Swanky's Taco Shop in Cool Springs: Posted

[redstategunnut]

However, the Cajun Steamer next door is not. The Cajun Steamer has pretty good food and a staff that has all the attributes that superficial man seeks.

ouch. Swanky's Taco Shop = best fish tacos in town.

[Guest HvyMtl]

Got Contact info on Swanky's so I can tell them I will spend my $ elsewhere?

I wonder why business owners do not believe the sign is a "Go ahead and rob me at gun point" sign to criminals...

Oop, the sign says "no guns," guess I can't bring my Saturday Night Special in and rob the place, says the criminal...

Seriously, let them know you go next door. Every time. Tell them what you spent, and tell them how many friends you have that also will not spend $ there...

[trblmkr13]

They will be out of business soon the food is horrible

[TMMT]

The Cajun Steamer

Does that come with the meal or after?

negative... Oscar's Taco Shop has the best fish tacos...

and Oscar's is not posted.

[TNTitan]

hmm never had Oscars. Youve had Swankys before?

[Guest JHatmaker]

Man, when did this happen? I was there about a month ago and they hadn't posted. Thought their food was pretty good. First PF Changs now this.....oh well, they aint getting my money.

+1 on Oscars, but it is now known as "Taco Express." He's opening another across from Centennial High for you east side types. I did not know PF Changs is posted. In the last week, my office mates and I have spent a couple hundred bucks at Cajun Steamer. They know my policy, so we won't be going to Swanky's.

yep, Swanky's is good stuff... (never had their fish tacos though ...just know they'd have to be unbelievable to beat Oscar's).

if you've never been to Oscar's, you owe it to yourself to go. best tacos I've found since I left TX...

+ Oscar is a great guy. give it a try, you won't be sorry...

hmmmm... I could've sworn it was originally Taco Express, and changed the name to Oscar's???

but it's been a couple weeks since I was there....maybe he changed the name back?

[TNTitan]

ill try it out.. but dont be so confident. try one at swankys... change your world.

[PaiMei]

This must have just happened. I was there last friday and there was no posting. I live right across the street in the apts so I'll check sometime tomorrow.

[Guest JHatmaker]

I was surprised. My wife called in a to-go order a couple weeks ago, and I walk in the side entrance, and they have a legally posted iron sign bolted to the side of the door, same thing up front. They really went to some expense to have the custom signs made.

No no, don't try one, can't give them anymore money

Is Changs on west end posted? If so, I know a few folks that work there and will tell them how their posting is....

[redstategunnut]

I stand corrected. It's Oscar's. I had my name change reversed. I have nothing to add on the fish taco debate, but if there is better salsa in Williamson County I'd like to know where. Swanky's, PF Chang's and that filthy Waffle House on 96-W are off my list because they have posted.

[PaiMei]

Just went to Swanky's tonight. I could find NO posting anywhere. Unless Im missing something there is NO posting. I checked the front entrance and all the front windows.

A couple of days ago there was a small sticker on the glass on the front door.

Oscars is the place,worth the drive. I think he called it Taco Express when

it was a couple blocks down the street.

That was the Burrito Express. He called it Taco Express when he opened it in its present location, then changed it to Oscar's. My family loves it, I've been going there since he opened.

I'm not sure. I haven't been to that location in years. Ever since they built the one out here, I rairly make it down that way. May need to one day when I don't have anything to do and check.

[MikeW]

I asked my buddies that work there and they didnt have a clue what I was even talking about (non-gun folks). I told them to look as they enter the front door and report back

We need a law passed that says if a business owner posts not allowing lawful HCP holders to carry, then they are held liable in the event of a patron is assaulted, harmed or killed on their premises (including the parking lot).

If they do not post then the owner is then not liable for the actions of the lawful HCP holder in the event they use their weapon in an act of self defense.

Basically, you remove a patron's ability to defend themselves, then they assume the legal responsibility to provide a completely safe environment. If they can't... then they don't need to deny a patron the means to defend themselves.

So I think the manager needs to escort me and my wife to our car.

(It would be hilarious if a bunch of people started asking the manager after a meal to have staff escort us out to our car. LOL!!!)
