The Good

The fish taco was the pick of the four, and it wasn’t a close call. The fish was very fresh and fried to a proper crispy crunch, and the chipotle mayo was thoroughly appetising, sitting beautifully alongside the corn salsa. Absolutely the one to order.

The beef taco was very good too, built around house-made pulled brisket that was super juicy and tender, with plenty of flavour behind it. The pickled onion mix and the tomatillo sauce contrasted the richness of the meat nicely, keeping each mouthful from feeling heavy.

The pork taco was also good. The pork was a little on the fatty side, but it delivered big, unmistakably porky flavours, which is exactly what we want from it.

The Mediocre

The chicken taco was okay, and that’s about all we can say for it. It came with pretty much the same accompaniments as the fish taco, which only highlighted how much more the fish had going for it.

The Bad

Nothing.

The Verdict

Lady T’s tacos were a solid effort across the board, and the fish taco was the clear winner thanks to its very fresh fish, crunchy fry and a chipotle mayo that worked a treat with the corn salsa. The house-made brisket was a close second, juicy and tender with the pickled onion and tomatillo sauce cutting through it, while the pork brought big porky flavour despite being a touch fatty. The chicken was the only one that left us shrugging. If you’re ordering here, lead with the fish and the beef.

Would Penguin Eat Again?
