The cocktails were only 3 stars in my opinion -- the skinny margarita didn't taste very good, not sure why, and the Paloma I had after it wasn't much better. Start by losing the blue salt that they put around the rim which I think is not flavorless. Either do regular salt or none at all. The chips and salsa were fine, The salsa looked a little unusual, cut more coarsely than I'm used to, but it was good. The dinner was solid. I had a combination plate with a crispy taco, tostada, and cheese enchilada. All pretty good and they benefitted from some spice from the bottle of Tapatio sauce on the table. My friend had the arroz con pollo which looked a bit unusual (again, more coarsely cut vegetables and a thinner sauce than I'm used to) but he liked it. Overall, I'd come back anytime I was in Orofino. Though I might get a beer or straight tequila with my meal!

no longer around... :(…read more It's exciting for a town of less than 1,500 people in rural Idaho to have a taco truck! So when Tacos el Michicano came on the scene this summer, they became popular very quickly. This is no "roach coach" -- this is fresh, authentic food (I guess, I mean Spanish-speaking people own and run it). I'm a vegetarian so I usually go for a burrito without meat ($4 w/ or w/out meat) so that's rice, pinto beans, salsa, sour cream, and lettuce. They have spicy chicken, beef, and pork and they used to have chorizo. Very good, tastes homemade. Their salsa is HOT HOT HOT (both red and green), so go easy if you're a gringo. Everything is reasonably priced, except perhaps the soda at $1/can. But you can easily feed a family of 4 for $20. The truck is usually found on the corner of Hwy. 12 and Hill St. in the parking lot of Highland Realty. They were open something like 11a-8p every day except Monday during the summer. During the school year their schedule seems to have gone from "closed" to "sometimes open." That's my biggest complaint: it's hard to know when they will be there. But during the pow-wow they were at the Wa-a'Yas selling Indian Tacos cheaper than the Natives.
