As a transplant Texan from two years ago to Wallingford, I have to say it’s a travesty to even refer to the food they sell as “Tacos” or even anything related to Mexican food. I love the building, though.
But is is NEVER “taco time” at Taco Time.
@Sean, don’t you love the Mexifries? Ha ha ha!
that Taco Time gave me food poisoning
Hey there Texas, don’t be dissing on “Mexifries.” They are muy autentica.
Seriously, that place is such a crappy ripoff (sub-Taco Bell par food, and weirdly expensive) and is easily the ugliest building in the neighborhood. I wish it would just go away.
Rancho Brava taco truck a few blocks east is a waaaaay better bet.
Hey, I like “TT” as we call it. And I can’t speak for the meaty dishes there, but they have excellent, healthy, vegetarian options that I enjoy. I don’t really care about the Ethnic Purity of my fast food, but I find their veg options are a darned sight healthier – and tastier – than those found in a regular “Mexican” restaurant.
I suppose you purists won’t eat at an Italian restaurant that serves pizza, either?

I’d like to clarify that while I don’t think tater tots should be called “Mexifries,” I do enjoy scarfing them!
I like that Taco Time–my favorite on-the-go drive through. People are are always nice, the food’s fast and good (if a little pricey), and the building’s interesting–more than another cooky-cutter chain box. Sure beats mini strip malls and Key Bank. Nice to see them thinking healthy.
I never did understand all the Taco Time hatin’ in the neighborhood – except for the person who got food poisoning. Sometimes you need a grab and go — and the vegetarian stuff is reasonable on the calories. Rancho Bravo is OK, don’t care for their beans though.
The “sub Taco Bell” comment — seriously? 😉
How many remember the previous incarnation – the wandering, scruffy shack of an addition on a walk-up window, patchwork tables and chairs, wooden and creaky. Way cool.
Comparing the food at Taco Time as being worse than Taco Bell is insane. Taco Time is a local company, not serving pre-packaged meat-like substances. A favorite is the soft taco… mmmm… and Mexi-Fries.
Of course, we also have Rancho Bravo now, but Taco Time has been a reliable neighborhood resource for many, many years before. The building choice was a bizarre change, but the food is good.
