The draw at Tipsy Taco is the tacos-and-tequila pairing the name hints at: a long taco menu with a wide choice of tortilla styles, a bar mixing margaritas, and loaded nachos that come up again and again in reviews. Diners point to the range of options, from flour and corn tortillas to lettuce wraps, and to gluten-free items marked clearly on the menu with staff who know the questions to ask.
It is a small, growing Upstate group with several locations around the area, and this Duncan spot sits right off I-85, which is why it shows up in so many "we were passing through" reviews. Locals lean on the two-taco lunch special, and the kitchen tends to send out generous portions, a well-liked queso, and chips and salsa that arrive fast.
Service reads as quick and friendly in most accounts, and the room runs lively, which suits a group lunch or an easy weeknight dinner as much as a solo taco run. Happy hour runs from 3 to 7.
