I got the root beer carnita taco to go and didn't eat it till well over 24 hours later and let me tell you, it's AMAZING. Chloe helped us decide at the cart and she was so lovely and helpful. Will absolutely be returning even just due to the amazing customer service we received, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for some good tacos!!!

Poblano Chicken Taco and the Blueberry Chipotle Brisket Tacos

May I have another!?! Yes you may! So on our journey of Southern Oregon, we are just beginning to find some great hidden gems. This is one of them. We are staying at a quaint little spot in downtown Redmond and craving some good street tacos... now I was expecting little tacos with either chicken pork or shredded beef. Nothing like what we had to choose from. We could walk yo this spot, it is a good truck zone right next to the cute chapel turned pizza spot (grace and hammer pizza, we ate here two nights ago and mmmmmmm) and as you will see by the photos, there is also another fabulous truck right next to this spot. Where the location is, it is in a spot with tables, two fire pits, and it is adjacent to a pub of which you can take your food in and order beer/wine and they will bring your food to you (that is if they aren't busy) When we arrived we weren't sure if we would just take our food to the hotel and eat there, but so glad we didn't. Both of the food trucks helped us out by showing us where to go. Being not from here and trying to find great places. This one is one we will hit again and again, if not for the food but the atmosphere and people. The fantastic two guys working at this truck when we first arrived talked us through the menu and helped me find the items that my sensitive palate (to spice) could handle. We ordered the Loaded Beer Battered zucchini fries, drizzled with yumminess (ranch, poblano, cilantro and cotija cheese) Root beer carnitas (he said these would be spicy for me but I tried them and they were soooo delicious... until the heat hit and my eyes started burning... but please know, I am a wimp and a half when it comes to spice, my friend devoured them and had no problem with the spice... the meat was tender and soooo flavorful. Poblano Chicken Taco, this was one that I devoured!!!! I will get two of these babies next time. So good and yes, you have to have the pickled onion on it, so not take it off... it adds the zing you need to make it ring.. (cheesy, yes I know) Blueberry Chipotle Brisket- I know, it doesn't sound something that would work but oh yes it does! There was so much meat, and so much flavor!!! We also got some chips and salsa, which were good, he gave us a sample of all three salsas, the problem was, we had so much food, we didn't have room to put them into our tummies. We sat in the bar and everyone there were so welcoming and made sure we had what we needed. So, as we take our journey further west, trying to find the fun mom and pop places and great food trucks, Westside Taco truck is one to NOT miss, you won't be disappointed.

If you come to Redmond and you don't come here you have made a mistake! Aaron is super nice and informative. I'm Latino and can tell you this place is a must visit!

a few things that stood out: prices are crazy, no actual mexican restaurant would get away charging $6 a taco. tortillas are inconsistent & too thick so they rip open. root beer in carnitas was uh... a new one. i'd rather go get my street tacos from la posada down the road. Edit: LMAO in addition to their crummy food their owners are apparently passive aggressive children who can't handle a poor review without their ego completely deflating. oh, and amber claims i've never had her food? it's not impossible for people to have your food and not like it, get over yourselves.

Hands down, BEST TACOS in central Oregon. Their style is more high end, so don't expect carne asada street tacos, rolled tacos, or even burritos (there's a time and place for everything!). Just kick ass tacos. The tortillas are cooked per order from house made masa. The blueberry brisket tacos are the best on the menu, in my opinion, but everything is a must-try at Westside taco. Of special note: the employees and owners are super friendly and they bend over backwards to make sure you are satisfied. Also, it doesn't hurt that they are located at a GREAT brewery taphouse . read more

Ok I am gonna give it to y'all straight: I am from Texas, went to school in Austin, and I have been trying to find some amazing tacos in Oregon. This place has comes the closest to hitting the sweet spot, and in my view, has the best tacos I have found in Oregon so far. Bold claims, yes, but give it a try and maybe too will agree. We ordered 2 and loved it so much we went back for more. I tried the two veggie tacos to start, and they were incredible! Be warned that the Thai vegan one can really bring it with the spice. Loved them so much, though, that I went back and got another chicken taco. read more

Yum yum yum yum!! I am so delighted that we happened to stop here on our road trip through Oregon! Each taco on the menu was $4, two of us split 3 (so we could try them out) and we were blown out of the water by the amount of flavor we got for $12! We shared the blueberry barbacoa the root beer carnitas, and the Thai curry chicken tacos and were not disappointed by any of them! They each had juicy meat, powerful flavors that mixed well and were serve on thicker corn tortillas. All I can say is YUM!! The staff was incredibly kind and the wait was almost nonexistent. A must stop if you're in the area and a taco enthusiast. read more

