This spot is probably my current favorite taco truck. They can get pretty busy at night so I would…read morerecommend calling in your order. The tacos are well priced at $2 each unless you get the tripas which are a bit more. The pastor is my favorite meat followed by the campechano, suadero, and tripas. The fajita and bistek were just okay to me. I typically get tacos and the pastor quesadilla which comes in a small or large. I love the grilled onions that each order comes with. The green salsa has a good kick and the orange is too spicy for me. Overall, this is a great taco spot. Service is good and everything is nice and clean. I've come here quite a few times and there was only one instance where they got my order wrong which they quickly took care of. I highly recommend trying it out!

This is a busy food truck with a good amount of designated parking spots, though, whenever I come,…read moremost of them are filled up. Food takes about 10-15 minutes. Both corn and flour tacos are $2 each, as of July 2025. Tripa tacos are extra, at $3. They also give you grilled onions instead of raw onions for the tacos. Been here a few times and there were inconsistencies with flavor almost every time. Specifically, the fajita, chicharron, and trompo are sometimes not as flavorful as in the past. Nothing bad, but sometimes a letdown when I know how good it can be. If they were consistent, I'd probably give them 5 stars. Also, one time, I noticed the flour tortilla sizes were inconsistent, which makes me think they get them handmade from somewhere. FAJITA: Good flavor, moist, tasted just like the suadero. I didn't like that it's in tiny chopped pieces, even though the menu says they're in strips. SUADERO: Good flavor, moist, tiny chopped pieces, tasted just like the fajita. BISTEK: Very chewy. Too chewy. Accidentally got it again because I got it confused with the fajita, and, that time, it wasn't as chewy, but it was still tough. Definitely not juicy like it says on the menu. Wouldn't get it again. TRIPA: Great flavor, moist, large and slightly crispy pieces! TROMPO: Good and moist! CARNITAS: Decent. Not super moist, but not dry. CHICHARRON: Good! Very soft. CHORIZO: Good! Light spice. Very flavorful! Crumbly. FAJITA TORTA: Light, fluffy bread. They're never very generous with the meat in their tortas, but the fajita tastes great! POLLO TORTA: It was fine. Fajita was better. Got small complimentary CHARRO BEANS because they forgot which meat we asked for in the tortas and we had to wait another 10mins. They were pretty good.

We've come so often that if a certain girl is working she knows our order and brings water and tea and asks if we want the same as always and we usually say yes. I don't think we've actually tried the fajitas here. We typically get chorizo and eggs, papas mexicanas, some extra flour tortillas, and a side of rice (it comes with refried beans). We can split this, be full, and it's about $20 between us!

The Jamaica juice is very refreshing and flavorful. I appreciate that they bring out three salsas with their chips--and it's hard to pick a favorite! There's a warm red, and cool roasted and green salsas. If you want delicious, affordable Mexican food, this is a great option. Normally seeing some reviews that mention bugs would make me squeamish, but it seems they have changed management and there are not the cleanliness issues they once had over 5 years ago.

The English is very well, it's all authentic Mexican style and they collect any memento's for the lion theme. There's allot of beautiful original art work. The woman there know the menu's back and forth and know exactly what you want. My Spanish is very broken but even with my picky palate, they were able to make my plate perfect!. Great price and great people. It's very clean, friendly and wholesome. My nine yr old daughter, didn't think she would like it and ended up asking for seconds on her flautas.

It has faded signs, window bars and handwritten posters to disguise the treasures inside. I trampling into a nearly empty restaurant but filled with loud Latin music from a jukebox. There was just a couple of guys sitting at the bar looking intensely on their phones. It must be a popular restaurant bar on weekend nights. Because its operating hours matched with a local bar club few doors down and a country western dance hall behind here. As I walked in, I was greeted by a señorita didn't speak English. She asked a señora in the kitchen for help. She couldn't get the first word out. So, I spoke Spanish to them to break the embarrassing moment. Then, she handed me a menu in English and Spanish. I didn't think I had enough time to dine in, so I only looked at the pictures to order a takeout. As I sat there waiting for my food, I saw more families with kids arrived. They seemed to know their way around here. My combinado plato was perfecto. The pupusas with fresh curtidos were scrumptious. I can't wait to get more pupusa on Tuesdays when it's only a buck each. Sitting at a chair looking out thinking, why haven't I had courage to come here? It's not that bad as i thought.

Ambiance - the music here is what makes it enjoyable. Anyways, it's pretty casual here for dress codes. There's a lot of natural lighting here. Seating is not a lot, maybe can sit up to 30 people max. There are no tablecloths on the table, so not a formal dining restaurant. 4. Food - I love coming here for tacos if ever I'm in the Energy Corridor area. These tacos hit the spot. I'm still learning the menu, but one thing they got right are the breakfast tacos. They have 3 kinds of sauces from mild to super spicy. Tacos here are not too crazy and fancy, just the way I like it. They got the basics down. 5. Cleanliness - restrooms are well kept and so is their dining area. No complaints.
