Arriving an hour after opening, the writer landed waiting number 1 and got seated within 5 minutes, ordering the Nashville hot chicken taco, pulled pork taco, and Okinawa tacorice alongside a Jose Cuervo shot and a tequila highball. The Nashville hot chicken taco — mild enough even for a spice wimp — was the clear favorite. ## Good to know - **Address**: 51 World Cup-ro 19-gil, 1st floor, Mapo-gu, Seoul - **Weekday hours**: 11:30–22:00, break 15:00–17:00, last order 14:00 / 21:00 - **Weekend hours**: 11:30–21:00, break 16:00–17:00, last order 15:00 / 20:00 - **Parking**: Nearby public parking lot - **Waiting**: Register on the tablet by the entrance - **Nashville hot chicken taco**: ₩11,000 - **Pulled pork taco**: ₩11,000 - **Okinawa tacorice**: ₩17,900 - **Jose Cuervo shot**: ₩5,000 - **Tequila highball**: ₩8,000 - **Alcohol menu**: Jose Cuervo shots, tequila highballs, imported bottled beer *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* ## Taco Dot in Mangwon-dong, visited an hour after opening Today I'm introducing 'Taco Dot,' a Mangwon-dong favorite ❤️ It's famous as a taco place with long lines, so I went about an hour after opening! ![Taco Dot's exterior tucked into a residential alley near Mangwon Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-01-8kxqa-900.webp) ![The alley view in front of Taco Dot Mangwon Market Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-02-1n1m8-900.webp) ![Taco Dot's eye-catching sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-03-opmuc-900.webp) Turn off the alley near Mangwon Market and the shop is tucked into a residential area, but the sign has such a strong presence that I immediately went, ah, this is it haha ![The waiting registration tablet beside Taco Dot's entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-04-5apvi-900.webp) ## How's the waiting? Register on the tablet, wait 5 minutes Right inside the door there's a tablet where you register for a table, and since we were the first ones there, we got number 1 and waited about 5 minutes! ![Tables inside Taco Dot's main dining hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-05-1rnds-900.webp) ![Taco Dot's interior with Mexican-inspired decor](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-06-a4uij-900.webp) ![Seating and walkway in Taco Dot's main hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-07-12go2-900.webp) ## Inside the restaurant and the self-service bar The interior wasn't as cramped as I expected! I'd read it was small so I thought it'd be all bar seats with no room to move, but as you can see there are about 4 tables in the main hall and plenty of space to walk around! Going further in, there's another space ![An additional seating area further inside Taco Dot](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-08-1fnwh-900.webp) The restroom is inside the restaurant too, which is convenient ![The hallway leading to Taco Dot's in-store restroom](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-09-1kfy8-900.webp) ![식기류와 담요가 준비된 타코닷 셀프바](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-10-10l13-900.webp) The self-service bar has everything from cutlery to blankets all set up ![Drinks lined up at Taco Dot's self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-11-16hx7-900.webp) There were a lot of drink options too! Oh, and since the alcohol menu wasn't spelled out in detail, we did quite a bit of searching ourselves. They serve Jose Cuervo shots, tequila highballs, and imported bottled beer! ![Taco Dot's 2-piece taco menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-12-1j8bp-900.webp) ## Taco Dot's menu board Let me show you the menu.

Looks so good ㅠㅠㅠ The tacorice was bigger than I expected, and it had way more ingredients packed in than I thought it would! ![Okinawa tacorice piled high with ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-21-us6el-900.webp) ### Nashville hot chicken taco — the clear favorite First off, this Nashville hot chicken taco is my confident number one pick.. legendarily good. The chicken's outside isn't just crispy, it's ultra-crunchy — like an upgraded version of the patty in that Mom's Touch psycho burger, you know? The chicken alone is delicious, but with fresh veggies and sauce drizzled all over it, there's no way it could taste bad,, I was worried since it's literally called hot chicken and the menu description says it's spicy, but even for a spice wimp like me it was just mildly spicy, so if I could only order one thing, I'd definitely order the Nashville hot chicken!! ![A Nashville hot chicken taco topped with crispy chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-22-ko3b4-900.webp) ### Pulled pork taco The pulled pork felt like tender meat soaked deeply in seasoning and put together. Like taking that braised beef you get with Bonjuk porridge, slicing it thin, then tossing it heavily in delicious Mexican seasoning!! The juices burst out too, so when you have no appetite, I feel like you could just polish off 4 pieces of this ![A pulled pork taco topped with seasoned meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco-23-1qk07-900.webp) ### Okinawa tacorice The tacorice actually has rice inside. I ordered it without realizing, but well, it's literally called 'rice' in the name, why didn't I notice. You pour the sauce next to it and mix it all together, and I couldn't believe rice pairs this well with taco flavors ㅠㅠ if you feel like tacos alone won't fill you up, try this one!! It was my first time trying it and I was totally into it, the kind of dish that probably has no haters 😍 True to its reputation as a place worth the wait, it was packed with nothing but delicious menu items, and I'd love to come back again 👍 ## Where it is - Taco Dot Mangwon Market Main Branch (타코닷 망원시장본점) - 51 World Cup-ro 19-gil, 1st floor, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 마포구 월드컵로19길 51 1층 - 37.5551649, 126.907553 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%83%80%EC%BD%94%EB%8B%B7%20%EB%A7%9D%EC%9B%90%EC%8B%9C%EC%9E%A5%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.5551649,126.907553,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-mug-table/tacodot-mangwon-nashville-hot-chicken-taco/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
