    Tacos were cheap. not as gourmet or fancy toppings as torchy's tacos. But still good for the price!

    THIS FOOD TASTE TERRIBLE WHEN SOBER-THAT"s WHY THEY PUSH THE LIQUOR

    I've visited at least 6X-each time in denial that the last time could be so terrible.
    Rice is hard and seasoned with a can of tomato sauce.

    Enchiladas=hard tortillas and contain a disgusting cream cheese/cheddar combinations nuked in a microwave and then served. I literally threw up after eating half an enchilada it was that nasty.

    Black beans=go buy a can of black beans at the store and sprinkle Mexican fresh queso.

    Tacos=always sprinkled with crispy tortillas. I'd never expect a Mexican to think these are good (and I AM MEXICAN).

    Once saw a cook come out with handful of frozen food-that says enough to me. You pay for Fuzzy's Taco-you pay for freezer and canned food. I think they can do better.

    PRO: A place for parents to drink margaritas and watch their children run wild on the patio, zig-zagging between patrons and nearly starting a food fight.

    Loved it! Got the loaded nachos and they were awesome!! So much food for what you are paying. I was able to get it with the beans so that it was vegetarian. I got the large nachos with a margarita for under $9!

    • Soooo good

    This is my second or third visit to this Fuzzy's (each at the behest of coworkers) and my third or fourth Fuzzy's overall. After having had some less than stellar experiences with tacos at this chain recently, I decided to try a torta (sandwich). I selected the pulled pork variant, and since it was a work happy hour, I got a big ol' frozen (and I do mean frozen) goblet of Dos Equis.

    Well, the beer was great. :)  The sandwich wasn't bad, but it wasn't stellar, either. The meat was a little dry, as was the bread. The meat is accompanied by lettuce, tomato and onion as well as some shredded cheese, so it's a little basic. Faring a tad better was the side of "Latin fried potatoes", which were small cubes of potato that had been grilled up to a nice crisp while still being creamy on the inside. However, upon asking for ketchup, I was told that they were "out". That's right, out of ketchup - in the ENTIRE restaurant! How is that possible? Yes, I know most dishes here aren't really begging for ketchup, but these potatoes are. Fortunately, I'm always prepared - I carry a bottle of reduced sugar ketchup in my car (yes, I'm a dork). I fetched it, to the amazement of my coworkers, and started in on those potatoes.

    I'm sad to say, again, that the beer was the best part of this meal, but those potatoes were pretty good. And the sandwich would have been better with a little more moisture in the meat; maybe next time.

    Man this location has had it's ups and downs.  Lately they've forgotten to make my food and when they rushed it, the result was poor.  The burrito we received was smashed and the last dish had poor quality beef.  So far it's a better atmosphere than superior food.  

    I recommend they work on consistency and communication.  The cooks seem disoriented at times and not very organized.

    On the upside, when Kimberly took over as General Manager things really improved.  Not sure what changed in the last couple weeks but it needs to get back on track!

    We've eaten here several times now and will definitely come back.  Dine in only.  Don't take out. Tacos are fresh, yummy and tasty. Tried salad and its ok. Tempura fish tacos is our favorite. Tried take out twice.  Both horrible. Only live minutes away and food always cold and mushy and some reason don't get the same flavors dining in.  Great prices and atmosphere.  Staff nice and good service.   They do serve cold beer. Good for families too.will probably see you there!

    Popped into this location late one night while on a business trip.  I usually go tot he location near TCU.  This location was pretty dead.  Tacos tasted about the same.  Ordered some chips and salsa, not very warm.  This is an important item to get right if you're serving TexMex.  They need to re-tool.  All in all, cheap TexMex eats.  I prefer Fuzzy's for breakfast tacos.  Pretty good stuff.

    I ate here for breakfast.  Had a chorizo taco, bacon taco, and shrimp taco.  All come with egg and cheese for $1.99 each.  Very good all around.

    One thing I wish Fuzzy's would come around to is a salsa and condiment bar.  I like to have a choice of mild, medium, hot, or nuke depending on my mood and stomach condition.  That is really the only complaint I have about Fuzzy's.

    Oh, and it has a lot of seating, is clean, and everyone was very friendly.

    We got take out. My "taco salad" had no chips in it.
    The salad was nothing more than what I can get bagged at the grocery store.
    Dressing same thing I can get that same dressing at the grocery store.
    Meat was bland.

    Was definately not impressed. To high priced for grocery store food.

