quick to complete the order.

The price is a bit high, but that's to be expected given the location. Rent must be mind blowing. Nevertheless, the guacamole AED surcharge won't enamour you to customers.

Now, down to the food. I loved it. The pulled beef was succulent and rich. The black beans, spicy salsa and guacamole were added in just the right proportions.

Simple and delicious in a great location: these are the ingredients that will keep me coming back, provided they don't price themselves out of the market.

Awesome location! I love the chicken quesadilla, mild version that comes with guacamole, sour cream and chopped tomatoes. The burrito is good as well but guacamole has to be ordered separately.

A very nice location on the Kite beach and great for all Mexican food lovers. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Have been here once in the evening and luckily it wasn’t very crowded. But as soon as we got out with our order, the place was brimming with people…I guess we were just plain lucky!!

There are different fillings to choose from, so both vegetarian and non vegetarian foodies can rejoice. We had the chicken and veg burrito. Both were equally good but the chicken burrito was a tad more delicious. After that we also tried the tacos and they were a bomb!! Absolutely loved it. The service can get a bit slow if there are too many people in queue. They also have drinks which are a bit pricey.

Also tried their breakfast at the Ripe market at Zabeel Park. The breakfast was just average. You can save half by using the entertainer vouchers.

Taqado's guacamole left me slamming my fists on the table because I couldn't control my ecstatic reaction to its flavor. It was divine! The outlet is a haven for Instagram, the serving station is innovative and it gets brownie points for the hipster ambiance. All this paired with the unbeatable venue that is Kite Beach, and Taqado wins this round of best bites on the beach.

Kite beach is definitely a great location for Taqado Mexican Kitchen. When weather is pleasant they will be full every day. We came over for quick breakfast and enjoyed our morning with Mexican eggs, Mexican omelet and beautiful view. The disappointment was that they don't serve coffee, but thankfully there are plenty of places around where you can order additional items. Food was ok, presentation was cute, service was quick and friendly. Not a bad experience.

Visited this place on a friend's recommendation. I must say that it didn't disappoint me as I rightly ordered a delicious Vegetarian Burrito. One must keep in mind what taste they would like, as that would result in a delicious burrito of your choice.

Taqado is located in a cozy corner at the Kite Beach making it a fun place to chill with friends, the outdoor seating is perfect for the cooler months, however it is a major drawback for summers which especially tend to last longer in this country.

However, I had a wonderful day eating out at this place.

I came here only for the churros and I can say I love the caramel one! Much better than the one I have tasted in one of my travels (not the authentic ones but the first taste I've had of churros).

Gonna go back to try the burritos but definitely will bring my own drink. Imported drinks they are selling are not pocket friendly at all.

Visited this place after a nice refreshing swim. Was starving with hunger and i opted to go for a chicken burrito. Loved the fillings inside and you get to choose your own fillings. i went with rice, chicken, pepper, tomatoes, cheese and extra guacamole and i asked them to make it spicy. the service was fast and it was decently priced. But they charged extra 5 aed for guacamole and that was too much. anyways loved the look of this place and they have outdoor seating. Loved the burrito. it was really filling. Loved the overall experience.

In spite of the blistering heat, I hauled a friend over to Taqado's venue on Kite Surf Beach. We ordered a single order of the soft shell chicken tacos topped with the works. While the tacos themselves aren't out of the ordinary, what kept me coming back for more was their choice of hot salsas on the side. Each of them truly lived up to their spice-level claims. I even ended up buying myself a bottle of the El Yucateco salsa in the end. 
We also ordered churros and the one thing I can say is that these are the closest-tasting churros to the authentic ones I tried in Spain. So if anything, visit Taqado for their churros. They make them fresh and piping hot and the chocolate isn't some watered down, sugary nonsense. It's legit.

I love the location of this branch as it is set right by the beach and offers a gorgeous view during the day time.

I ordered the chicken fajita - which was stuffed with cilantro rice, meaty chicken, hot salsa, sour cream, guacamole and a generous amount of shredded monterey jack cheese.

The fajita was delicious - it was light and quick snack that could be enjoyed while walking around the beach.

Positives - the service is quick, staff is well trained. You can enjoy a quick, healthy, and delicious meal in less than 10 mins of preparation - if you happen to be in a hurry!

Hmmm I LOVE Mexican food... But after saying that I pretty much compare everything to California!


But in Dubai ignorance and cost cutting always prevails.....
Shitty attitude from the staff
Stingy Servings
Charged for everything extra..
And super expensive imported sugarcane Coco Cola!!
The quantity does not suit the price!!

I went there early in the morning. Their location is perfect. The service was slow, because there was only one person taking the orders and doing the burrito. However, he treated customers good. I ordered Churros, and it was good.

Off late I've started to really like taco's - like really like them! I think it started after I tasted the lobster taco's from O cacti - delicious!

So I was quite excited when I heard that Taqado have a small place at Kite beach. With the Beach canteen in full swing - we decided to check it out one evening (they are open till 9pm)

I was here for one thing only: TACO'S

                                                     
                                     

The procedure as such is very simple - choose taco, choose one of the fillings: chicken, steak and even my favourite the guacamole.

 And voila your very own taco box! (AED 28/- for the 3 taco's) 

The taco's shelled are fresh and crackle as soon as you bite in them, the chicken pieces are quite chunky and hence make the meal quite filling. The guacamole filling was my favourite which had a fresh zesty flavour, the sour cream holding it all together and adding an acidic touch to the taco.

We ended our meal with the churros (for AED 15/-) which sadly I didn't feel lived up to the original churros.

A cute little shack in kite beach, Taqado is a nice little tex-mex joint offering burritos, tacos and fajitas.

I am very health conscious- so i decided to forgo the wraps or the shells and get a burrito box. The server wasn't trained well so I had to repeat my order several times- but after adding beans guacamole and chicken, I was satisfied with my healthy lunch.

The taste was good, lacking a bit of seasoning and definitely a lot of spice, but I did enjoy it.
