The absolutely best taco I have ever had. Halibut, a bit pricey, but worth every $ (see picture). Hubby got the beef taco. They also had donuts and turnovers. Highly recommended to us and we highly recommend. Located across from train station in Talkeetna. read more

Talkeetna Tako - Halibut taco - Food Trucks Near Me

Eat there regularly. Delicious beef, chicken, salmon, and shrimp tacos! Wonderful ice cream and cookies! Shirley and her staff are fantastic people! read more

We stopped at this taco stand across from the train station. We had the beef taco. It was huge and full to the brim. Totally recommend.

Rude rude staff. The lady at the counter really needs to work on her customer service skills. We were curious about the salmon crunch thing and wanted to try Salmon while in Alaska and had a question about it while putting in the order and to our surprise, the lady yelled with an uncalled for rude response which didn't help answer our question. Food arrived fast but the portion was small for the price. There are plenty of other food trucks in Talkeetna that will make you feel welcome, stay away from this one. read more

So good we came back for more in the same meal! That Smoked Salmon Cheese Crunch is brilliant. A melted/fried cheese skirt instead of a tortilla, topped with smokey salmon, green onions, cilantro, and a jalapeno sweet cream sauce. WE GOT TWO. We also raved about the light and crispy Halibut tacos and the smoked salmon quesadilla. I might go back to Talkeetna some day just to eat here. You must go! read more

These were great tacos. Take your pocketbook with cash in it, which is pretty much the norm for everything in Talkeetna. Cash is king here. We had the halibut taco and a salmon one as well. Both were great. They were not cheap, but nothing is in Alaska. This place is outside with some picnic tables. It is a food trailer. Don't let that stop you, however. The food is great!! read more

Cash Only Food is very delicious, made fresh for the order. The waiting time is reasonable - about 5 minutes for us. Taste wise it is on the sweet side with a hint of spicy. Love this little food truck. I took a star off because of the portion, which some other reviews also mentioned. read more

Got the Halibut tacos. Two Street size for $18. Pricey I think, but freshly prepared and cooked well. They were actually cutting the halibut as we placed our order. It was lightly breaded and pan fried. Served nice and warm, with toppings. Had a little kick to it! read more

This is the best food I've had in Alaska! We've visited Anchorage and Denali, and nothing beats these tacos and quesadillas. The smoked salmon cheese crunch is really unique and delicious. The halibut quesadilla was packed with fish, and it definitely wasn't cheap tilapia. It was great to finally taste some good fish up here. I also recommend the asada taco, but I bet any type would be great. There was a man playing ukulele, and he was very talented and also cracked jokes with the people cooking the food. It was like lunch with a show! So happy I have pictures to remember this good meal! read more

Got the salmon quesadilla and it blew me away. About 12 bucks and probably the best deal (tacos were pretty small for the price). Highly recommend. Actually, so good I forgot to take a picture until after I ate it. read more

We rolled into town and we're starving and all restaurants were finished serving. To our surprise and great fortune, Talkeetna Tako was still open. We had the pork tacos and salmon quesadilla. Both were exceptionally tasty and a lot of food. If you're hungry- the quesadilla is the way to go. Very filling and a generous portion and delicious! The woman that took our order made our food and delivered it to our table which is unusual for a food "truck". She's great and if this is her place, we wish her all the best!! Thank you for being open so late and service with a smile read more

This is a really nice place for taco. We had fish tacos and their special cheese pizza. The place is a little pricey but it's a touristy destination and most of the food joints around here were pricey. Nice friendly people. Quick service. Tasty food. read more

Fast, tasty, Alaskan tacos with an extra dash of spice. Owner John sat down with us and chatted for a while about how he ended up in Talkeetna. We enjoyed his story, while wolfing down the meal. Yes, it will seem expensive if you don't live in Alaska ---things cost more here--but how nice to get high-quality food that comes out quickly when you're hungry. read more

Get the fish tacos!! Amazing snack to fuel up for a stroll around Talkeetna. Tons of flavor and service was !

The halibut was good. The special sauce had great flavor a little on the spicy side. The beef quesadilla was plentiful and seemed like eating a cheeseburger. The meat was pretty salty tasting. They have no take out boxes. read more

Halibut taco was ok, very small amount of fish and they added sugar to the salsa(?). Not worth 2 for $18.

A must try taco, halibut taco is soooooo good, has a little sweet taste but amazingly match so well with the halibut, a little bit pricey, 2 for $16, but worth of trying, plus it is not battered and fried. The smoke salmon quesadillas is great too, specially with the sauce, yummy read more

Rude staff. Girl at the counter gave me attitude, I guess she doesn't need my business.

Loved your burgers! I haven't eaten the other ones, but I will be getting some more on the way back to Anchorage!

Got the halibut tacos. Was surprised when the cost was $16 for two measly tacos. The tacos tasted great, with quality ingredients. But 2 stars for taste vs. quantity. read more

This food was amazing! No fish is cheap and AK prices are not cheap either. But these were the best fish tacos our family has ever had! We had halibut tacos (2for $16) halibut quesadilla and salmon quesadilla (each $18). There are two picnic benches outside this food truck. read more

I had the halibut tacos. They were perfection. The sauce was subtle but perfect for bringing out the halibut flavors. If you like halibut, this was a great way to eat it. Will definitely be going back here. read more

This quirky little town and this amazing food truck has the best tacos Al Pastor I have ever experienced! Would highly recommend if you are in the area! read more

The halibut tacos are sooooooooo good!!!!! It's 90% the reason to return to Talkeetna on a weekly basis if I could. The other 10% is the funky fun talkeetna atmosphere. Definitely go here and pay up for this taco experience. You won't regret one bite! read more

Absolutely amazing! Having lived in Mexico I know what a taco taste like & holy WOW! The tacos Al Pastor were so flavorful. We actually started w/ a smoked salmon cheese crunch, 2 out of 3 people in our group don't like salmon, but they loved this divine delight!! Every dish we ordered was a party of flavor in our mouths. We ordered the halibut quesadilla, cheese burger, al pastor tacos and the smoked salmon cheese crunch. Hands down a delightful hidden gem!!! Great job to the cooks, creators and everyone involved in Talkeetna Tako! read more

Had to try a salmon quesadilla since we're in Alaska and I was sure glad that I did. It was fantastic!!
