So this is a hidden gem. Im afraid to but i need to share it with thise crossing the border into…read moremexico. First let me explain something about tacos de cabeza al vapor in Mexico: this type of tacos are consumed and consider a breakfast meal. Yes you eat this in the morning and thats why you see this joints open so early and close so early(most of the time they run out). For this reason i make it my mission to not cross the border anything later than 10 am. You have a couple of options in this wonderful and humble establishment. Cabeza(cheek, cows head beef, sounds weird but truly delicious) and Lengua(beef tongue), as well as conzome(the broth the meat is cooked in with cilantro and onion). The cabeza is would say is better than the lengua. It never disappoints and always full of flavor. They load up each taco and i believe its $15 pesos per taco, i never ask for price i just order and pay after I'm done ;-). And no I'm not worried, these are the mist humble and respectful family you will meet. Aside from the meat their tortillas are unique and quite good. They are different and you will not know what I'm saying until you try a taco. I usually get 4 or 5 tacos and a consome. I prefer the red salsa as it the spiciest and has the most flavor. But they have the green which is also good but less spicy. Try this place and dont be scared. Its your typical hole in the wall mexican taco stand.

To be totally honest Birria tacos were a bit dry and didn't have much flavor. The el Pastor tacos were better and the homemade salsa was perfect, a nice spicy kick to it. The tortillas were also quite dry. Tacos were overall 3/5 However the Tortas were easily a 5/5. I saw one and knew I needed to try it. The buttery bread combined with the toppings made this dish pop right off. These Tortas are what would have me coming back to this food truck! So simply put Tortas over tacos here.

I had heard that the owner can be harsh, but I have no experience with that. I had 3 of the shrimp tacos. These are some of the best shrimp tacos I've ever had. First of all, the breaded shrimp were huge. I'm comparing them to Del Taco's shrimp, and these were double the meat per shrimp. The taste of the shrimp was delicious and not overly breaded or rubbery as can be the case when they are overcooked. The tortillas were cooked perfectly, with a bit of puff to them, and crispy enough so they didn't fall apart under the weight of the contents. The flavor of the tortilla was very good as well. The tacos came with a mix of lettuce, tomato, and sauce to compliment the shrimp. I am positively sure that I'll order these again when I'm in the area.

There were multiple cars so it's popular. We walked in & were greeted right away. You sit wherever you want. There were two ladies taking care of the customers. Our server came over right away. We both got iced tea. They bring a basket of chips & salsa out, as well as ketchup. Hubby didn't like the tea. He said it tasted like it had cinnamon in it. I didn't mind it. Hubby ordered the BTL & added avocado to the sandwich with fries. I got the grilled cheese with fries. The food was hot & fresh. It was like eating at your grandma's house. The restaurant & restroom was very clean. Great service & good food. We will have to stop here again during our vacation trips.
