Best Live Music Restaurants in Old Town

Great experience! Loved the traditional hearty Italian!

Amazing food and service. The cocktails and mezcal were exciting and the food surprised and satisfied with every bite. It was hard to keep from licking the moles and other sauces off my plate.

The food is a 5* for sure. They have large servings as well. The carnitas enchiladas were bomb, the steak and shrimp fajitas also bomb. The service was a 3*... the waitress was a bit rude. We had 8 total with 4 kids with us, she was not friendly. I noticed the attitude and didn't say anything, then my husband noticed and told me she wasn't friendly. Our kids were well behaved and we weren't difficult with orders or anything so not sure what was up. I would not consider this place kid friendly for a few reasons. 1. No activity sheet with crayons for kids, they gave us 1 kids menu for both of our families to share, not sure they were low or what but we asked for two and were told they only had 1. They don't have kids cups with lids and straws, this alone is almost worth not going back. Both the 4 year olds spilled their water and were playing with it. Their cups for the kids were just open cups. If you get kids cups with kids and straws then let us know and we will be back. The alcoholic drinks were okay. I sensed some carbonation in the skinny margarita which I hate, the menu did not say it had soda water. The glass was skinny and tall, I personally look forward to the classic old fashioned double walled glasses. The tajin rim was weak too. Overall the food was so good almost worth going back for but would love to see some friendlier service and kids cups.

Celebrated my wife's birthday and TAKO did not disappoint. Great Service, The Food was outstanding, the ambiance, music and vibe was awesome. This is a great place. It is a speakeasy fully decorated from the time you walk through the secret door, up the stairs, and into the perfect setting for fun. I highly recommend TAKO.

I'm a San Diego native and never dared to go to this place before, but decided to go with a coworker for Taco Tuesday and was REALLY impressed by the tacos! I ended up eating 6 or 7 of them, and the drinks were great too. I will be going back!
