Tasty Tacos are my favorite! It is a must have when we get to the Des Moines area. There is nothing like them in Montana where I am from and I have driven 1368 miles one way just to have Tasty Tacos. The store location you choose to stop isn’t too important because the flavors, portions and customer service are consistent. You can dine in or take it to go. My favorites are the flour taco and flour nacho with queso.

Very solid!!! Tacos actually overflowing with meat and toppings?!?! So use to other restaurants giving me half filled tacos, this place gave very generous portions and was really good. Hot sauce is a must.

Review for Tasty Tacos – SE 14th St, Des Moines
I’ve been a loyal customer of Tasty Tacos for many years and have always enjoyed their food. However, I recently had a serious incident at the SE 14th Street location that needs to be addressed.
I took my parents, who are vegetarian and Hindu, and ordered bean tacos for them. Unfortunately, the tacos were served with beef instead of beans, which was a significant mistake given their dietary and religious restrictions. While the staff did apologize and correct the order, this caused my family considerable distress. My mother, who has never eaten meat, was extremely upset and felt unwell afterward.
In addition to this, I tried to reach out to customer service to discuss the issue privately, but I found no available contact number or email on their website. It’s 2025, and it’s surprising that there’s no easy way to file a complaint or get a response directly from the company. I even asked in person if they could take my contact details to follow up, but was told they don’t handle it that way.
I’m sharing this review not to harm the business, but to highlight a serious need for better customer service and communication. I hope Tasty Tacos will improve how they handle customer concerns and provide a clear way for customers to reach out directly when issues arise.
I believe in supporting local businesses, and I hope this feedback will help them make positive changes.

Been going for years. Always get the original flour. Their 12oz salsa is a 1.75! Don’t get duped at the grocery store. Queso Blanco was thicker than I prefer. Guess better than runny.

Honestly, I’m just disappointed. I grabbed three chicken tacos and an original beef and bean. The beef and bean was loaded but these chicken tacos are just sad. Three small clumps of chicken, lettuce scraped from the bottom of the barrel, and someone sneezed cheese. I’d also rather have just submitted a complaint instead of posting a review but that seems to be missing from your site.

Went with hubs as it was his favorite place to go when he lived in the area. I had the chili and corn chips. Having been there long ago, I had forgotten how icky the ground meat tastes. It’s like they add corn meal as filler to it. Chips were on par w other fast taco joints. Hubs said his four shell taco wasn’t as good as he remembered.

I ordered 3 original flour tacos, 2 enchiladas, a side of refried beans and a chicken and bean burrito.
The staff at the counter was Awesome.
The food….
We got it to go and I had a 20 minute drive but….
The 3 flour tacos had NOTHING in them except about a tablespoon or 2 of meat/beans.
I have NEVER been so disappointed in Tasty Tacos and I’ve been eating here as long as I can remember, close to 50 years!
The most disappointing issue…they refuse to answer their phone.
I have called 6 times and no answer.
We ordered @830pm and I started calling them before 9pm.
*I remembered to take a picture after I added my own cheese and sour cream.*

Tasty Tacos is the best place to get soft shell chicken tacos in Des Moines and don’t forget to try the poppers. Picture included. I’ve eaten tacos here for years. It never disappoints. Try it with their hot sauce. They are closed on Sundays.
The service is always fast and friendly. You can call your order ahead of time and pick it up at the restaurant.
You can even purchase their hot sauce and their taco seasoning.
