Egg & Chorizo, Egg & Bacon, Egg & Cactus

Dan M.

This was a food truck located on a corner. The menu had mostly different taco combinations along with burritos and combination platters. The food was made to order and ready in a timely matter. I had three breakfast tacos ($2.50 each). The ones I chose were egg and cactus, egg and chorizo, and egg and bacon on flour tortillas. They also came with a side of hot salsa and a green sauce that enhanced each taco. Each was stuffed and was extremely hot. My favorite was the egg and chorizo. The cactus was interesting as it had a soft texture, but it did not really have a taste. I should have eaten it separate to get a better feel. Will I go back? I would.

This Taco spot is located right across from my gym LiftATX which made it super convenient post workout. The prices are $3.50ish per taco which is fairly reasonable. I ordered the chicken fajita, al pastor and campechano (chorizo x bistec). As a HUGE street tacos fan this a typical order for me so I have a lot of data to go off. Overall I actually thought the chicken fajita was the best which is normally not the case. Chicken was crispy but tender and the flavor was fresh and well seasoned. The pastor and campechano were good but surprisingly lacking a bit of flavor. I have had far more delicious tacos when it comes to these 2 proteins but it was pretty good. Additionally, the salsa verde and rojo were lacking big time. Not a lot of flavor on the verde in particular but still made the taco better. Agua de melon was absolutely delicious, very large and refreshing so highly recommend. Service was kind and fast so no complaints there.

I love this food truck because they are consistently open. On Saturdays they are open until 10 pm. The tacos are so damn good. Well worth the price. It's located in the parking lot of a muffler shop so parking is hard when it's busy.

Suadero Barbacoa Breakfast Burrito Al Pastor Bistek Shrimp

Carrie M.

This small taco truck is a nice stop after Austin Bouldering Project. I had the barbacoa taco, suadero taco, and breakfast burrito. The tacos were delicious, and the green sauce was flavourful and spicy. My friend's favourite was the bistec. The breakfast burrito did not meet my expectations as it did not have much flavour. I was also confused by the price as the total was $13, but that didn't match up to the listed menu prices.

Leticia M.

I got tree tacos, al pastor, carnitas and barbacoa. Carnitas and Barbacoa were great and very fresh! Al Pastor was ok but still good! Came with a salsa for each taco and they were spicy and enhanced each taco. I also got an horchata that was a big size and very good as well. I didn't have to wait long for my food and the outdoor seating is nice.

It's hard to go wrong on Riverside when you're looking for street tacos in the middle of the night. It's hard cause it's right next to Anita's but we decided to give is a shot and I'm so glad we did. This taco brought me back to life that night, I only wish I ate more.

One of my favorite taco trucks in Austin! It doesn't look like much from the front, but everything I've tried has been amazing. My favorite is the Al Pastor tacos. It's really easy to call ahead and pick up your order to-go if you're in a rush!

Scott C.

I love this place!!! This is my hidden gem in Austin. Great tacos with handmade corn and flour tortillas. Price is right at $2/taco so load up! If you are looking for tasty tacos that don't cost an arm and a leg you found the spot. That being said, you aren't going to find some crazy Tex mex combos here, just amazing prepared meat, onions and cilantro. Yum! Owners are super friendly and don't worry if you don't speak Spanish, they will understand you just fine. I've come 3 times in the last 2 weeks since I found this place. They are seriously that good!

Jiyoon S.

Are they the best tacos I've ever had or even the cheapest? Nope but they're still GOOD. They got you covered on your three main meats (barbacoa, carnitas, al pastor) and while they ran a bit too much on the fatty side they still hit the spot. I will say their salsas were a little disappointing though, a tad watery with not too much flavor. I will say the corn tortillas are some of the best I've had in a minute though. The horchata is the perfect accompaniment (not to mention MASSIVE), so all in all, not too bad of a spot to swing by if you're in the area.

Super tacos for a great price! Food truck out side of a tire shop but had two picnic tables to eat at.

Pastor, Chicken Fajita, Shrimp tacos along with a breakfast burrito! Their sauces are yummy and the green sauce has great flavor.

Rene M.

The inner Mexican child in me smiled from ear to ear. These tacos are not only bomb but AUTHENTIC. I Love how this stand is chillin on the side of the road ready to serve amazing food only by a whim would someone take the chance to try it this is why I am writing a review. The price to flavor ratio is through the roof. The burritos are at a great size can't wait to come back for more.

Jedsada Y.

A hole in the wall inside the tire station parking lot on Airport Blvd. Taqueria La Libertad offers some great tacos. It was that good that we had to stop by again in the morning for their awesome breakfast tacos. The green sauce has some nice kick to it!

