Food was real good first off. The place itself has a mixed vibe of upscale but then serves u your meal on metal trays like fast food deluxe and with paper underneath which tears and get wet and mixes with your meal..not good.
Everything is a la carte which is their choice but appears petty in a taco restaurant as every restaurant we go to ( we go to many) at least gives you a small portion of rice and beans with your dinner or even lunch entree especially 20 and 30 dollar and up entrees and still they want to bang you for $5 and $5 more for some rice and beans? It's like charging extra for ketchup (I hope I don't give them any ideas..lol)
Plenty of drinks to choose from and my wife enjoyed her mojito but again pricy 15 bucks for a small slender glass loaded with ice.
So kind of mixed review from us as we enjoyed the food we chose but extremely tight sitting arrangements (think Manhattan but this is Mineola) and quite expensive.
We saw on menu skirt steak taco or filet mignon for 40 or 50 plus which is ridiculous cause tacos are not very big and the meat amount is not even that of a complete 8 or 9 Oz steak so too expensive for us. I'm not spending a hundred dollars plus for 6 tacos.
Last the menu said soda was imported from Mexico so I got a long neck sprite bottle for my troubles of course more expensive for my curiosity so I would order the regular can or glass next time as it tasted the same as sprite is sprite is sprite.

My friends and I had the most amazing pre-labor day Sunday here!!!!! James, our server, was awesome and knowledgeable! And the food was great too!!!
I stopped in at Tulum Taco for an early dinner with my family a few weekends ago and it was a nice dining experience. We ordered guacamole as a starter, which was creamy and delicious, along with a couple of beers.
Then for our dinner we shared Tequila Shrimp, Pork Al Pastor, and Barbacoa tacos. I’d recommend the first two, particularly the tequila shrimp tacos which I thought were excellent while the barbacoa was fine but not something I’d order again.
In terms of price, I think the tacos and the beer are on the high end for what the concept is offering. But ultimately Tulum has a lot going for it; with tasty food, a beautifully decorated space, and a friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit!

Definitely get rhe rhubarb margarita. The guac was so good and the staff was super friendly and helped with suggestions. This is such a fun place to get drinks after work.
Service was perfect other than bus boy grabbing plates out from under me while I still had mouthfuls, or taking my napkin while I'm wiping my hand with it.
The food was delicious, but the portions are small for the price.
Very nicely decorated, but music was a bit loud. Could hardly hear our conversation at times.

Had been looking to try this place for months while it was getting built. Very nice decor, however felt very packed. Went on a weekend for dinner. Service was really good and fast, but felt like we were sharing our meal with the tables on either side of us, as they are placed inches away. When we got up to use restroom, the people in the other tables had to hold on to their plates. I suggested the restaurant keep in mind that some distance is necessary and hope they correct it. Tacos were tasty. Drinks ok, not that impressed.
So great! Margaritas were top notch, Sweet Pepper Marg was amazing. Nachos were very good. Smashed Meatball Tacos were out of this world. The Ahagatto dessert was so great. The staff was really attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere is very cool. Even the bathroom was cool. Go see them. Tell 'em Barsnobs sent ya!
Came here on a whim and it’s such a delicious little gem! The guacamole was addicting and the shrimp quesadilla was fantastic. My table ordered a few things to try and they were all great. And if you’re feeling adventurous try the beef tongue tacos!!😊
