Tacovore --Restaurant Rec. {By: Nyla}



Last night Nathan and I were out and about running errands and decided to stop and get some dinner.

We have been both been dying to try out Tacovore since it opened a few weeks ago.
It's located in one of our favorite neighborhoods in Eugene, the Whiteaker.
The area is located on blair and features tons of great places to eat and drink.
It's a fun neighborhood for walking around and enjoying these great summer nights we have been having.

So when we heard a new taco place had opened we knew we had to try it.


Tacovore has a great open area making the place feel huge.
We both really liked this because it instantly felt like somewhere you could come with friends be loud and stay for hours while not bothering anyone.
You walk up to the counter and order what your hungry for.

One complaint we had was the menu was not listed anywhere so you had to decide what you wanted once you reached the register.
This made me feel like I needed to make a fast decision and I couldn't really weigh my options out.

I went for a fish taco and carne asada.
While Nathan ordered the taco of the day (A lamb taco) and went for a bowl of gazpacho.
We also ordered chips and salsa to share.

I heard a lot about their margaritas so decided to try them out as well.


The drinks and chips and salsa arrived first.
The had a salsa bar so we grabbed some other flavors that looked good.


The Margaritas lived up the their hype. Salty, limey and delicious. 
Fair warning though, they are strong but oh so good.
They were 8 dollars which isn't bad especially for the size of these bad boys.



The chips were really good. 
They are homemade and fried fresh.
They came out nice and hot.
The salsa was pretty good. It tasted fresh but I may have preferred something with a little more kick.



Nathan's Taco of the day. Featuring Lamb, Olives and feta cheese.


My Fish and Carne Asada Tacos.
Look at that fish, it's huge!







Nathan's Gazpacho soup. A cold Mexican soup. I had never had it before but it was good!
Limey and sweet!

All in all we highly recommend this place. 
Great food, drinks and atmosphere.
Not to mention a great location at the start of the Whittaker.
