Crafty variety among many fusion type taco options with lively flavors and nice presentation. Fish tacos are exceptionally good. Excellent chips and salsa with small charge for refills/extra. Great jazzy music selections were streaming in the house system on a Sunday lunch (albeit uncomfortably loud on our visit). Friendly service. Would come back for more when visiting the area.

Chips and Salsa were so good. Tacos were yummy and drinks paired well. Chill server and overall a more laid back and good vibe. Loved the playlist!
Update: Back a couple weeks later with a friend since I loved it so much. Our server Blake was the best! Such a friendly, chill and conversational guy. Really felt welcomed and loved the vibes especially. Great drinks and better food. Can’t wait to come back!

Red Star Tacoma – A Happy Hour Win!
Red Star Tacoma has come a long way since my last visit several years ago what a pleasant surprise! We dropped in during happy hour but decided to order from the regular menu instead, and I’m so glad we did. I went with their 3 for $13 TACOs deal, choosing Catfish, Carnitas, and Baja Sur Fish.
Each taco was generously portioned, well balanced, and absolutely delicious. The Catfish taco stood out with its crispy, tortilla chip encrusted fish and flavorful Cajun remoulade. The Carnitas was classic and comforting with fresh pico and salsa verde, while the Baja Sur Fish was bright and satisfying with cabbage, pico, and their signature Baja sauce.
We added a side of chips and salsa for just $3.50, and to our surprise, they provided extra salsa at no charge great hospitality and value! I also took advantage of their happy hour tequila special and tried Fortaleza Reposado for the first time. At $13 with a generous pour and $3 off, it was a great way to round out the meal.
Overall, Red Star Tacoma delivered a fantastic experience great food, generous portions, and solid happy hour deals. Definitely worth a visit, especially during happy hour!

Our family tried this taco place for lunch and really enjoyed ourselves. The tacos were all incredible, we especially loved the Catfish taco, the Buffalo Chicken, the Agave Shrimp, the Carne Asadas, and Pulled Pork. There were more but these were the most memorable, the chorizo was good but lacked flavor. The hot sauces were great, and their margaritas were so so good!! Highly recommend – and get the queso and the salami & chips! The Queso was my fave (I added it to the chorizo taco and it made it spectacular!)…

I stopped by Red Star Taco and had a pretty good experience overall. The tacos were decent—good flavor, nice presentation, and a solid portion size. The fried chicken tacos had a nice crunch. The chips and salsa were a nice starter, with crispy chips and a flavorful salsa. The menu had a good variety of options, which I appreciated. Service was good, and the atmosphere was casual and comfortable. Overall, a decent spot for tacos.

Should have been, could have been great. But the kitchen doesn’t deliver on an otherwise very promising menu. Heavy reliance upon the table’s hot sauces to make up for missing flavors in the tacos. We had catfish, cauliflower, tofu tacos, and a couple others (of the plant-based variety). The sauces and flavorful slaw we’ve had in previous visits have now been pared down, and the result is just plain boring. Good service, and a decent selection of beers on tap. Maybe worth the visit if you live close by, but no longer worth the trip if you don’t.

I loved that instead of playing a mix of music, upon arriving we were treated first to James brown’s greatest or something. The food was definitely tasty, service was also great. The price got me through, two tacos and a coke from Seattle soda company with tip was $20. To be fair, this is going out to eat now, it’s why I have to avoid it mostly.

Chips and salsa to start, yes please because they are yummy! I had the shrimp and elote taco and the carne asada taco, both were delicious. And let’s not forget the home made corn tortillas… YUM! Staff was fast and friendly and the atmosphere was fun. Parking does suck as it is street parking, but hey it is Tacoma! I also.recommend reservations for non-waiting option!

Fabulous food and great service. I tried the roasted pineapple margaritas, and it was amazing! Everything I have eaten here has been wonderful – tacos, nachos, chips and guacamole. You won’t be disappointed with anything on the menu. The Happy Hour and Margarita Mondays are also a great deal.
