After a long day at the beach, we decided to stop at this place after hearing a lot of positive things about it. The atmosphere was full of energy, which is expected, and not too bad. The staff was very friendly and courteous, which is appreciated. The menu selection was decent, and gave you a variety of different types of... More

A party of seven of us had lunch at Taco Boy last week, and three of us ended up terribly ill the next day. From what we have been able to ascertain, it was the guacamole appetizer that the three of us all ate that must have been the culprit. Someone at our table had commented early on how odd... More

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. First, the service is horrible and rude. We had a large party and it took us a few tries to find the correct size table. They first had us in a booth that was much too small. Finally we were moved three times before getting to a big enough table,... More

Taco Boy was a moderately-priced restaurant surrounded by many more expensive options. We started with the appetizer trio (guacamole was not great, but the queso was good) and then had a selection of tacos. Word to the wise, their hot sauce is EXTREMELY hot.

We were looking for food to take back to our room and relax instead of eating out and got a pizza in town and then stopped here for something to compliment our little "in room picnic". We ordered at the bar/hostess station and chatted with the friendly hostess while we waited for our food. Our food was ready pretty quick... More

I don't know how they can mess up food that BAD! Horrible. My husband found a 3 inch chicken bone in his steak nachos. I ordered a chicken quesadilla that was pathetic. The end pieces of the quesadilla had nothing in it. Zero, just a flour tortilla. It was pricey for the quality. The service was also called crappy, the... More

Couldn't wait to get back Folly Beach for Taco Boy. Very disappointed in the quality. Nachos were small and soggy, tacos lacked toppings and fish didn't taste fresh. Good price on tap beer. Recommend Surf Bar for fish tacos.

Ended up at Folly Beach needing soem food. Several people suggested Taco Boy and said it did have a funny name that we would remember. The wait was short and the food was great. The margaritas were very good. It was close to the beach.

We arrived in Folly Beach on Cinco de Mayo and found the Taco Boy. The food was very good and the place was festive with those celebrating Cinco de Mayo. I had a Baja taco and my wife had a regular taco with the trio chips. All were very good and the service was great!
