This place hits the Mexican craving, it's like OMG after every bite. I had the Quesadilla and Gringa. The Gringa is similar to the quesadilla but it comes with avocado. I forgot the meats we had but I don't think you can go wrong with anything. Easy to order, the wait wasn't too bad. The food came with salsa, salsa Verde, and sour cream. It was so good. We couldn't finish our meal but reheating it didn't ruin the flavor. Still so delicious. The parking lot is small but there are many stores/parking lots nearby and the walk is easy. read more

Taqueria El Palomo - tacos with shrimp - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

Me and my friends were actually at Avant Garden for a poetry slam (Every Wednesday night) and we saw this taco truck posted right outside the venue and decided to give it a try! I got the ground beef tacos - although I definitely meant to get the asada - and they were delicious! My friends got chicken tacos and they said they were a little spicy, but they enjoyed them too. Each taco was about $3 (shrimp is $4) and they had an assortment of chips and drinks as well (chips were $1 and drinks were $3). I got the lime hot Cheetos with a mango drink, which went perfectly with my tacos! Great food for a great price, I definitely recommend b read more

Taqueria El Palomo - Ground beef tacos (1 flour, 1 corn) - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

Taqueria El Palomo makes the best tacos I ever have had! I've been to multiple states even different parts of Louisiana, Texas, and California. Of course my taco journey will forever continue but do not sleep on this taco truck! My family and I ordered carnitas, campechano, chicharron, and huitlacoche tacos. The tacos were so good, that I ended up ordering a delicious pastor quesadilla afterwards because we needed more! The tacos and quesadilla came out so hot, we all did the chewing motion where you let exhale fire out just to eat the food. It was so good I was willing to eat it at scorching temperatures! The chef keeps bottles of fresh salsas to add to your food and you can never go wrong with their salsa verde. Overall, I would definitely bring my entire family and close friends to grab tacos from here. I am already thinking about when I am coming back when I am in town. Need more convincing? Let's taco bout it! read more

CASH ONLY! In the Avant Garden parking lot, I think they have an ATM but not 100% sure. Was at Avant Garden on Wednesday for Poetry Open Mic/Slam. Shameless plug. Y'all should really check it out cause it's such a cool event. Convenient to grab a quick bite and bring inside to continue to enjoy the show. I got one PASTOR TACO and one CARNITAS TACO. They were $2 each but they were bigger than I expected! I used to paying like $1.50-$1.75 a taco at other stands but they're a little smaller. There was plenty of meat and the flavors were good. I was satifised with my two but I could have eaten more. The sauces weren't laid out so I had to ask for them. Neither of them was spicy in my opinion. I wish they had little containers you could put the sauce in. I see myself frequenting Avant Garden often so this is my new go-to place when I'm there. read more

BEST tacos in Houston!! --This coming from a legit Mexican. Seriously, Pablo (the cook) and his wife are amazing. They make the most delicious food ever for a super cheap price. It's like $2 a big taco! My boyfriend and I trust them so much that we just order 4 tacos of whatever they want and we're never disappointed. I must say their tacos de chicharron are from another world. He prepares them right when you order so they're not soggy. The GREEN salsa is the hottest, spiciest salsa ever! If you're like me and love a good kick, then you'll enjoy this. It has made me cry, jump, and laugh, so be careful. They have Jumex juices too! The mango flavor is my favorite. They also have the soda version of Sangria which is simply delicious. Also, this is the only place where I've found good huitlacoche, they put it in quesadillas and it is yummy. What is huitlacoche, you ask? And how to you pronounce it? It's corn fungus and it's pronounced weet-lah-KOH-chay, so if you're feeling adventurous, give it a try. Don't judge it's taste by how it looks... I'll keep recommending this place to all my friends, it truly is amazing. Plus, the location is perfect too. Avant Garden is one step away, so you can always enjoy your yummy tacos there as well as any show they might have going on. read more

So heads up! NOT CLOSED . Food truck outside Avant Garden. This food truck is open only when Avant Garden is open for the night. That's the 4 stars. But anyways, great tacos! Real Mexican tacos, idk if that sounds bad but you know what I mean, it's real lol. Authentic. Only $2 per taco so you can't beat that. Good food, good price. Period. read more

This taco truck has the BEST tacos that I've had from a food truck. I ordered a chicken taco, al pastor taco, and a chicken quesadilla. All of them were very tasty! The meat was hot and juicy and they don't skimp on the meat portions. I waited less than 10 min for my order which was no problem because of how good everything tasted. I will definitely be back for more! read more

I rented an Airbnb at a walking distance from this taco truck so I decided to give them a try DO NOT SKIP ON THIS TACO TRUCK! Best gorditas I've had in such a long time!!!! My husband and I where so satisfied with the flavor we ordered gorditas and tacos 10/10 I just wish I knew their hours cus I've tried going again but they have Been closed :( read more

Their quesadillas are the best in Houston, hands down. I usually go for tacos at Mexican food trucks but those quesadillas are the stuff dreams are made of. Their salsa could use a little something, but their food is so damn good it makes up for it. As a salsa fiend, that says a lot. Since tacos tierra caliente has gone downhill, this has now taken over as my favorite taco truck in Houston, and I'm honestly surprised at how few reviews this place has. read more

I happened on this place while waiting at the ridiculous line at Melange Creperie. It's literally right next door to Mango's in the parking lot at Sorrento's. This taco joint is great...especially if you like spicy. Get the Taco Carne Enchilada or Chicken Mole. And only $2 for a decent sized taco. Fresh salsa and cucumbers on the side. If anyone knows the owner, tell them to contact me so I can add them to houstonfoodtrucks[dot]com read more

Taqueria El Palomo - Food truck - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

Late night taco truck located inside the lot of AvantGarden. Cash Only and priced at $2.50/ taco, you are promised to be Tacoed Out with seriously 2 tacos. These bad boys were big and meaty, Al Pastor tacos came with a huge pineapple slice, the sweetness and juiciness paired so well with a charred pastor taco. The line can get hefty long, so before considering getting yourself a drink at the bar, do yourself a favor and get that taco when there isn't a line. read more

Such a good taco truck I love the food and the service is so good! It's also in a great area!

