“ I thought I was given the wrong directions, but upon arriving, when I saw the line I knew I was in the right spot. A truck in the parking lot of a liquor store! There for all the right reasons, TACOS!! No reason to go inside, stay in the parking lot... all items great ... some hotter than others! ”
“ Just went to the brick Blvd location. I ordered quesabirria tacos, which are not on the menu but you can ask for them, and they were soooo good! I thought it was a lil pricey for just 2, but actually they were big, hearty tacos. I'll definitely order them again. I should've gone a little lighter on the salsa tho, cuz it was SPICY! ”
“ They have amazing Tacos! My go to spot! Never disappoints! $4 a taco is a little pricey, I remember when they used to be $2 each, I don’t go as often bc of price increases but honestly $4 each is just so worth it! I go whenever I can. 10/10 recommend! ”
“ Ordered tacos and elote. Tacos are great! Had 3 different kinds and all were great! Elote? Did they mean corn on the cob. Not worth 5$ ”
“ This is a Food Truck, with the normal limitations of this type of food vendor. Place your order and wait patiently. They are usually quite fast to get your order ready. Don’t fully close your windows so you can hear them calling your name. Be careful with the spicy tacos, they really are HOT! Carne Asada and Al Pastor no son picosos. Buen Provecho!! ”
