Wright On Taco - Marshall (TX)

2 /5 James Ford: Ive eaten at this restaurant several times over the past year and a half, and it is steadily declining. Ive withheld my review because I dont want to damage the reputation local small businesses, but enoughs enough. In short, you’ll pay premium hill country prices for BBQ that isn’t even the best in East Texas. Don’t get me wrong; it started out great during my first visit. I gave the next four visits the benefit of the doubt based on that initial experience. But during my last visit? The brisket was dry, the beans were nigh tasteless and lukewarm, the Texas Twinkies tasted like they had been made two days before, and the queso was thick and at room temperature. Elotes have a good base, but in the end, youll get canned corn. Corn connoisseurs will be especially disappointed that it tastes as if its made from canned rather than fresh or frozen corn. Initial bite is great, and then the preservative-like aftertaste ruins it. Each time Ive had chips, theyve been rubbery and stale, as if they havent been fried long enough and have been left out too long. What began as a fantastic addition to East Texas has become some of the worst BBQ I’ve ever had. I was completely embarrassed to recommend this place for lunch to my coworkers, hoping to relive my first experience. And if your mission is just for the tacos? I mean... handrolled tortillas are decent, but there are better taco options in Marshall. Sure they wont have brisket, but the brisket here lacks enough pepper, salt, bark, and moisture anyway. ---- Thanks for the response. Ive edited the review to accurately reflect my opinion as well as your statements.

5 /5 Chad Geer: Small tasty tacos and good chopped BBQ sammies too! Will be by again! Food already eaten up. Sorry lol Rangers themed restroom works for me and clean as well

5 /5 Douglas Street: One of the best kept secrets in East Texas. Used to have to detour to Harleton on the way to or from my dad’s in Indiana but now that they are in Marshall so much easier. Their brisket elotes and leftovers taco are my favorite but you can’t go wrong with anything here it’s all delicious. Make sure to stop in if you passing through Marshall. You definitely will be glad you did.

5 /5 Mr. Evans: A Hidden Gem in Marshall, TX!!! If youre ever passing through Marshall—or even remotely nearby—you must make a detour to Wright On Tacos. What looks like a humble, unassuming spot from the outside turns out to be one of the most unexpectedly phenomenal food experiences Ive had in a long time. I originally stopped by for a quick bite, not expecting much beyond the usual small-town taco fare. But from the very first bite, I was floored. These tacos aren’t just good—they’re next level. Perfectly seasoned, fresh ingredients, and creative combinations that feel both comforting and exciting. Every taco I tried had its own bold flavor profile, yet they all had that common thread of quality and care. But let’s talk about the real surprise—the brisket sandwich. I honestly wasn’t expecting a BBQ experience to rival places that only specialize in brisket, but Wright On Tacos delivered. Smoky, tender, juicy, and piled high on a soft bun, the brisket was clearly slow-cooked to perfection. The barbecue sauce was the perfect balance of tangy and sweet, and the portion size was more than generous. Even beyond the food, the vibe of the place is just right. It’s cozy and welcoming, and the customer service is outstanding. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they’re serving—and it shows in both their hospitality and the quality of their dishes. What makes this place truly special is the mix of casual comfort and five-star flavor. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why small, locally-owned restaurants are so important to the food scene. You won’t find this kind of heart and flavor at a chain. So whether youre a local or just passing through, do yourself a huge favor—stop by Wright On Tacos. You’ll leave full, happy, and probably already planning your next visit. Five stars all the way.
