The Mariah's Taco Spot food truck was at a Cultural event in Greensboro this weekend and they did not disappoint!! I ordered the bang bang shrimp tacos , with wings and a side of rice. The tacos were so unique and delicious. The wings came with a side sauce that really hit the spot. I really hope they make a trip back to Greensboro in the near future. read more

Mariah’s Taco Spot - seafood tacos & wings - Food Trucks Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I have been meaning to do this for months.... My daughter gets the tacos and one day she came home with a special that had chicken wings as rice... she said you can have some ( ate all rice and chicken) When I tell you their chicken wings have me in a chokehold. The rice is good but I literally love their chicken. So tender and marinated so nicely. The owners are so nice and one day they were not out and I literally asked myself, what will I do now???? lol Anyway, if you ever come across their truck -stop and grab anything, and you will NOT be disappointed. Food is amazing and I cannot wait to get my wings this week!!! Can't wait to frequent the brick and mortar, when they open!!! read more

The special for the $5 fill up wasn't avail. Customer service wasn't pleasant no hello, welcome, no smiles at all or thank you for trying. The tacos were soggy. The meat for the Birria tacos was plentiful however soggy, no cheese and bland while the shrimp tacos were soggy as well and very salty. And for me to say salty that means it was salty because I like my food very well seasoned when I cook. This was the hubby and I first time trying and we do not recommend. We were excited to try because we've been waiting to have time to see what the location of the food truck would be only to be disappointed. We're not try to shame the business just not happy with what we rec'd for $42 and gas wasted... read more

Omg I'm not even finished with my food I had to stop and write a review. How have I gone this long without trying this place?! I ordered the wings, which come with a chipotle ranch and small cup of consommé. The wings were crispy, flavorful, and didn't require sauce because they were so good on their own. However, the chipotle ranch was amazing. The consommé though!? WOW that stuff is so good I wish I ordered 2 more sides of it!!! They were out of the blue soda I ordered so they offered me a blue lemonade. I thought it was great! I'll have to try the soda another time. I'll definitely be back. read more

Mariah’s Taco Spot - 6pc wings - Food Trucks Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Birria tacos were extremely bland and lacked flavor. Tacos way too soggy. The rice was extremely too salty. The website needs enhancements. Why isn't there a better description of the wings advising of how many wings you get per order? Why are you advertising a coupon code for a free soda via email, yet, there's no section on your website to select a soda, added the code at checkout and didn't receive a free soda with my order. Why advise of your food truck address and location on both email and on your Instagram stories yet when we arrived in person, the food truck was not at the address provided via email and Instagram which was a waste of time and gas. Ended up having to back track and visit the Thrift Road location instead. I won't be patronizing again. Way too unorganized and food was horrible. read more

We hired Mariah's taco truck for our company event and I couldn't say one bad word, the food was incredible, service was awesome, and communication was on point. Every guest absolutely raved about the food, we won't hesitate to use them again. Definitely don't wait on this one, they're the best of the best! read more

I've been hearing of chatter about Mariah's Taco Spot which is a food truck filled with taco goodness. Marriah's offers five varieties of tacos; chicken, beef, chipotle surf & turf, salmon and shrimp and for the chicken wing lover they offer chicken wings with your choice of two tacos and seasoned rice; be sure to get the baby oil to dip the wings in and to drizzle it on the tacos. Marriah's is not like your average food truck, if you miss her at her Freedom Drive stop you literally have to follow her on instagram to see where she'll be next. Besides having great fresh cookedfood Miles and the rest of the crew still take time with the customers, even with the lines wrapped around the corner you get service with a smile. read more

