I didn't catch the name of the guy working the drive through tonight but he had great customer service, was nice to see a happy face that knows how to talk to people kindly. Food was great as always.

This is the first place I visit whenever I come to Kansas City I grew up here eating these tacos. Nothing like them anywhere. Some people who aren't from here don't understand but we love them and everything else about this place.

Decades later and everything tastes the same! A simple original greasy taco. Ohhh that cheese! My kids swore the sauce was ketchup, haha. Not super filling but keeps you until the next meal. Eating inside is a must unless you don't mind a messy car cuz they will dissolve into a greasy slop if you wait too long to eat.

Love the deep fried tacos with powdered cheese! A northland staple. The best soft serve sundae too.

In a tub never seems to fail!!!!!! The best taco salad, and corn nuggets. Powder cheese can't go wrong the more the better. The inside looks new and remodeled and clean, it looks great.

Context and expectation being critical here, this is a locally owned gem. We're not talking authentic specialties brought to you by first generation artisans from Guadalajara. We're talking Taco Bell before they became PepsiCo/Yum Brands suckatude! Tasty fresh fried tacos of decent portion size with a unique flavor combination. While I couldn't really detect their trademark "powdered cheese" topping as a separate component, perhaps it contributes to each satisfactory bite! But from my perspective the famous tacos were not even the best thing to come out of my grease stained paper bag. Their most basic burrito which is chimichanga style fried small burrito that reminded me of those I enjoyed as a boy at my local Southern Californian bowling alley cafe was the STAR! Crispy outside, molten blend of beans, cheese and who knows what inside. They offer the same base item in several other custom combinations that I look forward to trying on future visits. Thanks to the crew for a cool new "discovery"!

A classic in the Northland. I must try. It's truly something you've never had before. But you definitely need to try it the meat and she's hot or the best. As well as the burrito if everything, or the pocket burger. Go check it out. Everything is made fresh order.

Yaaasssssss. Now this is fast food done right, in my opinion. I came for their famed Kansas City styled tacos. Don't know what those are? They're sold here. They're just not called that. In the 50s and 60s, Italian and Mexican immigrants working side by side altered the taco by deep fat frying it and dusting it with what passed for parmesan cheese in the city at the time. Usually beef, sometimes chicken, it's a blast from the Kansas City past found (and enjoyed I might add) at places like Margarita's, Ponak's, P.R.'s Place and La Fonda El Taquito and, drum roll, In A Tub and a few others. I've been on a quest for awhile to try all of these places and In a Tub is the latest. With the long burgeoning street taco scene in the city, Kansas City style tacos have become out of favor, but I think it has a place, and when done right, they're sublime. I hope they never go away! Ordered two beef with cheese and one without. What a plate of heavenly fast food that's sure to please! The cheese on the outside here is a dusting of yellow/orange substance that, well, lets just call it a food product. Do we really care? What it is I have no idea. They're heavenly, and a blast from the past. And these fit in perfectly with In A Tub's personality, what with their stuffed burgers, retro grade fast food and tongue in cheek humor (napkins noted as "Powdered Cheese Removal Device"). Love it. Yea, I need to get here more often. And do yourself a favor. Read the article on eater.com titled "The Demand for 'Authenticity' Is Threatening Kansas City's Homegrown Tacos." It's great, and a bit of history every self-respecting Kansas Citian should be hip to. I'd come back here in a heartbeat for some more of these bad boy tacos. Simply delicious. Thank you, In A Tub, for continuing a Kansas City tradition not many know. I hope there's always a spot here for these.

Finally getting to try this place which is supposed to be an iconic dining spot. Originally an ice cream shop that sold tacos & loose meat burgers (pocket burgers). Evidently almost everything on the menu is deep fried. Hope I don't get a sore tummy! Sorry didn't take any pics because we did take out and wanted to eat it while it was still warm. Everyone agreed that it was surprisingly very good. Normally I prefer soft tacos, but tried the corn shells and they were delicious! The shells were thin and crispy. I especially like the jalapeño poppers, breaded mushrooms and onion rings. Best tacos? No, but it was unexpectedly good. Btw, the bean and cheese taco was whole beans.
