    Birria Tacos
    Dee Q.

    My favorite place to grab tacos around here! Huge fan of the birria tacos, and they're always so nice too!

    Kimberly W.

    The Quesabirria is absolutely AMAZING and the service is great! This is my 2nd time here in the past 4 days! This time I got 2 - 1 for now and 1 for tomorrow.

    Great spot for tacos and tortas. Easy to find truck on old Montgomery highway. In front of Publix. Quick service, reasonable prices and authentic food.

    Asada and al pastor tacos
    Jackie A.

    This jumped easily to my top three taco spots in Bham. And all of them are taco trucks. The location in front of Luckie's Pinestraw is unassuming. I passed this truck for the past year without stopping. It was a wasted year. The tacos are fairly priced ($2.50 each) and they allow you to select the salsa you want out of four. The tortillas.... beautiful. Warm. Slight crunch. Never dry. So so good. So many taco places in Birmingham fail at this. I got two asada and one al pastor taco. The food came out quickly and the man behind the window was so pleasant. The asada was juicy and the al pastor had a beautiful char on it. I'll definitely be stopping by here weekly.

    Not just another taco truck; even though the name say's otherwise! If you happen to catch them on Hwy 31 South in Vestavia you can't go wrong. They are not there every day but when they are the food is amazing and they are quick with their service as well. Their food is simple and exactly like what I got when I used to travel to Mexico City for work and we would grab street food down there as well. Having a real sugar; Mexican Coke; as I call it can't get any better on a awesome spring/summer day with a plate of steak tacos and their guacamole on the side.

    This stretch of Montgomery Hwy in Vestavia is getting popular for food trucks. Taqueria Juarez, another excellent Mexican food truck that moved in about 2 years ago, is actually located almost across the street. See their reviews on Yelp. While my family and I are regulars of Taqueria and enjoy their food, we have a new favorite. Enter stage right: Tacos Don Andy. I just happen to see their bright red tent decorated with Christmas lights next to their red food truck as I was driving on Montgomery Hwy last week. They have been at this location about a month. They are "parked" almost on the shoulder of Montgomery Hwy at the edge of the parking lot of a Pinestraw business (which used to be Hollywood Imports). They are next door to the Red Roof Inn motel which is next to the Verizon Store. Directly across Montgomery Hwy from Tacos Don Andy is Captain D's. The person I spoke with (I haven't had the chance to verify if he was Andy) informed me that they are there everyday 10 to 10 except Mondays and Fridays. On those days they are at their Pelham location which I believe is at 560 Cahaba Valley Rd. Tonight was our maiden meal. Their menu (see photo) is extensive for a simple food truck. They serve everything from tacos, fajitas, quesadillas to burritos with combinations of steak, pork, sausage, chicken and even lengua (tongue). In addition they also make the traditional tortas (sandwiches) and Andy's Specials which I am not sure exactly what it is, but the description sounds delicious. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a daily special that is not listed on the menu pasted to the side of their ordering window. Orders can be phoned in for pickup or taken at the window and enjoyed under their tent with a table and chairs. Tammy and Rachel wanted the steak burrito. Sarah a simple cheese quesadilla. Matthew the Corrizo con Huevo (sausage w egg) burrito and I tried their Pollo con Arroz y queso (Chicken with rice & cheese). I called in the order, picked it up in 15 min, chowing down in 10 and rubbing our fat bellies in 8! We all shared of course so let's start with the burritos. They were huge and portioned into two large halves. They were rolled and then pressed/flattened on the flat top grill with some butter which made a beautiful brown crust to the soft white tortilla. Inside were marinated stripes of beef, diced onions, bell pepper, shredded lettuce, cilantro and a delicious white sauce which I can't figure out what it's made of... but it tasted so good! Matthew's Corrizo con huevo was almost identical except with pieces of chorizo and fried egg. It did not have the same white sauce, but it was also delicious with the flavor of the chorizo throughout. Sarah's cheese quesadilla was pretty standard, well done and nothing was left of it after Sarah scarfed it down. After her first bite, she immediately said it was "really good"! Finally my Pollo con arroz y queso was top notch! It was fried rice in a flavorful light brown sauce tossed with marinated slices of chicken. Topped with cheese... it really hit the spot. Yom Yom Yom Yom. Oh I almost forgot the 4 different sauces they provide. The two green verde sauces were slightly different with one being thicker and spicier. The dark brown was the spiciest with a wonderful "smoky" aroma. Be warned, it is packs quite a kick! I don't know who Andy is, but he cooks some good food out of a moving vehicle on 4 wheels. I did not expect Michelin star food, but for food served on styrofoam, it's fast, reasonably priced and tasted delicious. Needless to say Andys will be a regular visit for us and I will find out who this Andy is! I have accepted that mission. So tune in next time...

