5 Stars -- Worth the Stop! Total hidden gem in Elgin! The Taco Stop may look like a little ramshackle joint from the outside, but don't let that fool you. The line was out the door when we arrived, and they burned through it fast -- thanks to a small but mighty team of four working hard in the back, cranking out fresh homemade tortillas like pros. I had the large bacon, egg, and cheese taco -- the bacon was perfectly crisp, not greasy, and full of flavor. Their spicy tomatillo salsa was a standout -- bright, bold, and just the right kick. My husband got the fajita beef taco and was seriously impressed with the flavor and portion size. Quick service, real ingredients, and food that hits the spot. Definitely stopping here again next time we're passing through! read more

Amazing food and so reasonable. The people are always friendly. They do deserve the "best tacos in Elgin"

CASH ONLY - Venmo and Cash App accepted This was hands down the most wonderful breakfast taco experience I have had in a long long time. The food is delicious, the staff working has to be either family or best of friends, and they were FAST. My tacos were waiting for me in a bag before I was done paying. The man that took my order was extremely kind. I did not have cash on hand and my phone service was out. He wrote his info on the bag, and told me to pay when my phone got service. This is the love that you get from supporting local businesses. I called 3 people about my experience and recommend all to support this business. You will not be disappointed. I will be back every single time I am in Elgin. read more

The Taco Stop - Knew this taco truck had a line to the highway. Knew it was gonna be good. - Mexican Near Me - Elgin, Texas

The tacos are amazing! The size, flavor and variety are all perfect! Definitely worth the wait.

Best breakfast tacos in the area!! Relatively fast service if you time it right, try and go early or you'll have a bit of a wait.

Best tacos in the United States. Fast and friendly. Delicious food, everything is good not only the tacos!

Best in Elgin... I would eat there more often but the line can get pretty long but I guess that's a good thing...

Very delicious tacos! You definitely get your money's worth!! They stay busy-so expect a little wait-but it's never anything crazy long.

I think I speak for the majority of Elgin when I say they have the best breakfast tacos in Elgin! I typically get the egg, bacon, and potato with cheese and it hits every time! Also be prepared to wait in line because this is a very small shack and some mornings it can get very busy. The customer service is always good though. They are a family owned business who genuinely love their jobs and serving the community. I don't think I've ever met anyone that didn't enjoy their food. I definitely recommend coming here! read more

Delicious breakfast tacos!!! I drive by here every Monday morning when I go from Austin back to College Station and just last Monday I decided to stop and try it for once because I had been craving breakfast tacos for a long time. I ordered one large chorizo and egg taco and added potatoes for a little extra. The taco was really good!!! I know I'll be coming back every time I have to drive back in the morning and thinking about that makes me almost look forward to driving back read more

Simple authentic tastes that you will ALWAYS wait in line for. What makes this place great? It is that there are no flashy advertisements, catchy icons, or established presentation; this place is EXACTLY where the locals go to eat a great breakfast taco, and I am probably breaking a local rule by publishing it here. In the morning this place may look like a "job site" or pick up point, but trust me everyone is there for the food. It pays to be patient, strike up a conversation, and prepare for your order while waiting in line. It will be worth the wait. I could name all the best options and food choices for my preference, but it would be best for you to try ANY of them yourself for the great taste. Just know that the Salsa, Pico, and meats are marinated and fresh. (see the photos for ideas) Things to note... they are CASH ONLY, and they close normally before 2pm or so, possibly sooner if they run out of product. Yes, they do run out because they are that good. How to get there? If you are traveling East on US-290 from Austin (about 35-40 minutes) to Elgin, in the morning hours, and you need a breakfast fix.. THIS IS THE STOP. The only way you will recognize it is from all the trucks, workers, and other locals hanging around. Should you need a landmark, look for the big Oak Tree on the Eastbound side, or on the Westbound side look for the "Autozone" and the "Golden Chick" (this place will be almost directly across from the Taco Stop). (The address provided is to the nearest building about 300 feet from the Taco Stop) I do not get to stop here as often as I would like, but when my traveling hours meet my taco needs, it is mandatory on the itinerary. So avoid the fast chain places, and the "Whatta" evers that will tempt you. Stop here and have an inexpensive, but great little meal. And when you are there DON'T TELL THEM that I told you about it, after all, I wouldn't want the locals knowing their secret is out! read more

Been here a couple times for breakfast and has NEVER let me down, so when I found a $10 bill in my pocket (And I never have Cash on me anymore) I jetted there from Manor for lunch...I decided to try the Gorditas, since I really never have tried them anywhere else...Biggest mistake I made...I ordered 2..and these things were Huge!!!...I got the Fajita and Carne Guisada all the way (loaded with all the fixins)...Some how...I managed to stuff it all in my gut...Both were popping with flavor...and at $3.25 each it was a steal of a deal...I will be back very soon to try another one....yes just one this time...If you in the area, stop by...you wont be disappointed at all..:) read more

Best breakfast tacos I've had. Family owned and operated for years. To me they represent the ol' time hospitality and integrity that was the deciding factor of where we'd raise our family. There are still good hearted people out there, they're charging pennies over the price they charged when they first opened when they could've justifiably doubled prices by now. I support taco stop 100% read more

Great breakfast tacos, really terrific. Salsa is scratch made and was really good Id give 5 stars if they didnt take so long though! I can't stop here because I can't sit for 15 minutes every time for 1 taco. read more

I absolutely love taco stop. Missed it when I moved away and the first place I went when I came back!

This is an AMAZING taco spot for breakfast tacos. The line is a bit but they push food out quickly and definitely worth a wait.

Very kind. Very good food. Fresh and cooked on the spot. Not just put in to go containers. They put it on a paper plate and wrap each one individually. I like that. Fresh read more

I found this place to be severely over rated. Nothiinf special here. I don't get the hype? Plenty of way better places near by.

Best tacos anywhere...some of the friendliest people you can find, they love their customers and always greet you with a smile

Always good, homemade tortillas, generous portions too.
