They are a small family owned food business that puts a lot of work and hours to the food they provide. It may not be a first date kind of deal but it's a great quick foodie stop! We've been there multiple times for their tacos. I wasn't able to get a picture as quick before the husband started eating. Lol the tacos come out piping hot with nice soft corn tortillas the meat is never greasy! Even with crispy tripas it's still never crispy or gamey! The meat is always tender and spiced with authentic aromatic seasonings. It's salted just right with savory grilled notes. The tacos can come with all the fixings: onions, radish, cilantro, and grilled onions and jalapeño, with side of green and red homemade salsa. They even have menudo if you call in advance. But the pozole is always there on the weekends. But let me tell you! Go there early because their pozole runs out before 1pm! Overall will keep going there if I'm in the area of their permanent Food truck location. And highly recommend to try them out!

I appreciate authentic. They even offered the watered down version of hot sauce since I probably look like I can't handle their real stuff. Love the real stuff and would totally ask them to make me some so I can take it home. Stop here if you love authentic food truck experiences. You will like it. Will definitely return. Prices super reasonable. How do they make tacos this good? I can't come close at home. Another reason to eat out at night. Perfection! Gracias.

We ordered two pastor tacos. The meat was tender and flavorful. Although the pork was covered in red sauce, it was not very spicy at all (and I usually am sensitive to spicy food). The workers here were friendly and the food was prepared quickly. Their menu is quite extensive and prices seemed reasonable. The place loses a star because they did not have any salsas already prepackaged for carry out orders. Their salsa selection was in front of the counter where you order, in an open dish, which I thought was quite unsanitary since anyone could sneeze into it or bugs could crawl into it.

First food truck adventure! Walking distance for us is a…read moreplus. Not that a drive is a problem in any way but there is more sense of adventure when you walk somewhere. Well I drove by the truck on the way home. We have talked about going for a long time. I walk in the door and whispered the magic word, "tacos?" The next thing I know we are walking right down the block. I love a home cooked meal and this is exactly what you're getting. I have recently come to enjoy Chimichanga. I ordered mine -without beans- and a coke. My partner in adventures ordered a burrito. His burrito was huge. ;) We ate like kings for $14.00. My Chimichanga came out piping hot. Everything was rolled together and was with delicious tasting meat. It was not smothered in cheese, it was more like a garnish which was great cause then i don't only taste cheese. His burrito was stuffed full of all its glory and came with a couple chips. We sat in the setting sun under the tent and gorged ourselves on what we feel was as authentic homemade Mexican meal. We thanked the cook and praised him on the food and tipped him generously. He was out there in the heat of a food truck and sun and making delicious food for who knows how many or how little of a crowd each time. We are going back,

Everything on the menu is tempting, but the one thing on their Facebook page that screamed out to me... " You have to try this!" Was their quesa taco... I couldn't exactly see in the truck, but how I imagine these are prepared is... A tortilla is placed down on the grill... Piled with cheese until it melts and overflows and the edges of the cheese start to crisp up on the cooking surface. Or maybe it starts cheese down, the tortilla is placed on top, and then it's turned? Then the meat, onion, and cilantro are piled on it. It's scooped up and placed in a serving container... I ordered one al pastor (marinated pork) quesa taco, two birria (slow cooked tender beef in a adobo style marinate) quesa tacos, a cup of consume, and a bottle of Coke. $13 before tip. Service at the truck was very good at ordering, during payment, and pick up. I've often wondered why I didn't see any videos, or pictures, of someone eating their item after dipping it into the consume. Well... The area of my goatee between my lower lip and chin now has the same color tint as a certain prominent leader... While the taste was phenomenal it's not a good look on me. The truck has an area with tables and chairs under a canopy off to the side. To properly enjoy the consume you don't want to be in your car. Forego the AC and sweat it out if you have a long commute. Anyone know a good detailer? Just kidding. All possible major catastrophes were avoided today. Aside from being a messy endeavor everything was cooked perfect. I can find no fault with my quesa tacos or visit in general. I'd definitely order these again. The one thing I might change... On the menu board I'd erase "(birria broth)" beside consume and replace it with "(nectar of the gods)". It's that good. As the quesa tacos appeared to already have enough consume from the meat, and I was making a mess, I used it sparingly from the cup with my meal. To get a good feel for it I grabbed a piece of white sandwich bread when I got home and ate it while dipping into the consume. Concentrated beef flavor, an enjoyable seasoning, a little grease/fat added to the richness, cilantro floated on the surface. I don't know what goodness lies beneath, but what I have left sure won't go to waste...and I'll find out. Might be dipping some grilled cheese sandwiches into it later tonight... I didn't try the hot sauces. With the consume there was no need. Theyre in the refrigerator. I'll use it for something in the next day or so. Good stuff.

Good stuff! This…read moretruck has been parked at the Glacier Properties office in Clive for the past few days. I live right down the street...two blocks or so. I wasn't sure if they took cards or not...and I haven't made it to an ATM lately so I've hesitated to stop by. But tonight was the night...! It was a brisk night, it had been windy, and was spitting snow earlier. After a quick trip (Kwik Star actually) to an ATM I whipped into the parking lot and headed to the window. I was greeted right away as I walked up. They do take cards. There was a payanywhere station on the counter. The menu is posted on the truck along with their prices. I ordered three quesa birria tacos and a barbacoa torta. Paid and tipped. They handed me a pager so I could wait for the food where it was a little warmer. That was much appreciated. It was a really short wait...I didn't even get halfway through the YouTube video I'd queued up. Lol Staff was friendly and the food was packaged well. After the short drive home I unpacked my food on the coffee table. The smell in the car was almost unbearable... It's a wonder I made it home before breaking into it. The food was fresh and hot. It came with the expected things on the side. A red hot sauce, onions, peppers, and limes. The beef in both the birria and barbacoa tasted great. The tacos were also topped with onions and cilantro. The torta with onions, cilantro, and avocado. I really enjoyed the roll the torta came on. A little hard and crunchy on the outside to hold things together and soft on the inside. It would almost be perfect for a proper cheesesteak...if you know you know. Unlike some other trucks these guys don't skimp on the meat. It could be dangerous having a truck with birria this close to home. Something the other two trucks nearby lack... With all transparency they're not my absolute favorite quesa birria tacos... They don't serve the side of consume for dipping. But they are good! And I don't need to burn through the gas to drive over to Flame or track down Nina's or Taqueria Marissa. I'm glad I stopped. Hopefully others will give them some business too. I'll definitely be a return customer and will be checking out more of their menu! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553402785567&mibextid=LQQJ4d

The cemitas are packed with food. I recommend the milanesa one!! Their tacos are made of homemade tortillas. You only need one because they are ENORMOUS. Very few Mexican places have good horchata or aguas frescas because they are usually watered down with all the ice. I recommend the agua de melón and agua de horchata. This is all good quality food. They have other traditional dishes from Puebla. Everything is fresh, delicious, and with generous portions. The customer service is phenomenal. They treat you very well! They are approachable, friendly, and patient. It was my first time there and I had a lot of questions. They kindly answered them. They also have a great system. They have speakers and call out your name when your food is ready that way you don't have to stand outside waiting, you can just wait in your car. We showed up at 10:45pm and they still had tons of people ordering food. When you see a lot of people ordering, it's a good sign. I also love supporting this business because they started from the bottom. They used to only cater and sometimes sell at the bailes. They worked so hard to make this food truck a reality. They also support local non profits. They always give back to the community. Support local!

Looking forward to visiting the truck again and enjoying other variations on their menu.
