For this week's review, I chose Tacos El Guero, and it's easily one of my favorite food trucks in…read moreBirmingham. If you want something quick, authentic, and actually flavorful, this is the spot. Every time I go, the food tastes super fresh. The tortillas are warm, the meat is well-seasoned, and nothing feels overly greasy or heavy. I usually get a mix of tacos and they are always so good. They keep it simple with toppings like onion and cilantro, but the flavor speaks for itself. The sauces they give on the side are also really good and add the perfect amount of heat. The service is fast and efficient, even when there's a line, and the staff is always friendly. Since it's a food truck, it's more of a grab-and-go experience, but that's part of what makes it fun and casual. Overall, I'd give Tacos El Guero 5 stars. It's one of those places that's simple but consistently hits every time.

I tried their El Pastor tacos, but I wasn't impressed. The shell lacked crispness, and while the…read morered and green sauces had a unique flavor, they didn't quite hit the mark for me. The El Pastor meat just didn't taste well seasoned. Almost flat in flavor, and overall the tacos felt a bit bland.

They serve breakfast all day and the lunch/dinner specials are great. It's a hole in the wall place but it works. There is no dining area perse so it best to get take out. The gentlemen there were nice and courteous and offered their best seller which is the fat mama burger which is two ground 1/4lbs chuck patties, bacon, shrimp, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, mayo, and mustard. It was delicious! The size of it was monstrous! It was magnificent! I had to cancel my order of fries! Lol They have beverages here but not on tap; everything is in a can. That's a good thing in my opinion. The prices of everything is very reasonable and manageable. The service is top notch but what I enjoyed the most was the conversation and recommendation as this was my first, but not last, time visiting. I'm so mad I'm just now trying them. I'll be trying their breakfast next time because I saw a plate the owner was making and it made my mouth water like a Doberman Pinscher finally getting that bone. They accept cash, debit, and credit, the latter via square and they'll email or text you a receipt if needed. Very convenient and practical. They also do catering so if you have a function coming up, give them a call. All in all, this was a great first time experience. Great recommendations, quick food service, awesome owner and cook, and worthy of service. Visit these guys ASAP!

I was just talking with my daughter just now and asked her if she had ever had a Travis, when I was young we called it the TRAVIS BEARBURGER back in those days everything was BEAR FRANKS BEAR BEEF FRANKS.

I've seen them in various parts of town so chances are you've seen them around the Birmingham area at least once or twice. Known for their burgers and polish dogs the menu serves up delicious food that's saucy and fresh. They even have some vegan options for you. My go to is the polish dog that comes with a welcomed large polish sausage, onions and peppers drenched in their special sauce. The polish sausage is thick and seasoned with garlic. The hot dog bun and everything in between is a must try!

However, there is something different about Taco Tech! The food has a unique refreshing international flair beyond Mexico with strong Indonesian and Korean influences. I normally try to stop by for lunch whenever colorful truck is stationed near my office. Some of my favorite choices include the following: -Beef Rendang Taco (Indonesian-style spicy braised shredded beef with dill pickle and green onion served in sets of two for $6) -Beef Bulgogi Taco (Korean-style barbecue beef with pickled carrots, green onions, and sesame seeds served in sets of two for $6) -Carne Asada (Mexican-style grilled beef with fresh onion and cilantro served in sets of two for $6) If you love to mix things up and love tacos, or quesadillas, or nacho salad please do yourself a favor and check out the awesome fusion tacos and selections from the folks of Taco Tech!

I've tried the Sweet Tea Fried Chicken Sandwhich before and it was good BUT it was something different about this one. It was fried to "perfection" and the seasonings were on point. I enjoyed every bite!!! Now, I am never thrilled about the consistency of the potato salad but once I get over the fact there are no chunks of potatoes, I really like the flavor. Check them out either at the truck or several of their brick-and-mortar locations.

I love Saw's so I was excited that the Street Kitchen food truck came to our office this week…read more Since every location has a few unique items on the menu and the food truck is no exception, I decided to try one of their specialties the Smoked Sausage Hushpuppies. Since they also have a Conecuh Corndog I thought they would basically be mini corn dogs. Instead it was typical hushpuppies with small pieces of the sausage mixed in. Not bad but not quite what I was expecting. They also were a little greasier than I thought they should be. The pimento cheese & pepper jelly was a nice accompaniment and added to the flavor. Ultimately I will probably try something else next time. I got a side of the Mac N Cheese which is my usual go to at most all the locations. Banana Pudding is also good. It did not take long to order and food was ready pretty quickly. The Colonel (Sweet Tea Fried Chicken, Pimento Cheese, Tomato, Pickles & white BBQ sauce) is one of my favorites and my wife is a fan of the Smoked Chicken.

The line really didn't seem long enough for the wait to order but that could have been a customer causing the delay. When they are busy it would be helpful to have more than one person taking orders. We had hoped to find some seating on the patio since it was such a pleasant evening but most everyone else had the same idea and there was not any available tables. Once we ordered it did not take long for our chips and queso to arrive followed soon after by our entrees. They actually offered us a second tray of queso & chips due to an order mix up (we think it was actually supposed to go to a nearby table). The El Matador Margarita (premium white tequila, Patron Citronage & pineapple juice) was good and could have easily been happy with another or even a pitcher. I opted for the Guacin' on Sunshine (shrimp, black beans, pineapple pico, cilantro ranch & guac)) & Tan Lines (mahi, pineapple pico, cilantro, ranch & fresco cheese) tacos and my wife chose the Reef 'n Beef bowl (steak, shrimp, tomatoes, rice, black beans, roasted corn, onions & cilantro ranch). I had requested no guacamole but it came on anyway and they also went overboard with the onion for my wife's bowl. Otherwise everything was good but not as incredible as I was expecting. If it was closer to home, we still would likely at least pick up regularly and we will definitely plan to come back when my daughter & her husband come back in town.
