Carne Asada, pork, Carnitas, and white chick tacos
Tara C.

I first tried them at the Vail Village market over Labor Day weekend and then I had to stop again and go to their food truck in Minturn when I was passing through. Wow, these tacos are fantastic! And they're priced just right. I had the white chick, carne asada, and pork carnitas. The pork was my favorite, but they were all delicious. The chips and salsa were also fantastic. The chips were fried right then and there, so they were crispy and hot. It was the perfect September day to sit outside at their patio by the food truck and enjoy a great taco in the beautiful mountains of Colorado.

This review is for the Rocky Mountain Taco Trailer at the Vail Farmers Market. I was excited to try them out because of the many good review. In all honesty the tacos where garbage, had a bite of each and put them in the trash. Carney Asada: the meat was closer to mush than nice diced steak, the texture reminded me of a can of roast beef hash. The flavor was very bland, the avocado covered up the beef. I added some of their spicy salsa on my second bite and it did not help much. I think the biggest issue with the taco was probably the texture of the meat. Hippie Crack: Couple of issues. They do not double the corn tortilla so this was busted right out the gate, could not even pick it up without most the filling falling on the plate. The filling reminded me a Taco Bell Burrito, just a mush of bland babyfood. I hate to be this negative in a review, but it is a rare occasion that I would throw a taco away without finishing it, especially when I was hungry. I am not sure if the other locations food is this bad or it was just this one off trailer. Cannot recommend or return.

Yum!! So delicious!! We went to the Rocky Mountain Taco food truck that is parked at the main location for Vail Brewing Company (41290 US. HWY. 6). **This is different than the "tasting room" in Vail Village. It's about a 5-10 min drive away and worth it!! There is not a food truck at the tasting room.** Food was delicious (especially the carne asada!!) Grabbed a few delicious beers from the brewery to have with our meal and enjoyed some live music at the brewery on a Thursday night. Highly recommend!

Hooray for bomb Mexican food in Avon Colorado!!!! (Bows down and goes into Wayne's World monologue) "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!" We were so excited to find that the taco truck was nearby our lodge. Just down the street, we found Rocky Mountain Taco truck. The smell coming from the truck was a good enough indication that we had made a great choice. Roll up, order, grab and go! Easy and hella cheap. Can't go wrong there. Two tacos for $5. We were super excited because they offered vegetarian tacos as well. Yay! Carnivores and vegetarians were happy after this stop. The vegetarian tacos were potatoes with sauce and veggies. Regular tacos had carne asada. We also ordered cheese quesadillas and those came with two different cheese (cheddar and mozzarella). The dillas were bomb!! Perfect place for a quick, cheap and tasty meal.

After a full half-day of skiing in Vail (meaning, we started with first chair, quit before one, but still got almost 19,000 verticals in), led by our friend John, who lives in Edwards and knows Vail (and BC) like the back of his hand, we were ready for some grub and grog. This is one of those off-the-beaten-path food trucks that only locals know, paired with Vail Brewing Company for a symbiotic set-up (grub-grog), but it is separate, outside of VBC in the parking lot, in a truck. To order, you go outside of VBC and walk up to the window to place your order (thank goodness it's not cash only), and they give you a buzzer to let you know when to pick up. There are a variety of sauces you can help yourself to when you pick up the food. I went with 3 tacos (see photo - the carne asada, alambre, and hippie crack, which is vegetarian); it was about the 'right' amount of food (the reason I'm able to lose weight on this 10-day ski trip!), but look out if you ordered the tacos - TWO people eating it will still pack on the pounds even after a hard day of schussing. Will likely return if we're out this way again.

This place is so Delicious! Every time I'm in Vail I head over to Rocky Mountain Taco at the Vail Brewery location. There is always a line but I appreciate that line because it is a telltale sign of how good the food is. I'm vegetarian and I love the hippie crack. What takes this food to the next level is the habanero Crema sauce. That sauce is so good I could drink the entire bottle. I wish they sold the sauce in jars so I could take it home. The people who run this taco truck are good people. I witnessed them host a charity event along with the brewery and the turnout was unbelievable. Again, good people serving great food is rare and refreshing to find especially in a little mountain town. Keep doing what your doing!

These tacos are great, for the price! My family got the 2 for $5 tacos (I failed to take pics) and I got the $9 burrito. Delicious flavors for each of the items.

Cali style nachos.

Lots of people love this place. However, one look at the menu and I noticed they put guacamole on their carne asadas. Enough said.
