Best Things to Order at Taco Time

Taco Time's menu is bigger than it needs to be for a first visit. If you're new, ignore most of it and start with the handful of items that genuinely define the chain.

1. The Crisp Burrito

This is the one. The hand-rolled, fried Crisp Meat Burrito is the single item most regulars point newcomers to — golden and crunchy outside, savory inside, and under 400 calories on its own.

2. Mexi-Fries

Mexi-Fries (seasoned potato rounds) are the side that pairs with everything and the thing fans miss most when they move away from a Taco Time town.

3. Soft Chicken Taco

If you want something lighter, the Soft Chicken Taco is the best-balanced light pick — good flavor, around 260 calories.

4. Nachos (to share)

The Original Nachos are a genuine sharing plate. Order them for the table, not for yourself.
