Bad experience at this taco stand. From the moment we arrived, the greeting was rude and unwelcoming. The employee handing us our food even admitted they were in a bad mood, and unfortunately it showed in the way we were treated. The whole interaction felt unprofessional, especially for first time customers. Definitely not a good first impression. read more

Food was extremely cold and the meat was dry. This was my third time here, the first 2 times was descent but this last one was horrible.

Ordered 14 tacos, 2 drinks and a Gordita with the price at 60. After adding up everything I was overcharged by 4.50 which I saw get put in the tip jar. read more

This place is located in an old garage type building (perhaps an auto shop?) but has a large sign out front! I got the horchata, limon drink, lengua taco, and al pastor taco. The horchata was good but definitely not as creamy as I would like it, but also was not overly sweet which is a major plus in my opinion. The limon drink though... wow! It must be a staple for taco places, but this is the first time I've gotten it and I literally took one to go because it was so good. Perfect sweetness, so refreshing, and overall 100/100!! The coolest part of these tacos were the added cheese and avocados! I can't get this treatment in MN, so it definitely was a shock to me! I would say al pastor was standard, BUT the lengua ones were phenomenal. So so tender and so flavorful. I felt like it was stewed for days in their magnificent marinade and served to me on a beautifully warm tortilla. I should have gotten 5 more!! read more

service is great , always freindly , they have a tv and tables as well as restrooms and the food is good

Food is very good, but beware of the prices of drinks as they don't post any signs of cost of any food or beverage items I was charged $8.00 for 2 small cokes, and when I brought It to their attention they said the owner does not want to put prices up which explains everything . At that point I asked for his/her phone number to express my concern and they would not give it out they said he doesn't like to be called . I just don't like to be taken advantage of and this is an example of going with the "well everything has gotten more expensive so let me raise the prices too" This is very sad because this has been one of my go to spots for many years. If you the Owner is reading this post, please don't take advantage of your customers your food is very good don't loose customers overcharging for cokes. read more

The lady at the register was SO Atrociously RUDE. She didn't even greet me and just looked at me like "WTF do you want and hurry up I have better things to do." She even started a whole phone conversation and ignored most of the time. I didn't see them have horchata on their menu but asked if she did and she just poured some stuff in a cup and said I needed to give her money. Okay so I see the drinks cost $1.50 each and I ordered 4 so I gave her $6 cash and she took the money, counted it, and rolled her eyes and said "$12. $12!" I gave her two drinks back because she didn't tell me they magically doubled the price when I ordered them and she rolled her eyes so hard. So she didn't say anything else to me after that and just kept rolling her eyes and giving me major attitude and told me to go away AND I'M STILL LIVID at how I was treated. I really used to think this was one of the best places to get horchata and tacos but obviously that's no longer the case. This was the first time I went to this location and I will never come back. When I walked away with the drinks after paying she cussed me out for everyone sitting and waiting for their food to hear. I didn't do anything wrong but okay sure whatever back at ya. Absolutely horrible. read more

I always get a elote, and fajita tacos. SO GOOD. SO AFFORDABLE. Cash only. The wait isn't bad at all. They also have tables for you to eat there too if you want. Minus 1 star because last time I came here, the flour tortillas were a bit stiff, not soft. Food instagram: @adventureswithsoso read more

I used to LOVE coming to this place when I was in high school. Especially during game days this is where I would come to eat every Tuesday and Friday. But recently the value of the food and the price has change. The prices have gone up and the quality of the food has gone down. Today my bf and I came and he ordered 4 tacos but they charged us for 6 (we didn't say anything bc they don't give receipts & didn't find out until the food was ready) we thought our ticket came out as high bc he got tacos with tortilla de harina, which is more. I ordered 3 gorditas de fajita. As soon as I got home, I threw up all my food. It didn't sit well and my mom told me it looked as if the carne was not good at all or just not cooked well. No longer coming to gemelos again. It's such a disappointment bc I used to love this taco truck. Good thing there's plenty more around Houston. read more

