Title: Taco Via
Post by: Pete on July 09, 2014, 01:09:28 PM
Get ready for a doozy....

Recently, on a "social media" outlet another member of this board (will remain unnamed) boasted about the taco burger at Taco Via as the "best thing on the menu."   

I visited Taco Via this afternoon, and decided that I would give it another shot.  I have had plenty of taco burgers on my day.  Growing up on the mean streets of Topeka, I am no stranger to them.

I ordered my Taco Burger with a side of chips and queso.

I sit down, and instead of tearing into the chips, I immediately go for the burger.  You see, it comes wrapped up, and I know that can make them susceptible to sogginess. Without any delay I unwrap it.  rough ridin' SOGGY!  My first instinct was immediately go order the Sancho that I should have ordered originally...but, it's the lunch hour and the line was already 20 deep.

I force myself to eat the god damn soggy mess, the whole time thinking that I would like to give the "nameless poster" a piece of my mind.   If it weren't for the silver lining of delish queso, I cannot promise you I'd even be here alive today.

So, everyone do yourself and your loved ones a favor.  If anyone around you EVER even thinks about ordering the taco burger instead of the Sancho, slap the crap out of them.

That is a wonderful taco burger.  If you are budget minded, Taco Tico makes a nice little TB as well.

Some of the best ice in North America comes from Taco Via. Also there is no reason they shouldn't bottle their taco sauce and sell it. So good.

Let me ask you something, pal...how do you order your TB?  Me, I ordered it with NO mods, just as they make it.  I bet you mod the crap out your TB, don't you?  OMG, your TB is prolly a sloppy joe and you didn't even know it!

Are there still Taco Ticos?  I think all the ones in Wichita went bankrupt or something.

There is still (again) at least one Taco Tico in Wichita. I like Taco Shop too.

Wow, man.  All this time I thought it was just one restaurant that people were confusing the spelling and pronunciation of Via/Villa.  Turns out I just have LTVIQ.

I've made many many mnay taco via taco burgers in my time and honestly have no idea why you would go to taco via for one.

Taco Via has made its name serving AUTHENTIC mexican food, not some abomination americanized version.
