    Beef street tacos on flour
    Amanda D.

    The Food was delicious we will be back! service was great, quick as well Seating available.

    Torta de Reyes y Elote
    B S.

    Service friendly & orders can be made in Spanish or English. Today credit card payment method was available. The ambiance is what you would expect for a food truck located in a gas station parking lot, next to a relatively busy intersection. Sitting is limited to three small round tables with metal seats. Not ideal during the summer heat but ok for evening sitting, if available. No privacy, unless you eat, or wait, in your vehicle. Torta de Reyes (2/5): unmemorable beef flavor, beans ok, medium~thick soft breading, single small slice of avocado. Solid meal portion but missed that authentic torta flavor. Elote (2/5): original, basic flavors of corn & a bit of queso fresco. Not soupy. Small cup. No exciting flavors. Pricing in my opinion for these two items are a bit high for flat taste; but to be expected in this economy.

    Quesitacos with consommé

    Birria tacos! Located in a gas station parking lot in Katy, this little truck has some good birria tacos! Everything is CASH ONLY so I'm letting y'all know right now. Only tried the birria quesitacos with consommé and it was $12 for 4 tacos. Not bad for trying this for the first time! Tacos were lined with cheese and crispy on the outside. Flavorful and I liked all the included condiments. Can only recommend the quesitacos because that's all I got lol.

    Drove 30 mins to get here, when I was 5 minutes away I called in to order ahead of time. The wait time for the food was 20 minutes which is odd for a food truck, but maybe the process for a birria is a lot more. CASH ONLY! -- Quesitacos w/ Consome (3/5) - The meat was pretty juicy, meaty flavor, but not really seasoned. The Consome has also a very meaty flavor, would be a great soup. I had really high expectations considering the reviews and the wait. 12 -- Beef Tacos (2/5) - The meat was very dry, flavorless, and the meat smelled old. Nothing special to me.

    Birria with consome
    Nora C.

    I was pretty excited to try Tacos El Grande because I love tacos! I also love giving new places a try :) CASH ONLY! I got their #1 on the menu which is $12 for 4 tacos and consome. The birria tacos were oh so delicious, especially when dipped in the consome! The meat was tender, cheese was soft, the crunch of radish, and flavorful onion and cilantro AND their green salsa! You just have to eat it fast or else the shells get soggy and breaks apart lol. I have braces so it took me a good 45 minute to finish my meal which was too long!

    food truck

    #1st time here 1. The entrance - Food truck on the side of a Chevron off Franz Rd in Katy, TX. 2 wooden picnic tables if you want to eat there. 2. The First Vibe - Great! Clean! Backs up to a neighborhood. We did notice upon arrival that it is ONLY CASH. Luckily, there was a gas station with an atm - $2 service fee. 3. Time 2 table - we got this to go - so roughly 10 mins. 4. Menu - simple and small. What to get? Quesatacos with the consome. OMG. The consome is a game changer. 5. Server - no server but the man at the window took our oder. 6. Drinks - they have topo and glass bottled sodas 7. Food - see photos! Larger portions than I thought. I definitely had leftover tacos the next day 8. No dessert 9. Management - Management takes all the credit for the process - service was great and quick. No issues. 10. Cleanliness - Clean. I think some food trucks can get a bad rap for not being clean. But the area surrounding the truck and the quality of our food can attribute to the cleanliness. Def coming back. New go-to food truck spot for birria tacos and consome. Check out our IG reel on this food truck at craveonomics on Instagram! #craveonomics

    SECOND VISIT W NO CONSOME :(
    Mi T.

    REALLY FREAKING GOOD YALL. Today was the second time I've eaten dinner here & literally no regrets. Ordered over the phone so it'll be ready by the time you get there so you're not waiting in the sun BUT REMEMBER IF YOU ORDER W CONSOME, ask for it when you pick it up because they forgot to give me some when my boyfriend picked it up & he didn't bother to check the bag :( so we're currently enjoying the quesitacos without the consome. I would really recommend if you're following the hype & trying to find yummy birria tacos !! I'm actually really sad because the consome was so good last time that I DRANK IT & I'm not even ashamed to tell y'all. TRY IT !!

    This was our first time tonight and all we can say is..... OH HELL YES!!!!! They got the food out quick and it traveled well. When we got home everything was hot and tasty. They only let you pay with cash as of now. Great size truck with tables on the outside to sit at. It seems a bit hidden but this place is a must visit!

    Candace G.

    I met my friend here to grab birria tacos to go. I thought they'd be soggy by the time I got them home but I was wrong. They were still crispy and delicious. The consome was flavorful and the salsas were too!

    I was craving for some birria tacos and I saw this place nearby and gave it a try! They open starting at 5pm! You can preorder through the phone before coming. The birria tacos with the soup is very tasteful! The regular tacos are a little dry in my opinion. The birria tacos plate, it comes with four tacos and the soup. If you're really hungry then 1 plate can fill you up, but if you're not I would suggest sharing it with someone. Very well seasoned and tasty!

    Best birria tacos
    Bert A.

    My sister came from chicago and wanted some tacos. We came late before they close but the owner was very nice and even cleaned an area for us to eat. Best tacos in katy and probably the best birria in houston. We'll try the ramen next time

    I've been hearing about the Birria Taco craze for some time, and have just been waiting for an opportunity to try it. I Yelp'd this location and decided to give it a try. The reviews were wonderful and the pictures really helped me to decide what I wanted to order. I ended up getting the #1 Birria Quesitaco with Consume. It came with 4 delicious tacos with all the fixin's. It smelled so good I barely made it home without taking a bite. It was fresh and delicious. The consume was so flavorful, I could have had it alone like soup. The only reason for the 4 stars is because they accept cash only. I had to leave and come back with cash.

    See all
