A side of warm, salty tortilla chips further enhanced the experience. It actually tasted like food from old Mexico. And that's a good thing! Clearly way above the dribble served served at the local chain Mexican restaurants. My rating, as always, is based solely on my comparison of this establishment versus other Mexican eateries in the area. It's a food truck so there is no real atmosphere or ambiance to speak of. The truck was clean and the owner/chef was friendly and engaging. The menu is limited. If you see the truck...try it...you'll like it!

Then, there was a tap on my window and I looked over to see a kind man grinning at me. Normally, I do not open house or car doors for just any smiling man. But, this man could not hurt a fly and was nice enough to escort me under his umbrella to the overhang of his taco truck to order my lunch. I told the staff that I want tacos, but I only have $6.50 (cash only), they nodded and a woman proceeded to cook up some food. It became: 2 fajita tacos on corn tortillas $1.75 each 2 chicken tacos on corn tortillas $1.50 each Both served with the usual chopped raw onion and cilantro. These did not come with a side of lime, and the green chili sauce was most interesting... The Tacos el Indio truck has by the far the most unique and homemade tasting tacos and chili sauce that I have had so far. I watched as the woman lightly dipped each of the corn shells into melted lard and placed all ingredients onto a large iron griddle. This gave the shells a delicious char of black and brown spots and toasty/nutty taste. The chicken was all white meat that was shredded like rotisserie chicken style. The cook seared the shredded meat on the griddle and sprinkled lemon pepper on it. It actually still tasted like a taco with the toppings and the chili sauce, but just a little more interesting. The fajita beef was cut into long thin strips (about 4 inches) and seared just like the chicken on the griddle. The meat was tough and somewhat buttery, like cheaper cuts of beef can taste. I will usually use a marinade to prevent this sort of taste. The green chili sauce was runny, but the ingredients were pureed into a smooth liquid that consisted of: green chili, avocado, lime, cilantro, salt, and beer. I actually think that the main ingredient was beer. It was delicious! But, since it was so runny, I had some trouble keeping it on the taco. Now I am at work, hoping that my breath does not wreak of beer from the sauce. After I received my food, to take back to work to eat, the man was nice enough again to escort me back to my car with the umbrella in hand. I told him that I will see him again soon, and I will, but hopefully in nicer weather and with people accompanying me. They have a large list of other items; tortas, sopas, burritos, menudo. There were no prices posted and I would have loved to sneak a photo of the menu. I did not see any bottles sodas for sale, but it does say that they have aguas frescas on the menu, and lists horchata as one of them. It is really hard to get photos of the trucks, because everyone is so paranoid. It is only two buildings North of Taqueria Mi Rancho, but they are still the busiest I have seen. They are in the parking lot of "Vessels Into Honour" ministries. There is a listing for a Tacos el Indio at another address on Yelp, but I cannot locate a business of that name under the address that is on the listing.

This is by far the cleanest and newest taco truck that I have been to. The inside is brightly lit,…read moresanitized, and pristine white. The food here is actually cooked, pan fried, fresh as you order. Not sitting in a steamer all day like many of the trucks in the area. I love the name of the stall and the nice woman that runs it. They even have business cards! All of the tacos here are $1.50 each. You have your choice of pastor (pan fried tiny bits of pork), pollo (pan fried minced chicken), asada (pan fried minced beef), carnitas (shredded and slow cooked pork), and chorizo (ground pork sausage). Every business serves it differently. If you are new to authentic tacos, then I recommend this place as your first try. Mostly because the tacos here do not have as much exotic tasting seasonings as other places. By spice, I am referring to cumin, paprika, garlic, and hot pepper flakes cooked with the actual meats. Since everything is cooked fresh to order, I recommend calling ahead to place your order 941-321-5718. The tacos here come with a side of green chili salsa and wedges of lime on the side, and cilantro and chopped onion on top. The green salsa is so far the spiciest I have had, and can be mouth numbing, so try a little at first. I ordered 2 asada on corn tortillas and 2 chorizo on corn tortillas. The asada steak had minimal fat, was finely chopped, and very tender. However, the meat was pan fried with very little seasoning, so it was kind of bland. I added salt, a ton of green salsa, and a whole lime wedge to make it tasty. However, the chorizo was amazing. It was nice and salty with a bit and a hint of tang to it. The chorizo is by far my favorite. They carry many drink and soda options, my favorite being apple soda. The Tortas (sandwich) are $6.00, Sope $3.50, Tostada $5.00, Burrito $5.00, and Quesadilla $4.00. I will definitely be coming back, and bringing mostly people that have never tried taco trucks before because this is a great introduction. If you are driving down State Road 70, it is behind the Dollar General on 15th Street. They are open everyday of the week 11:00AM-9:00PM, and stay open until 11:00PM on Friday and Saturday nights.

Tacos that you only dream of come out of this trailer. Some people make fun of or are scared of food sold from trailers, but I'm telling you this is some of the best street food to be had. The fact that it comes out of a wagon should not scare you off. think on this, you can spend $10 at a "taco" chain down the road, that serves up cardboard shells they like to call tortillas, or you can spend $5 at La Cholita and have amazing tacos that make your tongue sing, your mouth rejoice, and your tummy happy. The spicy pork tacos are the best, just a little onion and cilantro on a couple of warm tortillas, green salsa and lime wedges. Heaven on a plate. The people who work here are friendly and know what they are doing.

They are pretty much always open, even on New Years Day. The truck appears to be a permanent installation on the left of the Samoset Meat Market. On 15th Street, there are at least 8-15 tacos trucks open for lunch on weekdays. In my opinion, this is the highest concentration of taco food trucks in Tampa Bay. The tacos at this specific location are $1.50 each for the Mexican style tacos, strictly onion, cilantro, and lime. Any more toppings than that and you are getting into gringo territory and you might as well go to Taco Bell at that point. There is also a photo menu posted on the side of the truck, and they even have hamburgers so don't be scared. My favorite meat of choice is the pastor, but you might be limited to whatever meats they have at any given time. There is usually a lunch special posted (5 tacos and a drink for $6.00). I am a fatty and I eat about three tacos in one sitting, so five tacos may be pushing it for most people. When the owner asks you if you want spicy sauce or house sauce, say yes. It comes on the side, and you can thank me later.

Albeit this visit was for the second purpose, Pilot House seemed like the perfect spot to stop in my cargo pants and work shirt :) I enjoyed a cold brew coffee (gotta have that caffeine for the drive back), bacon cheeseburger and fries. The lettuce & tomato tasted fresh, and they customized the onions away. The cheese was only American cheese and the bacon had a nice crisp, plus I added bbq sauce. Besides pretty solid beachfront burgers, Pilot House doubles as a souvenir shop with Venice FL branded merch such as koozies and sweatshirts when you want to bring gifts for the folks back home. The building itself is pretty cool with its high pitched concrete shell roof (yes I look at those things). Plus, again, it's steps from the beach and next to free city parking.
