Tacos N Subs

One of the oldest restaurants in cartersville. I’ve enjoyed eating there when I was a kit and still do today

Ok this place can start out looking very promising looking at the menu. The décor is crazy but I’m not one to judge on décor as long as I good seating. So back to menu they have a book with pictures and descriptions because the menu is so large and has Mexican and American Mexican like hamburgers which is just taco meat on a bun. Anyway we got a combo for 7.99 and we both got the potato poncho which is a must if you dare try this place. We got a taco salad and soncho grande also. Lots of food or should I say lots of ground beef. So much your tummy will beg you to stop.
Somebody mentioned this as a redneck Taco Bell well it’s close. Reason is the lack of flavor the sauce doesn’t matter if you get hot or mild you won’t be able to tell. The food we got was fresh and hot guess depends on time of day. The parking is limited so try lunch early.
Overall not bad just don’t expect authentic Mexican cuisine

Quirky little place. So fun and very clean. Customer service was top notch. Food is cooked to order and really good. If you are expecting a regular Mexican restaurant this isn’t it. It’s Tex-​Mex and country mixed all together. Brought my 9 months pregnant daughter because it’s her favorite! Try a Potato Ponchito… baked potato with taco meat, cheese and salsa. Not your ordinary place but really cool.

This place is kinda whacky… you go to the window and order your food off a menu on the wall above the order window. Or look at the photos in the book! Like someone mentioned before the décor is like a daycare center… Bright colored paint and Señor Taco on the wall. He looks more like a egg to me…
Potato pancho was kind of a surprise. Sliced potatoes with beef and cheese on top?
Then the nachos was not that bad.
The beef burrito was ok? The flour tortilla was not good. tasted cheap like a bad store brand .
This place ls like a red neck Taco Bell… I would not dare try a Sub from them… I would be too scared…

Service is slow. The menu is simple and when ordering solely from what is offered without special needs (hold this, extra that), it can still take up to 20 minutes for an order to be ready.
This is «old school» gringo Mexican food like we all had growing up in the 70’s and 80’s. Its good food but don’t expect authenticity in their recipes.
Beef tacos, hard shell all the way are tasty.

It’s pretty cheap and it’s still too expensive. Very greasy dishes with no flavor. Save your money for something better.

We ate at the new Acworth location. This place was a joke. We got our food and laughed. Literally laughed at the food. We got chicken nachos… It was stale and literally a tortilla shell split in half with cheese melted on top. The girl comes out and asks if we want to replace our food. We said no and just left. The taco was pale and inedible. Pass this place up. Taco Bell tastes 10 times better. I’d rather deal with the explosive butt mud from eating at Taco Bell than to come back here and eat!

I’ve been eating here since I was a kid and they had an arcade in the back. The arcade has long been gone, and although I miss crystal castles, the food hasn’t changed a bit. Really good food, one of those places you could eat daily thanks to the large variety on the menu.

AWFUL on every level! This is my first review, I signed up just to put this on. The interior was cheap and tacky, it could be over looked if the food wasn’t horrid. The super burrito was a gooey glob of caned chili and fake cheese. The grilled chicken salad had dry stale chicken on iceberg lettuce. THEN the sub was slimy lunch meat on a white bun covered in thousand island dressing. Oh it also took forever and a crazy lady that brings out your food was busy talking then got really mad when we walked up to get our food at the window. DON’T GO!!! Wish I could do negative stars!!!

After 34 years, this place is under the new ownership of Parker Tidwell. Parker runs the place each day and takes care of his customers. They are making a lot of great changes and updates to the facilities and décor but the Tex-​Mex menu has not changed one bit. The food has never been the issue as this is very good Tex-​Mex. The cheese nachos (mild) are my favorite. I am a chili-​head but you can not match the flavor of the mild nachos as the chopped pepperocini and real cheese help make the dish. A potato pancho (hot) with sour cream and jalapenos added is another of my guilty pleasures here.
This place is thriving now after being in a rut for the past few years. This is one of those places that you just get a craving for every so often and I am in almost weekly to get my fix. If you have been in the past and got tired of the junk, clutter and indifferent service, try it again now as all of those problems are gone. They even chunked those vintage 1970 televisions and put in a flat screen. It is only getting better.

I want to say first that the service was top notch from the cashier to the waitress. The owner spoke to us, very nice.
This had to be the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. It was so ridiculous, we could not stop laughing!
We ordered cheese dip and chips, easy right? It had big clumps of burnt cheese in it and the chips were stale. They were the broken ones you get at the bottom of the bag.
My daughter ordered the mexicali, it was a mexi mess. I ordered the sub with the turkey and ham and some other meat. It was on those stale rolls that the schools use, and the meat was like that cheap bar-​s meat you get at the dollar tree… and it was $ 7. I knew I should have stopped at Quizno’s. I could have ate at Taco Bell for half the price and better food, and that is saying a lot. Taco Bell is not my favorite place.
I am not exaggerating, it was so bad! I left the waitress a 20% tip because the food was not her fault and she was great. I don’t know why it made us laugh so much, I am surprised we did not get kicked out for laughing that much. I think it was we paid almost $ 25 for food we would not eat at home

This is the one of the best tex mex restaurants in Georgia. Take a minute to look through the Introduction to Taco’s and Subs Menu Book on the front counter. It contains pictures and descriptions of the many non-​chain menu items. My favorite is the Sancho Grande Hot with minced jalapeño peppers, homemade lemonade and … don’t laugh, a peanut butter cornflake cookie.
The exterior and the interior are dated, but don’t let it fool you this. This is a great place to eat. The restaurant is family owned, operated and well established with lines out the door at lunch, but the lines move quickly. My only real complaint about T&S is they are known to take off extended weekends and week long holidays, so I’ve been disappointed more than once when I stopped by to find them closed.
It is difficult to compare and contrast Tacos and Subs with others restaurants. It is not the order by number chips and salsa, cheese dip kind of place. Tacos and Subs reminds me of the food carts on the streets of Mexico and El Salvador, inexpensive and delicious. They are another great low cost original Cartersville restaurant like the 4-​Way, Ross’s DIner and my favorite meat and three Doug’s.

Good place not a romantic ambience inside but i have had good tacos when I have visited.

the most americanized ‘tex mex’ food you can possibly find. and i’m not talking a salsa-​and-​cheese-​dip type of mexican place. this place is only halfway decent. but if you live in cartersville, or are otherwise in the area often, you should stop by tacos n subs at least once. it’s an experience.
the space is very off putting. run down, usually clean, but with a low-​rent school cafeteria vibe and décor. you order at the counter, where you can see literally everything on the menu in picture form in a weird photo album they have for your convenience. definitely nice to see how everything looks before you make a decision. most of the food is a combination of ingredients they probably bought from kroger… tortillas, shredded cheddar jack cheese, sour cream and salsa that has to have come from a can. prices are dirt cheap, so you can usually try more than one item for the price of a ‘typical’ lunch anywhere else.

Tacos N Subs is a local staple in Cartersville that everyone should try. It is true that a while ago they received very poor health scores but have since turned around the state of cleanliness in the kitchen and are still churning out some of the best Tex-​Mex I’ve ever eaten.
I always order half of a Mexicali and sometimes, if I’m feeling ambitious, half of a potato pancho. It doesn’t get any better than that! They’re not always open and have sometimes inconvenient hours but’s delicious, fast, and full of local flavor!
The parking lot is very small and the restaurant is often packed but if you haven’t been (and you’re not on a diet) I suggest you give them a try.

The best Tex-​Mex food anywhere. The burrito is the best.
