Excellent tacos... and the proprietors are wonderful people. Very friendly and will do what they can to make you happy! I ordered a Adobo Chicken taco, a Steak taco and a Al Pastor taco with pineapple. They were all delicious, and that huge jalapeno was a hot surprise, lol. I can see why El Taco Taco is so popular! read more

We were happy this food cart was open when we went. Nowadays it can be a gamble when comes to dining at any food cart. We got some tacos and potato taquitos to share. Everything was good, but we were surprised to see cheese whiz on the potatoes. If you're into cheese whiz, you'll love it. The people working there were super friendly, and they made everything fresh. There was no wait at all. read more

Tacos were $3/each. Large fries topped with sautéed steak looked great though they used cheese whiz vs. real cheese. Pretty standard Mexican food cart fare at good prices. Location is convenient being in the thrift store parking lot, close to the Eugene Costco. Service was fast & friendly. read more

I was driving and decided that I really wanted a good taco. Like an authentic street taco. So I threw that into a quick search and this was the first place that came up. Conveniently I needed to go to Costco right next-door so I gave it a try. I've driven past it lots of times, and was already curious about it I didn't want anything too big or I would have gotten the trio of Beria tacos. Instead, I want for Al Pastor in the "big taco", an extra large corn tortilla. You could also get it with flour that I think they make on site. This taco was the perfect size for the snack that I needed. It was definitely bigger than a street taco I'm pretty loaded. But it was absolutely delicious! Love the flavor, texture, aroma. It had it all. While I was there, I noticed that they do breakfast burritos and tacos also. Definitely plan to hit that up soon! read more

I've always drove past this taco truck and it's always been closed but me and my partner have always wanted to try it! When in line at Costco and looking at yelp we saw that they were open and rushed over. We tried the Birria burrito, sirloin steak tacos, and Al pastor tacos. The meat is all seasoned very well and tender and the Al pastor was juicy. The birria was cooked well. The slices of the cucumber is so refreshing. The salsa is good not too spicy. They give a lot of salsa which is great. The horchata is not too sweet it's really good. Finally found a good taco place in Eugene!!! read more

One of my favorite places to get a burrito. I get the steak burrito without tomatoes or onion (I'm allergic) and I've never had a bad one. They always throw in a handful of homemade tortilla chips with the bag, which hit the spot perfectly. I moved across town and it's not as convenient for me to go now, and I'm really missing it. The horchata is also really good, it's not too sweet and not too heavy on the cinnamon. The people working have always been nice and they get the food out pretty quickly for how busy they are. They give you a beeper, so you can sit in your car while you wait if it's raining. read more

This is THE best Mexican food in Eugene, certainly the best on the north side of the river. I wish so badly that they were open on the weekends and had some kind of seating area. The food is consistently good. They are friendly and fast and give chips with burrito orders, as much salsa as you want and yummy extras with tacos like cucumbers and onions. It's a good price for great food! read more

Do yourself a favor and come here for the quesabirria and friendly service. Each taco is filled with delicious, melt in your mouth meat and cheese; the consome is spicy and full of of flavor! They try to only make enough food for each day so they do sell out early on some days. So if you find them open while you're driving by, stop and thank me later. read more

Upon entering, we only were able to find high table seating on metal, backless stools and one low seater booth. I am physically unable to sit on those high stools due too balance issues because I have had Multiple Sclerosis for 16 years now. I may look " normal" while sitting still but my mobility and balance are an ongoing struggle in my life and has robbed me of so much. My husband got us waters then got in line when i noticed a sign on the table saying to please order before getting a table. My husband was already in line and ready to order and pay for our food. Less than a couple of minutes of me sitting there I was approached by a blonde staff member and she touched the table and asked me if I had someone in line to order. I replied that I did. She then told me that there's a long line building up and that I would need to leave the table because we hadn't yet placed an order. I explained to her that I am disabled ( even though I should not have to even do that ) and that I'm physically unable to sit at the high tables. That the only available low seats, inside and outside, were all taken other than this one booth. She then repeated what I had just told her and then asked again if I could only sit at the low tables, to which I replied yes. I was then told that I needed to leave the table and could go sit on a bench by the door and wait there and that the rules are for everyone regardless of the situation. I was so embarrassed and shocked that I started to tear up and told her that we would leave and went to motion to my husband that we had to go. As soon as we got to the car I started to cry and he was asking what was going on. He was so upset that he went inside to talk to the manager. He explained everything that happened and that I'm disabled and there was nowhere else for me to sit and eat. She apologized and said I could make a reservation to come back later for a low table. He told them no and that I was already embarrassed and crying. I'm trying to figure out how, since there was an open table that accommodated my needs and I was there, why this was such an issue. There was plenty of seating open but the tables were tall. What if there's another person unable to order for themselves because of a disability or they're elderly etc. ? Maybe make all tables low tables if a rule like that is being implemented? The business was happy to take our money but wouldn't give ea place to sit and eat. On a good note, we wound up going to Laughing Planet and had not only excellent service but really good food. I got the Korean BBQ Bowl with chicken, which they happily subbed for me, and it was so fresh and good. I really loved the quick pickles that came on it and would recommend it to anyone to try.

Their boba was not ready so I tried brown sugar crystal instead and it was tasty and chewy like a stiff jelly. Getting the drink at 0% sugar plus this add-on was plenty sweet for me. The server was friendly and helpful and answered my various questions. I wanted to understand if the drink thru is drinks only? I have been harboring a desire for "drive thru sushi" for years, but alas, their drive thru is drinks only. As for the food, the veggie taco was very tasty. It seemed to contain warm rice, tofu, avocado, cucumber, lettuce, cilantro, carrots and ginger dressing . The shell is a fried combo of seaweed and rice paper. The tamago and oshinko rolls were standard fare, tasty but nothing special. The restrooms were marked gender specific, but the women's room at least was a one seater with a locking door. For parking, I was told it is ok to park in the spots marked "reserved."

Staff was friendly but there was a dude that looks miserable being there. Maybe he had a bad day? Food was good and atmosphere is very fun. Restaurant seemed super clean. Lots of boba selections! I would definitely come back! The tonkatsu ramen and the katsu bento were both very yummy!

I love this truck!!! The food is delicious and you get real bang for your buck. The portions are generous and the service is fast. I hope they stay where they are since it's within walking distance of my workplace so it's a great lunch option. read more

I like that it has refried black beans with guacamole (and no cheese!). My kiddo got the bean and cheese burrito (always her favorite). My husband got a taco plate that came with rice and beans. You order at the counter and they bus the tables. They even gave us complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa was very fresh tasting and not spicy so all three of us enjoyed it! Nice spot to get a bite and sit down without being too fancy but still getting the eating-in feel.

During a beautiful sunny day, I stopped by with my family. We got some food and drinks! All the food was super fresh, colorful and picture perfect and even better, it tasted delicious too! I had the spring salad, which was a special going on. It was good, but I'd say it had a little too much black beans but regardless I loved it. I also loved the carrot habanero sauce it was unique and so good! My drink was really good too. I had a house margarita and I noticed on their menu they serve pichers which I'd definitely love to try with a few other people in the future!

Worth a stop for a delicious meal!
