täkō, Pittsburgh PA

Wasn't sure what to expect all I can say it was amazing! Friendly service delicious food and amazing margaritas. Will definitely go back.

Great spot to enjoy food and drinks. The atmosphere is nice. The food is tasty. We went after a Steelers game, so it can get really crowded. I would suggest making a reservation on days that games are held in the city.

One of our favorite places in pgh. We had the poke bowl app (packed with huge chunks of salmon), delicious pollo tacos, and the fish tacos with a light and crispy breading and perfect cook on the fish. All the flavor combinations are out of this world. And more tequila choices than you know what to do with. And our server Grace was attentive and wonderful.

Been a couple of years since here. Food taste has declined a little.ok more than a little. Atmosphere is still good and service is great. They have 1 unisex bathroom. ONE! Could be 200 people in here and again, 1 effing bathroom. And nowhere to really stand.

Great place for dinner before a show. Their House Guacamole, Salmon Poke, Pollo Asado Tacos, and Korean Tacos were delicious.

If I could I'd give 3.5 stars. Ordered the Korean and Fish tacos to go. Order was correct and fresh hot and overall okay. The fish, was cooked to perfection but after that it went down hill. Pico was literally 2 small pieces of diced tomatoes on each taco. I didn't taste the chipotle lime mayo at all and I had guacamole in one bite of each taco. The "slaw" had no seasoning just cabbage. As for the Korean tacos, the steak was fine the taco itself was crunchy and smelled delicious but once again the taste of it just wasn't there.

Great tasting tacos and nice service. Enjoyed the rugged style in decor and atmosphere. Was recommended to us by nearby hotel concierge and we couldn't agree more.

We had Great service and very laid back experience while visiting. We came after a Steelers game, so it was crowded.

Love the design of the interior, food and drinks and great, the staff is even more wonderful!

Absolutely loved this place. Drove in from Delaware for a long weekend. Our bartender happened to be from Delaware. He was the best. We enjoyed our time there. The atmosphere was great, good as great and drinks were great. The servers were phenomenal. Will definitely be back again on our next trip to Pittsburgh.

Food was great. Beef taco and papas bravas are amazing. Music slightly too loud but nice atmosphere still!

Pricy, compared to my usual hole in the wall joints. Nevertheless, cool bar! Clean, comfortable, friendly, fresh.

We got to sit outside on the park benches that let us look right into the kitchen. Being able to watch the kitchen work was a fun change over where we usually sit inside. As always, the food was amazing. We had the tako taco, chorizo taco, chips n salsa, and salmon poke. It was just the right amount of food for two hungry people, almost too much.almost.fair warning: the chorizo is a messy taco, delicious sausage and runny egg going everywhere. Order it for sure, just have that napkin ready:)

Great spot for tacos and all things tequila! The bartender was great, and had a ton of knowledge to share. Their tacos are outstanding, also, do yourself a favor and get the guacamole!

What happened? I ate here 2 months ago it was honestly my new all time favorite place to eat in Pittsburgh across all genres. The fish taco was the best fried fish I ever had, the churro and Carmel was a knock out, heavenly. I tried the new location in bakery square a couple weeks later, pretty low in quality compared to downtown but I figured you were just shipping premade stuff to that location and it was just secondary to downtown whatever. We came to the downtown location last night as my choice for a last meal before an oral surgery today, everything's different all the sudden. Equal to or slightly less quality than bakery square. Churro 100% different decent at best, Carmel not nearly as good. Fish taco Sloppy not crispy at all fish tastes thawed from frozen. I figured the expansion has changed things with staff menu or ingredients. Or maybe you lost your better chef somehow but I was pretty disappointed.

Man this place was amazing and I'm glad I found it and I can't wait to go back to Pittsburgh to try it again. Was a little confusing walking in the door at first as you're greeted with a freezer/ refrigerator Commercial Door which throws you off but after you get past that you walk into a dark room when you start smelling the wonderful Aromas of the meal you are about to enjoy. Very low key setting and the food and drinks were amazing. I really wish I would have taken the time to take a few photos but we were just so anxious to dig in it just didn't cross my mind. The food was prepared very well decoratively and was a complete flavor bomb. You really taste the love that they put into the food there and you also get to see it in action when you first walk in the door as the kitchen is right to your right hand side before you go through the commercial freezer / refrigerator door.

This place was a lot of fun. We were seated quickly upstairs. Drinks were very good. Our kids got the kids quasadilla, which was very tasty. Korean tacos were awesome and filled to the brim. Baja taco also very good. Corn ejote was the best i ever had. Our server and her team checked up on us a lot. We ended with an order of the churrios. Overall, great place.
Only negative was only one restroom so the line was a bit long.

Super amazing food- i mean, wow! The tacos here are just incredible.everything is so fresh and that truly makes the difference in my opinion.the staff was very friendly and accommodating, very knowledgeable about the menu.we sat outside and the atmosphere is cozy but also chic- you’d never guess it’s right on the road.the outdoor eatery bar they have in front of the restaurant is very cool as well, i think it offers a unique dining experience- but also in a comfortable way.the baja tacos were my favorite by far and the spicy pineapple marg was fabulous! (keep in mind that it is serrano pepper- NOT jalapeños- so it’s got a liiiittle more of a kick)
the queso was ridiculously good- it was still steaming when it got to our table
highly recommend stopping by this place for some really great food:)

Overall an excellent experience, the dark/red lighting and loud music isn’t what I prefer but the food is great.

I went for drinks this time, but like their food. Large selection of tequila if that’s your thing.

Casual style!
