This is my new taco truck spot now!! First off they have $1 street tacos (corn) or flour for $2. I got 5 chicken and a side a beans! The beans are spicy and flavorful! The tacos were 10/10, and they are open late!! Best part, this truck takes card! They will give you a receipt and it was pretty quick, I was with my homegirl and our food was ready in like less than 10mins. Only thing I'll do differently is next time I'll make sure to add cheese to mine! read more

The tacos always smack! For $1 you can't complain about the amazing flavor and freshness of the ingredients. Use $5 and they add a Charo beans if you ask. read more

I was expecting a little more after reading the reviews but in my opinion, it was just alright. We got fajita, Al pastor, chorizo, and one campechano taco. Fajita was okay, looked like ground beef though. Chorizo had a really strong taste. Al pastor barely had any flavor... same with campechano. I also ordered two plain cheese quesadillas with tortilla de harina and those were really good. Little bean cup they offer was mainly just the broth, maybe a few pieces of bean mixed in it. Broth was good though. We did go to the trailer next door to order an agua fresca and fresas con crema. The water was super good, mango with pineapple. Fresas con cream was mainly cool whip. Service was quick. FYI, they only accept cash. read more

WHERE HAS THIS TACO TRUCK BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE?! Definitely some of the best tacos I've had in awhile! I stumbled upon this place because a friend highly recommended it. Needless to say, that friend now has my highest respect when it comes to tacos. These are must try tacos! The tacos are small, but they are only $1 - $2 each depending on which meat you choose. Al pastor and barbacoa were my favorite. They come with onions, cilantro, lime, and their 2 special salsas and you're in taco heaven. Just beware the green and red salsas pack a strong kick of spice, but for me the spicier the better! I'm drooling just thinking about this taco truck again. Just don't forget to bring cash cause it's cash only. Parking is kinda weird cause it's in a gas station parking lot. But the ambiance of eating these authentic tacos in the back of your truck late at night really adds to the taco experience. I'll definitely be coming back here soon! read more

Get a machete, you won't regret it. These tacos are top tier, very dangerous. My good friend suggested them to me and My expectations were through the roof because she's a chef herself and claimed these were the best in houston after living here for 7 years . Needless to say my expectations were met and surpassed, charro beans are a must, salsa verde must. I've tried their torta cubana, machete, quesadilla, tacos, and ofc charro beans. And may i say, THEY BUSS read more

Just moved to the area and was weary of trying a new taco spot. Would always drive by in the evenings and see consistent traffic here. Decided to try it out and did not disappoint. I got the gypsy Tony tacos and YUM. Everyone on IG is asking WHERE?! $2 a piece which seems reasonable for the amount of toppings in the taco. Looking forward to returning when the craving returns. Only thing is I requested frijolitos and they said they'd add em but they forgot- best bet is to follow up with the person packing your food. read more

Best Tacos ever. Just know that it is cash only. My go to is the machete con pollo, barbacoa tacos with corn tortillas, and for limited time the Birria tacos (1 order comes with 3 tacos for this one) read more

The absolute BEST street tacos in Houston. Fast, fresh and can't beat the price! I tell everyone about this place!

Do you ever finish eating something delicious, sit back and let the food you devour settle in, and then realize...wait a sec...I'm still hungry!!! Well, this happens at El Taquito Truck because you get these amazing morsels (aka what they call tacos) of food, but they are tiny. Not just small, but these suckers are tiny. Let me break it down for you by the recommended number of tacos to order: 1 Taco: you get a tease, you're not hungry at all but all your friends are getting tacos so you get one. 2 Tacos: it's like an appetizer. You know you want something to eat, but you only get two tacos because 1) you're trying to save money or 2) you're just looking for a snack. 3 Tacos: you're hungry but you're not hangry. You're the type of person who usually gets full by eating just the burger and no fries. 4 Tacos: you just completed some strenuous activity and you're pretty hungry. This is a good amount of tacos for a normal day. 5 Tacos+: you're rich because these bad boys are $2 a piece and if you get more than 5 you're spending at least $10 on TACOS. (I mean, Torchy's is expensive too but not THAT expensive for what you get.) Granted, these tacos are seriously good. The Tripe Taco is the most popular according to the chef, and I only really tried this one, but I can see it to be true. Definitely check this place out but expect the steep price of $2 for a taco the literal size of your palm. read more

Hands down one of the best tacos, quesadillas, and green sauce in the H. My go to is El Gato on Westheimer but since they don't open until late in the evening I decided to give this food truck a shot. MAN....it was super delicious and actually gives El Gato some serious competition. You know it's gonna be good when there's a constant line. Trust me you will not be disappointed. read more

If the NYC subway stretched all the way to Ecuador (and it should), then you could take the M train ta Guayaquil and you could take the "L ta Quito." Unfortunately it doesn't and you can't. But there you have it. What to get: Chorizo & Steak Tacos for $2 What not to get: Yelled at for parking at a gas pump, but you will anyway I was tempted to downgrade them to a 4 star rating because they refused to make our tacos until I moved my car from the gas pump at the service station here, whose parking lot they use. Other customers were parked there, nbd. However the girl was fairly nice about it, and complimented my gf's 7-inch pink stilettos (you know the ones if you've seen my recent Yelp photos), and hey don't judge, it was Saturday night (but she wears them anytime tbh). And in their defence, they get in trouble if their customers block pumps, apparently. Speaking of pumps, so yeah, my gf. All that aside, the tacos were some of the better taco truck tacos in town. Chorizo good... zo, zo good... Asada (Steak) good... the mixture of the 2, though, was out of this world. So I recommend you get one with the 2 combined. Slurp slurp slurp. Watch out for the salsas. As with all real Mexican food, they may blow your head off. If you're sensitive to spice levels, use sparingly or not at all. Most taco trucks score either a 4 or 5 from me because they're so cheap and often delicious, but this is one of the better ones, and I'd highly recommend a stop here on a late night on Richmond, to anyone who loves real Mexican tacos. Now I have to Taco these broken wings and learn to Fry again, Fry some refried beans. read more

