The casual eat-in and take-out restaurant is easy enough to navigate. Diners will head to the counter, fill out the slip-of-paper menu, and then wait for their Mexican or American influenced meal to arrive. Options include tacos, quesadillas, and sandwiches like pimento cheese, burgers, hot dogs, and even meatloaf and roast pork, and patrons can essentially “build their own” meal with a wealth of options and add-ons. Popular creations at the Taco factory include fish tacos, shrimp tacos, or chicken or cheese quesadillas, which can be personalized with a nice helping of Pico, sour cream, salsa, Jalapenos, or even olives or cucumbers. Patrons with a burger or sandwich craving can also add on the toppings, like slaw, chili, cheese, and pickles, and / or can opt for a side of slaw, fries or yummy fried okra. All in all, it’s a fun way to order, and it ensures everyone gets exactly what they want.
