THAT is a damn good taco truck! Simple menu, friendly, awesome…read more We got two steak tacos and a steak burrito. Two mini steak tacos were simple and delicious. Meat is bore barbacoa meat but still delish. Onions, cilantro, corn tortillas. Yep, awesome. Burrito was huge and tasty. Ordered their grilled jalapeños and onions on the side. Comes with two sauces as well. Mexican Tamarind soda tastes a little like bubbly sweet tea. If you like to bike through Perry, I highly recommend stopping here. It's a little yellow truck north of Casey's on 1st St. A short two minute walk from the biking trail head.

Spicy but not too spicy, big but not too big, spendy but not too spendy (after all I keep coming back...) Just as a personal preference I'd like to see some greens on top but maybe this is how they make these things back home. upper dater: got some tacos the other day and they were so good that we're back to 5-stars. thinking a lack of familiarity with the 'torta' may have clouded my second assessment, sorry folks.

Wow, what a find, and all thanks to Yelp!…read more A few blocks east of Duff Road on the south side of Lincoln Way, Rico's Tacos is a wonderful combination of customer service, personality, and a quality food product. We visit Ames frequently for family and were comparing taco trucks on Yelp before making our initial trip to Rico's. Manny was working the truck and is a good guy who knows his product. He guided me to their burrito, which was amazing. The tortilla did not fall apart, and its contents were spectacular, merging asada beef with scrambled eggs and other items to yield a great meal. I loved both of their sauces, with the red-hot red narrowly defeating the tasty green salsa! There is a lot of parking in this location, and the truck's staff makes it a positive experience due to their interaction and people skills. A taco truck isn't supposed to be an elegant experience! Thanks to customer Jessie, who visited as I was ordering and used Rico's for her wedding catering, giving me keen insight to their food!

I wish I would of asked more questions about Kates Kookies. They are a food truck that we stumbled…read moreon in the Walmart Grimes parking lot. My family is big cookie fans and their food truck (actually a converted small camper) is really cute and eye catching. They have a few things on the menu; boat of chocolate chip cookies, stuffed (frosting) cookie sandwiches, root beer floats, cookie sunday, and of course milk. You think okay, chocolate chip cookies....not that special, but you are wrong! These little mini bites are heaven sent. Maybe one of the best chocolate chip cookies I have had (and gives the Iowa State Fair bucket of cookies a run for their money! - don't come at me ). I think they taste really buttery. Which are mwah, a chef's kiss! The guy working said the truck is out of Perry, Iowa but not sure if they are newer. Regardless, if you see Kates Kookies around, go check them out!

But I'm happy to report Kates might be the best I have ever had.. ) So imagine my surprise in seeing a cute little camper outside of Hy-Vee saying... you guessed it.. Vegan cookies but not only were they Vegan they were Gluten Free as well.. So I just had to get some, for my wife, kid, and I.. As she is GF and I'm vegan, and well my kid will eat anything.. Here is where the story get's sad.. After a super fun conversation with the staff I took my vegan cookies to my car and at ALL 8 of them I purchased before I even got out of the parking lot! THAT's HOW good these cookies are.. So to my wife and child, I'm sorry I ate all the cookies. And to Kates... thank you for the delicious cookie lunch that I didn't share with anyone :)
