Customer Reviews
The asada tacos were superb! Not too salted yet full of flavor! Especially with the grilled onions, jalapeño, and their salsas! The birria ramen was awesome and the juicy, succulent chunks of beef had me savoring every bite! And last (but not least) the tamales were absolutely delicious!
It's like they took individual bites leftover on plates throughout the day and combined all the meat into what I hesitate to call tacos.customer service left me wondering what I did to offend. Very abrasive attitude and I was kind n patient over the phone trying to cross the language barrier. The hot sauce is so old as to look like slime or ooze that color does not belong anywhere in nature maybe a toxic spill.i will now be throwing my $10 burrito away just being cautious and not wanting to need a stomach pumped later.if I were u i would walk right by this establishment and rather eat a half egg salad lying in the road if given a choice. Just thought because being Sunday our usual 5 or 6 taco trucks were off today but I will avoid this truck like it's giving out the bubonic plague with fre
Let me start with, it's a Taco truck! And it's a very good taco truck!! Can't rate the atmosphere. They are in a parking lot in the great outdoors! The food is like the name says, FANTASTIC!! I've been here several times now and the tacos are tasty!! I've had the Lengua, marinated pork, and steak! This time, I tried a marinated pork burrito!! And I asked them for a hot pepper as well! I received a DELICIOUS burrito packed full of goodness with grilled onions and a Serrano on the side! PERFECT!!
I just took a bite of my Tripa taco. This might be hands down, top 5 when it comes to my favorite tacos in the whole Midwest. I travel a lot for work so I get to try ALOT of tacos as in over a hundred taco spots and this food truck was AMAZING. The lengua and pastor was also REALLY good. The person helping me was so nice and patient too. If this was in Minneapolis where I am from, just know I might be eating this 2x a week.
Had to try this place out as it was highly recommended. I ordered a Asada Burrito $8 and One Taco $2 (pork). Both were good and I enjoyed the two sauces that came with the meal. Quick service and clean place. I did think the price of the burrito was a bit on the high end for the amount of food you get, but I understand that food prices (everywhere) have gone up. I did think the pork taco had more flavors than the burrito. I would come back and try again if I'm in the area. Keep up the great work!
