    The BEST taco experience I've ever had! The flavor of everything was amazing! I would die happy inside that birria jus! Awesome friendly people, clean, fun music. I wish they were in Iowa!

    Pleasantly surprised by this taco fusion place! The samosa taco was not only flavorful but super filling. The Indian food leaning tacos had a great kick that’s wasn’t too spicy. Super fast & stayed put together when traveling home.

    Best new place in town. Food tastes as good as it looks. Fresh ingredients, gotta get the social tots and egg!

    Really tasty gourmet tacos and elotes. A good selection for everyone between beef, pork, chicken, and vegetarian options. Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and elotes. The tacos are about $4.25 or $4.50 each so it's a little expensive in my opinion. The food is really good in terms of flavor. The restaurant is very clean and spacious. The staff was not pushy or rude even though it took us a long time to figure out what to order. Fred was very nice.

    We tried a variety of tacos from here today. Kungpow chicken, fish and chips, falafel, nashville chicken, Philly cheesesteak. Food was amazing and the guy greeting us and bringing out our food was a hoot! Can't wait to go back and try some other ones.

    Having just returned to town from Austin, TX; I thought finding a good taco in Peoria was a thing of the past. However, Social Taco delivered! This place is phenomenal. Delicious, LOADED tacos at a decent price, served by a super warm and welcoming staff!

    My fiancé visited Social Taco for the first time this week and he couldn't wait to take me to try it. The birria tacos were SO GOOD that I'll probably be thinking about them for days. And don't skip out on the chips & salsa, because the salsa... wow. That alone is enough to keep me coming back. 10/10

    This place is a small gem. We really enjoyed our dishes. I had a few tacos and she had a quesadilla and tacos. We were very impressed by the sauce flavors and portion sizes. Order less to begin, you can always order more later. The food comes up very quickly. My only complaint is the over reliance on cheese and dairy based items to provide flavor. I'd like more flavors due to a variety of veggies and other dairy free components. The sprouts on the buffalo taco are a great example. I felt the tacos were missing some of the veggie balance to them.

    So I took the advice of many on here and took the kids to Social Taco. It did not disappoint! From the friendly greetings at the door to the friendly banter while we enjoyed some amazingly different tacos. I highly recommend the Kung Pow...sweet with a little bit of heat! Definitely will be back!

    Tacos here are great. Pretty pricey at about $4.50 per taco. However it was a great experience. The Nashville Shrimp and the Beef Birria tacos were my favorite. The Tikka Masala was also good but not as amazing as the other two.

    Had a great experience here! Lots of specialty tacos to try! My favorite was the smoked pulled pork (they were all actually really good) but I really really hope they add smoked brisket to the menu in the near future because if they did I’d be here 3-4 times a week! The guy who took our order was very friendly, hilarious, and helpful with any questions. Best customer service I’ve seen in a while. This is a newer business in the old Applebees building, they seem to be doing great and I hope the community supports them, I know I plan to! Great tacos and great customer service, what more could you want?!🤷🏻‍♂️ All the staff members here were great! Thanks Social Taco and will see you again soon!

    It was our first time there and the food was delicious. This is going to be our go-to place every time we visit Peoria. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The best dining experience I've had in a long time.

    The place is clean and the staff is very friendly. Food is excellent and served to your table promptly. The meal for 2 ( with beer and drink)was around $30. The selection I diverse and there is something for eveyone.

    Many varieties of tacos to choose from, including some vegetarian options. Reasonably priced. Beer on tap and margaritas are available. Spacious restaurant with lots of parking space. Great service. We were a group of 6 people visited, and everyone liked their tacos.

    AMAZING TACOS! I can’t stay away from these tacos. Everything about this place is amazing. Service is great and the food is even better. Our food came out right away and we left with full belly’s. Everything was clean and well kept.

    I have been to Social Taco more than a handful of times now and very much enjoy the place. It is family friendly and the perfect hybrid: eat-in but quick service. You never have to wait long for food. I highly recommend the social birria taco, walk in the park chicken taco, and the sweet potato taco is amazing! The kids love the chicken quesadilla and guacamole.

  • 5/5 Jason H. 10 months ago on Google
    Fantastic food. Probably some of the best tacos in the Peoria area. It is not a traditional taco place. Lots of interesting fusion tacos to choose from and very reasonable prices. I would highly recommend this place for lunch. Quite and easy to have a conversation. You don’t need to talk loudly to be heard. If you are in East Peoria definitely worth the stop.