BEST Mexican food truck in Austin period !!! Best breakfast burritos, gorditas, sopes, breakfast tacos !

Don't let the shabby exterior fool you! These tacos are really solid. I got the suadero, al pastor and tripe. Suadero was easily the winner, followed by tripa. Service is fast and they're generous with sauces and limes. And for $3 a pop it's a great value. read more

I love coming here to get some tacos or burritos. The food is consistent, and it doesn't take long to get the order. I've called them to place orders or gone up front and had no issues with either one. There are a couple of picnic tables out front to eat at, but I usually do takeout. Food: I've tried almost all of the meat options, but my favorite is the Barbacoa tacos. My partner likes the shrimp and chicken tacos. Side note: I love supporting small family-owned businesses. This is a good one to stop by if you're in the area and craving tacos or burrito. I haven't tried the rest of the menu but I am looking forward to trying them next time I go. read more

Taqueria La Libertad is a reliable five star taco truck. Today I did chorizo and egg and chorizo abd potato. Both were a little greasier than usual, but it doesn't deninish the grade. Good fillings. Flour tortillas are perfect. Not too thick. Reheated. Two breakfast tacos for $5. I use the yellow salsa, which has a nice bite. This is a must eat at taco truck in Austin. read more

Food: 4.75 / 5 Service: 5 / 5 Cleanliness: 4.5 / 5 Parking: 3.5 / 5 Price: 4.5 / 5 Overall I would give it 4.5 star on Yelp. Taqueria La Libertas is a VERY solid spot but not OUTSTANDING for me. My barber is just across the street so when I'm hungry, I grab myself some tacos from here. Nothing bad from this spot. Service is solid but parking is kinda meh. I recommend checking it out as this might be a sleeper/underrated spot in the area!

I was craving several of the menu items since I saw the photos. Woke up hungry so went for a couple of breakfast burritos. I'm giving the place 3 stars because: Positive: 1) Burritos were tasty. I got egg, potato bacon, cheese & the husband got egg, bean & cheese. 2) They were quite large! You're getting the equivalent of at least 3 breakfast tacos with these. Not the greatest: 1) I started calling when they opened (according to online hours) & they didn't pick up for 1/2 an hour. 2) They really were like breakfast tacos, prep & flavor-wise. As much as I like breakfast tacos, the whole reason I went here was because the pictures showed the tortillas all toasted & grilled. Nope. Soft tortillas. Good, but just like tacos with a larger tortilla & folded ends. 3) No masks. Well, the gal who took my card put on a mask *after* she opened the window & was reminded to, but the two others in the truck cooking were maskless. 4) (Not their fault, but...) 3 others waiting for food just outside were maskless as well. If you're being religious about masks & social distancing, might want to wait this one out. read more

I'll probably increase to a 5 after giving this little gem a few more visits. The corn tortilla was a bit dry without enough inside to cut the dryness.

Ambiance here feels upscale, with instagram-worthy decor and swanky lighting, but casual enough that I don't need to dress up too much to come by and hang out at the bar. Service has been quick and friendly when I'm there but, to be fair, I always go on pretty slow days/hours. It's a nicer take on tex-mex that feels and tastes way more authentic than other places in Austin. I've been back frequently and would definitely recommend to others.

I had one pretty big issue with waitstaff on my first visit, but that was quickly addressed by management and resolved in way that they've gained a customer for life.

For lunch I ordered the Carneasada Fajitas with chimichurri and my husband ordered the Carneasada Taqueria. With my fajitas came a side of frijoles, green rice & flour tortillas. Corn flour was the other option. Both meals came in pipin' hot & the smell coming from both was very aromatic, zesty & spice. Amazing taste, flavors, just the right amount of marinade on the Carneasada with a hint of lime. It was so delicious while enjoying the ambiance. Our server was a delight and took very good care of us. We didn't order any of their alcoholic beverages since we were both working, but definitely we will be back to enjoy more food and try out their beverages.

So we had to try... We were lucky to arrive at the right time (9 pm!) where we got their last table!! Make reservations or something because this is another one of those places that fills up! So- we were taken care of immediately: chips and some very hot salsas were set on the table while we chose. They menu is in QR code format, but we asked and got paper menus as well. Well I got the chicken sopecitos , my daughter got the pork ones and my partner got the meat tacos. Everything was delicious, the food arrived promptly, the portion size was perfect and bountiful and everything was super enjoyable. I really enjoyed trying some New Mexican favorites.