I used to come here a lot with my parents but this place has gone to sh*t. I ordered a fajita torta and 4 tacos de fajita and 2 lemonades. The assh*les charged me $8 for sugar water. SMDH! The fajita was over cooked and dry. Don't waste your money here. You've been warned! read more

Tacos Los Gemelos is a great place to eat, even late at night. Only late as 12-1am. I remember when they started out as just a taco truck. They evolved into a garage over some number of years. I come here for the tacos. They're cheap and it goes well with a melon (cantaloupe) drink. I had the time to try their fajita, barbacoa, chicken, and pork. The quesadillas on chicken are good as well. The meats are a bit greasy here, but it will do for the price I pay. $1.50 tacos. One thing that stands out here are their spicy sauces they offer. I'm not sure what they're made out of, but they light your mouth and tongue on fire! The red sauce seems the most spiciest to me, but some of my friends say the green sauce is more spicy. You try it out and tell me which sauce tastes like lava to you. If you want to skip the line, you can order ahead by calling in. They also have a second location on 1960 near 249. They also sell bootlegged dvds so you can catch one of the latest movies or a classic for the night haha. Bring cash! They don't accept credit cards. read more

Taco truck with really good, homemade, fresh tacos / burritos, etc. There's a couple different taco stands and trucks along Veterans Mem. in this area but this is the one in the parking lot by Family Dollar. There's a spacious covered area with bench tables, fans, and a TV, so it feels like an outdoor patio... one step up from just a food truck in an empty parking lot. They've like actually established this area as their own outdoor restaurant. And the tacos are so good! My favorite part about it is their tortilla that they use... tastes so FRESH and homemade handmade! Not like store-bought, 3 days old tortillas. I hate the taste of preservatives in breads and pastries. They must always be fresh!!! lol Oh yeah, I think they only speak spanish. Good chance to make use of the 4 years of high school Espanol that you made an A in but never used. Gracias, de nada! read more

Do not come here unless you want to get charged a dollar for ICE and an extra fee for limes because they "Don't have anymore". The lady at the front has no manners and is not welcoming at all. She gave my wife attitude as soon as she started ordering. Definitely not coming back to an establishment that doesn't value their customers. read more

Ohhhh ohhhh! Located about 17 minutes away IAH airport is this little taco gem. Had my bestie in town for a couple days and the last thing she wanted to get were some tacos before she got the plane. They had a variety of tacos from bistek, lengua, barbacoa and chicken! My friend and I enjoyed the tacos immensely! All of them were bomb. Tacos are about two bucks and you get some avocado and lots of meat. Which I think is a pretty decent deal! I think the Horchata was okay since I prefer it super milky vs with more watery with lots of cinnamon. The Elote was also delicious, if you like lots of corn, cream, cheese and spice.. this is def for you. I like the space a lot. The taco stand, tables and seats are located in a garage. Which makes a fun eating experience with friends. Will def return again read more

I use to come here all the time for their crunchy tripas, greasy quesadillas and aguas frescas. But lately I feel like their tacos de tripas have been lacking. So this last time I went I bought un taco de chicharon; which was pretty good. I love their salsa verda. Aguas frescas- Watermelon & Cantaloupe water are my two favorite ( Sandia & Melon) They have a variety of other items on their menu such as Mexican burgers, elote and tortas. There is usually about a 15 minute wait to get food because they are always so busy. I like that they have bathrooms which is uncommon for a food truck. There is a t.v. which is usually playing a telenovela. read more

Pongo una estrella no por la calidad o sabor de la comida, la pongo por la atención al cliente y variedad de comida. Yo no como carne y pedí lo que serían unas baleadas (tortilla de harina con frijoles crema y queso fresco) pero me dijeron que no me las podían hacer. Yo he venido en años anteriores y me las han hecho, muy amables, pero ahora ya no se puede? Yo se que no están en el menú, pero me los han hecho antes en este local y en el otro. Pensé que no tenían los ingredientes pero pregunté y me dijeron que lo que pasaba es que no me las pueden hacer en general no por falta de ingredientes. Termine manejando al otro local. No se porque se me ocurrió ir a este, perdida total de tiempo y gasolina. read more

haven't had authentic tacos in a while since I live in northern Virginia now. SO coming here took me back to my days of living in the southwest. I wont eat tacos anywhere else since I know they will just ruin it for me. They mainly speak Spanish here so to get things going faster I let my friend order for me. I'd definitely come back here again as long as I am in town. read more

