Celebrating with tacos and margaritas sounds like a great party, right? But it’s made even better when you are celebrating one of the best, local Mexican restaurants in Knoxville, SoKno Taco! This local hotspot threw a house party this past weekend celebrating their two-year anniversary.
The celebrations included house margaritas for $5, taco plate specials and a great atmosphere. And many people showed their appreciation for the restaurant as finding parking took well over 20 minutes, but this is a Knoxville wide epidemic no matter where you go.
SoKno Taco had a great staff that handled the crowd with ease. The wait was supposed to be an hour but actually ended up being about 45 minutes. And once we sat down our waiter was super helpful, as it was my first experience at the restaurant and he very much encouraged the specialty queso and chips.
After receiving the homemade, queso blanco, smoked gouda and meat queso, I knew I was in for a good meal. I ordered a burrito with carnitas with the offered rice and black bean sides. As a fair warning, the portions are on the heavy side as I left the restaurant fuller than I have in my entire life.

(Mom, and Dad, if you’re reading this, we will be making a trip here the next time you all are in town!!)
