These tacos are incredibly fairly priced, and luckily so because I recommend trying as many meats as your stomach can handle, ranging around $20-$30 pesos or about $1-2 USD. I tried the tripa, al pastor, and one other beef one and I loved all three, but my favorite was the tripa. It was so flavorful and crispy! I wish I ordered two or three of those, but it was good to try a variety. Just a heads up, the salsa was SUPER spicy and if you're a tourist who doesn't speak Spanish, they've got you covered with some English-speaking staff. There's no air conditioning, so eating spicy food made it feel even hotter, so I would suggest bringing a hand-held fan and asking for a bottle of cold water or Coke!

The truck parks in front of Mega during the day, but the hours can be somewhat finicky; you may go some days and it's already moved elsewhere. It's easy to find though, because it'll be the only one with a huge mass of people around it! There's plenty of grilled and raw onions to be had for toppings, along with cucumber and a spicy red sauce that brings tears to even this Sriracha-obsessed palette! Two to three tacos is perfect for lunch.

I got mine with a light cheese layer on the double tortillas. Tried 6 different tacos, conchinito, campacho, chorizo, al pastor, pollo, and mixto. My favorite by far was the mixto and al pastor; pollo came right behind. I shouldn't have eaten 6 tacos, but I'm full and satisfied, so who cares! Make the walk to patronize this family business. No a/c and no one speaks English, but just point at the meat you want on your tacos on the menu. Oh, they definitely can say "cheese" lol