I don't even know where to start. I ordered everything from elote to burritos to tacos to Tortas to gorditas and we all agreed that - it sucked! Not only was it hot, not seasoned and just plain nasty! If they weren't in the mood to work today - they clearly showed it in there food. First time ever in trying it. Sorry but there's others down the street that I would give five stars to. read more

Best street tacos ever! I sometimes go out of my way to get lunch here, don't judge a book by its cover, just eat the school bus tacos and thank me later! read more

I've been coming here for the past 7 years. Before they even had the little shed. Now that those tacos are 2$ they've become greedy and their customer service has gotten more awful than before. It was a great taco stand once but not it's become mainstream with terrible service, terrible food, and even worse management. Please treat the customers with enough respect to give them a taco that's actually worth 2$ and not a bland taco with black avocado. It is disgusting and when I called to tell them, the cashier got an attitude with me and hung up the phone. What a shame. The only reason I still give this place 2 stars and not 1 is because of how happy it once made me. Now i need to move on the better things. read more

This place is my ALL TIME FAVORITE taco stand, ever! The food is consistently amazing and I have yet to find a place that serves better limonada! I always get the barbacoa tacos on corn tortillas. The flavor is so good! Just a little bit of lime and I'm good to go! Sucks that this place is soo far from me, but anytime I'm in the area, I always always go! read more

Food is good. Cashier lady is rude.

Quesadilla de fajita is the way to go.. with a agua de melon... sheeesh.

Best tacos I've ever tried. Such an inexpensive place where you can enjoy a simple meal. The customer service is nice. I prefer fajita tacos and the chicken quesadillas and definitely try their elote. A definite must try in Houston. Better than the taco truck everybody raves about in 1960. read more

The only place in houston that I visit for street tacos. Tacos here are cheap, filling and tasty. I like the green sauce more so than the red. I get the watermelon or cantaloupe juice on occasion, and while it is very sweet, it is the ideal beverage to go along with these tacos and is very refreshing after my mouth is set on fire by the green sauce. read more

This place is affordable and good. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for some good tacos with avocado; that's right, I said avocado. The sauces that come with it compliments it so well. My favorite is the green one. I usually get the fajita tacos, elotes, watermelon juice and I'm good to go! Must try if you want some cheap Mexican food! read more

Been going to this place for a while and I loved it every time. The tacos are not over 2 dollars! And they add cilantro, onions, and Avocados. I generally don't like chicken tacos bc it usually taste very strange but this place has really good chicken tacos. Ofc the fajita and barbacoa is good too. Workers are friendly and they tend to have it out quick. read more

Good lunch spot and dinner too. Never a bad time for tacos! They are nice people too. One day the credit machine was down and they gave my food to me for free. When I was in the area again I stopped by and paid them and the lady at the counter smiled and remembered. That's a solid spot read more

This use to be the taco spot to go to. I don't know what happen because it went down hill. The fajita meat is either dry or burnt I went back a few more times hoping it was just a bad experience after going for years but nope disappointed every time it's just not the same and prices have hiked up and food quality has went down. read more

Wow! Never had "street tacos" that had no flavor. I got two bisteak and two of fajitas and the taste was not great at all. My wife got pastor tacos and she was not happy. Taco meat was cold and the tortilla was not even cooked like they took it straight out of the bag. I guess next time we will make the trip to South Houston for authentic street tacos. Man was I disappointed. Just wasted 25$ on 8 tacos of corn and two drinks. read more

Everything here is good. The meat is great and they don't skimp on it. The elote is amazing also.

I DO NOT recommend this place at all. Spent about 20 minutes for my order, my order was wrong and the lady that takes the orders tried to get mad when I told her it was wrong and to top it off the shit they did give me is fucking nasty. Don't waste your time here, first and last time I'll be coming to this location or any of their locations. read more
