Tacobar - San Jose

We came before 12pm for lunch and we had to wait about 30min until they took our order. Besides that, the food was really yummy. Prices are ok because the dishes are big. Since it is an open restaurant be careful with flies because they are all over the salad bar. Staff was super friendly.

A Feast of Flavors: Unforgettable Spare Ribs! Just had the pleasure of savoring some of the best spare ribs I've ever tasted! The meat was so tender it practically melted off the bone, and the smoky, tangy marinade was a burst of perfection in every bite. These spare ribs took my taste buds on a journey of pure delight. The combination of flavors was nothing short of extraordinary. If you're a fan of ribs, you simply can't miss out on this culinary experience!

I ordered one Korean Beef BBQ Taco and one Philly Cheese Steak Taco and they were quite good actually. The atmosphere is nice, and the staff was always helpful and friendly. Prices are middle-ranged. I would return there because I think it is a very good option. In addition to Tacos they also offer Burritos and steaks among others. There's a salad bar too.

Beautiful place. Just noticing how lovely it is from the inside. About a year ago the menu was dull and very simple. Today am checking it out and it is amazing. From vegan lovers to meat enthusiasts. From tea to juices and from excellent cold drinks to awesome desserts. They really changed the whole menu experience and also the new savory palates yoy can find in this renewed place.

I really really want to recommend this place as a top notch casual go-to. It’s got so much promise… the concept is spot on, the service is friendly, and the space is comfortable and nice. But the food has been a disappointment. I don’t know if they changed head chef maybe… the first few times we came, we were thrilled. But nowadays it seems the past several visits have really been a let-down. Dried out rice with slightly bland and indistinguishable flavor added (please just serve fresh rice if you can’t nail the spices), bad tortillas, cheap margarine when the menu clearly says butter, wilting cucumbers, etc. The fresh fish has generally been pretty awesome when we’ve gotten it, and some yummy sauces from the salad bar. But the loud music is a deal killer. I eat in places where I feel I can have a conversation and I really can’t stand the feeling I have to yell over someone else’s music in order to be heard. I really really want this place to be my neighborhood favorite, but they’d have to keep the music much lower and keep the salad bar stocked with fresher food. Fewer options prepared better would be a gigantic improvement.
