Absolutely fantastic food. I spent a few summers living in Queenstown and would come here at least once a week for the nachos and a margarita. Fun staff and delicious food.

Very nice food. I recommend the vegetarian tacos, they were excellent. Not too expensive. Located in the city center. Take away or stay seated

The food was so fresh and delicious, very reasonably priced and good portions. Great hidden little spot, we sat inside and relaxed after a long day of site seeing. Great casual dining option in Queenstown.

Excellent food. Though there’s limited space to seat,the food is fantastic. It is made right in front of you. The ingredients are all very fresh and local. We really enjoyed our vegetarian tacos. The lady (sorry,can’t remember the name but was Russian) was very nice and very efficient and always with a smile.

This was our second time at Taco Medic in Queenstown after discovering it on our first holiday to Queenstown. Our daughters have coeliac disease so we were stoked to find a yummy, fresh dining out option that is dedicated gluten free 😀 I would highly recommend it...even if you don't have to eat gluten free! The churros were a real hit too, the girls hadn't had churros before.

Cheers! It's awesome to know that everyone can savour our fresh and delicious offerings, whether they have to eat gluten-free or not. And, hey, churros are the universal language of happiness, right? We're delighted the girls got to experience the joy of churros with us!

We can't wait to have you back . Until then, take care, and keep spreading the churro love! 🌮👨‍🍳👍
