wonderful people running a decent food truck. more seating is actually available outside by the back of the gas station. my favorite is al pastor tacos fast service and they have taco Tuesdays ! always great people.. I recently tried the fried enchiladas! u can park in the gas station to access the truck. drinks r purchased from the gas station

No-frill, really good taco truck with good price. Juicy, nicely flavored meats, great tomatillo sauce, crispy tortillas, and really good flavor all around. Probably the best in the area, and we have eaten a lot around here (save your money by not going to chido taco). Haven't had anything under average so far. They serve breakfast menu from 6 - 10am, and normal menu from 10am-closed. Also, don't shy away from their specials, which unfortunately weren't listed on their website (likewise with breakfast menu). Just go there to order directly, the waiting time is very short. We've tried all of their tacos, huaraches, torta el Calentano, and will try the breakfast soon. They have a small cozy seating area behind the truck.

Best tacos in Cary! Wonderful food made by wonderful folks. Check them out at the corner of High House and Old Apex.

Tried this taco truck while visiting Cary. It is located right next to a gas station. We tried tacos, quesadillas and gorditas. Carne assda tacos, tacos de chicharron and gorditas were good. Quesadillas are overpriced. We also tried jamaica (hibiscus) water and it was good. Service is a little slow but everyone was polite.