    Went to dinner here last Wed. night (5/2/12) and the wait was literally 20 minutes but there were only 10 people in line ahead of me.  One person at the register for most of that time.  Employees need to be trained to keep the line moving.  Everyone in the line was complaining about how long it was taking; we were all hungry.  Food was good but definitely not worth the 35 minute total wait to get our food.  I mentioned the wait to the guy at the register and he didn't apologize....just smiled and said, "really, the wait was that long....huh."  Bad response.  Owner should train their employees to keep a watchful eye on the line and ensure that folks are not waiting long.  We literally stood in the same place for almost 10 minutes without the line even moving.  It was weird??  This was only my second visit.  On my first visit there wasn't anyone in front of me so we just ordered.  I hope this was the exception and not the rule.

    UPDATE: Went back again tonight (5/5/12) and the service is still pretty slow.  Seems as though this place is run by a bunch of college age kids.  They need a manager presence in this restaurant to ensure that things run smoothly.  There was a guy walking around asking how everyone's meal was but they should also be putting effort into getting folks orders taken quickly.  It's a little too laid back at the register.

    UPDATE: (7/2/12) - we have been back to Fuzzy's 3 different times since my last update and have finally decided not to come back to this place.  There is absolutely no consistency to their food and the establishment is run by young kids in their late teens/early 20's.  The folks at the register are notoriously slow and they do not understand how to move the line along so that you are not waiting forever to order your food.  Additionally, we didn't see a manager on the floor or in the restaurant on our last 3 visits.  This place seems to be left to run itself by the young people that you see behind the registers and in the kitchen.  The owners really need to get back into their restaurant and manage this place.  The last 3 times that we have gone we have had burnt rice, dried out chicken tacos and undercooked potatoes.  Just not worth the money or the wait to eat subpar food.

    Love love love!!  We go just about every week to get our fix.  Love the queso, nachos and salad best.  Beer ritas are great!  Can't live without Fuzzy's Butt Burnin' Sauce, we use it on everything at home.  Enjoy the patio and my kids love the video games.  

    Also, if you need catering, they are top notch.  You can't beat the taco bar set-up for your party.  Price and quality are a phenomenal value!

    I'm pretty much addicted to Fuzzy's. I don't eat at restaurants often, but I love their concept and the food is excellent every. damn. time.

    This is one of their newest locations and I've been pleased with the overall service for being so new. I've dined in and had several to go orders and they are always right.

    I typically get the chicken salad bowl (the dine in version seems to be a little larger than the to go portion). Last time I splurged for a shrimp taco and a crawfish taco. Crawfish taco = heaven. Crispy crawfish in a light batter with a great little kick to it.

    Make sure to get a schooner of their Baja Blonde. It's made by Franconia Brewery out of McKinney and at $2.75 is a STEAL.

    Nice covered patio with fans that I look forward to using once it becomes not so insanely hot.

    I love this Fuzzy's! I've heard of Fuzzy's before but never had been. And I was driving past this once close to my home. Love, love, LOVE their big chicken taco salad! Lots of chicken and the avocado ranch dressing is awesome!

    Another hyped restaurant that does not live up to the hype. Food was ok, but that was it, just ok. Service consists of an order taker and a guy that yells when your order is ready. I am not sure how other reviewers assign this a 'service' category.

    If you like fast food service and cheap food that tastes cheap and comes in massive quantities well then by-howdy your gonna love this place!

    Ordered taco plate. Just amazing food. Fast fresh and great place to bring the family.  It's like the five guys of taco's. The beans are to die for.

    Had the fish tacos. Fuzzy's is supposed to be known for them. They are okay, but not the best. The queso on the other hand was pretty amazing. Great atmosphere and the manager was friendly too! Our cashier was a bit on the grumpy side though. We'll eat here again.

    I definitely like the food, it's good stuff! However, I gave them an ok because both times that we have ordered it was for take-out and there has been something wrong. The first time the cashier did not place it to go so they had to box everything up and it looked like they shorted us on food. Then we also had food missing from our order. The second time the order didn't make it from the cashier to the kitchen so I had to wait a while until finally someone acknowledged that I was waiting for a to go order. After management acknowledged me they did have it ready in 3 minutes and apologized for the delay. I would suggest waiting a while to eat there till they can work out all the kinks.

    I love fuzzys! Food is very fresh soft taco shells are made to order. I had the bacon and egg taco, and the tempura shrimp taco. My wife had the crispy beef and shredded pork taco which she loved as well as a 16 oz shiner bock. GO to Fuzzy's!