Frijoles charros -comes in a small little cup, it taste like restaurant style, or something or something that could've came from a can and just got warmed up. Tacos -my goodness they're so small and cute and mini. You should definitely order 1-2 more than what you usually eat. I usually eat 3, my man usually eats 5. When we ordered here we were still hungry. It's a little greasy, but waaaay better tasting than Apache tacos across the street! read more

I was in the area helping some family move. I escaped to this taco truck once a day for the two days. Day 1: It was easily a 3 star truck. It was kind of busy I asked for no onions and extra ciltrano and extra limes. I didn't received any of that and the lime were loose in the bag . The tacos were pretty good. Day 2: 5 Stars this day. No line, food came out fast, she was much more friendly and food was good limes were in the bag and food was banging! I got the same thing both times and they were consistent in taste. - Edit: on day two the Gypsy Tom was super greasy, I ate it after using a paper towel to soak some off while it was so so so so good, it still made my stomach hurt almost immediately after - So, four stars. If they worked a little better under stress it will be a 5 star truck. Food consistently good, service is great or simply okay. read more

So i use to come here a lot--- tacos was amazing always hot and reasonable price . Recently I hyped this place up to so many of my friends to try-- now service is rude and my tacos are always cold. This cashier is so rude-- I feel she always over charging for extra tips which I'll always tip on top anyway. But i would not be driving 25 minutes + for overcharged tacos that is extremely cold just for rude customer service!! read more

Best place to eat tacos I have known the owner for many years...they are better at night staff and food...

I use to go here a lot before or after going to tropicana night club or nearby bar. Well, I had not gone since the pandemic started and well a lot has change in one year or so. Customer service - the cashier was rude and the person who called for your order was was the same. I was like wow these tacos better continue to be good with this new rude service but no! To my sad surprise my two tacos de fajita were not the same as before. I felt they change the meat and now have really chopped up fajita meat. We didn't get any napkins and or Charros beans as before. Will Thinking about going again. read more

The food is amazing !!! My boyfriend loves eating here a lot, it's quick, good and filling. This is our spot

The best authentic tacos in Houston! Always get my order right & doesn't take forever to make!

food was great, service was quick, but when we got home I realized they had not included all of our food. Its not far from my apartments so I headed back over there to let them know and get the rest of the order. They tried to say it was in there and I was like I wouldnt have come back if they were there we had a large order of about 12 tacos and 2 quesadillas. They made me pay for what we had already paid for so basically i paid twice for one thing. Check your bag before you leave because the customer service is terrible read more

Best thing since sliced bread. Tacos are amazing and only a dollar, gorditas are delicious. Literally love this truck. I have taco Tuesday and taco Thursday read more

Some damn good tacos! The prices are a bit higher than other taco trucks but it's worth it! The food took less than 5 minutes to come out and there was already an order ahead of us. The flavor was all in the tortillas! Crunchy and probably dipped in lard oil. The lady taking out order spoke fluent English and Spanish so don't be shy to pass by if you don't speak Spanish. CASH ONLY! read more

So my husband started getting us tacos from this place. They're good, and so was the sauce. My issue with them was I bit into one of my chicken tacos and it contained a nice piece of glass. Thankfully I didn't bite down on the glass, and it only scratched my gums. It's jacked up that I have to be thankful for sore gums. I'll never eat at this truck again. The good thing this is Houston,Tx, and there's a ton taco trucks who won't serve me chicken and glass! read more

UFFFFFFF. BEST JUICY GREASY TACOS EVER. smaller size than most. Best juicy fajita meat thou ! I get mine with cheese and avocado. No onion or cilantro- I just can't. The tacos are $1! And with the toppings being .50 it usually comes up to $2. Best $2 you will spend on a taco. Promise. The green sauce is so great. It's spicy and it has seeds so watch out ! They aren't stingy with the limes either. I think they add crack to the tacks because boy I crave this on the daily ! FYI ITS CASH only. But ya know with tacos this amazing just take out some cash from the ATM. so. Worth. It. My bf got the torta, wow was that amazing too. The flaky and freshness of the bread intoxicated the car with the smell of greatness. Again juicy meat & fresh ingredients. They usually have a line but for the most part they are quick. I haven't gotten anything more than fajita but maybe someday I will. read more

Some of the best fajita tacos I've probably ever had! I see why this truck is always poppin'.

Like most Houston residents I have frequented numerous taco trucks in the city and had great experiences at all of them. So, I expected more from this one. For an order of 11 tacos, we received two containers of green sauce and two containers of red sauce. When we asked for more green, we managed to get one more. Why so stingy with sauce? I've never experienced that before. We ended up eating our last few tacos dry. The chorizo was also astoundingly oversalted. I hope that was just an error that day. I don't see a reason to come back here when other great (and inexpensive) taco trucks exist. read more

Came here for lunch, service was quick and my tacos were freshly made. I got three fajita and one chicken with the cilantro and onion marriage. Flavors were amazing and the green salsa has just the right kick to it. I definitely will be back since this spot is close to my internship! read more