In fact, we've got an upcoming reservation that's been on the books for quite sometime. They've managed to remain delicious, relevant and in demand 50 years! That's saying something. I'll tell you what that says...it says they rule! Reservations can be tricky to get but oh so worth it. The bar & atrium are fantastic and they boast a generous happy hour. The restaurant area and entire space are decorated wonderfully. Amazing artwork adorns the walls, they've got extensive art all about, vaulted ceilings and more. It's kind of like being in a hacienda. It feels like you're in Mexico. Truly. The restaurant and food are upscale without being pretentious. How refreshing! Speaking of refreshing...they've got cocktails and mocktails that will knock your socks off. I'm a big fan of the Nojito. My boyfriend loves the Mexican martini (it's primo). Let's talk about food. Wow-wee is it everything and then some. This is the kind of Tex-Mex flavor that sends your tastebuds into a tailspin of goodness! On our visit we did a salsa flight (we did 3 salsas), the queso (melted muenster and Oaxacan), Wagyu beef tacos, and chicken verde enchiladas. We did a spread like that in order to share everything. Food so good I'd give ten stars if I could. I can't put my finger on it but there's just something so special about the food, the taste of it, and the quality. It's just incredible flavor explosion bite after bite. If I had to guess, I'd say the food has been made with love, skill, and attention to detail all these years. Hence, their amazing reputation. Service is beyond compare. Hands down some of the best I've experienced in all of my worldly travels. Fonda San Miguel (Tzintzuntzan) is a dream come true!

Bonus points for the seasonal or weekly selects they have - some super yummy creations.

The problem with Day Maker is the menu has such interesting choices that I generally wanted almost everything. Went with the Chorizo Benny and I will be back for that for sure! One of my fave breakfast items I've had in Austin (and ive had some good ones!) We also had the enchilada and Churro pancakes. I can't wait to come back and I'd bring friends/fam here for sure that visit.

Love that they're set up in a retro airstream -- such a fun vibe. Donuts are made fresh and topped to order, and it is 100% worth the wait. They've got large and mini sizes, so we went with a few different minis so we could try multiple flavors without overdoing it (or maybe we still overdid it, no regrets ). The menu has something for everyone, even more "basic" options for those who don't want all the toppings -- which honestly feels a little sacrilegious here haha. They also have great coffee, plenty of seating, and shaded tables so you can dig in right away and actually enjoy the moment. I honestly cannot pick a favorite menu item because I loved them all!!

This is one big dessert so I'm glad we shared it - honestly would be worth splitting a whole one amongst a few people unless you have a big sweet tooth! The staff were really quick with the order. There's ample seating by the truck which is probably nice for part of the year, but we were suffering on a hot summer day. I would highly recommend this spot - but keep in mind the weather as it's all outdoor and outdoor seating only.

First time bring here and the waiter recommended these items. I feel like I ordered the wrong items, or maybe a Texas Hash is not my type of breakfast food.

The egg was cook to perfection, the biscuit was dry though, and the gravy was a bit weird. It was more like a dressing than gravy. 3/5 Texas hash was sweet potatoes and pulled pork in what I can guess is like a curry sauce with lime, cilantros. I wouldn't order this again, we ate like 1/2 of it and didn't even togo home. I was expecting more like... breakfast sweet potatoes with a side of pulled pork, didn't expect that it was all mixed in and mashed together. 5/5 free rice Krispies, this was amazing. Probably the best home made rice Krispies I had in my life. Overall I need to comeback to try something else. Also the water here was good, didn't taste like Austin city water.

Sammie's has been hyped up on social media for a long time and I gotta say it's still underrated! I will gladly have Sammie's take the Pepsi challenge against red sauce joints in NYC/NJ etc. In fact, I've told friends and family that I am going to take them to Sammie's when they visit from there. We just had such a fantastic experience - everything..the vibe..the red light fixtures and the color of the booths and the floor..the service - our server was great..loved their outfits..really had an old school little italy feel to it. The food was much better than I even anticipated - as a guy who grew up on NJ diner mozzarella sticks, I have a high bar for them and these were magnificent. And seriously...taking the "everything's bigger in Texas" slogan and applying them to mozzarella sticks?! top 10 achievements of the decade. The chicken parm was perfect - well seasoned, proper amount of crisp..the basil on top...the perfect browning of the cheese. Also the lasanga was excellent..and best part - the leftovers..took it home and the next two days put them in a small cast iron and re-heated them..and the magic was right there in my hill country kitchen! Lastly and certainly not least - the cannoli...just look at the photo below.. I'll say, yes, the place is pricey but you can really easily split these entrees and then it becomes cheaper than a jersey strip center Italian joint.
