Neighbors Artisan Taqueria - DeLand

Conveniently located! Their tacos always hit the spot! A staple when I’m downtown at a local watering hole. ?

This was one of the first restaurants I tried in downtown DeLand on the Friday night Farmers Market and it was amazing. I got the Raver neighbor (pictured), and on another occasion the Plain Jane Neighbor. They both were excellent! I loved the flavors of both. It loses a star for service only because of that wait time, otherwise staff was very nice and accommodating. The homemade ranch is the bomb. As far as seating goes there 's only 4 tables and chairs so when it 's busy it 's pretty hard to find a place to sit, but other than that I highly recommend. Parking: You will have to use the public parking in downtown DeLand. It 's free. This business does not have a specific lot for it 's business.

I really love this place! It's conveniently located next to a brewery, and on Fridays, they host an Artisan Farmers Market. The tacos are delicious, and my go-to option is the rowdy neighbor taco. I also tried the donuts, but they were a bit undercooked this time—hopefully, they'll improve on that during my next visit.

I just waited 45 minutes for the worst tacos I've ever experienced. I ordered the Upstate Neighbor, and it was missing half of the ingredients it was supposed to include. Additionally, it was overloaded with blue cheese, making it nearly inedible. I also paid $13 for it. To be honest, I'm really not happy with this meal.

Next, I asked for my water. I was informed it was in the ice cooler, but when I checked, it was empty. Instead, I was given a warm bottle of water that had been sitting on the floor. In summary, I paid $15 for a bottle of warm water. I believe if a sauce contains meat, it should be clearly labeled in the description. Also, how is it possible that the meat quality is so low that it can be mixed into a sauce, yet they charge two dollars extra for a black bean patty? What kind of place makes meat cheaper than beans?
