Second time and it was still a hit! The tacos came out super quick and were sooo delicious. Including the green salsa. I love how clean and organized the taco truck area is as well. The people serving the food are kind and they're always playing good tunes. They also have two benches for people to sit in while eating. read more

Winner, winner, everything I tasted from here I'm giving five stars for dinner!!! I've heard about this food truck from my friends for a while now, but never have been. They decided to spoil me one night and came over to my house with two bags full of goodies!! Talk about speaking my LOVE language!! Lol Campechana quesadilla was so delicious!!! Prob my fav of what was in there. But the mini tacos al pastor were good and flavorful too!! The beans were bomb and I would never skip those!! Don't forget the red and green salsa to take everything up a notch! I tasted a couple other things and can't remember now because I want & can only think of eating some beans and Campechana right now. Lol All. The. Things. Hands down deliciousness!! I'll have to get out to the truck at some point, which apparently is set up for eating there too. Until then, I'll be craving this delicious Mexican food! read more

Always on point! I have been coming here for over 20 years. He has the best Al pastor hands down! The flavor cannot be matched anywhere in town. The asada too is really good. You cannot go wrong whatever you order. He is always consistent. I love that he always uses yellow regular size corn tortillas to me give a more corn flavor than white corn tortillas in my opinion. His tacos always come with cheese at no extra charge. He'll ask if you want them with everything; just say yes and get the true experience. Let's not forget about the beans, I'm refrolero (I love my beans)! Lol, they're always on point with weines and flavor. A must go to, if you've never been.

Chef lived in El Paso for a bit and came out here 2y ago. Carne asada is good. But al pastor is truly spectacular. Add the guacamole sauce. And cebollas y cilatro.

This is a diamond in the rough, kinda a blessing in disguised as I visited San Antonio and was looking for a taco truck for some late night eats and the one that normally parks beside our hotel apparently took a 2 week break so we had to venture out and it was perfect. The menu is simple but all we needed was the special 4 tacos, one set in Asada and the other Al Pastor and these were delish as we took it back to our hotel. I liked the sauces and the seasoning was just right. The only thing I can really say I didn't like was the parking situation but u gotta make the most out of it. They took our order over the phone and as soon as we got there it was just nearly ready. read more

We were craving tacos late at night and found Tacos El Guero. My husband and I ordered asada tacos and it was delicious. Perfectly seasoned, it had fresh cilantro, onions, and lime. The salsa was , spicy but good! The service was great, the food was freshly cooked, it was piping hot when we got it and I'm glad we ate it there instead of having it to go. The meat had just the right texture, not rubbery at all. They had a couple of benches we got to eat at and I can say I'm pretty satisfied with my meal.

Located on the gay strip of San Antonio, this taco truck by far is one of the best. I have been going here for more then 10 years and not once have I had a bad taco or bad service. These guys know what they are doing and do it very well. Guero is the friendliest sweetest down to earth man and always has a warm welcoming smile on his face that shines through with the food he serves. The charro beans are the best and the carne asada tacos never disappoint. Give them a try. The price is right and worth the drive. Service is fast even if there is a crowd when usually after midnight there will be a lot of people through 3am when they close. I believe there are open from 8:30PM-3:00AM Wednesday-Sunday read more

I heard this is the taco spot to go to at the end of your night of fun. We had the Asada and pastor tacos. They were really good and I especially liked that they come with beans which honestly was my favorite part. I have had better tacos back home in Arizona, and I was hoping this would be similar. Anyhow they are good, but not the best. The people working there were super friendly and super fast at getting us our food which is appreciated especially when you're ready to just eat and go to bed after a long night. read more

They run a special for $6 that includes four street tacos (chicken, al pastor )and borracho beans. Also comes with hot sauce, limes and onions. A great, tasty deal.

First timers might want to try "Tacitos Special" 4 with a cup of awesome Boracco beans. His hot sauce Verde is on point and fresh onions and cilantro to taste. Ask people when you get there for suggestions, he attracts a kind civil crowd. My fav is the Campechana, pretty tempting to head over there right now, just thinking about it.

Moved to Texas from California two years ago...Houston to be exact, and we have found it very difficult to find a real Mexican taco truck. On a weekend in San Antonio we randomly found this truck and to top it off there was no one in line because of quarantine. We were so happy to see the word "asada" on the menu! In Houston and other parts of Texas they call this "fajita" which makes no sense! The tacos were so good! And the lady and guy that work the truck are awesome!! read more

(It had Just Egg but I think other things added with it. It felt that it was softer and lighter than if it was only Just Egg) and pico de gallo on handmade flour tortilla. We were surprised by how much we enjoyed it. Their two self-serve complementary salsas were also fun and creamy. Concha- Delicious and we liked the top of it. Maybe one of our favorite conchas. Elote hot cake - Came out really hot and was delicious. These are only available on weekends. I was tempted to get more but we had lots more food targets on the schedule. Torta with Asada was pretty good too. But the other items excited me more I think. The person at the front also gave us some samples of other taco fillings to try: the fillings of the La Ranchera: Potatoes and pico de gallo in salsa ranchera and also grilled nopales. My husband who is usually not as crazy as me about nopales liked them here. They have mole on the weekends but it's not housemade from scratch. They use premade mole and add some more things to it so we skipped that one. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out!

