    Birria Nachos
    Bailey D.

    Drop whatever you're doing and make the drive down to Union for the most authentic and delicious Mexican food in NKY! Taco Queen is truly something special ... and came highly recommended by some local friends. My husband and I pulled up and parked in front of this cute little no-frills food truck around 7 p.m. on a Saturday. There was one other customer waiting for his meal in his car as we made our way up to the truck to order. Their menu is pretty standard - pick your protein and your preparation (taco, burrito, quesadilla, etc). They had a small sign at the ordering window advertising Nachos as their special, which I knew I had to try. I got them topped with Birria, while my husband opted for a couple of tacos with Chorizo and Asada. The young man who took our order said he'd bring it over to our car in a few minutes when it was done. There is a small, sheltered area to seat and eat, but it was a bit chilly for us to do that. Our order was delivered to us about five minutes later, filling our car with the most delicious scents. We could hardly wait until we got home to dig in ... but somehow we managed. We tried the tacos first - topped with traditional cilantros, onions, and some freshly made salsas. Both were quite tasty - although be warned that the Asada has quite a kick! The Nachos were loaded up with beans, cheese, pico de gallo, and pickled jalapeños. The Birria was perfectly tender - and paired well with the corn chips and saucy beans. The chips did soak through a bit in transit, but the flavors were so spot on that we didn't mind at all. I didn't manage to snag a picture of their hours, but it looked like this food truck is closed on Sundays and Mondays, and open for lunch and dinner throughout the rest of the week. Plus, they even take card payments - so there's really nothing stopping you from visiting Taco Queen ASAP!!

    If you are craving Mexican I would absolutely make the drive out to Union, KY and find the Taco Queen! You will not find better Mexican food. The truck itself sits back on an empty wooded lot and they have a few tables under a covered pavilion. With being so close to the woods there were quite a few bugs, so make sure and use some bug spray, or grab the food to go. The menu itself is pretty large and plenty of options to choose from. They have the most meat options I think I've ever seen at a Mexican joint. Came on a Saturday evening around dinner time and there were only a few other customers so ordering was very quick, and the food came out within minutes. I ordered the chicken nachos and they were fantastic! The price is extremely fair and these were plenty for two people to share. The nachos come fully loaded and the toppings were all very fresh.

    I love Mexican food trucks, and this one is much better than most. The food at this truck is exceptional, and the servings are generous. The fellow working the truck is pleasant and quick. The truck is set back off the road, but worth seeking out. I give them my highest recommendation. Will definitely return soon!

    Birria tacos were amazing! The food came quick and we could sit in the car with the AC on until they brought it to the window.

    So the first few photos has great reviews. We don't eat in a lot, we prefer to pick up otw home…read morefrom work for the family. This use to be a fav of ours (the salsa is literally my fav salsa in my area of restaurants and there are a lot!) but each visit they seem to forget more and more. For a place with a free salsa bar they are the WORST on forgetting stuff. So today I placed an order, you usually get a teeny tiny salsa and a bag of chips complimentary.... I ordered 5x side of extra salsa (which I was charged for) I received two salsas one tiny bag of chips. This is literally what I get complimentary at most restaurants, and you charged me extra?!?!? Anyways the hostess/waitress totally went and got me my extra salsas and another bag of chips. God love her. I left and realized omg they didn't give me my kids sopapilla (sorry if I misspelled). I had to turn around and go back. Again the lady was sweet as can be. She got my dessert and threw in some queso. But then I get home. The order for Al pastor tacos..... Said steak cooked in a spicy salsa..... nope it was dry unseasoned steak in a corn tortilla with a bunch of canned pineapples. The order I placed said it was served with pico and tomatillo sauce (received neither), and like I said COVERED in canned pineapple tidbits..... did not say that in the description. And again NO SAUCES.... My son gets mozzarella cheese sticks.... NO MARINARA like it said in the description.... The cheese sticks were so over done the breading was empty.... It was burnt cheese in a pan with no sauce. I love the food here and my hostess/server handling my order was super sweet but it's honestly the last time I let this place get one over on me on a take out order

    We stopped by on a whim, and boy were we so pleasantly surprised!!! We've been to many Mexican and…read moreTexMex places so we assumed this would be not much different. WRONG! The menu has so many more options--including my favorite horchata beverage! The salsa was so delicious, as were the refried beans, and everything else. The service is fantastic! We did not have to wait for drink refills or someone to check back with us. Our food arrived quickly and as ordered. They were working together so well, so KUDOS!!! It has a fun and laid back atmosphere which is perfect for all family and friends. We will definitely be back!
