One VERY lucky find!! We were looking for lunch at an odd time (3:30 when other local places were closed) and happen to run across Cowboy Tacos and based on their excellent reviews, decided to give it a chance. WOW! Incredible blend of flavors from the shrimp tacos to the short rib tacos and the authentic guacamole… all exceptional. Such delicious food! Worth the trip from Sebring for sure.

What a nice little restaurant. Almost too little but definitely big on value and flavor. Situated ina strip mall, if you blink, you'll miss it. A bunch of us from the teamwent there and it was a bit of a surprise the place only could seat about 16 patrons in total. It's a counter order, almost fast food set-up, but they deliver the food to the tables. That is the only reason there I gave 4 stars for service and atmosphere. The food is the star of the show. The 7 of us shared different plates. The Super Nachos were indeed super. I had the Al Pastor quesadilla to start, and the flavor was amazing. The preparations are traditional with a twist. The short rib tacos we very tasty, as well. We enjoyed the carnitas tacos, birria quesadilla, the al pastor burger, and chicken tacos. Everything was

Just had two of the chicken tacos which were delicious. The plate looked beautiful with a generous serving of pickled vegetables. Great salsa too. The truck is clean and tidy and the service was outstanding. A great stop. We’ll be going back .
