Two more Tacos, PLEASE!

I usually don't review a restaurant more than once, unless the meal is REALLY good!

Well.
It WAS!



I decided to try the 'Spicy Tomato Bisque" (I always wonder if restaurants use the word "bisque' to charge more, but in this case I'd have paid whatever they wanted. It was delicious!









Tried two different tacos than the last ones I had here.
Newport something or others (didn't write down the dish) and Fish Tacos-- both good!





Lee had Pork carnitas (the ones he never really got the last time) and Kung Po chicken,on the left--  (he REALLY like that one!)

Lucky Tacos for US!

How lucky we were to 'stumble' upon this place...

We were attending a wake for a friend's mom and needed to get dinner afterwards. I headed in the direction of one of our favorite restaurants, when we realized that it was Monday, and they would be closed. So we headed around the next block thinking of it's 'sister' restaurant on Main St. As we sat at the traffic light, I asked my husband if he felt like tacos. "SURE! I love tacos!"

So we headed a few more bocks down onto Main St to a new place in the neighborhood., Lucky Taco. I've heard some of my FB friends rave about it, but hadn't been there yet. And some of our favorite places we stumble upon, were places that were 'second choices'. Appraently it used to be a food truck run by husband and wife, Dave & Erin Emmons (who came over and introduced herself to us). They now own a 'brick and mortar' at 829 MAIN STREET IN MANCHESTER, CT!!!   The inside is long and narrow with booths or counter seating...

We only went with tacos, but the selection was pretty varied. The tacos were reasonable $3-$5 and we took a few choices to try the flavors out. Some of the 'wing sauces were crazy, too!! Peanut butter and JELLY??!!

Our waitress, Shannon, was very pleasant.... After having GREAT salsa... nice and hot!, we ordered dinner.

My date/hubby ordered a  Pork Carnitas Taco :SLOW SMOKED PULLED PORK SERVED WITH CREAMY POBLANO SLAW, but what he got the same taco as one of mine (Island Jerk Taco). Still, he liked it!  (Guess we'll have to go back to try the REAL Pork Carnitas out. He also ordered two Beef Picadillo tacos: Lean ground beef braised in Spanish sauce with our signature spices, garnished with lettuce, tomato and cheese

I decided to go really different and order one of each of these...

Island Jerk Taco: SLOW ROASTED PORK WITH SPICY, TRUCK MADE JERK SEASONING AND FRESH MANGO PICO DE GALLO $4

Tasty Thai Chicken: SLOW COOKED CHICKEN WITH TRUCK MADE RED CURRY PEANUT SAUCE, TOPPED WITH FRESH CARROT, CABBAGE AND CILANTRO SLAW $4

Other than mixing up his taco ordered... it all tasted GREAT! While I only had water and Lee had iced tea, it wasn't expensive at all... a dinner for less than $22, before tip.  We'll be back!