My son took us here while in Charlotte today. There was about a 20min wait to get to the ordering window. Of this food truck. I could see there were only 2 people working all the orders, and it was a beautiful day, so we didn't mind. Once we reached the window the guy asked if we could give them 5 min to help knock some of their orders down before taking ours, we said sure. (That was really like a tease because by this time I could smell the deliciousness and my stomach was growling! LOL!) Once my son ordered his food and I ordered ours, we were each given a pager to notify us when the food was ready. Most people were waiting in their cars. Once the food was ready (about 15min), the pager went off and we picked up the food at the second window. By that time the line had almost tripled in length! That's a great sign of their reputation because they weren't in a common area to find. (And there were a lot of food trucks out in Charlotte today). I gave hubby his two beef quesabirria style tacos and I had one with the consommé dip along with my southwest chicken taco. THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! They did forgot my onions and cilantro on my 1 beef taco, other than that it was scrumptious. The 4/5 stars is because they could not fulfill our original orders due to running out of chicken wings. My son and I were both going to order the wings and tacos (6 wings and 2 tacos); my son was also getting two orders of (8) wings. They could only fulfill 1 order of wings. That was disappointing. Maybe next time.... read more

They are slow AF. Waited over 30 min for some wings and rice. It was all cooked already. Shame really bc I like to support. Black owned businesses. After all that the food was really salty. It was inedible. read more

With all the hype, the Tacos weren't that great. The food truck came to my apartment complex. I ordered 2 Shrimp and one chicken taco. They were very salty and the broth was watered down. The presentation was awful. $23 including a juice for this nonsense. Highly disappointed and will never order from them again. read more

Mariah’s Taco Spot - "Allegedly" a shrimp taco all I said was no onions and this is what it looked like - Food Trucks Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Best tacos I have had since moving to Charlotte. Some sort of special is always being run so please follow them on IG to catch those. At first I was skeptical about trying wings from a place whose focus is tacos: but I'm glad I tried them! read more

We had these outside of Halo last weekend. We ordered the chicken and birria taco boxes and they were both delicious! The birria was some of the most flavorful I've ever had! Service was great and quick. Would highly recommend! read more

Heard so many things about this place so decided to give them a try. I placed the order for pick up and the food was okay. I feel that it may be overhyped but the ramen and broth was tasty but lacked the spice factor. I also ordered the beef taco and seafood (they sold out) so I ended up with a beef taco and shrimp taco. Overall the food was pretty average. read more

Don't waste your time if you didn't order online. Stood outside for 15min just to even get my order taken, only 2 orders taken before me because everyone else just needed up leaving, just for them to tell me they are out of wings. I arrived at 6:40 and it opened at 5pm and was supposed to be open until 9. It was clearly severally understaffed and ill prepared. Don't waste your time. read more

Had heard about Mariah's taco from the food truck. Finally got the chance to try the ghost city kitchen location. Unfortunately we were really disappointed. The wait for food for everyone was 30 - 40 mins or more. We tried the wings/ beef and chicken taco combo and a specialty salmon taco. All of the food lacks flavor and simply tastes like salt. The wings needed some sort of sauce option. The tacos are small quesadillas basically meat cheese and salt. There is a consomme beef broth that comes with the tacos and it was the only thing I liked in the meal. It would make a great beef broth soup. I'd skip this one folks. Not worth the wait. read more

Her food is always good there is a little bit of wait but it's definitely worth it! This was my first time trying the wings and I was not disappointed at all. But the salmon tacos have been my favorite so far. read more

Recently enjoyed Mariah's Taco spot (food truck). The staff were very patient and polite; they were super busy but managed to remain polite and professional. I had the oxtail and shrimp taco and maaaaaaaaan listen...Melt in your mouth is an understatement!!!!!!! This taco literally melted in my mouth in every bite. 1 taco is pretty hearty and they do not skimp on the oxtail meat or shrimps. I had 3 tacos and I forced the 3rd down because I didn't want it to go to waste/or have to reheat. I'm going back ASAP with the rest of my family because I cannot stop thinking about the deliciousness of those tacos. read more

Mariah's Taco Spot is one of my favorite places in the city to grab a taco. My go to order is the Chicken Birria taco, and an order of wings!! Listen the consommé is unmatched and the wings are always seasoned to perfection. If you haven't stopped by yet, then take this as your sign !! You'll be greeted with great food and a smile. I recommend you place a pre-order. Trust me!!9 read more