GAME CHANGER! When…read moreI visit San Antonio Plantaqueria is an absolute must. I'm taken aback every time I walk into to this wonderfully positioned taqueria in downtown steps from the River Walk. The smells, the feels, the sounds- it'll set your senses on fire. It's ambience is nothing short of walking the streets of Mexico and stumbling across the best local food find there is- it's your lucky day. It doesn't end there, because I have yet to discuss the flavors that this place dishes out. If you can imagine that other taquerias in town as as good as mamma's cooking, Plantaqueria is grandma's cooking saying, " I taught them everything they know." The counter service, decor and neon lights transport you to a pueblo that you probably have no business being in but were fortunate enough to get lost in. I feel that the people working to advance this visionary concept are in love with what they do because you get that experience with every bite of fresh, homemade goodness, weather you dine in or take/order out. Dude, fresh corn and flour tortillas, C'mon, man!! And speaking of vision, the owner, Sofia, who looks like she would get IDd at a bar has created something truly unique and incredibly delicious. Plantaqueria has revolutionized modern, classical Mexican street cuisine. It's open 7am-7pm so you can literally have this all day and you might wish you did. Y'all need to get you some, and don't thank me, thank the purveyors of this Alamo City gem. P.s. I've brought my mom in to eat this stuff and she totally agrees!

As for the food, it was decent but nothing particularly memorable. I was especially looking forward to the paella, but unfortunately the rice tasted a bit sour, which was disappointing. Overall, the service and atmosphere were the highlights of the experience, while the food left some room for improvement.

My wife and I use to frequent this place YEARS ago, the service was good and the food was good,…read moreyears later we decided to go back & mannn the food quality & service has went down terribly! Pulled up on a Friday late night with my family ordered the standard 5 tacos. They are a bit pricey as well. I ordered the carne Asada and my mother in law ordered the chicken. While it did seem like it tasted good it was super greasy. (TMI coming up) When I woke up the next morning my I noticed my bowels were literally moving the next day, (I counted about 9 times). I felt bloated and everything. My wife even told me that as we were pulling off she witnessed the cook I believe his name is Julio eating some of the product while he was preparing peoples food (the side door of the food truck was open so you could see right in). Funny enough we decided to go back Saturday evening to give them another try, thinking it would be better, BOY was we wrong. I ordered the same order plus charro Beans, elote (corn in a cup) and 3 cans of sprite. This time we took literally one bite and the meat was DRYER than the Saharan desert both the carne asada and the chicken. (Tasted like some reheated old meat or meat that had been made days prior). We were already at the hotel at this point and was infuriated!!! We ended up calling and I believe I spoke to Julio (or whoever the cook is) over the phone. After lying saying that he cooked the meat fresh that day he stuttered I told him aint no way the meat was fresh. He then said and I quote " I cooked the meat "a couple days ago" then said "sorry I burnt it or overcooked it". (Knowing that why would you serve that to me?) I then stated "yes it tasted old period". I requested a refund in which he agreed to. Driving all the way back I brought the food back as well. Julio (or whoever the cooks name is) tried to plead his case to me saying that the meat is fresh and took a fork and tasted the food himself and then tried to offer me the food. I told him "no I don't want to taste it, just refund me please" in which he did. Dishonesty, Not handling food with care, lying. Is something that crosses the line and I won't be back. *Also if the owner is reading this I have the phone conversation recorded and the video evidence to show proof this whole interaction, so do not just glaze over this review* I don't like writing bad reviews, but this one is for sure warranted. Seems like they will dress up the taco and selling you some "old meat" people just be careful and mindful when coming to this taco truck. "The Earths Best Taco" they say... that's a stretch!

Pickled red onions, green salsa and habanero salsa.

They only sell Al Pastor, but they have beer, sodas, and water too. They also have a nice assortment of 4 sauces they make, which were all amazing too! The tortillas were great! Perfect size for the taco and the meat on the taco was spot on for Al Pastor! Flavor was great, meat was fresh and moist, and the amount they put on each taco was huge! Highly recommend stopping in!

The pics look good and I decided to call in and order some asada tacos and a papa con todo. The person who picked up the phone was friendly and said the order would be ready in about 10 minutes, which was perfect for me. The food truck is red, well lit, and located in a parking lot by a Circle K and a tire shop. They have several chairs set up in front of the food truck for those who want to dine in. It's cash only but they also accept Zelle, which I used to pay for my order ($19 - which is a good deal for 5 tacos and a potato with carne asada). The order came nicely packed with three different salsas (red, green, and avocado) and some limes. Both the tacos and the potato were delicious! Everything was very warm and the meat was soft and savory. I'll definitely make it a point to recommend it to friends and family in the area and will stop by myself again when I'm in San Antonio.

I honestly didn't even realize it until I received my burrito, and I hate burritos with just meat in it. However, this burrito had me freaking drooling. I had avocados, onion, cilantro, tomato, and cheese in it, and it was just absolutely amazing. It had so much flavor, and was so filling! I would definitely recommend this place! The only reason I didn't get five stars was because of the price. I got two burritos and two drinks because I went with my husband, and the bill came out to ~$33 which is kind of high & typically a dealbreaker for people, but honestly, they were so worth it and I plan to keep going back! The burritos are also kind of small, but like I said... they fill you UP! I was down to my last four bites and I had a hard time finishing it bc I was already full. But I also wasn't going to waste such a great burrito! So if you don't mind spending the money for a GREAT time, I highly recommend this spot!

Recommend: Maybe…read more Food: Ordered the Taco Plate which is 3 Al Pastor taco as and 3 Sirloin. The taco came with cilantro, onions, lemon, and asked for a side of salsa (Serrano). The tacos come with enough meat to fill you. The meat was tender and not much fat on the cuts, which I appreciate. The meat is being cooked on a trompo right in front of you, so everything seems fresh. The Al Pastor taco comes with a slice of pineapple that, I think, gives it a good contrast to the spiciness of the Serrano sauce. The meat could use a little bit more seasoning but overall, it was a good taco. Service: Service was fast. You order at the counter and pick it up at the end of the counter once your pager buzzes. Everyone is friendly. Ambiance: the restaurant is very clean on the inside, it has a very upbeat vibe.
