They have outside tables & chairs to eat your food. I ordered a machaca burrito, it has cheese, rice, beans and egg mixed with machaca shredded beef. The Taco Roco on Broad Street

Everything about my visit to Taco Roco was amazing yesterday. The staff was extremely helpful and most importantly to me the pricing was very competitive and on point for a lunch menu. The food tasted amazing. I had the three tacos and they have an very tasty, they also had a nacho bar with six different types of salsa, cilantro, and onions. The restaurant is clean and there’s plenty of parking available. Definitely recommend this place if you happen to be in the San Luis Obispo area/Broad Street.

Great little spot near the airport for lunch. We had the burrito special and loved it, great chicken! The chips are tasty and we really enjoyed all of their salsas. None were very spicy though. The children's quesadilla was delicious.

I can't say enough good things about the food here, ordered from Postmates while here on vacation and it exceeded my expectations! Hardshell shredded beef tacos were so delicious! Fresh and flavorful. The salsa is my new obsession! The rice is perfect, Fluffy and flavorful the way Mexican rice should be. I will definitely be ordering again when I'm back in town.

I had ordered the Fish Taco and Shrimp taco and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. I normally enjoy shrimp more than fish but the fish tacos here have to be my favorite. It’s a nice little spot right near by and I’m glad I tried it. The red sauce was much spicier than expected and i absolutely LOVE that! I really enjoy spicy foods/sauces/salsa and this was definitely at the level that I like. I would recommend and I personally would like to try other options on the menu!
