Upstate residents who enjoy pizza and tacos can have the best of both worlds at this Greenville restaurant.
Tacozinni, a modern and casual pub combining the flavors of both foods, was recently named among Yelp's top spots to eat breakfast tacos in each state. Taco Billy was also named in Asheville, North Carolina.

Read on to see where the best restaurants to experience Taco Tuesday are in the Carolinas.
Feast on pizza and tacos at Tacozinni
Tacozinni is a restaurant specializing in craft tacos and pizza served on a traditional wood fired crust or on a gluten free, cauliflower crust. Located in Greenville's West End on historic Augusta Street, the restaurant also serves smoked applewood wings that are a fan favorite among regulars, as well as a variety of salads, from the Beet & Blueberry to the Caprese Avocado salad. One Yelp reviewer got to try the restaurant out for the first time thanks to a coupon he received in the mail and plans to visit Tacozinni again.
"Got a coupon in the mail which led to our visit. Was very pleasantly surprised. The shrimp taco was very tasty and different in a good way!" he wrote in the review. "Salads were particularly good. A little pricey, but great vibe in the restaurant and the staff which raised it above 'taco place' status and justified the expense. Well worth a visit and we will certainly be back. Thanks for the coupon introduction!"
Taco Billy is the place to bring taco fiends
In North Carolina, Taco Billy has two locations: the first one is in West Asheville over on 201 Haywood Road, with the second in Black Mountain on 117 Cherry St. The menu offerings in each will be similar, so you can expect a good time no matter which one you decide to visit. At the restaurant, you can have a go at building your own taco with fillings like bacon, eggs, sausage, veggie chorizo, avocado, or refried black beans. Breakfast tacos are served all day long and come in their own palatable flavors, with selections for vegan eaters. Yelp reviewers seemed overall pleased with the service and variety of tacos to choose from, with some pointing out the adorable billy goat themed artwork displayed across the restaurant walls. Here's what this self-proclaimed "taco fiend" had to say about their Taco Billy visit:
"These tacos were out of this world. Some of the freshest, flavor packed, and unique offerings I've come across. I'm a taco fiend and these satisfied my craving x100. There was a group of 6 of us and the service was friendly & quick. I tried the Sam Cris pork taco (YUM + spicy). The guacamole was cold, chunky perfection that helped to cool down the spice. Definitely would recommend this place to any Taco Lover out there! For those vegan friends, they have plenty of options for them too!"
