I wanted some Birria Tacos for lunch so I searched on Yelp to find a place that was near my job. I…read morefound Rico Mac Taco and decided to check them out. I ordered Birria Tacos and a Sope with Steak. It took about fifteen minutes to prepare and the Sope with the Steak was delicious. It was my first time ever trying one and the Steak was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The Birria Tacos were okay. The meat was packed with flavor but the Birria Taco was on the dry side. The Consomé was lacking flavor and I didn't fill the love cooked in the Consomé. The customer service was great and the staff were very friendly.

Ok, here we go! I was in the mood for Tacos-so I stopped by for lunch.(My budget for lunch is…read morenormally UNDER $15.00) I ordered three Tacos for $11.00 and I wanted some rice and beans, a side was $4.75 (the tacos come with radishes & cilantro-no worries.) My bill came out to $16.91 including tax. The steak tacos had plenty of meat-but the seasonings were lackluster at best but the fresh lime helped out to give it some taste/flavor. The corn tortillas were doubled up as per usual, heated on the grill and filled with steak & cilantro and they didn't break (surprisingly)! I was underwhelmed- the tacos were just tacos, nothing special, no flavor profile was evident: except the cilantro & lime. The steak (really beef meat) was chewy; very chewy... so sad & disappointing. The rice and beans is what really threw me off (please look at the pic). It had what looked like yellow rice stir fry vibes with frozen peas and carrots=sided with refried beans!!? There was literally a miniscule amout of taste, flavor and eye appeal. The rice seemed tasteless and I tried to mix the refried beans with the rice and made it worse! In my 35t years of Cheffing-it-up, I've NEVER seen Spanish, Mexican,Puerto Rican or ANY Latino rice and beans look and taste like that! ( I WANTED A KNIFE TO SCRAP MY TONGUE!!!) I do understand that different cultures prepare their rice & beans differently, but this was the first and last time I see and taste something like this and call it rice and beans! Oh my... I rate the rice and beans [negative]-2.25 out of 5 stars and the tacos 1.75 stars out of 5 stars. This was an interesting experience to say the least. Thanks Chef Clinton

I proceeded to order Guacamole with Chips, a Tex-Mex Chili Taco (Ground beef), a Grilled Chicken Fajita (with onions and peppers), Grilled Steak Fajita (with onion and peppers), and a Shrimp Fajita Taco (with onion and peppers). All tacos were on a soft tortilla by choice. The food at this establishment is very fresh and their service is quick. The prices are also very reasonable for what it is. The tacos were good and the guacamole was average to me. Overall, I would go back and get the tacos and try other items on the menu. I wish they offered a few more options for tacos such as chorizo.

Everything was perfectly seasoned, and I didn't need any additional salsa, pico, etc., which I usually do add to enhance the flavor. I also had a taste of the Mexican rice and steak, which was also very good. We had our meal there, and while the tables were mostly empty, they were very busy with takeout orders, I will keep that in mind for the future. Is this place in a great area? Maybe not the best, but you can't judge Taco King for that.

Both the fish and shrimp were cooked just right, and the toppings brought everything together beautifully. The agua de Jamaica was refreshing and well balanced not too sweet, which I appreciated. The only downside for me was the elote. The flavor was good, but it was a bit too spicy for my taste, and I couldn't finish it. I love heat but it wasn't enjoyable. Overall, a great experience and I'd definitely go back for those tacos again.

We try to visit a different food truck every time visit, so this time we went to La Patrona and we weren't disappointed! I appreciated that they had someone on the sidewalk taking orders and handing out menus for a smooth experience. Their 5 tacos for $10 deal stood out to us, and the quality was great. Very flavorful birria, and the combo Marino had fresh seafood that you wouldn't expect to be impressed by from a food truck! Great drinks and desserts too. They packaged everything securely if you were taking it to go. We would definitely order from them again on a future visit to the food trucks!

I didn't have much time when I visited, but I ordered three pastor tacos (which I believe is the minimum order; I love it when a place let's you order one taco of multiple types). The tacos were good, but are not top tier in CT for me. Relative to the best places, the tacos didn't pop in terms of flavor or texture. They were above average though. No shame in that. Four Stars

She had the carnitas tacos and an enjoyed the chicken mole enchiladas, both of which were delicious. The black beans were particularly good, with my wife eating most of them from my late. Service was good. Ordering is at the front counter, taqueria style, with the meals brought out when they're ready. This is a no-frills establishment, with drinks coolers and a refrigerator full of fruit and desserts right in the dining area. The walls could use a coat of paint and the music is a bit too loud. It's definitely not a Michelin star restaurant but the food was extremely good. We'll stop in again next time we're in Monroe at dinner time.

Every so often we crave tacos and we take the hour long drive from Rhode Island. Since finding…read morethis truck we've been only coming to this one. Before finding this one - I had to order tacos from one truck and then empanadas and churros from another truck. Not any more! This truck had it all. I've gotten tacos, nachos, empanadas, limonadas, mole chicken, birria (in all forms - nachos, burrito, tacos, and even ramen!!!), pinchos (meat skewers) and more. The $10 nachos are the large square container. It's freshly fried tortillas loaded up with all of the toppings. The 5 for $10 tacos are the best deal here. They really load it up with meat. The only thing though is this truck doesn't give you the charred scallions with the order. I love the chicken mole here. They give you plenty of mole sauce. It comes with rice and seasoned pink pinto beans. It comes with one thigh but if you're lucky you'll get an extra drum stick. Try to remember to bring your own utensils. Even if it's other plastic ones. The utensils provided are really flimsy and can't really cut meat. If you're on keto - like me - then you gotta try the pinchos which are meat skewers. I have tried the pork and the shrimp. The pork had a sweet and tangy sauce on it. The shrimp was really delicious what ever dry rub they used on it. These cost $5 each. I like this truck because they really hustle. They make an effort to draw you in. A few months ago I was lucky enough to be there on a day where they were handing out menus. I love it. Now I keep it in the glove compartment so I have a description of everything served there. This last time I came to Long Wharf- the guy in the truck was waving me over before we fully parked our car. This truck had a steady wave of customers. The truck next to it didn't get a single one the whole time I was there. And we ate our meals sitting in the car! Our last order was 10 steak tacos, an order of chicken mole, and 2 bottled drinks. It was $42 for the three of us. They take many forms of payment even Apple Pay. If you're ever passing on the way to NYC- stop by and relax and enjoy the beautiful water and coastal breezes. Bring a picnic blanket and make memories with your loved ones.

The women taking orders and handing out food were rude and short with customers, and if you don't speak Spanish they get visibly annoyed and impatient with you. There's no excuse for treating paying customers with that kind of attitude. If zero stars were an option for service, that's what I'd give. Also, check your order carefully before you walk away. Most of our items were missing and we had to go back and ask them for the food we already paid for. Won't be coming back. There are plenty of other trucks in the same lane who actually respect their customers, and that's where my business is going.