Love the quesabirria tacos, very delicious, it's a food truck so the service is general nothing to rave about, however I do love how attentive they are with everyone's orders. The food truck is beautifully painted and it looks appealing and draws you in to wanting to try their food. read more

If you haven't been here yet your missing out. Was so worth the drive. These were the best tacos I have had since moving from Los Angeles. Oh and don't forget the dipping sauce. read more

I visited Mariah's Taco Spot on 8/17/23 and was highly disappointed. Please note that this review has nothing to do with the food since I never got a chance to taste it. The review is solely based on the service experience. I placed my order around 5:30pm for 3 birria tacos. Placing the order was simple enough although I didn't like the fact that I couldn't see an estimated time of order completion prior to placing the order and submitting the payment. However I have ordered from Crav'n Caribbean on several occasions which is also located in City Kitch, and never had a bad experience so I had high expectations for this establishment as well. I was wrong! After placing the order I picked my two year old up from daycare and navigated over to Thrift Road in traffic. While in route I received a text message stating that my order would be ready for pickup at 5:40pm. This was great because my order would definitely be ready upon arrival after driving in traffic. I arrived at 6:09pm with my toddler in tow, scanned the QR code to alert Mariah's Tacos that I had arrived, and waited a few minutes for someone to appear at the pickup window. My kid is getting a little fussy, but again, I'm thinking that we'll be in and out in no time. After a few minutes someone arrives at the window and I give him my name. At this time he informs me know that my order isn't ready. I tell him that I received a text message that it was. He says that their working on my order. Now I'm pissed. While I understand that things happen, I should have received an updated text message with a new time. What's up with the text message system and overall communication? Had I known in advance I could have arrived prepared to wait. We could have been chilling in the car with his snacks and tablet while waiting or I could have brought those items in. I wasn't able to get a parking spot near the entrance so I already had to walk in the heat carrying him. And the thought of going back and forth to my car in the heat due to the lack of communication didn't sit well with me. Then telling me that you're working on it...what does that mean?!?! Are you bagging my order? Or am I in a queue waiting for my order to be prepared behind others? At this point my toddler is antsy and I'm just completely aggravated. I decided to leave because I didn't know exactly what time my order would be ready. Maybe they started preparing my order after I scanned the QR code to alert them of my arrival. If that's the case, then there should be a pop up on the website to state that prior to submitting payment. These are details that customers should be made aware of upfront. I expect better regardless of the fact that it's a ghost kitchen. One things for sure...I won't be back. And if you decide to try it for yourself, plan accordingly and be prepared to wait indefinitely. read more

The food was amazing! I've been wanting to try it for sooo long and have finally tried it this Sunday and it was worth the hype. That blue soda was AMAZING! Can't wait to try the strawberry soda next. The most exceptional part was the customer service experience. I was having issues with doordash and contacted the business. I spoke with Mariah and she was amazing and humble. She went above and beyond to make up for the issues I had with doordash. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you. read more

Mariah’s Taco Spot - My All Time Favorite!! Yes I am the #1 customer - Food Trucks Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Food truck on Freedom Dr near I85. I've seen this place for months and finally dropped in yesterday. I had a coupon that incentivized me to make the trip but after returning to my vehicle I realized the cashier did t actually take the amount off. Check your receipt before you leave!! The food was delicious!! The servings are very generous. I love that the tortillas are grilled before filling - adds a depth of flavor. The wings are fantastic and the jus/sauce served with the entrees is another layer of fantastic flavor. I will warn you though, this is not food that's easy to eat in your car!! It's messy and I ended up with a trail of sauce down my shirt!! Next time I think I'll take my truck and sit on the tailgate to eat. read more

The food truck was tucked away, but it was well worth it! The tacos were a good size and sooo soo good. I was surprised how three tacos were so filling. Would definitely go again- have been thinking of them. read more

Came here from Durham,NC tacos were good and loved the flavor. Service was good and I can also appreciate the design of the truck
