    The Big Lick
    Justin F.

    The Lick is a food truck in Houston. I ordered The Big Lick for $15. It comes with three chicken tenders, two pieces of fried corn, waffle fries, and choice of sauce (I chose their OG Lick Sauce). I had to wait about 5 minutes with no one in front of me. The chicken was very hot and cooked perfectly. I always worry about dry chicken and unseasoned breading, but that was not the case! The chicken was moist and the breading was light. It had a bit more peppery taste than other chicken places and was great without any sauce. The Lick Sauce is their counterpart to Raising Cane's or Dave's. It was much thinner and tangier than those. If you are an avid dipper, the cup is enough for about two of the three pieces. So order extra if you also want to dip your fries. The fries were standard waffle fries and came with a few ketchup packets. They tasted unsalted. This is especially noticeable after taking a bite of the well-seasoned chicken. This was the only disappointment of the meal. The fried corn was the star of the show. It has the same light breading as the chicken. It's bursting with flavor. I was left wanting more. Overall, it was a filling and tasty meal. If you see The Lick on a corner near you, be sure to check it out.

    Visited Tacos Tierra Caliente while in Houston. Timing is funny sometimes. I had just been chatting…read morewith Gretel about breakfast tacos the day we landed in Houston -- and breakfast tacos are one of my favourite things about visiting Texas. We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

    If you like the quesadillas at Taconazo, you'll like them here. My buddy took me here after a…read moreRockets game. We wanted Taconazo, but we didn't have any cash on us. Luckily, this spot takes both card and cash! I got the small beef quesadilla, and it was loaded with cheese. The small quesadilla was $5.50, and it was pretty decently sized for a small. They have salsa set out at the counter, so you can pack as much as you like. The red salsa was smoky and SPICY. Very tasty if you like spice I see a lot of great reviews about this place. I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me