The best tacos I have had in my life. Very high quality and taste. Reasonably priced. El pastor, chorizo and beef were my fAvorite.

The best tacos de fajita or pollo and now you can pay with cash or card open Tuesday- Saturday

Great place to get tacos after stopping at the Avant Garden. Got chicken and beef tacos and the meat was well seasoned and very moist, added cheese and sour cream on for an additional $0.50 each. Overall good tacos but make sure you bring cash read more

Taqueria El Palomo - Chicken taco - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

If you're looking to get kicked in the face with flavor, this is the spot. Please do yourself a favor and don't hold back on the flour tortillas, they make a world of difference. I have tasted everything on the menu and there is nothing I wouldn't order again. This particular trip we ordered: -Chicharrón (pork skin cooked in green salsa) taco with cheese. They will warn you it's very spicy, but I didn't think it was. -Carnitas (not shown on the menu) taco with cheese. Again, delicious. -Lengua (cow tongue) quesadilla. DELICIOUS. read more

The best Mexican food truck place I have been to! Amazing food with succulent flavors and at amazingly low prices! Super cheap and super quick fresh filling food. The burrito is huge!!!!! And super filling! Right next to Avant Garden bar/lounge and is the best place to grab food to eat while out late drinking and partying on westheimer bars. Or even for a general food cart dinner night! Must try!! read more

My favorite taco truck in Houston, though the one outside of Alabama Ice House might have a sliiight edge. Regardless, I'm a huge fan. Get their Al Pastor tacos if you eat pork, they are fantastic. If you're really brave, try a Huitlacocha (corn fungus) quesadilla! read more

I too chanced upon this little food truck while waiting in line for a crepe. I got sooo thirsty! Sean. from Melange Creperie, actually recommended the watermelon agua from this place. Sean is no liar. It was fantastic! Or maybe after watching in line waiting for my crepe I salivated too much and anything tasted good? I doubt it. It was pretty delicious and at $2.00? FFL. Fan for life. read more

The best quesadillas in the city, hands down. Decent heat on the green sauce, great service, and authenticity.

Beef fajita, pollo and carnita tacos are mediocre at best. Tacos Tierra is much better in my opinion. Service was rude, would not give me extra salsa when I asked. If you're not in a taco-mergency, tacos Tierra caliente is worth the drive from here. read more

veggie burrito = thebomb.com LOVE this place, it's a man and his wife and together they support their son and their little family. Super authentic! We live in the neighborhood and come here often. read more

They should have a sign that says, " wait time is 10 minutes, but it's worth it". Everything is over level 9000. Fajita burrito and fajita torta. ++++ read more

Aaaaa-mazing! Seldom do I ever fawn over food trucks (save Moon Tower Inn & select others, of course) but this place was incredible! Cheap as can be, full of flavor, and freshly prepared when you order. Located in the parking lot of AvantGarden, and directly across from Sole Purpose, this taco truck is definitely worth dropping by. The Pastor Quesadillas have the most succulently marinated meat, & a hell of a kick to them. My face burned a good five minutes after eating them, granted I did slather green saucew all over them, but it hurt so good. So check out some new kicks at Sole Purpose, grab some awesome food from El Palomo, & catch a show at Avant Garden without having to travel more than crossing a street. read more

Best freaking tacos ever. These tacos were bigger than most tacos I've had elsewhere. And the people are friendly. Grab some tacos and a beer at Avant garden on their outdoor patio! read more

Great Tacos! Tacos Arabe is my favorite, which is a seasoned pork. Super cheap and really good. Orange and cucumber slices are a nice touch. One of my favorite tacos in town read more

Walked to this place today for lunch since I'm visiting a friend in town and it's definitely not at 408 Westheimer Road. I don't know if it closed or just moved location. I was looking forward to trying it after seeing the great reviews. read more

Delicious! Great prices, the owner and his wife work fast to get you your food asap. I love tortas so I try to order them whenever I see them on any menu. For $6 it's a large size torta. The meat always tastes so good, smothered with beans, lettuce, tomato, and everything else that comes with a torta. My bf always gets the beef quesadilla. Even thought it's dripping with grease, it's still very delicious. It's loaded with beef with lots of mozzarella cheese on a large tortilla. We love coming to Avant just to eat something from El Palomo. Wish they had a taco truck out in the cypress area. But the long drive is worth the trip. Forget the Tex Mex crap restaurants try to serve you! Nothing will ever be as good as this place! It's not tex mex! It's real delicious greasy but worth the calories mexican food! read more

Delicious surprise. Excellent burritos and quesadillas with fresh avocado. We ate a large meal for 20$ including tip. Must try if you're in Montrose and want a late night snack at AvantGarden! read more

One of the best places for tacos in Houston! Their salsa will burn your tongue to heaven! We always have the pastor tacos and the chicharron ones are yummy too. Top it all off with a cold Mexican coke. The location in the parking lot of Avant Garden may mean that you have to park on the street and walk over. read more