I've only eaten the Blueberry Brisket Barbacoa, but honestly, it may be the best Barbacoa Taco I've ever had. The corn tortilla was crisp on the outside, but still perfectly warm and soft inside. The brisket was well prepped, not overly salted or too fatty, which you seem to find too often. The addition of blueberry to the brisket really made it stand out though -- that subtle hit of sweetness was perfect. But then... their salsa really set it off. This salsa is no joke. The spice never hides, it's right there up front, but there's still so much flavor. I'm ready to go back and sample everything else from the menu. And order another Barbacoa Taco. Or two. read more

This place is always amazing. I went here in the middle of winter, sat outside, and did not care one bit. These tacos are huge! Easily the size of 3 normal street tacos, so $5 for a taco is completely fine. 3 tacos and some chips is more than enough for my wife and me. Today's special was the Al Pastor. It was amazing, huge spice factor with large pieces of pineapple made for a delicious combo. Employees are super friendly. Every time I go here all is hear is every customer telling the staff how amazing the food was. Easily the best tacos in central Oregon, hands down. El Sancho doesn't even compare. read more

Randy ordered the chile rellano and a cheese enchilada. The enchilada was filled with cheddar and no white cheeses and not much of it. The chile rellano was better but the crema didn't have much flavor. The filling of the rellano lacked flavor too so he added salsas and that helped. The beans were too thick and the rice was dry. I ordered grilled chicken tacos and they weren't good. Overcooked meat and no flavor. I added some salsa and that helped a bit. I'm sure it's an us thing. We are used to so much more flavor.

There are plenty of good places in town.

These are the BEST tacos I have ever had. Every time I eat at Westside Taco, it's as enjoyable as the first time. The tacos are no ordinary tacos- they are a flavor explosion in your mouth. Their homemade tortillas really make these tacos stand out. The Al Pastor tacos are my favorite when they have them. But when they don't, I know I can always count on getting the delicious Blueberrry Brisket Barbacoa tacos and the Root Beer Carnitas tacos. Not only is the food amazing, Aaron, Amber, Drew and Mary provide outstanding customer service. They are personable, friendly, and make the whole experience of enjoying a nice meal better with their wit and banter. Redmond, OR is lucky to have this one of a kind taco truck for us to enjoy the most outstanding tacos and wonderful service. read more

The tacos were insanely good! Aaron brought all 4 kinds to the table as well as the amazing onion rings and explained the sauces and process of smoking the brisket. He and his wife were very friendly, which we loved, because...this is Redmond. The Buffalo chicken tacos, the brisket barbacoa and carnitas were our favorites, but I think it was the tortillas and homemade pickled onions that put these tacos over the edge. Totally worth $4 each and LOADED. Soon I'll be craving these and need to go back! read more

A friend of mine mentioned this little taco joint in an alley downtown Redmond, said it was incredible. In pursuit of a beer at the Vault, we stumbled upon said taco joint. Holy cow! I just asked the cook to serve us whatever he recommended. He brought us the Root Beer Carnitas and the Blueberry Brisket. Both were absolutely exceptional! Unique, delicious and best I've had in the area. We will definitely be back! read more

Really great tacos, some of the best in Central Oregon! I love the location next to the Vault. I was bummed to see the prices of the tacos go up, though. I would give them 5 stars but $4 a taco?? C'mon. It's crazy how many food trucks charge the same price or higher than an actual restaurant. I will be going back but I may have to save up a little $$ before I do, lol. read more

Amber and Aaron are wonderful! If you are in Redmond this is a must stop. I came here from Portland with my brother and his girlfriend and they showed us endless kindness. They even brought out a complementary taco for our dog. On top of amazing service the tacos were phenomenal. I would recommend the Thai chicken! Do not miss out on this place! read more

Best tacos of my life and I'm 36 and world traveled. Every taco flavor actually tastes different than the others. They're not dripping with grease. The staff and owner very clearly care about the food they produce. Im a repeat customer and go out of my way to eat here. read more

These tacos were so good! I got the root beer carnitas and the Thai curry tacos. The flavors of both were amazing! I was still talking about them several days later. Next time I'm in Redmond, I'm definitely making a stop to get more. :-) read more

Yes, the tacos just might be better than sex... Oh man, the carnitas, the brisket, and the gringo.... Every time I come to town to visit my mom I make her take me here. The tortillas are hand made to order and are the best I've ever had. read more
