About Taqueria Mares
Taqueria Mares is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in Knoxville (37916), TN, independently run.
There is no star rating on file for Taqueria Mares yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
It runs late, which makes it a solid after-hours option when the sit-down places have closed.
It is on Cumberland Avenue in Knoxville. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.
Call ahead or check the map listing before a special trip. Small taquerias change hours often, and our data refreshes on a schedule, not live.
In our Knoxville taco guide, Taqueria Mares is ranked #3 of 37, by taco specialisation and listing completeness. How we rank.
