    My second time having it and it was as great as the first time. They are consistent with friendly service and tasty food. They are located at a great location so parking near the truck is never an issue. I ordered the queso birria tacos. The first time, I believe I had a Bmore quesadilla. Both were great and the portion size is worth the price.

    Food truck are most definitely the preferred way for this foodie girl to dine! I happened upon the Mexican On the Run food truck at the trifecta food festival. The line was long, so I just knew the food was hit and my instinct was right. The tacos were overstuffed with flavorful goodness! While I do wish the chicken was chopped a little bit more finely, they were very tasty and seasoned well I especially enjoyed the green sauce, which just added to the amazing flavors of the pollo tacos! The prices are affordable. The staff is very friendly. The food is very tasty. If you run into the nice folks on the Mexican On the Run food truck, give them a try. You will not be disappointed!

    Amazing tacos! Mexican on the Run was the taco truck at ministry of brewing and it was delicious. We had the birria tacos, Al pastor, chorizo, and carnitas and they were all 10/10. Service was also excellent.

    Food was prepared quickly and the carne asada quesadilla was very flavorful. Loved the salsa roja. Only complaint was the quesadilla was a little soggy after only a few minutes of receiving my food but I would definitely go again.

    Solid food truck. I bunch of my friends have been raving about how good the food is here so today I decided to finally give them a try. I really had to plan out my visit here because they don't come to where I live. It was about a 20 min drive. I heard they get crowded but on this Tuesday when I arrived around 1:30 there were only two people in line. I kept is simple with the Mexican chicken street tacos. My order was ready quickly and after just a few minutes of waiting I was on my way home to enjoy. They smelled delicious. When I got home they looked great too. They chicken was a little over cooked and dried out a bit. The flavor was savory but they used a lot of fresh onion that overpowered the seasoning. I doctored them up with a little guacamole and salsa from my fridge that helped to balance it out. The portion size was more than enough to fill me up with Judy three tacos. The corn tortillas were the best part in my opinion. They were not hard yet they didn't fall apart when I picked them up. Over all it was good and I would go back again but probably wouldn't make a trip across town again just for it. I think my friends hyped it up too much and it didn't meat my high expectations.

    Birria Queso Tacos and Consume

    I stumbled upon this food truck during the pandemic and boy am I glad I did! It has its regular home base and communicates the weekly lineup via Facebook, so it's really easy to know what hours, and days you can catch them and where. I've been slowly making my way through the menu. So far I've tried a mix of their tacos (they offer Chicken, Birria, El pastor and Carnitas), one of their specialty burritos, and though it's not a consistent menu item their chips and queso. I've legit been happy with everything I've tried, but my go to's are the Chicken or Birria tacos done queso style. They're pure cheesy deliciousness and if you grab a 3 pack and go all Birria it actually comes with consume aka (the dip!). Man oh man the dip takes it to a whole other level and keeps me coming back! I'm sure if you give them a try you will too!

    I have been researching Birria tacos and Mexican on the Run came up on my radar. My aunt mentioned she was in the area and spotted the truck. It was at that very moment I knew I had to pull up on them. I sashayed across Sherwood road and instantly smelled the deliciousness, through my mask might I add. My aunt ordered her tacos but I wasn't so sure what I wanted. The lady taking my order took the time to explain my options which I really appreciated. I settled on the three queso tacos option. I mixed and matched the birria (braised beef), pollo (chicken) and carnita (braised pork) along with the transmission oil dipping sauce, or whatever you call it. Anyway the birria itself was very oily and my least fav but still very yummy. I just know I need a bib next time. The pollo and carnita were amazing. The meat was flavorful and very moist. Let me talk to you about the dipping sauce. It perfectly coated my already delicious taco. It took it to the next level. As far as price, it was a little pricey at 21 bucks with tip. However it was well worth it.

    Came to the location of the food truck 2 different times but only have eaten here once. The first time I went on a Friday around 1 (they opened at noon). The line had 20+ people in it & no spaces to park so I left without trying it. Second time here was a Thursday around 5:30,5:45 (they closed at 6) The few people in line had already ordered and were waiting for their food. Ordered the birria quesatacos and consume Tacos were juicy & fresh, dripping with sauce. It was my first time trying consume. Didn't have much flavor by itself but was good with the tacos. Food came quickly and the staff were friendly

    Checked out the truck over the weekend and it lived up to the hype! We got queso tacos with al pastor, chicken, and of course birria! We also had a side of consome (the marinade from the Birria I believe) which we dipped our tacos in. Flavor was great on all the tacos and it was a nice change up to standard tacos! Only downside is they were out of chips and drinks that day, but I bet they have great tortilla chips! We waited in line maybe 5-10 mins and then for food maybe another 10 mins. We walked to the liquor store next door to get drinks which worked well. Are the tacos in the car since we couldn't wait! Definitely recommend trying their food out!

    The truck!

    Absolutely incredible! I will for sure come back to get them again. I ended up seeing a video online about this place and love birria tacos. Totally recommend this place!

    Friday Night Dining with #thoseWilliams!! Tonight we FINALLY made it to @mexontherun for their infamous Birria Quesotacos ! Donell @d.m.w.76 tried the braised beef and marinated pork quesotacos which he really liked (Rating 9). He also had the red beans & rice. The Birria tacos with the consommé were yummy (8.5). The consommé was so rich! Alyse enjoyed her chicken tacos but wanted less onions (8). Overall I'm glad we finally tried these Birria tacos, they were worth the wait! Where to next?!?!

    The el chapo burrito is definitely not worth 12 bucks. For the size and taste more like 7-8 dollars.

While the service can occasionally be, well, less than 100% friendly, if you are nice to the folks working there and treat them with some level of respect, you will get the same back. Last night after a particularly hard week, I was in need of a fried chicken fix. I went in and ordered a few pieces and asked about the Ghost Pepper Wings. The very nice young woman behind the counter started working on my order. She realzied they didn't have enough of the wings and offered to give me boneless wings as a substitute. I agreed, and then as she was packing the box the fresh wings I wanted came out of the frier. She asked me if I wanted to get the full order of wings and offered that I could keep the other thing she had packed up. It was done with a smile and I appreciated the kindness. One other note - their restrooms are not locked so you don't need a code to get in which is a rare thing in this day and age.

I was hoping to park on the street to run in but ended up driving around for 10+ minutes before ending up in the lot. Turns out my parking was free so it worked out just fine. For the food, I got the cheese pizza with prosciutto and the mango habanero wings. The pizza was fantastic, and I really liked that you can order a half portion which was great for 2 people.

    Ive been to this establishment several times in the past…read more Due to the previous experience being good I decided to dine here. Parking anywhere downtown especially the inner harbor on the street is very limited; and the parking garages are insane at times. I found parking and made way to this establishment at the Power Plant. There was a Flippino festival going on at Power Plant as well. When we entered the establishment, we were immediately seated. Seating is only at high tops or the bar. We started off with a couple drinks, old bay wings and cheesesteak sliders. The drinks were ok, not 5 star rating. The cheesesteak sliders were okay as well. We ordered Old bay fries which came out great. After digesting the wings, sliders and fries we ordered the Peppers and Onions pizza with added spinach. The pizza came out very light. Ive had this pizza previously and it was toasted and not doughy. There was very little cheese. The pizza disappointed. So after all, I was very disappointed with the choice of this establishment today. Absolutely nothing but the friendly attentive staff was a plus. The staff were beyond attentive. It could be a bad day but definitely not good since I havent been here in about 3 plus years. The prices has increased tremendously as well. I wouldnt say not to go but based on today, I would be skeptical to return again for myself in the future.
