    Brisket sandwich meal
    Martin M.

    I've been by the bus 3 times since it opened and have had the pulled pork, ribs, chicken, and brisket. I'm a fan of all the local bbq companies, but the brisket here is the best in the area. The sandwiches have a generous portion of meat, and the 1/2 chicken is incredible for the price. Very good coleslaw too.

    Full rack of ribs! Fall off the bone

    Pulled pork is awesome. I've also had the ribs and they were money, too. I wish they'd park this RV in my driveway.

    Great BBQ. Ribs are very tender, best we have had in this area. Don't let the converted bus fool you, it's legit.

    Omgosh! SO delicious. So fresh. And the best customer service. Casa De Avila Tacos is awesome!…read moreHighly recommend! Can't wait to go back.

    I rate restaurants within their category and concept. I am not comparing a neighborhood Mexican…read morerestaurant to a Michelin star fine dining experience. If a place delivers quality food, represents its cuisine well, and exceeds expectations for its setting, that earns a high rating from me. We recently visited Casa De Avila in Leesburg, and I have to start with the horchata because it was truly the star of the meal. I am of Mexican heritage, my mom is Mexican, and I grew up drinking homemade horchata. This one tasted just like it should. It was creamy, clearly made with milk and condensed milk, with that soft sweetness and a gentle hint of cinnamon. It honestly tasted homemade, and that alone made me smile. Now, it is hard for me personally to give most Mexican restaurants 5 stars, and that has more to do with my background than the restaurant itself. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and grew up eating incredible home cooking from my mom, who is an amazing cook. That naturally shapes my expectations. In the DMV area, it has been tough to find truly authentic Mexican flavors. With the exception of La Jarochita, and Mancha Cocina Mexicana, which is more elevated but very well done, good Mexican food can be hard to come by here. All that said, Casa De Avila serves very good food and is probably the best I have found in this category locally. The sopes were made fresh, which makes a huge difference in both flavor and texture. The tacos were solid overall. The asada was very good, well seasoned and flavorful. The al pastor was good, but it did not quite have that deep, traditional flavor you get from proper trompo style preparation. The esquites were also tasty, and the kids loved that they added hot Cheetos. That is a trend we saw in Los Angeles years ago, so it felt fun and nostalgic to see it here. If I could offer one suggestion, it would be about the salsa. The salsa served tasted more like a bottled style Mexican salsa. I would love to see a true house made salsa roja or salsa verde, the kind where you char the tomatoes, tomatillos, chiles, and onions before blending. That deep roasted flavor is such a big part of authentic Mexican cooking and would elevate the whole experience even more. The service was amazing from start to finish. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and the staff really helped make the experience even better. Overall, Casa De Avila is doing a lot right. The food is flavorful, the horchata is exceptional, and it stands out in an area where good Mexican food is not easy to find. While my personal background makes me a tough critic, this is still a place I would happily return to. A solid 4 stars.

With around twelve flavors on offer, there was something for everyone. As the bride and groom, we had a blast making our way to the truck -- I went with pistachio (phenomenal) and my wife chose mint chocolate chip. Our guests raved about the flavors all night. If you're hosting an event and looking for something that will genuinely delight your guests, look no further. Highly recommend.

    Oh my goodness!!! This was such a cute party favor…read more A good friend of mine hosted a big party for her husband and hired this ice cream truck to come by and serve the guests. My girl went all out for her man!! Shoot-even his grown son turned into the biggest kid after ordering his malt milkshake. They offer a variety of sundaes, milkshakes, ice cream flavors, etc. And it was delicious! The customer service was friendly, but they try to keep the line moving, so don't step to that truck window still trying to figure out your life based on their menu..hahahaha. Full transparency, I do not know how much they cost, but they have plenty of social media handles that contain their business info. I hope to hire them for an event one day! Highly recommend!

There was an 85 cent uncharge for shrimp and shrimp tacos are one of my favorites (al pastor being another in my top 100). It looked delicious but as I was eating, I realized there were only TWO shrimp in it... and they weren't big either. The Chorizo may have been the blandest (most bland) chorizo I ever had. It had zero redness and tasted like ground beef dusted chorizo spice (I think the Spice Girls kicked her out early, BTW). The chicken taco was decent and what you'd expect. For &17 for 3 tacos and can of Coke Zero, I was disappointed. I should have just gone to Sheetz for their 6 tacos for $6 instead. IYKYK! ;)

I was confused with ordering online because you select 4 tortilla options. I selected corn and flour tortillas. How would they know which tortilla is for which taco? Not sure if I misunderstood the instructions. My ground beef taco had a corn tortilla and my fish taco had a flour tortilla. I wanted the opposite but it tasted delicious nonetheless. The combination of the cabbage makes it crunchy and the crema is creamy. I enjoyed the salsa. The pineapple salsa was sweeter than I enjoy. The XX hot and green salsas were my favorite. I actually ate those with the chips. Im glad the server suggested the Xtra spicy salsa. It wasnt spicy at all. All the tomato based salsas have a little sweetness. When I went to pick up my order there was noone else there. Which was surprising for 5pm. It is a nice spot to dine. Ample seating with a lively colorful restaurant.
