    Quesadilla
    Krystle C.

    They food is good and seasoned. The staff is nice. This last time I found hair in my food. I know it's not mines due to me cutting my hair a month and half ago. I won't be returning

    Tacos

    Possibly my favorite taco truck in Houston and I've tried quite a few. Fast service good price and quantity. 9/10 spot

    Tiny tacos

    Definitely the worst taco truck in Houston. A total rip off lol I paid $40, for 10 tacos, only got 8, and they were all wrong on top of it I hate a place that charges $2 for avocado and $1.50 for cheese, PER TACO literally nuts.

    Nachos especialas - nothing special about it

    THIS IS A TACO TRUCK!!! Please don't make the mistake of getting anything else.. my bf put me on to Tacomadre and his steak tacos are always fire but anything else I've tried was not the business.. chicken tacos were bland, i ordered a cheese and bean burrito and i ended up with a steak and cheese burrito, i also once ordered nachos and they were straight up trash.. the nachos at my daughters elementary school had more pizzaz.. bottom line get the steak tacos or don't get anything at all lol

    Bland fajita tacos. It tastes as bad as it looks even with their salsas.

    I came here because of all the excellent google and yelp reviews. Let's start off with my experience: Extremely long wait even though it was just us ordering. There was one car ahead of us in the drive through and they still took forever so we decided to just get out and order. That took me about 5 mins so it wasn't bad. I ordered the fajita tacos and it tasted like a Caucasian cooked them. They were soooo bland and not to mention overpriced. I don't know if I'd even enjoy the tacos if I were drunk. I was going to spend about $40 here because I was going to buy some for my sister and her husband. Thank goodness I didn't waste my money! Save your time and spend your money elsewhere. Not worth the wait and absolutely not worth the money.

    I don't want to have anything to do with mi madre's taco, so the name only scores 1 star. However the food is easily 5 stars both for taste and value, and the guys working here are super nice. What to get: Any of the tacos, really. Fajita (which is Asada), Pastor, Trompo, all damn good. Trompo is a famous type of rotating-spindle-carved pork meat from Monterrey and it's well worth a try. There's a ton of Trompo in Houston because if you head South West on the highway to the RGV and keep going past the border, you'll soon be in Monterrey. It's a super convenient place to stop if you're heading West on I-10 towards downtown Houston. After you pass 610 (Inner Loop) you'll often hit awful traffic. You can hop off at this exit and hop right back on with almost no fuss. It's a little trickier Eastbound, but not too much. This is yet another reason why it's a great place to grab tacos. One of the better taco trucks I've tried out of the 100 or so I've been to in the H-town area. And remember, when you're in Houston, mi madre es su madre. Oh wait.

    Oh and I ran into 50 cent

    Other than the slight piss smell that lingers around the lil truck, this place is golden. Quesadillas? FIRE. Tortas? EXCELLENT. They have the best trompo I've ever had honestly and the horchata smack. 4 out of 5 because I'd be lying if I gave it 5 simply due to the fact that I was kinda scared of getting mugged

    Large quesadilla
    Rm C.

    Not bad, for cheap eats at the food truck. greasy, meaty, cheesy. Will I come again, yes, if I'm hungry, been drinking & want something greasy & cheesy. Lg quesadilla & 2 fajita tacos- $11

    Nothing but fat hardly any barbacoa... disappointed

    The beans and Mexican rice were superb. Just a needed a tad more seasoning on the meat.

    Great tacos, but small--so make sure you order appropriately. Wait time can get a little long because it's usually busy with people.

    Visited Tacos Tierra Caliente while in Houston. Timing is funny sometimes. I had just been chatting…read morewith Gretel about breakfast tacos the day we landed in Houston -- and breakfast tacos are one of my favourite things about visiting Texas. We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

    If you like the quesadillas at Taconazo, you'll like them here. My buddy took me here after a…read moreRockets game. We wanted Taconazo, but we didn't have any cash on us. Luckily, this spot takes both card and cash! I got the small beef quesadilla, and it was loaded with cheese. The small quesadilla was $5.50, and it was pretty decently sized for a small. They have salsa set out at the counter, so you can pack as much as you like. The red salsa was smoky and SPICY. Very tasty if you like spice I see a lot of great reviews about this place. I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me