    Campechana burrito, but where's the meat hiding!
    Dan S.

    Good fast customer service and amicable staff. Gave them 2 stars for effort. The food is meh! at best. I wasn't expecting amazing, but hoped for at least good (I'm from Los Angeles where tacos are life). Definitely not worth $3 for tacos and $9 for a burrito that's 80% rice and beans. I ordered a campechana burrito but, the meat seemed to be hiding somewhere in the rice. Salsa game was weak, watery, and flavorless. Step up your game and I'll give you another chance and another food review.

    Some sort of spicy pickled relish type topping.
    Azzy R.

    Stopped at Tacos Don Andy tonight for dinner. They were near the Publix plaza off of 31 and Helena Road. The steak tacos were really good and the steak was generous. The hot sauces were delicious. The relish type topping is INCREDIBLE. I like spicy food and eat it often, and even for me, it made my nose tingle. It had onions, carrots, diced habanero and what looks like whole jalapeños or maybe a chili of some sort. I added the onions and carrots to my tacos with the hot sauces and it was deeeeelicious! Prices were reasonable and service was excellent. Will be back.

    Tacos El Pastor!!! You want authentic, then this is the spot! They never fail on quality, customer service is great, they're quick, and you leave satisfied!

    Always one of my favorite places to stop to get lunch! They're so helpful and make the best food. The quesadilla with fajita style is the best. $10 massive quesadilla! Even hooks me up with the best hot sauce.

    I'm from Los Angeles, and it's good to find a proper taco truck in my new barrio. Proper al Pastor and suadero.

I jumped at the chance to try this place out because of the reviews of other Yelpers. The restaurant is sitting on the corner of Pelham Parkway and County Road 68 East, across from The Foundry Superthrift Outlet and Dollar General, and next door to TherapySouth. It is a nice sized place and the atmosphere is welcoming. I was helped by Dyron, who seemed like he never knew a stranger. He was so kind to everyone, including those on the phone. I even heard him say, "So we got your dad covered - what can I get started for YOU?" He was excited when he found out I was a "newbie". I love the menu. Each item has some form of "hit" in the name - slappin', crackin', slammin', and more. I ended up with the "Bussin' Burger" and a side of fries to go (since I was heading back to work). The food is cooked upon ordering, so my meal was nice and hot when I left. And I am here to tell you, the name of the burger was totally accurate! It was delicious - seasoned very well, and the perfect amount of toppings. The fries were good, but that burger - so good! No wonder Hit Different is a 2026 Shelby County Small Business of the Year Nominee! They deserve it and then some! Do yourself a favor, listen to the other Yelpers, and head down Highway 31 for an amazing meal at Hit Different! I am going back!

    Having opened in 2025, El Comal is one of the newest Tex Mex additions to the area. It delivers as…read moreintended, kind people, reasonable prices and large portions. To start, the salsa and chips. Fresh chips are solid, medium thickness. The salsa is extremely salty and does not taste as if it was made recently. Not a favorite. The steak fajitas is loaded with a substantial amount of beef, which is a wonderfully sized portion for the $14 that it costs in 2026, but the meat is not of good quality taste wise and very tough. The sides are all fairly good, except the guacamole, which is almost tasteless and of weird watered down pale green color, likely batch pre-made and preserved with an additive of lime juice. The ladies working here are wonderful, both attentive and kind. Interior is a nice conversion from the Italian restaurant Gino's which used to be in this space for close to a decade. As a whole, El Comal is probably not a place to run back to, but might be worth trying for some of the other dishes aside from steak fajitas.

This is one of your classic, casual, sit-down Mexican restaurants. They have everything you would expect to see on their menu. Classic refried beans and spanish rice to accompany everything. I applaud them for their extensive lunch menu. Oftentimes you cannot order a fajita off of the lunch menu. Service was quick. I think we were the only people in here. I imagine when kids hockey games get out at the rink across the street, this place fills up. I have the lunch steak fajitas and it hit the spot. No complaints, exactly what I expected. Chips and salsa were satisfactory, too. I enjoyed a nice, big diet coke and was offered a to-go cup as well. That might be my favorite phrase in Spanish: "diet coke, para llevar."
