Filled with beef juicy, and just the right amount of grease. I love that it retains its crunch throughout. I even tried some green sauce which heat wuss, I actually liked. We all washed it down with guava Jarritos. Using the bathroom is a hoot. The key is attached to a broom. The owner and chica at the counter are laughing at me looking at it. Going in wasn't the easiest and when I got out I told them they should put me on the payroll. Anyway, it's everything "they" say it is and I almost wish I had forced down a second one.

The restaurant is big with plenty of tables to dine. Great service and very helpful with recommendations! Thank you!!!!

The chicken tacos were perfectly smokey. Veggie tacos were bursting with flavor...that elote component was fireeeeee. As for the burrito, add elote and pickled jalapeños and you are sure to have a delicious delight. If you're feeling quesadilla, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the options. Ask for extra green sauce. Personally prefer if it were thinner, so it could be better incorporated into the taco/burrito/quesadilla. Pause your authentic taqueria tastebuds, expose all your creative and unique tastebuds. ENJOY!

If you didn't know, Tacos el Kevin's food truck is stationed at Theo Wirth Lake EVERY DAY ALL SUMMER! This is in my neighborhood where I walk often, and I couldn't be more thrilled to have them here. It is such a huge value add to have a taco truck by the lake, beach, volleyball courts, and for walkers/bikers/picnic-ers! My brother and I came on a bike outing, and we each got three tacos. Their menu was on the more limited side since it is a food truck, but we had no problem finding something we wanted. They were very reasonably priced as well! We got tacos to be on the "lighter" side, but were both eyeing the amazing burritos we saw others get. Next time... The tacos were delish! Great flavor, well prepared meats, and very hot and fresh. I got a few gristly/fatty pieces in my meats, but otherwise delish. We will absolutely be back to support their food truck at Theo Wirth Lake this summer!

Ben and Jerry's free ice cream cone day. After hanging out for half an hour with a live DJ,…read moredancing, and ice cream, we were ready for dinner. Priorities. What are we craving? Burgers? Nah. Pizza? Two maybes - plus the asker. Mexican? Again, two maybes. We start scouring possibilities. And come across a pizzaria + taqueria. Ratings at a very respectable 4.5. Curiosities at full peak. Plus it's close. We've got a winner. No guests inside when we arrive. Parking right out front. Before we even decide on an order, however, people start coming in. Several tables fill up within 10 minutes. Amusingly, the first next group grabbed the one curved booth with my full drink bottle still sitting on the table in the middle of them. They migrated to the semi-booth across the dining area. Clearly, the two most desired seating areas in the house. We ordered birria pizza and horchata - we have a tradition of testing the horchata at every next Mexican restaurant we try. This one was mid - not horrible, not great. Just was. We'd ordered a birria pizza recently, elsewhere. It came out as... a birria taco in pizza layout. Tortilla circle, birria middle, tortilla top. Meh. To be fair, that birria pizza was the only pizza item on that menu, so it made sense that their pizza just wasn't pizza-ing. We were hopeful for a very different experience this time. Especially given the very clear emphasis on pizza on this menu. Then the pizza came. Not only did it look glorious, a bowl of birria dip sat in the middle of the pizza, completing the birria experience. And it was absolutely fantastic. The birria, the ratio, the crust - everything was delicious. Except, as my friend pointed out, the horchata. It can't all be perfect, unfortunately. The pizza was so good that when we wrapped up the leftovers, a strip of end crust went in with the rest of the pie. Speaking of, I'm definitely ready to reheat all of that now - update: Awesome reheated. :) Next visit: Chorizo pineapple jalepeño pizza!

Marsu Pizzeria: The Battle for the Last Slice…read more I walked into Marsu Pizzeria already knowing two things: 1) I was about to have the best pizza of my life. 2) I was going to order way too much food and have no regrets. The place smelled like heaven--garlic, melted cheese, fresh dough. I took a seat, ready to devour a feast. A cheerful employee--let's call him Tony (because let's be real, every good pizzeria has a Tony)--walks up with a confident smile. Tony: "You ready for the best pizza of your life?" Me: "Tony, I've been training for this moment my whole life." I ordered the house special pizza (because if a pizza place has a signature pizza, you ORDER IT), plus some garlic knots, because I respect myself. The food came out fast, hot, fresh, and smelling like a dream. As I'm one slice away from food coma territory, I see it. The last slice. The holy grail. The perfect combination of cheese, sauce, and crispy crust, staring at me like it knows it's about to be devoured. Just as I'm reaching for it, Tony slides by the table, nodding at my plate. Tony: "You gonna finish that?" Me: "...I was planning on it, Tony." Tony: "You sure? I mean, we could put it up for auction. Bidding starts at one garlic knot." Me: "Not happening." Tony: "Alright, but just know... if you don't eat it in the next 30 seconds, I legally get to claim it." Now, I don't know what kind of pizzeria law Tony is operating under, but I wasn't about to test it. I stared him dead in the eyes as I picked up the last slice and took the biggest bite possible. Tony (nodding approvingly): "Good choice. That's the kind of hunger we respect around here." Long story short, Marsu Pizzeria has the best pizza, the best vibes, and employees who will absolutely test your commitment to finishing your food. Final score? 10/10 pizza. 10/10 service. 10/10 threats on my last slice.
