My boyfriend didn't expect much from his $1.99 breakfast tacos, either, but quickly gobbled down his two double-egg, cheese and potato tacos despite how heavy and huge they were. The tacos aren't only cheap and good, though; they're available all day long from 7 a.m. opening to 3 p.m. closing time.
Right now, I'm waiting for Greatfull Taco to extend its hours to 8 p.m., because I think dinner is where this place will stand out as an inexpensive neighborhood option that offers its patrons truly good food in a wonderful setting. I can picture many a happy night on its patio over one of the craft beers on its menu (or a glass of wine) and a few assorted tacos. And I can picture eating that Viola Lee many times in the future.
On his first go-round, I really thought Riccardo Palazzo-Giorgio had gotten it right here with Sabetta (the restaurant located here just prior to Greatfull Taco; Palazzo-Giorgio was/is chef at both). And I really think that he has once again with Greatfull Taco -- I'm just hoping the inexpensive, fast-casual concept done here is more appealing to the surrounding area. Because if this place doesn't become a treasured neighborhood gem in the next few years or so, I just might hang up this whole fortune-food-teller hat once and for all.
