    *Drinking game: Drink every time you read the words "fish and chips"…read more If you know nothing else about me, you should know this...I am 80% comprised of fish and chips. Fish and chips may be my fave thing to eat in the whole entire world and that's not an exaggeration...you can take that to the bank. Seriously, if a place serves up fish and chips, I'm ordering it. Doesn't matter if they're ridiculously fancy and fish and chips is only on their menu as a joke, I'm ordering it and I won't leave until they deliver (not that I've ever seen a place have joke items on a menu...I'm just saying if someone wanted to mess with my emotions that's the way to do it and that's how serious I take my fish and chips). The only thing I've ever had at The Reef Mobile Kitchen is the fish and chips. There's a chance this isn't always on the menu and if it's not, I'm not going. Although I highly doubt fish and chips aren't always on the menu. If you want to know where they're at check out their Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/reeftruck), but it's almost always a safe bet that they'll be at Foodville. So since it's the only thing I can speak on. Scratch that. Write on. Let's delve into the fish and chips. Plump pieces of white fish, I'm guessing cod (much like my beer identifying abilities, my fish identifying abilities are almost nonexistent). Crisp, batter on the outside served along side large fries, a couple of lemon wedges, and tarter sauce. It's all really good and done in-house! You will not regret this. And the truck is easy to spot. Big blue. That's all you need to know. Check it out and definitely check out Isaac M's review for a deets on the Mojo Quesadilla that sounds ridiculously amazing. May have to order that along side some fish and chips next time. And another plus is since it's a food truck you know you're getting a meal under $10.

I had two fish tacos and the panko zucchini fries. The Unnamed fish taco was my fave. It's all about the chipotle aioli. I'm having dreams about the panko zucchini fries. Can't wait to go back!!!!

Had multiple thousand Google reviews and they were all close to five stars. So I knew I had to check it out. It was super close to my hotel, so I popped in the car and found it without trouble. Trouble. Again, there is pretty limited parking so it's kind of hit and miss whether you'll find a spot or not. Fortunately, I did. When you walk up to the place, the building itself is pretty nondescript. They have a nice selection of outside seating, and your window to order is outside. Very nice lady at the counter gave me helpful suggestions and so I ordered three tacos and an amazing lime and cucumber fresca. Went in and sat down inside and was pleasantly surprised by the interior. It definitely had more of an upscale bar vibe to it than a Taco shop. The waiter that brought out my tacos told me that it turns into more of a nightclub after hours. I may have to go check that out. The tacos themselves were absolutely off the chain! The tortillas were blue corn and everything on it tasted so fresh and so wonderful. The carnitas was fantastic, the brisket Taco was to die for and the blackened shrimp Taco was one of the best I've ever had. Had. The flavors were so balanced and on point, it was one of the most satisfying taco experiences I have had!! I will probably hit this place up a couple more times before I leave El Paso. If you are in El Paso, you probably already know about this place. But I'm telling you what you cannot go wrong for tacos and that lime/ cucumber fresca! Bottom line? It's about 10 hours drive from Las Vegas to El Paso. And this Taco shop will give me a great reason to do a road trip anytime. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out!

The atmosphere is modern, fun, and welcoming -- perfect for a date night, brunch with friends, or just treating yourself to amazing food and cocktails. I honestly love it here. Every visit has been a great experience with flavorful food, refreshing drinks, and a vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The tacos are simply AMAZING and you can truly taste the quality in every bite. Definitely one of El Paso's must-visit taco spots!

    This is my most favorite taco food truck in Juarez. Despite…read morethe fact that it's in the middle of a neighborhood and is very small I still love the quality of service and food. Here you will encounter all kinds of people from all socioeconomic backgrounds. From white people, to doctors, lawyers, families, young, old.... It's very diverse. And nice to see how our love for these tacos connects us. But anyway, it gets pretty crowded during the evenings which is hard for you to place an order especially if you're ordering one by one. People are shoving and pushing, and hurrying you up to get your salsa or whatever it is that you're using so they can use it next. Not everyone is that rude, but I have come across some people who can't wait for their turn. Which is why I usually place a full order, get my salsa, and my other needs and walk to free space (sometimes to my car) and peacefully enjoy my meal. Most of the time a group of mariachis or musicians will start playing as you eat or interact with those around you. As far as the tacos go, it's only "tripas". There are 3 cooks, very nice people, one makes them crunchy, the other soft, and the other campechana which is mixed. Napkins are handy, as well as salsa, lemons, salt, pepper, etc. They have a bench or two so you can sit. During winter they have heaters. And they also have a sink to wash your hands and a restroom. Never used the restroom so I wouldn't be able to tell if it's kept clean. Parking is hard to find, it fills up very fast. But as soon as someone leaves I usually run for it before someone arrives but that's just me. Other than that I still love this place. Love to meet new people and listen to good music. This place has been around for many many years. The first time I went was in 2010 but the business has been there since way longer. Moved to California came back and it was improved and of better quality till it occured to me to add it to yelp. So in case you're cruising around and are hungry this is a good interesting stop! :)

The regulars are Crave, Sweet Addiction, Food Gallery, and The Reef. The 5th spot changes out weekly. Foodville is entirely outside, but there's plenty of tables and benches (most with umbrellas) if you do want to eat there. Although, I don't recommend eating outside during an El Paso summer if you're in work clothes...sweaty doesn't look good on anyone. If you want to get an insight to the food, you really have to check out each food trucks Yelp reviews. But just know, not one of these food trucks will disappoint you. Beyond wanting to come to Foodville religiously, you may find yourself stalking some of these trucks around EP. We all do it, we won't judge you!

As korean, i would say the tacos were a good fair attempt. Its hard to find a good korean place in EP even owned by Koreans so i was pleased. My fav was the chicken. Sweet and spicy. Overall, a little salty for my taste but i guess i am salt-sensitive. 4 tacos, salad, and a bottle of water for 8 bucks. Not bad. Hipster-isque atmosphere which keeps me feeling young :) I would say its worth the trip, at least for the first time but nothing to go gaga about.

    These wursts and the best wurst! Absolutely love this food cart and glad to see there are other…read morebrat enthusiasts out there in EP. San Galo's brats have a very unique flavor. They're homemade so the quality really does shine through. I'm not even entirely sure how to describe the flavor other than to say it has a rich, buttery (most likely from frying) and a well seasoned taste. It's very wholesome and would definitely pair well with a beer. The brats may be a tad smaller that what you're used to out of packaging, but they are plump so I found them filling. And the kraut (homemade with purple cabbage...seriously took the presentation to the next level) and grilled onions were perfect toppings. The currywurst I tried was slightly higher in price, but came with a pretzel and salad. The currywurst was lightly drizzled in what appeared to also be a homemade curry ketchup...major points for not taking the easy route. The curry ketchup had a slight kick and a subtle sweetness. Yaaaaasssss! I wasn't crazy about the pretzel since it was on the thinner side it's hard to have a soft inside...it wasn't hard, just very dense. I think the pretzels could stay the same thickness if they were brushed with butter and salted a touch more. But overall I liked the currywurst dish. The cart itself is pretty cool looking and appears to be ran by a duo. Lights illuminate the side which is a nice touch. And the smells coming from the grill are absolutely positively heavenly. If you run into this cart, grab a brat!
